Chapter 16: The Culprit
Time can't be reversed, Uncle Yong lay in the hospital, has not woken up, as if he has become a vegetative person, the car driver who killed that day finally caught, the traffic police said that night the car driver forcibly changed lanes and caused Uncle Yong to overturn, drove out for more than 20 minutes, the car also hit, the car has been in the car maintenance company for maintenance, these days the car driver took out the car, and then drunk driving, was caught.
However, the driver of the sedan did not admit that he was drunk driving on the night of Uncle Yong's accident, he just said that the turn signal was broken, and he did not turn on the turn signal when changing lanes, and the main responsibility for causing Uncle Yong to overturn and become a vegetative person was not him, but he would not completely shirk the responsibility.
Nearly a month has passed, and the ghost only knows if he drank that night, but judging from the surveillance footage, the car is driving erratically on the road, and normal people will not joke with their lives like this. However, if the current is not caught, the traffic police can't do anything.
In the end, the driver of the sedan agreed to be responsible for part of the medical expenses, and it was a small part, of course I wouldn't agree, I wanted to hack this girl to death with a knife. However, Yang Xiuying finally compromised, she had no choice, if she fought a lawsuit for this matter, there would be no conclusive evidence, it would be difficult to win, and it would also cost money, and Uncle Yong's current treatment costs money like running water, where to find extra money to fight a lawsuit?
And the other party also let go, saying that he was not afraid of lawsuits.
Under the coordination of the traffic police, the head teacher Yang Xiuying and the car driver reached a private agreement, the car driver paid 60,000 yuan, swaggered away, for the owner of the Audi car, drunk driving caused a truck driver to amputate his limbs and become a vegetative person, compensation of 60,000 yuan is nothing, spend money to eliminate the disaster.
Zhu Yousheng!
I remembered the name of this guy, and I will remember this culprit for the rest of my life, and I really hope that the next time he drives himself drunk and drives himself to death, so as not to harm others again.
The most hateful thing is Yang Xiuying's father, he actually asked Yang Xiuying to go through the divorce procedures, divorce Uncle Yong, and find another man to remarry, and said that Uncle Yong was useless, if Yang Xiuying didn't divorce and kept Uncle Yong in a vegetative state, then this life would be over.
It's so unconscionable, and it's too realistic.
This old guy was kicked out of the house by me with a kitchen knife, and he scolded me from afar, saying that I should take Uncle Yong out of Yang's house as soon as possible. My aunt didn't know what to say, and she talked less and less every day, and she seemed more and more lonely and sad.
I'm really worried that she will divorce Uncle Yong, in this case, it will be too unfair to Uncle Yong. I asked Yang Xiuying on WeChat how to deal with this matter, she said that her heart was messy, and she didn't know how to deal with it, so she could only take one step at a time, and I was even more worried that the old guy's words would become true, so I could only keep persuading her, whether it was useful or not, then I don't know.
On the twentieth of the twentieth month, the transcript of the final exam finally came out, I happened to be the tenth in the class, and the age ranking was more than 100 years away, and the quota for submission had been lost, but the tuition fee waiver was not lost. When the head teacher gave me the report card, she didn't blame me for doing so badly, because she knew that I had been busy with Uncle Yong's affairs, and I was also worried that it would inevitably be affected by this incident.
After Uncle Yong's accident, it really affected me, I was able to be admitted to the top ten in the class and keep the conditions for tuition waiver, I was already very satisfied, and I no longer had the luxury of submitting a quota.
Yang Xiuying said that Uncle Yong's condition has stabilized, and there are doctors watching in the hospital, no one knows when he will wake up, our lives still have to go on, she asked me to go home to spend the New Year with my family, I originally planned to continue to stay, but Yang Xiuying took me to buy some New Year's goods, and drove me back to the village.
I wondered if Yang Xiuying would send me back, her family was good to discuss the divorce with Uncle Yong, I questioned Yang Xiuying in front of my father, my father glared at me, and after pulling me aside, he apologized to Yang Xiuying and said that the child was ignorant and nonsense, so that Yang Xiuying should not care.
Yang Xiuying didn't say anything, and she didn't agree to leave her for a meal, my father got some local products from the village and put them in the back compartment of Yang Xiuying, and Yang Xiuying quickly returned to the city.
After Yang Xiuying left, my father told me that children should not mix with adults, Uncle Yong became like this, it was his life, everyone has their own life, only blame God for being unfair. And Yang Xiuying is still young, so she doesn't care how she chooses others.
I don't know what else to say, maybe Dad is right, it's Uncle Yong's bad life.
The New Year was supposed to be joyful, but I couldn't be happy when I thought about Uncle Yong lying in the hospital. I will often use WeChat to chat with Yang Xiuying, ask her about her recent situation, in fact, it is also to test Yang Xiuying's tone, I no longer dare to hook up with her words, I am really afraid that she will be tempted to divorce Uncle Yong, I know that she was alone in the hospital on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve with Uncle Yong, not with her mother's family.
However, Uncle Yong couldn't say a word to her, and when Yang Xiuying received my New Year blessing at midnight at 12 o'clock on Chinese New Year's Eve, she said that she was fortunate that there was such a person as me who could tell the truth, otherwise she would really be bad, I said that this is a small matter, as long as she wants to talk, I can be a listener.
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, my dad took me to the city to visit Uncle Yong, and also gave Yang Xiuying a New Year's greeting by the way.
The Spring Festival passed quickly, the early spring came, the semester of high school started, and after I returned to school, I came to Yang Xiuying's house, her father and mother, and her brother-in-law and sister were actually there. Yang Xiuying's father said that I can't continue to live here, it's better to go to school to live, if it weren't for looking at so many people in the house, and Yang Xiuying's eldest brother-in-law is very burly, I really want to go up and beat people.
But I know I can't beat them, there are so many of them, I can only silently go to the room to pack up my things, just move, anyway, Uncle Yong was also admitted to the hospital, continue to live here, and I was upset when I saw those snobbish faces, and I didn't see it, but I couldn't see it.
"Changshun, you continue to live here." Yang Xiuying walked into the room.
"Anyway, if I don't want to be seen, I'd better go back."
"This is the house that your uncle and aunt bought, your uncle let you live in it, and I let you live in it, and no one can kick you out."
"Xiuying, don't be confused." Yang Xiuying's father persuaded outside.
"I'm not a child anymore, I have my own ideas, if you're okay, go back." Yang Xiuying replied with some impatience.
"Xiuying, Dad, this is for your good." Yang Xiuying's eldest sister is also persuading.
"That's enough." Yang Xiuying suddenly roared loudly.
Yang Xiuying's father glanced at each other, sighed separately, and left quickly. I didn't continue to pack my luggage, since Yang Xiuying didn't drive me away, it means that she won't divorce Uncle Yong, and I have no reason to leave.
At dinner in the evening, I asked the head teacher if the money was enough, I still had 15,000 in the card, and she said that the insurance company compensated Uncle Yong for 100,000 yuan of serious injury insurance, and also compensated for 70,000 yuan for car insurance, but the 70,000 yuan was used to repair the car. Coupled with the 60,000 yuan in compensation from the driver of the car, it is enough to pay Uncle Yong's medical expenses in the hospital for the time being, but there is no extra money to pay back to me.
I said that I don't need so much money for the time being, and told the head teacher that I don't have to pay it back for the time being, and I know that Yang Xiuying's pressure has become greater now, the car loan and housing loan have not been paid off, and now there is one less laborer, and the situation will be more difficult in the future, and the hundreds of thousands will not last long.
Money, Uncle Yong also had a car accident in order to make more money, sometimes this money is really not a thing.
Yang Xiuying said that school had started, and told me and my cousin Qianqian not to be distracted by Uncle Yong's affairs, and to study hard, especially Qianqian, who will soon take the high school entrance examination, if you don't work hard, you won't even be able to get into the third middle school. Qianqian lowered her head and agreed, and she didn't know if it was perfunctory. And at about nine o'clock in the evening, I saw her sneaking outside, and after I followed out, I found that she was actually hiding in the community playground and smoking.
When she saw me passing, she didn't put out her cigarette, as if she didn't see me.
I sat next to her, she said angrily let her leave her alone, it made people feel like a tendency to be willing to degenerate, I stretched out my hand, she asked what she was doing, I said give me one too, she looked at me suspiciously, and finally gave it to me.
I lit it and took a hard puff, and my cousin looked at me in surprise, not expecting me to smoke.
"Do you want your mother to remarry?" I asked.
