Pei Yue was taken care of in the hospital for six days, and Pei Xuehai was able to get up and go to the toilet on his own. The doctor conducted a detailed examination and said he was recovering well and could be discharged.
After completing the discharge procedures, the doctor also gave Pei Yue a lot of precautions. In the past six days, Pei Yue didn't talk much, but he took care of Pei Xuehai day and night without a single complaint. Many people in the hospital praised him.
Pei Yue wrote down all these precautions, and then asked someone to borrow a car to take Pei Xuehai back to the car factory's home.
As soon as Pei Xuehai came back, neighbors and old colleagues came to visit. Pei Xuehai was still very weak, so he greeted a few people and went back to the house to rest.
Not long after he lay down, two retired old workers came to visit. One of them, surnamed Huang, had a very good relationship with Pei Xuehai; the other, surnamed Liu, used to be the director of the Women's Federation of the auto parts factory.
When Mr. Huang heard that Pei Xuehai had fallen asleep, he didn't disturb him. He looked at Pei Yue with a straight face and asked, "Xiao Yue, I heard that you stayed in Jiang Province for more than a month last year to handle cases. You haven't been there for more than a month."
go home?"
Pei Yue said nothing, and his lack of rebuttal meant acquiescence.
Seeing him like this, Aunt Liu couldn't help but said: "Xiao Yue, it's not that I'm talking about you. In recent years, your mother was worried that you would not have a good life outside, so she often made clothes, shoes and socks and sent them to you, and she was always worried about your marriage.
You got married earlier. But you haven’t called me or called me over the years. You kid is too ignorant..."
Wang Hongfen thought something was wrong in her heart and hurriedly said: "Brother Huang, Sister Liu, and Xiao Yue have always been very filial, but they are too far away to take care of them..."
Uncle Huang interrupted her and cursed angrily: "It's understandable if he is busy with work in Sijiu City, but he returned to Jiang Province. No matter how busy he is at work, he can't spare two hours to go home to see his old father for more than a month?
?I think it’s not that you don’t have time, but that you just don’t have the heart. Pei Yue, as a child, you don’t even have the most basic filial piety, so what’s the difference between you and an animal?”
This scolding was quite unpleasant, and it would be no exaggeration to say that it exposed Pei Yue's face.
Pei Yue said coldly: "Uncle Huang, you said something wrong. It's not that I didn't mean it but I didn't dare to reply."
Uncle Huang glared at him and asked, "Don't you dare? This is your home, what are you afraid of?"
Aunt Liu's heart skipped a beat, wondering if there was any big hidden secret.
Wang Hongfen was panicking, fearing that Pei Yue would say something unpleasant and said quickly: "Xiao Yue, Brother Huang and Sister Liu have misunderstood you. I will explain to them. Your father is coughing. Please go into the house and see him."
Pei Yue didn't save her face. If he didn't explain this clearly, anyone in the auto parts factory would be able to point his nose at him and call him an unfilial son and a beast.
Pei Yue said: "When I was fifteen, she accused me of spying on her taking a shower. My dad believed her and beat me half to death. After I healed, he sent me away. Then my dad felt sorry for her.
In order to make up for her, she got her brother into the factory."
"Uncle Huang, how can I dare to go back when I have this woman in my house? What should I do if she accuses me of having evil intentions towards her if I want to come back? Uncle Huang, I don't dare to risk my reputation and future."
This thunderous explosion made Uncle Huang and Aunt Liu unable to recover for a long time.
Wang Hongfen only had two words in her mind: It's over.
Uncle Huang came back to his senses and said: "I remember that you were beaten so hard by your father that your butt was almost rotten. But your father said that you stole the family's fifty yuan and spent it outside.
That’s why I hit you.”
At that time, he thought he deserved to be beaten, for stealing family money at such a young age, and not being properly disciplined when he grew up not to commit murder or arson. On the contrary, his wife felt pitiful for Pei Yue, and said that every stepmother has a stepfather.
Aunt Liu also remembered this. However, because it was her own money, everyone just thought that the child was too naughty and needed discipline, but there was nothing wrong with him.
Pei Yue didn't know this, and his face became colder when he heard this: "My mother gave me all the family's savings before she died. Even if I eat meat every day, this money can last me until I am twenty. I can afford it."
Go steal something from home."
"Also, at that time, she would only greet me in front of my father and you. She never talked to me once the door was closed, and Pei Jiamao was not allowed to play with me."
Thanks to his precociousness and defense against Wang Hongfen, her plan failed. But if it were a child who longed for maternal love and had a sensitive temper, it would be useless if he was left in such an environment for a long time.
The two old men looked at each other, and then Aunt Liu said cautiously: "Xiao Yue, is there any misunderstanding here?"
Pei Yue said contemptuously: "There is no misunderstanding. If my father hadn't sent me away after that incident, I would definitely find a way to kill her."
"Uncle Huang, Aunt Liu, my dad retired four years ago. I have sent money home every month, and I will also send things back during the holidays. Uncle Huang, Aunt Liu, I promise you that if my dad is willing,
I will take him to live in Sijiu City in the future. But I will not care about other people."
After the two of them glanced at Wang Hongfen, whose face turned pale, they sighed and left.
Pei Xuehai woke up from Wang Hongfen's tears.
After knowing that Pei Yue revealed this matter, he had more white hair on his head: "Xiao Yue, what happened back then was a misunderstanding, and why are you still holding on to it so many years ago? I know you
I hate your aunt, but Jiamao and the others still need to be human beings."
Pei Yue has a question that has been lingering in his mind, but he has never found the opportunity before: "You believed her when she said I peeked at her bathing. When I said no, you pretended not to have heard. In your heart, am I just a lustful ghost?
?”
He hadn't even figured it out at that time, and even girls who came to play with him were disgusted.
Pei Xuehai was filled with bitterness. He did not suspect that Pei Yue had any dirty thoughts towards Wang Hongfen. He only thought that Pei Yue had become curious about women when he grew up. But this was also a very dangerous behavior, so he beat him up, but he
Unexpectedly, this beating made him hold a grudge to this day: "Xiao Yue, I'm sorry, my father was afraid that you would go astray, so he attacked you in a hurry."
Pei Yue couldn't listen to a single word of these words. When the damage has been done, the words "sorry" are the most pale and useless.
Pei Yue said: "Do you know that after this incident, I am afraid when I see women, fearing that there is a vicious soul hidden under the beautiful skin. So you don't have to bother to arrange a blind date for me. I am a
I won’t get married.”
Pei Xuehai felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
After walking out of the bedroom, Pei Yue looked at Wang Hongfen crying, while the three children gathered around her to comfort her.
Pei Jiamao said nothing, but Pei Jiade was at an impulsive age. He looked at Pei Yue with resentment and said, "What did you say to my mother to make her cry like this? Pei Yue, you don't like my mother and this
Then don’t come back home.”
Pei Yue sneered and said, "I don't want to come back. It was your mother who spread my unfilial piety everywhere and forced me to come back."
Pei Jiamao's eyes were red and he said: "Brother, it's dad who misses you. He also said that he's afraid that he won't be able to see you for the last time. Mom can't find you, so I have no choice but to call your boss."
Not even a ghost would believe this, and only her three children would believe it.
