[Rebirth] A long stream of water

"Brother, whose phone is it?" Seeing his blank face, Xiao Yu asked softly.

Xiao Ning raised his head to look at him. Under the dim light, Xiao Yu had a pure expression on his face, a little worried and a little at a loss. The light above his head seemed to dim instantly, and the shadows of the furniture on the wall became dark. Shallow and vague, Xiao Ning heard his calm voice resounding in the quiet room: "Something happened to my parents, I'm going to the hospital now."

Shocked, Xiao Yu immediately took his hand, "I'll go with you."

Xiao Ning didn't insist, and nodded in agreement.

On that day 14 years ago, he and Xiao Yu rushed to the hospital together in the same way. When they arrived, they only had time to see two bodies covered by white cloth. The parents' car collided with a truck. At the moment of the accident, his father In order to save his mother, he sent the side he was on under the wheel of a truck. He will never know that even if he did this, he still failed to save his mother. After that, he and Xiao Yu became orphans. The small savings became the only guarantee for the two children who had just entered the first year of high school.

At that time, Xiao Ning was too young, and hadn't recovered from the shock of losing his parents. The money claimed in the accident and the property left by his parents were all divided up by his relatives. In the end, even the house was sold. He and Xiao Yu became orphans, and were thrown around by relatives like a football until he dropped out of school and entered the underworld. Xiao Yu was adopted by a childless couple next door, and finally lived a happy life.

What happened later is unbearable.

The two of them ran out of the house at the rush hour, and all the taxis had "full passengers" signs on them. Xiao Yu's face was anxious, but Xiao Ning was unusually calm.

He has experienced it once, and to do it again is just to uncover the scars in his heart and let them dry out. Naturally, it hurts, but he has passed the age of expressing emotions and anger.

The taxis were all full, Xiao Ning suddenly stepped onto the road amidst his younger brother's increasingly anxious expression, blocking the way of a black car.

The driver slammed on the brakes a short distance away from him, and cursed at the little brat, "What are you doing? You're looking for death!"

Xiao Ning went over and opened the co-pilot's door, pulled his younger brother who was stunned aside, then opened the back seat door and sat in, said in a deep voice, "Uncle, please take us to the Third People's Hospital, my parents just If you are in a car accident and you are not out of danger, if you are a person with conscience, please agree to my request." It is common sense if the driver picks them up and throws them on the side of the road in the next second, because most people in this world So indifferent.

Xiao Ning is one of them.

The uncle driver probably didn't expect to meet such two poor kids, he said dissatisfiedly, "What if I don't?"

Xiao Ning pursed his lips, and said calmly: "If you don't want to help, uncle, I have nothing to say, but I will remember the license plate and smash it every time I see you."

The driver gave him a funny look, then started the car and sped towards the hospital.

A huge billboard flew past the closed car window, and the bright lights on the side of the road dispelled the heavy shadow inside the car. Xiao Ning turned his head sideways, looked out the window, and unexpectedly saw himself young on the window glass. With an immature face, a 14-year-old boy who should have smiled wantonly, but became so sophisticated because of the sudden death of his parents. Suddenly thinking of that year, Xiao Yu opened a pair of dazed eyes, and tightly tugged at his clothes with his fingers. corner, and asked tremblingly: "Brother, will father and mother never come back?"

He hated this younger brother since he was a child, but now he couldn't bear to say those hurtful words. He just held him in his arms and said softly: "Mom and Dad walked together, and they will continue to be happy in another place."

Xiao Yu nodded cautiously, and repeated in his mouth: "Parents will be happy."

Relatives said that the two brothers were white-eyed wolves, and that their parents died without even shedding a tear.

Xiao Yu was always sad about this, and quietly grabbed the corner of his clothes and said, "Brother, what should I do? I can't cry."

Xiao Ning patted his thin shoulder and said, "Me too."

The car stopped in front of the hospital half an hour later. There were countless patients and family members coming and going at the gate of the crowded hospital. Xiao Ning thanked the driver and gave the driver a few dollars. He didn't care if the driver picked it up or not. Without stopping any longer, he dragged Xiao Yu into the hospital.

When Xiao Ning and Xiao Yu rushed to the door of the operating room, several people were already waiting there, and when they saw them coming, they all stood up to greet them.

During the many years of being the boss of the Youth Gang, Xiao Ning always thought, why didn't he see clearly that those so-called relatives would eventually divide up the property left by his parents after their death?Why did they hate and force them to take in their two brothers?Why is the warmth and peace created by those parents when they were still alive in the past all false?

It took him many years to understand that human nature is so sinister that he no longer dared to confess his heart to anyone, dared not have illusions about anyone, even his own younger brother was picky and difficult in everything, just because A Jin Feng.

"Xiao Ning, Xiao Yu, why are you here?" Auntie looked at the two brothers with worry on her face, her heartache and worry were perfectly balanced.

Seeing that his brother was silent, Xiao Yu hurriedly said, "Auntie, how are my parents?"

"It's still undergoing surgery." The little uncle's loyal face was full of anxiety. He was naturally really worried and cared for the two brothers of the Xiao family. Unfortunately, women were in charge of everything in the family, so he couldn't say anything.

Xiao Ning pulled Xiao Yu to sit on a chair beside him, and heard his uncle say, "Why hasn't the surgery come out after so long? Has the driver who caused the accident been found?"

Xiao Ning sneered in his heart, the latter sentence was the most important to him, as long as the driver who caused the accident was caught, he would get a huge amount of compensation, which he couldn't earn back even if he sold vegetables for a lifetime.

The eldest aunt said in a low voice: "The factory has reported the case. I heard that the driver who caused the accident has been caught. He should come over later."

After about an hour, the door of the operating room was pushed open.

Xiao Ning stood up and ran over, without any suspense, he saw two pieces of white cloth, under which were lying his two closest relatives, Xiao Yu was beside him, holding his hand tightly, tears finally rolled down, the doctor Seeing the grief on the faces of the two teenagers, they sighed, "I'm sorry, we have tried our best."

With trembling hands, Xiao Ning lifted the white cloth, his parents looked the same as he remembered, their mother was a beautiful woman who liked to wear light makeup and a bright red dress, and his father would always bring her presents when he came back from business trips , sometimes a pair of high heels, sometimes a bouquet of lilies, both of them are typical romantics, even though they have been married for many years and their children are in their teens, they still like romance so much. Get up and secretly smile.

If death is a journey, Xiao Ning hopes that parents can meet in another world and continue their romance.

The remains of his parents were more peaceful than he imagined, Xiao Ning stretched out his hand, caressing their eyes that would never open again, his heart felt like being gouged desperately with a blunt instrument, it hurt.

The police who came later gave them a detailed description and explained the compensation. Because the truck driver was drunk and driving, the other party was fully responsible.

As soon as they heard the word "compensation", the eyes of several adults glistened. Before they could speak, they heard the silent young man say: "Mr. Police, my brother and I have full authority over my parents. Outsiders interfere."

"You child, I am your mother's biological sister, how can I be considered an outsider." The aunt was the first to be dissatisfied.

Xiao Ning didn't look at her, but looked at the older policeman, and said cautiously: "If I can't handle this matter alone because of my young age, I can hire a lawyer."

The middle-aged policeman looked at the determination in the child's eyes, and remembered how many accidents like this, in which the relatives swallowed up all the money he got in the end, but the child lived alone. After thinking about it, he said: "After all, you have not yet Adults, according to the country's regulations, you must have a legal guardian." At this point, the policeman looked at the adults around him and said to Xiao Ning, "Are your grandparents or grandparents still there?"

Xiao Ning shook his head.

"What about great-grandfather and great-grandmother?" The middle-aged policeman asked tentatively again.

Xiao Ning wanted to shake his head, but suddenly stopped, his great-grandmother should still be around, she is about seventy years old now, so he said: "I have a great-grandmother, she also lives in Anning, can she be our legal guardian? "Great-grandmother always loved him and Xiao Yu, but she was pissed off by her uncle and aunt.

"Does she have any disease or symptoms of dementia?" the policeman asked.

Xiao Ning shook his head. Although his great-grandmother is old, she still has good eyes and ears.

"That's fine. You can take your great-grandmother to the neighborhood committee to go through the formalities in a few days. This will make things much easier."

Xiao Ning nodded understandingly, "Then I'll give you an answer when I'm done. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. I hope Mr. Police can understand that my brother and I are the most qualified to handle this matter." People.” Even if the money parents have worked so hard to earn all their lives is thrown into the river, these so-called close relatives cannot swallow it up.

The middle-aged policeman took a deep look at him, and then led his subordinates away.

As soon as the police left, the two brothers of the Xiao family were attacked by their aunt and uncle. The aunt said, Xiao Ning, what is the matter with your child?The eldest aunt said Xiao Ning, you are too sincere, we just want your parents to be buried in peace, the uncle's wishful plan was completely shattered by such a disturbance, and said angrily, Xiao Ning, you little bastard, what are you doing? Could it be that people from my Xiao family can't even trust my uncle?

Xiao Ning is no longer a 14-year-old boy who has nothing to do. He just said a few words and silenced several adults. He said: "My parents' bones are not cold, you are here thinking about compensation and property, don't be afraid." Did they turn into ghosts and come to you?"

Xiao Yu hid behind his brother in fear. After all, he was only a 14-year-old child. He grew up under the loving care of his parents. He saw the world with such pure eyes. In an instant, fangs grew, as terrifying as an emissary from hell.

In the end, naturally they broke up in a quarrel, the auntie dragged the uncle away angrily, the uncle and the auntie also left afterward, leaving two half-grown children and two fresh corpses cruelly behind, Xiao Ning Looking at their backs that were drifting away, a sneer appeared on his lips.
