Chapter 44: Not Gratuitous (5,000 words)

For Liu Xiaoguang, Yang Hao's memory has long been blurred.

Like most of his classmates, Yang Hao only remembered that Liu Xiaoguang was a short and thin boy, and there seemed to be two shallow dimples on both sides of his cheeks when he laughed.

Why do you say that there seems to be? Because Yang Hao really can't recall more memories of Liu Xiaoguang.

Sheng Hongqing carried a black backpack to the courtyard of Yang Hao's house before nine o'clock, and after hesitating for a moment, he shouted: "Yang Hao, are you at home?" ”

"I'm here." Yang Hao's voice came from behind Sheng Hongqing.

Sheng Hongqing, who was facing Yang Hao, was stunned, and then turned her head to follow the prestige, only to see Yang Hao, who was dressed in white sportswear, walking towards her with Wang Hui, who was wearing an orange and yellow dress.

Because what happened at the school gate at that time had spread all over the school, Sheng Hongqing glanced at Wang Hui, who looked pure and lovely, and asked with a knowing smile: "Your girlfriend?" ”

Yang Hao, who got up early today and accompanied Wang Hui to the sea pond in Shengjiatang to wander around, heard Sheng Hongqing's inquiry, so he turned his head to look at Wang Hui, who had two blushes on his cheeks, and nodded as a matter of course: "Yes." ”

"It's not ......" Wang Hui immediately blushed, and wanted to hide something.

It's a pity that Yang Hao finally caught such an opportunity, where would he give Wang Hui the possibility of backing down? He simply reached out and grabbed Wang Hui's little hand, and said proudly: "What's the matter, it's more beautiful than the girls in our class, right?!" ”

"It's really beautiful." Sheng Hongqing glanced playfully at Wang Hui, who was still struggling, and then bypassed the topic: "It's not early, let's go early and return early?" ”

"Okay." Yang Hao nodded happily, and then asked Wang Hui: "Are you going with us?" ”

"I'm not going......" Wang Hui looked left and right as if she had been a thief, looking left and right with a very weak heart, for fear of being seen by someone and being pulled by Yang Hao.

Finally getting a chance, she quickly withdrew her hand, hurriedly said, 'You go', and fled straight back to the house.

Yang Hao sighed, and said to Sheng Hongqing, who wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh: "I'm sorry, Xiaohui will be more shy when he meets strangers......

"I think someone is more daring!" Sheng Hongqing laughed, squeezed her eyebrows at Yang Hao and said, "The relationship between the two of you hasn't been determined before, right?" ”

"Ahem...... It's not early, let's go. Yang Hao couldn't resist, so he had to change the topic: "Do you know where Liu Xiaoguang's family is?" ”

"You know, the Puwan Bridge is over, and the first one on the right hand side is." Sheng Hongqing looked at Yang Hao's pure white sportswear, and couldn't help but quip: "But don't say it, I haven't found out that you are actually quite a mother in three years of high school...... The old man is dressed in white, who are you going to perform on stage?! ”

"......" Yang Hao couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

Swimming in Haitang with Wang Hui this morning was regarded by Yang Hao as a serious date.

So when he got up early in the morning, he put a lot of effort into it, rummaged through the cabinets and found this pure white sweatshirt, and after putting it on, he also looked at the mirror again and again, thinking that he was still very temperamental, very handsome!

So, Yang Hao, whose self-confidence was hit, bit back: "Don't say it, I haven't found out that your mouth is actually quite poisonous in the three years of high school......"

Sheng Hongqing is not pretty, but she has an outstanding developed brain!

If Yang Hao remembers correctly, this time in the college entrance examination, Sheng Hongqing will be admitted to Peking University in Beijing with a total score of 646 points.

At the same time, Sheng Hongqing is also the champion of the liberal arts college entrance examination in Shaxi County this year, only three points lower than the champion of liberal arts in Wenyang City!

What's more, Sheng Hongqing stayed in the capital to work after graduation, either in 2008 or 2009, Yang Hao met Sheng Hongqing at a reunion of high school classmates, Sheng Hongqing was married and had children at that time, but the company she co-founded with her husband already had tens of millions of yuan in assets......

Strictly speaking, Sheng Hongqing is indeed a girl who is destined to succeed, which is inseparable from her own diligence and hard work.

Of course, at a certain level, her ordinary appearance also kept her away from the complicated so-called romantic love in high school......

On the way to Liu Xiaoguang's house, Yang Hao chatted with Sheng Hongqingtian without a word.

When the two talked about what industry they wanted to do in the future, Yang Hao thought for a long time before responding: "I think, I should go to the Internet industry." ”

"Internet?" Sheng Hongqing looked puzzled: "The Internet is just a computer, right?" I think computers are selling quite expensive now......"

Well, even if she is a scholar, even if she is a strong woman in the future, at least at this stage, Sheng Hongqing is still just a nerd, huh...... Nerds with a female gender!

Yang Hao didn't explain too much about the concept of the Internet industry to Sheng Hongqing, and after talking about his future plans, he asked rhetorically: "What about you?" Senior, what industry do you want to do in the future? ”

"Me?" Sheng Hongqing, who was carrying a backpack, shaved short hair, and wearing a pair of black travel shoes, responded with a smile: "I haven't thought about it yet, but if I can be admitted to Peking University Shun, I believe that I will have a clear direction soon...... In short, I thank you for Liu Xiaoguang this time! ”

In a few words, the topic has changed 180 degrees.

When Liu Xiaoguang was mentioned again, the smile on Yang Hao's face also faded a little, and he sighed lightly: "This is life!" ”

While talking, the two had already walked across the small bridge at the head of Puwan Village, a house on the second floor and a bottom, and the red brick exterior wall was crawling with vines and plants, which was imprinted in the sight of Yang Hao and Sheng Hongqing.

Sheng Hongqing stopped on the bridge, pointed to this small building and said to Yang Hao: "This is Liu Xiaoguang's house." ”

Yang Hao noticed that at the door of Liu Xiaoguang's house, on an old rattan chair, a middle-aged woman with a blank expression and motionless was sitting.

At this time, Sheng Hongqing also whispered in his ear: "This is Liu Xiaoguang's mother, the car accident three years ago took the life of Liu Xiaoguang's father, and Liu Xiaoguang's mother, who also suffered the car accident, although she survived by luck, lost part of her function due to brain injury and became a vegetative person who couldn't take care of herself......"

Yang Hao listened, and there was a bitter feeling in his heart.

He said to Sheng Hongqing: "Let's go over." ”

"Hmm." Sheng Hongqing nodded, and walked side by side with Yang Hao towards Liu Xiaoguang's house.

"Excuse me, is there anyone at home?" Approaching Liu Xiaoguang's mother, a pungent sour smell came to his face, Yang Hao stretched his neck to look inside the house, and shouted loudly: "We are Liu Xiaoguang's classmates." ”

"Wait a minute......" came the tired voice of a young girl from inside the room.

About half a minute later, a girl with a thin figure who could even be described as yellow and thin walked out of the dark room.

She looks like she's about 16 or 7 years old, but she's very thin, as if a breeze can blow her away!

Seeing this malnourished little girl, Sheng Hongqing said to Yang Hao: "This is the eldest sister of Liu Xiaoguang......

"You are ......" Liu Shasha wiped her water-stained hands on the apron in front of her, and looked at Yang Hao and Sheng Hongqing standing at the door of her house with a puzzled expression.

Yang Hao immediately explained: "We are your brother Liu Xiaoguang's high school classmates...... We heard about Liu Xiaoguang, so we ......"

mentioned her brother Liu Xiaoguang, Liu Shasha, who had dried her tears during this time, suddenly turned red again.

Sheng Hongqing hurriedly stepped forward, took her arm and comforted: "People can't be resurrected after death, and we living people always have to live strongly...... I believe that your brother Liu Xiaoguang is in the sky, and I don't want to see the picture of you sad for him, do you say? ”

Liu Shasha forcibly held back her tears, and said in a choked voice: "Thank you...... By the way, you're here today......"

"That's right." Sheng Hongqing turned his head and glanced at Yang Hao, and then said: "After we heard about Liu Xiaoguang's misfortune, the whole class and the main teacher pooled a sum of money together, although 3,000 yuan is not much, but it is also a heart...... of all the teachers and students in the third and fourth classes of our high school."

As she spoke, Sheng Hongqing took out the sorted out three thousand yuan from her backpack and handed it to Liu Shasha.

But Liu Shasha hurriedly refused: "How can this be...... You already donated money to my family when my parents had an accident three years ago, how can I take your money again......"

"You just take it." Yang Hao said at this time: "Although your brother Liu Xiaoguang has only been studying in school for a month, everyone in our class treats him as our classmate. You should accept this money, even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about your mother and your two younger siblings! ”

The mother was mentioned, and the two younger siblings were mentioned.

Liu Shasha was silent.

Sheng Hongqing took the opportunity to stuff the money into her arms, and Liu Shasha stopped refusing this time.

She silently shed tears and whispered, "Thank you...... You're all good people. ”

Seeing that Liu Shasha accepted the money, Sheng Hongqing was also relieved, she looked around for a while and asked, "By the way, where are your younger brothers and sisters?" ”

"I went to the taro field to help people dig taro." Liu Shasha responded: "Come in and sit down for a while, I'll pour you a glass of water." ”

Yang Hao and Sheng Hongqing did not refuse.

Because it is obvious that Liu Shasha has been tortured by the cruel reality and is about to collapse, at this time, she is the most sensitive and fragile psychologically.

It is likely that Yang Hao and Sheng Hongqing's refusal has become a disgusted reaction in her eyes, which is not good.

So the two politely said hello to Mu Ran's mother Liu Xiaoguang, who was sitting on a rattan chair, and followed Liu Shasha into the house together.

Yang Hao looked around for a while, only to find that Liu Xiaoguang's home almost didn't have a decent piece of furniture, and there was a sour smell in the air, as well as a strong smell of herbs.

Sitting on a bench that would make a 'creaking' sound when it was shaken, Yang Hao asked Liu Shasha: "How did Liu Xiaoguang's matter reply in the factory where he worked?" ”

Liu Shasha, who was pouring boiling water, paused and said astringently: "When my brother was buried, a manager and several of his colleagues came to the factory......

"Did they say anything?" Yang Hao then asked.

"The manager said that my brother's death was because he did not operate the machine in accordance with the safety regulations of the factory, so the factory could only give a part of the humanitarian consolation money...... Liu Shasha said in a low voice: "They asked me to sign a piece of paper, left 10,000 yuan and drove away......

"What paper?" Yang Hao asked.

"It's just a blank slate." Liu Shasha raised her head and responded, "There is nothing written on it." ”

"......" Yang Hao was stunned when he heard this, Sheng Hongqing stood up even more 'whew', and asked excitedly: "How can you sign a blank piece of paper?!" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I knew that after signing, they could write whatever they wanted, and my brother's life might be worth 10,000 yuan. Liu Shasha burst into tears and choked up: "But what should I do?" The manager said that even if this matter is sued in court, it is my brother's own responsibility, and they also said that if I don't sign, I won't even give this 10,000 yuan!! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Don't you have any adults in your family? Yang Hao settled down and asked, "Your father's uncle and brother, what about your mother?" Didn't they react at all? ”

"Since my mom and dad had an accident, they haven't come to my house." Liu Shasha responded: "When my brother was buried, there were still many people who didn't come......

"So what are you going to do in the future?" Sheng Hongqing couldn't help but ask: "You still have to go to school, your younger brothers and sisters are also at school age, and your mother is like this...... What will you do with yourselves? ”

"I'll find a way to keep my younger siblings in school." Liu Shasha raised her head when she heard this, although her voice was not loud, but with an unusually resolute tone: "I won't let them drop out of school!" ”

"What about yourself?"

"My mom needs someone to take care of her." Liu Shasha's eyes darkened, and she turned her head to look at her mother who was basking in the sun at the door......

There is no need for much explanation, Liu Shasha has already told Yang Hao and Sheng Hongqing about her decision.

After hearing Liu Shasha's answer, Sheng Hongqing couldn't help but glance at Yang Hao, and then asked Yang Hao: "Do you have a way to help them?" ”

Yang Hao was silent for a while.

Help, this word has a total of nine strokes, which is easy to say, but even more difficult to do.

Seeing the situation in Liu Xiaoguang's family here, it can be regarded as the best understanding.

This is a typical, broken family!

Does Yang Hao have the ability to help this family return to a normal life? Of course it is!

But does he have the obligation to help the family? His money is not all windy...... What's more, as things stand, is this really just something that can help with a little money?!

And Yang Hao's silence also made Sheng Hongqing silent.

About half a minute later, Sheng Hongqing smiled bitterly: "That's right, you just graduated from high school, just like me...... It's hard for me to be strong......"

"How old are your two siblings?" Yang Hao suddenly broke the silence and asked Liu Shasha instead.

"My brother is 11 years old and my sister is 13 years old...... "Liu Shasha responded.

Yang Hao lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then said, "From now on, I will pay for the study expenses of your younger brothers and sisters......

"Huh?!" Liu Shasha was shocked when she heard this.

Sheng Hongqing even showed a look of surprise: "Yang Hao, you ......"

"Don't worry." Yang Hao made a silent gesture and said, "Listen to me finish speaking!" ”

"You say ......"

"I'll lend this money to your family." Yang Hao said in a deep voice: "The validity period is until all your brothers and sisters graduate from college, and after they graduate from school and have their own income when they join the work, I need you to return the money in full, you can set a time to return it at one time, or you can pay it in installments, that is, how much ......money will you pay me back every month."

After a pause, Yang Hao added: "Of course, I don't want interest. ”

"Why are you so stingy......" Sheng Hongqing couldn't help but glance at Yang Hao.

But Liu Shasha was silent for a while, then turned around and took out a booklet from the back cabinet, opened it and handed it to Yang Hao.

"It's ......"

"Since my parents had an accident, I have recorded every amount of money sent by well-wishers." Liu Shasha bit her lip lightly and said to Yang Hao: "When my parents had an accident, my brother told me that you must know how to repay your kindness, you must be poor but you can't be short-minded, although I am a girl, I can also support this family!" ”

After speaking, she took a deep breath, bowed deeply to Yang Hao, and said at the same time: "Don't worry, I, including my younger brothers and sisters, are not people who don't know how to reciprocate, your great kindness, I will never forget it for the rest of my life!" ”

A smile gradually bloomed on Yang Hao's face, he glanced at the booklet handed by Liu Shasha, closed it and returned it to Liu Shasha.

"I take your word for it." Yang Hao got up and said, "Then from now on, I will be your family's creditor." ”

Liu Shasha was stunned when she heard this, Sheng Hongqing was even more anxious, and she said, "Hey, what do you mean...... You're not even going to count that money, are you? It's a ...... for everyone to get together."

"I've got four thousand with me here." Yang Hao stopped Sheng Hongqing with his eyes, took out four thousand yuan from his pocket as he spoke, and stuffed it into Liu Shasha's hand: "You are a good girl, I believe that your brother's spirit in the sky will definitely feel gratified!" People can't just live in the past, they can't just live in the present, they have to look farther, so ...... The body is important! ”

Yang Hao said with a smile: "Buy more food, only by taking care of your body can you be more determined and more powerful to fight and work hard towards the future...... I can help you solve the problem of money, but if the next time I come to your house and find that you are still like this......"

"What do you want?" Sheng Hongqing raised his eyebrows on the side.

"Then, all my previous promises will be null and void!" Yang Hao said: "Because I don't believe that a person who can float when he walks will have enough time and ability to repay my funding!" ”

Liu Shasha listened to it, and tears fell again.

She dragged the 4,000 yuan that Yang Hao gave her, choked up and said, "Thank you, thank you......"

In addition to repeating the words 'thank you', Liu Shasha has no idea what else she can say again!

Yang Hao's arrival seemed to dispel a dark cloud that shrouded her heart, allowing her to see hope and see that the light was not far ahead!

Sometimes, giving people hope is far better than simply helping with money! ――
