Chapter 10, the bracelet

I got up and went to the study, where there was also an old photo on the desk, exactly the same as the old house, except that this one was the original.

Yang Yi's hand caressed the gold bracelet on the woman's wrist, the phoenix pattern, and the old style.

The woman in the photo is his grandmother, and when he was a child, his parents were busy with their careers, so they lived with his grandmother.

In my memory, my grandmother always carried this bracelet and told him about my grandfather, saying that she was poor at that time and wanted to support my grandfather's family, so she sold all the dowry, and my grandfather later spent all his savings, and only bought this gold bracelet for the rest of his life to return to his grandmother.

When her grandfather died early, she often sat in front of the bracelet for an afternoon, muttering her grandfather's name.

She said that she didn't care if the dowry could come back, she only cared that he left him early.

The love at that time made Yang Yi yearn for and indulge in.

Later, my grandmother was seriously ill, and my sister was greedy for fun, so she accidentally broke her grandmother's bracelet, and he didn't dare to let her know, so he took it behind her back to repair it.

This side had just been repaired, and bad news came from my grandmother's side, and he was walking down the road with a bracelet, and the car was too fast and hit the fence on the side of the road.

He was in a coma for nearly a month, and finally did not see his grandmother for the last time, and the bracelet was also lost, and he was not able to accompany his grandmother for the last time, nor was he able to accompany his grandmother when he was buried.

Later, he went to the hospital that first aided him, and the surveillance saw that Meng Xiao had taken it.

He went to her and hinted at asking about the bracelet, but she pretended not to know.

When the two got along, he gradually liked her, wanted to give her the last chance, gave her 50,000 yuan, and hoped that she could look at the face of the money and return the bracelet to him.

But Meng Xiao avoided talking about it and gave the money to her brother in the countryside.

Yang Yi was gradually disappointed, and he couldn't let go of the little bit of excitement for Meng Xiao, so the love between the two should have been that he spoiled her, and finally became Meng Xiao's unilateral poverty.

Now that three years have passed, Meng Xiao is proving every moment that she is not a greedy person, and he no longer simply likes Meng Xiao.

He wanted them to have a future, but he couldn't get over the bracelet.

He can do whatever his girlfriend wants, but Meng Xiao is not qualified now.

……

Meng Xiao was awakened by the sound of the phone, and looked at his watch It was only five o'clock in the morning.

The caller ID was a string of numbers, Meng Xiao recognized it as Meng Xun's number, and with the annoyance of being woken up, Meng Xiao hung up.

The call came again, and Meng Xiao hung up.

hung up three in a row, Meng Xiao was so noisy that he didn't feel sleepy, his mobile phone always vibrated for fear of disturbing his roommates, so he got out of bed and went to the corridor to pick it up.

"Meng Xun, are you finished?! I said we don't have a relationship, I'm not your sister! "I haven't been in touch for three years, and there must be something wrong with suddenly contacting her.

"Hello, this is X Central Hospital, your brother was beaten by a group of thugs last night, this morning a kind passerby found him lying on the side of the road and sent to the hospital, now his condition is very troublesome, please come over as soon as possible."

On the phone, it was the cold voice of a middle-aged woman, reporting that Meng Xun's current situation was not optimistic.

Meng Xiao couldn't give up, and hurriedly put on his clothes and rushed back.

The time was too early, he could only take a long-distance bus, and it took four hours to arrive, Meng Xiao rushed to the hospital, Meng Xun was beaten and his face was full of injuries, his cheeks were swollen and he couldn't see his original appearance, he was arranged in an ordinary ward, with a hanging bottle in his hand, and the person had not woken up yet.

"You are Meng Xiao's guardian?" A nurse spotted her and accused her unhappily, "How did you do this sister?" My brother didn't come home all night and didn't look for him to come home, and he didn't answer your call. ”

Obviously, it was the nurse who had just called, and she was venting her dissatisfaction with the morning call, Meng Xiao apologized and excused herself and said that she was busy.

"What's more important than your brother?! He was almost out of breath when he was brought in, so hurry up and ask the doctor how your brother treats him. The nurse couldn't get used to Meng Xiao, but the word "busy" was too common in the hospital, and after venting her grievances, she asked Meng Xiao to go to the attending doctor quickly.

The doctor was a middle-aged man, holding the film he had taken for Meng Xun earlier, and said: "I have broken three ribs, my left forearm and right leg are fractured, and I can't rule out internal organ damage. ”

Meng Xiao nodded and went to pay the fee and go through the formalities.

After all the formalities were completed and he came back, Meng Xun had already been pushed out for examination, and Meng Xiao was sitting alone in the ward and waiting. The people in the same ward said that Meng Xun was sent in and never woke up, and the hospital could not find his family, so he only did a basic examination, and he never took care of it again after hanging up the bottle of glucose.

Meng Xun's mobile phone was left alone on the hospital bed, Meng Xiao picked up Meng Xun's mobile phone, which was given to him by his father when he first entered high school three years ago. Meng Xun had a new mobile phone, so he gave her the one she was tired of playing, and she never had the money to change it, so she used it until now.

The phone case is worn and worn, and the inside is very clean, and there is not even WeChat. I think it's because I wear it all the time, but I don't use it much.

Check the address book, does he have any other relatives to take care of, she wants to go back to school and doesn't want to stay too long.

There are three contacts in the phone, the dead parents and her, and there is not even a classmate. The call log is also very simple, the most recent call was made to her last night, and the last call was made by her three years ago.

At that time, she gave 50,000 yuan and called him to cut off relations.

Thinking about Meng Xun's unrecognizable face just now, Meng Xiao remembered the phone call last night. He must have been beaten and forced his consciousness to ask her for help.

Meng Xiao felt wordless sadness in his heart, this fool, don't look for an ambulance, look for her.

The mobile phone desktop is a "family photo" of the four of them when they were very young, at that time this family had just been formed, the stepmother was not bad to her, the father held Meng Xiao, the stepmother held the young Meng Xun, at that time he was still called Zhou Xun, and he followed her and called her sister.

This photo, somewhat blurry and shaky, was taken from a photograph.

Meng Xiao looked at this photo in a daze, her father was still young at that time, took her hand, and told her that this was a new mother and would take care of her in the future. How kind the stepmother was at that time, how ruthless she was when she changed her face and sent her away.

Obviously, she begged her, she could sleep on the balcony, give the room to Zhou Xun, and not take up a little space for herself.

But Dad said that the neighbors would laugh at him for not being able to raise a child.

Send away your own daughter, and the neighborhood won't laugh at it?

This house was a pension room assigned to her by her mother in the factory for her brave sacrifice, if she knew that her daughter was kicked out by others, would she have saved the child at that time?

Meng Xiao didn't know, there was nowhere to ask.
