Rebirth do not come

Chapter 42 The First Dispute

Although my grandfather's leg injury has healed, he is just old, and his recovery ability is not as good as that of young people. After the injury, his leg is still a little lame. He is unwilling to use crutches. Every time he walks, he puts his hands behind his back, half rickety Walking with the back up and down, it makes people feel sad to watch.Grandpa has experienced a lot of hardships in his life, and he accepts setbacks and difficulties much more calmly than ordinary people.But the more this happened, the more distressed Ni Hui felt, and there was nothing he could do about it. He just tried his best to be the pistachio of Grandpa and help him with some small things.

Shui Xiangdong's fortune is very good. He has never missed a shot. During the summer vacation, he went to Shenzhen to buy mobile phones. He made tens of thousands of dollars in one trip. He made another two trips and made tens of thousands in total.This is much more profitable than the small businesses of game consoles and walkmans in the past.Business is like this, the higher the cost, the more lucrative the profit, so the rich will get richer and richer, this is the reason.Shui Xiangdong is still in the primitive accumulation period of capital. He is trying his best to enrich his capital, and when the right time comes, he will be able to let go and make a lot of money.

According to Ni Hui's plan, he went to the experimental middle school from junior high school, spent the happy and carefree middle school days with a few friends, but the plan was far behind the rapid changes.After Ni Hui came back from Shanghai, he heard that the city government had planned the eastern suburbs to build an industrial park, and the construction would start within this year.

This incident has been heard before, but no one expected it to happen so soon.Ni Hui can't remember exactly which year the house was demolished in his previous life, but he only remembers that it was in the late 90s, and now it's 1998, so the time should be about the same.

The house was going to be demolished, and the government's compensation conditions were very straightforward. The conditions were generous, and the requirements were of course high. All residents were required to move out within three months.The government will provide resettlement housing, but the resettlement housing is under construction, and there will be a transition period of several months to half a year, and residents need to find a place to live by themselves.

Ni Hui and Shui Xiangdong knew about the demolition for a long time, but when it was time to demolish, it felt very uncomfortable to move away from the home they were familiar with, like giving up a part of their blood.Grandpa and grandma have lived here for many years, and are used to the open and leisurely environment of the suburbs. Now they have to move to the city again, and part with the old neighbors they are familiar with. It always feels unacceptable.

When Chen Liping heard about this, she suggested that her parents simply move to Shanghai. Ni Hui also went to school in Shanghai, just in time to develop a relationship with her younger sister. Ni Hui could also find another calligraphy teacher.It is estimated that this matter is not only Chen Liping's intention, but also Zhang Taiqing's intention. They are worried that Ni Hui and Yuanyuan are too far apart in age, and their relationship is too weak, and the siblings will not get along well in the future.

Grandpa and grandmother naturally don't want to go to Shanghai. The two sons are here, so how could they join their daughter?

Chen Liping couldn't talk to her parents, so she had to provide her original home for her parents to live in.Ni Hui's grandparents thought about it and accepted their daughter's proposal.Ni Hui's uncles have said that they let their parents live in their house, but the old man is used to living alone, and his relationship with his two daughters-in-law is just so-so, so he is willing to live alone for fear of being suspected by others.

Their housing problem has been solved, but that of the Shui Xiangdong brothers has not yet been solved.It is true that Shui Xiangdong bought two houses in the city before, but the houses were bought for demolition. It is conceivable that the houses are very old, and the location is relatively remote, not suitable for living.The demolition compensation provided by the government is very generous. After the demolition, his family will be divided into several houses, but now there is no suitable house to live in. Shui Xiangdong has money at hand, so renting and buying a house is not a big problem, but he has not done it for a long time. The decision was to find a house near Ni Hui's house so that he and Ni Hui could continue to be neighbors.

Shui Xiangdong was really looking forward to the demolition. Once they were demolished, they would get several houses, and with the development, the value of the houses would increase significantly. It was all money.But now he finds that once the house is demolished, all the good times he spent with Ni Hui will become fragments of memory. He can no longer go to Ni Hui's house early in the morning to play Tai Chi with him, commute to school together, and practice together. Words, not being able to eat together... This loss is too great, it is simply horrible.During the second half of the summer vacation, Shui Xiangdong didn't go to Shenzhen to do business anymore. He was upset about finding a house and moving.

Shui Xiangdong plans to find a house near Ni Hui's house, so that we can be together often, but it is hard to find a house near Ni Hui's house. This area is a mature old residential area, very prosperous, and most of the old residents live by themselves , very few empty houses.It's almost the start of school, and the house in Shui Xiangdong has not been found yet.

Ni Hui's grandfather has decided to move there before school starts, so that it will be more convenient for Ni Hui to go to school.They have been packing things these days. They have lived in a house for more than ten years, and there are a lot of things at home. Ni Hui's house is just a simple three-bedroom and one living room. It must not fit so many things, so they had to throw away everything that could be thrown away. , and those that cannot be thrown away and are not needed, they will be moved to Uncle Ni Hui’s house, and will be put in the resettlement house after the resettlement house is completed.

The two Shui Xiangdong brothers came over, and the grandmother asked, "Xiangdong, have you found the house yet?"

Shui Xiangdong shook his head lazily: "Not yet." He glanced into the study, saw Ni Hui collecting things in the study, and went in.

Ni Hui put the books on the bookshelf into a cardboard box, and said, "School will start in a few days, you still haven't found it, and you can move it after school?"

Shui walked eastward to help: "I don't know, I didn't find a suitable house."

"Where do you want to find a house? You can find one near the school. Anyway, you can live in a new house in a few months." Ni Hui said.

Shui looked eastward at Ni Hui: "I want to find a house near you."

Ni Hui looked at Shui Xiangdong: "Why do you have to live with us?"

Shui looked eastward at Ni Hui and said nothing.

Ni Hui was also a little irritable. He had to move recently, leave the living environment he was accustomed to, and change his original living habits. No one felt happy, and Ni Hui's tone became bad: "You can't be with my grandfather forever. Let's live with grandma, you have grown up now, you can take care of yourself, don't keep relying on others."

As soon as Shui Xiangdong heard about this, he became anxious. Would Ni Hui look down on him because of this? He hurriedly shouted: "Is that what I mean? I don't have to rely on your grandparents, but I just feel that I have been a neighbor for so long. I just want to be neighbors forever."

"In the future, the resettlement houses will be divided, and the houses can still be kept together. Now that you haven't lived together in the past few months, you are like a weaned child, looking like you are dying. It's really annoying. I don't like it." Ni Hui said angrily.

Shui Xiangdong frowned: "Ni Hui, are you really stupid or just pretending to be confused, don't I just want to be with you?"

Ni Hui paused the movements of his hands: "Are you sick?"

Shui looked at him to the east, and admitted very frankly: "Yes, I have a disease." A disease that makes life uncomfortable without him.

Ni Hui suddenly burst into anger, did he pamper this guy too much, and never settled with him, and he became more and more enthusiastic, sticking to it like a piece of brown sugar: "Get out! I get annoyed when I see you! Crazy!"

The muscles at the corners of Shui Xiangdong's mouth trembled, and his mind was a little dazed. After working so hard for so long, this result is still the same!Shui Xiangdong blinked vigorously, trying to blink back the discomfort: "I'm not crazy, I just want to see you well."

"When did I get sick? It's your turn to take care of me? What kind of onion are you?" Ni Hui's chest heaved violently, he threw the study cardboard box in his hand, turned around and left, The water is facing east, and I really thought I had let go of the past.

Ni Hui made a decision: to go to school in Shanghai.Anyway, my mother mentioned it many times, Zhang Taiqing also mentioned it to me twice, and Teacher Tian also said that if he wants to improve his calligraphy, it is best to go to Shanghai to find a calligraphy teacher to guide him.Shui Xiangdong sticks to him so stubbornly, so he simply ignores it. Don't let him hope again. In his previous life, he caused him to be like that. Do you think you will forgive him?

That night, Ni Hui called his mother, saying that he had changed his mind and wanted to go to school in Shanghai, and asked her to help him find a school.Chen Liping was overjoyed, although she felt that it was a bit rushed, it could still be done, so she agreed wholeheartedly.

After Ni Hui made the phone call, he said to his grandparents: "Grandpa, grandma, I'm sorry, I still decided to go to school with my mother."

Both grandpa and grandma looked at him in shock: "What's the matter, Hui Hui?"

Ni Hui lowered his eyes and said, "I've thought about it for a long time, and I think it's better to go to Shanghai. I want to have a greater breakthrough in calligraphy, and I want to find a good teacher to learn it."

Grandpa and grandma have taken care of him for so many years, and they have long been connected as flesh and blood. When they heard that he was going to leave, the old couple felt as if a piece of their hearts had been dug out, and suddenly felt empty, and grandma even wiped away tears.Grandpa took a deep breath: "Hui Hui, you've already decided?"

Ni Hui nodded and said, "Shui Xiangdong and his brother haven't found a suitable house yet. After I go to Shanghai, let them live in my room and let them accompany you, okay?"

Grandma wiped her tears: "Huihui, did you think that Xiangdong and Xiangyang had no place to live, so you let them out?"

Ni Hui shook his head violently: "Of course not. The quality of teaching in Shanghai should be better, and the educational resources should be better, and my mother wants me to go there, and Uncle Zhang also wants me to go there. Yuanyuan is not close. That's why I decided to go there. I think that if the two brothers live in our house, grandpa and grandma will not be alone, and someone will accompany them. Do you think it's okay?"

Grandpa wiped his face and said, "If you really decide to go to your mother's place, of course we won't stop you. I'll tell him about the Xiangdong brothers, and they will come if they want."

Ni Hui nodded: "Tomorrow we will move, and I will go to Shanghai the day after tomorrow. Before I leave, I will tell him. Don't tell them yet."

Grandpa and grandma didn't make a sound for a long time, and the child they brought up was about to leave, and it would be a lie to say that they were not sad.But children always have to grow up, and they will leave sooner or later. This is the law of society and nature, even if you are sad, you can't stop it.

When they moved the next day, Shui Xiangdong still came to help them pack their things. Ni Hui never talked to him, but just looked at things silently, holding the big blue and white porcelain plate he bought in Suzhou.This blue-and-white porcelain plate has been on the top of the bookshelf for many years. At first, it was said that it would be used as a display, but I forgot it later. I only remembered it when I was moving this time.Ni Hui opened it and looked at it, and still found it exquisite. He thought, this thing should be kept well, and he will use it as a decoration when he has a house in the future.

Shui Xiangdong was scolded shamelessly by Ni Hui yesterday, he was not without sadness, but he couldn't just run away after being scolded.We have to move these days, and everyone is in a bad mood. When everything settles down, it should be the same as before.

Ni Hui saw that things were almost packed, so he stopped Shui Xiangdong: "Shui Xiangdong."

Shui Xiangdong was overjoyed, and ran over, looking at him eagerly like a lap dog: "You called me?"

Ni Hui lowered his eyes: "I'm going to Shanghai tomorrow."

"Huh? Did something happen in Shanghai? School is about to start."

Ni Hui said: "I know. I go to school in Shanghai."

Shui Xiangdong only felt that a bolt from the blue had hit him, and he was stunned: "Why?"

Ni Hui said: "I want to go to Shanghai to learn calligraphy. My mother and Uncle Zhang also want me to go there to accompany Yuanyuan."

"Didn't you already pass the test in Experimental Middle School?" Shui Xiangdong was in a state of confusion. What was going on? He had always said that he couldn't go to Shanghai a few times before. Why did he suddenly say that he was going? It was his own fault. , forcing him too fast? "Is it because I want to live with you? Is it okay if I don't live with you? Don't go, I'll find a house near the school."

Ni Hui didn't answer him, but continued: "I'm going to Shanghai to go to school, and my grandparents won't be taken care of from now on. Before the resettlement house is repaired, can you and Yang Yang move to my house? Please accompany my grandparents, please gone."

Shui Xiangdong stared desperately at Ni Hui, almost tearing up, what did he mean, he simply ran to Shanghai, was he going to completely cut off contact with him?Completely cut off contact, why should he take care of his grandparents by himself?

Ni Hui looked up at Shui Xiangdong: "Of course, it's up to you to decide whether to go or not."

Shui Xiangdong blinked vigorously: "Do you have to go to Shanghai? Must go?"

Ni Hui said, "Yes, we must go."

"Why?" Shui Xiangdong asked again.

Ni Hui said blankly: "I have already said, to learn calligraphy, to accompany my mother and sister."

Shui Xiangdong said, "You didn't go because you wanted to avoid me?"

"Why should I hide from you? I'm not afraid of you." Ni Hui gave him a white look.

"You don't really hate me like you said yesterday?" Shui Xiangdong asked.

Ni Hui looked at him like a wretch, unable to say any bitter words: "It's not particularly annoying, but sometimes I feel a little annoying. Besides, it's not that I won't come back, and you don't know where my home is. If you have time, you can come and play with Zhang Yongyangyang."

Shui Xiangdong looked at Ni Hui pitifully, his heart was full of anxiety, he didn't want to see him at first, but now he was going to Shanghai, how much more interaction would they have in the future, he suddenly felt that his road ahead was dark.

There were too many things, and it took two large carts to finish pulling them.When Ni Hui left, Shui Xiangdong sat on the stone bench with his younger brother, watching Ni Hui climb into the cab of the truck, and the car started slowly.Shui Xiangdong's tears rushed to his eyes, he tried to keep his eyes open, for fear that the tears would fall down in the blink of an eye, it was too embarrassing.

Sitting in the car, Ni Hui watched the familiar small courtyard slowly go away, the figures of Shui Xiangdong and Shui Xiangyang also receded out of sight, and the familiar courtyard and field outside the window all slowly receded, A sense of desolation arises in my heart, why are those beautiful things always being destroyed, and they are gone forever.In the future, he will not come back here again, and let this beauty be sealed in his memory forever.

Shui Xiangdong sat in the yard with a numb mind, looked at the mess in the yard, and thought of the warmth and beauty of the past: Ni Hui was doing Tai Chi in the yard, squatting in that corner to feed the rabbits, digging under the banana tree I used to sit on the stone bench and chat with myself, go in and out of the gate, look down at myself from the balcony...all of these will never be seen again.

Shui Xiangyang turned his head and looked at Shui Xiangdong: "Brother, brother Huihui and grandparents are gone, what should we do?" Shui Xiangyang couldn't help but burst into tears.

Shui Xiangdong took his younger brother's head into his arms, choked up and said, "Don't cry, Yangyang, we have somewhere to go." Since Ni Hui asked him to take care of his grandpa and grandma, let's take care of him, that's his grandpa Grandma, I can still get first-hand information about Ni Hui from them, although it is not clear whether he is taking care of the old man or the old man is taking care of them.

Shui Xiangdong sniffed hard.He looked at the rabbit cage, there were still two fat rabbits left in it, which Ni Hui said, they promised to Shui Xiangyang a long time ago, they sold all the other rabbits, only these two remained.He got up and took his younger brother's hand: "Yangyang, let's take the little rabbit home."

Shui Xiangyang looked back at Ni Hui's grandpa's house: "Brother, we won't be able to eat at grandma's house from now on."

Shui Xiangdong stood still, turned around, and saw a big "demolition" character painted on the wall with white lime, surrounded by a white circle, Shui Xiangdong felt that the demolition of the character "demolition" not only demolished the house, but also his own. The trust and affection I finally won from Ni Hui.Shui Xiangdong's tears could no longer be controlled, slipped from his eyes, fell to the ground, raised a small amount of dust, and disappeared.
