27 And the heavens fell, and there was a tower on top of it

After sitting quietly at home for a few hours, Li Yuehua's chaotic mind began to sort out her thoughts, and muttered to herself: "I have to find a way to rescue your father, there is a debtor who is wronged, whoever steals something will go to whom, your father can't go to jail, if your dad goes to jail, our family will be finished."

After sobering up, Li Yuehua walked to the yard, washed her face with the cold water in the basin, and went back to the house to comb her hair in the mirror, wanting to wipe away the embarrassment of the day, cheer herself up, and not be defeated, what if she collapsed four young children.

Although every time Li Yuehua and Wei Fuhai quarreled, she would stage a scene of running away from home, but every time she would come back.

The most serious one was on the fish pond, Li Yuehua and Wei Fuhai quarreled, Wei Fuhai picked up a rectangular wooden stick as thick as an arm, and hit Li Yuehua on the back without knowing the severity, Li Yuehua lay on the ground for a long time and did not stand up.

That time, she was really heartbroken, carrying her luggage, and instructed Wei Gospel: "You guys stay at home, don't go anywhere, I'm leaving, I can't live with your father for a day, he only has their big family in his heart, and we are not his relatives."

Li Yuehua wiped her tears and said: "I discussed with your father, I want to divorce him, you also saw it, your father killed me, I said a bad word about his brother, he was not happy, I can't get along with your father, he has to kill me one day."

The four children, not knowing what to do, stood side by side in a row, howling and crying.

Li Yuehua's face was like ashes, and she had made up her mind, and said coldly: "Your father has never treated me as a person, and a few of us are not as good as a finger of his brother in his heart, and I won't live with him."

"I divorced your dad, who are you following?" Although Li Yuehua asked about such a boring topic countless times, several young children said in unison: "Mom, we will follow you."

Wei Gospel never thought that his parents would really divorce.

Li Yuehua ran away from home, Wei Fuhai didn't take this matter to heart at all, Li Yuehua was angry and didn't go home all day, Wei Fuhai still should eat, sleep and sleep, as if he had never quarreled with Li Yuehua.

Wei Siguo cried: "Mom, don't go, I'll follow you."

Li Yuehua comforted: "What are you doing with my stupid mother, I won't make money, follow your father, he is your father anyway, he won't treat you badly, if he remarries, your father and your stepmother will have another child, you will suffer."

As she spoke, Li Yuehua said that she was crying, and the four children saw her crying, and one by one they cried "Wow, wow, wow", and howled: "Mom, don't divorce my dad!" "Mom, don't go!" "Mom, we follow you, don't be afraid to pick up the rags and ask for food!" ”

The sound of several people crying and howling wolves hovered over the empty fish pond for a long time, Li Yuehua was full of emotion about her situation, she had been uprooted from her hometown all these years, why did she suffer these crimes, and several ignorant children followed her to suffer.

She sighed and said, "You are really unlucky, you have been reincarnated in my belly, you said that if you were reincarnated in the homes of those workers in the oil field, you would not have to follow me to eat chaff."

She raised her hand to wipe away the tears on Wei Siguo's face, and said: "A few of you are more handsome than the other, but your fate is not good, you have suffered a lot of sins with me and your father over the years, living in this tin house, hot with a steamer in summer, cold with an ice cellar in winter, and following my stupid mother who can't eat enough and don't have warm clothes."

"Sometimes, I think that the children of those workers' families are as good-looking as a few of you, but they can live in a heated house in winter and air-conditioned in summer, and I feel that I have wronged a few of you, and I blame my parents for not being capable."

Li Yuehua gritted her teeth and relentlessly, packed her luggage and went straight to the station.

Carrying luggage, she found that she didn't have to pack at all, where did she have anything decent, she had been in Tianjin for five or six years, and she had never been willing to buy herself a decent set of clothes, always gray tops and black pants, black tops and gray pants, and even the clothes worn by several children were also given by local well-wishers.

Some local well-wishers see that their family lives in the fish pond pitiful, sometimes take advantage of the middle of the night to sneak to the fish pond to put the wrapped clothes in front of her house, in the morning Li Yuehua opened the iron door only to find the clothes outside the door, Wei Fuling and Wei Siguo hugged the new clothes ecstatic, and sniffed the faint aroma on the clothes.

The more Li Yuehua thought about it, the more she felt that it was not worth it, the more she thought about it, the more she walked to the station angrily, looked at the car passing in front of her, and her heart softened suddenly, like a deflated ball, she lost the fighting spirit just now, thinking about how many children would live if she left, Wei Fuhai couldn't wait for her to go, he would find another one if she left, men are not good things, married a daughter-in-law and didn't even care about her own children, the more Li Yuehua thought about it, the more she didn't dare to think about it, as if her children would really be poisoned.

What kind of life can they live with Wei Fuhai, Li Yuehua feels terrible when she thinks about it, in the autumn of one year, Wei Fuhai's grandmother died of illness, just in time for the fish pond to come out of the fish, Wei Fuhai can't go back, Li Yuehua has to do her filial piety on his behalf, and that is the only time she came to Tianjin to return to her hometown.

Li Yuehua took Wei Siguo to live in her hometown for a month, when she came back, the three girls were unkempt and sloppy, and they were still wearing the clothes she wore before she returned to her hometown, Li Yuehua looked at the three girls who were like little beggars in Wei Fuhai's hands, and her heart was sour, she wanted to cry and held back, if she was in her hometown, she could find help from her neighbors to take care of her when she went far away, but in Tianjin, they didn't even have a relative, who to look for?

Wei Gospel sat on the threshold, staring blankly at the end of the dirt road.

Wei Fuhai followed her gaze and muttered, "Don't worry, your mother will be back in a while."

Wei Fuhai is like a god, it is not dark in the evening, Wei Gospel, Wei Fuling and Wei Siguo are playing with stones in the open space of the fish pond, and they see a familiar figure on the other side of the fish pond from a distance, and the three of them cheered and shouted: "Dad, my mother is back."

Then, running all the way to the familiar figure.

Later, Wei Gospel asked Li Yuehua why he didn't leave, Li Yuehua sighed and said, "I can't bear you."

Although Li Yuehua always said that the four of them were drag oil bottles, she should be very happy in her heart.

……

Wei Gospel, who was sitting on the sofa tremblingly, always paid attention to the most subtle changes in Li Yuehua's face.

The mirror hanging on the wall has always been just an ornament, at this moment, Li Yuehua looked at the weather-beaten face in the mirror in a daze, as if she couldn't believe that the woman with wrinkles at the corners of her eyes and frosty temples was herself, how long had she not looked in the mirror, her rough hands caressed her cheeks, and she took a deep breath of cold air: "How did I get old like this."

Wei Gospel looked at Li Yuehua's sluggish appearance, her eyes were already wet, her parents and Sun Tingting's parents were the same age, even two years younger than Sun Tingting's parents, Sun Tingting's mother was dressed elegantly and gorgeously, she went to the barber shop last month to perm her straight hair into wavy curls, and coiled it up elegantly, and carefully traced it with a brown eyebrow pencil under her faint eyebrows, and applied a mask once a week, Li Yuehua probably didn't even know what a mask was.

"I'm so busy every day that I don't have time to look in the mirror." Li Yuehua's resolute face stepped down, in Wei Gospel's heart, no matter what she became, she was still the person she loved and respected the most.

"Let's go." Li Yuehua was ready to go, thought for a while, as if she wanted to find someone to strengthen her courage, and said, "You come with me."

She pointed at Wei Gospel, tugged at the hem of her clothes, smoothed the folds on her clothes, as if she suddenly had the motivation to live, and came back to life, and said: "It's cold outside, wear more clothes, let's find someone to see how we can save your father, you can't cry at this time, it's useless to cry."

Wei Gospel stretched out his hand to wipe the tears that had dried up on his cheeks, stood up, and walked to a corner of the room, there was no wardrobe at home, usually Li Yuehua piled the clothes they often wore on a single bed in the corner, Wei Gospel found a thick cotton jacket in the pile of clothes, and put it on the outside of the thin school uniform.

This big-flowered padded jacket was specially made for her by Li Yuehua, pouring a stitch and thread into Li Yuehua, Li Yuehua said: "Why don't you wear the padded jacket I made for you, it doesn't matter if it looks good or not, just ease it, although there is heating in the classroom, but it is cold on the way to school."

Li Yuehua is a good worker, fast and quick, but it is because of the speed that she is not meticulous enough, the stitches on the cotton jacket are sloppy, and the red cotton thread is crooked along the eye of the needle from the collar to the hem, barely a straight line.

The padded jacket was carefully prepared by Li Yuehua, she looked at the weather forecast and said that this year was a once-in-a-century cold winter, and before the cold air arrived, she only took one day to make the padded jacket.

Li Yuehua persuaded her bitterly, and said: "I also wore it when I was in school, although it was ugly, it was not cold."

Wei Gospel secretly thought in his heart: "I won't wear it if I die", Li Yuehua persuaded hard, she was as strong as a cow, Wei Gospel also knew that she was warm to wear, but if she wore it at school, she would become the laughing stock of teachers and classmates, the students were still young and didn't understand the world, they just laughed and thought it was fun, but the teachers were different, their smiles were mixed with too many things, which made her afraid.

Pushing open the wooden door, Wei Gospel shuddered, shrunk his neck, put his hands into his sleeves, couldn't adapt to the darkness in front of him for a while, took a step back, and held on to the door frame.

Li Yuehua straightened her collar, turned back to Wei Fuling and Wei Siguo and instructed: "Don't be afraid, you two will come back with your second sister in a while, don't turn off the lights, don't open the door when you hear someone talking, how many pairs of eyes are staring at our house now, you don't have to be afraid, I'll go find someone to rescue your father, if it's really a last resort, I'll tell the police that the thing was stolen by the third child, let the police arrest him, he should go to jail, he should be shot and shot, it's none of your father's business, your father can't take the blame for him."

"Okay, don't cry, do you think I feel good, I'm a woman, how have I ever seen this kind of scene, when the police arrested your dad, I thought I was going to shoot your dad, calm down and think about it, the police can't arrest people indiscriminately, they may just arrest your dad and ask for questioning, and when the question is finished, it will be fine."

Wei Fuling and Wei Siguo stopped their tears.

Seeing that Li Yuehua had rekindled his fighting spirit, the stone hanging in Wei Gospel's heart finally landed, blinked, and only heard a "squeak", Li Yuehua pushed open the heavy iron door.

"Mom, will my dad be beaten, does it hurt to hit his body with an electric baton?"

Wei Gospel asked cautiously, and she and Li Yuehua walked on the uneven gravel road by the road in their memories in the dark.

"He deserved to be beaten."

Li Yuehua's tone eased a lot, she cared more about Wei Fuhai than complained, thinking of the catastrophe that Wei Fulin brought to this already stormy family, she said hatefully: "His good brother caused him trouble, let him remember it for a long time, and see if he can help him in the future."

"Will my dad go to jail?"

Li Yuehua did not immediately respond to Wei Gospel's question, and the result was not something she could have predicted.

"Mom, who are we looking for help?"

Wei Gospel's voice rang 10,000 times in Li Yuehua's mind like an alarm bell, she stopped her steps in a daze, and blood gushed up for a while, she didn't know who to ask for this favor.

When Wei Fuhai was proud of the spring breeze, there were many fox friends and dog friends around, and they could be said to be responsive, every time someone came, Wei Fuhai generously fished a few silver carp from the fish pond for them to take home, and now they are in trouble, and they don't raise fish anymore, and those so-called friends have evaporated from the world.

Now that Wei Fuhai has encountered such a hurdle, everyone can't hide, and they still expect anyone to help them, whoever gets involved will be troubled.

The surrounding silence was chilling, Wei Gospel looked up, and saw that the black and oppressive outline of the surrounding bungalow was like a lion with a bloody mouth in the night, she trembled all over, and reached out to grab the corner of Li Yuehua's clothes.

"Let's go, let's go to the water room to find Zhang Laosan, he is a local, there should be some way, ask him about your father's situation."
