Wanqing's home is located in a small village behind a vegetable field. It is a tile-roofed house covering an area of about 40 square meters. For today's rural people, it is not considered poor.
It can be seen that Wanqing's father must have been a hardworking man when he was alive.
Zheng Bajin asked a little strangely: "How did your father die? Was he sick?"
"No, he was hit and killed by a farm vehicle when he was picking vegetables to sell on the street." Wanqing said, her eye circles suddenly turned red.
Zheng Bajin regretted mentioning her sad story, which was like adding a pinch of salt to the newly healed wound.
"Oh, everything will be fine. Don't be sad about the past. I think your father also wants you to live happily every day." Zheng Bajin was busy changing the topic, "Let's go see your mother. !”
Tang Zhengwen had tied the carriage to a pear tree and did not forget to put a fodder cup on the horse.
Wanqing nodded, opened the door, and called her mother.
No one answered, and Zheng Bajin's heart sank. Could it be that he was late?
He rushed in. The light inside was very dark and he couldn't see clearly. Wanqing turned on the light and saw a person lying on a broken sofa.
Wanqing rushed over and called out for her mother.
The woman opened her eyes listlessly and wanted to get up, but her body only moved once and began to shake violently, as if shaking.
Wanqing had no idea and wanted to help her up.
Zheng Bajin said: "Don't move, she should be hungry."
Wanqing looked at Zheng Bajin in disbelief and said, "No way, it's impossible to do this even if you're hungry."
"Believe me, she's fine. Let's get a glass of water." Zheng Bajin said, tearing open the biscuit in his hand, taking out some, putting it in the glass of water that Wanqing poured, and said, "Feed her first. Eat a little, and if that doesn’t work, send him to the hospital.”
Wanqing was extremely sad, knowing that her mother was reluctant to eat, which was why she was like this. She chose to believe Zheng Bajin, and hurriedly found a spoon, smashed the biscuits into something like porridge, raised her mother's head, and fed her mother carefully.
Tang Zhengwen also entered the room. Seeing all this, he looked at Zheng Bajin with some confusion and asked softly: "Why, it's so serious. Do you need to send him to the hospital?"
Zheng Bajin pulled him, and the two of them walked out of the door and said softly: "No, give her something to eat first. She must be hungry and her blood sugar is low. If we didn't come back in time, her life would really be in danger. "
Tang Zhengwen didn't know about hypoglycemia, but he knew that sugar was in short supply now.
No, people are simply reluctant to buy it.
The woman who ate half a cookie felt much better. She no longer sweated on her face and her body wasn't shaking as much as before.
Wanqing shouted happily: "Brother, mom is much better."
Tang Zhengwen glanced at Zheng Bajin and said softly: "You two are so quick that you can't tell whether it's her mother or your mother?"
"You're talking nonsense. She's still a little girl, so I won't make random decisions. Besides, it's just a word I omitted in desperation." With that said, Zheng Bajin entered the room, took one look, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "It is indeed hypoglycemia. It would be better if there was sugar."
At this time, the woman gained a little strength. Seeing that her daughter suddenly brought two grown men, she became a little panicked, thinking that she had done something shameful outside.
His face suddenly darkened, and he looked at Zheng Bajin with a somewhat evil look in his eyes. He steeled himself and said, "Don't you want to take advantage of my daughter? She is my life!"
Wanqing was stunned and glanced at Zheng Bajin. She didn't know how to explain? All he said was: "Mom!"
"No, I'm Wanqing's... classmate." Zheng Bajin said hurriedly, "I heard about her family situation, so I came over to take a look. Don't think too much and have a good rest."
Tang Zhengwen and Wanqing didn't know why he pretended to be his classmate, and looked at him suspiciously.
Seeing that Wanqing's mother's expression became friendlier, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief and stopped exposing Zheng Bajin's lies.
Wanqing's mother also breathed a sigh of relief and took a look at Zheng Bagin. She saw that he didn't look like a second-rate man, let alone a dandy. He was a simple rural person.
As long as they are classmates, what she is most worried about is that if Wanqing associates with some people in society, her future will be ruined, and she may even regret her mistakes forever.
Then, she became a little worried, looked at Wanqing and said, "Are you in love? I tell you, you are still young and can't act recklessly."
"Mom! What did you say?" Wanqing's face turned red and she looked at her reproachfully, "Don't think so wildly."
"Yes, Auntie, you are too worried. Wanqing is very well-behaved in school. She is embarrassed to say a word to boys. She must have been well-educated since childhood." Zheng Bajin began to change the topic and said, "By the way, I heard that you grow cabbage at home, so I brought this old Tang here to buy it, so that in the future, I don’t have to work hard to pick it up and sell it in the city."
Tang Zhengwen nodded and glanced at Zheng Bajin and Wanqing. He felt that they were about the same age. Even he believed that they were classmates.
"Oh, this child has a hard life. Her father has died since she was a child. She is what I am most worried about. I am afraid that she will be a bad learner and that she will be harmed." Wan Qingniang finally felt relieved and her spirits improved a lot, and she began to talk. Sad past events came up.
Although Zheng Bajin already knew how Wanqing's father died, he felt a little uncomfortable when he heard that the other party only gave him 2,000 yuan for burial time!
As a victim, it is certainly unacceptable that two thousand yuan can change a life. However, as a driver of an agricultural vehicle, two thousand yuan is still money, and any more will mean running away.
Anyway, money was very tight at that time, and the drivers did not have a driver's license, and some did not even have an ID card, so they could not be caught if they ran away.
Zheng Bajin could only sympathize and said: "Auntie, please forgive me. You can't harm your body. You still have to eat what you should eat. Otherwise, you will wear down your body and you will become hypoglycemic. Wanqing graduates in the second half of the year, and I feel very guilty when I go to collect my salary."
Wanqing nodded hurriedly, feeling heartbroken!
Of course she understands that hypoglycemia does not occur in a day or two, but is caused by long-term irregular life. Moreover, once it occurs, it is difficult to cure.
After listening to Zheng Bajin's words and seeing her daughter's painful expression, Wan Qingniang was also heartbroken. She nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll be fine. I have to keep my body and wait for Wanqing to enjoy the blessings after she divides the work. "
Zheng Bajin nodded and said: "Auntie, you are right to think so. By the way, we plan to have dinner at your house, and I will buy some food later."
"How can this be done?" Wan Qingniang said, trying to hold herself up and look for money, but Zheng Bajin persuaded her to stop.
Tang Zhengwen also said: "Just take a rest, Lao... Laoba, you don't have to go shopping for groceries, I'll just go."
He originally wanted to say boss, but suddenly he remembered that Zheng Bajin was now a student and the character of Wanqing's classmate. He couldn't help but changed his name to Lao Ba.
Zheng Bajin was not polite and said: "Well, Old Tang is a real person and very enthusiastic, so it is appropriate to let him buy it."
"Then, pull me up. I have money here." Of course, Wan Qingniang doesn't want others to pay for her. No matter how poor she is, she must have hospitality skills.
"No, no, if Old Tang is rich, let him buy it. By the way, Old Tang, get a fish to supplement Auntie's food."
Old Tang was stunned for a moment and thought to himself, this is because you want to pick up someone else's daughter, and you keep calling her an aunt, why do you want me to pay?
However, he didn't say anything, but walked out and went to the street to buy groceries.
"What, how can this be so embarrassing?" Wan Qingniang said awkwardly.
