Chapter III: Responsibility
Guo Shiyin was stunned at the moment, her expression was extremely shocked, she hadn't been back for many years, thinking about the good scene of the mountains and forests behind the village when she was a child, so she was in a good mood, and followed the village road all the way, looking for memories. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived at the foot of the mountain, she saw a scene that made her extremely red-faced, she was completely stunned, and what happened in front of her was beyond her previous cognition and imagination.
Especially when that man shamelessly said something that made her extremely broken and shy, and she couldn't wait to find a mouse hole to get into immediately.
Looking at Xu Guoren's wicked and slightly ridiculous smile, Guo Shiyin reacted, her beautiful face was as red as a red apple, she glared at him, and scolded: "Hooligans, bastards!" ”
In a panic, he turned around and fled.
After such a toss, the evil fire in Xu Guoren's mind dissipated without a trace unconsciously.
sighed secretly, today is unlucky, and I didn't do it twice.
Buckle up your pants and head home.
Seeing that it was approaching noon, the big drama outside Guo Papi's house also stopped, after all, the troupe also had to eat.
The play stopped, and the men, women, and children and villagers gathered in front of the stage also dispersed in twos and threes, but almost everyone's faces were filled with happy smiles, for them who were extremely lacking in spiritual entertainment in this era.
It's really nice to have a big show to watch.
Xu Guoren saw that everyone had dispersed, and the two good brothers were gone, and they might have gone back to their respective homes, so he also walked towards his own courtyard.
Xu Guoren's house is three earthen houses plus a low kitchen, the yard is surrounded by thick branches and bamboo poles, and the yard door is also made of a row of rattan baskets, about one meter square, tied to the fence with thick hemp rope, and untied to the door and put inside.
It looks shabby, a teenager and a half year old can even easily run over this fence wall, it's not that Xu Guoren's father doesn't want to build the courtyard wall, it's really that the family is poor, and the poor can even have a good anti-thief effect with a simple fence wall, because there is nothing worth visiting at home.
The rattan fence door is open, and it seems that my father and mother have already come home.
Xu Guoren had just walked into the yard when he suddenly heard an exclamation from inside the house: "Oh, Guoren and his father, what's wrong with you, what's wrong with you?" Come on, people, help."
Xu Guoren hurriedly ran in, only to see his father Xu Dafang lying on the ground, and his mother Li Xiuqin ran out in horror, probably to go out to call someone, and almost collided with Xu Guoren.
"Mother, what's wrong with my father?" Xu Guoren hurriedly hugged his mother and asked.
Seeing that it was her son who came back, Li Xiuqin suddenly pulled him and said: "Guoren, I just came back from watching a play with your father, and I was fine before, I was talking about going to cook, but your father suddenly fainted, and I don't know what's going on, Guoren, what do you say this can do." ”
Xu Guoren let go of his mother's arm, walked over and probed his nose, and found that his father Xu Dafang was still breathing, thinking that it was a rich disease such as cerebral hemorrhage?
After thinking about it, it shouldn't be, although the people of Guojiabao can barely survive, but that's all, it is a good day to be able to eat a full meal all year round, except for being able to eat two mouthfuls of meat during the New Year, it may not even be rare to see oil stars, what kind of wealth and disease will you get there.
And Xu Guoren saw that his father had a sallow face, a thin body, and an obvious malnourished appearance, could it be that low blood pressure caused syncope?
"Mother, you are watching your father at home, and I will go find Lang Zhong." After speaking, Xu Guoren turned around and ran out, there is an old man in Guojiabao, who is not bad, usually anyone in the village has a cold and headache, they will look for him.
When Xu Guoren found Lao Langzhong and told him that his father had fainted, Lao Langzhong immediately carried his old medicine box, which might be bigger than Xu Guoren that year, and ran to Xu's house.
However, when Xu Guoren took Lao Langzhong back home, his father woke up again, and was lying on the bed at the moment, but his face was still very ugly, and his breath was also very weak. ”
Li Xiuqin wiped her tears and said on the side: "Just now, Guoren went to find Brother Guo, his father woke up by himself, you can take a look, what's going on." ”
Lao Langzhong hurriedly sat on the edge of the bed and gave Xu Dafang a pulse, checked his mouth, nose and eyes, turned his head to Li Xiuqin and said, "Brother Xu's pulse is weak, and his qi and blood are insufficient. ”
"Is it malnutrition?" Xu Guoren blurted out.
"Malnutrition?" Lao Langzhong obviously heard this new word for the first time, but he could understand it, nodded and said: "It's malnutrition, brother and sister, Guoren's nephew, you'd better get an old hen for the eldest brother to replenish his body, the eldest brother works all year round, this food is really not able to keep up, and the body will collapse in the long run." ”
Li Xiuqin nodded a little blankly, and Xu Guoren sent Lao Langzhong away.
Xu Dafang on the bed drank some hot water, his face looked a little better, and he looked at his embarrassed wife and said weakly: "Guoren damn, I'm fine, it's good to sleep more, what kind of chicken to eat, it's not a festival." ”
Li Xiuqin cried sadly.
Xu Guoren walked in at this time, and when he saw his helpless crying mother and father lying on the bed, his heart was inexplicably painful.
I came to this time and space and became the only son of these two simple and poor old men, should I do something for them?
Maybe their requirements are not high, they just hope to be fed and clothed, but looking at their sallow faces, thin bodies, and destitute homes, a cold and fever may take their lives, Xu Guoren can't help but feel deeply guilty.
In any case, they are their current parents, giving themselves a portion of their small rations, perhaps they are their greatest hope in this life, and the driving force that supports them to live hard, and they are always looking forward to their son getting ahead, and they live a good life with them.
Thinking of the complicated gaze that his father looked at him when he woke up just now, Xu Guoren secretly made up his mind, he still has the knowledge and foresight of history that is nearly a century ahead of the world, and he wants to work hard to change the status quo, not to seek national security, but to make his life and the people around him better.
"Mother, don't be sad, I'll go to the county seat tomorrow to find a job, and I will definitely be able to support you and my father." Xu Guoren comforted his mother.
Li Xiuqin raised her head and looked at her resolute son, she was very pleased, but she still shook her head and said: "Child, you are very happy to have this heart, but you are illiterate, and you don't have any skills to do in the city. ”
