The next day, Xiuqin found the cement factory where Nie Guangrong worked through the hospitalization registration filled in by Nie Guangrong, and she also held a pennant in her hand. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Nie Guangrong didn't pay attention, he only had bags of cement in his eyes, and it wasn't until the workers surrounded him that Nie Guangrong put down the work in his hand and noticed the girl who had been standing for a long time. Xiuqin sent the pennant and stuffed an envelope to Nie Guangrong, and before Nie Guangrong could react, Xiuqin ran away. Nie Guangrong opened the envelope, which contained a lot of change, coins and banknotes, which together happened to be the cost of surgery and hospitalization. Nie Guangrong wanted to chase after him and return the money to Xiuqin, but he ran far away and found no trace. The pennant was asked to leave by the manager of the cement plant, saying that it was going to be hung on the glorious wall of the factory for the whole factory to learn, and the newspaper should be asked to report Nie Guangrong's deeds. A week later, Nie Guangrong really saw the newspaper, and the title was: Our city's cement factory is well educated, and the employees cultivated are morally noble, conscientious enterprises, and produce conscientious cement. In the content of the report, Nie Guangrong's rescue only mentioned one sentence, which is full of how the cement plant carries out learning and education, how good the cement quality is, and so on. Nie Guangrong smiled and didn't care.

In fact, in the past two days, Nie Guangrong has always wanted to go, but considering the poor family conditions of the old man, he thinks that as long as he does not go, the old man will not find himself, and if he can't find himself, he will not be able to repay the medical expenses, and if he does not repay the medical expenses, the old man can save money, so as to reduce the guilt of the elderly because of the burden on the family because of the hospitalization money. But now, the medical expenses have been returned to Nie Guangrong, since the money has been repaid, Nie Guangrong has no worries, however, Nie Guangrong doesn't want this money, although the money itself is his own money, but Nie Guangrong has already regarded this money as the old man's money, the money for the old man's hospitalization, and the antidote money to prevent the old man from feeling guilty and burdened with the weight of life, so even if Nie Guangrong took the money that was his own, he felt that this money could not be carried in his pocket like this, and he should do something for the old man. Since then, Nie Guangrong goes to see the old man every day, even if the old man is discharged from the hospital, Nie Guangrong goes to the old man's house every day, chats with the old man, washes and cooks for the old man, because Xiuqin works as a dishwasher in the restaurant, usually has to get off work at nine o'clock in the evening, Nie Guangrong waited until Xiuqin came home, before leaving the old man, and slowly Nie Guangrong regarded the old man as a relative, and relied on the spirit in the city.

One day, Nie Guangrong stayed at the old man's house until more than ten o'clock in the evening, but Xiuqin hadn't come home yet, the old man looked at his watch from time to time, but he was more anxious than anyone else, the old man lay on the bed, tossed and turned, and sat up again after a while, trembling and sweating, it could be seen that the old man was scared, 20 years ago, it was also evening, and his daughter-in-law did not go home, this farewell, he could not come back for the rest of his life, he was afraid of the recurrence of the tragedy, and he could not accept the recurrence of the tragedy. Nie Guangrong has been persuading the old man to relax and not be afraid, his granddaughter will be back in a while. The old man nodded heavily, his eyes wide. Until half past ten, the old man couldn't help it and asked Nie Guangrong to go to the hotel where his granddaughter worked to have a look.

The hotel was very close to the old man's house, and when he was far away from the hotel, Nie Guangrong saw Xiuqin, and his hanging heart finally relaxed. When she got closer, opposite Xiuqin, there was a middle-aged woman standing pointing at her, the woman was dancing with her hands, tiptoeing, her head was tilted up, and her index finger was against Xiuqin's head, as if she was about to be executed, she didn't know what to shout in her mouth, and her spit was flying. Nie Guangrong walked into the hotel, only to hear the woman scolding: "You have a mother's life and no mother's things, you can't even brush a bowl well, what else can you do, accompany your dying grandfather at home, my bowl is 10 yuan a piece, you don't pay attention, you dropped a bowl of bowls, a whole 20 bowls, little mongrel, that's 200 yuan?" What do you pay? Go out and sell it? No one clicks on you as a chicken......" Before the words fell, Nie Guangrong slapped him: "You are a woman, I shouldn't have beaten you, this slap is to educate you for your parents, you have no virtue in your mouth, and slapping you is cheaper for you." With that, he walked out of the hotel with Xiuqin. Xiuqin was very moved, this is the first time that someone has been angry for herself, a girl who has lacked father's love since she was a child doesn't know what edges and corners and temper are, and she is used to it, despite suffering a lot of grievances. The Nie Guangrong in front of him was incomparably tall, and the slap he slapped out of the unsatisfactory that had been accumulated in his heart for many years, and fanned out an unprecedented backbone. And Nie Guangrong gave this slap a new meaning, he believes that this is not simply himself beating others, but the rural people beating the city people, how dare the rural people beat the city people, this is a declaration of war? Is it an uprising? It's not easy for everyone, they have their own backbone when they fan out, but they don't have the backbone of others, and they don't have the backbone of the people in the city. If you don't slap this palm, you can't watch Xiuqin get angry, Xiuqin is angry with the poor, it is the rich who makes the poor angry, and the poor should endure this breath. It was a simple slap in the face, but Nie Guangrong was mentioned to the height of the countryside and the city, the poor and the rich, it is enough to see that the perennial depression is eroding Nie Guangrong, and the lowliness has become his footnote, even if the thorn on his body occasionally stabs others, regardless of right or wrong, he must take it back, as if he does not have the capital to face the world directly. After thinking about it so much, Nie Guangrong felt that he had changed, and suddenly felt that he was so tired of living, Nie Guangrong shook his head, blinked his eyes a few times vigorously, trying not to think too much, and then took Xiuqin to speed up his pace, and rushed back to the old man's house as fast as possible, Nie Guangrong didn't go home that night, he felt so tired, he fell asleep on the sofa of the old man's house...... In his dream, he is a warrior, representing justice, heroic, and invincible. In the middle of the night, Nie Guangrong woke up, but his eyes were still closed, and he wanted the dream to continue.

When she got up in the morning, Xiuqin had already cooked the meal, and waited with her grandfather for Nie Guangrong to wake up and eat, Nie Guangrong was very embarrassed, and sat down without washing his face. Halfway through breakfast, grandpa put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said very seriously: "My granddaughter told me everything about yesterday, you did the right thing, my granddaughter is a very good child, she can work, very sensible, blame me for the bad old man dragged her down, she has not married until now, my family has no money, but my granddaughter is sincere, I really hope that she can find a good family, live a good life, and give birth to a son and a half daughter, but in the city, on my terms, ......" The old man sighed a long sigh, and then said: "I think about it, I sold this house as a dowry for my granddaughter, and I still have 1,800 yuan in savings, which I will leave to my future grandson-in-law. The old man looked at Nie Guangrong, then at his granddaughter, cleared his throat and said: "Glory, I am very grateful to you for this time, I see that when my granddaughter and I mention you, I smile every time, I think she must like you, don't dislike it, I want to entrust my granddaughter to you." Saying that, the old man choked up, his buttocks left the stool, his legs bent, and he was about to kneel down for Nie Guangrong, begging him to agree. Nie Guangrong hurriedly got up, didn't think about it, and said vigorously: "I agree, I agree." Xiuqin didn't object, and she could feel the joy in her heart through her eyes. The three of them sat together and decided that the wedding would take place tomorrow and at home.

The next day, the wedding was really held at home, and no one was notified, because there was no one else to notify, but only Ai Xiangqian's family. That day, grandpa found a tunic suit, I haven't worn it for a long time, and it was folded out of deep pleats, Xiuqin dipped it in hot water with a towel, and rolled out the pleats little by little, grandpa put on a tunic and looked extremely spirited, Xiuqin wore a very old red dress, grandpa said that this was worn by Xiuqin's mother when she got married, although it was a long time, but she only wore it once, and then she had no chance to wear it, Nie Guangrong really didn't have new clothes, and he actually found out the work clothes that the boss gave him when he worked in the electronics factory before, This is already the most wearable clothes for Nie Guangrong. Ai Xiangqian's family came very early, and the two of them wore very foreign clothes, Ai Xiangqian was in a suit and leather shoes, and his daughter-in-law was a one-piece yarn. Compared with Nie Guangrong's dress, Ai Xiangqian's family looks like a newlywed person who is getting married today. Nie Guangrong didn't feel uncomfortable at all, he was used to being inferior to others, used not to compare with anyone, and didn't dare to have the slightest hostility towards everyone. Ai Xiangqian prepared a large bouquet of flowers for the newlyweds, and stuffed Nie Guangrong with a red envelope, which contained 1,000 yuan, Nie Guangrong didn't want it, but Ai Xiangqian pushed it back, marriage money, how can it be unreasonable? Nie Guangrong had no choice but to accept it, thinking that he would definitely find an opportunity to return it with interest in the future.
