Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

Sacrifice? This word seemed far away from Lu Xiu'e. In the past, these two words seemed to be just a noun, but now? It was actually happening to her family...

"Sacrificed? Your father sacrificed himself? How could he sacrifice himself? He has a son, a daughter, and a granddaughter. How could he sacrifice himself?"

Dabao knew that his mother had gone crazy. He stretched out his trembling hand and gently pressed behind his mother's ear. Lu Xiu'e's eyes rolled back and she fainted again.

Dabao filled a cup with water from the well and gave it to his mother to drink.

At this time, Xiaohua pushed the door open and came in. Seeing her brother and aunt like this, she was stunned for a moment. She still didn't know that her uncle had died.

Dabao wiped his tears and said, "Xiaohua, please help me take care of your aunt. I'll go make a phone call."

Xiaohua agreed,

Dabao came out of the ward and went to the doctor's office. He had to call his grandma and aunt. Now, only his grandma and aunt could comfort his mother.

On the other end of the phone, the old lady was stunned when she heard Dabao's words. The microphone slipped from her hand and tears streamed down her face...

Bai Xiuying rushed to the hospital after hearing Dabao's call. At this moment, the entire Lu family was plunged into grief...

． ． ． ．

In the following days, Dabao was immersed in sorrow. He kept blaming himself, thinking that if he had shot his father at that time, his father would not have died.

In just a few days, Dabao became extremely thin. Every day, he would just sit in the courtyard with his daughter and Niuniu in his arms, daydreaming.

Everyone in the institute knew about this situation, and no one came to disturb him. Zuo Mingyue also put down all his work and stayed at home every day to accompany Dabao and mother-in-law.

Lu Xiu'e stayed in the hospital for one day and was taken back to the courtyard. She fell ill immediately and her grandmother moved in to take care of her daughter every day. Bai Xiuying also lived here after work.

Everyone in the courtyard knew what had happened, and they all came to comfort Lu Xiu'e. Lu Xiu'e was dazed and could not get out of the sadness.

Little Erbao seemed to have grown up overnight. He no longer went out to play with Banggeng, but just lay on the table, reading and doing homework. Dabao did not stop him because he knew that this was Little Erbao, using another way to distract himself from his sadness.

Wenwen was not at home. Last month, Lu Liye sent someone to take her to Jinzhou and she was going to come back for the summer vacation. Little Nuannuan seemed to know what happened at home. She did not cry or make a fuss, but just hugged her father's neck and hummed softly.

One evening after the incident, Director Wang and the union director of the Red Star Steel Mill came to Dabao's home.

Director Wang saw Dabao, holding two children, sitting in the yard. She walked in and patted Dabao on the shoulder.

Dabao raised his head and forced a smile.

"Auntie Wang, you're here..."

Director Wang nodded.

"Dabao, the incident has already happened. You have to accept the change and mourn. We don't just look at the dead, we have to look at the living. You have to cheer up.

Now that your father is gone, you are the only man left as the pillar of the family. You must be strong! "

Dabao put his sister down and stood up holding his daughter. He held his sister's hand.

"Don't worry, Aunt Wang, you are..."

Director Wang introduced: "This is Director Li from the Red Star Steel Mill Union. We are here for your father's memorial service.

The factory director, Yang, and two other workers also died in the accident, so the factory decided to hold a large memorial service.

The meeting report was submitted to the Ministry these past two days, and the Ministry leaders have already issued instructions to vigorously publicize it, so we came here today to invite you, your mother, and your entire family to attend the memorial service."

Dabao nodded and said, "Then tell my mom." Dabao lowered his head and said to Niuniu, "Be good and take Auntie to find Mom."

Niuniu nodded obediently. Director Wang and Director Li followed Niuniu into the room.

Nuan Nuan hugged her father's neck and called out "Daddy" loudly. She can now say quite a few words.

Dabao hugged his daughter tightly, and his daughter rubbed her face against his. Zuo Mingyue came out of the house and came to Dabao. She frowned slightly and looked up at Dabao.

Dabao held her hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine. Let's go see grandpa and grandma tomorrow..."

Zuo Mingyue nodded and took her daughter.

Cuicui made you some noodles with soybean paste. Please have at least one bite. You haven't had a proper meal in the past few days. You look so thin."

Dabao forced a smile, knowing that it was him who made her worried.

Cuicui came out with some noodles with soybean paste. She had not been working these days and had been taking care of the family. The little girl, who was only sixteen or seventeen years old, seemed to have become an adult overnight.

She handed the noodles to her brother. Dabao forced a smile. Even if he had no appetite, he had to eat the noodles. He knew that everyone in the family was watching him. If he continued to be sad and depressed, it would put more pressure on his family.

Dabao took the noodles, touched Cuicui's hair and asked, "Has your aunt eaten?"

Cuicui sighed and shook her head. Dabao took the bowl of noodles and went to the bedroom with Mingyue. Cuicui followed behind, holding Niuniu's hand, and went in together.

After entering, I saw Director Wang sitting on the edge of the kang, holding Lu Xiu'e's hand and constantly comforting her. Lu Xiu'e was leaning on the kang piano, her eyes blank and unfocused. I didn't know what she was looking at. She seemed to be detached from the whole world.

Dabao knew that this was because his mother had trapped her sadness in her mind and became autistic.

He sat on the other side of his mother and said,

"Mom, Dad is too tired, so he wants to take a break. You can't take a break. You still have me, Xiaoer, Niuniu, your daughter-in-law, and your granddaughter. My dad is too selfish. He left us behind and left. We can't learn from him."

Lu Xiu'e's eyes seemed to turn around, but she still said nothing. Dabao turned around and saw Erbao lying on the table, writing and calculating non-stop. He knew that his younger brother put all his sorrow into the book.

He waved his hand: "Waiter, come here, brother."

Erbao raised his head, looked at his brother, jumped off the chair obediently, and walked to Dabao.

Dabao picked him up and let his little head rest on his shoulder. Dabao put the bowl of noodles on the kang. He patted Erbao's back gently and whispered,

"Xiaoer, now there are only two men left in the family, you and I, so the task of taking care of my mother, sister, sister-in-law, and niece falls on our shoulders."

The second child hugged his brother's neck and cried softly for a while. The eldest child breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was okay to cry.

Lu Xiu'e heard the cry of her youngest son. She seemed to be awakened and reached out to hug Erbao. Dabao put Erbao in her arms. Niuniu also climbed up and snuggled into her mother's arms.

Lu Xiu'e hugged her son and daughter and started crying. Erbao and Niuniu also started crying with their mother.

Dabao held Zuo Mingyue's hand and breathed a sigh of relief. Zuo Mingyue was about to try to persuade him, but Dabao shook his head. "Mom, if she cries this time, she'll be completely fine. Although she's still very sad, it'll take time to fade away..."
