Wei Xiaoshuang is a poor man.

There is an old father in the family, who is said to be old, but in fact he is only in his forties and less than fifty, but he looks like he is already sixty or seventy years old. The face is full of wrinkles, and the hair is a little gray, all because of the hard life and boiling. Wei Xiaoshuang also has a younger brother who is still in junior high school. When her mother gave birth to her brother, she was bleeding profusely and died.

Wei Xiaoshuang and his younger brother are five years apart. And in the past five years, in fact, her mother and father have not been idle, almost every year and a half, they have to give birth to one, but they are all female babies, so they give them away, and throw them away.

But in the countryside, no one will say cruel, will say inhumane. In their opinion, I just want a son, and I can't afford to raise so many daughters without a son, so I have to deal with it.

The conditions at home in the countryside are not good, so having children in this way will inevitably ruin your health. So when she gave birth to her sixth child, Wei Xiaoshuang's mother's body finally couldn't support it, and with hemorrhage, she died not long after giving birth.

Even her younger brother grew up eating Baijia milk.

Many people in the countryside have children every year, and Wei Xiaoshuang's father is holding the child, and each family eats a few mouthfuls of milk. Fortunately, the child was easy to feed, and he grew up hungry and hungry.

When the child was a little older, Wei Zhentao left his sister and brother to work. There is no way, the two acres of land at home can't afford to support two children.

So since she was six years old, Wei Xiaoshuang actually began to take care of her younger brother, both as an older sister and as a mother, you know, she is also a six-year-old child.

Fortunately, Wei Xiaoshuang is also a competitive child, maybe because of the rare opportunity, or because she understands the truth that knowledge changes fate, she has been the first in the school since she was a child, and the junior high school gave her free fees, and there are scholarships in high school, and she doesn't want to spend money at home. Otherwise, she wouldn't have had a chance to go to school.

When she arrived at university, because she went to a normal college, she even had a surplus bonus to subsidize her family.

When she graduated, many schools wanted her to teach, and even her alma mater asked if she would like to stay and teach.

However, when she thought of her old father and her younger brother at home, she still gave up many opportunities that were very good in the eyes of others and returned to her hometown to become a teacher in the dilapidated elementary school.

It's okay to be like this, receiving a salary every month, and even the people in the village say that Wei Zhentao is really a blessing, and he has finally come to an end all these years.

Although the salary of primary school is not high, she can be regarded as the introduction of talents, the government has subsidies, and after working for two years, Wei Xiaoshuang also demolished the two crumbling earthen houses in his hometown and built two brick houses, Wei Zhentao was drunk that day, holding Wei Xiaoshuang's hand and crying and saying some nonsense.

Wei Xiaoshuang knew that Wei Zhentao was happy.

However, the sky has no eyes. Wei Zhentao went to work in the coal mine a few years ago, not to mention the low salary, the conditions were very poor, and he had lung problems in the past few years.

Last week, Wei Zhentao suddenly had trouble breathing, and the town health center checked and said that he couldn't see it, so he should go to the county hospital to have a look.

Wei Xiaoshuang took Wei Zhentao and almost all of the family's money to the county seat, but he never thought that just after leaving the station, the money in the bag was stolen, and there was another gap in the bag, which was cut by a sharp blade.

At that moment, Wei Xiaoshuang, who has always been strong and optimistic, felt that the sky had fallen for the first time. She sat on the side of the road with her father in her arms, looking at the crowded streets, and her eyes gradually lost their brightness.

Even when she was taken to the hospital by Yang Yang, she didn't react, just followed the person mechanically. It wasn't until Yang Yang went through all the formalities and Wei Zhentao, who was lying on the hospital bed, kept calling her name that Wei Xiaoshuang came back to his senses.

Alas, the blow was too big for her. Not because the money was stolen, not because her father was sick, but when she saw hope, God took everything away from her. Under the triple blow, it is no wonder that Wei Xiaoshuang has a psychological breakdown.

"Shuang'er, let's get out of the hospital. ”

Wei Zhentao looked at Wei Xiaoshuang, who was a little distracted, and asked. He thought that Wei Xiaoshuang was really worried about the medical expenses. Wei Zhentao doesn't know anything, he spends a lot of money every day for hospitalization and medicine, not to mention that their current money is borrowed by others. Although Yang Yang came a few times, he said not to worry about money, but in the eyes of a rural man like Wei Zhentao, he didn't spend his own money, otherwise he was not sure, and he was still distressed, which was all to be repaid. I know this disease in my heart, and I can't die for a while. After a few more years, watching my daughter get married and watching my son grow up, I will be down-to-earth. If I can see my son get married and have children, then I will be satisfied in this life.

Wei Xiaoshuang turned his head to look at Wei Zhentao, got up to help him cover the quilt, and said, "Don't worry, the doctor said it will be a few more days." ”

Wei Zhentao sighed: "Shuang'er, it's all Daddy's useless, dragging you down." Dad's body is fine, you see I'm not doing well now, I can pick up a hundred catties of food. Saying that, Wei Zhentao had to get out of bed and show off his healthy body.

"Dad! Listen to me. You can rest assured. ”

"Hey, it's just bitter for you. ”

Wei Xiaoshuang held Wei Zhentao down, picked up the thermos and said, "Don't move, I'll go get a pot of water." ”

As soon as he walked out of the door, Wei Xiaoshuang's tears fell.

Growing up, I didn't have my mother's care, and my father was a big man, and I had to take care of my younger brother. Whether it's a scholarship or a college work-study, I can't afford to spend a penny of my money, and I subsidize my family.

Twenty years old, although she looks good, few people dare to marry her, because they all know that after marrying her, they have to take care of her family.

While sipping hot water, I thought back to the events of the past few days.

She asked, and in just a few days, Yang Yang had already deposited 5,000 yuan in the hospital. The cost of hospitalization is not expensive, but the medicine is expensive. It is said that there are several imported medicines.

Of course, the 5,000 yuan has not been used up yet, and this is already Wei Xiaoshuang's salary for more than half a year, and I don't know how many days my father will be hospitalized and how much medicine he will have to take.

Yang Yang, it's really thanks to him these days.

The water was full, Wei Xiaoshuang thought as he walked with a thermos bottle. In the past few days of contact, Wei Xiaoshuang felt that Yang Yang was a good person, and even looked a little stupid. He doesn't speak much, but he's a careful person. came to see his father every day, of course, Wei Xiaoshuang is not a fool, and he also knows from Yang Yang's twisted and pinched appearance that he came to see Wei Zhentao is fake, and he comes to see that he is real.

Like yourself? Wei Xiaoshuang didn't dare to think that he was a dirty village girl, and the conditions were not good, but he was really grateful to him. If there was no Yang Yang, Wei Xiaoshuang really didn't know what he would do.

Walking to the ward, Wei Zhentao's voice came: "Hey, Xiao Yang, you said you would come, what else to buy, you see that you haven't eaten everything you have bought in the past few days, isn't this a waste of money!"

Wei Xiaoshuang slowed down until Yang Yang came.

Inside, Yang Yang said: "Uncle, it's all worthless food, I'm afraid you won't have an appetite these days, these fruits are very fresh, you eat more." ”

Hey, this Yang Yang can really speak, it's not like he looked wooden a few days ago.

"We countrymen, that's so squeamish, we have white rice and meat every day, and we don't have an appetite for anything. I couldn't eat meat once a year, but now life is really good. ”

Well, how did my dad become so eloquent. Wei Xiaoshuang couldn't help but lean against the door and secretly listened to the two inside.

"Wei, where is Wei Xiaoshuang, why isn't she here?"

"Oh, Shuang'er said to go and turn on the water, it's been a while, and I should be back soon. Sit, you sit, sit on the bed. Xiao Yang, thank you so much these days, if it weren't for you, I really don't know what to do. Shuang'er is sensible, but girls are not as knowledgeable as men. Still, if you want me to say that we're both good. I went to college and was educated. It's my appearance that drags her down, she's twenty years old, and she doesn't have a partner yet? What about Xiao Yang, how old are you, do you have a partner?"

This, dad, what is this going to do. Wei Xiaoshuang originally wanted to hear more, but then hurriedly entered the house and interrupted Wei Zhentao's words.

"Dad, I'm back. ”

I saw Wei Zhentao half-lying, Yang Yang sat on the edge of the bed and gave Wei Zhentao a banana, and on the stool where Wei Xiaoshuang was sitting was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy.

As soon as she spoke, all three of them turned their heads to look at Wei Xiaoshuang.
