5. Peasury Beach

Before I could figure out how to deal with everyone's reproaches this summer, the death of a loved one for the first time in my life made my actions no longer a major event worth mentioning. The reason why I call him a relative is because if he had lived to this day, then I would have called him "father-in-law", and unfortunately before I called him "father-in-law", he left that summer vacation.

Originally, his death didn't matter to me, but when I witnessed Aunt Fan's most helpless cry in her life when he died, I knew that not all the departures in life can be recovered; It also made me realize that in life, you really can't be indifferent to everything, for example, responsibility.

He died from drowning.

With the development of urban construction, the upper reaches of the Waken River, where I once drowned, were dammed and built into a reservoir as a source of water for civil use. It is said that the scale of water storage has reached the highest level in the province.

That day, Gao Jiangjiang's father, Uncle Gao, and Zhai Jianguo's father, took homemade baskets of net fish after work and went to the downstream of the reservoir gate to net fish. After netting for a while without yielding, Zhai Jianguo's father was not willing to go home empty-handed, so he shouted Uncle Gao to sneak up on the dam platform to inspect it, trying to try his luck in the waters of the dam. The inside of the dam is a cement slope, there are no steps, the slope angle is very steep, and it is slippery, it is strictly forbidden for people to enter, but Zhai Jianguo's father insisted on going below, and he himself did not dare to go down, so he instigated Uncle Gao, Uncle Gao is a very honest and honest person, unable to withstand the repeated persuasion of his peers, so he climbed over the guardrail under the wind of Zhai Jianguo's father, and did not even give him a chance to stand, so he rolled down the slope into the reservoir, and after struggling for a few minutes, Uncle Gao finally didn't have the opportunity to regret it, and drowned directly in the reservoir more than ten meters deep.

When Aunt Fan arrived, her husband had already been salvaged and lay flat there, pronounced dead.

Aunt Fan, a woman who has always been calm and optimistic, at that moment, desperately let out a heart-rending cry, which was a kind of wail, which contained Aunt Fan's unwilling pain and helpless despair. She really won't be reconciled, after all, this woman hasn't lost anything in this half of her life, just in terms of first aid common sense, whether it is scientifically discussed or folklore, she can know and use it, but in the face of her dead husband, she is now powerless.

Aunt Fan's cry penetrated the entire reservoir area that afternoon, and also penetrated my heart. My heart began to tremble, and trembled and trembled, as if someone had grabbed it with his hand and let it go, and grabbed it, and let it go, and my heart trembled one after another. At that moment, I burst into tears, the first time I shed tears as an adult man. I showed in front of my memory the picture of me being carried and run backwards by Aunt Fan, so I tried to carry Uncle Gao and tried hard, but was stopped by Aunt Fan, even in the face of such grief, she was still rational and objective, she knew that Uncle Gao had completely lost the same luck as me.

When I couldn't help hugging Gao Jiangjiang, who was crying, I firmly made a life promise to myself in my heart: I shouldn't give up this girl, I shouldn't give up Aunt Fan, I should go to support their home for Uncle Gao.

It is difficult for a person to be lucky enough to save two lives in his life, Aunt Fan saved me with the only chance in this life to win the seventh-level floating slaughter, and I will definitely spend my life to repay this salvation. This is not only a responsibility, but also a conscience.

I hugged Gao Jiangjiang and reminded myself painfully.

After dealing with all the funeral affairs of Uncle Gao, I consciously stayed at Aunt Fan's house throughout the holiday, doing everything I could do inside and outside the house.

Her house has been flipped, three red brick houses, the front face is inlaid with mosaic porcelain blocks with the pattern of the word "Fu", the cement floor of the yard is neatly surrounded by a flower wall, and there are 20 potted plants on the flower wall, which is Uncle Gao's favorite during his lifetime. Every day, I take a plastic pipe to the tap water to water the flowers or wash the courtyard, because Aunt Fan is a woman who loves cleanliness very much, and she will never tolerate a trace of dust if the conditions allow. After rinsing, take care of all kinds of vegetables planted in the front and back gardens, weed, support, remove yellow leaves, and repel insects. I am obligated to do everything I can, and I seem to have become the pillar of this family.

In fact, the home at this time really needs a pillar. After the death of her husband, Aunt Fan was hit hard, a little slumped, and behaved indifferently and indifferent to anything in the family. The three meals a day, which used to be a recipe for two dishes and one soup, have been replaced by coarse tea and light rice that I clumsily and barely cope; The cold greetings that I once gave to Gao Jiangjiang's younger brother Gao Shan were also replaced by my discipline and free-range supervision of him; The advice I once gave to Gao Jiangjiang and her sister about dressing and temperament was also ignored by my perfunctory work of washing their clothes and putting them on.

Under Aunt Fan's meticulous care, the adults and children of the whole family don't have to worry a little about housework, they just need to wait for everything ready-made, and they have basically developed the habit of stretching out their hands for clothes and opening their mouths for food, so that Gao Jiangjiang's sister Gao Yangyang has already participated in the work, but she still can't use the washing machine, and I wash all the clothes of the family. Therefore, when Aunt Fan's care suddenly spread, none of the children could adapt to this lack of all-round care, and the entire Gao family fell into an atmosphere of extreme panic. My stationing has relieved the emotions of each of them, and my obligations as a father and mother have also made their living conditions initially stable.

The entire Gao family was taken over by me.
