Half the Sky (Part II)

Although Zhao Meifeng's home has moved from the seat of the district government to a small town, the standard of living has not decreased much. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoZhao Meifeng's lover can earn some extra money in addition to lecturing at school, using winter and summer vacations and holidays to do some tutoring outside the school. Of course, in the town, their family is not a rich family.

With the improvement of living standards, cars have gradually entered the lives of people in small towns, and there are two main types of people who use cars in the town, one is the leaders of the town government, who of course use buses to do things; The second is the large farmers and businessmen who have made a small fortune, and the money they pay to buy cars is also the income of labor. The car is not only a means of transportation in this mountain town, but also a symbol of the user's identity, Zhao Meifeng's family also bought a car, in fact, the usage rate is not high, most of it is to satisfy vanity and show off to others.

On this day, Zhao Meifeng drove a car on the narrow streets of the town, giving full play to the driving skills she had learned in the driving school for three months. Holding the steering wheel in her left hand and her mobile phone in her right hand, she used her high-pitched voice to chat with her girlfriend in the city as she walked, enjoying the attention of passers-by.

A self-taught, self-employed driver, driving a patent-leathered van and a van that was also driving on the streets of the town, honked his horn a few times, saw that the driver driving in front of him did not respond, and tried to go around the left side of the car in front of him in a dozen directions.

Zhao Meifeng was chatting on the phone and was chatting to the beginning, when she heard a horn behind her, thinking that the car behind her would pass from the right, she casually slapped the steering wheel to the left. The driver behind did not expect the driver in front to dodge to the left, and before he could think of what measures to take to avoid the car accident that was about to happen, there was a "bang" sound, and the mouth of the van kissed the butt of the car.

Zhao Meifeng seemed to be pushed forward by someone else from behind, her face slapped on the steering wheel at once, she opened the door and got out of the car, and yelled at the van driver: "You are blind, how did you drive ------" Before she finished speaking, she felt that something hot was flowing down her face, she subconsciously took a handful and saw blood on her hands. "Oh, Mom!" Zhao Meifeng screamed in fright and fell unconscious.

After Zhao Meifeng was carried into a van and taken to the town health center, several popular women held a street discussion.

"The 'sugar press' usually meets customers, and her cold face can freeze when she is poured with boiling water, so this time she also made a few smiley faces for the doctor." A middle-aged woman with a hemp stick figure gloated.

"At a young age, her heart is so hard that she can strike a match, and this time it can be regarded as retribution for her. Once I passed by the store, the child in my hand cried for candy, I told her if I could take a few yuan to coax the child first, and then take the money from home and return it to her, she didn't agree, you said, we all know each other, will I still pay the bill? I don't know if she went to the health center just now and brought money for treatment, if she didn't have any money on her, the doctor could let her blood flow first, and then stop her bleeding after paying the money. A winter melon said with an angry face.

A chubby elderly woman said sympathetically: "It is not easy for people to come to the town from the city to work and live, there are no children in their thirties, and it is not easy to live, after all, they are all neighbors, I think we should not blame her now, we should take time to visit her together." ”

Two older women next to him nodded in unison.

Zhao Meifeng was hit into a concussion, with seven or eight stitches on her head, and after lying on the hospital bed in a daze for more than an hour, she slowly woke up, and the intense pain of the wound on her head made her facial features misplaced, and her face with excessive blood loss looked a little pale. Hearing Yang Chunni shouting her name, she opened her eyes and saw Qi Xia also standing next to her, and gradually recalled the terrible scene on the street.

Yang Chunni opened the insulated lunch box, poured out half a bowl of salty soup, and carefully fed Zhao Meifeng with a small spoon, Zhao Meifeng drank a few sips, and said sadly: "Sister, if people are unlucky, they fart and hurt their heels, and they stuff their teeth when they drink cold water, I drove my own way on the street, and I almost didn't get hit and killed by the immoral van driver." ”

Yang Chunni really wanted to say: "Why don't people hit me, it's not that you drove and walked carelessly", seeing Zhao Meifeng's uncomfortable appearance, she endured it, and just said: "Don't think so much, drink some soup first." ”

Qi Xia also persuaded Zhao Meifeng on the side: "It is impossible for people to go well in the world, who doesn't have three long and two short, let the past pass, you are mainly resting well now and recovering from your injuries." ”

Zhao Meifeng has always been suspicious of the intimate relationship between Qi Xia and Yang Chunni, and after listening to Qi Xia's words, she was a little unhappy, and said stupidly: "Yes, if I can move my family from the small town to the city again, I won't mention anything about the past." ”

Yang Chunni couldn't help it this time, put down the soup bowl in her hand, and said to Zhao Meifeng with a straight face: "You can't say that, do you know what hardships Qi Xia has suffered in the past?" Although she will soon be transferred to a coastal city to work and live, she and her husband will only see each other once a month. As the saying goes, Qi Xia's lover may be transferred to the more difficult desert Gobi, barren mountains and mountains to work in the future, and the two may still be separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, will you still be jealous of her at that time? ”

Qi Xia pulled Yang Chunni's arm and whispered, "Sister-in-law, she was just injured------"

Yang Chunni didn't care so much, and continued: "If a woman is jealous of other people's husbands when she is young, good for her children when she is middle-aged, and good health when she is old, she will live a very miserable life, and she will be happy when she is content. Do you know, after you were hit, the van driver lied and said that he had no money on him, and your lover went to the district for a meeting and didn't come back, and it was Qi Xia who paid you the admission fee. Qi Xia also said at the beginning that she has type O blood, and if you need a blood transfusion, let the doctor draw her blood. Just now, she hurriedly ran home again, and stewed a small can of sea cucumber and yam soup for you with the sea cucumber that her lover sent back and was not willing to eat. ”

Zhao Meifeng blushed, looked at Qi Xia, opened her mouth, and her flexible tongue, which was usually soaked in sucrose water, became a little stiff today. She held Qi Xia's hand in shame, her nose was sore, she choked, and two real tears fell from her eyes.
