He didn't say anything even though I tried to persuade him sincerely, so I could only continue to persuade him patiently.
“You%……&%……&%……&￥%%￥#￥##%*（）……&*&…………*…………%…%￥##%￥# ￥…………￥#……#”
I was foaming at the mouth when I said this, but no matter how I asked, he wouldn't speak and just cried.
In the end, I was really speechless. Seeing that he was angry, I raised my hand and gave him a big mouthful.
"You die, go ahead and jump into the river now. I'm too lazy to save you, a coward and a loser. Your parents brought you into the world, and you have to be filial. If you die, how sad will they be? Will you be there in the future? I am too embarrassed to go see them."
But after saying that, I regretted it, because I remembered the elder brother who also wanted to die when I was in Nanjing.
If the guy in front of me told me that his parents were gone, his wife ran away with the money, the child was not his, the house was forfeited, he still owed a lot of famine, and he had just been diagnosed with terminal liver cancer, how fucking similar would it be? It’s also quite embarrassing…
At this moment, his stomach suddenly growled twice.
I glanced at him and asked: "Are you hungry? It's better not to die first. I'll treat you to a meal. Even if you die, you can't go on the road hungry, right?"
I don’t know if he really wanted to eat or if he was just thinking about it, but as soon as I finished my words, he started talking.
"Brother, I'm useless. My dad is waiting for rescue in the hospital, but I can't get a dime out..."
I said to him: "If you don't have money, at least you still have people. If you jump, your father will have no hope at all. Tell me, after you jump, what help can you do to your father? In addition to What’s the use of proving that you’re a coward who only knows how to run away?”
I was not polite at all and scolded him until he burst into tears.
"Yes...I am useless, I am a coward, but maybe only my death can give him a chance to live..."
This statement surprised me. What does his death have to do with his father’s survival?
"Stop crying now and explain clearly what's going on. Maybe I can help you. Even if I can't... you can at least express the pain in your heart and make yourself happy."
My tone softened, and he looked up at me and wiped his tears.
"Brother, thank you for saving me and being willing to listen to my nagging. Maybe you are the only person in this world who doesn't dislike me at this time..."
The man said it pitifully, and then started to talk to me in a ramble.
He said that he actually didn't have to be so miserable, because in the eyes of most people, he had a decent job and although he didn't earn much, he was still in a well-reputed company.
But in the eyes of relatives and friends, he is an absolute waste.
Because the unit where he works has poor performance, after deducting five insurances and one housing fund, he only has more than a thousand left, sometimes even less than a thousand.
He had also thought about quitting his job, changing jobs, or starting some business, but he was in the technical field, knew nothing about other industries, and had no business acumen. He once tried to set up a stall, but ended up losing all the money he had left at home. .
As for his wife, she works as a clerk in a private company, earning a monthly salary of 1,800 yuan, no more, no less. The two of them can barely make ends meet together.
For this reason, his wife also suffered the same injustice as him. She often couldn't hold her head high in front of relatives and friends. When he visited during the holidays, his wife's relatives didn't want to see him. They said that he was a grown man who didn't make as much as his wife, and they were used to sarcasm and sarcasm. .
Moreover, he has a daughter who has just started school.
In short, money is needed everywhere in life.
He has always lived a cautious life and spent every penny he earned. He could only go out to a restaurant with his wife and children on the day he was paid every month.
His wife is often irritated at home, scolding him at every turn, and bragging for him outside. For example, a few days ago, when the family had a deposit of 3,000 yuan, his wife told his parents that the family had 30,000 yuan.
Unfortunately, his mother-in-law is a stingy person. Every time she hears that he has saved money, she tries to find ways to get him to spend some of it, but he can only knock out his teeth and swallow it. He would rather find a way on his own than to Make things difficult for your wife.
After hearing this, I roughly understood his situation. In fact, this person is not very miserable. What he said is, isn't this the living situation of most people now?
Living a cautious life, spending a penny in half, and loving your wife and children is a true portrayal of some men.
He sighed deeply and continued to tell me.
He said that this kind of life could have been maintained, but just a few days ago, his father-in-law suddenly suffered from cerebral infarction and was hospitalized, which cost tens of thousands.
His mother-in-law called him and said that the family had no money for medical treatment and asked him to pay 30,000 yuan.
This thirty thousand yuan was exactly the amount that his wife had bragged about for him last time.
But where does he have 30,000 yuan?
He could only bite the bullet and borrow money from everywhere, and finally managed to collect 20,000 yuan. He was still short of 10,000 yuan and couldn't borrow it, so he had to borrow it from his father.
But my father didn't have any money, and he usually looked down on him. When he heard that he had to collect 30,000 yuan to give to his mother-in-law for the sake of his wife's face, he became very angry. After scolding him, he suddenly committed a crime. I had a myocardial infarction and was hospitalized.
He was sent to the hospital and was rescued, but the doctor said that the old man needed a stent for his heart and that he had to pay 20,000 yuan first and then talk later.
It's true that misfortunes never come singly. Two old men were hospitalized one after another, one with 30,000 yuan and the other with 20,000 yuan.
He had no choice but to give his father the 20,000 yuan he had to pay for a heart stent.
But the mother-in-law on the other side is not relenting, saying that I only have one daughter in my family, and you are the only son-in-law. If you have money to take care of your father, why don't you take care of your father-in-law?
This is so confusing. I only have one share of money. Who should I save?
He couldn't continue talking at this point and just kept wiping away tears.
I wondered and asked: "I don't quite understand. Since two old men want money for surgery to save their lives, what's the use of committing suicide? You go out and find a way to borrow money. Do you have money after you die?"
He sighed: "I borrowed it, but I really can't borrow it. My relatives and friends all know that I have no money, and they are afraid that I can't pay it back. My wife also scolded me because I wanted to give my father the money for the brace first. My wife said that unless I die, she will use the money to save my father first, otherwise she must save her father first..."
I was speechless and sad when I heard this. This elder brother looked like he was in his early thirties. How could he have such a hard time?
Besides, he is too naive. If he commits suicide, can his wife really take the money to save his father first?
That was just an angry remark.
Of course, I also know that this eldest brother is actually angry. At the same time, he really has no other choice and is forced to not want to live anymore.
Therefore, some people who want to commit suicide may not necessarily have a miserable life. They may just be living in a state of walking on thin ice, maintaining it on the surface, but in fact every step is difficult and tiring.
The sudden illness of the two old men was just the straw that broke the camel's back.
Faced with this situation, what should I do to help him?
