Chapter 116

Zhu Yushen, who was thinking while riding, came to the lower street, and the sun had already set. When he found the place where Xiao Rong's house was located, as Mrs. Shen said, the sky gradually darkened. After distinguishing, Zhu Yushen confirmed that between the end of the street and the village on the street, an old old-fashioned small second floor was Xiao Rong's home. The window on the right side of the house is larger, probably for the store. But at this time, the doors and windows are locked, which shows that their mother and daughter have not returned home.
The solar calendar year is not long, and the factories have to catch up with the tasks, and Xiao Rong is naturally busier than usual. Her mother should have gone to the fields to plant rapeseed, because at this time, farmers planting and planting rape can be seen everywhere around the school. So, did the little guy Nanzi also go to the field with his grandmother and haven't come back yet?
Zhu Yushen was thinking about it, when he suddenly heard a woman's loud scolding, and he pushed the cart over there. I saw a fat woman scolding her little chubby dun, scolding him for not giving what he had eaten. Zhu Yushen looked over and saw a few children playing on the stone pier in front of her house.
One of them, a young boy, was thin and well-dressed. He was in great contrast to other round-looking and well-dressed children. Zhu Yu thought deeply, he should be a difficult son. At this time, except for Nanzi, every child had food in his hands, and only he had his free hands. The two little hands were black and thin, like the claws of a turtle. That pitiful look is chilling to watch.
Zhu Yushen stood in a dark corner, and no one else cared about his existence. At this time, the little fat dun began to retort, and he said to the fat woman: "I don't want to eat that piece of bread when I have only a few bites left." Throw it on the ground. I threw away the bread that Nanko ate in his mouth. ”
The fat woman said, "Anyway." You are not allowed to give anything to Nanzi to eat next time. Don't play with him. Nanzi is not a good child! ”
At this time, a charming woman came out of the next room, and she said to the fat woman: "Nanzi, this child is born with no one to take care of him. You see that snot is all mushy and disgusting. His mother ran away, his dad is crazy, what will happen to this kid in the future? ”
The fat woman said, "No matter how much this child eats, he eats for nothing!" Could he be able to do anything in the future? He won't be wronged by starvation......" After saying that, they each took their children home.
Zhu Yushen, who was standing in the dark, listened to the two women talking, and his heart was surging when he heard it. He immediately went to the shop behind him, which was already lit, asked for two better breads, and walked up to Nanzi and handed them to him. Nanko looked up. looked at Zhu Yushen timidly, not daring to take it.
Zhu Yushen said: "Take it, my uncle will give you something to eat." Don't be afraid, eat. ”
Nanzi took the bread and bit it down one by one, showing that he was very reluctant to eat it. Zhu Yushen's nose was sore, and he felt that his legs couldn't support his body. He crouched down, his face facing Nanko's face. When he saw that little face, he couldn't find a trace of childhood happiness at all. He pulled out a tissue and wiped the snot and ash from his face.
Nanko ate with relish. After eating a few bites. He put the rest of the bread into a plastic bag and smiled at Zhu Yushen. This laugh. Zhu Yushen was relieved a lot. He got up and went back to his car, ready to go back.
At this time, a middle-aged man came by on the other side of the street, he scolded the child who was playing with stones, and then took his daughter's little hand home. The little girl stopped after taking two steps and said that her toy duckling was missing. The man turned back and helped her find it. As a result, the plastic duckling was found in the old bottles that Nanko was playing with. The middle-aged man was about to have a seizure, when an old woman with wrinkles at the corners of her eyes came over, and she walked straight to Nanzi.
The middle-aged man shouted at the old woman: "Your little family is terrible, you learned to steal at such a young age!" You see he stole our piano's toy duck. With that, he raised his right hand to take the toy duck and continued, "This is not going to work!" ”
The old woman didn't say a word, and slapped Nanzi on the forehead. Nanzi spat out what she had eaten in her mouth with a cry of pain, and then burst into tears. The middle-aged man saw this scene and walked away satisfied. The old woman took Nanzi by the hand and dragged them back, and soon they disappeared into the night.
Zhu Yu was stunned for a long time and didn't move, he seemed to see himself twenty years ago, and tears once again poured out of his eyes.
What Zhu Yushen saw today confirmed what Mrs. Shen thought when she told him about Xiao Rong and her nephew before. What he didn't dare to imagine was that after 20 years, the level of civilization in society did not seem to progress, and people still seemed unusually indifferent to each other.
Nanzi is still in an absolutely vulnerable position, just like himself when he was a child. His self-esteem was trampled on, and everyone came to step on him, and almost no one went to lift him up. For those of his collateral relatives, he also showed indifference to the son. Just like Nanzi's uncle's family, grandmother, and possibly Xiao Rong, they only focus their hearts on their immediate family, as long as they don't starve Nanzi to death, it is already his great luck.
Perhaps when Nanzi had just formed an embryo in his mother's womb, his life was tied to a tragic fate. His father was a loser, and his mother loved vanity and selfishness, and even if they hadn't been changed, they wouldn't have been able to give the son a decent life in the future. Perhaps the reason why they gave birth to him was just to have a hope when they were old, incapacitated, or sick.
Nanzi came to this world with this kind of mission, and then suffered from family changes, which made his life bleak, and he may have to bear great obligations in the future. His immediate family members have invisibly regarded him as a liability, and they each have their own business. In fact, it doesn't cost them much to feed and clothe a person like him in a half-blind manifold, but they are unwilling to do it, or unwilling to do it.
If they do anything for the sake of the young martyr, they also hope that he will repay it with great favor in the future. Everyone thinks that he is like this, what can he do in the future? People can't always see what the future holds. Therefore, regardless of whether or not there is a person who has given grace to a troubled son, you can discriminate against him and ridicule him for having no future. And then say things like, "It is better to give something to the dog to eat; After the dog eats it, it will wag its tail at the giver, and if you give it to someone like Nanzi, you will eat it for nothing."
When Zhu Yushen thought of this, his heart was extremely sad. Before he knew it, he had walked to the edge of the Chishui River, and he sat down on the stone slab by the river. (To be continued......)
