Chapter 31: Life and Death!

Gu Yu ran towards Ruan Tanhui's house like crazy, because he suddenly remembered a major event in his previous life.

In the previous life, shortly after the start of school on the morning of Monday, September 1, the head teacher Zhao Xiuling was giving Gu Yu and them ideological education in the new classroom on the third floor.

In the middle, several female workers from the Minghai City Match Factory suddenly broke in outside, and they were all colleagues of Lu Xiuqin, Ruan Tanhui's mother.

They cried and told the meat ball a bad news: Lu Xiuqin was riding a bicycle to work when she collided with a Jiefang truck with failed brakes on the newly opened Xinjiang Bridge and was killed......

A week later, Routuan, who had returned to school after the funeral, wrote one of the most touching essays in his life, "My Mother".

When the Chinese teacher Xia Minquan asked the meat group to recite this text in person, the whole class, including Mr. Xia Minquan, everyone cried. The female classmates cried like tears one by one......

"Boss, what are you smoking? Be all abroad! The meat ball glanced at Gu Yu's distant figure, turned his head and continued on his way to the school.

If you are late on the first day of school, the head teacher Zhao Xiuling will start a rush, and the consequences will be serious.

After running wildly for five minutes, at the mouth of Henghe Street and Alley, Gu Yu saw the back of Lu Xiuqin who had just gone out from a distance.

Because of the opening of the newly completed Xinjiang Bridge today, Lu Xiuqin's journey and time to work to the match factory in Minghai City, ** District, on the other side of the river have been greatly shortened, and she is in a particularly good mood today.

She happily rode the 26-inch Phoenix brand girls' bicycle, humming the song "The Story of Spring", and rode hard in the direction of Xinjiang Bridge.

"Aunt Lu, Aunt Lu!" Gu Yu shouted loudly behind her from afar.

However, Lu Xiuqin didn't hear Gu Yu's shouts behind her. Soon, she was riding her bicycle around and merging from Yokogawa Street into Beltway.

Huancheng Avenue is one of the main roads in Minghai City, and two or three kilometers further is the starting point of the newly completed Xinjiang Bridge.

This time is the peak time for work, and the Ring Road is full of traffic and extremely noisy.

"Aunt Lu, Aunt Lu!" Gu Yu continued to chase after her.

But the gongs and drums and the noise on the road covered Gu Yu's shout, and Lu Xiuqin didn't notice that someone was chasing her behind her.

Although the distance between the two is getting closer and closer, the huge bicycle flow in the follow-up separates Gu Yu and Lu Xiuqin.

Three or four hundred meters down is the starting point of the bridgehead of Xinjiang Bridge, and in a hurry, separated by several bicycles, Gu Yu struggled to smash the lunch box in his hand to Lu Xiuqin in front.

"Oops", Gu Yu's lunch box hit Lu Xiuqin's waist impartially.

Caught off guard, Lu Xiuqin fell to the ground with her bicycle.

"Xiao Wei, what are you doing?"

"Xiao Crooked, smashing people like this will kill people, you know!"

"Xiao Wei, do you have a grudge against this lady?"

When Lu Xiuqin fell to the ground, Gu Yu behind her had been controlled by several enthusiastic citizens who acted bravely.

Touching the broken knee, Lu Xiuqin sat on the ground and raised her head, and saw Gu Yu behind her, who was being crusaded and criticized by enthusiastic citizens.

"Gu Yu, is that you?" After seeing that it was Gu Yu, she opened her mouth wide in surprise, and then said loudly to those enthusiastic citizens, "Thank you, he is my son, there may be some misunderstanding in the middle!" Everyone is gone, let's go to work. ”

"Ah, it's your son? You're a naughty boy! ”

"Oh, you have to discipline and discipline your naughty son!"

Everyone heard that it was Lu Xiuqin's son, and after saying a few words, they dispersed.

"Aunt Lu, I really didn't mean to......" Gu Yu blushed, his head was covered with beads of sweat, he didn't know how to explain his actions to Lu Xiuqin just now.

"Xiaoyu, Auntie knows that you are a good boy. But what's the matter with your lunch box? ”

Lu Xiuqin was also confused. Because she knew the misfortune and hardship of Gu Yu's family, she usually took good care of Gu Yu, and sometimes occasionally left Gu Yu to have a meal at their house.

"Aunt Lu, I have been chasing you and calling you from behind just now, you may not have heard it. As soon as I was in a hurry just now, the lunch box in my hand accidentally flew out, and it happened to hit you, so embarrassing! Gu Yu could only explain randomly.

"Xiaoyu, why are you chasing me?" Lu Xiuqin said curiously.

"My grandmother wants to ask you to buy some cheap matches...... Gu Yu could only explain.

The predecessor of Minghai Match Factory, where Lu Xiuqin worked, was called Zhengda Match Factory, which was founded in 1907 at the end of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, and was a relatively early factory in China's match industry.

In 1955, the original Zhengda Match Factory implemented a public-private partnership. In 1966, Zhengda Match Factory became a state-owned enterprise, and the name of the factory was changed to "Minghai Match Factory", which is also the only state-owned match factory in Minghai City.

"Xiaoyu, I want matches, Auntie's factory distributes free welfare matches every month, and I'll give you some when the time comes."

Hearing Gu Yu say that she wanted to ask her to buy cheap matches, after Lu Xiuqin heard this, she was really angry and funny, for a few boxes of such cheap matches, then you don't have to chase so closely in the morning, and smash my lunch box, right?

"Thank you, Auntie!"

Gu Yu hurriedly ran over, and after picking up the bicycle, he helped Lu Xiuqin to stand up from the asphalt road: "Aunt Lu, are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay......" Lu Xiuqin's knee was faintly painful, but she couldn't have a seizure, so she had to force her face, "Xiaoyu, Auntie is going to work, and if you delay it any longer, you will be late, so you should go back to school early!" ”

"Okay, thank you, Auntie."

While the two were talking, suddenly, there was an unusually miserable cry from the Xinjiang Bridge in the distance, and people fled from the bridge in a panic.

The bridge was full of panicked crowds......

Then, someone shouted, "Oh no, no, the car is crushing!" ”

A few minutes later, police cars and ambulances roared in......

As a result, the new road where Lu Xiuqin went to work was blocked.

Fleeing from the bridge, terrified people gathered around to recount the shocking scene just now: a Jiefang truck was going downhill, and the brakes failed, crushing several cyclists. The scene was drenched in blood and miserable......

Listening to people's stories, Lu Xiuqin was frightened into a cold sweat at this time, and she had long forgotten the pain in her knees.

She thought to herself: If Gu Yu hadn't smashed her lunch box just now, she would probably be one of the victims?

When Gu Yu rushed back to the school, the fifteenth middle school, it was already a quarter past nine in the morning, and he was a full 45 minutes late.

Zhao Xiuling, the head teacher, is giving a speech to the students in the new classroom of Class 303 on the third floor.

"Report!" At the door, Gu Yu shouted loudly.

"Gu Yu! You don't have to come in, stand at the door! Zhao Xiuling said sharply.
