He was 36 years old, he transferred 30,000 to his mother, his mother didn't give 2,000 when he was sick, and he lived on his own after he was blocked
Wu Zhihong, only 36 years old, shoulders the responsibilities of equipment maintenance engineer, and his monthly income is basically about 30,000 yuan. His son is only 3 years old, and his wife, Xingrou, is a gentle and considerate teacher at the age of 30.
One day, Wu Zhihong suddenly felt severe pain at work, squatted on the ground, and described the location of the pain indescribably. He was rushed to the hospital, and the doctor looked at him in surprise after the examination: "This is not the first time you have felt pain, has it?"Why haven't I been to the hospital before?”
Wu Zhihong replied with a wry smile: "Oh, I did check it last year, and I said that I had gallstones, and when it hurt, I relied on taking some medicine, but it has never been so intense." ”
The doctor shook his head and sighed, "Alas, you are not a young man anymore, why don't you take care of your body like this?"Your gallbladder is full of stones, so it's strange that it doesn't hurt. ”
Wu Zhihong was taken aback, he didn't expect the situation to be so serious, so he had to contact his family urgently, and the doctor recommended surgery as soon as possible.
Unable to contact Wu Zhihong's family for a while, he had to call his gentle wife Xingrou: Xiaorou, my stomach hurts badly, and the doctor said that I must have gallstone surgery, can you ask for leave to come over?”
After hearing this, Xingrou immediately said, "I'm done with today's class, I'll rush over." ”
After Xingrou rushed to the hospital, she went through the procedures for her husband to be admitted to the hospital, and the doctor arranged for surgery the next morning. While waiting, the doctor hung up a series of medications for Wu Zhihong and recommended surgery tomorrow morning.
After the examination, Wu Zhihong said to Xingrou: "Xiaorou, the operation hasn't started yet, you go home and rest, and come back tomorrow morning." ”
Xingrou responded firmly: "No, I will always be with you, and Lei Lei has my parents to take care of it, no problem." ”
Wu Zhihong held her hand tightly and said with a smile: "Xiaorou, I am really fortunate to have you by my side, otherwise I might have to face all this alone." ”
Xingrou also responded with a smile: "Yes, fate is like this, let me meet you." My parents were against it at first, but now they don't have a problem with it, right?”
Suddenly, Wu Zhihong's mobile phone rang, and he glanced at it, it was his mother, and his expression was a little displeased.
Xingrou took the phone and said, "Mom, what's wrong?".Zhihong is not very convenient to pick up ** now.
An unhappy voice came from the other side: "Xingrou, what's wrong with Zhihong?"Why didn't he pick up the **?”
Xingrou wanted to speak again and again, but his mother didn't seem to give her a chance to speak, and immediately said: "Xingrou, you hurry up and transfer 5,000 yuan over, I have an urgent need here." ”
Xingrou frowned and said, "Mom, Zhihong is hospitalized, and he needs a lot of money to have surgery, and I am planning to talk to you about it, so that you and your two sisters can make up some money." ”
The mother-in-law was surprised and said, "What?".Is he sick?Alas, his uncle's birthday is approaching, and I originally planned to give him a massage chair, but I fell in love with one that asked for more than 4,800, but he asked me to pay for it first. ”
Xingrou responded lightly: "Mom, we still have a mortgage to repay, and we don't have enough money, and the operation fee is still 20,000." You and your sisters can scrape together some money, and then go to WeChat to pay. ”
The mother-in-law said distressedly: "My two sisters and I have no extra money, let alone 20,000, we can't take out 2,000 yuan." ”
Xingrou wanted to speak and stopped, but the other party had already said: "Xingrou, I have an urgent matter here, hang up first, you take care of Zhihong, and I will contact you later." ”
The moment he hung up **, a trace of strangeness flashed in Zhihong's eyes, Xingrou put the phone beside him, and said: "Zhihong, listen to me, if your mother and two sisters can care about you, don't say 20,000, even if they make up 3,000, if you help them in the future, I won't say anything." ”
She added solemnly: "However, if they ignore you this time and don't care about you at all, then you don't have to worry about them anymore." ”
Wu Zhihong nodded: "Xiaorou, I understand, I just don't want to face it." ”
Xingrou smiled and said, "Don't be sad, even if you don't have them, you still have me and the child." ”
In the evening, Xingrou bought some small wontons, only gave Zhihong a few bites, and she ate the rest, and then mocked: "Alas, you are greedy, don't pay attention to your body at all, but don't forget, Lei Lei is only 3 years old." ”
Wu Zhihong smiled: "I know, do your students know that you are so verbose?"”
Xingrou pretended to be angry: "You just know, but you don't want to escape my long-winded fate." ”
The two joked lightly again.
At about ten o'clock in the morning of the next day, Wu Zhihong was pushed into the operating room, and Xingrou and her mother-in-law stood guard at the door.
The mother-in-law asked with concern: "Rourou, does Zhihong's mother know?"What did she say?”
Xingrou replied calmly: "I know, but from last night to now, none of the ** have been called, not a single message has been sent, and his two younger sisters have disappeared." ”
The mother-in-law sighed: "Alas, Zhihong is really a poor child. ”
Xingrou nodded: "Mom, I've already told him, if his mother and sister don't leave him alone this time, don't contact him again in the future." ”
The mother-in-law said worriedly: "Rourou, after all, that's his mother, will he blame you?"Don't be too hasty. ”
Xingrou said to her mother: "Mom, I understand, but I also want him to understand that family affection is mutual, and it is not something that he can expect to return if he pays." ”
Mom nodded: "Well, it's good that you understand it in your heart." ”
Wu Zhihong walked out of the operating room and escorted him to the ward, followed by Xingrou and his mother.
The doctor left after instructing the precautions, and the operation was very successful, and it was expected that he would be discharged after 3 days of hospitalization.
Zhihong looked at Xingrou and said, "Everything is fine, don't worry." ”
Xingrou smiled and asked her mother to go back first and bring some porridge in the evening, and the doctor said that you can eat after exhausting.
After Zhihong was discharged from the hospital and returned home, Xingrou arranged for him to rest for 15 days, not to rush to work, to take care of his injuries, to avoid oral wounds**, which will be more troublesome in the future.
And Xingrou himself needs to go to work, the child also goes to kindergarten, Zhihong lies at home alone, squinting out the window, feeling that he has never had such a leisurely time.
Since the ** of that night, his mother and two younger sisters have not contacted him, although he didn't say anything, and Xingrou didn't mention it, but the disappointment and sadness in his heart can only be experienced by himself.
He picked up his phone, browsed WeChat chat history, and watched his conversation with his mother and sister.
Xingrou once said that her mother called him **, always to ask for money, and when she didn't need money, she would hardly take the initiative to call. The transcript of the conversation between them also confirms this, with a few pleasantries, followed by the financial needs of the mother and sister. Zhihong smiled wryly, as if what he had been looking forward to had never really gotten it, and his mother and sister never seemed to really treat him as a relative.
Zhihong stopped what he was doing, frowned slightly, and then decisively blacklisted them on social platforms. Since he couldn't get a response, he didn't want anything more and let it all end.
Despite feeling a little sad in his heart, Zhihong lay alone on the bed, covering his eyes with a pillow. Tears slid silently into the depths of the pillow.
Zhihong's hometown is in a remote mountain village, and he grew up in the company of a father and grandmother who are not in good health. As a child, he never saw his mother, and people in the village said that his mother left home when he was more than a year old and no longer cared about his life with his father.
When he was 10 years old, his father also passed away, leaving him to live with his grandmother. However, when he was 14 years old, his grandmother also passed away.
At that time, he was in his third year of junior high school and was doing well in his studies, but he knew he couldn't continue his studies.
After my grandmother passed away, the people in the village helped with the funeral. He heard that he had an uncle, but he never came back, and he was not in touch with his grandmother when she died.
There are still a few months left before the college entrance examination, and he decided that he will stop studying after the exam, and in any case, he can at least get a junior high school diploma.
When the teachers at the school learned about his situation, in order to help him, they made him free of charge for food during his stay at the school. But he had to help the kitchen master wash and clean the dishes every day after dinner.
When he came home on the weekend, he could only make do with the little rice left over from the family, and he had no idea what to do in the future.
After the college entrance examination, his grades were very good, but due to his family situation, he did not have the opportunity to enter the key high school in the county. In the village, they have no relatives, and no one else will help him for no reason.
When he got home, he packed up a few clothes and prepared to go out to work alone. At this time, the village party secretary found him and handed him an address and a ** number.
The village party secretary said: "Zhihong, this is a relative of mine, who is engaged in mechanical maintenance. A few days ago, I talked to him about your situation, and he is willing to take you to learn the craft together. There may be no pay at first, but room and board are provided. You go to him, endure some hardships, learn a craft, and have a means of earning a living in the future. ”
Zhihong was ecstatic, after all, for him, it was a blessing to have a place to provide food and lodging, and to learn a craft. This is the best arrangement for him.
He expressed his gratitude to the village party secretary, took 200 yuan, and set out alone on the road to the city to find Master Xue.
Master Xue is retired, he used to be a maintenance engineer in the factory, and after retirement, he opened a small repair shop.
Wu Zhihong moved into the shop, and Master Xue's repair shop was a small courtyard, and he lived in a small room with a small balcony facing the sun.
Master Xue said, "Zhihong, I'll take you to the second-hand market, find a stove, and turn the balcony into a small kitchen, so that you can cook by yourself in the future." ”
Zhihong agreed, for him, all this is new, and he can only try his best to adapt.
The master said: "Zhihong, don't be polite when you come, I know your situation, no problem, study hard." ”
Zhihong nodded: "Master, thank you for taking me in, I will definitely work hard to learn." ”
So, Zhihong had his own cottage, and the master gave him 1,000 yuan a month, enough for him to buy food, cook by himself, and have some surplus.
Every morning, he wakes up early, cleans the repair shop, checks the repaired pumps and motors, and carefully labels them.
Then, he looked through his notes, Xi the knowledge taught by his master, and then carefully pondered the equipment he had practiced.
When Master Xue came, Zhihong began to help again, concentrating on learning the skills taught by Master Xi.
After two years, he has been able to repair some simple pumps, motors and other equipment independently, but due to his low education, a lot of theoretical knowledge cannot keep up.
Under the guidance of his master, he enrolled in a technical school to study Xi mechanics. Although it is not full-time and he only needs to take classes during professional classes, he is very happy.
At the age of 20, he got his college diploma and signed up for the college entrance exam. At the same time, his maintenance skills have become very proficient, and the master praised him for his great talent in this area.
The master began to pay him a salary, at first it was 3,000 yuan per month, but with the continuous improvement of his skills, many equipment and motors were repaired by him, and the master smiled and said: "Zhihong, it seems that I am going to consider giving you some bonuses, according to the number of pieces." ”
He replied with a smile: "No need, master, you can pay your salary, and I have to concentrate more on learning Xi now." ”
However, the master still gave him an extra 500 or 1,000 yuan a month, which made him very happy.
He applied for a bank card and saved everything every month except for living expenses. Despite this, he bought many books on equipment and electromechanics, and Xi it alone until late every night.
In order to improve the learning effect of Xi, he purchased a second-hand computer to find and explain the knowledge points he did not understand and browse a large number of ** tutorials.
After successfully upgrading to a bachelor's degree, he worked hard to study Xi, and his tutor praised: "Zhihong, you are a scholar, but unfortunately you were not admitted to the university at the beginning." ”
Zhihong responded: "Mentor, it's good now." Although I didn't go to university, I was able to learn Xi theory, learn Xi and practice with you every day, which is more valuable than just learning Xi school, and I can still get a salary. ”
The mentor took special care of him, and Zhihong was also sincerely grateful to the mentor, who was the closest person to the mentor.
At the same time, Wu Zhihong is also grateful to the village party secretary, because without him, he may not have met his mentor and got such a good opportunity to learn Xi. Without this opportunity, he might only be able to work as a small worker on the construction site, or even be disliked.
After the age of 20, he had some savings. Every year during the Chinese New Year or Qingming Festival, he goes back to his hometown to visit his grandmother and father, and brings good cigarettes and wine every time.
His old house was dilapidated, and he left 5,000 yuan for the village party secretary, hoping that he could help sort it out simply. After all, this is his roots, and whether he goes back in the future or not, he wants his home to always exist.
At the age of 26, Zhihong obtained his undergraduate diploma and happily invited his mentor and his mentor's wife to enjoy a sumptuous meal.
They chose a self-service hot pot barbecue restaurant with an average of 298 yuan per family. Zhihong looked at the dazzling array of ingredients, and his mood was particularly happy. In fact, over the years, he has hardly eaten hot pot, let alone experienced barbecue.
On the one hand, he was reluctant to spend money, and on the other hand, eating these delicacies alone also made him feel a little lonely.
However, every year before the mentor's birthday, he would invite the mentor and the tutor's wife to have a meal in advance and choose some distinctive restaurants. On his birthday, the mentor will definitely celebrate with the child, so he expresses his heart in advance and thanks the mentor for his care.
The food in front of him made him hesitate a little, and the tutor's wife smiled and said, "Follow me, I know which ones are delicious, which meats are suitable for roasting, and which ones are suitable for hot pot." ”
Zhihong glanced at his mentor's wife gratefully, and suddenly burst into tears. He remembered his mother, whom he had never met, and wondered if she was doing well.
Even though Zhihong has lived in the city for many years, he still feels unfamiliar with the city. However, following the mentor, Zhihong not only learned the knowledge of mechanics, but also learned a lot of skills in getting along with people.
Today, he drives a car and delivers repaired things to the factory, which is his task. Many factories settle accounts once a month, and he is the one in charge of this task.
The master said to Zhihong: "If young people want to live well, they not only need exquisite skills, but also learn to deal with all kinds of people. You're still very young, think more about it. ”
Zhihong listened to his master's advice and began to take the initiative to socialize with people, sometimes inviting people to dinner and making some friends. With the continuous improvement of technology, the master also arranged for him to deal with some tasks that had to be repaired in person, and returned all the costs of his independent maintenance to him.
At the age of 29, Zhihong looked at the balance in his bank card and had accumulated 500,000. He asked the master: "Master, I have 500,000 yuan in my card, can I buy a house with a down payment?"”
The master readily agreed: "Young man, it's not easy to save so much money, it's really good." Zhihong smiled and said, "Master, I have been following you for 15 years, and it is your teaching that has enabled me to achieve today's achievements." ”
The master smiled: "You can go and see it when you have time, although my shop is not big, but the monthly salary is very stable, you should be able to consider taking out a loan." ”
Zhihong successfully bought a house with a down payment, although it is second-hand, but the community environment is very good, and it is not far from the master's house. With a total price of 1.9 million and a down payment of more than 600,000, although he likes the house, the funds are still a little tight.
After understanding the situation, the master said: "Boy, after following me for so many years, since you started to be able to repair some small things independently, I will give you a bonus every month." At first you didn't want it, but then I thought about it, give you a part every month, and another part to help you save. It's all in this card, take it, it was meant to be given to you when you got married. ”
Zhihong was grateful, but held back his tears, he said: "Master, you opened a store to make money, give me so much, didn't you suffer a loss?"”
The master smiled: "Hehe, in fact, I am retired and don't want to be idle at home, so I opened this shop." You do a lot of the hard work in the store, and you deserve to be given this money. Without you, I wouldn't be able to make so much money, and what I earn is the real big head. ”
The master added: "Zhihong, I may open until next year at most, and I will really have to retire at home." I'm 66 years old, and I think I can take your sister around when I stop working. Now that you've bought a house, I can rest easy. ”
He had planned to retire in the factory, but retired early due to some things. When he got home, he got bored, and many people who knew him often asked him for help, so they thought about opening this shop. Now that you're getting old, it's time to rest.
Zhihong was in a complicated mood, and after the master's repair shop closed, he felt at a loss and at a loss.
The master said to him: "Zhihong, let's take care of the house first, and then we will discuss your future, and I will think more about you." ”
Zhihong quickly bought a second-hand house and quickly moved in. Although it is a second-hand house, the previous owner hardly lived in it, which made Zhihong deeply satisfied.
With his own home, he felt that he had found a place to establish himself in the city and that life was gradually getting better. At the same time, he befriends Xingrou, who is the teacher of his master's granddaughter. Zhihong aroused Xingrou's suspicion when he helped the master pick up the child, as if he was a **.
Through the ** confirmation with the master, Xingrou agreed to have Zhihong pick up the child, and apologized to him afterwards. After the two exchanged WeChat, they began to gradually build a friendship.
30-year-old Zhihong, with the closure of the master's shop, the master originally wanted him to take over, but he decided to try to work, get in touch with more advanced equipment, and obtain a professional maintenance engineer certificate. On the recommendation of his master, he joined a company and became a maintenance technician, with an initial salary of only 11,000.
It was at this time that he received a strange **, a woman claiming to be his mother. His mother told him about the family's financial situation and apologized for the decision. Zhihong's complicated mood is indescribable, he wants to understand his mother, but also has some resentment. Mom revealed that she had remarried and had two younger sisters, both of whom were married.
Mom added his WeChat and sent some **. They live in a county not far from their hometown, and they are still relatively far away from Zhihong.
After contacting his mother, Zhihong also contacted the village party secretary to confirm his mother's identity. Although he didn't care much about his mother, he was still grateful in his heart, after all, she was his only relative, making him feel no longer lonely.
During a chat, his mother and sister frequently borrowed money from him for various reasons after learning that he worked for a large company and his salary was not low.
At this time, Zhihong had already fallen in love with Xingrou, but in the face of her family's opposition, he felt a lot of pressure. After Xingrou learned about the situation of him and his mother, she also expressed a not very supportive attitude: "Zhihong, your salary is barely enough to pay off the mortgage, and now your mother and sister still have so much every month, how can you live by yourself?"”
After she finished speaking, she fell silent, and then continued: "This month, when we were ** in the evening, I noticed that you eat light white water, at most some green vegetables, is there something wrong with the economy?".”
Zhihong responded: "Xiaorou, don't be angry, this time it's because my mother is sick and needs to pay 30,000 yuan suddenly, except for the mortgage that has not yet been paid off, the rest of the money has been scraped up." ”
Xingrou took a deep breath: "Zhihong, I know it's for your mother, but have you ever seen her get sick with your own eyes?"Did she show you the medical records?It's not good to listen to what they say and believe it all. ”
He said to Xingrou: "Xiaorou, don't worry, I will definitely not do this again in the future." You know, I never saw my mom when I was a kid, and even though she didn't raise me, I just couldn't help but want to be cared for by her. ”
Xingrou sighed and didn't say anything more. Later, at Xingrou's insistence, her parents finally agreed, and the two got married.
However, when they got married, neither his mother nor his sisters attended, and only gave him a red envelope of 200 yuan to show the blessings of the three of them.
He felt a little embarrassed, but he was very grateful that the master and his wife had become his new family. Soon after his marriage, due to his excellent skills, his salary also rose to 20,000.
Xingrou soon became pregnant, and the master and the master were very happy, often came to visit her at home, and bought a lot of supplies for the child.
However, every time my mother called, she always asked for money, whether it was 1000 or 3000, or even 10000 at a time.
The same goes for my mom and two younger sisters, who always need his financial support. Xingrou was very dissatisfied, but seeing his embarrassed appearance, she still chose to remain silent.
While he went home to take care of Xingrou, he worked hard to research, consult new information, and constantly improve himself. After the birth of his son, his mother-in-law came to take care of him at home, and although his parents-in-law did not agree at first, they accepted him when they saw that he treated Xingrou sincerely.
When the mother knew that his child was born, she simply said, "Zhihong, congratulations." Originally, we should have given the child a gift, but you know our situation, there is really nothing you can do, you should bear more. ”
When his son was one year old, he officially became a maintenance engineer, and his salary rose to 30,000. When the master found out, he encouraged him and said: "Your kid has a future, work hard in the future, and it will be better when he is promoted to the head of the maintenance department." ”
In the past few years, the master and his wife have always been very good to him, he takes the children to visit them when he has time, and even stays by the bedside to take care of them when they are hospitalized.
He feels that compared with his mother and sister, the master and the master are the real relatives. But he can't be ruthless, and when they need money, he will still be reluctant to refuse.
Thinking of this, Zhihong smiled bitterly. This time he was completely dead. Since they don't treat him as a relative, don't force him. Everyone is fine.
He decided to be more filial to his master and his wife, who were the ones who really cared about him and his relatives.
Xingrou picked up her son, and Zhihong was already ready for dinner. Xingrou glared at him: "Didn't you tell you to have a good rest?"Why are you busy cooking again?”
Zhihong replied with a smile: "Hehe, it's no problem to cook, I just have time today, I can cook something delicious for you and your son." ”
Xingrou looked at the white fish soup and tender beef on the table, and her mood became good.
Zhihong watched their mother and son eat, thinking to himself that they were the ones who really accompanied him. The rest was no longer extravagant, and he decided to live his life well.
Finally, I would like to say: because of the lack of it, we will especially desire to have. But there are some things, only by learning to look down on them, can you really stop bothering yourself.
As Mr. Yang Jiang said: "Origin, you have no right to choose;Marriage, sometimes it really can only be done by luck. ”
The key to living each day well is to have the ability to adjust your emotions.
If you have the love of your parents and the company of your loved ones, cherish them and don't deliberately create contradictions.
If the family affection is weak and you encounter unsatisfactory things, then live for yourself.
Life is already so bitter that there is no need for us to let ourselves be plunged into endless troubles.
Live your life well and cherish the people who truly love you, which is the best responsibility for yourself.
