Chapter 93: The Little Resentful Woman Who Was Left Out in the Cold
Intoxicated and silent for a while, he had to talk about his past.
"When I was young, my family was poor, my father was addicted to alcoholism and gambling, and then when I got older, I quit these bad habits and was ready to live a good life. But it's just been two good years..."
When he was more than a year old, he was diagnosed with cross-sided severe strabismus in both eyes, and the doctor's recommendation was surgery. But medicine was not developed at that time, the success rate was mixed, and there may be signs of recurrence.
Many people in the village advised their fathers: "Since you can't cure anything, what are you doing with all that unjust money?" It's better to apply for a disability, so that you can get some state subsidies and live a better life. ”
Someone else suggested to his father: "Why don't you let him learn a trade from Wong Tai Sin, and he can support himself in the future, a person with eye disease like him is more likely to convince people of trade feng shui than ordinary people, and he will naturally be able to make more money." ”
At first, my mother firmly disagreed, feeling that her reputation was not good.
In desperation, my father resumed his life of gambling like his life, and when he won money, he drank and got drunk, and when he lost money, he couldn't afford to pay for it, and he was always beaten up and sent back to see if there was anything valuable at home, and he took it all.
As the intoxication slowly grows up, there are more and more places to spend money. Although he was funded by the government to go to school, his family still could not afford his living expenses.
After finishing junior high school, he had to drop out of school and return home, and in the tears of his mother's reluctance, he began to learn the craft under Wong Tai Sin.
Since then, he has followed Wong Tai Sin to the north and south, studied for two years without any income, and finally graduated from school. With his solid academic skills and practical experience, he quickly became famous in the local area.
There are more and more people looking for him to see feng shui, and more and more people come to thank him, and the life of the family is gradually getting better, and I thought that I finally had a good life.
But my father intensified, gambling more and more, and he was arrogant in the village.
Once, my father was overbearing, and a big fight with a foreign trader, and he killed someone with an axe on the spot, knowing that he had caused a big disaster, he drank pesticides when he returned home, and at the same time poured a lot of pesticides on his mother.
When Intoxicated received a call from a neighbor and rushed home, his mother had already lost his breath, and his father only left one last sentence:
"Drunk, Dad is incompetent, and he can't take care of himself, so he can only take your mother first. You have to live well, spread the branches for the Tao family, and leave a legacy for the Tao family. ”
Speaking of this, Intoxicated took a deep breath and inadvertently wiped away his tears:
"My father and mother are gone, I became an orphan overnight, and after settling down with my parents, I never set foot in that village again."
It was the end of autumn that year, and he was in extreme pain every day, either sleeping under the bridge and going crazy, or sleeping in the park and on the side of the road.
The sanitation workers really couldn't stand it, so they often brought him food and hot water, and persuaded him to think about it when he was in trouble, but the sky couldn't fall.
The uncle and aunt who passed by him during the morning exercise also stopped to persuade him: "Don't give up on yourself when you're young, there is no river in the world that you can't cross." ”
Once, he accidentally contracted a cold and fainted on a deck chair in the park, but an old soldier rescued him, not only took him home, brought him medicine, but also asked the old aunt to boil ginger soup.
Looking at the amiable old Red Army, the old aunt, who finally got better and was intoxicated, hurriedly bowed and thanked him.
The old Red Army suddenly reprimanded him with a serious face:
"You enjoy the hard work of the martyrs of the motherland, the peace laid down by the line of life and death, and step on the land paved with the bones of your ancestors, what qualifications do you have to give up on yourself? You tell me, for what did their personal sacrifice for? If everyone is as selfish as you, will anyone sacrifice their family for the sake of righteousness? ”
The old aunt also persuaded her bitterly:
"Young man, no useless man is born in the sky, and no nameless grass grows on the earth. What is the value of your life in this world? What is the meaning of life? Life in the world, 7749 levels, 9981 difficulties, you are so young, the road is still long, where is this? ”
The words of the old Red Army and the old aunt made him very embarrassed.
After the wind and cold were cured, the old Red Army took him to meet a comrade-in-arms, who was his future mentor, a disabled soldier painter.
In one of the battles, he was injured in the explosion and his entire lower body was amputated. But he did not give up on himself, but went to the rear to work as a civilian, and when the war was finally won, he became a famous painter...
Intoxicated by the righteousness of the old Red Army, he began to learn to paint with his mentor and tried to get out of despair.
Until he adjusted his state and was willing to calm down and work as a painter, the teacher took his painting and shook his head dissatisfiedly:
"Your painting skills are impeccable, but you lack the vicissitudes and precipitation of experience, go out for a walk, if you have the opportunity, you should also do your best to help, and the people around you who need help."
With the encouragement of his teacher, he tried to get out of his hometown and began to wander around:
"For so many years, I have been traveling abroad, following the instructions of my teacher, and doing my best to help the people around me, although the strength is too small and somewhat insignificant, but I will do my best to continue to help, and take charity as my life's work."
"You are so great, and your teacher is even greater!" Feng Zixi gave him a thumbs up:
"However, this is not in conflict with your surgery, on the contrary, if you are healthy, you can better help more people, right?"
"I know, you can't get over your parents' hurdle, but if your parents have a spirit in the sky and see you so helpless, can they feel at ease?" Intoxicated and silent without speaking, Feng Zixi continued to persuade:
"Didn't your father still expect you to spread out for the Tao family? It's been so long, so why hold on to it? It's time for you to live a normal life. ”
Intoxicated and darkened his eyes, of course he knew that Feng Zixi was kind and wanted to help him open his heart knot.
Feng Zixi got up and patted him on the shoulder:
"Go for surgery, give yourself a chance to start a new life, make yourself better, you are so talented and helpful, I am sure your parents will be proud of you."
Intoxicated and silent for a while, he finally stopped obsessing:
"You convinced me, and when this charity is over, I promise you to go to the hospital. However, I may have to trouble you to help me. ”
Feng Zixi smiled and said that there was no problem, everything was on her, and she would arrange it when the time came.
...
At night, the lake was more dewy, and the cool breeze was biting, Feng Zixi sent the intoxication back to the room and went back to rest herself.
"Finished flirting?" As soon as Feng Zixi returned to the room, she was startled by the sudden voice.
"What do you mean?" Feng Zixi patted the frightened little heart, indicating that his words were so strange.
"Literally." Jun Fengming got up and returned to the coffee body, his face full of displeasure.
Feng Zixi frowned a little: "I'm asking you, what do you mean by this?" Jealous? "How do you look like a little resentful woman who has been left out in the cold?
