Chapter 49: Jealous Men Are Terrible
Have you ever tasted the pain of countless broken bones and countless healings?
Gu Zixiu tasted it.
His life is in tatters, full of holes, and the nightmare of the past is like a thorn stuck in his throat, unable to swallow or spit out, tormenting him to this day.
If he is asked to play such a life again, what is it not to rub salt on the wound? Besides, it was still filmed in the place where the nightmare began, and he had vowed that he would never come back here.
It is said that drama is like life, but drama, it is actually always beautiful, it is different from the darkness of life, and even the light does not shine.
Although his life was dark, at least there was light, even if it didn't shine.
That faint light was Grandma, the old and kind old man.
That grandma was called by him willingly.
Even if the couple did a lot of evil and had a vicious heart, they had a septuagenarian to atone for their sins.
Every time they abused him, his grandmother would intervene to stop him, but they even beat him together.
Grandma is old, there is no ability to make money, she is naturally dependent on them to support, they are not only ruthless, but also disobedient and unfilial in the face of relatives, even grandma has eaten the last meal, but every time he has no food, grandma will save the steamed buns to him.
Grandma also tried to send him out of the mountains many times, but after being discovered, he and his grandmother inevitably suffered a severe beating.
He remembered that his grandmother held him in her arms, and the old man's voice was already hoarse, which was disappointed in his son and disgusted with his godson.
"You're breaking the law by kidnapping a baby! Son, it is a curse to hurt God! ”
Grandma's voice was hoarse, only in exchange for a sneer from the other party, "Mother, God has no eyes, besides, if I hadn't brought this kid back, he would have died a long time ago, he is just a wild seed that no one wants, I provide him with food and shelter, this is doing a good deed, how can it be harmful?" ”
Later, in order to survive and let his grandmother suffer less because of him, he chose to compromise.
Every time he called them Mom and Dad, he was so disgusted that he wanted to vomit, he lived every day as if he was even a beast, and every minute and every second was in dire straits, like purgatory.
At the age of 10, he was in the first grade.
It was grandma who forced her to die in exchange.
In order to send him to school, his grandmother sat at the mouth of the well, forced them to jump off without letting him study, and shouted at all the neighbors to let others see how they rebelled.
After reading books and having culture, it is possible to leave the mountains, grandma understands the truth, how can they not understand, they are afraid that he will run away, so they refuse to send him to study.
Unexpectedly, grandma was forced to die, it was really difficult to ride a tiger, and he had behaved very sensibly and obediently for so many years, so they believed that he would not run again.
So, in order to keep his sheepskin suit, they reluctantly sent him to school.
So many years later than other children, he studied hard or desperately, read books day and night, and then kept skipping grades, after going to junior high school, they no longer paid him tuition, he has always relied on work-study to keep his studies.
At the age of 18, he was admitted to university.
At the age of 18, it means that he is an adult and that he no longer needs a guardian.
He swallowed his anger and survived for 12 years, and finally when he became an adult, he already had the ability to defend himself and fight back.
He wanted to send the vicious couple to prison, but his grandmother begged and even knelt down for him.
At that time, my grandmother was too sick to get out of bed, but she hobbled in front of him with her weak body, knelt on the ground, and burst into tears, "Baby, don't come back if you go out." ”
"They deserve to die, I, the mother, can't teach people, and even more damned, I gave birth to this heinous beast."
"But I'm just such a son, Grandma beg, give him a way to live."
After all, blood is thicker than water, even if her son is extremely evil, she, who is a mother, will choose to forgive after all.
He couldn't forgive, and at the end of his rope, he even had murderous intentions countless times, burned this place with a fire, and died together.
But if it weren't for his grandmother, he might not be alive today, let alone go to school and learn knowledge.
In the end, he didn't call the police, and the matter will rot in his stomach forever.
He left Yingxian and escaped from hell, as if he was reborn.
When he was a sophomore, he was discovered by talent scouts and entered the entertainment industry, but he gave up his studies for money.
He really has enough of the hard life of not having the last meal, he just wants to live well, he just wants to live in a warm home, and he just wants to sleep well.
For him, happiness is that there are cotton clothes to wear in winter, popsicles to eat in summer, the bed is soft, the rice is hot, the sky is blue, and the sun is warm.
Before his debut, he changed his name, Gu Zixiu.
is still surnamed Gu, not with the man's surname, but with the grandmother's surname.
Zixiu, it was taken by his biological mother, although he hated her for abandoning him, which led to the destruction of his life, but he still used this name, not because he still had nostalgia for his mother, but.... I just want to tell myself that he is not a wild seed, he has a normal family, and he has a real name.
He had planned to take his grandmother over to live with him, but his grandmother refused, she said, the fallen leaves always have to return to the roots, no matter how bad that place is, she will always die there, no matter how bad her son is, he will always come to the end.
He hasn't been back since he left Yingxian, dreaming back at midnight, always waking up in a nightmare, covered in a cold sweat, and the scars that healed and scabbed out hurt heartbreakingly.
He thought that he would never set foot in the territory of Yingxian County in his life.
But natural disasters destroyed mountains and rivers and took people's lives.
Eventually, he came.
Because here, there is still one person who is the only one who is good to him.
He ran to the hell where he had been imprisoned for 12 years, leaving only a ruin, and his mutilated limbs reminded him over and over again that the devil was finally dead.
God, after all, my eyes have been opened.
At that moment, the mood was complicated, and the inextricable emotions were all gathered together and intricately mixed.
The joy of revenge, as well as the concern for grandma, the scenes of the past are like movie shots, quickly passing in front of him, inhuman encounters, grandma's kind smile, memories are completely like a knife, and his wound is bloody again.
Gu Zixiu held Xu Xinyi, and he remembered the unknown past pressed in his heart from beginning to end, every detail, and every bullying.
After listening to Gu Zixiu's story, Xu Xinyi was stunned, and her heart seemed to be blocked by a huge stone, which pressed her out of breath.
Even, the nose was already sour, and the discomfort was indescribable.
She never thought that the big boy who looked sunny and cheerful would have such a tragic past.
The hand involuntarily raised, hugged Gu Zixiu's trembling body, patted it gently, and comforted him.
Feeling that Xu Xinyi hugged him a little harder, and felt the warmth of her embrace, Gu Zixiu gradually woke up from his sadness, he slowly raised his head, his eyes were red and swollen, and his eyes were coated with a layer of water, which looked extraordinarily bright, but it was so sad and desolate, he looked at Xu Xinyi, his nasal voice was so heavy that he couldn't pronounce the words clearly,
"Thank you." Willing to accompany me.
Xu Xinyi was like a fish in her throat, she didn't say anything, pulled a gentle smile, and then rubbed his head pityingly.
At this time, all words of comfort are useless, and they are not as good as a tight hug.
What he needs most is such a warm hug.
And Xu Xinyi, when he needed it most, gave it to him.
Somewhere in the heart, it seems to be collapsing a little bit....
*
When He Xiao returned to the safety zone, the first thing he saw was the scene of Xu Xinyi and Gu Zixiu hugging.
Gu Zixiu sat down on the ground dejectedly, Xu Xinyi squatted in front of him, hugged him into his arms, rubbed his head gently, full of maternal brilliance, without any affection and love, but it still made He Xiao feel uncomfortable.
He casually stopped a paramedic, lifted his chin, pointed in their direction, and asked, "What's the situation?" ”
"It seems that the boy's family was killed." The medical staff looked at it, and then remembered that Gu Zixiu was in a panic and searched every tent, and replied.
He Xiao was relieved, he nodded and didn't say a word.
Although he didn't like Xu Xinyi to be so close to other men, he didn't step forward after all, and turned to leave.
With more and more wounded, there are not enough medical tents, so we have to continue to set up, and the open space in the safe area is limited, so we can only set up tents after clearing the rubble.
He Xiao was moving bricks, and a little girl walked over.
She held a bottle of mineral water in her hand, walked up to He Xiao, and the mineral water bottle poked He Xiao's back, "Uncle." ”
When He Xiao heard the sound, he turned his head to look at it, thought about it carefully, and then remembered that it was the little girl he rescued yesterday.
"Are you alright?" He Xiao put down the brick, squatted in front of the little girl, lowered his voice, and asked.
The little girl nodded and handed him the mineral water, "Uncle, it's hard work, give you water." ”
"Thank you." He Xiao hooked his lips, patted the ash on his hands, and took it, "It's not hard." ”
The little girl looked at He Xiao, her face suddenly turned red, "Uncle, are you a member of the People's Liberation Army?" ”
He Xiao shook his head and replied patiently: "No, my uncle is an armed policeman." ”
"Oh." The little girl nodded seriously, she took a step forward, got closer to He Xiao, stretched her neck to look at his back, and asked with concern: "Uncle Armed Police, are your injuries healed?" ”
"yes, alright."
The little girl's eyes widened, her face turned redder, and she looked expectant: "That.... Uncle Armed Police, do you have a girlfriend? ”
He Xiao was stunned for a moment when asked, and Xu Xinyi thought of Xu Xinyi for the first time in his mind, the smile on the corner of his mouth suddenly softened a little, and he nodded: "I have a girlfriend." ”
When the little girl heard that He Xiao had a girlfriend, she pursed her mouth in disappointment, she raised her chin and said solemnly: "My mother said that you must know how to be grateful, uncle, you risked your life to save me, I want to repay you, so I decided to marry you when I grow up!" ”
The child's childlike words were unscrupulous, which made He Xiao laugh.
He smiled and was about to speak, when he inadvertently swept Xu Xinyi who was walking towards him.
The jealous man was terrible, his deep eyes flashed with a narrow light, and he asked the little girl in a low voice, "What question did you ask your uncle just now?" Ask again. ”
"Uncle Armed Police, do you have a girlfriend?"
He Xiao coughed lightly and cleared his throat, his Adam's apple rolled, and his deep voice was word-by-word: "No, I don't have a girlfriend." ”
