It turned out that since Chu Yuzhu became pregnant and life began to be difficult again, Xia Yaozu was too anxious to write anything.
That time he went to the county to look for a job, but because he didn't know anything, he never found a suitable job. Later, he saw a small advertisement on a telephone pole for paid blood donation, which cost 100 yuan for 100 milliliters of blood.
Xia Yaozu thought that he was young and it would be nothing to draw some blood, so he dialed the phone number on the small advertisement.
He originally thought that selling blood once or twice would solve the immediate urgent need, and he would not need to sell blood if he could earn royalties in the future. However, who would have thought that he could not write anything for several months in a row.
The times became more and more frequent, and his health gradually began to deteriorate. He started to feel sleepy within half an hour of sitting down. As a result, he became even less able to write anything.
Later, he simply stopped writing and would sleep to recuperate his health. When his health improved a little, he would go to the county to sell blood, and he has been doing so until now.
After hearing this, Chu Yuzhu hugged Xia Yaozu and cried loudly, asking him to promise himself that no matter how hard life was, he would not be allowed to sell blood anymore. If he had no money, he could find a way, but if his body collapsed, he would be replaced no matter how much money he had.
not coming back.
Xia Yaozu agreed.
But I don’t know if it’s because of the frequent and frequent blood sales. More than half a year has passed, and my daughter can walk. Not only has Xia Yaozu’s health not been well, but it has become worse and worse. The man who is less than thirty years old has already
He is as thin as a little old man and looks even more haggard than Uncle Xia.
Not only that, he was becoming more and more susceptible to colds. He would catch colds even if he caught a little cold air and would not recover for more than a month, and abscesses began to appear inexplicably on his body.
When Xia Yaozu fainted again and his high fever refused to go down, the village doctor said that his condition did not look right and asked Chu Yuzhu to take Xia Yaozu to a large hospital in the county for examination.
After a series of blood tests, the hospital asked Xia Yaozu to go home and wait for the results. A month later, the test results came out and it turned out to be HIV positive. The hospital also recommended that Chu Yuzhu also get tested.
After Chu Yuzhu completed the examination, she waited anxiously for another month. The test results came out and they were also HIV positive.
Holding the test sheet, Chu Yuzhu couldn't believe her eyes. Seeing the days getting better and better, she never thought that such a big disaster would befall herself and her husband.
That was Xia Yaozu's fault caused by selling blood again and again. In order to make a profit, those underground black blood stations only sterilized the blood drawing needles for a show, so they contracted this disease.
Fortunately, because she could not produce milk, the child had been drinking milk powder. For more than a year, the child and her father-in-law had no blood contact with the couple.
The couple hugged each other and cried for the third time, but things were already like this, no matter how sad or regretful it was, it was useless.
Chu Yuzhu and Xia Yaozu returned home together with heavy hearts. After Xia Yaozu survived for three months, he fell ill and passed away. Chu Yuzhu looked at her daughter and father-in-law, thinking of her husband's death, and then her own illness, and worried that she might accidentally infect others.
The daughter and father-in-law actually used a bottle of pesticide to kill themselves before her husband's funeral.
Not long after their deaths, the news that Xia Yaozu and Chu Yuzhu had a heart disease was spread by unknown sources. People even believed that Chu Yuzhu had contracted the heart disease before marrying Xia Yaozu, so it was passed to Xia Yaozu and their
My daughter was also judged by the villagers as having a bad reputation.
From then on, the life of the grandfather and grandson in the village became more and more difficult. Fortunately, Chu Yuzhu and Xia Yaozu left some savings during their lifetime. Although it was not much, it was enough for the grandfather and grandson to use for a while.
After all, Meili was the child's aunt, and she often helped the Xia family's lives.
When that child reached the age of going to school, the country and the family began to implement nine-year compulsory education, and it basically cost nothing to go to school. Although Xia Yaozu's child was looked down upon by everyone, she was luckier than her father after all, although she was still very poor.
But at least I can study.
At this point, Xia Xiaobei began to sob quietly.
I put my arm around her shoulders and patted her gently.
For a long time, Xia Xiaobei looked up at me and said, "Hu Ling, I wholeheartedly want to go to a police school. I just want to be a police officer when I grow up, so that the world will have fewer shady businessmen hiding underground. I
If dad hadn't encountered the underground black blood station, neither he nor my mother would have died so miserably."
"Xiaobei, your wish will come true soon, I believe in you!" I said.
Before this, I never thought that Xia Xiaobei's experience would be so tragic. She was too naive, optimistic and lively. If she didn't say it, you would basically not see the shadow of depression and decadence in her. I think this is all Grandpa Xia's fault.
Credit goes.
Sure enough, Xia Xiaobei continued: "Fortunately, I have a good grandfather. He doesn't understand any big principles, but he loves me and dotes on me. When I was young, the children in the village were afraid that I would have the same disease as my parents, so they didn't want to
Playing with me, my grandpa told me that because I was a little fairy from the sky who came down to earth and was born with light, because I was different from other children, that’s why they were afraid of me, and my aunt, for so many years.
, I don’t know what method I used to prevent even a word of those disgusting people from falling into my ears. I didn’t know the story about my parents until I was a freshman in high school, and that’s when I cried for them.
After a few scenes, I cried because I was looked down upon by others, but do you know what my grandfather told me?"
I didn't answer, just shook her hand.
"My grandpa told me that in this world, there are people who are good to you and people who are bad to you. We can't live uncomfortably because of other people's evil. Either we kick the can in the face or just ignore it. If you get angry everywhere, everything will happen.
Keep it in your heart, but it turns into working hard to live for those people. Hu Ling, you said that although my grandfather didn't study much, he didn't live a particularly transparent life. From then on, I really didn't care about others.
How do you look at me and say something about me?" Xia Xiaobei continued.
"Grandpa Xia is a really good person, and so is my fourth uncle. She also taught me a lot about life when I was a child." I said with some nostalgia.
Speaking of this, I thought of the aunt Xia Xiaobei mentioned, Meili.
"By the way, Xiaobei, don't you still have an aunt? You followed me to Jiangbei, will your aunt worry about you?" I asked her.
"My aunt died a year earlier than my grandfather. She died of stomach cancer. In order to treat my aunt, my grandfather helped her sell out all the canteens, but in the end he could not save her life. As for my maternal grandfather,
I have never seen this family before. Later I found out that even when my mother died, they thought my mother and father died in an ugly way and did not even come to see them for the last time. Hu Ling, besides you, I have no one else to look at now.
There are no other relatives, so I will be so sad when you ask me to leave and don't let me follow you anymore." Xia Xiaobei said, holding my hand tightly.
When Xia Xiaobei mentioned her maternal grandfather's family, there was no hatred or resentment in her eyes, only the indifference of strangers. This chapter has been completed!
