The Record of Reemployment of the Laid-off Emperor

Aromas of rice and firewood.

"My parents passed away when I was very young, and I grew up with my grandma in a very small and dilapidated countryside," I sat on the dining room chair by the window with a cup of hot cocoa in my hand, "She She was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, which no one can cure in my hometown, so I took her to City A for treatment, and I did everything."

I tried to describe my experience as miserable as possible, put down the hot cocoa and showed it to Cen Weiyu, "Professor Cen, you have investigated me, you should know that I have no education, I can only rely on selling cheap labor for a meager salary, moving bricks on construction sites, sanitation workers , I've done it all."

"I really can't help it, that's my grandma, I can't leave her alone," I lowered my eyelashes to hide the disgust in my eyes, actually every word that came out of my mouth made me sick.

Grandma, stop joking.

Zhang Yuanying abandoned everyone, she was a weak coward, she let the blankness swallow her up, and escaped into a world without the pain of bereavement and the pressure of life.

Only she is not allowed to escape.

"At that time your younger brother came to me, I really..." I put my hand under the dining table and pinched the soft flesh on my thigh, the pain swept my whole body, I raised my head and looked at Cen Weiyu who was sitting opposite me with tears in my eyes.

After much deliberation on how to wash away the negative impression, I finally came up with a solution - sell badly.I put all my carelessness, greed and hypocrisy on Zhang Yuanying, and said that everything I did that violated the bottom line of morality was a last resort to treat her illness.

I was forced to say the most important things, and I have to say ten points.

In fact, just from the appearance, what I said was indeed the same as what I did. Over the years, most of my savings have been spent on Zhang Yuanying.

I gave her the best medicine, saw the best doctor, received the best nursing care, and found a caring nurse. Putting aside my heartfelt malice, I am indeed a good grandson.

Cen Weiyu didn't know whether to believe it or not, and frowned, "You change your clothes first."

The tone was flat without leaving room for comment, and I realized that if I didn't do what he wanted, he would immediately end the conversation I had initiated.

Half an hour ago, relying on my friendship with Lin Yu, I had the cheek to ask Cen Weiyu to treat me to a meal.

There are many cafeterias, restaurants, and restaurants near the hospital. I sharply picked the one with the most high-end decoration.

I borrowed a hair dryer and towels from the waiter, and roughly disposed of the wet clothes in the bathroom-just enough to not drip down.

Hearing Cen Weiyu's words, I subconsciously looked down. The upholstery of the mahogany armchair was already wet with water, and there were deep wet marks on the edge of where I was sitting. A disgusted look was cast on me.

Look away, I understand, I feel ashamed.

I must hold Cen Weiyu, and I must not give up all my previous efforts. I lowered my eyelids, glanced down at the corner of my mouth, and said in the most cowardly tone: "I'm sorry, Professor Cen, I didn't feel that the clothes were not dried and the chair was dirty. You should go right away." Change your clothes, or finish your meal?"

I peeked at Cen Weiyu out of the corner of my eye, and found that he was not pleased by my humble attitude, but his complexion became even worse.

Damn, show your face to someone, I've never been able to do small things, and I'm so angry that I can't help it.

At this moment, a stack of hundred-yuan bills was pushed in front of me, "Eat by yourself, I'll go and see Kexin."

"Crack," I quickly raised my hand to press the banknote, and said joyfully, "Go, go, I'll eat by myself, Xiao Tang's body is important."

I glanced roughly, there were about thirty of them, and my heart suddenly became more beautiful, and all the grievances I had just been swept away.

Cen Weiyu walked quickly, my attention was all attracted by the fiery red banknotes, and I didn't notice him for a moment.I didn't wake up until the waiter came to my table with the menu and asked me what I wanted to eat.

It's over, Yi Zhongtian!

I stood up abruptly, my knee bumped against the corner of the table without noticing, and I grinned in pain, too late, too late, Cen Weiyu left early.

"Guest, are you okay?" The waiter's voice sounded.

I hugged my knees, bowed like a shrimp, looked up and gouged out the waiter, pushed him away, and walked out the door lamely.

When I walked to the front desk, I endured the dull pain and stood up straight. I pulled out a few banknotes, rolled them into tubes, and inserted them into the collar of the waiter who had looked down on me before.

As expected, all the unhappiness in the world was caused by lack of money. The attitude of the service staff changed drastically, and they warmly sent me out of the restaurant.

I admit it, cool.

I stood on the side of the road and hailed a taxi. After giving the address, I rested my head on the window of the car.

As soon as he closed his eyes, the image of Tang Kexin and Yi Zhongtian being raped by Cen Weiyu appeared involuntarily in his mind. It is not appropriate to use the word "catch rape", but if Cen Weiyu finds out that Tang Kexin and Yi Zhongtian meet, then Tang Kexin's life will definitely be difficult in the future.

I hope Yi Zhongtian has already left. I have been helping you for so long, and I deserve it if I get caught again.

Thinking in a daze, I gradually fell asleep.

Not a good dream.

I escaped into the vast nothingness, one door after another appeared around me, the darkness covered my eyes like a blindfold, I lost my perception of the surroundings, and instinctively staggered into the door closest to me.

The first sense to recover is the sense of touch. The cold musty-smelling water dripped on the tip of my nose, and the slippery slate beneath me was tightly pressed against me.

The next sense to recover is smell, I smell, smell, musty smell, watery smell, rusty smell.

What about vision?vision?I tried my best to open my eyes, but fell into a deeper and deeper darkness.

"Huh, huh," I woke up from the nightmare dripping with cold sweat, subconsciously touched my eyeballs, my eyelashes swept to my palms, the itch was still there.

"Young man, are you okay?" The driver's worried eyes were printed in the rearview mirror.

I shook my head and casually replied, "I had a bad dream."

It's all a dream, the Yong Dynasty ended a thousand years ago, Qingyang Bi died, everything is over long ago, I said to myself silently in my heart.

The driver breathed a sigh of relief, and babbled, "Young man, don't be too stressed at a young age, just want to drive..."

I didn't listen to him, and turned my head to look out the car window. Rows of high-rise buildings gradually drifted away, replaced by low-rise bungalows and old tube buildings, and I realized that I was approaching.

……

The taxi stops next to the canteen outside Tongzilou.

"A total of 25 yuan,"

I took the change from the driver and put it in my trouser pocket.

From the canteen, a mechanical female voice announced the time on time, "It's eight o'clock Beijing time, welcome."

The canteen is brightly illuminated by incandescent lamps, and there are rows of instant noodles and drinks on the shelves. I suddenly feel hungry and unbearable, and I am about to buy some junk food. A familiar figure hurried towards me stepping on the shadow of the street lamp Come.

With a stooped figure, his head buried low and his eyes only staring at his own toes, his steps are a bit slow, and I recognized who it was at a glance——Wang Chun.

What is she looking for from me?I suddenly felt bad, the only connection between me and Wang Chun was Zhang Yuanying.

"Xiao Yang, your grandma..." Wang Chun stood in front of me, not daring to look at me, and stammered, "Your grandma is gone."

My premonition came true, I was eerily calm, and I was even able to sort out my well-organized questions, "When did you find out that she was missing, where have you been today? Is she awake today, what did she say to you, and did she eat on time? medicine."

Wang Chun was panicked and anxious, "She took her medicine on time today. After lunch, I took her for a walk. When I got home, she said she wanted to sleep. I put her on the bed...and then...then."

Wang Chun's voice was full of tears, "I put her to sleep, and then I went to do the laundry, and she disappeared after a while... I searched, I searched everywhere, but I couldn't find her, I I've always wanted to contact you, but you don't have a mobile phone, I don't know where you went, I can't find you..." Wang Chun raised his hand and slapped himself on the face desperately, squatting on the ground and crying: "Xiao Yang, I'm sorry Fuck you, I'm damned, I'm damned!"

I was so calm, so calm beyond imagination, I could even taste Wang Chun's complaints against me in his words, why didn't you get a phone card, why did you go out today.

But now is not the time to argue with her, "Did you call the police? If you don't call the police, call the police first. Tell me all the places you have been to today. Where is Sister Huang? Tell her that I want to watch the surveillance."

A big living person was lost, and the matter was so important that no one dared to neglect it. Sister Huang was pulled down from the poker table to check the surveillance for us, but the surveillance camera had already stopped working due to disrepair. Looking at the pitch-black computer screen, Huang The eldest sister ran her fingers through her hair back and forth in embarrassment, and asked tentatively: "Xiao Yang, don't you know a rich man and ask him to help you find it?"

Cen Weiyu?I shook my head and walked out of the monitoring room without saying a word.

Why would Cen Weiyu help me.

Sure enough, Wang Chun did not call the police. She was full of repulsion to the police because of her son, thinking that he was a hungry wolf who ate people without spitting out bones. I asked Sister Huang to take Wang Chun to the police station. .

The person was lost in the afternoon, it is already eight o'clock in the evening, can you still find it?She is confused and has no money. In her memory, her home is thousands of miles away in the countryside. She is not familiar with City A at all. Where can she go?

I walked along the road where they were walking and asked, "Have you ever seen an old man walk past here, it's about this tall." I gestured to a young mother and daughter passing by, "Wearing gray cotton tops, black Bell-bottom pants, have you seen them?"

I haven't seen it, I asked everyone passing by, and the answer is that I haven't seen it.

I don’t know how long it has passed, my legs are so sore that I can’t walk, and there is no one on the road. I sit on the bench next to the street lamp. There was a heavy rain in the evening, and the wooden bench was not dry, and it was cold to sit on.

Yes, it's raining, and it's still raining today.

Suddenly, my eyes felt sore and irritated, the light was dazzling, and the dim yellow light of the street lamp hit me. I lay down on the bench with my legs curled up, and covered my eyelids with my hands.

I thought of the dream in the taxi, yes, my eyes were sore because of that dream, or maybe it was the glare of the street lamps.

In fact, when Wang Chun said that Zhang Yuanying was gone, I realized that Zhang Yuanying was not confused, she was so confused that she didn't know what she was doing, she was conscious when she left, and she left on her own initiative, leaving me.

She has long since hated me.

Zhang Yuanying may think that I don't remember, but I actually remember very clearly.

At that time, she was four or five years old. Unfortunately, the father of this body had an accident when he went out to cut wood. When the body was brought back, Zhang Yuanying burst into tears. The mother of this body did not cry. She must have had enough of the poverty in the countryside. Husband dies.

I didn't cry either. At that time I couldn't tell whether I was Qingyang Bi or Yang Qing. I was trapped in the dungeon. They first gouged out my eyes, and then wielded the boning knife to goug out my flesh and blood one after another. , It hurts too much, the pain of cutting bones and gouging flesh is engraved into my soul, even if I am reincarnated, it will torture me day and night.I've been stuck in a dungeon with no way out and no way to respond to external stimuli.

But I could hear Zhang Yuanying and the woman swearing at each other, and the woman said that Zhang Yuanying had ruined her life and that her son deserved it.

Zhang Yuanying scolded her as a prostitute, who didn't obey women's ways, and killed her son and even her grandson.

The woman scolded again, saying that her grandson was born stupid and had brain problems, and Lao Yang's family had lost all children and grandchildren.

In her eyes, I am not her son, but a stumbling block in her pursuit of happiness, and a dog of the same breed who made a fool of her with the Yang family.

Zhang Yuanying rushed up to fight the woman, rode on her body, and slapped her left and right.She screamed and scratched Zhang Yuanying's face with her nails. She howled and cursed: "Zhang Yuanying, Yang Jianmin! You have ruined my whole life! The small Qingwa color TV bicycles that you promised are all cheating my son! Yang Jianmin, you short-lived ghost! You In the next life, there will be no assholes when you give birth to a child!"

Zhang Yuanying had had enough beating, she climbed down from her, fished me out from the pile of firewood, and gently stroked my back, "Oh, it scared us to be good, don't be afraid."

That woman sat up from the ground, wiped the ashes off her buttocks, closed the open neckline with her hands, and ran away from her quagmire without looking back. Maybe she didn't have the determination I thought, maybe she turned her head, at a certain moment she turned her head looked at her son.

But I can't remember clearly, I just remember the scent of rice and firewood on Zhang Yuanying's body, simple and reassuring.

She hugged me and hugged me into a warm embrace. I was no longer imprisoned in the dark dungeon. What I smelled was no longer blood and mildew. I saw the light, and I was freed from the long night.

I felt her cheek against mine, with hot tears dripping on my eyelids, and I heard her voice, "Let's go, they all go, grandma will grow up with us obediently, other children have father Mom, my obediently has a grandma."

But she broke her promise.

After breathing enough, I sat up from the bench, probably because I hadn't eaten anything and walked for too long, my mind was a little dizzy, I pinched my face, trying to wake up.

The light of the street lamp was suddenly blocked, and a large shadow was cast on the left side. The outline of the shadow blocked my whole body. I raised my head and tried my best to open my eyes wide.

The visitor turned his back on the light and looked from my direction. I could just see his stern nose bridge, and his amber pupils hidden under his eyelids. I saw myself in his eyes, with a head of gray hair, With red eye corners and pale face, it was almost like crying.

Well, I admit it, from the moment Zhang Yuanying disappeared, I was so sad that I was about to cry, I was so upset.

I knelt on the bench, stared at Cen Weiyu in a posture of looking up, raised my hand and grabbed his sleeve, choked up and said: "Help me...help me."

it is good.
