Chapter Forty-Seven: Heaven Anger and Resentment
After helping Lu Jisheng wrap up his wounds, Jingsheng asked him if he was injured elsewhere.
And Lu Jisheng just waved his hand and put his clothes back on with a nonchalant expression.
"You stay here, don't wander around, I'll go see how the wounded are doing."
"Wait," Jing Sheng grabbed his arm, "I'll go with you." ”
Jing Sheng's eyes were determined, she didn't want to sit on the sidelines anymore.
The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and Lu Jisheng finally agreed: "Yes, but you have to be in my sight all the time." Take your bag and come with me. ”
"Okay." Jingsheng packed everything into his bag and got up to follow Lu Jisheng's footsteps.
Ye Xin came over and reported the situation to Lu Jisheng.
"There are five seriously injured here, twelve lightly injured, and a few missing who have not been found...... Most of the people who weren't hurt were helping. ”
"Very good, stabilize the seriously injured first, and try to hold out until the rescue team comes."
Ye Xin nodded solemnly, her clothes and hands were already covered with blood, and she was still carrying some torn clothes in her hands, which were used as temporary bandages to cover the wounds.
"I'll help you." Jiang Yun took the pieces of clothes from Ye Xin's hands.
"Thank you." Ye Xin didn't have time to look at him, and ran directly to the next wounded.
People came and went, and some people held mobile phones as flashlights to bandage the injured.
"I'll do it." Jing Sheng squatted down and helped hold his mobile phone for lighting.
At this moment, it is much quieter than before, and everyone is glad that they are still alive while comforting and encouraging each other.
Jing Sheng was so focused on what he was doing that he didn't notice that the bag at his feet was vibrating slightly.
N City, inside an ordinary residential building.
Zhang Yimei listened to the busy sound on the other end of the phone, and the anxiety in her heart deepened a little.
"Oh, Jingsheng, answer the phone quickly! Mom is dying! ”
The busy tone on the other end of the phone ended, followed by a series of cold electronic tones: "The user you are calling is busy, please dial again later." Zhang Yimei stomped her foot unwillingly, and continued to fight.
"Jingsheng...... Answer the phone...... Tell mom you're okay! Zhang Yimei's voice was already crying, and she couldn't wait to fly to M City now.
In order to save money, the TV is no longer turned on at home. After Zhang Yimei finished work every day, she would go to the vegetable market to buy the cheapest vegetables of the day and go home to cook for her husband, who was already drunk and unconscious.
Her husband Chen Xuefeng has been addicted to gambling in the past two years, and has lost all his family money in the past week.
TV, computer, mobile phone, fan, air conditioner, and even sometimes the refrigerator is turned off in order to help Chen Xuefeng pay off his gambling debts.
She stomped her foot harder, tears streaming uncontrollably.
She should have called as soon as the earthquake struck. Zhang Yimei's heart was full of regret.
If she hadn't turned off all the appliances and didn't buy the town's newspaper, she wouldn't have learned so late that there was an earthquake in City M.
If it weren't for the fact that she had to go out to take out the garbage to get some air in order to avoid her husband's endless demand for money, I heard the neighbors' comments and learned that such a terrible disaster had happened to my daughter.
"Hey Lao Zhang, is your daughter studying in college in M City?"
"Ouch, why are you still so laid-back, you know there's a big earthquake there, right?"
"What? You don't know? You haven't watched the news, have you? But there was a big earthquake, the houses collapsed, and even the schools were damaged...... Hey, don't go! ”
Zhang Yimei threw down the garbage like crazy and ran home, slammed the door with her body, threw herself on the head of the bed and opened the phone with trembling hands.
The phone only turns on when they reach out to their daughter.
In the past, their mother and daughter would chat happily for a while, but since Chen Xuefeng started gambling, the content of their call has become that the family needs money. You have to hurry up and make money on your own.
After turning on the phone, Zhang Yimei saw the two missed calls on it.
The caller is a daughter.
She immediately dialed back, only to hear a barrage of busy tones.
"Answer the phone, baby...... Answer the phone! She sat on the edge of the bed, muttering in a pleading tone.
She imagined countless possibilities in her mind, maybe Jingsheng's phone had dropped? Maybe it's... Is there no signal? It should be fine, right...... It's going to be fine, right......
"What a pick-up! What are you muttering there? Give me the money! Chen Xuefeng was full of alcohol and walked into the bedroom leisurely.
In the past, when Zhang Yimei saw her husband like this, she even coaxed and deceived him to tell him that she had no money and saved some flowers, but now her mind is all on her daughter in the distance, she is in a hurry, and she has no heart to coax him.
"Money, money, money, you know you want money! Have you ever raised this family as a man?! Zhang Yimei stood up and yelled at him sharply.
"Did you know that there was a big earthquake in the place where our daughter was staying! Right now... You don't answer my phone now..."Zhang Yimei's mood completely collapsed, she covered her face and cried loudly.
"You know betting! What else would you do besides betting! Go save my daughter! There you go! Go and bring her back! Zhang Yimei threw her anger at Chen Xuefeng and pushed him hard.
"What a noise!" Chen Xuefeng replied in a delirious manner, "How can I go?" Walk over there? You don't have to buy a ticket yet! Come on, give me the money, and I'll go..."
Smack-
Zhang Yimei slapped her husband with all her strength, but at this time she calmed down a little: "To you?" I'll give it to you today, and you can use it to gamble in the next second! Have you ever cared for your daughter? Do you not care at all if she dies?! ”
Chen Xuefeng was a little stunned by her slap, and he was half sober, you must know that if it was before, it would be impossible to treat him like this with Zhang Yimei's cowardly character.
"Dead? She's dead? Chen Xuefeng covered half of his face and asked her in surprise.
"I don't know......" Zhang Yimei covered her face and cried again, "I don't know ......"
Chen Xuefeng looked at his wife who was sitting on the ground. There was only one old lamp still on in the room, and except for Zhang Yimei's cry, the air was quiet and terrifying.
"Huh, dead?" Chen Xuefeng reacted after being stunned for a few seconds. "Isn't that right? We paid her the insurance money, and we can take it out, and then I will have the money and can ......."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Yimei frantically pounced on him, punching and slapping him in the face and body.
"My mother, you conscienceless dog, that's your own daughter, do you know?!" She roared, crying in despair, and kept hitting Chen Xuefeng.
"Why are you so cold-blooded! All you think about is money! You're going to gamble with the money your daughter got in exchange for her life, aren't you? ”
Chen Xuefeng covered his head and shouted, "Don't fight!" All I have to do is win and I'll be back! When the time comes, it's not enough to buy her a better coffin! ”
Zhang Yimei suddenly stopped all movements of her body, and one hand was still raised in the air.
Her face was full of tears, her eyes widened, and she looked at Chen Xuefeng quietly.
"How's that, okay? When the time comes, you can also take the money to live a good life, my casino friend said, I just have bad luck, this time the shock this time, I must have transferred, when the money is earned, I will go chic. ”
Chen Xuefeng's face was full of beautiful visions for the future.
Zhang Yimei slowly lowered her fist.
"How? Is there still battery on the phone? Call the insurance company and ask, how much can I pay? ”
Zhang Yimei still stayed where she was and didn't move.
"Why don't you move, go, go get your phone! Uh......"
Zhang Yimei suddenly stretched out her hand and pinched Chen Xuefeng's neck fiercely.
She didn't speak again, no matter how Chen Xuefeng struggled, she just refused to let go.
Without her daughter, the last bit of hope in her life is gone. She's had enough.
The person in front of her is the person she has lived with for most of her life, and a person who has become hopeless.
Zhang Yimei's eyes were completely red, risking murderous intent.
I don't have a daughter, and you don't want to eat her human blood steamed buns.
Chen Xuefeng struggled, he used all his strength, broke Zhang Yimei's fingers one by one, and knocked her to the ground with one punch.
Chen Xuefeng, who had regained his oxygen, gasped for breath twice and quickly got up. With his greater strength, he made up two more punches on Zhang Yimei.
Zhang Yimei has left everything behind at the moment, she feels that there is no hope in this world, she has gone crazy.
She couldn't feel the pain of her fist hitting her body, she just threw herself at Chen Xuefeng again and again.
Chen Xuefeng scuffled with her.
Slowly, Chen Xuefeng also lost his patience, he caught Zhang Yimei, who pounced again, lifted her in the air, and then fell heavily towards the ground.
There was a loud bang, and the world fell silent.
The back of Zhang Yimei's head hit the edge of the bedside table.
Blood flowed down her head, over her eyes that she hadn't had time to close, and through the corners of her mouth where she was still reading Jingsheng's name.
Chen Xuefeng broke out in a cold sweat, and he stepped forward to probe Zhang Yimei's snort.
She's dead.
