Early in the morning, Liu Dongmei and Wu Hua came to the station to buy tickets home.

After agreeing in Taibai Building last night, Wu Hua is ready to leave for Shenzhen on Monday, and then go to Hong Kong, and there are still two days in between, so he will take Liu Dongmei home to have a look first, so as not to worry the second elder.

After making so much money from stock speculation this time, he is also ready to take some of it back to honor the second elder.

I made a call back at the station phone booth first.

It was Wu Hua's mother Tian Huiying who came to answer the phone.

"Mom, I'll be home at noon today."

The other end of the phone was stunned for a moment and did not reply.

Wu Hua thought that Tian Huiying hadn't seen it, and continued: "Mom, what are you doing, I'll be home at noon today, and I'll tell you first." ”

"Oh." Tian Huiying came back to her senses, "Mom will cook you your favorite dish, hurry back and don't delay on the road." ”

Wu Hua frowned slightly, remembering the last time he called, his mother was also so absent-minded, this time the call was still like this, a bad premonition surged from his heart, and asked: "Mom, is there something going on at home, how do you feel that you are not giving up." ”

"No, no, it's not a big deal." Tian Huiying hurriedly diverted the topic, "This time a few people are back, if you come back alone, I won't let you enter the house, and you are not young." ”

"Then you prepare an extra pair of chopsticks at noon." Wu Hua glanced at Liu Dongmei next to him with a smile.

"Mom didn't raise you in vain. Let's not talk about it, you can come back early, Mom still has a little thing to do, that's all. Saying that there seemed to be something urgent, he hung up the phone in a hurry without waiting for Wu Hua to speak.

Wu Hua always felt that his mother's tone was not quite right, usually not like this at all, could it be that something happened at home?

With that in mind, he longed to go home immediately.

Liu Dongmei was still a little shy, and whispered: "Your mother won't diswelcome me." ”

"Why, my mother wants to hug her grandson, I wish you wouldn't leave." Wu Hua rubbed her head, her face full of love.

"It's not good that I'm going to go empty-handed."

"Go back and buy it again, it will take a long time to buy it here, it's inconvenient."

It didn't take long for the two to get on the train home. Along the way, Liu Dongmei was nervous. This is the first time he has gone to someone else's boyfriend's house, and he is both longing and shy, sitting next to him and looking out the window without saying a word.

Wu Hua remembered that when his mother answered the phone, there was obvious impatience and panic in her tone, and she was also a little worried, not knowing what was going on at home.

For his parents, he actually understands their thoughts very well, and he is afraid that things at home will affect Wu Hua's studies, so the second elder will never say anything about anything at home.

I remember one time when I was about to take the high school entrance examination, my father fell ill while working, but in order not to worry Wu Hua, he didn't tell him about it, and it wasn't until a long time after the high school entrance examination that Wu Hua accidentally learned about it from his parents.

The more I think about it, the more I feel itchy, and the more I think about it, the more scared I become, and it is like suffering along the way.

Finally at about eleven o'clock, the train finally arrived at the station, and after getting off the train, Wu Hua didn't want to buy anything more, but pulled Liu Dongmei to stop a taxi or two and go straight to his home.

A few minutes later, the taxi stopped in front of the familiar gate, paid and got off.

Liu Dongmei on the side looked at this unfamiliar environment, holding Wu Hua's arm tightly with both hands and looking around.

The two walked into the courtyard, and the smell of Chinese medicine came to their faces. The chickens that had been fed in the yard were also gone. Wu Hua stood in the courtyard and shouted, "Mom, I'm back." ”

Hurried footsteps immediately sounded in the kitchen, followed by Tian Huiying hurriedly ran out of the house, with a happy face. Especially when I saw Liu Dongmei, who was holding Wu Hua's arm, the smile on her face became brighter, and she directly ignored Wu Hua, came up and took Liu Dongmei's hand and said, "Come and sit in the house." ”

Wu Hua smiled helplessly, dear mother.

"I came in a hurry this time, I didn't buy anything for my aunt, auntie, don't be surprised." Liu Dongmei apologized.

"You are here, it is the best gift, and our family will not come to this set of those vain things." Tian Huiying took Liu Dongmei's hand, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked the girl in front of her.

It's smart, cute and cute.

Coming to the lobby and sitting down, Tian Huiying said happily: "How old is the girl?" ”

Liu Dongmei's face turned crimson, and she said shyly: "It's already sixteen, and it will be seventeen at the end of the year." ”

"My Wu Hua is similar, it's good, it's good." Tian Huiying couldn't close her mouth with a smile, and her eyes were reluctant to leave Liu Dongmei for a moment, as if she was looking at her future daughter-in-law.

Wu Hua suddenly asked, "By the way, Mom, what about Dad?" Why does there smell of Chinese medicine, who is sick? ”

At the mention of Wu Hua's father, Wu Aiguo, Tian Huiying changed color slightly, a trace of helplessness flashed in her eyes, and after a moment of silence, she pointed to the back room: "When your father was working on the construction site some time ago, a steel pipe fell on his leg......"

Halfway through the words, Wu Hua couldn't hold back any longer and got up and went to the bedroom.

As soon as I entered the door, a pungent smell of medicine came to my face, and when I raised my eyes, I saw Wu Aiguo lying on the bed, his right leg was still tied with a layer of gauze, the whole person was pale, weak, and the cheeks that were full before were now emaciated and sunken in, and the person looked ten years old.

Wu Hua's heart was sour, and he couldn't help tears anymore, walked quickly in front of Wu Aiguo, and said in a trembling voice: "Dad, I'm back." ”

Recalling the broad shoulders of his childhood, as if his father never felt tired, Wu Hua's heart seemed to be stung by stitches and needles.

"I'm back." Wu Aiguo nodded slowly, his slow movements were like that of an eighty-year-old man, and his voice was hoarse. "Ask your mother to cook for you, Dad is fine, the doctor said it will be fine in two months. Next to it is ......"

"Uncle, I'm Wu Hua's girlfriend, Liu Dongmei."

The corners of Wu Aiguo's mouth hooked up a pale smile, nodded with satisfaction, and said slowly: "You kid finally didn't disappoint Lao Tzu." ”

Without saying a few words, Wu Aiguo let them leave the room under the pretext of resting, and asked Tian Huiying to cook.

In fact, Wu Hua knew in his heart that he didn't want to make himself uncomfortable.

When he came to the kitchen, Wu Hua asked, "Mom, to what extent did Dad's leg hurt, did the boss lose money?" ”

Speaking of Wu Aiguo's matter, Tian Huiying's eyes were red, and she choked up while burning the fire: "On the night of your father's accident, his co-workers brought it back, and the contractor at the construction site gave 1,000 yuan and didn't care, and I couldn't find anyone at the construction site again." Your dad didn't have the money to go to the hospital, so he had to find a doctor at the clinic, and he kept dragging it out......"

The perpetrator ran away, and the company did not admit the work-related injury, and Tian Huiying took the 1,000 yuan to call the sky unacceptable, and the earth to be ineffective. Wu Hua's heart ached, and he said in a deep voice: "Mom, is that the last time I called you?" ”

Tian Huiying nodded with tears in her eyes.

Wu Hua gasped, it had been a month since the last call. In other words, because he has no money, Wu Aiguo has been suffering in bed for a month, no wonder people look so haggard.

"They don't admit it to the company, they can't find anyone, where are the uncles and uncles? Didn't you borrow any money? Wu Hua's tone trembled, and his hands were tightly clenched into fists.

"I found it, the two of them borrowed a thousand yuan...... Tian Huiying lowered her head, and there was still some resentment in her eyes.

"Just a thousand?" When Wu Hua heard the money, he trembled with anger. His father is their own brother, so ruthless?

Wu Hua also knows the situation in the family of the eldest and second uncle. The uncle works as a foreman at the construction site, does water and electricity, and steals some food in private, and has a lot of money in a year.

The second uncle is the manager of the factory, hundreds of dollars a month, and his position is also a fat difference, he is indispensable for personal contacts, and he has a lot of money a year.

And they've been doing it for more than ten years.

Thinking of this, Wu Hua's heart was cold to the bottom, who else in this world could be relied on except for his own family.

He didn't say much, and immediately ran to Aunt Chen's commissary to call the hospital and ask them to pick up people.

After making the phone call to give money, Aunt Chen directly waved her hand and confiscated it, sighed and said, "It's good that you're back, otherwise your father's leg doesn't know how long it will be delayed." I told your mother a long time ago that I have to go to a big hospital to see how a small clinic on the street can treat such a big injury. Seeing that you came back, you should have borrowed money. You take this money, I know that you will definitely have a future interest, and you will pay me back when the time comes. ”

Aunt Chen handed the two thousand yuan she had prepared early in the morning to Wu Hua.

"Thank you, Aunt Chen, I will pay you back twice as much when I earn money in the future." Wu Hua did not refuse Aunt Chen's money, although he did not lack this money now, but Aunt Chen's kindness, he did not dare not accept it, and only had time to return it in the future.

"Doubling your rewards to your parents is." Aunt Chen said, "Since the last time you went to school, your father has been working overtime on the construction site every day, and it is really not easy to work hard. They are all people who are willing to fight. ”

As soon as he heard this, Wu Hua trembled, and a chill hit his back. An idea that he couldn't believe was slowly growing in his mind.

In Wu Hua's memory in his previous life, Wu Aiguo did not fall and injured his legs, and there was no problem with his legs, but in this life, because he took away the family's money, his father had to work overtime at the construction site to earn money, resulting in injury.

And if he didn't take his parents' money in his previous life, nothing would have happened.

Could it be that once I change the course of history, the people around me will be hurt? Thinking of this, Wu Hua couldn't help but start to break out in a cold sweat on his forehead.

"Go back quickly, the hospital will be here soon." Aunt Chen saw Wu Hua stunned and did not move, so she reminded her.

"Well, I know Aunt Chen, I will work hard." Wu Hua came back to his senses, and after thanking him again, he also began to return home a little absent-mindedly.
