Jinghai City

The modern city of Jinghai has long been in full swing, and busy people are hurriedly walking on the streets, which represents the vitality of a city. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe afterglow of the setting sun shines on the bustling back of the city.

But on the other side of this bustling city, there is a group of low-level people who are struggling for life, and they are conscientious and conscientious, just for the temporary stability of life. This is where the story begins.

A young man who looked to be in his early 20s was staring at the sunset outside the window at this time, his face was pale, his facial features were as clear as carving, especially the deep eyes, revealing a trace of unwillingness, his thin body was lined with uncoordinated clothes, like a piece of dead wood, he was supposed to be vigorous but he was sitting in a wheelchair. Looking at the birds flying in the sunset outside the window, Zhuo Hui felt a kind of loneliness in his heart at this time.

Zhuo Hui turned his head to look at the clock on the wall, it was half past five. said to a golden retriever lying beside him: "Ah Huang, you also like to watch the sunset?" Ah Huang, who was lying on his stomach, heard his master speak to him, and instantly got up, rubbed Zhuo Hui's legs with his head, and kicked his hind legs back a few times, probably because he was a little numb after lying on his stomach for a long time. Zhuo Hui touched Ah Huang's head, there was finally a trace of joy in his eyes, and said with a smile: "It's just that you accompany me all day long." ”

"Ah Huang, do you think I don't look like the sunset this afternoon? Behind the seemingly gorgeous, it will be replaced by night in a short time, and it will not be long for a long time, and it will not be long for a long ......time" Zhuo Hui still touched Ah Huang's big head, staring out the window and muttering to himself. Of course, Ah Huang couldn't understand what his master said to him, so he just wagged his tail vigorously and stared at his master.

At this time, there was a sound of the key opening the door downstairs, and Ah Huang escaped from the owner who was stroking it. Zhuo Hui seemed to be accustomed to Ah Huang's behavior, and he was busy pushing the wheelchair forward with his left hand and "walking" to the door. Because he and Ah Huang both knew that this was his mother's home.

Zhuo Hui's mother's name is Li Lian, an ordinary middle-aged woman, in her 40s, she worked as a security team leader in the subway company, and her salary was enough for daily living allowances, and the family rented a two-bedroom apartment in the 90s of the last century.

"Mom, you're back," Zhuo Hui said to the door.

"Xiaohui, hasn't your dad come back yet?"

"Not yet, I guess I'll be working overtime today."

"Oh, your dad has been so busy lately, Xiaohui, today my mother bought you fish, and when I was shopping for vegetables, I saw that the fish was very fresh, so I bought one." Zhuo Hui's mother pulled out the key and put it in her pocket, raised the bag in her hand, and said happily to Zhuo Hui.

Although Zhuo Hui's expression was gloomy, when he saw his mother loving him so much, he couldn't help but have a smile on his face, and said "um". At this time, Ah Huang also left the ground with his front paws and put it on Li Lian's body, and his mouth was also "watery", as if this fish also had its share.

Li Lian couldn't help but smile when she saw Ah Huang's stupid appearance: "Okay, good, I'll give Ah Huang to eat when it's cooked, okay?" As if he understood, Ah Huang actually took his claws off Li Lian's body and circled around the hostess.

"Xiaohui, you go to the rest meeting first, it is estimated that your father will be cooked when he comes back, and we will eat together then." Li Lian's flat voice came from the kitchen.

"Okay, when my dad comes back to eat together, then I'll go to my house." Zhuo Hui said softly.

Zhuo Hui turned his wheelchair and returned to his room. And in the kitchen, there was the sound of pots and pans as my mother cooked. Everything is so normal. It's no different from the old days. But Zhuo Hui didn't know that half an hour later, his father's home brought him a gift that could affect him for a lifetime......

Zhuo Hui turned on the computer, took out a book and put it in front of the computer, and his lonely left hand flew on the keyboard. If someone were watching, they would be amazed: a half-crippled man with such a nimble left hand and a sense of dynamism as beautiful as a dance.

This is actually Zhuo Hui's job, helping some websites print manuscripts, and he can earn hundreds of dollars a month. Maybe Zhuo Hui can feel that he is also a useful person from this job. Zhuo Hui's eyes were fixed on the computer screen, and his mind went blank.

More than half an hour passed.

"Xiaohui, come out to eat, your dad is back!" Zhuo Hui heard his mother shouting.

"Got it." Zhuo Hui rubbed his eyes a little dry at this time, it seemed that the work just now made him a little tired.

Zhuo Hui turned the wheelchair with his left hand with some difficulty, pushed open the door of his room, and went to the living room. Seeing a weather-beaten man standing outside, Zhuo Hui looked at his father's tired look and asked, "Dad, you have been working overtime lately, have you had any projects on the construction site recently?" Zhuo Hui's father's name is Zhuo Liqiang, who works as a supervisor on the construction site, and usually works very hard.

"Well, there is a project that is in a hurry recently, and everyone is working overtime, but it can be done in two days!" Zhuo Liqiang said as he pushed his son's wheelchair and walked to the living room table.

"You see that your mother's dinner today is so sumptuous, and she usually begs her for a long time to eat meat. It's rare to buy a fish today! Zhuo Liqiang smiled at Zhuo Hui.

At this time, Li Lian came out with dishes and chopsticks, heard her husband complaining to herself, and said angrily: "Didn't you eat meat one day?" As long as you're greedy, I still want to save some money to buy some supplements for Xiaohui, maybe one day, the child will wake up and jump out of bed. However, I heard from Aunt Wang that she has a relative who sells tiger bone wine, and the treatment of this is quite divine! ”

Zhuo Hui ate the fish made by his mother in his mouth, and when he heard his parents talking about his condition, he said with a solemn expression: "Mom, don't listen to those people's nonsense, the doctors have said it, this has to rely on yourself to recover slowly, I am now used to wearing a wheelchair, you, don't worry about me, I can still take care of myself." ”

Zhuo Liqiang heard his son's words, and also said to his wife: "Yes, don't keep playing those home remedies, Aunt Wang is lying to you people who are sick and rushing to the doctor, besides, I don't think my son is worse than others!" As he spoke, he sandwiched a large piece of meat into Zhuo Hui's bowl.

"Dad, I'm full, I'll go back to the house first," Zhuo Hui said and put down the dishes and chopsticks.

"Why do you eat so much, you don't even eat this fish." Li Lian looked at her son and said hurriedly.

"Mom, I'm so full, I didn't move today, I'm not too hungry."

Li Lian also wanted to persuade her son, but was stopped by her husband next to her and said: "My son said that he was full, he was full, you have to let the child eat, Xiaohui, if you don't eat, go back to the house and rest." ”

"Hmm." Zhuo Hui responded, and pushed the wheelchair to his room with a little difficulty with his left hand, Li Lian saw it and wanted to get up to help her son, but was stopped by her husband. Seeing Zhuo Hui enter the room, Zhuo Liqiang said to his wife: "You, don't take care of Xiaohui so much, there are some things he can do by himself, just let him do it himself, so that he can feel better......"

Li Lian listened to her husband's words, looked at Zhuo Hui's room and said, "I also understand, but why did this great disaster have to befall my son?" What did I do in my last life? Punish me, God! Why do you have to do this to my son? As he spoke, his eyes were red and he was about to shed tears.

Zhuo Liqiang also fell silent when he heard his wife's words, lit a cigarette casually, and said helplessly: "This is fate, but the doctor also said that it is a miracle to be able to pick up a life in that situation, don't be too sad, let's make good money and take our son abroad to see a doctor in the future!" Xiaohui: This is not congenital, I read in the newspaper that many of these conditions have been cured! ”

Li Lian's originally crying face was also a little energetic when she heard her husband comforting her like this: "That's right...... Right! Make good money, and go abroad to see a doctor in the future, I heard that the medical treatment is more developed! ”

Zhuo Liqiang saw that his wife was no longer crying, so he also said "um" and lowered his head to eat.

I saw Zhuo Liqiang, who was eating, suddenly put down his chopsticks, patted his thigh, and shouted: "I just cared about eating the fish you made, and I forgot a big thing!" With that, he got up and walked to the couch.

Li Lian saw her husband's strange behavior and said, "What's wrong with your nervousness? ”

I saw Zhuo Liqiang pick up a head-sized box from the sofa, walked over, and said mysteriously to his wife: "What do you think this is?" ”

Li Lian looked at the things in her husband's hand and asked strangely, "What is this?" Motorcycle helmet? ”

"What a helmet! I'm telling you, it's high-tech! ”

"High-tech? Why didn't I see that I didn't even have a keyboard, and the computer still had a keyboard! ”

"This is your loneliness, I see a lot of migrant children like Xiaohui in the construction site are buying, I asked them at noon, they said that there was a game recently, don't use a keyboard to play, you can play with this, and you can be immersive, I just thought, buy one for Xiaohui, isn't it his 22nd birthday in a few days, even if it's a son's birthday gift!" Zhuo Liqiang said with a smile.

"Really? That's good, let my son have fun, since he had an accident, his friends have also cut off contact, and he stays at home all day, maybe this can make him a little hopeful, this thing costs a lot of money? ”

Zhuo Liqiang touched his head and said: "I have been queuing for a long time, and when I came to ask him, I got 5,000 yuan!" ”

"What? 5000 pieces? It's almost your January salary! Li Lian said in surprise.

"Yes, but when I thought about so many people buying it, it was quite evil, so I gritted my teeth and bought it. Hey! My wife won't blame me for spending money, right? Li Liqun laughed innocently.

"You, for the sake of your son this time, I won't pursue your indiscriminate spending of money, so why didn't you give Xiaohui a meal just now?" Li Lian said to her husband.

"I ate the food you cooked just now, I forgot, I'll send it to my son now." Zhuo Liqiang said and walked towards Zhuo Hui's room.
