Chapter 113: Zhang Xiumei's Death
Ouyang Ni was overjoyed after receiving Xiao Wu's silver bracelet, and Ma Sancai on the side said: "It's still Xiao Wu's conscience, this bracelet is not cheap, you can wear it in the future." β
Ouyang Ni twisted and said, "I don't wear it, he gave it to me." β
"Yo, where do you still have to eat?"
"What's your business?"
"It's true that I forgot my mother when I have a daughter-in-law."
In the next half month, Ouyang Ni was embarrassed to go to Xiao Wu again, she was so worried that she called the dock at the shop at the head of the village and asked Ma San to bring the dim sum he made to Xiao Wu to eat.
Ma Sancai said that he was busy and asked Ouyang Ni to go by herself, Ouyang Ni was so angry that she stomped her feet, carried the snacks to the dock, and put the snacks in Xiao Wu's wardrobe while Xiao Wu was working.
When Xiao Wu saw a snack in his closet at the end of the evening, he guessed that Ouyang Ni sent it, and Ouyang Ni didn't come to him again for half a month, which made him feel that something was missing.
When Xiao Wu was out of work, Xiao Wu took the initiative to find Ma Sancai to drink, Ma Sancai didn't think much about it, the two went to a nearby restaurant, and ordered two side dishes.
Half-drunk and half-awake, Xiao Wu got up and said that it was getting late and wanted to go home, Ma Sancai grabbed Xiao Wu and said directly: "Nizi is still waiting for you at home, it's so late, let you go to work tomorrow." β
Xiao Wu didn't shirk it, and went home with Ma Sancai shoulder to shoulder. γ
At night, Xiao Wu lay on Ouyang Ni's bed again, he was so drunk that he couldn't tell whether it was Jiang Rong or Ouyang Ni on the bed, hugging each other and making love until he woke up with a dry mouth the next day.
At that time, Ouyang Ni had already woken up, she looked at Xiao Wu with an obsessive face, Xiao Wu was like a shy teenager, the two of them came again between the eyebrows, the sun shone in through the window lattice, Xiao Wu said: "I have to go to work." β
Ouyang Ni took Xiao Wu's hand and said, "Didn't my brother say that you will be put on a day of work today, and you don't have to go to work." β
"Then I have to go home, my mother should worry about me if I didn't go back overnight." Xiao Wu said.
Xiao Wu lifted the quilt and got dressed as she spoke, Ouyang Ni got up, hugged Xiao Wu from behind, her face was attached to Xiao Wu's back, and said, "You are not allowed to go." β
Xiao Wu heard that Ouyang Ni was a little aggrieved, and said, "Okay, then I won't go, you let me put my pants on first." β
Xiao Wu's face was flushed, he sat on the edge of the bed and put on his pants, and then lay on the bed and got up with Ouyang Niqingqing.
At that time, Xiao Wu didn't know if it was the joy of fish and water that made him linger on Ouyang Ni's bed, or if he found some kind of long-lost sense of belonging, but he couldn't forget Jiang Rong, and he couldn't forget the girl who had been with him since he was a child, and he felt a little lost.
It wasn't until two months later that a heavy snowfall fell in Beiping that had not been seen in a century.
At that time, Xiao Wu was working on the dock, Xiao Xue was squirming, and others were wearing winter jackets, and he was still wearing undershirts and horse coats.
Zhang Xiumei gave him a sweater, he didn't wear it for fear of getting dirty, Ouyang Ni's needlework was not good, and she learned to knit gloves with Sister Qiao next door, and it took seven or eight days to weave a bunch of decent gloves, so that Xiao Wu had to wear them, so as to save the calluses on her hands.
It snowed heavily at night, and the snow on the road had already passed the condyles, so Xiao Wu signed and hurried home.
Ouyang Ni happened to send an umbrella over, giving Ma Sancai a hand, of course she hoped that Xiao Wu would go back to the courtyard with her, Xiao Wu was also hesitant in her heart, on the one hand, she wanted to go back with Ouyang Ni, and she was so affectionate at night, since the last time, he hadn't had a chance to find Ouyang Ni for a long time, and his heart was itching, but the snow was so heavy, he also promised Zhang Xiumei to go back early before going out this morning, and the dishes at home were gone.
Today's Zhang Xiumei is idle at home, and she began to pick up the craftsmanship of the past few years, weaving a cloak, the cloak shades the sun and rain, and it is just right to wear a cloak to go out on a snowy day.
Xiao Wu couldn't resist Ouyang Ni, and finally promised Ouyang Ni to go home after eating.
The three of them were eating hot soup and rice in a nearby restaurant, Ouyang Ni didn't want Xiao Wu to go back so early, and Xiao Wu sent them to the courtyard again.
Ma Sancai entered the north house by himself, and Xiao Wu and Ouyang Ni entered the east house, which was naturally the joy of fishing and water, and relieved the pain of a long absence.
At that time, Ouyang Ni vaguely said that she hadn't fallen red for a long time, Xiao Wu didn't know what it meant, and she didn't ask deeply, but Ouyang Ni was a little sick and retched when she smelled the fishy smell.
The two of them did their job, but Xiao Wu was still unwilling to stay, saying that he had to go back.
Now that it's getting late, and the car can't be ridden, Ma Sancai took a flashlight and sent Xiao Wu half a way, Xiao Wu saw that the snow on the road had passed over his calves, and estimated that Zhang Xiumei had already slept on the kang.
But when there were still two or three miles away from Sanlitun'er, Xiao Wu saw a dark shadow moving on the snowy road.
Xiao Wu was taken aback, and the black shadow that moved when he approached was Zhang Xiumei.
"Mother, why are you here in such a heavy snow?" Xiao Wu exclaimed.
Zhang Xiumei was wearing a cloak on her head and holding one in her hand, she saw that Xiao Wu hadn't returned for a long time, and it was snowing so heavily, but the snow was too difficult to walk, and it was laborious to lift her legs, Zhang Xiumei had lung disease, and she couldn't breathe well, and she would slip if she stepped on a stone and couldn't get up.
Xiao Wu ran home with Zhang Xiumei, who was already dazed by the cold, put Zhang Xiumei on the kang, and ran outside to add a hot kang, and then went to find Yu to extract teeth.
Yu pulled out her teeth and said that Zhang Xiumei had cold air in her lungs, caught a cold, and had a fever, so she was given an injection of antipyretics, Xiao Wu blamed herself in her heart and stayed by the bedside.
Zhang Xiumei woke up in the middle of the night when she was sore and weak, she had a dry mouth and wanted to drink water, seeing Xiao Wu lying next to her and falling asleep, she couldn't bear to wake up Xiao Wu, so she got up and wanted to pour some water to drink, her feet were unstable, and she accidentally fell off the bed.
Xiao Wu heard the movement and saw Zhang Xiumei lying on the ground, her head didn't know where it was, gurgling and bleeding, Zhang Xiumei said, "I'm fine." β
"Mother, why are you so uneasy, what are you going to do just tell me, isn't this a clean mess?" Xiao Wu said.
"I ......" Zhang Xiumei didn't want to make trouble, but it turned out to be a mess, she had no strength and couldn't do anything.
At that moment, Zhang Xiumei realized that she was indeed old, and she was overworked in her early years, and her body had completely failed.
Xiao Wu carried Zhang Xiumei to the pharmacy on his back, woke up Yu Tooth Extraction, who was already asleep, and Yu Tooth Extraction bandaged Zhang Xiumei's wound, blamed a few words and went back to the lounge to sleep.
After Zhang Xiumei fell asleep, Xiao Wu also went back to his room, the next morning the heavy snow did not stop, Xiao Wu wanted to ask Zhang Xiumei to get up for breakfast, but when he opened the door, he saw that Zhang Xiumei had not woken up, and he couldn't bear to wake him up, and was going to wake him up later.
At that time, Xiao Wu accidentally caught a glimpse of a letter under the table, so she picked up the letter and opened it, it was a letter from Jiang Rong, very brief, she told Zhang Xiumei that she would not go home this year.
What Xiao Wuwan didn't expect was that Zhang Xiumei would die because of this unwarranted disaster.
Xiao Wu saw that Zhang Xiumei had never woken up, for so many years, Zhang Xiumei had never slept once, but this time she was lying on the bed and had not moved, and it was almost noon when Xiao Wu showed that something was wrong, she went to call Zhang Xiumei, and now she was breathing weakly.
"Yu Tooth Extraction, Yu Tooth Extraction, come and save my mother!"
Xiao Wu's shouts sounded in the silent Sanlu Tun'er, and the villagers opened the door and saw that Xiao Wu was running wildly on the snowy road that was not knee-high, and after a while, Xiao Wu ran to his house with his teeth on his shoulder.
After Yu Tuya looked at Zhang Xiumei, she said that she was no longer good, and asked him to send her to a big hospital quickly, maybe she could save her.
Seeing that Zhang Xiumei had already breathed more and less air, and the health and medical conditions in the village at that time were very poor, and it was impossible to equip an oxygen cylinder, Xiao Wu rushed to the town with Zhang Xiumei on her back, and shouted Zhang Xiumei to wake her up.
When Zhang Xiumei was sent to the hospital, she almost lost her heartbeat, and she was on an oxygen cylinder and cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and after she barely woke up, she said that she wanted to see Jiang Rong and asked Jiang Rong to come back quickly.
It was Zhao Dahai who called Jiangrong School, and Zhao Dahai said: "Jiangrong, it is snowing heavily here in Beiping, your mother has fallen, and she is dying, if you want to see you for the last time, you better come back quickly." β
Jiang Rong hung up the phone, panicked, and ran to the train station to buy a ticket back to Beiping without packing anything.
Zhang Xiumei on the hospital bed looked at Xiao Wu in a daze, she opened her mouth, and stopped talking.
She is a person who has come from the past, and she has endured the white eyes of others, and she has also endured the heat and coldness of the world that she has experienced from her relatives.
Whether it is her father and mother, or her brother Zhang Laibao, or Chen Gongbo, Jiang Zhengyang, all of them make her live aggrieved.
So all along, Zhang Xiumei has wanted to prove something, to prove some kind of basis for her to live proudly in the world.
She could see the loss in Xiao Wu's eyes after returning from Shanghai last time, she secretly wrote a letter to Jiang Rong, reciting Xiao Wu's goodness, and scolded Jiang Rong, but Jiang Rong never replied.
It wasn't until one night that Zhang Xiumei saw that Xiao Wu didn't go home after work, so she went to the wharf of Changqu alone, and after inquiring, she learned from the uncle who watched the wharf that Xiao Wu and Ma Sancai's sister had a relationship, and she went to Ma Sancai's house if she didn't return at night.
Zhang Xiumei has always pretended not to know anything.
Zhang Xiumei pulled Xiao Wu to sit next to him, he looked at the filial Xiao Wu and asked, "Xiao Wu, my mother asked you, are you sorry for Jiang Rong?" β
Xiao Wu listened to Zhang Xiumei's words and was a little confused, but he still shook his head, Jiang Rong betrayed him first, he never felt sorry for Jiang Rong, he chose to be with Ouyang Ni is to let Jiang Rong go, and he still regards Zhang Xiumei as his mother.
Zhang Xiumei nodded and said: "I'm relieved, I can see that this girl Jiang Rong has changed, she has become bad, she is not worthy of you." β
Xiao Wu shook his head and said, "Jiang Rong is still a good girl, she is just busy with schoolwork, she will be a big man like Wu Zetian in the future." β
Zhang Xiumei gasped, her mood was a little uneasy, she said: "Don't worry, Xiao Wu, if she loses you, she won't have good fruit to eat, even if my mother recognizes you, she won't recognize her, all the anger I have suffered in my life is from my own family, even if Jiang Sheng is not as good as you, my mother is the proudest thing to raise you." β
"Mother, don't talk about it, rest first." Xiao Wu choked, how could he not have imagined that Zhang Xiumei had escaped the disease of tuberculosis, but she was going to die in an accident.
The doctor told Xiao Wu that Zhang Xiumei had acute heart and lung failure and would not survive tonight.
After Xiao Wu heard the news, he couldn't accept it for a while, he worked hard to earn money to treat Zhang Xiumei, for the relatives and elders in this world, Zhang Xiumei is alone, why is it that the person who was fine yesterday said that it is gone?
That night, Zhao Dahai sat with Xiao Wu all night, he saw that Xiao Wu was at a loss at first, and then he was haggard like a walking corpse, without saying a word, in the face of people's birth, old age, sickness and death, natural disasters and blessings and disasters, they had no way at all.
All he can do is stay by Xiao Wu's side.
But Zhang Xiumei didn't live tonight as the doctor pronounced, she kept her eyes open, and she didn't sleep, she asked the doctor to give her an injection, so that she could hold on for a while, Xiao Wu looked at Zhang Xiumei's painful appearance, he said: "Mother, if you can't hold on, just leave with peace of mind, I will take care of myself and take care of Jiang Rong." β
Zhang Xiumei said: "I had a dream last night, I dreamed that Jiang Sheng came back and came back with his younger brother Chen Liang. β
Zhang Xiumei began to talk nonsense, she didn't let herself fall asleep, and kept talking about the things that were difficult to stranded in her heart over the years.
Zhang Xiumei said: "Xiao Wu, come here, I have to tell you a secret, the secret about Jiang Rong." β
Xiao Wu listened attentively, and after listening to Zhang Xiumei's words, Xiao Wu frowned.
It wasn't until the morning of the third day that Jiang Rong got off the train at the East Railway Station and hurried to the hospital in Qiantang Town.
She cried and called Zhang Xiumei, but Zhang Xiumei looked at Jiang Rong indifferently, and she said: "Okay, you Jiang Rong, you still know that I am your mother!" β
Jiang Rong didn't understand why Zhang Xiumei suddenly said such a thing, Zhang Xiumei continued: "I don't have much to say when I see you for the last time, I should really let Xiao Wu go to school, lest you be ambitious as soon as you go out, and you won't recognize your surname." Let me tell you Jiang Rong, don't think I don't know what you're doing outside, since you became good friends with Xiao Wu in front of me, that is his fiancΓ©e, since ancient times, no woman has failed a man first, I feel sorry for your sin, but I also feel more sorry for Xiao Wu, if you marry someone else in the future, I won't be blind! β
Zhang Xiumei's eyes widened as she spoke.
"Mom, I'll marry Xiao Wu." Jiang Rong said.
Xiao Wu also said: "Mother, we will give birth to a big fat boy in the future, I will let him remember your name, you can rest assured." β
Zhang Xiumei's breath was weak, she looked at Jiang Rong and said fiercely: "If you lose Xiao Wu and follow others, I curse you to taste the pain of the world, give birth to a man as a slave, give birth to a daughter as a prostitute, Kefu Kezi, you can't die well." β
