Chapter 218 Life is unpredictable, the big intestine contains the small intestine [3000]

This sentence is not an insult.

it is true.

The call just now was from my eldest cousin Lu Youren, who called using the village committee’s red landline.

Only two things were said on the phone.

His wife gave birth to a big fat boy weighing seven kilograms.

However, before Lu Yang could say congratulations.

Next, the second thing.

His father died, and Uncle Lu Yang died.

On the same day, he had just held the big fat boy in his arms, and had no time to bring his wife and son back from the hospital to see his father.

Someone from the village came and found him in the hospital, bringing him the bad news.

His father was so happy for several days that he couldn't stop smiling because his eldest daughter-in-law was going to give him a grandson. Even his emphysema, an old stubborn disease that required him to stay in bed for a long time to recuperate in previous years, seemed to have gotten better and he no longer coughed as much as before.

However, extreme joy brings sorrow.

Just this morning in the early hours, Lu Yang's sister-in-law Taozi suddenly felt a stomachache. Lu Youren was worried that his wife might be giving birth, so he ran back to the old house and knocked on the door to wake up his mother.

When his mother came, she lifted the quilt and reached inside.

Suddenly I touched a lot of sticky and slippery things.

"Oh, it's true. The amniotic fluid has broken. My eldest grandson can't stay in there any longer. He needs to come out. Hurry up, hurry up, take him to the hospital. Son, you have a car, let's go to the hospital in town."

My aunt was also panicked.

Logically speaking, rural women are not that precious. Even though it has been ten years since the reform and opening up, there are still many pregnant women in rural areas who choose to give birth at home. Some even give birth in the morning and go to work in the fields in the afternoon.

Of course, this is just a last resort. It doesn't mean that women in this era are made of iron. There are many women who have difficulty giving birth to sons, resulting in two deaths at the same time. There are also many women who have heavy bleeding during childbirth, where the son survives but the mother dies. There are also many women who have no time to recuperate after giving birth and suffer from lifelong illnesses.

In the past, in Shanghuai Village, at least several such tragedies occurred almost every few years.

Especially with the first child, extra care is required.

So it was after the reform and opening up that gradually, families with better financial conditions, who were worried about their eldest grandson not being able to give birth and who were more concerned about their daughters-in-law, gritted their teeth, thought of ways, and sent their daughters-in-law to the hospital to give birth.

The Lu family didn’t have the conditions to do so before.

But since last year, the lives of several brothers who are close to Lu Yang, their cousin, have been getting better and better, right?
Lu Youren now has a wife, a son is about to be born, a new house has been built, and he has a stable job.

He has a dozen truck driver apprentices under him.

He doesn't have to worry about the factory's truck fleet at all.

In order to safely hold her eldest grandson, my aunt-in-law did not plan to save money for him.

Lu Youren disagreed. He yelled while holding his wife in his arms, saying, "No, my cousin said that it's better to go to the big hospital in the county to give birth to a son. It's better to go to the health hospital in the town than to stay in the village and find a midwife. Anyway, if it's a difficult birth, they are helpless and they can't do anything. They can't do anything. Caesarean section is a must, and if there is a heavy bleeding, you can only wait to die. My cousin said that the health hospital in the town doesn't have a blood bank, and in the end you have to ask for help from the big hospital in the county. Since we have a car, we might as well take Taozi to the county hospital directly. Mom and dad, don't worry about it."

It might also be because Lu Yang, when chatting with his eldest cousin, often talked about all aspects of women giving birth and possible accidents, and reminded him of what things to pay attention to.

He actually wrote it all down.

Look, at the critical moment, my cousin spoke whether he opened his mouth or closed his mouth. The key point is that this cousin is so promising.

Then you have to listen!

The eldest aunt's wife is a person without her own opinion. She listens to her eldest uncle at home. When she goes out, she listens to her eldest son. Now she is in the new house of her eldest son, so she listens to him. The eldest son says he wants to take his wife to the county hospital to give birth, so they go to the county hospital to give birth.

"Okay, then I'll go with you. Otherwise, how can a grown man like you serve a woman?"

"Wait a minute, I'll go back and tell the old man."

After saying that, he ran towards the old house.

After telling the situation to Lu Yang's uncle who had already been awakened by the noise, he also told the two younger ones, the seventh and eighth children, who had been awakened by the noise, that there was no time to prepare food for them this morning. He asked them to go to the factory after they got up and ask their third brother who lived in the factory for food, and bring some back for their old man, and then hurry up and go to school.

As soon as the front heel finished speaking, the back heel had already walked out the door.

Over there, in front of the new house, Lu Youren had already rolled up his wife and the quilt together, carried them onto the big truck, and ran back to the house quickly, taking out a large cloth bag full of things needed for his son, such as baby clothes, diapers, a bottle for drinking water, his wife's washbasin, and a towel for wiping the body. He climbed into the cab, honked the horn, and urged his mother impatiently.

And so, two hours passed.

After getting up, the seventh and eighth brothers listened to their mother and went to the factory to ask their third brother Lu Youyi for food, and also brought some back for their old man.

Then they all went to school.

Lu Yang's uncle was the only one left at home. After waiting for a long time, no one came back to report the good news. Finally, he could not bear it any longer and got up and walked a few steps. After trying his luck, he felt that his body had recovered well recently, so he simply pushed the 28-inch bicycle that his eldest son had bought before he drove the truck out of the yard, got on it and rode towards the county town.

Happily,
I was going to pick up my eldest grandson. But that was the problem. If I hadn't tried, it would have been fine. But if I had tried, he would have died.

Lu Yang's uncle thought he had recovered well, but before he had even pedaled halfway on his bike, he began to pant and cough again, and had difficulty breathing.

At this time, it was noon again. The scorching June sun was hanging high in the center of the blue sky, and the cicadas in the bushes by the roadside had begun to wail incessantly under the scorching sun.

Lu Yang's uncle felt dizzy and fell onto the curb with a bang, along with the bicycle he was pedaling.

At that time, unlike later times, there were not many vehicles on the road. In addition, this place was not close to any village in front and no shop behind. It was just out of the range of Shanghuai Village and still far away from the county town.

For a while, no one noticed that Lu Yang's uncle had fallen on the side of the road.

As for the cause of death, was it a fall, or an attack of emphysema, or heat stroke? The sun was too strong, and the curb was too hot, so he was roasted to death...

Without autopsy, who would know?
The truth can only remain in doubt, and as time goes by, no one will mention it anymore.

Who discovered it?
What a coincidence.

Zhuangzhuang's fourth brother-in-law, Officer Li from the county investment promotion office, has been visiting his father-in-law's house very frequently in recent times.

First: work needs.

He has been assigned to the unsealing and reorganization of the Chashan Coal Mine in Shanghuai Village. He is the designated contact person, specifically responsible for representing the county in communicating with the Shanghuai Village Committee, which is his father-in-law.

Second: personal needs.

My brother-in-law's video hall is doing better and better every day. It's not that the business is getting better and better every day, but it's packed every day, and he makes so much money that he can't even count it.

This was his younger brother's brother-in-law. After the young man found out the news, he came back and told his sister and brother-in-law. His sister and brother-in-law, that is, his younger brother and his wife, hurried to his house and told him and his wife about it.

So greedy!
There was no need to urge him. He had been riding his bicycle frequently these days, running from the county to the township and to his father-in-law's home in Huai Village. In addition to putting on a show for his superiors, he was also waiting for news from the south.

My brother-in-law said so.

The owner of the garment factory has already agreed that when he goes south this time, he will try to get a batch of second-hand VCRs back. He will buy them cheaply and pool the money to open a video hall.

He bought shares in his wife's name, and then the couple could just wait at home and count the money.

So beautiful.

It was such a coincidence that when Zhuangzhuang's fourth brother-in-law came to the village again to ask his father-in-law for news, he happened to find Lu Yang's uncle lying on the roadside on the curb not far from the village entrance.

Unfortunately, it's too late.

By the time he hurriedly rode his bicycle into the village to call for help, Lu Yang's uncle had already died a long time ago.

"Wow, cousin, I don't have a father anymore. I am so unfilial. I didn't even see him for the last time."

In the car, Lao Liu was already crying loudly.

Although Lu Yang didn't cry, his eyes couldn't help but turn red when he heard him crying so sadly.

how to say?

Although his uncle was not very kind to him when he was alive and never took much care of him, after all, he had five biological sons and two biological daughters, a family of nine. He could not even get enough to eat himself, so how could he have the energy to take care of him, his nephew who was only one level below his bloodline?
Let's say that.

Lu Yang, his uncle, had no favors towards him, but he also had no hatred towards him.

Except that my aunt sometimes has a bad mouth.

Considering the blood relationship with his uncle, Lu Yang usually doesn't bother with her.

At this moment, I suddenly heard that this blood-related uncle had died unexpectedly.

He was actually quite surprised.

Because according to the memory before rebirth, even if my uncle's emphysema is not treated, it will still last for a few more years.

I seem to remember that when he died it was in the winter of 93 or 92.

But it is only 89 now, which is at least three years ahead of schedule, almost four years.

The family became well-off, financially better, and my uncle, who had received medical treatment, passed away early due to an accident.

How to say?
Things are impermanent!
Sitting in the car, looking at the bright lights and nightlife of Guangzhou, Lu Yang couldn't help but sigh.

We have arrived at the train station.

They gave a generous tip and sent the hotel manager away who had driven them there personally.

Lu Youzhi had cried enough, wiped the tears from her face, and volunteered to queue up to buy tickets.

Lu Yang took out the mobile phone from his waist and started making a call...
