Volume 1 Global Village Chapter 2 Life is Short

This is the third day since the last part-time tour guide, Liu Yishou was tired, leaning on the elevator in a community, taking advantage of the elevator slowly rising and taking a nap. He is holding a fast group takeaway in his hand, yes, this is also one of his jobs, some people may ask, why is he so desperate to make money, he feels that he is still a very dick, and he lives very tired and tired, this is a long time.

Eleven years ago, Liu Yishou, who finished his first year of high school, had to leave this school that made him very reluctant and nostalgic because of his family conditions when he was about to be in his second year of high school. In order to treat his grandfather, the family sold all the valuable things, and his old Liu family is a well-known filial son of his generation, even if his father and mother know that despite this kind of money pooled together and borrowed money, his grandfather will not live long.

But his family still sold the livestock and poultry, two pigs, a cow, and three sheep at a bargain. Why do you sell it cheaply? No way, it's not the Chinese New Year yet, and this thing is not too popular, so this is also a way out of the sick and rushed to the doctor.

In the hospital, the doctor said with a cold face

": Bed 44, 480 yuan in arrears, please go to the window immediately to settle the medical expenses, otherwise you will stop the medicine immediately. ”

Liu Yishou's mother said to the doctor with red eyes

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we're already preparing, we sold pigs and sheep, and it should be almost now. ”

Mother Liu hunched her body, whispered indescribably, and almost knelt on the ground.

The patient in the bed next to him is an old man from a unit family, I heard that his son is a staff member of the people's court, but he can be taken care of by the doctors and nurses, sometimes his relatives and friends are not there, the old man in his seventies, the pee is disposed of by the little nurse, just like his own grandfather.

Liu Yishou is here, his grandfather is also seventy-eight years old, remember, that time he went down to buy porridge for his grandfather, because there are many people near the hospital, so he queued for a long time, and then went back to see a chilling scene. Liu Yishou walked to the door of the ward and saw a nurse lady pointing at his grandfather's face and scolding

": Hey, you old thing, why are you still wetting the bed, you see it's all over the ground, what are your family going to do, I think you did it on purpose, you don't have money to pay the medical bills, even if you don't stay to take care of it, this bed sheet is 20 yuan, you tell your family to prepare. ”

After speaking, she walked out, just colliding with Liu Yishou, she glanced at Liu Yishou and left.

Liu Yishou was trembling at that time, his feet were trembling, it was not because he was angry with the nurse, but because he was about to succumb to this kind of shady ghost place.

Liu Yishou walked quickly to his grandfather's bed, put the porridge aside, and hurriedly changed his grandfather's pants. He said

": Child, this is the human heart, I just wanted to help, I saw that this old comrade was forced to blush, I can't stand it, but the nurse girl in charge of your bed, that is, I dislike your grandfather is too dirty, the smell is too big, and I don't want to help. ”

Liu Yishou lowered his head and was silent, not knowing what to say.

Is this the difference between people? After Liu Yishou changed his grandfather's clothes and trousers, he saw his grandfather crying, and his grandfather choked up and said intermittently

": I've never been so humiliated in my life, I'm, really, really can't live anymore. ”

Grandpa took Liu Yishou's hand, just like that, he grabbed it very tightly, and it hurt him, Liu Yishou felt a little blocked and out of breath for a moment. After a while, his grandfather seemed to be better and spoke much more clearly, and then he said something to Liu Yishou

"Xiaoqian, I thank your parents, and you, you are about to go bankrupt for my old bones, I'm sorry for you. ”

Liu Yishou's eyes were red, and his tears were gurgling and falling down, and he choked up

"No, grandpa, we are a family, we don't want to be so clear, okay? ”

Liu Yishou's milk name is Xiaoqian, and many families in their south will take such a name, maybe this sounds more cordial! Liu Yishou fed his grandfather porridge, he looked at his grandfather's painful expression that he couldn't swallow or spit out after eating, Liu Yishou knew that his grandfather, that self-esteem was deeply hurt, his grandfather was a soldier, in 1950, went to participate in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and went to the three brothers in October, but in the end, only his grandfather came back alone. Liu Yishou's eldest grandfather and younger grandfather both stayed in the land full of fire, the smell of medicine and blood.

Just such an old comrade, in his twilight years, lying on the hospital bed and urinating on the hospital bed, what kind of humiliation is this, maybe only his grandfather can understand it at the time, although Liu Yishou now also deeply feels that his grandfather was in the mood of life worse than death back then, but time has long been unable to go back to the past, and it is too late to comfort the old man in the twilight, the old hero of the Anti-Japanese War.

Without waiting for Liu Yishou's parents to get the medical expenses, his grandfather left, his grandfather did not stay in the hospital, his grandfather said that he didn't want to be cremated, he wanted to go home, his grandfather looked at Liu Yishou with that heartbroken eyes, and also prayed to Liu Yishou, his grandfather used all his strength to pull it out, the infusion tube needle, and then suddenly fell soft on the hospital bed, muttering in his mouth

": I don't want to die in the hospital, his grandfather trembled his body, which was the body that had beaten Lao Mei and did not fall, but now he ...... His grandfather continued to mumble in his mouth, Xiao Qian...... Xiaoqian ...... Back...... Back...... Back...... Grandpa came home. ”

At this time, the old man on the hospital bed next to him hurriedly said

": Young man, go home with your grandfather on his back, he is back to the light, and he won't last long. I didn't expect that an old hero like him in the Anti-Japanese War ended up in such a situation, I am ashamed of myself, I can't be cremated to meet his wishes, otherwise the old man will not be blind when he dies. ”

Liu Yishou was already crying and speechless, the old man was also crying, the little nurse who took care of the old man, although she didn't cry, her eyes were also red, and she hurriedly came to help Liu Yishou put his grandfather on Liu Yishou's back, and then took the initiative to go through the discharge procedures for them.

Liu Yishou was already in chaos at that time, and he didn't know anything, but fortunately, the nurse called and notified Liu Yishou's parents and told him about the situation, Liu Yishou didn't know about it, he only knew that his grandfather's 180cm body, even if the oil ran out, it wouldn't be so light, Liu Yishou was only 17 years old at that time, and he didn't know where he got the strength, so he walked two kilometers on his grandfather's back without taking a breath. Later, Liu Yishou and his father caught up, took over his grandfather from Liu Yishou, and put it down, the minute his grandfather was down, Liu Yishou fell to the ground, although it was wet and cold on the ground in the light rain, but Liu Yishou still didn't feel the slightest feeling, it was a kind of tiredness, tiredness in the heart, from the inside to the outside, from the outside to the inside, very tired, unable to express that feeling in words.

Liu Yishou his grandfather, but he still didn't insist until he went home, so maybe it was a good ending, it was better than falling in the hospital, Lao Tzu fell on his son's back, it can be regarded as having a beginning and an end.

Since then, Liu Yishou has not gone to study anymore, and followed his parents to Guangdong to work. In those years in Guangdong, life was uneventful, but it was also evocative, because the first love was also because of the long-distance relationship, and I persevered in that torturous time. Actually, I don't know if it's a relationship, I haven't held hands, I haven't kissed, and I've been away from each other for two years. Although in the dream, Liu Yishou had already caressed her, I don't know how many times.

But the cognition in reality is still maintained in the good memories of the first year of high school.

Time, back twelve years ago.

Hello everyone, my name is Liu Yishou, from the countryside, graduated from Liangshuijing Town Middle School. On the podium of the fourteenth class of high school, a dark-skinned, short, rustic, and dirty boy was introducing himself from the beginning of the new semester to every new semester. After Liu Yishou finished speaking, the audience was already laughing, why? Because this is Nancheng Nationalities Middle School, most of the students here are promoted from junior high schools in or around the county, seeing such a funny name and a special appearance and shape that is even more special than Sanmao in Sanmao's wanderings, I can't let those energetic children not laugh.

Didn't you see it? The homeroom teacher, Teacher He, are they all standing next to the podium to cover their mouths and chuckle? Liu Yishou? Still, keep a hand, on the question of name, this child from the countryside has already heard calluses in his ears, every new semester, every time is like this, just get used to it. Liu Yishou, with a red little black face, looked around shyly, the new classmates under the podium. Then his eyes suddenly lit up, because he saw a feeling that his spring was coming, it was too right for his eyes, yes, it was that feeling, the feeling of eating spicy strips for the first time, put it in his mouth, and he was reluctant to eat it, he kept chewing, and he didn't want to take a bite, because he was afraid that he would not bite in one bite, so he could only keep squinting his eyes like that, and enjoy the pleasure brought by these short tens of seconds.

"You...... You...... Hello, this good-looking classmate, I'm ...... I...... Can I sit next to you?"

This is the first time that Liu Yishou has stammered at such a young age! Because in addition to never seeing the world, children in the countryside are actually thieves in their cheeks, for example, his move at this moment has aroused the public indignation of more than half of the classmates. Isn't that defilement, that kind of beautiful person or thing?

Perhaps it is precisely because of the shameless toad, behind the flowers, every day, drove away countless bees that came to collect honey, that attracted such a person, who was not in the same world, but crossed each other's various cognitions and contradictions.

It was a kind of pure admiration to the extreme, and I didn't dare to touch the other person's hand, because in that case, I would be electrocuted, that is, I was trembling all over, my heart was out of breath, and I was extremely excited. It's very infatuated, just like that, he looks at her, looks at her, and his heart is full of flowers, and he can't put all the other flowers, because she is the only and incomparable existence. She looked at him in her eyes, and it was also the kind of pure eyes that were not as good as yours in the spring breeze, just like that, he looked at her or she looked at him, and he felt that he was really the happiest person. He said that it will always be good or not, how far she will always say, what he said, the sea is dry and rotten, the sky is barren and the earth is old, what she said, she will never give up until death.

However, the reality is still terrifying. After two years of long-distance relationship, she just graduated from high school, and Liu Yishou also came as promised, giving up the opportunity to be appreciated and reused by the boss for the two years of wandering in Guangdong. accompanied her to Guiyang City, studying in college together, that year was their happiest year, they were still the same as that year, everything was still pure as the green affection in high school, and they have always respected each other like guests.

It would be nice if time could stand still. Suddenly, she was going abroad, just think about it, how can such a beautiful person have an average family background. As the only child in the family, she had no choice. She is gone, she is like the wind in early spring, the lotus in late summer, the moon in mid-autumn, and the snow in winter. She was gone that winter, there was a lot of snow and a lot of wind that winter, and Nan Youting's back was very charming under the snowflakes flying in the sky.
