In a rural place like ours, people from the same family often live close to each other.
There is a wolf dog in front of my cousin¡¯s house, and it keeps barking whenever I get close.
I have seen this wolfdog before when I went home for the New Year. It¡¯s a pity that I recognized it but it didn¡¯t recognize me.
"Da Huang, don't bark! This is one of our own!" At this time, the cousin came down and slapped the wolf dog on the head. The wolf dog immediately became quiet and stopped barking.
¡°Ah Hui, come up quickly, I haven¡¯t seen you for a long time.¡± My cousin-in-law said to me with a smile.
I responded with a smile: "Sister-in-law, I haven't seen you for a while and you are young and beautiful again."
¡°Hey, I¡¯m already in my thirties and I¡¯m still saying this.¡± My cousin-in-law said this, but she couldn¡¯t hide the smile on her face.
No matter what age you are, as long as you sincerely praise a woman for being young and beautiful, she will definitely be happy in her heart.
While going upstairs, I chatted with my cousin about household matters.
"Ah Hui, come in quickly and have a taste of the tiger wine I've been brewing for a long time!"
"You can't taste this stuff even if you have money. It was a friend of mine who got a piece of wine soaked in tiger bones through some connections!" My cousin put his arm around my shoulder very enthusiastically.
Like most simple country men, my cousin is also a good drinker.
If it were normal times, I would definitely have a good drink with my cousin, but today I am really not in the mood, and I didn¡¯t come to my cousin¡¯s place just to drink.
"Brother Yang, actually I have other things to do when I come here this time." I said to my cousin after I sat down.
"What's up?"
"I have a favor that I would like you to help me with."
"You can tell me what you're doing, and whoever is with us will follow you!" Just as my cousin said these words with great pride, his cousin's clothes were tugged on and he glared at her.
I organized my words and said in a low voice: "My dad has esophageal cancer and needs 250,000 yuan for surgery. Our family scraped together 210,000 yuan, and we still have 40,000 yuan left. I came here today to ask you. ¡¡±
"Oh, I've also heard about uncle's illness. Ayang went to the hospital to see uncle a few days ago. I was wondering why you didn't come back. It turns out you just came back today." My cousin said to me slowly. It could be heard that there was a hint of thorn in her words.
"I collected the money after I found out about it, and rushed back immediately after collecting it." I defended myself, not wanting them to misunderstand me as an unfilial son.
"Ah Hui, if I had money, I would also like to lend it to you. But our family has not had enough to eat, and it is not easy to have enough food. We really don't have any spare money." The cousin-in-law asked with a difficult look on her face. I said.
The cousin opened his mouth to say something, but after being glared at by the cousin-in-law, he took it back.
"If you don't have 40,000 yuan, can you borrow 10,000 yuan or 20,000 yuan?" I still don't want to give up. I can borrow as much as I can.
"Ah Hui, let's make do with it, and I can lend you two thousand." My cousin-in-law sighed and said to me.
As far as I know, my cousin¡¯s fish pond business has been doing very well in the past two years. Why is the family so poor?
Two thousand dollars will not help at all.
"Forget it, Brother Yang, I'll think of another way." I stood up, shook my head, and prepared to leave.
"Ah Hui, take two crucian carp before you go. This crucian carp weighs four kilograms!" My cousin quickly packed two crucian carps for me.
I walked out of their house carrying it.
As soon as they closed the iron door of their house, they heard a sound like thunder from their cousin¡¯s wife.
"Are you stupid? You still want to lend money to their family. Who knows whether they can afford to pay it back in the future?"
"I almost forgot. Gao Hui is bankrupt and still in debt. If he borrows the 40,000 yuan, it will be wasted. Fortunately, you reminded me."
I heard what the two couples said.
They probably didn¡¯t expect that I didn¡¯t leave.
I didn¡¯t say anything and still carried the two fish and left.
Sometimes you are kind to others, but others may not remember your kindness. I have understood this truth a long time ago, but when I actually faced it, I still felt ironic.
Gao Yang and I can be said to be two brothers. I treated him sincerely, but I never expected that we would get such a result.
After I went home and put the two fishes in the bucket, I went to another cousin¡¯s house.
I don¡¯t know if I received the message or not. I called him, but he just didn¡¯t answer.
Fortunately, at this time, my sister¡¯s 10,000 yuan had arrived, which finally made me feel a little relieved.
??Relatives and friends who are close to me are not as close as my biological brothers and sisters. I understand this deeply.
Looking at the messy display at home, I feel very complicated.
A few years ago, let alone 40,000, even 400,000 would not have pushed me to this point.
I don¡¯t care for now. Mom must be hungry in the hospital. I will put aside other thoughts for the time being and wash vegetables and cook.
Since I got married, I haven¡¯t had many opportunities to cook at home. Playing with the dull kitchen knife at home, an indescribable emotion surged into my heart.
My cooking skills have improved even more during my married life. After all, I have been working as a cook for the family for so many years.
After finishing the meal, I packed it and sent it to my mother.
My mother believed that I could borrow the money and didn¡¯t ask any more questions. Instead, she talked about my family.
"Ah Hui, how are you and Weiwei doing lately?"
"It's a normal married life, what else can we do?" I said in an understatement.
"This is best. There is always one person in the family who has to be humble. If a family with two strong people cannot last, I also know that Weiwei's temper is not very good, so you should give in to her more."
My mother has tolerated my father for decades. Finally, my father¡¯s character gradually became gentler with age, but he encountered this serious illness.
¡°Mom, no man would be able to bear it. I thought silently in my heart without saying it out loud.
The last time my mother came to my house, she heard about the conflict between Wu Weiwei and me, but she didn¡¯t know what the source of the conflict was, and I didn¡¯t dare to tell her.
The old man is too old to be stimulated.
"Eat quickly, Mom, the vegetables will get cold if you don't eat them."
"Well, your cooking is quite good." Mom said while eating.
My mother and I stayed with my father until the evening, and sometimes when I woke up, I would chat with him.
"Mom, I'll be here with Dad tonight. You can go back and rest."
"I'm used to it these days, just let me come. I'm afraid you won't be able to stay up late."
"Look at how thin you have become. Go back to bed tonight and don't worry, I'll take care of you."
"Then I'll go back first. If you have to change shifts, just call me. If you need anything, just call me." Mom warned me again and again before leaving.
It¡¯s night.
I stayed in front of the hospital bed, watching my father turn over and moan from time to time, and I felt very uncomfortable.
My father is a tough guy. He has been beaten and scolded all his life, but he has never said a word of pain, but now he is tortured by illness and can't speak.
"Ah Hui, you haven't gone back to bed yet?" My father opened his eyes and asked me weakly.
"I'm not sleepy yet, Dad, how are you feeling?"
"Ah Hui, I don't dare to tell your mother. I feel so uncomfortable right now that I really want to hit my head against the wall and die. Give me a cigarette to relieve the pain." My father said to me in an almost begging tone. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
