After dinner and a simple wash, Lu Chenxu came to the study on the first floor.
He knew that his father had a habit of reading in the study for an hour before going to bed. Because he had something on his mind, he walked in without pushing the door.
Father Lu saw that he hurriedly stuffed the photo in his hand into the book.
Then she pretended to be calm and asked, "It's so late, Chen Xu, what's the matter?"
Lu Chenxu looked suspiciously at the book in his father's hand, and immediately reached out to grab it.
But he was stopped by Father Lu.
He stared into Father Lu's eyes, and said in a calm voice, "I met Li Qiuhe in Daoxiang Village this time."
Sure enough, Father Lu's face showed a trace of panic: "She, she¡ª"
"Who is she?" Lu Chenxu asked.
He didn't fully believe Li Qiuhe's words. She should indeed have a terminal illness, but just because this father gave her such a precious diamond ring as a souvenir, and that diamond ring was exactly the same as the one given to his mother, it doesn't make sense at all!
"She, she was a classmate of mine in high school." Father Lu was a little guilty and didn't dare to look at his son's face.
Lu Chenxu silently took out the diamond ring and put it in front of Father Lu: "Xiao Su asked me to return this to you. Who is Xiao Su? Dad, you should know!"
Father Lu looked shocked: "You, you know everything?"
"I don't know anything, Dad, I want to hear from you." After finishing speaking, he moved a chair and sat down in front of his father.
Seeing that he couldn't hide anything from his son, Father Lu sighed helplessly, and took out the photo he had just hidden in the book.
"She, she is my first love."
"At that time, we were all studying in No. 1 Middle School in Huaze County. She was recognized as the school beauty of the school. She was good at studying and a good person. Many boys secretly liked her behind their backs."
"In the summer vacation of the second year of high school, I went to my grandmother's house in Daoxiang Village. She was accidentally bitten by a water snake on her leg while washing clothes by the river. I happened to pass by and helped her suck out the poisonous blood from the wound in time, and then sent her to the hospital in the town. .¡±
"Then, we gradually became acquainted with each other, and later became lovers." Lu's father raised his head and kept his eyes on Van Gogh's "Harvest Season" on the wall opposite the desk, as if he had fallen into some kind of beauty. memories.
Lu Chenxu had never seen this kind of expression on his father's face, it looked like happiness, but it was a bit bitter.
"We made an appointment to be admitted to the best university in China, to live hard, to go abroad, to the hometown of Van Gogh. We are full of fantasies about our future life."
"However, in the third year of high school, her only younger brother got into a group fight with others and was accidentally injured. After being sent to the hospital, she was unconscious. Her mother passed out immediately when she heard the news. After waking up, her mind became a little abnormal gone."
"The family's life suddenly became chaotic. At that time, rural people had no source of income. His younger brother faced huge medical expenses every day. The other party also accused her younger brother of doing it first."
"Under such circumstances, she performed abnormally in the college entrance examination. Then, she broke up with me and went home to marry. Because the other party gave their family a lot of gifts and promised to help find a doctor for her brother."
"Later, I went to Yucheng to go to college. I met your mother in my junior year and never asked about her again. When your mother and I were getting married, we went to Daoxiang Village. At that time, I heard Said her brother had died. She had borne a son."
"Later, until you were ten years old, when our factory started to make money, once, I went to that kind of place to discuss business with people, and I met her being bullied by five or six men. I was so angry that I fought with those people. She got up and threatened to call the police, which saved her."
There was a trace of grief and indignation on Lu's father's face, as if he was very reluctant to recall the past.
"At that time, I found out that her child died because of illness, and her husband became bad after he became rich, and he also got into gambling. In the end, he mortgaged her to those creditors in a frenzy. I asked someone to help her He taught that man a lesson and forced him to divorce her. He gave her some money and sent her back to Daoxiang Village."
"Later, we never met again." After saying this, Father Lu seemed to have exhausted all his strength, leaning back on the chair behind him wearily.
After being silent for a moment, Lu Chenxu asked softly: "What about this diamond ring! Have you ever thought about how sad my mother will be if she finds out!"
"Chenxu, that's what I owe her. On the day we broke up, she cried and begged me to ask her father to give me a gift of 1,000 yuan to help her brother get medical treatment. This way she wouldn't have toAfter marrying that man, she only wants to marry me in her life. "
"One thousand yuan was considered a huge sum of money in the countryside at that time. At that time, your grandma actually had money in her hands, but I didn't dare to ask my family for it. I was too cowardly."
"If I had been braver then, she wouldn't have married that bastard, and she wouldn't have had such a miserable life. All of this was caused by me. I cowardly and cruelly refused her when she needed help the most. She. Over the years, I have been blaming myself in my heart. "
"A few days ago, I met her by chance in Daoxiang Village, and only then did I know that she had cancer, and there were only less than two months left. In order to compensate her, and to stop regretting myself, I specially asked someone to customize it. A diamond ring."
After finishing speaking, Father Lu opened his eyes and looked at his son: "Chen Xu, do you look down on Dad!"
Lu Chenxu looked at his father, it seemed that what Li Qiuhe said was true, Xiao Su was not his own sister.
"Dad, I hope you will cherish my mother in the future! I will help you deal with Xiao Su's matter."
"You?" Father Lu was a little surprised.
"Yes, I have promised her mother that I will find her a job in Yucheng, so that she can gain a foothold in Yucheng and live on."
After finishing speaking, he looked at the clock on the wall: "It's getting late, go to bed early!"
When he opened the door to go out, Father Lu whispered behind him, "Thank you, son!"
Lu Chenxu paused for a moment, walked out of the study without looking back.
Just as she was about to go up to the second floor, she suddenly saw Mother Lu coming from the kitchen with a glass of water.
"Mom, you haven't slept yet?" He was a little surprised.
Mother Lu's expression was a bit unnatural: "I'm a little thirsty, go get a glass of water to drink, how about you, why didn't you sleep?"
"I have something to discuss with Dad! Your blood pressure is a little high, go to bed early!" After carefully instructing his mother, Lu Chenxu was going to go upstairs to sleep.
However, Lu's mother stopped him from behind: "Chen Xu, I suddenly remembered something."
"what's up?"
"That's right, I looked at Zhao Fen's ID a few days ago, and she seems to be from Mengshan County, Qingcheng."
"Really?" Lu Chenxu was a little surprised. Li Muta's family is also from Mengshan County, Qingcheng. What a coincidence?
"I shouldn't remember wrongly, don't worry, I will find time to ask her tomorrow to see if she has heard of Zhao Yun." When Lu Chenxu asked, Mother Lu was a little uncertain, scratching her head and said.
"Mom, be careful when you speak, don't reveal that we are looking for a child. I am afraid that if it gets out, some people will take the opportunity to make trouble, which is not good for the child."
After what happened in Daoxiang Village, he felt that some people were too greedy and terrible by nature. In order to protect children, the fewer people who know, the better. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
