Chapter 45: Kindness
Going home during the Spring Festival, reuniting with your family, and sharing the joy of family life is always the constant wish of a wanderer.
Yuan Lin knew Lu Tianyu's situation, and comforted him softly: "Xiao Lu, if you are homesick, go back and see, the money is not enough for you." ”
"No need, Sister Yuan, I have money." Lu Tianyu hurriedly said. Usually at work, Yuan Lin has helped him a lot, and he doesn't want to trouble others anymore.
Yuan Lin saw it in his eyes, and didn't say anything more, but changed the topic and said: "It's snowing outside!" Xiao Lu, did you wear more today? The weather forecast is only minus seven degrees Celsius tonight, and with the strong winds outside, your coat won't be worth it. ”
"Sister Yuan, I didn't pay attention to the weather forecast......" Lu Tianyu said hesitantly, he had never had the habit of reading the weather forecast, no matter whether it was cold or hot, he relied on his body to resist.
"I know you're not wearing much. I specially brought one of my husband's down jackets over today, and I'll get it for you later. With that, Yuan Lin turned around and walked towards the staff locker room.
After a while, Yuan Lin came back with a plastic bag, which was bulging, "Xiao Lu, this is a down jacket, as well as a cotton hat and a pair of leather gloves, all of which belong to my husband, I haven't worn them for several years, I have washed them all, you take it, you don't have to return it." ”
Lu Tianyu only felt that his eyes were hot, and something called tears seemed to be about to burst out of his eyes, and it was easy to add icing on the cake, but it was even more precious to send charcoal in the snow, "Sister Yuan, I can't take it, how can I ask for your things......"
"Xiao Lu, what are you polite to me? If you do this with me again, my sister will be angry! Yuan Lin stuffed the bag into Lu Tianyu's hand, "Xiao Lu, it's snowing today, and there won't be many customers in the store, so you should get off work early." At this point, you can also catch the bus, saving you from having to walk back to school. ”
"Sister Yuan,......" The young man was halfway through his words, quickly turned his head, raised his hand and secretly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, no, he must not let Sister Yuan see his tears, it is too embarrassing.
He didn't know that the moment he turned his head, Yuan Lin had already seen his red eyes clearly, she smiled slightly, and her face was filled with a kind of motherly light.
"You should leave early, it is enough for me to carry it in the store. By the way, here's today's hamburger, you take it. Xiao Lu, are you going to have a final exam? Work hard, do well in the test, and then my sister will give you a big red envelope. ”
Under Yuan Lin's advice, Lu Tianyu pushed open the door of the store and walked into the snow, no one noticed that his eyes were red again.
…………
Bus stop 77, only a few people scattered.
Standing under the canopy, looking up at the sky, looking at the elves dancing in the street lamps, Lu Tianyu felt a warm current in his heart, flowing all over his body, "Sister Yuan, don't worry, I will definitely work hard, I will not let you down!" ”
A gust of cold wind hit, rolled up countless snowflakes, and hit Lu Tianyu's face hard, making the young man shiver in pain, "Fortunately, Sister Yuan gave me this down jacket, as well as this cotton hat and leather gloves, otherwise today's ghost weather would be really enough." ”
"Ahem!" A few slight and piercing coughs caught someone's attention, and when he turned his head, he saw a man huddled in front of a shop that had fallen from the shutter door not far away, looking at a ragged and black dress, who should be a homeless man.
If in the past, Lu Tianyu would hide far away when he encountered this situation, because he knew that even if he wanted to help the other party, he might not have the ability, and it would be difficult for the mud bodhisattva to cross the river himself, and helping others would also require a certain economic foundation.
But today, an impulse suddenly surged in Lu Tianyu's heart, he wanted to help this homeless man.
Walking quickly to the door of the store and squatting down, Lu Tianyu found that this was an old man, his hair and beard were gray, his face was covered with mud, and his whole body was curled up in a ball, like a ball, and he was still coughing.
"Uncle, what's wrong with you? Are you sick? Lu Tianyu asked softly.
After all, after studying in medical school for more than three years, out of the occupational sensitivity of still belonging to the preschool class, Lu Tianyu felt that the old man might have a trachea or lung problem.
"I'm cold, I'm hungry! I'm cold, I'm hungry! The old man kept talking, his voice faint.
Without any hesitation, Lu Tianyu quickly took off the down jacket he had just put on, draped it on the old man, took off his hat, gently put it on the old man's head, and then handed over the hamburger in his hand: "Uncle, this is still hot, you eat first and fill your stomach." ”
The fast food restaurant where Lu Tianyu works has a rule that all college students who come to do odd jobs can receive a hamburger for each class, which is one of the reasons why he chose this restaurant, after all, this hamburger can be used as his lunch the next day, which can save a lot of money. It is said that Yuan Lin still won this regulation from the boss.
After putting on the thick down jacket, the old man seemed to recover a little spirit, looked at the hamburger in his hand, and did not thank him, lowered his head and gnawed it, only two or three bites, and it was wiped out, not even a bit of scum left, it seemed that he was really hungry.
The last bus came, but Lu Tianyu did not leave, because he suddenly found that the old man's cough was very serious and he barely stopped. Even if he only has the medical knowledge of the three-legged cat, Lu Tianyu also knows that the old man's illness is very serious, and if he stays outdoors, the severe cold and strong winds will kill him.
You have to call 120 and ask them to come over quickly, you can't just hang up like that.
Thinking of this, Lu Tianyu stood up, took out Xiaoqiang from his arms, pressed one, two, and zero on the number pad, and the phone was quickly dialed.
"Hello, this is the 120 emergency center, what's the matter?"
"I'm near the Olympic Sports Square Station on Bus No. 77, and there is a homeless old man here, lying on the street, as if he is very sick, you can come and have a look."
……
After a simple exchange, the operator promised to send a car over immediately, but the road was slippery in snow, and the time was difficult to say, so Lu Tianyu was asked to wait patiently for a while.
Hanging up the phone and looking at the old man who was still coughing, Lu Tianyu was very anxious: "No, the people from the emergency center don't know when they will come, it's so cold outside, you have to quickly move the old man to a warm place, otherwise the old man's illness will worsen." ”
As soon as I raised my eyes, a small shop not far away was brightly lit, so late, and it hadn't closed yet?
Look again, the window outside is decorated with flowers, and a mannequin in a bikini is striking a sultry pose, with a sign above her head standing out - Sex Cooperative.
So that's the case, Lu Tianyu suddenly realized, and his face couldn't help but blush.
But at this time, people's lives were at stake, and the young man didn't care about anything else, so he pushed the door open.
On this dark and windy snowy night this month, Lu Tianyu walked into an ambiguous shop for the first time in his life
