Taxi at night

Chapter 136, The Blind Masseur
Lu Ren and Gao Liumei are ready to buy a taxi together, and reached a preliminary cooperation intention at Guo Yi's son's full moon banquet. The specific contract needs to be selected for the next step of detailed negotiation.

The next step is to choose the opportunity to buy a car. This cannot be done in one trip. It requires patience to search and choose the opportunity to move.

In the community where Lu Ren lives, there is a cancer patient in his early [-]s, with thinning white hair, inconvenient movement, and being bedridden all year round, which can easily cause muscle atrophy and stiff limbs.

In order to prolong the life of the old man, her family chose conservative treatment, one of which was regular massage, and went to a blind massage shop five kilometers away from home every two days.

The old man's surname is Liu, and people call him Old Man Liu.At noon that day, old man Liu's wife came to Lu Ren's house and made a request.

"Xiao Lu, I beg you to do something, do you have time to send someone over?"

"Aunt Liu, I'm not free during the day!" Lu Ren knew a little about Old Man Liu's situation, so he said in a bit of a dilemma.

"I know, you didn't pick up the car at five o'clock in the afternoon... at this time, what do you think?" Aunt Liu discussed.

"That's it..." Lu Ren hesitated, and said in his heart that it is not cost-effective to pick up old man Liu. It does not make money and takes a long time. Basically, no one wants to do this kind of work, otherwise they will not come to the door .But after all, he was a neighbor in the same community, so Lu Ren couldn't save face for a while, after thinking about it, he agreed.

The massage shop is on a back street in the city. It has a small frontage, about ten square meters, and the room is poorly furnished. There is only one massage table, one chair and one table, and a blind middle-aged man.

It was also Lu Ren's first contact with a blind masseuse. It was strange how to accurately massage a patient when he was blind.
"Master, how long have you been in this business?" Lu Ren didn't walk away immediately, but asked curiously.

"It's been ten years. Since I lost my eyesight, I learned from others for two or three years, and this massage shop has been open for nearly ten years." The blind masseur said calmly while massaging the patient with his hands and feet. .

"It's been more than ten years. Is the income okay?" Lu Ren admired this blind masseur from the bottom of his heart. He was physically and mentally handicapped. In the eyes of outsiders, this kind of person has basically lost the ability to work and is purely a burden on the family. and baggage.

"It's not bad! An income of one or two thousand a month is enough to support myself." The blind masseuse said neither humble nor overbearing, his face full of pride.

"How to solve the problem of eating?" A young man with healthy limbs has no problem cooking, but how can a blind person solve it?
"I also have a sister who delivers meals at noon when she is free. I am too busy, so I can make them myself."

"You can cook by yourself?" Lu Ren was a little skeptical. He searched the simple room with his eyes, and sure enough, he found a gas tank and a knife board under the table... It didn't look fake either.

"What's wrong? You don't believe it?" The blind masseur finished massaging the head and began to massage the patient's limbs. "Actually, it's not as difficult as you think. One thing... as long as you practice repeatedly, practice makes perfect, it's still possible."

This is a blind man who strives for self-improvement, a man who is not satisfied with the arrangement of fate, he is challenging himself to turn his miserable life into a happy life.

Lu Ren withdrew with deep respect. Compared with this blind man, he couldn't be happier.

Old man Liu's health is good and bad, and it has a lot to do with the environment.When the weather is cloudy, the health condition is obviously not good; when the weather is sunny, the old man Liu seems refreshed after the massage, and he seems to be young again.

This kind of life lasted for more than two months, until one day at noon I received a call from Aunt Liu, telling him the news of Old Man Liu's death.

"What's wrong?" Tan Rui noticed that her husband looked different, and seemed a little depressed.

"Old man Liu is gone." Lu Ren said in a hoarse voice, unable to cheer up all day.

At night, when Lu Ren received a call from Tang Xue, his mood gradually improved.

"Brother, my ankle is sprained, don't you think it's annoying!" Tang Xue said cheerfully on the phone, she didn't look angry at all, she seemed very happy.

"Why did you sprain your feet? Don't you want to run to climb mountains?" Since Tang Xue came back from traveling, her mental outlook has taken on a new look, and she always speaks and does things with a rush of energy. From this point of view, it is not surprising that she sprained her feet today. thing.

"Where do I have time to go climbing? Now I take a lot of classes. In addition to the Chinese class in the first grade, I also give me part of the music class. Brother, tell me... isn't this bullying honest people?"

"You didn't just show off, and you can't blame others." Tang Xue loved music since she was a child, and it seemed that she was born to eat this bowl of food.Stand out in school and stand out.During the summer vacation this year, I went to the south with a few classmates to play, but I refused to keep my own place. I went to the bar to sing, just one song, which attracted the attention of the bar owner, and persuaded her to be a temporary guest singer there. For about a month, I have passed the addiction of a singer.Of course, the income is also quite good. After returning from the summer vacation, she earned more than 3 yuan, which is more cost-effective than being a teacher. This made her very happy, and even gave birth to the idea of ​​resigning.

As soon as the idea of ​​resignation came up, Lu Ren and his godmother mercilessly wiped it out in the bud.What are you kidding?How can it be possible to give up a good job, a girl's family, and fantasize about going to the south to become a singer?

So Lu Ren shouldered the role of temporary guardian again, keeping an eye on this restless sister.

"If you don't give me a raise, there's really nothing to do." The girl got excited again.

"This is the recognition of your ability by the school leaders. You are young and a newcomer. Don't talk about money every now and then. This will not affect your development well, and it will not be good for your development in the school. Xiaoxue... work hard! I I'm optimistic about you." Lu Ren persuaded and cheered as always.

"It's really boring to see the future at a glance. Brother, the school gave me a day off. You come to pick me up at night. I will rest with you for two days and come back to work on Monday."

Today is Thursday, it seems that this girl has made up her mind, so she made the call.

"Not tonight, I have an appointment with someone to buy a car, and I will pick you up early tomorrow morning."

After two months of searching, Lu Ren finally found a suitable taxi. After signing the transfer contract tonight, his second wish will be fulfilled, so he can't be distracted.

"I'm going to buy a car tonight? Do you have enough money? If not, I'll lend you the money." After hearing this, Tang Xue immediately expressed her support for Lu Ren's career as always. She is worthy of being her good sister.

"That's fine. Lend me the money first. It's better than leaving it with you, so you don't have to spend money extravagantly." Lu Ren's money is slightly insufficient, and tens of thousands more can solve a lot of things. So without delay, I agreed directly.
