Chapter 101: Unforgettable
Chu Heng glanced at the door for a few times, then he resisted the nausea and retreated.
The smell of this bowl of dog food was a bit strong, and he didn’t even want to look at it.
Ugh!
Squatting at the door and smoking a cigarette, after waiting for a long time, Zhang Yicai came out with a red face and a spittoon. Without even daring to look at Chu Heng, he lowered his head and ran to the toilet to clean the spittoon. .
When she came back, Chu Heng went over to explain a few words, then hurriedly left the hospital and rushed to Hu's house.
For such a big thing, Hu Zhengwen’s family must be notified, and there is an old man waiting at home. There is no way he can stay here with Zhang Yi to take care of Hu Zhengwen. He will need someone from the Hu family. replace.
Under the thin moonlight, Chu Heng braved the cold wind and rushed all the way. It took more than ten minutes to arrive at the courtyard where the Hu family was located.
In the dead of night, everything is silent.
Every household in the courtyard was still immersed in sleep. Chu Heng didn't care about this. He strode to the door of Hu's house and slammed the door hard.
"Dong dong, dong dong dong!"
After knocking several times, the lights in the Hu family's house turned on. Other people in the courtyard also turned on the lights and leaned on the windows to look here.
After a while, a series of footsteps came to the door from far away, but the door was not opened. Father Hu's alert voice sounded from inside: "Who is it?"
"Hu Uncle, I, Hengzi, Hu Zhengwen is injured and hospitalized." Chu Heng said.
“What!”
Hu's father was shocked when he heard this. He quickly opened the door latch and walked out. He grabbed him and asked urgently: "How are you injured? How did you get hurt!"
Chu Heng didn't wait for it yet. After answering, Mother Hu also ran out in a panic, and asked with tears in her eyes: "Xiao Chu, how is Zhengwen doing now?"
Chu Heng said quickly: "Don't worry, it's just a little flesh wound. , it’s nothing serious, he The subject, Zhang Yi, is waiting over there.”
“That’s good, that’s good.” Mother Hu breathed a sigh of relief, and then she pulled Father Hu into the house angrily: “Old man, pack your things quickly. , We can’t let the girl serve the text alone!”
The old couple were busy, and some neighbors who heard the noise also ran out and asked about the situation.
Chu Heng prevaricated impatiently, and after Hu's father and Hu's mother had finished cleaning up, he hurriedly led them out of the yard. These neighbors really cared less and took advantage of them more.
The Hu family only had a bicycle, but Hu Zhengwen rode it away, leaving Chu Heng to drag them to the hospital.
Mother Hu sat in the back seat with large and small packages, Father Hu sat sideways on the beam, Chu Heng hummed and pedaled hard, and the three of them wandered on the road. .
Should I say it, the quality of the bicycles at this time is really good.
He went to the place and led the old couple into the ward. Chu Heng accompanied them and had a conversation. He looked at the kind-hearted Zhang Yi and Hu's father and mother with complicated expressions, then said goodbye and left the hospital.
You can guess it with your toes. Once the Hu family knew the truth about Hu Zhengwen being shot, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could no longer be reconciled. They even hesitated whether Zhang Yi could enter the Hu family's door.
A proper ethical drama!
But this is a family matter, and it is not easy for an outsider like him to interfere, so he can only squat aside and eat.
When Chu Heng returned home from the hospital, it was almost four o'clock, and his third uncle and grandpa were all awake at this time.
He entered the room and turned on the light. He saw the old man getting dressed and asked in surprise: "Why are you getting up so early?" "If we leave at this time, we can still get home before dark. If it's too late, we can't see clearly We're on our way." The old man looked at him with a smile. Although he was curious about why he wasn't at home, he didn't ask any more questions.
Chu Heng was stunned when he heard this: "Are you planning to leave today? I was thinking of getting you some old clothes to take back, how about you wait for a day?"
" No need, no need, it's good enough if you can lend me food, there is no shortage of clothes at home." The old man waved his hands hurriedly and said. Pulling the clothes on his body, he said: "Besides, I have already taken all your clothes, so I can't take advantage of you anymore."
"What is there to take advantage of? Old clothes are worthless." Chu Heng was funny. Shaking his head, looking at the old man's thin and thin body, he suddenly felt something in his heart and hurried to the outhouse.
He first got more than 60 kilograms of stick noodles from the warehouse and put them next to the rice vat.
Then he rummaged through a pile of wooden boards piled in the corner for lighting fires, found a few that were fairly strong, and found tools, intending to nail a sledge for the old man.
The third uncle and grandpa had to carry about a hundred kilograms of grain back, and they had to walk more than a hundred miles. It was not possible to just carry it on the shoulders. It would be easier to pull it with a sledge.
A good person will do it to the end.
The old man heard the clanking outside and walked over curiously. When he saw him playing with some wooden boards, he asked, "Hengzi, what are you doing?"
"Here you go. Make a sledge so that you can pull the grain back directly," Chu Heng said while nailing the wooden board.
The third uncle and grandpa sighed after hearing this. This child's humanity is really unspeakable, he is too kind-hearted.
How could he watch this? He dared to step forward and start working together.
The two of them first nailed a wooden raft, with two shafts made of thick wooden sticks underneath, and cut the front end into an arc with a knife. Finally, they found a hemp rope and tied it to both sides of the front section of the sledge. .
Chu Heng stood on the sledge and stepped on it. Seeing that it was quite strong, he nodded with satisfaction, and immediately went to get a pot to wash the rice: "You can eat before leaving, and you won't miss this for a while."< br>
The old man wanted to refuse, but he opened his mouth but said nothing. He knew very well that it was useless to refuse. If he didn't eat, the child would not let him go.
Because the third uncle and grandpa were in a hurry to leave, Chu Heng didn't make breakfast too complicated. It was just a pot of thick porridge, ready-made white flour steamed buns, and a plate of small pickles.
After putting the cooked porridge and hot steamed buns on the table, Chu Heng boiled the water again and put six eggs in it, planning to let the old man eat it on the way.
The third uncle and grandpa looked at the food on the table and was speechless. He thought it was a meal specially prepared for him, and said sadly: "This is too wasteful! Just get some porridge. . ”
One of them doesn’t know how poor the other is, and the other doesn’t know how rich the other is.
After the meal, the eggs were cooked. Chu Heng put the eggs and three steamed buns into a cloth bag and handed them to the old man: "You can eat this on the way."
"Well, I'll leave then. I'll come back after the New Year's Eve to provide food." The old man responded in a dull voice, took the things and put them in his arms, turned around and walked out.
Chu Heng sent the old man to the gate of the hospital. He didn't go back to the house with a sigh until he disappeared into the darkness.
The third uncle and grandpa are just a microcosm of the rural people of this era. There are many people like him in this land.
When Chu Heng fell into a deep sleep, the old man who had just left not long ago suddenly returned to the courtyard. He did not disturb Chu Heng. He just walked to the door, knelt down, kowtowed heavily, and then quietly disappeared. He left quietly.
The Yang family will never forget this kindness.
