Chapter 1023: The Widow
"This time, I brought back the wife and children of the old captain and his sister-in-law, a total of three people, when the old captain was on a mission on the southwest border...... Sacrifice! ”
Speaking of this, Lu Baichuan choked for a few seconds, inhaled and let the tears in his eyes not flow, "He sacrificed himself to attract the attention of the enemy in order to save our entire team, he didn't have to participate in that mission, I was already the captain at that time, but he said that he was familiar with the border, and he was also familiar with those people, so he participated in the mission."
Unexpectedly, it became the last task of his life! ”
Lu Baichuan gritted his back molars, and the last words that the old captain said to himself came to his mind: Go, if you don't go, I will die in vain, escape with everyone, quickly!
He watched the old captain expose himself, be caught by the enemy, the last bright red blood splashed into the sky, and the suppressed roar, and he could only leave with his teammates, and the old captain died.
"After the old captain left, it was her wife who came to receive the pension, and she was still holding a baby of a few months, and he left without even seeing his own son. Her wife was very simple, refused the caring work offered to her by our division leader, held the urn of the old captain, left with medals and money, and I left her the address and contact number of my grandfather who used to be in Wushi.
Some time ago, my grandfather gave me a letter, which was forwarded by Aunt Xie after receiving it, I opened it and saw that the captain's wife and children were having a bad time, so I went to their house, and when I got to the house, there was no one in the house, and when I pushed the door in, I saw a three-year-old boy sitting on the ground eating...... Chicken manure, because of malnutrition, the child now walks crookedly, the captain's lover is afraid that when he is farming, he will not be able to take care of the child, so he locked him in the house, except for a few potatoes, there is nothing, the two go out for a day, the child is locked at home.
It was the old captain's son, the son he had never even met, and I couldn't watch his wife and children live like this. ”
"Three-year-olds, why can't they walk well? Is there something wrong with this child? ”
Lu Baichuan nodded, "My sister-in-law took the child to see a doctor, and the doctor said that it was a motor nerve development delay caused by brain dysplasia, and the captain's pension was all spent on treating the child, but the money was far from enough, which is why their mother and son had such a difficult time. ”
"It's too difficult, you do a lot, find a time for me to show the child, through massage and acupuncture these rehabilitation treatments, it will also help the condition to a certain extent."
Lu Baichuan held An Xia's hand tightly, "Xia Xia, I can't stand you, I wanted you to follow me to enjoy happiness, but I still have to raise three more people, so that you can suffer with me." ”
"As long as they don't suffer anymore, is it a letter from my sister-in-law?"
"It was written by the old captain's sister-in-law, if she didn't look for me, I thought that my sister-in-law was holding a pension and living a good life, but it was after she secretly contacted me that I knew that the situation was so serious."
An Xia nodded, "It's right for her to contact you, at least each of you will help them, and their family will be fine." ”
"Yes, I'm glad she contacted me, I'm very guilty now, I should go to see my sister-in-law every year, I'm afraid that I will go to arouse the sadness in my sister-in-law's heart, I always can't help but feel guilty when I see them, that mission, I should resolutely organize the old captain......"
Lu Baichuan couldn't go on.
"Don't be too sad, we can't change what has happened, but we can make them better in the future, how did you arrange it?"
"I rented a house for them, just near the company, the captain's sister went to work in the company, cleaning, and the sister-in-law was at home with the child.
"Okay, that's a good arrangement."
Just because my sister-in-law is living such a difficult life, she refuses to ask her husband's comrades-in-arms and old leaders for help, so it can be seen that this woman doesn't want to trouble everyone at all, but fortunately, the captain's own sister got in touch with Lu Baichuan, and things are not too bad.
……
The day of the company's opening soon came, Xiao Jingsheng took his family to attend the opening ceremony of the new company, Anxia found a flower shop to order a pair of flower baskets, and Deng Yifan's company was in the office building of the bustling business district of the imperial capital.
There were a lot of people who came that day, most of them were young people, and some bosses, Deng Yifan and Lu Baichuan were wearing straight suits, one was like a playboy, revealing a little extravagance, and the other was calm and introverted, but he was silent but had a momentum that people dare not underestimate.
"Sister-in-law, look, it's so good-looking."
A young girl in a floral dress is holding the woman next to her, who is dressed in a two-part floral cloth dress, very old but cleanly washed, with a pair of black cloth shoes on her feet, and a child in her arms, which looks out of place with the girl in the beautiful dress next to her and the surroundings.
The woman looked at the girl beside her, "What are you doing dressed like this, what kind of clothes we are, these things are not suitable for us." ”
The girl was a little aggrieved, "Why is it not suitable, the girls here all wear it like this, this is what Brother Lu bought for me, sister-in-law, you don't wear it, and you won't let me wear it." ”
The woman sighed, "Little sister, it's not appropriate for us to dress like this. You are not a person here, and you don't have such a family environment, Lu Baichuan is kind-hearted and manages the three of us, but we can't do this, we have to support ourselves, and when Guoguo is cured, we will go back and not cause trouble to others. ”
"What? Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? Get back? Why? It's good here, and we didn't let Brother Lu keep it, I cleaned in the company, and the money I earned was enough for the three of us to live here, so I won't leave. ”
Yang Xiaomei pursed her lips, what are you doing when you go back, a foot of soil on a sunny day, a muddy body on a rainy day, you have to pick up the draft, and eat potatoes at once, how can you compare it with the imperial capital, sister-in-law has a good life, why do you have to go back and suffer.
"Sister-in-law, our living conditions at home are incomparable to here, I can go back with you, but what about Guoguo? My eldest brother sacrificed for the country, and you resolutely refused the kindness of the leader, refused the work arranged by the leader, and had to take my brother home, and the child became like this. ”
When the woman heard this, her eyes darkened.
"Sister-in-law, I know you are good to Guoguo, but in our village, it is really not suitable for Guoguo, my brother has sacrificed, leaving Guoguo to live in a big city, why can't it, this is my brother in exchange for his life."
The woman did not speak, but sighed slightly.
