Lonely and brave. www.biquge.info I held back my tears and stepped on the magnolia petals that fell under the branches as white as moonlight. It wasn't until I trampled them all as dirty as magnolia on the side of the road that I calmly stopped.

"Let's go!" I pulled Tan Xi and melted into the night without changing my face.

Due to the fierce rhetoric against the "leader", Mr. Xiaozhang was sent to a high mountain valley. Although the conditions were difficult, after enduring it, two years passed quickly. However, in order to prevent the following group of young people from going away, measures were taken from above. It is this measure that gives some people room for personal revenge. This is where the tragedy of Mr. Xiaozhang begins.

"Whose letter?" Mom packed up and came out to ask me.

"An old classmate." I hid my expression and replied.

"Oh." Mom asked casually, and then turned around and got busy. After I put the letter away, I continued to help.

Seven years ago, I learned unexpectedly that he had left, and seven years later, I received a surprise letter from him that he had written to me many years ago. Over the years, I thought he had faded into my memory. This sudden letter made me realize: it turns out that he has always been there, and I have never forgotten him.

The letter that Mr. Xiaozhang wrote to me, seven years ago, I may not be able to fully understand. But because of these ten years of misfortune, I even know everything he wants to say about retirement. Ten years ago, when Mr. Xiaozhang wrote this letter, he probably didn't expect me to grasp the deep meaning of him. He just remembered the topic of fate that he had discussed with me, and wanted to fill in the unspoken parts of the year.

This is one of his unfinished thoughts. Shortly after writing this letter, he ended his life on the dusty beams of his house. Outside, the weather was gloomy and white, and I couldn't even remember how long it had been since the sun had come out with the frozen snow on the ground. In this freezing weather, Mr. Xiaozhang closed his door and never came out again.

When the descendants knocked on the door at the beginning of the first month, they found two simple letters on the desk of Teacher Xiaozhang.

The letter was sent by Mr. Xiaozhang's only uncle. In the first letter, my uncle told Mr. Xiaozhang that he called the phone number left by Mr. Xiaozhang but did not get through. There was no choice but to write to him according to the address left by Mr. Xiao Zhang. The reason why he was in such a hurry to contact Mr. Xiao Zhang was because his sister, who was Mr. Xiao Zhang's mother, accidentally fell into the well when she went to fetch water the other night. By the time they were found the next day, they were hopeless. I hope that Mr. Xiaozhang can come back as soon as possible and send his mother on her last journey. and left his phone number, hoping that Mr. Xiaozhang could contact him soon.

The second letter told Mr. Xiaozhang that because he couldn't wait for him to go home and couldn't receive news from him, he could only arrange for his sister to be buried. The uncle also asked Mr. Xiaozhang if he was in any trouble, so he couldn't come back. And the letter asked if he needed to send him a sum of money.

The well is not deep, only about two meters. Ordinary people fell into it, stood in the well, grabbed the stones by the well with both hands, and climbed up in two or three steps. But Mr. Xiaozhang's mother can't. She wasn't tall, and she only had one hand left. What is easy for ordinary people is difficult for her. She grappled onto the edge of the well with her only remaining hand, and cried out for help in despair. But this night, it was raining heavily, and everyone was watching TV at home with the door closed. Where would anyone notice this cry?

The cries for help grew weaker and weaker until they were drowned out by the sound of rain and loud televisions. After Mr. Xiaozhang's mother couldn't support it, she fell into the well, and then lost her life like this.

Legend has it that the well has been built for hundreds of years, and not even a child has drowned. Unexpectedly, this time an adult drowned. Everyone was surprised. Even Mr. Xiaozhang's uncle wrote that he didn't expect it to be such a move.

This letter was the last straw that overwhelmed Mr. Xiao Zhang.

He thought to himself that if he had gone home, his mother would not have gone to the well at night to fetch water, and would not have fallen into the well and drowned.

And why can't he go home?

It all started three years ago.

Three years ago, Mr. Xiao Zhang, who was about to complete his volunteer teaching, had already begun to prepare to go home. Unexpectedly, the sudden notification disrupted all his plans. Their group of volunteers was postponed for two years. Although the extra two years gave a great discount, Mr. Xiaozhang was not happy at all. He would rather not have that deal, he just wanted to go home. But all of this is not up to him. Although everyone is a little dissatisfied, they are dissatisfied and can only succumb.

Teacher Xiaozhang did not accept it. He went to the relevant departments to question, but got ambiguous prevarication. After the emotion came up, he ignored the kind face of the leader and left a few disrespectful words.

It was a few disrespectful words under this anger that made him "exiled" to a high mountain valley. Two years have passed, and the young teachers who have not resisted have left one after another. He hasn't heard from him yet. He asked, and each time the answer was to wait. In this way, half a year has passed. He didn't wait for someone to come to replace him, and the school couldn't afford not to open, so he continued to stay at the school.

The reason why he was on vacation this year, he didn't go home. It was because the ID card was taken away and the application was not approved. Without an ID card, he couldn't even get out of Beiyuan County.

After the news of the extension was released, in order to prevent people from escaping without permission, the township took away their ID cards. When the school is closed, after applying for the school to be stamped with the official seal, the township will hand over their ID cards and round-trip tickets to them.

Because he offended the leaders at the beginning, Mr. Xiaozhang was given special care. Every time I go home, I have to get my application approved. This year is even more so. Until the end of the year, my application to go home was not approved.

With the meager salary of the teacher, in addition to coping with life, there is no extra money to take a long-distance "black car".

Teacher Xiaozhang was trapped in a high mountain valley.

What's worse is that due to the heavy snow blocking the mountain, the two letters were sent together. By the time Mr. Xiaozhang learned the news, his mother had already been buried.

I don't know if he regretted it at the moment when Mr. Xiaozhang died. If he hadn't been strong at the beginning, he wouldn't have spoken fiercely. By the end of the five-year period, he should have returned to his hometown. The things he had eagerly dreamed of at the beginning will also be realized one by one. Return to your long-lost hometown, marry the girl you love, and let your mother enjoy some blessings...... All this was within his reach at the beginning, but he didn't expect it to turn into an unattainable dream in the blink of an eye.

Mother died, burying everything he had. It is difficult for him to forgive himself, and it is difficult for him to forgive his fate for not being in his hands. In desperation, he ended his short life in the days when the sound of firecrackers was still echoing.
