Chapter 21: An Appointment with a Disciple
One afternoon before leaving, in the training hall, Wu Zuo could seriously tell Chu Ya, "Don't be lazy when you go home, wear it all the time, and make it a part of your life." Then there is the single crutch, don't let go so quickly, even if you walk well, try to take it with you. It would be better to insist on it for at least a year, and then let it go. ”
"Why?"
Chu Ya was a little puzzled.
Wu Zuo Neng smiled slightly, "Because of the center of gravity." If you let go of the single crutch that allows you to borrow too early, you can of course walk, but then the walking posture will become ugly. In order not to be too troublesome in the future, try to bring it with you. ”
"Oh, I see."
"Also, it's your first time doing a prosthetic, this socket must be on the large side, it's October, you wait until March or April next year, come here again, and make a small socket again. You can rest assured that this second acceptance cavity is free of charge and there is no charge. ”
When Chu Ya heard this, her eyes lit up, "Great." ”
"So, you must practice well in the past six months, you know? I'll wait here. Half a year later, if you come here to redo the acceptance tone, I'll see your walk, don't let me down! ”
Wu Zuoneng patted Chu Ya's shoulder and encouraged.
Chu Ya smiled brightly at him, "Brother Wu, don't worry, I won't let you down!" ”
"Good! Go back, this is my business card, if you have any problems, you can call me directly. ”
After speaking, Wu Zuo was able to give her a business card.
Chu Ya took it with both hands, "Okay." ”
……
The next day, Chu Ya and Aunt Hu had already packed their things, in order not to worry their father, so Chu Ya tried her best to persuade her father, saying that she and her mother would go to the Dushu Village bus station to take the bus home, as long as Dad would pick them up at the station when he arrived.
When they left Delin's company, Wu Zuoneng actually stopped them, "Auntie, Chu Ya, wait a minute, I'll ask a colleague to take you to the station." ”
"Huh? It's too much trouble. ”
Aunt Hu was a little flattered, but she really didn't know where the bus station in Dushu Village was.
As a result, Wu Zuoneng waved his hand, "Auntie is polite, he happened to pass by there on the way, so it won't be in the way to take you on a ride." Xiao Zhou, come, hurry up and help carry things into your car. ”
"Here we go!"
The one named Xiao Zhou is estimated to be a few years older than Chu Ya, with a simple appearance and a somewhat fat figure, but his smile is very friendly, "Auntie, you're welcome." Lao Wu and I are fellow countrymen, and I also happen to be going there today, so I'll give you a ride along the way, let's go. ”
After speaking, Xiao Zhou quickly took the luggage in Aunt Hu's hand and went out.
Seeing this, Chu Ya nodded towards Wu Zuoneng and thanked him, "Brother Wu, thank you!" ”
"Let's go back. Take care! ”
Wu Zuneng waved his hand with a smile on his face.
This smile is a little less stern and a little more intimate.
Chu Ya and Aunt Hu followed behind Xiao Zhou and went out to go home.
When they arrived at the Dushu Village bus station, they bought two tickets, and Aunt Hu and Chu Ya boarded the Lianping shuttle bus home.
Sitting by the window, Chu Ya looked at the bustling scenery of Shenzhen, and there was an indescribable touch in her heart.
On this trip to Shenzhen, her biggest impression and deepest impression was that the disabled people she met were still working hard. I didn't stay at home all the time because of my disability, and I became a turtle with a shrunken head.
It's not terrible to lose your legs, it's terrible to look down on yourself.
Chu Ya picked up her mobile phone and sent a message to Wen Zixuan: I'm home.
Tick Tick!
The phone received the message in an instant.
Wen Zixuan: Are you still used to using prosthetic limbs now?
Chu Ya: I am getting used to it, and it is estimated that it will take another year of training to look better.
Wen Zixuan: A year? Then, a year later, when you come to Foshan, I will accompany you for your birthday!
Chu Ya was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and replied: Do you know what my birthday is?
Wen Zixuan made a smile: You are a Scorpio. November 14th.
Chu Ya looked at the message he replied, her eyes couldn't help but be slightly red, the junior brother really remembered her affairs so much.
When she didn't reply to the message for a long time, Wen Zixuan sent a message again: In November 2009, you came to Foshan, and we made an appointment!
This clearly does not give her a chance to refuse.
Chu Ya sighed lightly, and finally replied with one word: Okay.
And when Wen Zixuan in Foshan saw the good word Chu Ya replied, he jumped up in the room with joy!
Next year!
Thinking of this, Wen Zixuan hurriedly walked to the computer desktop, and then took out a notebook on the desktop, handwritten in November 2009, and had an appointment with her.
He looked excited, and then wondered, next month is her first birthday after the car accident, what gift should he give her?
……
As night falls, the lights come on.
When Chu Ya returned to Lianping from Shenzhen, it was already dark, and the time was already more than seven o'clock in the evening.
In the mountainous county in autumn, the sky is also dark fast.
At the gate of the bus station, Chu Ya saw her father's figure from a distance.
And he stood at the gate, and he stood very conspicuous.
"Mom, look, Dad is there!"
Chu Ya pulled Aunt Hu beside her, pointed in her father's direction, and let her mother take a look.
Aunt Hu nodded, "See, do your feet hurt?" ”
"It's fine."
The position of the car is a little narrow, and the seat is a little high for the prosthetic, so the prosthetic limb is suspended like this throughout the whole process, which makes Chu Ya very uncomfortable.
However, no matter how uncomfortable it was, as long as she thought that she would be able to go home immediately, she was happy.
Step by step, I cautiously got out of the car and walked out of the gate.
Chu Tian looked at his daughter with blank eyes, "Ya'er, can you go?" If you can't go, Daddy will carry you. ”
"No, I can go."
Chu Ya hurriedly shook her head, how could she let her father carry her?
When she was discharged from the hospital, she looked at the three-story stairs of her home with her double crutches, and she was completely at a loss.
At that time, it was her father who carried her down the stairs.
It was only then that time that she saw her father's original black hair, which was actually half white.
When I came back from Shenzhen this time, I found that my father's complexion was even haggard, and his silver hair came out a lot, and in just a few months, he seemed to be a few years older.
"Then you go slowly, don't be in a hurry."
Chu Tian took the luggage in Aunt Hu's hand and walked slowly with Chu Ya.
This time, although Chu Ya was holding the crutch in his hand, not too many people were looking at it, at most there were a few gossipy eyes looking at it a few more times.
And when an old woman saw it, she shook her head sadly and said, "Karma (life is bitter and pitiful)." ”
When Chu Ya heard this, she said to the old woman: "I don't think I have created karma (life is miserable and pitiful). On the contrary, I am very happy because I have a family that guards me, protects me, and loves me. You're worried about me, goodbye! ”
Note: The word "karma" in Hakka dialect, in our place, mostly refers to the meaning of pathetic, pitiful, and miserable.
