Sandwiched between his father and younger brother

The taxi rear-ended and scraped the car in front, and the driver only felt unlucky at first, but when he saw the other party's Rolls-Royce logo, he was a little frightened on the spot, and he had done it in vain for half a year.

The driver immediately got out of the car and apologized, taking all the responsibility on himself. He didn't say anything else, he just wanted a sincere attitude to make the other party ask for less.

It's just that the boss of the luxury car came down, and the driver was dumbfounded when he saw the comer, but he didn't expect this boss to be his elementary school classmate, and the tense atmosphere disappeared in an instant, Lao Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, and ate a boxed lunch with his old classmate on the side of the road in the car.

The old classmates were also very happy to see Lao Qiu, who had not seen him for 20 years, and the relationship between the two was the best when they were in elementary school. When an old classmate had tuberculosis, all his classmates rejected him, but Lao Qiu did not dislike it and accompanied him to eat.

Over the years, the old classmates have always remembered Lao Qiu's goodness, and when he went out this time, he was going to attend the class reunion, but now that he saw Lao Qiu, it was better for the two of them to eat a boxed lunch on the side of the road. Now the two have different identities, the old classmate is a boss, and he looks very rich at first glance, while Lao Qiu is just a taxi driver.

The old classmate asked him if he had any grandchildren, and Lao Qiu said: "There is no grandson for the time being, but there are two sons, the eldest is not small, and it is time to fall in love." But you know, now you have to fight for a dad when you fall in love, like my dad, you don't want anything, plus I have a problem, I don't want to do so much. ”

After the two finished eating, Lao Qiu talked about the car repair money again, although the relationship between the two is good, but one yard is one yard, Lao Qiu is a very principled person, he must come out of this money, the old classmate did not object, only let Lao Qiu clean up the lunch box first, and then take advantage of Lao Qiu to throw away the garbage, the old classmate directly got in the car and left.

Lao Qiu, who reacted afterwards, also knew that this was a classmate taking care of his own face, and his heart was full of gratitude, feeling that the gap with the other party was too far, and muttered: We can only see you in heaven when we go back. ”

Although Lao Qiu has no money, but his life is still very happy, his wife died many years ago, only two sons and he depended on each other, a family of three living in a courtyard, the family is small, and the two sons can only sleep in a room on bunk beds.

As the eldest son of the family, the eldest Qiu Lei is very sensible, knowing that the burden on the family is heavy, he will not go to high school after graduation, come out early to work, earn money to subsidize the family, and now the family is most looking forward to the second Qiu Shuo to take the college entrance examination and strive to go to a good university.

It is said that the eldest brother is like a father, Qiu Lei is not much for his younger brother, Lao Qiu is running a car outside, and it is Qiu Lei's task to take care of Qiu Shuo's life, and he gets up in the morning to pour a urinal for Qiu Shuo.

At this time, the neighbors in the courtyard were already busy, Qiu Lei had a good personality, and he could chat with anyone he saw, say hello and walk down the street with a urinal.

Qiu Lei just likes to be poor, and after dealing with things, he has to wake up his younger brother, saying that he is an older brother, but in fact, he is more like an old mother, and he worries about Qiu Shuo's study all day long. Qiu Shuo has now entered adolescence, his personality is becoming more and more rebellious, and the most annoying thing is his brother's preaching, every time Qiu Lei says it, Qiu Shuo's left ear is close, and his right ear is out.

Lao Qiu got out of the car early in the morning, and every day he would clean the car, which was the economic pillar of the whole family, and he cherished it very much. Suddenly received a list of people who went by the way, Lao Qiu could be happy for a long time, as long as he could make money, he could do anything.

After eating, Qiu Lei rode a bicycle to send his younger brother to school, he was still muttering about Qiu Shuo's study, knowing that the school was going to hold a college entrance examination assault class, although Qiu Lei's salary was not much, but he was still determined to pay Qiu Shuo, he didn't want his younger brother to follow his old path in the end, he didn't study hard, and he couldn't even find a job in the end.

Qiu Shuo was really annoyed when he heard it, and jumped out of the car directly while Qiu Lei was not paying attention. So, sometimes it's about what you should do at whatever age.

When he arrived at the school gate, Qiu Lei found that the back of the car seat was already empty, and he was a little helpless, but looked at his watch.

was about to be late, he could only go to the company immediately, but he didn't know that he had just left with his front foot, and Qiu Shuo didn't enter the school gate when he arrived at the school, so he turned around and left directly. Lao Qiu was driving a car when he suddenly received a call from the teacher, saying that Qiu Shuo had not come.

Lao Qiu knew in his heart that Qiu Shuo had skipped class again, but he was still cooperating with Qiu Shuo, "Ah, yes, Xiao Shuo is sick, you see I'm so busy, uh, I forgot about asking him for leave." ”

After dealing with the concerned questions of teachers and passengers, "What is the disease?" ”

Lao Qiu was very helpless, "What is the disease?" Diseases of adolescence. For Qiu Lei, who always sends his younger brother to school, being late is commonplace.

Avoiding the boss's gaze, he took the courier casually, and he mixed up pretending to be one. Attendance came to the workstation, Qiu Lei just prepared for work, but at the same time brought a bad news, the company's recent performance is not good, ready to lay off large-scale employees, and colleagues and Qiu Lei are likely to be among them.

This news made Qiu Lei very depressed, and just when he was worried about his future livelihood, Qiu Shuo was sitting in an Internet café at this time, fighting in the game.

On Lao Qiu's side, he went to the bank to apply for two bank cards, with the names of his two sons on them. Lao Qiu has been running for so many years, and his body has long been a bunch of problems, and every time he is uncomfortable, he doesn't go to the hospital, feeling a waste of money, and he can take some painkillers casually, but Lao Qiu also knows that his situation is very dangerous, so he prepared a way back for his two sons early.

Because the family's economic situation is not good, Qiu Lei is very sensible, he has always liked Qiaoqiao, the girl in the compound, Qiaoqiao is also interesting to Qiu Lei, but he knows his own situation, Qiu Lei feels that he and Qiaoqiao are completely delaying others when they are together, so in the face of Qiaoqiao's friendship that is often revealed, he can only pretend not to understand, and refuse with a hard heart.

After arriving home, Qiu Lei helped his father in the kitchen, he was very filial, always felt sorry for his father too tired, and their conversation between father and son was more like friends. In order to save, Lao Qiu always likes to buy some canned yellow peaches, which can not only supplement sugar, but also the remaining canned bottles can also contain fried sauce, and Lao Qiu's fried noodles are a must, the eldest son Qiu Lei loves this bite, when eating, the father and son will eat this pot of noodles, eat and support, pour in the fried sauce, and eat it is called a beauty.

But Qiu Shuo had eaten enough fried noodles, and he didn't even serve the table, so he wasn't hungry when he asked. Lao Qiu knew that Qiu Shuo didn't want to eat fried noodles, so he could only take out instant noodles from the cabinet and give them to Qiu Shuo.

Lao Qiu knew that Qiu Lei was interested in Qiaoqiao, but because of his family conditions, he had low self-esteem and never dared to show it to Qiaoqiao. Lao Qiu wanted to persuade Qiu Lei to be brave, "What's wrong with the people?" Why do you look down on the common people so much? I've raised you for so many years, what have I been short of you all these years? ”

Qiu Lei said: "Yes, yes, you are right, boss, as your son, I am indeed wrong anywhere." ”

The father and son smiled, Qiu Lei is old after all, and he still has to rely on himself in emotional matters.

After eating, Lao Qiu heard the sound of cats meowing in the yard, he hurriedly went out with the leftovers to feed the cats, these wild cats are also his concern, after feeding the cats, the father and son cleaned up and lay on the bed, and the peaceful day was over.

The next day was the same. In fact, Lao Qiu and Qiu Lei struggled so hard to take care of Qiu Shuo, but Qiu Shuo didn't make people worry, his mind was not on his studies at all, and he was about to take the college entrance examination, and he even thought about it.

Qiu Shuo said to his friend: "I haven't decided whether to take the college entrance examination yet, I don't like it here, I want to leave Beijing now to find a job, and never come back." ”

Since he didn't have a mother, Qiu Shuo felt as if the whole world owed him, and he was the most wronged. Of course, his psychology has not been shown in front of Lao Qiu and Qiu Lei.

Qiu Lei was having dinner in the company, and his friend called, and he was about to have a class reunion, and his friend asked Qiu Lei to pick a place. The dead friend is very rich, this time he invited a treat, Qiu Lei knew that this was the dead friend to give himself face, and he was not polite, after all, this is the iron brother who has played since childhood.

How profitable is food delivery? Qiu Lei, a white-collar worker in the company, felt sorry for the takeaway brother when he was doing the elevator, and the takeaway brother said: "It's really miserable, and it costs 10,000 yuan a month to break your leg." ”

Qiu Lei said: "Catching up with my two monthly salaries, co-authoring, I am the worst." ”

Tonight, Lao Qiu pinched dumplings, Qiu Lei listened to the cross talk and quacked on the side, while Qiu Shuo played with his mobile phone expressionlessly to watch his father's hard work.

From time to time, Qiu Lei would pour a glass for his father and feed it to his father, that is, he had just finished picking his feet, and the wine was a little skewering, Lao Qiu told Qiu Lei while working, it felt like he wanted to entertain something, but Qiu Lei didn't feel it.

Qiu Lei went to the toilet, but found Qiu Shuo smoking here. He didn't say much as an elder brother, and just reminded his younger brother not to smoke in the future, it was not good for his health. Qiu Lei, who signed up for cram school, had already given it to Qiu Shuo, he was very concerned about whether Qiu Shuo went to class, but every time he asked Qiu Shuo, Qiu Shuo looked impatient, and Qiu Lei had no way to take him.

thought that life could go on so peacefully, but Lao Qiu suddenly had a sharp pain in his stomach when he was running a car, and his consciousness began to be in a trance, and finally fainted directly. Qiu Lei, who got the news, rushed to the hospital as soon as possible, and now Lao Qiu's illness can no longer be hidden. Qiu Lei never expected that Lao Qiu's disease was advanced liver cancer, and he had been sentenced to death by the doctor, and this time he was really blind.

Lao Qiu said: "I didn't want the two of you to know, so I just wanted to leave quietly." ”

Qiu Lei said: "You are really a man, is it particularly painful?" Looking at his father's haggard appearance, Qiu Lei, who has always been optimistic, could no longer hold back the sadness in his heart, and tears fell.

Even now, Lao Qiu is still thinking about his two sons, and he told Qiu Lei that he has two bank cards under the seat of his car, which are the money he has saved over the years, one for each of the brothers.

Lao Qiu is actually not worried about Qiu Shuo, because when he leaves, Qiu Lei can still take care of his younger brother, but he feels sorry for his eldest son. "Da Leizi, I'm leaving, who else can you follow?"

Qiu Lei said: "Where can I go?" Don't go anywhere but go home. Seeing that his father was sad, Qiu Lei endured his sadness and changed the topic, and accompanied his father to talk about their childhood, trying to keep Lao Qiu in a good mood.

When I got home in the evening, Qiu Shuo was eating steamed buns. Qiu Lei calmly told Qiu Shuo about Lao Qiu's illness, the brothers fell silent for a while, they all need time to digest this matter now, Qiu Shuo still has to go to class, and the burden of taking care of his father falls on Qiu Lei, because he has not gone to work, the company warned Qiu Lei to fire him if he doesn't go, but Qiu Lei really can't leave, in order to make up for his father's medical expenses, Lao Qiu's car fleet also took away.

Qiu Lei found Lao Qiu Shuo's bank card in the car, and also saw the painkillers that had fallen in the car, he seemed to be able to understand that every time Lao Qiu was sick and painful, he endured it with painkillers. And Lao Qiu did this only for the sake of their brothers and this family.

Just when Qiu Lei was sad about his father's experience, Qiu Shuo on the other side did not let people worry, the mock test results came down, Qiu Shuo still failed, and was criticized by the teacher by name because of talking to his classmates. Qiu Shuo's temper came up, he was tough with the teacher in class, and finally was kicked out of the classroom, he didn't care at all when he called his parents, he took the money from selling the car, Qiu Lei paid the fee in the hospital, and suddenly the bad news came, Lao Qiu was critically ill, and the doctor did not rescue him, Qiu Lei sat paralyzed on the chair outside the operating room, although he had been psychologically prepared, but he was still difficult to accept for a while.

Time came a month later, Xiang Qiu Lei's current situation, there is not so much time to carry it, he is settling accounts, treating his father, he borrowed money from his friends and Qiaoqiao, which needs to be exchanged for him and take care of Qiu Shuo's food and drink, just his salary, the more uncomfortable it becomes, these two people have to starve to death.

"Old man, it's not easy to think about you now." Just when he was thinking about what to do in the future, Qiu Shuo suddenly came back with his classmates. The classmate bought a new laptop, and Qiu Shuo wanted to play for a while, but because Qiu Shuo moved too hard, the classmate was a little unhappy and said a few words to Qiu Shuo.

Qiu Lei was a little uncomfortable listening outside, but there was nothing he could do now. There was such a big family change in Qiu Lei's family, Qiu Lei's best friend was very worried, and he took the time to come over and take a look at the two iron buddies from childhood to adulthood. The dead friend wants to help Qiu Lei, their family has a big business, and the dead friend wants Qiu Lei to help him do business, "What I do is what I do for our family, there is nothing that can't be erased, you can do whatever I do, no one cares about you being very free." Qiu Lei understood the kindness of his sworn friend, but he didn't want to cause trouble for his sworn friend, so he didn't say anything.

The best friend said, "I'm redundant." But I didn't take it back, so I left it on the table. Just when Qiu Lei was worried about his livelihood, Qiu Shuo still didn't let people worry, he hadn't gone home in the middle of the night, Qiu Lei was waiting at the door, and finally saw Qiu Shuo's figure, but found that he was being helped back, and this look was a fight outside.

Qiu Lei was very angry and wanted to take care of him, but Qiu Shuo always looked unconvinced and didn't listen to the financial pressure of his family at all. Qiu Lei didn't tell Qiu Shuo at all, he didn't want to affect his younger brother's college entrance examination, in fact, he had been fired by the company, and he didn't know where to get his salary next month.

Just when he was worried, he saw a food delivery man on the road. Recalling the last time the takeaway brother said that he could earn 10,000 yuan a month, Qiu Lei was moved, although this job needs to be quiet, and it is very faceless to say it, but now in order to make money, he can't manage so much.

When picking up Qiu Shuo from school on this day, Qiu Lei specially bought him a computer, although it was difficult for him, he didn't want his younger brother to be looked down upon by his classmates for material reasons.

Qiu Lei didn't say anything to Qiu Shuo about making money, it was good for him to stand in front of him, after delivering takeaways, it was very simple, there was no technical content, just work hard.

Qiu Lei quickly appreciated the hardships of this, the first order was a supermarket order, a lot of things are very heavy, Qiu Lei finally came to the customer's community, but found that the elevator was broken, the customer lived on the 27th floor, he could only walk, leading the goods to climb the stairs and wait for delivery, Qiu Lei felt that half of his life was almost gone.

But just when Qiu Lei was working hard to earn money, Qiu Shuo on the other side had an argument with his classmates in class, and this time he also smashed the glass of the classroom, and the teacher asked him to stand in the hall of the teaching building.

My father died, my brother delivered food, and my younger brother went to school, but I didn't expect my younger brother to fight at school all day long, and he also smashed the school glass.

At this time, Qiu Lei also rushed to the school, and when he saw the teacher, he quickly apologized, and all the mistakes were his fault. Qiu Lei said that he did not manage Qiu Shuo well, and he would compensate for all the losses of the school. Seeing that Qiu Lei's apology was sincere, the teacher eliminated his anger little by little.

But Qiu Shuo couldn't get used to Qiu Lei's low-voiced appearance, and threw his cane directly on the ground when he left. On the way back, Qiu Lei wanted to say a few words about educating Qiu Shuo, but Qiu Shuo not only couldn't listen to it, but also looked down on Qiu Lei's work of delivering takeaways.

Qiu Lei only felt tired. In order to compensate for the school's glass, Qiu Lei pulled down his face and found his best friend. He has no money in hand now, and he wants to borrow 5,000 from his dead party, the IOU has been written, and the dead party didn't say a word, so he took out 10,000 yuan for him and asked Qiu Lei to use it first.

The dead friend also took out two bags of clothes, saying that this was something he couldn't wear after losing weight, and asked Qiu Lei to take it back and take a look, the clothes were the same as new, Qiu Lei understood that this must be the new one bought for him by the dead friend, but he didn't say anything, some friendships don't need to be expressed, just remember it in his heart.

borrowed money from his close friend, and Qiu Lei worked harder when he worked, but his speed of making money was far from catching up with Qiu Shuo's troubles. The teacher called him again, saying that Qiu Shuo had clashed with other classmates again and smashed other people's mobile phones.

Qiu Lei has no choice but to lose money, he is now in debt, and he must find a way to make more money. At this time, he heard the chat at the next table, and knew that he was earning a lot on behalf of the driver now, and the working hours were generally at night, which did not conflict with food delivery.

Qiu Lei was moved, so in the evening, he insisted on being a substitute driver. When he was driving for someone on this day, he suddenly found that the female owner was very familiar, and he couldn't help but look at it twice, "What do you think I'm doing?" ”

Qiu Lei said: "Hey, sister, I see that you are familiar. It turned out that this woman was the last time Qiu Lei climbed the 27th floor to deliver takeaways. The customer saw that Qiu Lei was delivering food and running as a substitute driver, and the woman was a little appreciative, she gave Qiu Lei a special consumption when she got out of the car, and said that she would look for him next time she took the car.

In this way, after a few contacts, the two became good friends, friends in the true sense of the word. A woman is an executive of a company, but she hates that kind of life, and her favorite thing is to drink beer and skewer at a food stall, which is the taste of life.

The two often drink together and complain about the unhappiness in this life, Qiu Lei is actually very bitter in his heart, life is not easy, but since his father left, he has never cried again, and promised his father to take care of his younger brother, he will definitely be able to do it.

Returning home in the evening, Qiu Lei was busy all day and was just about to take a rest, when suddenly he received a call from the police station, saying that his brother had been arrested. At first, Qiu Lei thought he was a liar, but after looking for a long time at home, he didn't see Qiu Shuo, so he reacted and hurriedly ran to the police station.

Knowing that this matter was not easy to solve, he also called a dead friend. It turned out that Qiu Shuo had a fight with his classmates at school and put someone in the hospital, and the matter was very serious.

The dead friend comforted Qiu Lei: "Brother, didn't we often fight when we were children?" Why are you still nervous? ”

Qiu Lei said: "Nonsense, can we fight when we were children the same as now?" Now fighting is fighting for money, isn't calling you here just to leave an alternative? ”

The parents of the beaten classmates are now very emotional, saying that they want Qiu Lei to compensate 100,000 yuan, and they have been insulting Qiu Shuo's parents, Qiu Lei has been apologizing in a low voice, he can only bear these words, but the dead party can't listen to them. "What are you talking about, Qiu Lei, it's not time to put your hands together."

The dead party knew that his side was at fault, so he could talk about it, but he couldn't let Qiu Lei be humiliated like this, "Didn't you ask for money?" ”

The other party insisted: "100,000 is not a point!" ”

Qiu Lei pleaded and said: "The police officer said just now, just a slight business, is it a bit inappropriate for you to ask for 100,000?" ”

The other party continued to scold, and the dead friend stood in the middle and said: "Card number, card number to open an account, and then you quietly take your baby young master away for me." "Money is not everything, but it can solve many things.

Qiu Shuo was released quickly, but as soon as he came out, he began to complain about Qiu Lei, "Why did you give money to that grandson?" ”

Qiu Lei said: "I didn't say you, but you said that I came to you?" Seeing that the two brothers were quarreling, the sworn friend quickly stopped Qiu Lei. For the 100,000 yuan spent by his dead friend, Qiu Lei couldn't help it, this money was not a small number for him, and he needed to pay it back slowly. When the dead friend heard it, he was happy and said: "If you haven't paid it off when I die, burn it to me, and you should pay it back, if we are both gone, the next generation will still be brothers." ”

After saying goodbye to his dead friend, Qiu Lei went home, and the anger in his heart still needed to be vented. This time, he couldn't bear it anymore, he boiled a pot of instant noodles, took Lao Qiu's fried sauce and put it in front of Qiu Shuo, and said, "Our family only has these three bags of noodles, three eggs, and this last bag of fried sauce here." This sauce was fried by my father, if you don't eat it up today, you don't want to get out of this door, Qiu Shuo, where am I sorry for you? Why do you look down on me so much? Do you think you're an only child? I don't have a mother, my mother is gone, sometimes I really hate you, I'm just a father, and I have to mention you half, I'm sorry for him, I'm sorry for his last words to me before leaving, I'm sorry Qiaoqiao. Until now, I don't dare to say a word to others, I like you, I'm even more sorry for you, I don't deserve to be your brother, and I can't be your brother.

The old man gave me two cards, one is yours, and it hasn't been moved, I have already paid you this one, I have already paid you a one. ”

Listening to Qiu Lei's words, Qiu Shuo was also anxious, the reason why he chose to fight was because that classmate had been insulting their family.

Qiu Shuo hates his current life, he hates studying, he hates getting ahead, so he chooses to fall. The two brothers quarreled more and more intensely, and finally Qiu Lei slammed the door and left.

He came to his father's tombstone and wanted to confide in his heart, he was too tired now, and he felt that he couldn't take care of Qiu Shuo.

In fact, the two are not brothers, they are half-siblings. When the old Qiu divorced with Qiu Lei, Qiu Shuo's mother took Qiu Shuo, and the two married for the second time and started a family. For so many years, Qiu Shuo has not been close to his family, in order to take care of his emotions, Lao Qiu and the sensible Qiu Lei have always favored him, but now Qiu Lei feels very hard, "I miss you very much, can you give me a dream?" I'll go to you, I'm too tired. ”

Complaining is complaining, and life still has to go on. After calming down, Qiu Lei went home, but found Qiu Shuo's note on the table. Qiu Shuo also knew that he was sorry for his brother, he was scolded and woke up, and decided to change his past.

In fact, Qiu Shuo is not useless, the first time he fought was because he was righteous and brave on the bus, and he didn't want to explain when he got home, fighting at school was also a classmate insulting his family, he liked to surf the Internet, because there were activities in the Internet café to play games, and the first place was rewarded with a water cup, he secretly gave it to Lao Qiu, and he went to see his father's last face, hiding in the corner and crying silently.

He is also full of affection for his family, but he doesn't know how to express it. Now he has to study hard and prepare for the college entrance examination. The brothers' conflicts melted away in the midst of their frank words, and their lives finally returned to peace.

Qiu Lei earns money to support his family, Qiu Shuo concentrates on studying, and the two brothers have started to work hard for a better life, and they are finally like a pair of brothers. After that, Qiu Lei sent Qiu Shuo to the college entrance examination, Qiu Shuo was full of confidence, he wanted to give his brother an explanation, and Qiu Lei finally became confident, he mustered up the courage to quietly confess, and the lover eventually became a family.
