Chapter 52: Sympathy
Later, I heard Mr. Li call back several times, saying that he would be back tomorrow morning, and Li Yanping also mentioned me.
She and I were sitting in a chair outside the ward, and she mentioned her second aunt, and I was not in the mood to listen to her, she chattered.
Li Yanping's second aunt is called Liu Yan, Liu Yan and Liu Yu, two sisters from a rural family, and their mother met their father, Li Yanping's grandfather, when her mother went to work.
Liu Yan's father's name is Fang Han, and when he met Liu Yan's mother, he was studying in a technical school that was not very famous, and his family was much better than Liu Yan's mother, and his father worked in a state-owned automobile factory.
At that time, it was still in the era of planned economy, and the innate superiority of the working class made it difficult for Fang Han's family to accept Liu Yan's mother, a rural village aunt, let alone let her be the daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law of the Fang family.
However, Fang Han insisted on being with Liu Yan's mother, and the two of them made the Fang family's chickens and dogs restless.
Fang Han forever lost the opportunity to take over his father's class and become a worker, and even father and son turned against each other. Later, Liu Yu was born, that is, Li Yanping's mother came to this world.
Liu Yu was lucky, living and studying beside her parents until she was admitted to the health school.
Later, another girl was born, she was Liu Yan. Under different circumstances, Liu Yan was taken back to her hometown to be taken care of by her grandparents, because she was the second child, she could not settle down. Liu Yan is 10 years younger than Liu Yu, and her young life has just come to the world, like an orphan. Liu Yan's birth also brought misfortune to Fang Han and Liu Yan's mother, to be more precise, because of Liu Yan's birth, the two people who worked to barely make ends meet have been arguing about money since then, and their relationship has become weaker and weaker.
The discord in the relationship caused the two to give up on each other, lose their jobs, have no income, and find it difficult to make ends meet. Not long after, Liu Yan's mother was sentenced to two years of re-education through labor for stealing on the bus. Liu Yan's father, Fang Han, couldn't bear it and walked away, without any news. Leaving Liu Yu and Liu Yan behind, the two sisters were supported by their grandparents.
Liu Yu has a job after graduation, and in addition to supporting herself, she also supports her elderly grandparents and young sister.
At that time, Liu Yan was too young to understand the emotion of her parents not being around. Grandma leads her granddaughter to skip rope in front of the door in her spare time, and sometimes the villagers see two old men and a girl sitting around the yard playing poker. But the elderly cannot replace their parents after all.
Whenever the farming season is busy, they lock Liu Yan up at home. This made Liu Yan more and more irritable and gloomy. Sometimes, people in the village can hear a girl yelling, swearing, throwing things, and so on.
Liu Yan is a black household, she does not have a hukou and cannot go to school. Later, my grandfather went to the village committee, and he did not attend a nearby village primary school until he was 10 years old.
When Li Yanping said this, tears flowed. said that her mother was not able to take her aunt to study at that time, with a meager salary, to support a large family, and she didn't know how to live, let alone with a primary school student.
When Liu Yan was 13 years old, she dropped out of school and came home to help her grandparents with farm work. Liu Yu didn't know about dropping out of school, and two years later, Liu Yu came home to find out that her sister was no longer in school, and she had disappeared for a long time. A 13-year-old girl, at the age of flowers, is roaming the world, whose fault is this?
Li Yanping also said that her mother has been looking for her aunt, and she has been looking for it, and many years have passed, and she has also sent a missing person notice, but there is no news, and 10 years have passed in a flash. In the past 10 years, too much has changed. The grandparents are long gone, and it is impossible to say where the parents have gone, or whether they are still alive. Liu Yu had a good home, met Li Ju, and later had Li Yanping.
When I asked why Li Yanping's mother was sick and hospitalized, she was embarrassed to say and asked me if I would laugh. I don't even know what, how can I laugh at them.
"The police called and said that a man named Liu Yu had been arrested for prostitution and asked his relatives to come and go through the relevant procedures...... I haven't seen what my aunt looks like, it was my mother who went through the procedures, and when she came back, she fell ill like this. Hey......"
I looked at Li Yanping with some shock, should I sympathize or blame? Sympathize with her aunt, so who to blame?
