Chapter Thirty-Nine: My Brother Comes Out
126
The short Spring Festival holiday ended quickly. Since ancient times, I have been sad and parting, and from that time on, I have a deeper understanding of this poem.
Every time my mother saw me off, I would cry in the carriage for a while. This kind of parting makes me very uncomfortable, my heart is very uncomfortable, and sometimes my heart beats faster, and it is difficult to sit still.
After resuming work, after half a year of study, I have basically understood the locals, started to communicate with people, and the whole person is much more cheerful than before.
The third brother rarely contacted me after that quarrel with his brother.
The elder brother officially returned to his company and continued his work as general manager, and the third brother also returned to his original position.
The main reason for the change of blood is that the elder brother established a new company, and the third brother is the general manager of the new company, and the original people have followed the third brother to the new company. Theoretically and emotionally, this may be a good thing, but there are always two sides to the story, and there is no absolute good or absolutely bad. Later, when my brother told me about it, I could understand it.
Fortunately, the third brother and the elder brother have a deep relationship, and their thoughts and goals are to make a big industry, and they neither ask much nor pay attention to these things. The so-called brothers work together to break the gold, which is probably what it looks like.
My job is relatively simple and not challenging, but I'm also quite flexible, even though I'm a little fatter. The only thing I need to exercise for this job is to sit still, eight hours a day, and I have to be able to sit still. In order to practice sitting skills, I bought a cross-stitch, which happened to be popular at that time. I can also pass the time, the company is far away from the city, I don't have any transportation, I usually don't go out, and there is no TV and computer in the dormitory, cross-stitch has become my main activity after tea and dinner.
I don't know when, every day at a fixed point the third brother will call, two people in Shannan and Haibei talk a lot, a phone call usually lasts about an hour, hang up the phone before going to bed and always send a message, sometimes I always complain to him, tell him that he is okay and don't always call, he is so busy, the phone bill is so expensive. Every time I said that the phone bill was expensive, he would pay me the phone bill. That's it, if you don't answer the phone, you can't reply to the text message, otherwise there will always be a sense of guilt in your heart.
In the blink of an eye, it was the middle of the year, and the company received instructions from the superiors to organize employees to donate blood. My colleagues in the unit all looked at me with strange eyes. The first is that I think what a girl is donating blood for, and the second is that I think I am donating blood for welfare. In fact, at that time, I didn't know that there were benefits to donating blood.
The company sent a total of five comrades, and the other four were gay men except me. After donating blood, the company leaders invited us to dinner, and it turned out to be chicken soup. A bowl full of chicken soup with flowers, I don't want to drink it at all. Who would have expected that the leader specially filled me with a bowl, and said vigorously, "Drink it, comrades, you also contribute to the company." I'm still sitting next to the leader, it's not a problem if I don't drink, so I pretend to pick up the bowl and drink, it's okay to serve the bowl, one end is startled, and there is a chicken feather in the bowl. I feel so embarrassed that I can drink it.
Finally, the tortured banquet was over, and after the end of the ceremony, the director of the office took us to the supermarket and said that we would be given 300 yuan in benefits to each person to buy supplements. The director of the office said, "Let's be humane, 300 yuan per person, buy what you want."
This time, the comrades were all happy. Just buying supplements is not the point, the point is on the way back to the unit, and the director of the office said, "Each person will be given a subsidy of 1,000 yuan, and another week's vacation"
I couldn't sit still, "Director, don't deduct your salary during the holidays"
"Of course not"
"What are the formalities to be done?"
"No"
I immediately began to figure out what I was going to do for this week's vacation.
The next morning, I explained the reason to the department manager, picked up my bag, and got into the car home.
I don't know what it feels like to go home until I leave home, and I don't know what I miss until I leave.
I didn't inform anyone that I was going back. I wanted to surprise them. I didn't even go back to my own house and went straight to my brother's house. In addition to my parents, the person I want to see the most is the third brother, and if my brother is outside, I think I would like to see my brother even more. But it's not easy to see my brother. There was a hint of sadness in my heart.
On the way, I called the third brother: "Third brother, where are you?" ”
"At Wang Hao's house"
"You're at your brother's house so early"
He suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing: "Oh, the refrigerator at home is broken, I'll come over and take a look earlier." ”
"Oh, is that fixed? Will you leave in a moment? ”
"I, I. What's the matter with you, are you still checking the post? ”
"I didn't check the post, why should I check your post, it's okay to call and ask you. Let's hang up first. ”
With an extra 1,000 yuan subsidy, I went to my brother's house in luxury. Suddenly there was a special urge to see the third brother, it's good, he's here.
The third brother and the elder brother are discussing work matters.
The elder brother asked, "Hyosung called you?" ”
"Well, the headless one didn't say anything."
"Let's go to breakfast first, and then go to the company for a meeting."
Taxi soon arrived downstairs at my brother's house, I walked like a fly, and when I got to the door, I had the key, so I opened the door and entered. shouted "Third brother, I'll come back......"
I was stunned by what I saw.

I've thought about many scenarios and ways to see my brother again, and I've even thought about getting him out of prison, but now this scenario is something I didn't expect.
He and the third brother sat quietly eating together, as if nothing had happened, and his hair was no longer the same hairstyle as when he was in prison, so it seemed that he should not have been out for a day.
The moment I saw the two of them, I felt like I couldn't breathe and my heart was beating so fast.
They also looked up at me at the same time, and the scene was not warm and embarrassing.
The third brother came over and took the backpack on my shoulder, "Why did you come back, when did you come back?"
With tears in my eyes, I stared at the third brother's eyes and pointed at the brother who was sitting there, "That, that's my brother, right?" He came out early, didn't he? Why didn't you tell me? ”
"Hyosung, listen to me."
"I won't let him say it."
What a familiar voice, what a voice I missed, and the first words I heard were not what I imagined, and what I wanted to say to him was not what I imagined.
I slowly moved to his side, with tears on my face, "When did you come out?" Why don't you let the third brother tell me? Why don't you come and see me? If I don't come back suddenly today, when are you going to tell me? ”
We were almost eye level when my brother was sitting, and once he stood up, I could only look up at him.
He stood up and pushed me away, "Shen Jue, let's go to a meeting." ”
The heart is beating very fast, there is a feeling of being ignored, and there is a feeling of being particularly hot.
I rushed over and stopped at the door, "Don't let any of you go without answering my question." These words were shouted.
"Wang Hao, you accompany her, I'll go to the company first and postpone the meeting."
I stared at my brother so hard that he didn't look at me the whole time. I felt very uncomfortable, and I knocked over the five-flavor bottle, which was not a taste.
I sat in the car for a day and a night, and reversed the car once on the way, the car was in the early morning into the station, it was too late I didn't dare to take a taxi, so I have been sitting in the waiting hall until dawn, and I took a taxi to get here as soon as it dawned. Along the way, in order not to go to the toilet, I didn't eat or drink, and I just donated blood before getting on the bus, although it didn't get in the way, with my strong physique, it didn't really make a big difference.
But I was happily preparing to come to see the third brother, and I wanted him to invite me to eat something delicious, and now, at this moment, I didn't know what I should do or say except crying.
After a while, I seemed to understand something, and the tears were not pouring out.
wiped a handful of tears, "Brother, don't you want to see me?" You're not going to see me again, are you? ”
They didn't look up or speak.
"Okay, I see!"
snatched the bag from the third brother's hand and turned around and left.
As soon as he took a step and came back, he took out the key from his pocket and threw it at his brother, "Wang Hao, from today onwards, I, Ouyang Xiaoxing, will never bother you again, since you don't want to see it, don't worry, I will definitely not appear in front of you again." ”
At that time, he was so resolute.
When I went out and stood at the elevator entrance waiting for the elevator, I felt that the motivation to support me to rush back overnight was suddenly gone, and suddenly I fainted in front of me.
"Wang Hao, you have a sick brain. She has already seen you, why do you still ignore her, is there anything you can say no? Are you happy that she's gone like this? Are you at ease? ”
After saying that, the third brother chased him out, but he saw me lying on the ground.
"Hyosung, Hyosung, wake up, what's wrong with you?"
"Wang Hao, Wang Hao."
My brother heard the shouting and rushed out to see me. My brother was a soldier, and he still has first-aid knowledge, and he saw my pupil and saw the real eye on my arm, "It's okay, take it back to the house and sleep for a while"
The third brother carried me back to the room, and the brother asked him to put me on the bed in his bedroom. Aunt Zhang also followed.
"Aunt Zhang makes a glass of sugar water."
"Okay."
After a while, a glass of sugar water came, one helped me up, the other fed me to drink, and I didn't drink it all, and my brother asked Aunt Zhang to bring a glass of white water, and fed more than half of it.
In this way, the third brother helped me sit for a while, and the elder brother signaled that he could let me lie down.
After that they left the bedroom together.
The elder brother said, "Let's go, go to the company for a meeting." ”
"She's all like this, you still have the heart to have a meeting."
"She needs to rest, she can't wake up for a while, today's meeting must be held, let's talk about the key points first, I'll come back first when I'm done, and you will preside over the rest."
After saying that, both of them left.
I fell asleep in a daze, during which Aunt Zhang came in to see me, and when my lips were dry, she dipped me in water and wet my lips with a cotton swab.
I slept very deeply and had a dream. In my dream, my brother and I were there, and my third brother. Blue sky, white clouds, green grass. The golden sun shone on the earth, and I walked among them, holding their arms, swinging as I went, which was my favorite game. Walking and walking, I was the only one crying on the grass.
My brother hurried back from the meeting, and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at me, sometimes with the corners of my mouth raised, sometimes with tears in my eyes, and in a daze. It was late afternoon when I woke up again.
