Chapter 5 There is Providence in the Dark

In his last life, Ye Chen heard his mother talk about trivial matters in the mine on a long-distance phone call, but he didn't expect it to be a major matter of human life.

In this life, I have personally experienced this mining disaster, and the rights and wrongs are in front of me, and I must not let my father be this good old man and carry everything alone.

Taking the list of medicine expenses in Chen Jiefang's hand, Ye Chen calculated the amount and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Jiefang, in addition to these lists, are there any other lists?" ”

Chen Jiefang got up and took out his pocket, and took out three large amount of medicine bills.

After Ye Chen finished the calculation, he shocked everyone with one word.

"Today, the villagers who were lightly and seriously injured in the mine spent a total of 286 yuan, seven cents and three cents. I'll take this money on my father's behalf. ”

"What do you say about my man's death and Xiaokui's medical expenses?"

The words of the deceased's family asked Ye Chen.

Ye Chen glanced back at his second uncle Ye Jianjun who was sitting in the corner, and said with a sinking face: "The aftermath of the two Uncle Zhang and the expenses of the Xiaokui brothers are the big ones, if I let my father or the second uncle admit it, it will not make sense of reason or law." ”

"Big nephew, what do you mean by that? Aren't you old Ye family ready to take responsibility? ”

"Auntie, it's not that our old Ye family refuses to admit their mistakes. But human life is a matter of heaven, and no one dares to take on such a big responsibility in a vague way. ”

The family of the deceased cried: "Our old Zhang family died two heads of the family in one day, and there is no hope that the younger one will be able to live in the future." Eldest nephew, what do you want me to do with a woman's family? ”

"Auntie, the old mine in the back mountain has been confiscated for many years, and now the big guy is mining again, first, my second uncle picked it up, it's not right for him. Second, when you went to steal mines, didn't you think that there would be danger? ”

"It's not that the family is too poor to open the pot, otherwise who would take the risk."

Ye Chen reassured: "Poverty is not an excuse. Auntie, since the two Uncle Zhang are in a hurry, let's do the funeral in a beautiful way. As for the medical expenses of the Xiaokui brothers, let's think about a way? ”

Chen Jiefang, who was still standing on the side of the deceased's family, was awakened by Ye Chen's words.

At the root of this matter, it is not the poor.

If the stalemate continues, no one will be able to get good in the end.

"yes, girl. What the eldest nephew said is reasonable, the deceased is the greatest, so I will go and pull two good coffins back. Let the big Zhang and Xiao Zhang brothers go on the road with peace of mind. ”

The family members of the deceased nodded their heads weepingly, reluctantly accepting the result.

Ye Jianguo planned for the worst at first, that is, to take the main responsibility for the accident for his younger brother Ye Jianjun.

But Ye Chen came forward and analyzed the division of responsibility for the whole thing in a few words, and turned the big thing into a small one.

Ye Jianjun, who was sitting in the corner, saw that things were slowing down, and his whole person relaxed.

"Brother Jianguo, I'm going to deal with the aftermath of the Zhang brothers, you can recuperate with peace of mind first."

Ye Chen took the initiative to ask, "Uncle Jiefang, if your aunt's family needs any help, just call me." ”

"It's enough for the eldest nephew to have this heart, and I'll let you know when the funeral comes."

"Uncle Lao Jiefang."

When everyone saw Chen Jiefang leaving, they also dispersed.

Lu Chunfang helped his wife lean on the head of the bed, sat on the stool and said worriedly: "Jianguo, what do you say about the more than 200 medical expenses?" ”

"If you want me to say that Xiaochen is too young, he dares to promise anyone."

Ye Jianjun's help made Ye Jianguo hateful.

"Xiao Chen did the right thing. If it weren't for him holding up the scene for our old Ye family today, you would have waited to go to the fence. ”

"But the more than 200 medical expenses, even if you don't eat or drink for a year, you can't save enough."

Ye Jianguo said angrily to Ye Jianjun's hatred of iron and steel: "Look at you bear-like!" If it weren't for my own brother, I wouldn't have bothered to care about your mess. ”

Ye Jianjun, who was being trained, sat aside silently.

Ye Jianguo laboriously took out a small notebook from his coat pocket, on which he wrote down some details of his personal debts and property sales over the years.

Turning the page of a new place, I took out my pen and tearfully added the number of debts owed this time.

This scene moved Ye Chen.

Ye Chen didn't expect that his own livelihood in the previous life would be exchanged for half a lifetime of suffering from his parents.

Decades have passed, and the days of borrowing can be imagined.

God has a certain number in the dark.

What I saw and heard when I came back this time is something that I remember in my heart.

took the small notebook from his father Ye Jianguo, Ye Chen helped him lie down, and walked alone to the corridor outside the ward.

I found a corner where no one was around, and quietly looked at my father's beautiful handwriting.

There are twenty-one pages, and every word on it is the bitter tears of my parents.

Lu Chunfang found the corner of the corridor and saw Ye Chen alone in a daze, so he stepped forward and said with a wry smile: "Why did you run here alone, it's easy to find your mother." ”

Ye Chen hurriedly closed the small notebook in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's too stuffy in the ward, come out and breathe." ”

Glancing down at the small notebook in Ye Chen's hand, Lu Chunfang said with relief: "You don't have to take the matter of father and mother to heart, when the two years are good, our family will turn over." ”

"My mother is still so optimistic, my father is blessed to marry you."

In order not to put too much pressure on her son, Lu Chunfang quickly changed the topic.

"When you were in the United States, how about the little girl introduced by the second aunt? When will my mother be able to drink your wedding wine? ”

Speaking of Jenny Li, Ye Chen didn't bother to describe what happened between them.

But when my mother asked, sooner or later this matter would be pierced through this layer of window paper.

Just tell the truth, and dispel her thoughts as soon as possible, and save trouble in the future.

After chatting about the experience of studying abroad in the United States, Lu Chunfang's face was full of distress for her son Ye Chen.

"I can't imagine that Lao Li's family still has such a shameless woman! Xiaochen, I'm so glad you didn't want her. Otherwise, if you marry into the door, our old Ye family will lose face. ”

"I'm glad I made the right decision."

"Now our life in Peach Blossom Village is difficult, and every family is tightening their belts to live. You're back now, and my mother doesn't want you to waste your knowledge by farming. If you go to the town and find a primary school to teach, it's better than being a farmer. ”

Ye Chen understood Lu Chunfang's intention to arrange this.

It is a reluctant move to return to the village to work as a farmer, but if the village cannot get out of poverty, my father will definitely continue to work for the livelihood of the big family.

In this way, the rest of his parents' lives were firmly locked in Peach Blossom Village.

"Mother, you don't have to worry about my life. My son is coming back this time to fulfill your and Dad's wishes. ”

Ye Chen's words made Lu Chunfang confused.

"What are you talking about, stinky boy. I'm your mother! Even if your father doesn't care about you, I, a mother, won't ignore it. ”

Ye Chen hugged Lu Chunfang and said softly: "Mother, I miss you." ”

Lu Chunfang was stunned and gently patted Ye Chen's arm.

"Silly boy. Mother in. ”
