3· The trolley case is to blame

I looked at my watch, and it was almost twelve o'clock. I had brought a loaf of bread for lunch, but in the morning I gave it to a beggar under the bridge as I passed a flyover near the station, although I could tell from his face that he wanted cash instead of bread, but I was too embarrassed to take it back. Actually, I was stingy most of the time, because I used to live worse than a beggar – a beggar could still beg for something, but I didn't even have a place to beg. I would do that just to see that beggar with a lame leg, and for some reason, he reminded me of my father.

I've never met my father.

My father died in an accident, and no one knew what happened that day, not even the second brother, who was the only one present. That day, the second brother was removing the cooked embryos from the shelves one by one in the cave on the nine mountains, when he suddenly heard his father calling him eagerly: "Second tiger! Erhu, where are you? ”

The second brother hung out his brain and replied unhurriedly: "I'm here!" What's the matter? ”

"Run! The kiln is collapsing! The father shouted anxiously.

As soon as the second brother heard this, he threw away the plain embryo, and ran out, and when he got out of the hole, he realized that his father was still inside. Father is born with long and short legs, walking with a limp, the neighbors of Tao Town call him Liu Dawan to his face, and call him Liu Da Lame behind his back, he is not good at walking, not to mention running, the second brother turned around and wanted to go back to the cave to help his father, when his father saw this, he hurriedly raised his hand and shouted: "Don't come in!" Hurry back, hurry! The father shuffled and staggered like a penguin, and his steps were exaggerated and funny. The second brother hesitated, and suddenly, with a bang, the kiln collapsed. Everything was only in an instant, and the picture finally froze on the figure of the father leaning like a bow and shooting an eagle owl. In an instant, there was only a pile of bricks and dirt in front of me, and a curling cloud of dust and smoke rising from the slam.

When it was close to Qingming, my mother picked mugwort to make a youth league, and my eldest brother carried water at home, set up pots, and helped with some hard work. There were not many people on the Nine Mountains, and at noon, even if there were, they all went back to lunch, and the second brother shouted that no one answered, he cried and shouted while digging the soil with his bare hands. When the people found out, the second brother had already become a little tiger with crazy hair, his eyes were red, and his two paws were dripping with blood, he didn't realize it, he just slashed like a groundhog, everyone persuaded him not to listen, he couldn't stop pulling, and in the end, the four big men worked together to hold him down.

When my father was gone, I was only half a year old, and the blind man's prediction that "before I was six years old, my parents would die" had already been half fulfilled. Everyone in Taozhen sighed, poor Liu Dawan hadn't heard his daughter call him father! Even if the speech is slurred, there is no click.

Two seven or eight-year-old twin boys chased me in the waiting room, playing and playing, and I didn't know who their parents were.

As the departure time approached, the number of people in the waiting room gradually increased. Suddenly, with a pop, one of the children tripped over my three-legged trolley suitcase, and the person with the trolley fell to the ground, and he started crying. I hurriedly threw down the comic book in my hand, helped him up, and said, "Is the kid okay?" Be careful......"

A high-pitched soprano stabbed straight in the back: "Who is careless?" Your own broken box is in the way, and you still blame others for being careless? As he spoke, he took a sip in front of the sign prohibiting spitting, turned around and pulled the child over, like a Sichuan opera changing face, and in the blink of an eye, he changed from a bitter shrew face to a motherly face licking the calf, and his tone turned sharply at 360 degrees, "Son, let my mother see if it hurts?" Where does it hurt? ”

I set my sights on my trolley case, except for the one wheel missing, and the rest of the body is not broken. How did it become a broken box? I originally wanted to defend my innocent box, and by the way explain that I didn't mean that, but after thinking about it, I swallowed it back, some people, can't tell; There are some things that are not clear. Fortunately, the kid was honest, shook his head, and only said that he wanted to eat candy.

"Good! Mommy's got your favorite gummy bear, go! "The soprano took a child in one hand and kicked it with disdain as she walked past my trolley suitcase.

I stood up and was about to speak for my trolley case, when the old man on the side spoke first: "I said this lady, the girl is kind enough to help your child, if you don't thank others, forget it, why do you still kick other people's things?" ”

The soprano stopped abruptly, turned around, her eyes bulged, and she opened her mouth back to the upper octave just now: "What's wrong with me kicking it?" If it weren't for her broken box, would my son have fallen? "I don't have a good heart, I'm afraid I won't be able to end well.

"That's the child's carelessness, why is it on someone else's box?" Uncle said.

Now the old man stabbed the hornet's nest, the soprano's cheekbones covered with melasma protruded horizontally because of anger, the eyeballs in the forcibly dilated eye sockets shrank into two tempeh, the remaining eyes were cloudy whites, and the two thin lips turned quickly like pieces of paper, "Why is my child careless?" Are you old and dizzy, and can't see clearly? I ask you: Is this the same way? Is this a way for people to walk? Is it because this broken box is in the way that my child fell? Why can't I blame it on the head? When playing the allegro tongue twister and also having a breath, the soprano took a breath, and suddenly her little eyes drifted, as if she had discovered a new world, "Besides, I'm not kicking your thing, why are you taking a mouse here and meddling in your business?" You stand up for her like this, don't you fall in love with others? ”

As soon as these words came out, the entire waiting room was hot, and there was a good show to watch, and the passengers gathered around, with unexplained excitement on their faces.

The old man was so angry that his face turned purple for a while, and a strong man sitting next to him, who looked like he should be the uncle's son, stood up suddenly, rushed to the soprano, and said urgently: "What nonsense are you talking about?" ”

The soprano is not tall and loud, and she is very courageous, her chest is straight, and her two lumps of fat are almost up to the waist of a strong man. "What's the matter? Another one! Is the old lady afraid of you? ”

"The waiting room is your home, huh? Or is it a sports field? Do you think this aisle is your child's runway? In the face of such a naked provocation, the strong man's eyes showed a fierce light, and his index finger pointed at the soprano's nose, "Don't think that if you are a woman, Lao Tzu will not dare to hit you!" The strong man was probably so angry that he couldn't control his strength, and his fingers really poked the soprano's nose.

The soprano stopped doing it, sat on the ground with her ass, and grabbed the ground: "Beat someone!" Hit someone! Come on! In broad daylight, our mother-in-law is going to be beaten to death! The two children were so frightened that they burst into tears.

After a while, a man came running, with a pair of big round glasses on his big round face, a middle-split head, a medium height, and a stocky body. He was separated between the strong man and the soprano, raised his chin, licked his lips again, and said with little confidence: "Bully...... Bullying women and children counts as ...... What a thing! ”

"Then you're coming!" The strong man took off his blue plaid shirt, leaving only a white vest and half of his body with bulging muscles, and a posture that was ready to punch at any moment.

The chaotic scene finally attracted the station management, "What a noise!" The middle-aged man in uniform scolded.

The life-saving announcement came at the right time: "Dear passengers, please pay attention! Dear passengers, please pay attention! The 5064 train from Shen'an to Chunjiang has arrived at the station, and passengers who have taken the 5064 train should bring their belongings and go to the No. 2 ticket gate in the second waiting room to check their tickets......"

Seeing the lively people disperse in all directions, the management separated the stalemate and shouted, "What are you still standing here?" Don't get on the bus? ”

Although the anger has not subsided, no one wants to miss the train, let alone be invited into the station security room. The round-faced man pulled up the soprano and the two children who were sitting on the ground, and the strong man helped the old man and walked separately.

The waiting room was deserted, and my heart was still pounding. No. 20, the second floor, the No. 2 waiting room, the No. 2 ticket gate, one after the other, these are all ominous signals. They must not happen to be sitting in the same carriage, and the number of the carriage must not be number two or twelve.

I glanced at the lame trolley case lying on the ground, sighed inwardly, and muttered, "It's all your fault." ”
