He took a bus to the train station and received a lame Jiang Zhigang with a big bag.
Lu Hao and Jiang Zhigang had only met each other once, and they were strangers to each other when they met. However, Lu Hao showed the courtesy and respect that he should have. He picked up the person and helped him carry the nylon bag out of the station.
Because Jiang Zhigang brought a lot of things, he took a taxi home.
Jiang Zhigang saw that the gauze on Lu Hao's face was gone and there was no obvious abnormality on his face. He was filled with relief in his heart.
Only when Lu Hao's face healed and his relationship with Gu Nan improved, the guilt in his heart would lessen.
As Gu Nan's brother, he was unable to stop Jiang Daming at the beginning, and he felt very sad all the time.
Lu Hao glanced sideways at his uncle, who was acting awkwardly next to him, and asked for a topic, "I heard Nan Nan say that he wants to find a job for you in Lancheng?"
Jiang Zhigang nodded hurriedly, "Yes, there is nothing to do in my hometown. I want to find a job in the city to earn some money to build a house."
"fine."
Lu Hao is a slow-tempered person and is not good at chatting with unfamiliar people. Fortunately, the car quickly arrived at the gate of the family home and the two unloaded their luggage.
Jiang Zhigang brought a nylon bag and an old luggage bag from his hometown. He was also dressed very simply. Lu Hao directly carried the nylon bag on his shoulders.
As soon as the two entered the family courtyard, someone teased Lu Hao, "Xiao Lu, is there someone from my hometown again?"
Lu Hao replied, "Yes."
"You have enough relatives in your hometown."
The Family Courtyard is such a big place, and everyone knows who comes to have relatives.
Lu Hao's family is the family that loves to have relatives.
Wang Cuiping and Tiedan had just returned from shopping outside and happened to meet Lu Hao in the family courtyard greeting an acquaintance.
Tiedan saw Lu Hao and ran over in a familiar manner, "Uncle Lu Hao."
"Tiedan, where have you been?" Lu Hao's tone towards children would always be deliberately gentle.
"My mother took me to buy groceries."
Wang Cuiping looked at the man carrying an old luggage bag and asked enthusiastically, "Doctor Lu, are there guests?"
Lu Hao introduced to Wang Cuiping, "This is Brother Nan Nan."
"Brother Nan Nan, I know, I was right next to you when Nan Nan called last time."
"Here, let me lift it for you." Wang Cuiping saw that there was something wrong with the young man's foot, and she enthusiastically extended her hand to help.
Jiang Zhigang avoided her uncomfortably, "Thank you, I'll do it myself."
"Let's go, we'll live in this building."
Lu Hao took Jiang Zhigang upstairs.
Wang Cuiping and Tiedan followed outside and walked upstairs together.
Lu Hao opened the door and led Jiang Zhigang into the house.
Gu Nan is still sleeping.
Lu Hao poured water for Jiang Zhigang and asked him to sit down first, and then went to call Gu Nan.
"Nannan, wake up quickly."
Lu Hao gently pushed the woman who was sleeping soundly with her head buried in the quilt, "Your elder brother is here."
Gu Nan clicked his tongue and muttered, "Just come."
As soon as Lu Hao saw Gu Nan's posture, he knew that she thought he was talking about Gu Yahui.
He reminded her in her ear, "He's from my hometown, Jiang Zhigang."
Hearing Jiang Zhigang's name, Gu Nan opened his eyes, woke up immediately, and sat up.
"where?"
"I just picked her up from the station and was sitting in the living room."
Gu Nan quickly got up, fixed her hair, and ran to the living room.
Jiang Zhigang was sitting awkwardly on the sofa, holding a water glass in his hand, motionless.
Gu Nan felt a sore nose inexplicably when he saw someone he hadn't seen for a long time.
She shouted crisply, "Brother."
Jiang Zhigang turned around dully and saw the slender girl standing at the door of the bedroom. His dull face was obviously stunned.
Jiang Zhigang stood up and looked at Gu Nan blankly, his eyes full of shock.
Gu Nan smiled and said, "Brother, why are you looking at me like that? Can't you recognize me?"
"Nannan, why have you lost so much weight?"
Jiang Zhigang asked with concern, "Isn't the food in the city not very good?"
Gu Nan, "!!1"
Jiang Zhigang had no idea that the way she looked in the village before was actually abnormal.
In Jiang Zhigang's perception, losing weight means living a bad life.
Gu Nan came over and sat next to him and explained to him, "Brother, I wasn't fat before, I was swollen. Jiang Daming and Wang Shenglan gave me medicine. Now this is the normal state."
Jiang Zhigang looked shocked, "What?"
Obviously, Jiang Zhigang had no idea what she was going through.
"Forget it, let's not talk about those bad things."
Gu Nan looked at him and asked, "It's been a long time since you called. Why did you just come? I've been waiting."
Jiang Zhigang explained, "There is still some work in the fields. I just came here after finishing the work. The land cannot be left abandoned. Other people's corns have been broken off, but no one is taking care of ours. I have broken off the corns, threshed them, dried them and sold them."
Just came."
"Gu Yajie, no, is that Jiang Yajie still in his hometown?" Gu Nan asked curiously when Jiang Zhigang mentioned his hometown.
That idiot is quite capable of living in the countryside for so long.
Hearing Jiang Yajie's name, Jiang Zhigang frowned instinctively, "No, he and his mother left, saying they were going to the city to find a job. I don't know where they went."
Jiang Zhigang is a transparent person at home.
Jiang Daming and Jiang Mei didn't tell him when they left last time, and Wang Shenglan and Jiang Yajie didn't tell him when they left this time.
When he came back from working, Wang Shenglan asked him for money, saying that he wanted to buy new clothes for his brother, but Jiang Zhigang didn't give him money, and then they had a quarrel.
This time Jiang Zhigang did not accept the situation and vomited out all his years of grievances and bitterness. Wang Shenglan only cursed lightly, "Who called you a useless cripple?"
One sentence made Jiang Zhigang give up the idea of arguing with them.
No one can understand what it feels like to have your own dignity trampled under your feet by your own biological mother.
But, is he willing to be a cripple?
It's not because their parents were irresponsible. When he was six or seven years old, he was asked to let go of that stubborn mule.
He was kicked down the mountain.
Lameness is mild.
He never understood the meaning of the words "retribution" that Nie Yun muttered to himself when bandaging him after he was injured as a child.
Only now did he realize that this was Jiang Daming's bad deed, and retribution had come to him as his son.
