Chapter 59: Suicide
Chen Qingwu heard that something was wrong, and immediately pushed the door in.
"Grandpa!"
Grandfather Chen Changsheng was lying on the ground, his face pale.
Zhou Yiren squatted beside the old man, so anxious that he didn't know what to do, and when he saw Chen Qingwu breaking in, he immediately raised his hands to prove his innocence: "The sky is above, this is really not ***!" I didn't touch him......
"Why don't you call 120 for an ambulance!"
"Oh oh yes, call an ambulance!"
Zhou Yiren immediately got up and called an ambulance.
Chen Qingwu knelt beside his grandfather, patting his shoulders and calling to see if he reacted.
"Grandpa! Grandpa!" She forced herself to compose, but she couldn't control her voice and the tremors of her limbs.
The old man's eyes were closed, and he didn't respond.
Chen Qingwu trembled and went to explore his grandfather's carotid artery, but fortunately, the pulse was still there.
In their special "family of three", grandfather Chen Changsheng is the only man, although he has passed the age of sixtieth, but he has always been the pillar of this family, if something happens to his grandfather, for Chen Qingwu, it is more devastating than the collapse of the sky.
The ambulance arrived ten minutes later.
Zhou Yiren politely thanked the medical staff for arriving in time, but Chen Qingwu had no idea what "timely" was, and this was the longest ten minutes of her life.
She got into the ambulance with Zhou Yiren.
"Does Master Chen have any old ailments?" Zhou Yiren asked.
Chen Qingwu used what little strength he had left to glare at him.
Zhou Yiren sneered and didn't dare to speak again all the way.
When she arrived at the hospital, her grandfather Chen Changsheng was pushed into the emergency room, Chen Qingwu sat on the bench in the corridor, her whole person became more and more soft, she heard Zhou Yiren calling Chu Yikun, and kept emphasizing: "I don't know why he suddenly fainted!"
Chen Qingwu thought to himself, how could he suddenly faint, he wasn't angry with you!
Chu Yikun and Chen Yuchuan rushed to the hospital one after another, and when they saw their sister-in-law, Chen Qingwu finally couldn't hold back and cried.
"Sister-in-law, grandpa, he ......."
"It's okay, it's okay, the old man is strong, and it's going to be fine." The sister-in-law rubbed Chen Qingwu's cold hands, "Don't cry, don't cry when you're obedient!"
Chen Qingwu nodded, wiped away his tears, restrained his emotions, and didn't dare to be too presumptuous sad, for fear of infecting his sister-in-law with negative energy.
Several people wandered in the corridor, and they didn't know how long they waited, and finally waited for the emergency lights to go out.
The doctor walked out and glanced at the people in the hallway, "Don't worry too much, the patient is fine."
In one sentence, Chen Qingwu was amnesty, and tears came out of his eyes.
"Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay." Zhou Yiren was also relieved by the side, but his worries were not the same as Chen Qingwu's, he only thought that if the old man really had something to do, he would not be able to wash himself by jumping into the Yellow River, and he would lose a cash cow.
Chen Changsheng was pushed out, he was wearing an oxygen mask, and his face was already bloody, not as pale as just now.
Chen Qingwu hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her grandfather's hand, the old man's fingers were full of thick calluses, she was sure that his palm was warm, so she was completely relieved.
"The patient has to be observed in the hospital for two days, and the family members go to the hospital formalities."
"Okay."
Chen Yuchuan went to go through the hospitalization procedures, and Chen Qingwu followed the old man to the ward.
Zhou Yiren pulled Chu Yikun and kept talking in the corridor, and after that, Zhou Yiren went to the commissary downstairs of the inpatient department to buy a bouquet of flowers and some gift boxes for visiting patients and brought them up.
"Qingwu, take good care of your grandfather, I'll go back first."
Chen Qingwu ignored him.
Zhou Yiren knew that he was at a loss, smiled and hurriedly left.
----
The first thing Grandpa Chen Changsheng did when he woke up was to throw out the things Zhou Yiren bought.
He pointed at Chen Yuchuan, "Aren't you a lawyer? Give me a way, I want to terminate the contract! I will never work with his studio again!"
"Okay, okay, I'll find a way, I'll find a way." Chen Yuchuan coaxed the old man like a child, "Please don't get excited, okay? You're going to go over again, Chen Qingwu will have to cry to death!"
Chen Changsheng glanced at Chen Qingwu, and saw that his granddaughter's eyes were red, like a rabbit, the old man's heart softened, and he slowly calmed down, but he calmed down for a few seconds, and began to get angry again.
"Ah Kun, this Zhou Yiren can't do it, he sees money and is mercenary, and he must not cooperate with him in the future, it is because of people like him that the water in the nuclear carving circle is becoming more and more turbid."
"Got it, master."
Chen Changsheng wanted to say something, but Chen Yuchuan directly picked up the oxygen mask and buckled it towards him.
"Please, old man, can you stop a bit? Is the nuclear eagle more important or is your life more important?"
Chen Changsheng brushed off the oxygen mask: "I'm fine, I don't need to wear this thing."
"Then you don't have to be hospitalized at all, just go home."
"I don't think it's impossible."
"Come on, get some rest, I'm really scared of you." Chen Yuchuan made a gesture of clasping his hands together, "Sleep quickly, Master Chen, we are here with you."
"What are you doing here?" Chen Changsheng waved his hand, "You take Qingwu back, Ah Kun can be here, Qingwu will go to school tomorrow, how important is the third year of high school."
Chen Yuchuan thought about it, it's okay, she will go back to pack a few changes of clothes for the old man and bring them over tomorrow morning.
"I don't want to, I'm going to take care of grandpa here." Chen Qingwu didn't want to leave, she was still a little scared now, she always felt that her grandfather was in front of her, so she could feel at ease.
"How do you take care of it? It's inconvenient for you to go to the bathroom with Master Chen here."
"But ......"
"Don't." Chen Yuchuan came over to pull her, "You see that Master Chen is alive and well now, there is no need to worry, come back with me, you still have to do your homework, just let Ah Kun be here, don't they like to talk about nuclear carving?" Let them go talk for the night, you don't have anything in common here."
All right.
Chen Qingwu was persuaded.
Mainly, she really has homework that she hasn't finished.
The two took the elevator downstairs.
In the hall downstairs, I don't know what happened, and many people gathered around to watch the excitement.
Chen Qingwu was exhausted, and she didn't have the heart to pay attention to others, until, when she passed the payment window, she suddenly heard a familiar voice.
"Uncle, you save my dad, I beg you, save him!"
Why is this voice so similar to Duan Jin Cheng?
Chen Qingwu's footsteps stopped for a moment.
"What's wrong?" Chen Yuchuan looked back at her.
Chen Qingwu didn't answer, but walked quickly around the pillar in front of him, pushed aside the crowd and glanced inside.
It's really Duan Jin Cheng!
Duan Jincheng stood in front of the payment window, holding the arm of his eldest uncle Duan Xingwen with his hand, his body was more than one meter and eight, and he was not as tall as before, only humble.
"Uncle! You save my dad, I will pay you back this money, you just pay it in advance, I will pay it back!"
"He wants to die himself, what are you going to do to save him? This kind of person is a waste when he is rescued! Besides, where do I have the money? Isn't it clear to you about my status in the family? Do you have to tear down my house, and you have to break up my wife to satisfy you?"
Duan Xingwen shook his words vigorously, Duan Jin seemed to have weak legs, and he was thrown to the ground in an instant.
When he fell, Chen Qingwu saw a bright red blood stain on his white T.
Duan Jin Cheng is injured?
----
The eldest uncle, Duan Xingwen, fled as if he had fled.
Duan Jincheng sat on the ground and didn't stand up for a long time.
People passing by were looking at him, and he hung his head, his thoughts were confused, because he had not eaten dinner, his stomach was empty, and only unbearable pain remained.
Everything sucks.
"Duan Jincheng?"
Someone called him.
He raised his head, there was a double vision in his eyes, and when he saw two Chen Qingwu dangling in front of him, he rubbed his eyes, at this moment, he hoped that he was wrong, he didn't want to meet her at such a time.
"Duan Jincheng, are you injured?"
Chen Qingwu looked at the blood stains on his T-shirt, and didn't dare to help him for a while, but his sister-in-law Chen Yuchuan ran over and picked him up from the ground.
"What's going on? Where does it hurt?" Chen Yuchuan asked.
Duan Jincheng looked at Chen Yuchuan, froze for a few seconds, and suddenly held Chen Yuchuan's hand, as if grasping a life-saving straw.
"Lawyer Chen, can you lend me 30,000 yuan?"
Borrowing money with blood in a place like a hospital would have been an emergency for anyone.
"Yes!" Chen Qingwu rushed to answer without thinking about it, even though she didn't have that much money.
Duan Jincheng glanced at her.
She immediately turned around and tugged at the corner of Chen Yuchuan's clothes, her eyes begging her to agree.
"Sister-in-law...... I'll give you all the New Year's money, you can borrow him!"
"Who wants your New Year's money, did I say I won't borrow it?" Chen Yuchuan didn't intend to refuse, she looked at Duan Jin Cheng and said in a soft tone: "Money is not a problem, don't worry."
"Thank you, thank you."
A glimmer of light flashed under the young man's dark eyes, and he suddenly lowered his eyes, the corners of his mouth skimmed slightly, and he couldn't help but cry after enduring it in every possible way.
"I...... I must ......" he choked up, emotion welling up, unable to fully speak, "I will definitely give it back to you."
"What the hell is going on?" Chen Yuchuan reached out and stroked his bloody T-shirt and found that it was not him who was injured, "Who is injured, is your family?"
"It's my dad...... He killed himself."
Duan Jincheng has never talked to anyone about his father and family, because it is really lackluster, and if he has to talk about it, it is just a story that is run through "poverty" and "sadness".
His family, in the years when he was in elementary school, although not rich, but far from being poor enough to open the pot, although his parents have no ability, but they are people who can afford to endure hardship, the two of them are diligent and down-to-earth to make money, and there is no problem at all to support him for a child to study.
It wasn't until the summer vacation after he graduated from elementary school that his mother was diagnosed with cancer.
In order to treat his mother's illness, his father emptied all his savings and sold all his belongings, but in the end, it was only in exchange for his mother's physical and mental suffering, and she suffered from pain for three years.
Three years later, her mother eventually died, and by the time she left, she had been so thin that only a handful of bones remained.
When the father saw his wife leave like this, his heart was like a knife and full of guilt.
And at that time, what was even more tragic was that their family could not get a penny.
No one will believe why his father committed theft, he just wanted to be able to bury his mother better. ap.
Although he knew better than anyone else that stealing was wrong, at that time, there was no other way for him to get a considerable amount of funeral expenses in a day or two, but to know the law and break the law.
The father was sentenced to two years and three months.
After being imprisoned, he also deeply reflected on his mistakes in prison, and finally survived until he was released from prison, thinking that he could get a new start.
Unexpectedly, the real punishment was after being released from prison.
During the time my father was released from prison, he was discriminated against everywhere he went, because of the label "thief".
Let's not talk about looking for a job, the three words "have been in prison" basically blocked all his ways to find a job, even if he went to work as a coolie, people shook their heads again and again when they heard that he had just been released.
Later, for some reason, even the landlord of their rented house knew that his father had been in prison, and the landlord did not ask about the cause and effect, and directly ordered them to move out quickly, and the deposit was not returned.
My father quarreled with the landlord over the 300 yuan deposit.
The surrounding neighbors came to help the landlord deal with this "thief" tenant, and everyone spoke extremely ugly, they scolded their father for "dirty eyes" and "unclean hands and feet", and Duan Jincheng was also because he was renting
When he concealed the fact that his father had been in prison, he was scolded to the point of indecency.
Seeing that his son was wronged, the father couldn't help but move with everyone, and the landlord threatened to call the police to arrest his father back in prison, but Duan Jincheng begged for mercy again and again to let him go, but the deposit was completely unreturnable, and his father was injured by those people.
That night, the father and son almost slept on the streets, and in the end, Li Tang took them in, giving them a temporary respite.
Duan Jincheng didn't understand, why the law could give his father a chance to mend his ways, but other people's mouths couldn't? Do you make a mistake or do something wrong and you will be nailed to the pillar of shame forever?
After that incident, the father became more and more silent, and after being rejected for the Nth time looking for a job, and being pointed to his nose by the neighbors and asking him what he was doing when he came out, and coming out would only drag down his son, the father was finally overwhelmed, had a nervous breakdown, and committed suicide by cutting his wrists......
Fortunately, Duan Jincheng found out in time.
's father was rushed to the hospital, and he was temporarily rescued, but the high medical expenses once again crushed Duan Jincheng.
He works part-time every day, and the little money he earns is only enough to pay for tuition, rent and daily expenses.
The eldest uncle's family saw him as if they had seen flies, and it was absolutely impossible to borrow medical expenses from their pockets, and he also knew that Chen Yuchuan, who had only met twice, should not borrow money, but he was desperate.
"Don't worry about money." Chen Yuchuan took out 10,000 yuan from her bag, which was the rest of her medical bills for the old man today, "You take this first, and then I'll go to the ATM of a nearby bank to withdraw 20,000 yuan for you in an emergency."
"Thank you." Aside from those two words, he didn't know how to express his gratitude at all.
"Don't worry, when people are in trouble, I haven't thanked you for helping me teach a scumbag lesson in the movie theater last time, but this time I will thank you." Chen Yuchuan touched Duan Jin Cheng's head, "Men don't flick when they have tears, wipe them away, don't ruin the image of the male god in Chen Qingwu's heart."
「!!!」
Chen Qingwu was caught off guard by her sister-in-law, and her face turned red.
She hurriedly turned her head and grabbed the corner of her sister-in-law's clothes again, signaling her to stop talking wildly.
"Alright." Chen Yuchuan nodded slightly, "You accompany Duan Jincheng here, and I'll go get the money."
