Xia Wu came home and opened the door, only to find that the house was pitch black. Normally, at this time, her father would watch TV in the living room, talking about watching TV, but Xia Wu knew that he was waiting for other members of the family to come home.
Perhaps it was because I was too tired and went to bed early, Xia Wu thought.
Upstairs, Xia Sang and Xia Xin's room were all dark. Xia Wu was even more suspicious. She went back to her room to take a bath, and picked up the mobile phone on the bed. She didn't bring it when she went out just now. It seemed that there were several missed calls. .
Xia Sang called two, Xia Xin called three, and Dad also called one.
The family should be used to her occasionally coming home late, why are they so eager to find her?
Having never encountered such a situation before, Xia Wu vaguely had some bad premonition while holding the phone.
Quickly dial Xia Xin, Xia Xin picks up right away, with a rare anxious tone, "Second Sister, where are you?"
"I'm at home, Xia Xin, what's the matter? Why is there no one at home."
"Second sister, come to the central hospital soon, something serious happened at home."
"Ah? What?" Xia Wu was so startled that her heart almost jumped out, "What happened?"
"The furniture factory is on fire, and the factory and warehouse are all gone. My mother fainted from anxiety and is now hanging water in the emergency room." Xia Xin was already sobbing in a low voice.
After hanging up the phone, Xia Wu's hands and feet were cold, and she picked up the key and ran out the door.
No matter what the season is, late nights in the city always make people feel cold. Xia Wu hugged her shoulders in the car and thought, her career is her mother¡¯s life. The furniture factory she has painstakingly managed for more than ten years is the heart of her career. How can you bear such a blow?
All the way to the emergency room of the hospital, in the corridor next to the ward, Xia Sang leaned against the wall with a dull expression, Xia Xin looked at her from a distance with tears in her eyes, Xia Wu's mouth trembled slightly, "Is mom okay?"
Xia Xin pointed to the inside of the ward, her eyes were red, "It's okay, the doctor said she was stimulated, just wake up. It's just our factory is gone, it's all burnt out, and our family is going bankrupt woohoo Woohoo."
As Xia Xin spoke, she slid down and hugged her head and began to cry.
"Bankruptcy" Xia Wu murmured and repeated this unfamiliar word unconsciously. At this moment, her spine was shivering, her mind was blank, and she couldn't figure it out at all.
"Mom borrowed 50 million yuan from the bank to buy land, which was mortgaged by the furniture factory. Mom asked someone to evaluate it. The movable and real properties in the factory are worth about 60 million yuan. Now, except for the land, everything has been reduced to ashes." Xia Xia Sang spoke quietly behind Xia Wu, looking up at the white roof of the hospital like a dead fish, her voice was cold and silent.
"Sister, will the insurance company pay us some?" Xia Xin raised her eyes and asked in a daze, the red and swollen eyes were shining with hope.
Xia Wu also looked at Xia Sang with hopeful eyes, eager to hear some good news.
Xia Sang leaned against the wall to maintain a motionless posture, smiled wryly, and her eyes were full of despair, "Our family is so unlucky, the insurance expires this month, and my mother is too busy this month to take care of it. problem occurs."
"This time, it is God who does not bless our family."
As Xia Sang spoke, a huge tear overflowed from her eyes.
Xia Wu moved her dry lips, but in the end she couldn't utter a word. She didn't know anything about these things at home. Only now did she realize what an irresponsible family member she was. As a child, she not only failed to share the worries of her parents To relieve her worries, she didn't even take the initiative to understand at least. Every day, she only cares about her own affairs. She is really an asshole.
Xia Wu realized weakly how selfish she was.
The news of a fire in a large furniture factory on the outskirts of the city made it onto the city's morning news. The fire continued to burn for three hours. Under the action of the wind, tens of millions of inventories on the edge of the factory were also burned to dryness. Jing, in the camera, Xia Wu's father was silent for a long time facing the messy factory left after the fire and the reporters who kept questioning him.
At this moment, Yan Ji was putting a steamed egg into Lang Lang's bowl. He looked up and glanced at the TV camera expressionlessly, and saw a middle-aged man with a sad face dodging the camera. Behind him, only There was an empty frame, and there was still smoke coming from a certain corner. The fire was like a hungry beast with a big appetite, and it had swallowed everything.
Yan Ji's mother stared at the TV screen, clutching her chest in surprise, "Why did it burn like this? Don't lose too much."
Yan Ji glanced at the TV camera expressionlessly, "The insurance company should pay a little."
Then he lowered his head and looked at the pda in his hand intently.??
For the Yan family, this morning was spent peacefully amidst the sound of news and birdsong.
And this morning, for the Xia family, was a nightmare that they hoped they would never wake up from.
But life is so inescapable. When the morning light poked its head out, the nightmare woke up, and they had nothing at this time.
Xia Wu's mother regained her composure after waking up. She sat quietly on the head of the bed, her pale face seemed to have aged ten years overnight. Fragile, with vulnerable eyes.
Three hours can destroy fifteen years of hard work, and there seems to be no other reasonable explanation except God's blessing.
Xia Wu walked over and held her mother's cold water. The mother and daughter were relatively speechless, only the tears in their eyes showed the same despair deep in the mother and daughter's heart.
Mother Xin Xin looked at the three children at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed who were holding back their tears. The young people in their twenties, with their inexperienced faces still full of childishness. Muttering, "Mom, I'm sorry for you, I wanted to make your life better, but I didn't expect to drag you down instead"
"Mom what nonsense are you talking about," Xia Sang choked up, turned her back and wiped away her tears, her tone was still sour, "What are you talking about, isn't it just that you have no money? The most important thing is being together as a family."
Xia Wu clenched the hands of some mothers, and hurriedly cried, "Mom, sister is right, we don't care, as long as you are well."
Xia Xin nodded desperately to the side, with tears in her eyes.
Xia Wu's father stood at the door like an old tree stump, looking at his wife and children inside with red eyes, finally lowered his head and wiped away the old tears on his face. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
