"Dad, I don't want to go to school anymore. I want to go out to work to earn money for my mother's medical treatment.",
"Snapped"
When Jiang Yige said he didn't want to go to school, his father gave him a slap. Growing up, his parents had never slapped him. But when he heard Jiang Yige said he didn't want to go to school, Jiang You slapped him without hesitation. An angry Jiang You pointed out
Jiang Yige said.
"No matter how hard and tired your mother and I are, we have to support you in school. Even if your mother knows that she is sick, she is reluctant to spend money to go to the hospital. But you don't want to go to the hospital now. Do you know how sad your mother will be if she finds out? All of us
All our expectations are on you. Why did we send you to school? Ah? We all hope that you can get out of this mountain and don't live on a few acres of land like us. I hope you have a good future, you are like this
How can I be worthy of your mother?"
"But without my mother, what's the point of being successful? Who should I honor when I become successful in the future? My mother is gone, what's the use of being successful? I would rather a family of three stay safe in this mountain.
I don’t want to live on a few acres of land. I will be successful and have money but don’t know who to honor. I don’t want to be a child without a mother! Ask who is willing to live a successful life without a mother? Ask me, Uncle Jiang Yi, you
Ask him how he feels without a father. Ask him whether he would rather have the big house now or live a happy and poor life with his parents by his side?" Jiang Yige ran out of the house as he spoke.
.
Jiang Yi is Jiang Yige's brother-in-law. He is a few years older than him. He lost his father when he was young. Later, his mother also remarried. Jiang Yi also followed his mother to his stepfather's house, but his stepfather didn't treat him well and often beat him.
Just scolding. When Jiang Yi was more than ten years old, he left his stepfather's house and went out to work alone. Jiang Yi was relatively hard-working and a very energetic person. After several years of hard work outside, he finally built a house on the foundation of their old house.
Got a new bungalow. For Jiang Yige and his village, it is considered outstanding!
After listening to his son's words, Jiang You fell silent, thinking about what he had worked so hard for most of his life? Wasn't it for this family? The younger daughter left early, and the older daughter went out to work and there was no news for several years.
.If his wife leaves again, will this home where only he and his son are left be a complete home?
"Hey! That's it! That's it! When your son grows up, let him do everything. Maybe he is right. Is a home with only father and son still considered a home? Can you still call it home?"
He ran to the gate of Zhengyuan Middle School in one breath. Jiang Yige waited for the end of school in a daze. He needed Leng Qing's comfort and tenderness now. The bell rang in his anticipation, and he looked at the students walking out of the school one by one. Jiang Yige
A trace of determination appeared on his face. He wanted to bid farewell to his school days, and he did not want to be a child without a mother. He wanted a complete family, even if the days to come would be difficult, but as long as his parents were by his side, no matter how miserable or poor he was,
All are happy.
"Ah? Yi! Yige, why are you here?"
Seeing Jiang Yige standing at the school gate, Leng Qing asked unnaturally. Her eyes were evasive and she didn't dare to look at Jiang Yige. She also looked around with her peripheral vision, as if she was afraid that someone would find her and Jiang Yige together. Jiang Yige, who was in sorrow, also
He didn't notice Leng Qing's abnormality. When Leng Qing asked him, Jiang Yige said.
"I have something to say to you!"
"Oh! Then! Let's go to the grove then!" Then he pulled Jiang Yige and walked towards the grove.
In the grove of the school, under the old pine tree. Jiang Yige took Leng Qing's hand and said, "Leng Qing, I have something to tell you."
"Well! I also have something to tell you!" But he broke away from the little hand held by Jiang Yige. Jiang Yige, who was in a low mood, didn't pay attention.
"Then you say it first"
"Yige, let's break up!"
"Breaking up? Why? Tell me if I'm not good enough, and I will definitely change it."
"No! It's not that you're not good enough, it's that I'm not good enough. I fell in love with someone else!"
"What?"
Hearing that Leng Qing fell in love with someone else, Jiang Yige felt that his world collapsed in an instant. His head felt dizzy. He almost lost his balance and fell to the ground. Jiang Yige tried his best to support himself by holding on to the old pine tree and looked at Leng Qing with dull eyes.
Qing asked: "Who do you like?"
"Liu Lei from our class."
"Liu Lei? Is he the town's son? Why did you fall in love with him? Didn't we agree to be together for the rest of our lives? Where's our old alliance?"
"But it's not enough for two people to be together. Like can't be eaten as food. Love needs bread."
" Oh. I see !"
"I'm sorry! Yige, I have been an orphan since I was a child. My grandparents raised me. I don't want to live the kind of life where every meal only has pickled cabbage soup and corn rice! I hate the contempt when others look at me. I suffer from it.
That's enough! This is the necklace you gave me, now I give it back to you, I'm sorry."
After saying that, he put the necklace in Jiang Yige's hand and left without looking back. Jiang Yige was left standing alone in a daze. Leng Qing's words when he left echoed in his mind.
"I don't want to live the kind of life where every meal is just pickled cabbage soup, corn rice! I hate the contempt others look at me. I've had enough!"
At this time, thunder suddenly sounded. Lightning penetrated the sky mercilessly. Jiang Yige came back to his senses and roared crazily, his voice disappearing in the thunderstorm. He ran towards the east like crazy, regardless of the huge raindrops that hurt his face.
Go. Run out of the campus, across the streets, through dense woods and into the depths of the mountains. Opposite are cliffs more than ten feet high.
"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Why? God! Why? Ah! My mother is leaving me, and Leng Qing has abandoned me. Why? Why? God!"
At this time, a strong wind suddenly blew up in the sky, and the thunder and lightning became even more raging. It seemed that everything in the world was going to be destroyed.
"God, are you angry? Are you angry? Are you going to hit me to death? Hahaha, hit me!"
As if he heard Jiang Yige's request, a purple lightning bolt struck at Jiang Yige, looking at the thunder and lightning that was about to hit him. Jiang Yige closed his eyes, and the smiles of his parents and the happiness with Leng Qing appeared in his mind.
time.
"As long as I can be with you, I am willing to go anywhere."
"Son, you are my parents' only hope. You have to study hard, you know?"
"Son, come and eat quickly. Mom has cooked egg noodles for you."
Scenes flashed by. Two lines of clear tears flowed down the corners of Jiang Yige's eyes and merged into the rain. The light flashed. The wind stopped, the rain stopped, and the thunder and lightning disappeared. A rainbow crossed the north, south, and east in the sky.
The morning sun was particularly bright after the rising rain. The place where Jiang Yige stood was empty and there was nothing. I didn't know if he had left or was chopped into fly ash by lightning. Everything returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
