Sun Chaohua was taken aback when he heard his father Sun Laowan say that something more unexpected had happened, and he thought to himself, the second uncle is a face-saving person, he has always been high and lonely, and he missed a marriage, just because he is a perfectionist, and his impression of the original favorite girl has become a stereotype.

Later, at the urging of my grandmother, I had to agree to get married, "You are the second child, don't always worry about the impossibility, the third child has been married in front of you, do you want to let the fourth child, who is nearly twenty years younger than you, also marry in front of you?" Don't let the township party poke your backbone, saying that I, the mother, abused you, once the reputation spreads, how will a family behave? Who would dare to say kiss to the fourth child. ”

"It's a big deal, I won't get married, anyway, there are older brothers and younger brothers who are married, and they can complete the task of family inheritance." The second uncle said that whether he got married or not did not matter to the inheritance of the family.

When your grandmother heard this, she scolded angrily, "Bastard, is it easy for the family to provide for you to go to school?" Finally, there is a literate and hyphenated teacher at home, we are also a little face-saving in the eyes of others, if even you look down on yourself, how can others look at you differently, from ancient times to the present, disloyal and unfilial, no queen is great, do you want to open our family first. ”

Your second uncle, under the scolding of your grandmother, agreed to get married, and finally had a pleasing one, and when he got married, he let him have both children and daughters, so that he felt that he could be worthy of my grandmother's worries and hard work.

In addition to being happy, he suddenly appeared, the second aunt did not live with the second uncle, and unexpectedly conceived a child, the second uncle already had doubts, this was already like a bolt from the blue for him, how could something worse happen, it was not the second uncle's life.

According to his father's little memories, Sun Chaohua carefully analyzed, it is not difficult to imagine that the second uncle may have a feeling of pain.

Thinking of this, he didn't dare to ask what was going on? At this time, his mood was very complicated, he wanted to know, but also worried about what happened and the extent of the blow to the second uncle.

His complicated eyes and fear were unabashedly hung on his face, and Sun Laowan still discovered it, "Some things will not change because you are willing or not, whether you like it or not, what should come or come." ”

With a painful expression, Sun Laowan reluctantly said what happened later.

"After your second uncle became the vice principal of the primary school, he didn't want to face your second aunt's betrayal of him, although there is no real evidence, but it is an indisputable fact that the child is not his. In order to escape, he took advantage of the commune's requirement to ask teachers above the vice principal level of each school to implement the requirement of rotation in different schools, and actively participated in this activity and went to the commune's central primary school to serve as the vice principal. ”

"So the second uncle was transferred at that time to escape, I have the impression that at that time, I was already twelve, and I thought he was for gilding, and he came back to become a public teacher."

"In fact, at that time, he could not participate at all, firstly, because people were required to participate in public teachers, and did not require private principals to participate in this activity, and secondly, his lumbar intervertebral disc herniation was serious, and he often felt numbness and pain."

"I see, he was hit hard and depressed."

Sun Laowan shook his head at Sun Chaohua's statement, "What you said is only one aspect, in fact, when I went to send him something, he once said that he had this accidental feeling, and I thought he was overworking and causing bad feelings." ”

"I heard my second uncle tell me that he worked very hard at that time, and in order to catch up with other classmates, he often studied for more than twelve hours a day?"

"I sent him something, saw other classmates, and leisurely learning to walk around, but saw that he was always gnawing on the nest head, while looking at the book, until I shouted a few times he agreed, I let him combine work and rest, but he said, big brother can't do it, I went to school too late, I have to catch up with the progress, he relied on his hard work in primary school, consciously a higher level of courses, don't understand to ask the seniors, just like that, passed the exam, jumped two levels, only to shorten the study period."

"The second uncle just has a bad chance, and he was born at the wrong time."

Sun Laowan heard his son sigh for his second brother, "That's it, in this life, it's not enough to rely on hardships and hard work, but also to have the opportunity to love, when the opportunity comes, you can't get rid of it if you want to, on the other hand, bad luck is coming, and you can't hide if you want to." ”

In order to let Sun Chaohua believe that he was right, there was nothing to doubt, and he also took the fifth uncle's study, and came to say, "Let's take your fifth uncle as an example, he is the same age as your second uncle, but he enrolled five years earlier than him, which should also be due to his poor academic performance, he studied for one more year in primary school and one more year in junior high school, but he still took the secondary school exam, and it is not that his family has a thick foundation and has money to provide for him." ”

"How is the second uncle's life in the Central Primary School?"

"He is the vice principal in charge of life, and there are many public teachers in the central primary school, so the food is okay, but he still doesn't want to go home on weekends, and he only comes back once a month."

"Isn't that good? not only avoided the second aunt, but also made himself settle down, thinking about how to face the second aunt in the future, he couldn't always go on like this, it was not good for them and the children? ”

"Your second uncle originally thought about it like this, but there was an accident that he couldn't even predict?"

Sun Laowan changed his serious expression, and recalled very sadly, "There are unforeseen circumstances, your second uncle's lumbar disc herniation is extremely serious, and he suddenly lost sensation in both legs, and was admitted to the commune hospital. ”

"Later, your mother and I took turns to serve for a month, and your second uncle finally woke up from death," Sun Chaohua remembered his childhood memories and responded to his father.

Seeing Sun Laowan say this, Sun Chaohua said, "I still seem to have the impression that it was the agricultural Dazhai movement at that time, during the vigorous development of the school, the school often gave us holidays, I came to see the second uncle with my mother many times, I remember from our home, only to build a gravel road, high in the middle, low on both sides, although it rained, but after the rain the weather was clear, the road was very good." ”

"After your second uncle woke up, his lower throat felt numb and he couldn't move, and the doctor suggested going to Xijing University Hospital for a reexamination, but your second uncle resolutely refused, saying that he was a private teacher and had no ability to go to a big hospital for a reexamination, and asked to insist on treatment in the commune hospital; The doctor had no choice but to follow his request, but he still couldn't stay for another month, got up and moved, and suggested going home while taking medicine and massage, hoping for a good miracle; I heard that your second uncle may be paralyzed in bed for a long time, and your second uncle feels that there is no hope for life in the future, so he asks to go back to his parents' house at this time, on the grounds that he has not returned home for three years. ”

Sun Laowan said to Sun Chaohua, "Your grandmother is to your second aunt, and soon after she got married, she matched your second uncle to split up the family, and she has always been obsessed with it. At this time, your second uncle's heart was broken, so he made up his mind, saying that if he went back, he would not come back, and that he could only take the second child with him if he wanted to leave. After your second aunt left, it was basically me and your mother who took care of her, and your grandmother often came to see her, after all, it was her own son, although she had thoughts about the weakness of her separation, but compared to her son's condition at this time, it was insignificant. ”

"No wonder my second uncle is more concerned about my studies than his own children, and he always says that your kindness cannot be reciprocated." Sun Chaohua remembered what his second uncle often said to him, which was an affirmation of his father's statement.

"People have the desire to live in times of despair, and their spiritual strength is sometimes better than medical treatment, maybe your second uncle, and the concern of two children, the belief in living for yourself and living for your children, moved God. After three months of insisting on taking medicine, hot towels every day, and massaging his legs every day, he was able to stand up again. ”

"This is a great thing," Sun Chaohua exclaimed excitedly after listening to the second uncle's miraculous resurrection experience.

"Half a year later, your second aunt listened to our relatives in a neighboring village to inquire, saying that the second uncle was getting better, and she led the second uncle back in a gray way. Your second uncle was disheartened at the moment, but when he saw that his daughter was ten years old and the eldest was eight years old, he forgave him on the surface, but he did not forget this kind of hatred in his heart. ”

"Second Uncle's approach is a bit extreme, but it's understandable." Sun Chaohua defended the second uncle's approach.

"Now that you know this, Tianjie is also older, don't say it."

Sun Chaohua patted his father on the chest and swore an oath, "I understand, let him be an eternal secret!" ”

"But I'm worried about something else?"

"What's the matter?"

"I'm worried, if the doctor's judgment at that time was correct, what if your second uncle's illness recurs later?"
