After smoking a cigarette, Li Rui got up and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

When he came back, a strong sense of sleepiness struck, and he fell on the bed and hugged Xiaohong, just about to close his eyes, but at this time Xiaohong moved, and seemed to have woken up.

"Are you awake?"

"Hmm." Xiaohong replied softly, and then turned back to hug him, and her soft lips touched his face a few times.

"Does it still hurt?" Li Rui smiled and hugged her tightly.

"Well, it hurt a little bit just now, but it's better now." Xiaohong looked at Li Rui without blinking, and replied very seriously. Her beautiful eyes are full of endless love and flickering tears, and women sometimes always vent their inexplicable emotions inadvertently, maybe as long as lovers feel each other's love, it is always the same.

Li Rui couldn't stand Xiaohong looking at herself so affectionately, let go of her arms, and at the same time gently broke free from her embrace, sat up from the bed, took the cigarette on the bedside table and lit another cigarette. Xiaohong also sat up, snuggled up to Li Rui's side, thoughtfully held the ashtray in her hand, and said, "Are you addicted to smoking?" Smoking too much is not good for your health. ”

Li Rui looked at the cigarette in his hand and said with a smile: "I'm used to it." ”

"I don't think it now, but I'll know it when I'm old. Just like my mother, I suffered a lot when I was young, and now I am old and have a lot of problems. ”

"By the way, how's your mother's illness?" Li Rui asked.

"I've had surgery, and now I'm recuperating at home, and I have to go to the hospital for a follow-up every month." Speaking of her mother's illness, Xiaohong's face showed a trace of sadness.

"Oh, that must be a lot of medical expenses every month, right?"

"It's a lot, but I finally have a stable job now, and Mr. Shen said that in the future, I will be paid a salary of 1,000 yuan a month, which should be about the same." Xiaohong nodded.

Li Rui remembered the worn-out old-fashioned bra she saw in the bathroom just now, and the T-shirt she was wearing before was also cheap, and it seemed that she had saved up the money to treat her mother. It's also for the original 10,000 yuan...... What a filial child! Li Rui thought about it and took the bag, took out a card from it, which was given to him by Zhao Wenlong a few days ago, saying that it was the first dividend of the distillery, and there were 50,000 yuan in it, and handed it to her: "You take this money, give it to your mother for medical treatment, and buy some clothes for yourself." ”

"I don't want it." Xiaohong didn't take the card in Li Rui's hand, and said shyly: "Mr. Shen said, as long as I can accompany you well, the 10,000 yuan I took before will be written off, and I will be given a salary increase in the future, and my mother's money for medical treatment will be enough." Besides, you gave me a lot of money last time, and I haven't paid you back yet. ”

Li Rui's heart couldn't help twitching, this girl is really simple, those women in his previous life, which one would be disgusted with giving too much money, and he didn't try the original bud, that starting from six figures, thinking of the hearty and faint blood stains on the sheets just now, Li Rui pulled her hand and stuffed the card into her hand, "This is what I gave, no matter how you say that you are now my woman, I don't want to watch my women suffer and be poor, take it!" The password is six sixes. I'm going to be angry if you don't want me anymore. ”

Xiaohong looked at Li Rui's face, and then reluctantly took the card in her hand, Li Rui could see that she was indeed not pretending, smiled and asked, "I don't know your name yet?" Is it really called Xiaohong? How old are you for a few years? ”

Xiaohong nodded and said, "My name is Su Xiaohong, and I am exactly twenty for the New Year." ”

"How many years have you been reading? What do you do at Shen Weidong? ”

"I graduated from high school, and now Mr. Shen has asked me to work as the deputy director of the office in the company." Su Xiaohong said.

Li Rui is a little funny, Shen Weidong is a coal digger, except for the mine, he doesn't have a serious office location, and he actually made a deputy director of the office.

"So you're usually in the mine?"

"Yes, there's nothing else to do, it's just that someone is here to help with the reception."

Li Rui frowned, he didn't want his woman to do this kind of hospitality work, although he also knew that if he took Su Xiaohong today, Shen Weidong would definitely be properly settled, and he would not let her be touched by other men again, but he was always a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"Do you have any other siblings besides your parents?" Li Rui then asked, talking to Su Xiaohong, the original sleepiness was gone, and he simply understood her situation, he didn't want to leave a woman who didn't know the details by his side, unless it was a one-night stand.

Su Xiaohong shook her head and said with a gloomy expression: "No, my parents are just my daughter." Saying that, she hesitated a little, looked at Li Rui and said: "Actually, I was adopted, I was abandoned since I was born, and it happened that my father went to the town to catch the market, and he saw that I was pitiful, and they didn't have children at that time, so they took me home." ”

"So how do you know? What did your parents tell you? Li Rui said strangely, generally like a adopted child, adoptive parents rarely tell the child the truth.

"From a small village, the children laughed at it as a wild child, a wild seed, and the adults also pointed fingers behind their backs, and then they became sensible, so I asked my parents, and my mother told me. In the past, my parents couldn't give birth to children, and they were always bullied in the village, so I had a wish since I was a child that they must tell them about good days. I never thought that I had just graduated from high school, my mother fell ill, and my father was also old, and he couldn't do a lot of work, so I ran out of my hometown with others to work, and I worked as a waiter in Nanqiao County for a period of time, but the salary was very small, and it was not enough for my mother to treat her illness...... It's also fortunate that I met you, Brother Li, otherwise my mother wouldn't have the money to open the knife until now. My mother had stomach cancer, and the doctor said that it was detected early, and there was still a way to save it, but if it really dragged on until now, it could not be saved. Su Xiaohong said 1510, her voice choked when she talked about sadness, she looked very ashamed when she talked about accompanying the wine, and finally she was full of joy when she met Li Rui.

Li Rui sighed, stretched out his hand to take her into his arms, and comforted: "Okay, everything will be fine in the future." ”

Su Xiaohong put her face on Li Rui's chest and sobbed in a low voice, "Brother Li, thank you." ”

The two hugged each other quietly, Li Rui thought for a while and said, "Since you graduated from high school, you might as well study again, learn an accounting or something, take a certificate, and have a skill in the future." ”

Su Xiaohong said with a difficult face: "Of course this is good, but I am afraid that it will affect my current work, and it is not easy to come out of the mine once." ”

Li Rui patted her arm with a smile and said, "It's okay, I'll help you tell Shen Weidong about this, it's no problem." ”

Su Xiaohong suddenly showed a bright smile, "Brother Li, you are so good!" She also wants to learn a skill, Shen Weidong is so stammering with the man next to her, there is naturally no problem with him talking.

At dawn the next day, Li Rui woke up and looked at the time that it was almost seven o'clock, and Shen Weidong made an appointment to return to the county seat at half past seven, Su Xiaohong next to him was still sleeping very soundly, Li Rui couldn't bear to wake her up, and gently pulled out her arm from her arms, but she still woke up, and saw that Li Rui was about to get up, so she hurriedly sat up, endured the tearing pain in her lower body and got up to serve him.

Li Rui hurriedly pressed her, "Don't move, lie on the bed and rest." Your boss will go back to the county seat with me later, you can rest here, and I will go down and ask the waiter to bring breakfast directly to the room. ”

After the two chatted last night, Li Rui came again on a whim, and it could be seen that Su Xiaohong, who had just experienced the pain of breaking the melon, was also trying her best to flatter, and when she finally pulled it out, not only was there blood, but she was already swollen.

Su Xiaohong shrunk in the quilt and nodded shyly, Li Rui kissed her face with a smile, he hesitated a little when he got dressed and got up, but he still opened his mouth to ask Su Xiaohong about her menstrual period, Su Xiaohong endured shyness and told him that her menstrual period had just passed the day before yesterday. Li Rui relieved herself, because it was the first time for her, and she didn't take any safety measures last night, so don't make other people's stomachs bigger like she did in Yanda before, and it will be troublesome.

After hastily eating breakfast in the hotel restaurant and walking out of the door, Shen Weidong was already waiting at the gate, seeing Li Rui's refreshed appearance, he smiled and said: "I originally thought you wouldn't be able to get up, but I didn't expect it to be quite punctual." ”

"You guy!" Li Rui punched him in the shoulder socket, and everyone knew that there were some things that didn't need to be said at all.

After getting in the car, Li Rui told Shen Weidong about Su Xiaohong's desire to study, of course Shen Weidong had no problem, he now wished that Li Rui could be good with Su Xiaohong, and hurriedly said: "This thing is easy to do, I'll ask her what she means, see what major she likes, I happen to have acquaintances over there, it's a very convenient thing." ”

"Thank you." Li Rui nodded.

"Thank me for what! Su Xiaohong is also an employee of my company. As he spoke, Shen Weidong lowered his voice and said to Li Rui: "I have inquired about her situation clearly, her hometown is in the mountains of Shihu County, she is the only one in the family, her parents are also honest people, and it is true that her mother is sick." She has me watching her in the company, so you can rest assured. ”

Listening to Shen Weidong's meaning to regard Su Xiaohong as a link with him to a higher level, Li Rui knew that this was also a very common thing, officials and businessmen, officials and businessmen, officials and businessmen colluded, except for money, it was a woman, although he was not worried about Shen Weidong's other purpose, but this feeling made him uncomfortable. However, Su Xiaohong's matter has to be discussed in the long run, although she is already her own woman, the two sides still need to have a process of further communication and understanding.
