sleepless tonight

Chapter 498 I'm coming to pick you up

"If you really want to do it, I'll introduce you to do it." I said, "You bring a few people together, water and electricity, carpentry, masonry, and painters. When do you gather people together? Call me a job." Call, I will introduce you to you."

"Okay, okay, I know all these people." The third uncle nodded, "There is work to do, so I'm not afraid that I won't be able to attract people."

"You must find someone with decent craftsmanship. It doesn't matter if you don't know how to decorate, but you must understand the work in his hands. When the time comes, I will find someone to take you to train, see how others do it, and then do it yourself. If you have the foundation, you will be proficient soon.” I said, “This is more profitable than helping people build houses, and it is also much more comfortable.”

"Okay, no problem. I know this. I will definitely find the old masters to do it together. They have been working for more than ten years and have a lot of experience." The third uncle nodded.

I sent my third uncle to the station, paid for the fare for him, he went back by car, and I drove back to my parents.

"Get in the car?" My mother asked me when I entered the house.

"Get in the car." I nodded.

"Did you pay for the fare?" My mother asked again.

"I bought some fruits by the way and asked him to take them back." I cleaned up the dishes on the table.

"You don't need to handle the bowls and chopsticks. I will clean them up. You sit and accompany the child." My mother didn't let me do it. She took the bowls and chopsticks from me, and she cleaned them up by herself. "You child, you finally understand some truths." I asked you to go to the third uncle's house during the Chinese New Year, but you refused to go, now how do you know how to drive him to the station, pay him the fare, and buy some fruit for him to take back?"

"He's getting old," I said, "he has a lot of gray hairs on his head, and he's getting darker too."

"Is it possible not to get old?" My mother sighed, "I used to go up and down the stairs without getting dizzy, and it was fine to walk back and forth in one breath, but now I can't. gone."

"Your third uncle has some problems, but he is generally good, much better than your uncle." My mother said, "You can think this way, and you can lend him money. It is very good to understand these principles."

My mother mentioned my uncle, and I remembered an incident that happened before.

At that time, I was still in junior high school. My mother was ill and needed a handling fee of 2 yuan. At that time, my family didn’t have that much money, so I asked relatives to chip in some money, but it was still 5000 yuan short.

My uncle lives in the city, works dual jobs, and has a stable income. My dad and I went home to try to borrow some money, but he said no, and turned around, his daughter lost 5 yuan because of gambling. , The debt collector found his home, and he immediately went to the bank to withdraw 5 yuan in cash.

I was on the side at the time, and I heard the bank staff say that he still had a balance of 17 in his card, and asked him if he wanted to withdraw all of it, but he said no, the remaining money was kept for interest, and only 5 was withdrawn .

I heard what the staff said in the back, saw the five wads of cash in his hand, and thought of my mother lying in the hospital, waiting for 5000 yuan to save her life, so I asked him to borrow it, but he said he didn’t have it, and the result was withdrawn immediately With so much money, I feel very desolate.

That was his own sister, he did so chillingly, I shed tears at that time, and later Wu Dong chipped in 5000 yuan for me to save my mother's life.

After my mother recovered from the operation, I told her about it. After hearing this, my mother kept crying and was very depressed for several days. Since then, the family has broken up with my uncle. contacted.

This incident made me see through the so-called relatives. I feel that some relatives are not as good as friends. When there are holidays later, or when I go back during the Chinese New Year, I basically don’t leave relatives and stay at home.

After staying at home for two days, Tong Wangjun sent me a message, saying that she had boarded the train and would arrive in Wuchang soon.

I immediately called her: "Why didn't you know to call me in advance before you came?"

"Don't worry, I won't look for you, and it won't affect you. I'll send Xiao Le to my uncle and aunt." Tong Wangjun said.

My heart twitched: "That's not what I meant. I'm in E City now. I'm not with Su Ran. What I mean is, tell me in advance so that I can drive over to pick you up."

"You don't need to pick me up, I'll just go back to E City by car." Tong Wangjun said.

"It was already 10 o'clock in the evening when you arrived in Wuchang, where is there a car?" I said.

"Take a taxi, or carpool with others." Tong Wangjun said.

"Don't carpool with others. It's late at night. What if there is an accident? You can stay in Wuchang for one night and come back tomorrow morning." I was worried.

"Don't think too badly about people, how can accidents happen so easily?" Tong Wangjun said, "If you stay for one night, you will have to pay for the accommodation."

"How much is the accommodation fee for one night? More than 100 yuan, I will transfer it to you." I said, "You are a woman, you are so beautiful, I am sure no one will be attracted to it. Although Wuchang is far from Eshi It’s far away, but it takes more than an hour to come back by taxi or carpool, and the road is deserted and dangerous.”

"I don't want you to send money, I have money myself." Tong Wangjun said.

"Then did you hear it? I'll let you stay in a hotel in Wuchang tonight and return to E City tomorrow morning." I told Tong Wangjun.

"I see." Tong Wangjun nodded, "I'm done, I won't tell you anymore."

After hanging up the phone, I checked the time, it was already 8 o'clock in the evening.

After hesitating for a few minutes, I said to my mother, "Mom, Tong Wangjun is taking Xiaole by train. They will arrive in Wuchang tonight. I have to pick them up."

"You just drank, can you do it?" My mother was a little worried.

"I just drank two cups and two taels, no problem." I nodded.

"Be careful on the road, don't drive so fast. After you arrive in Wuchang, don't go back tonight. Rest there for the night, and come back tomorrow morning when you have enough energy." My mother told me.

"Okay, I know." I nodded.

"I'm going too." Chen Ke ran to me before she took a shower. My mother helped her blow-dry her hair, and she was wearing pajamas. Chen Ke was as beautiful as her mother, Tong Wangjun, a beauty.

"Just stay at home and sleep with grandma. Mom will come over tomorrow, and Xiao Le will come too." I didn't agree, so I hugged Chen Ke and kissed her.

I feel a little dizzy, and I can drive if I can drive, but I am worried that if an accident happens, I will regret it for the rest of my life with Chen Ke.

I will not put my children and my women in danger.

I took a sip of tea, cleared my mind a little, went downstairs, drove out of E City, and took the expressway leading to Wuchang.

There were cars speeding past on the road from time to time, and I was driving a little fast. The monotonous scenery made me a little dizzy, and my eyes actually narrowed.

Suddenly a harsh horn sounded next to my ears, and I woke up suddenly. There was a bright light in front of me, and I hurriedly turned the steering wheel and stepped on the brakes.

But something happened, the front of the car hit the guardrail, and I hit my head on the steering wheel.

The sudden change made my dizzy head suddenly become very clear, I broke out in a cold sweat, my heart beat faster, I couldn't help but secretly rejoiced, fortunately, it was only the front of the car that touched the guardrail, just knocked my head.

Good fortune and great destiny.

I can't imagine what would happen if the car crashed or turned over.

I didn't get out of the car, and looked at the damaged area in the car. Fortunately, I was sober and took action in time to avoid it.The front indicator was slightly distorted, I tried to restart the car, and the car moved.

I didn't call the police or my insurance company and just drove on.

I knew I was in the wrong, I drank and drove, and I was looking for death, so I definitely couldn't call the police.

Finally, I arrived at the train station 2 minutes before Tong Wangjun's train arrived. I immediately called Tong Wangjun, but she didn't answer. I guess it was coming to the station soon. The voice was a bit noisy, and she didn't hear it. I sent her another message: "I'm outside the train station, I'm here to pick you up, don't leave when you get out of the station later."

After sending this message, I kept calling her again, but for several minutes, seeing the train coming into the station and passengers coming out of the station one after another, Tong Wangjun still didn't answer my calls.
