Chapter Ninety-Six: The Past
Gu Jingyun saw that his father's mood was not high, and his expression looked a little sad and lonely, so he secretly asked Lin Shuhua, who had a clear face.
The mother didn't bother Gu Jianping, and quietly put on a stool and went to the yard.
Gu Jingyun sat on the pony at home, looking at her mother with a look of curiosity.
The weather in October is already very cool, and the Gu family's yard is still full of greenery.
"I told you this when your grandfather was there." Lin Shuhua said.
The breeze was blowing, accompanied by the sound of waves crashing on the shore in the distance, Lin Shuhua told the story about Luo Youfu.
Don't look at Luo Youfu's gray hair, he looks a little old, but he is just a man in his early fifties.
When he was young, Luo Youfu was a good guy in the eyes of the people of Changshui Village.
Heroic, sturdy, and a soldier in bu dui, he can send money home every month, he is a very popular unmarried young man in ten miles and eight towns, and there are many big girls who like him.
Gu Jianping was also a young man at that time, young and vigorous, and he would also row his father's boat out to sea to fish angrily.
It was a stormy day, and the ignorant Gu Jianping was just sixteen years old.
At night, I secretly rowed the family's fishing boat and wanted to go to sea, but I didn't want to be rough and windy, and the Gu family's boat couldn't withstand the invasion of such a big wave.
It happened that the boat was hit by the big waves and hit the reef area, and Gu Jianping was accidentally photographed into the sea.
His leg was also pushed against the reef by the side of the ship, and a large cut was made in his leg.
In Changshui Village at night, every household turned off the lights early, coupled with the thunder and lightning winds, no one would hear Gu Jianping's cry for help at all.
He cried and wailed, the icy waters mixed with the rain poured into his mouth, and his wounded leg prevented him from leaving the raging reef on his own.
From time to time, he was hit by the waves on the sharp rocks, and his body was scratched with many wounds.
Gu Jianping's consciousness gradually blurred, and he became more and more desperate, thinking that his little life was about to be lost on this rainy night.
At this moment, Luo Youfu, who rushed back in the rain because Luo Youfu's grandmother was dying, found Gu Jianping struggling in the waves, and jumped into the water to save him regardless of the danger of his life.
In order to save Gu Jianping, Luo Youfu's hand was also scratched by reefs and barnacles, and later he had a cold for a long time.
So, under the influence of Luo Youfu, Gu Jianping at that time silently buried a dream of being a soldier in his heart, and also admired Luo Youfu who rescued him from the icy sea.
Twenty years ago, Luo Youfu was also a face-saving person in Changshui Village, and since he returned home, he took advantage of the spring breeze of the reform policy to start a small business in the county.
At that time, he was pregnant with a wife, his son was also of school age, and his career was on the rise, which was the time for the spring breeze to be proud.
Unexpectedly, overnight, the partner absconded with donations, pushing all the debts of the loan onto him, the capital chain was broken, the product could not be shipped in time, and the creditor blocked his door.
Under this blow, my father fell directly in front of everyone.
While taking care of his father's funeral, he dealt with the creditors who came to collect debts, but the difficulties did not defeat him, and he believed that he would always survive this disaster.
But he didn't want to, when he returned home, the wide open door and the cluttered bedroom gave him a heavy blow again.
His wife, swept away his last possessions.
