Quiet nights are always the time for most people to rest, but there are also many workers who insist on working diligently in their posts to make a living. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In a 24-hour convenience store on the outskirts of Xingcheng in Nanyang Province, a man in ordinary work clothes sits behind the cash register, boredly playing with his black-screen mobile phone.

Zhou Kundi, 26, is the only night shift worker in a convenience store.

A few years ago, he didn't like to study since he was a child, because he wanted to make money, after graduating from junior high school, he followed the people from the same village into the factory, although life was a little difficult, but there was still a part of the surplus, but he was more anxious to get rid of the status quo.

For as long as he can remember, his father did not work outside the home because of a disabled leg, and in his memory, his father scolded his mother through alcohol, in addition to alcoholism.

In order to shoulder the burden of the whole family, my mother worked odd jobs without regrets, raising chickens, helping people sweep the floor, selling vegetables in the market, and getting up early every day to work in the dark, just to earn a few hundred yuan a month to support the family.

Zhou Kunbi blames his father, but he understands that his father is using alcohol to kill his sorrows; Zhou Kunbi feels sorry for his mother and works hard for this almost broken family.

The life of a part-time job is not easy: I do chores, follow the car, transport cement every day, and after a tiring day, I go to bed after eating, and I have to refresh myself when I wake up and repeat the work of the previous day. However, the surplus of income per month is only a few hundred yuan, so he is anxious.

When talking to three other friends about this, they suggested that he should rob him.

Zhou Kunbi did not object, and after the four of them were ready, he successfully snatched the bags of the two female netizens, which contained a mobile phone, ID card, umbrella and now 91.5 yuan.

However, Skynet was restored and not leaked, and not long after the crime, Zhou Kundi, who had not gone out for two days, learned that the other three had been arrested, and only he had not been found yet.

Zhou Kunbi panicked, the more he thought about it, the more scared he became, took a few clothes, deliberately took a headshot of his mother with a red background, and left the factory in a hurry.

On the way, he called his mother at home, saying that he was going out to work and was sweeping the factory for his mother, who didn't ask much, but just instructed: Work hard, don't offend people, and endure hardship!

I didn't expect this part, it's been 4 years.

During this period, Zhou Kundi has traveled to many cities, he has been wandering in some places with few people to find a job for household registration, and from time to time he will transfer the accumulated money to his mother's bank card, but he has never dared to go back to his hometown to visit his parents.

More than a year ago, Zhou Kundi successfully became a night shift staff at this convenience store, and he has been diligent, so that the boss is very satisfied with him, and he has been given a salary increase twice in a year, which makes Zhou Kunbi excited and more concerned about this job that can make his life better with his father and mother.

Because the store stipulates that he can't play with his mobile phone during work, even though no one visits or supervises him in the middle of the night, Zhou Kundi still abides by the rules, and the only thing that can accompany him through the long night is the radio station.

"Welcome everyone to listen to tonight's "A Thousand Miles for a Good Night", I am the host He Xiao!" came a very magnetic male voice from the speaker.

"It's Father's Day in the near future, and today, I want to talk to our audience about parents. ”

"In fact, life is a very long series, and every family has its own one. Every night, behind every window, there is a family playing out their own story. ”

But the plot of each story is generally very bland, so plain that it almost makes people feel that there are ups and downs in between, and the family goes through firewood, rice, oil and salt together, and watches time rush past each other. ”

"Then it wasn't until one day in the future that we looked back at our parents, and our hair didn't know when it started, and it was still gray, and we suddenly realized that our parents had gone so far with us unconsciously, and they were still thinking about protecting themselves all the time, but they ignored that they now need our care. ”

"So, after our seemingly busy schedule, please take some time out of our time with our parents, even if it's a phone call. ”

"Tonight, we give this song to you who are listening to our show, and to your parents who think of you at this moment. ”

He Xiao's magnetic voice came out of the speaker in a relaxed and intonate manner, dispelling the loneliness of the night, and then a faint piano sound sounded, and a faint singing.

The old tree in front of the door grows new shoots

The dead trees in the courtyard bloomed again

Half survived a lot of words

Hidden in a head full of gray hair

……

The gentle melody slowly flowed into Zhou Kundi's heart, making him freeze there in a daze, and involuntarily closed his eyes.

Listen, listen, and tears welled up.

A song poked his tears, and he had never cried like this since he was a child.

In the convenience store of more than 30 square meters, Zhou Kundi's crying was filled, and his hands trembled and he took out a yellowed photo of his mother from his wallet, and looked at it with tears in his eyes.

He remembered his poor home, his disabled father, and his hard-working mother, and he knew that he had been away for so many years, although he didn't say it, but his parents must have known that his situation was not good, and he was afraid of himself every day.

In the past four years, he has not been back to reunite with his father and mother, and he doesn't know how the two elders are doing, but he can hear the exhaustion in his mother's voice from the phone.

At this moment, how he hopes to be able to return to the two elders and call his parents in person.

moved, so that Zhou Kundi, who had been scared and escaped for four years, finally mustered up the courage.

Turning himself in, this is something he has never dared to think about and has never thought about.

But he now knows that if he doesn't go back, his parents will be really old, and maybe, maybe it will be too late to see the last face, which is an unacceptable result for him.

The time for a song passed quickly, and He Xiao's voice sounded in the speaker again.

"Okay, a very nice and very touching song, I hope all parents in the world are healthy and healthy, and all families are harmonious and beautiful. Let's take a call from a listener. ”

"Hello!"

"Hello, host. ”

The voice of the audience who came out of the speaker was Zhou Kundi's crying voice that was still a little choked.

"Listener, it sounds like you're not in a good mood right now, do you have anything that you don't like to share with me and the audience in front of the radio?"

"Well, in fact, there are some things that I have been hiding in my heart for four years, four years ago, because of impulsiveness, I did a disciplinary thing, all the time, I have been absconding, because I am afraid, absconding, I have not met the two elders of the family for four years, the song I played just now, let me feel a lot, so that I can finally muster up the courage to face that incident. This call, I hope to repent of my crimes and strengthen my belief in surrendering. ”

He Xiao seemed to be frightened by the content of the call, but he still reacted quickly with good hosting skills.

"As long as we have a good heart, we believe that everything will be better, so I believe that you and your parents will be fine in the future, come on!"

"Yes, thank you!"

"Is there anything I can do to help you with this call? Or can you tell us your wishes and see if our audience can help you. ”

"If I can, I hope the host can play that song again, I really want to take a sip of my mother's soup now, and I really want to take a family photo. ”

Zhou Kundi almost whispered into the mobile phone, and his words were clearly transmitted from the speaker, so that He Xiao and the listeners who were listening to the program of this channel seemed to see a prodigal son who repented for the past.

"I believe that your wish will also come true, "Where Has Time Gone" is sent to you, I hope you and your parents can be reunited as soon as possible. ”

"Thank you!"

A soft melody continued to float out of the radio, plucking Zhou Kunpai's heartstrings, as well as the heartstrings of other listeners.
