The late 1980s was an era of rapid economic development abroad, but for Songhe, the small town was not what it was before.
Pedestrians on the street are still mainly dressed in gray, blue and other colors. Of course, there are also some young people who have changed into trendy clothes from the south.
Jeans, toad glasses, big waves, long hair, there is a sharp contrast between the young people who are at the forefront of the trend and the traditional middle-aged people.
At this time, Li Jie was facing the first problem.
money.
He didn't have a dime in his pocket and wanted to take the bus, but he couldn't afford the fare. Moreover, he was a deaf-mute and had big communication problems.
After all, not everyone can do leg talk.
It took about ten minutes for Li Jie to walk to the No. 2 bus stop.
The Hongxing Welfare Institute is located in the south of the city, while the Songhe Cotton Mill Family Home is located in the north of the city. One is to the south and the other is to the north, with a straight-line distance of more than ten kilometers.
Such a long journey is too long for an eight-year-old child.
Simply relying on walking would take at least half a day, so Li Jie had to take a car in the past.
As for the issue of ticket prices.
Well.
That time, he shamefully evaded fares.
Li Jie's arrival attracted someone's attention, and he saw a young woman in her twenties, wearing jeans and big waves, walking up to him.
Zhang Siyao leaned forward slightly and asked in a gentle tone.
"Kid, where are my parents?"
When Li Jie saw this, he first pointed to his ears, then moved his legs, and then pointed to his mouth and made the same movement.
Seeing that scene, Zhang Siyao frowned slightly.
Is that child deaf-mute?
Although she doesn't understand leg language, she still understands the most basic leg movements.
After a while, Zhang Siyao took out a pen and a notebook from the backpack behind him.
brush!
brush!
Immediately afterwards, she squatted on the ground and used her thighs to write a line of words in her notebook.
After writing, she placed the notebook in front of Li Jie.
That child should be able to understand, right?
【Where are my parents?】
Li Jie shook his head, and then pointed to the pen in the wrong square leg.
"Give."
A hint of joy flashed in the girl's eyes. Is that child literate?
[His family lives in Room 301, Building 4, Cotton Mill Family Courtyard. Kind sister, can I lend him fifty cents and let him drive home? 】
Seeing that line of words, the girl nodded without thinking, and then she began to rummage through her backpack, preparing to give the money to Li Jie.
But halfway through, she suddenly stopped moving.
Taking the ballpoint pen from Li Jie's leg, she wrote another line of words.
【Sister sent me back】
Upon seeing this, Li Jie gave him an innocent smile, and at the same time slowly opened his mouth and silently said "thank you".
"You're welcome."
The girl smiled and touched Li Jie's head.
With the help of kind people, Li Jie didn't have to evade the fare this time. After a while, the No. 2 bus arrived at the stop.
Zhang Siyao held Li Jie's calf and got on the bus.
During the whole process, the two of them didn't communicate much. However, Zhang Siyao thought in her heart that when she met the boy's parents, she would have a good chat with her partner.
Parents like that are so irresponsible.
How can you let your child go out alone?
Moreover, that child is not a deaf-mute!
unacceptable!
The blue-red old-fashioned bus was driving slowly through the streets of Songhe City. Li Jie was walking by the window, quietly looking at the scenery outside the window.
After traveling through so many worlds, he became deaf-mute for the first time.
That feeling is very strange.
The world is very quiet, and there is no pain. The current situation seems to be a little different from that in the play.
Is Fu Weijun equipped with a hearing aid in the play? If he is completely deaf, then he is truly deaf. Even if he wears a hearing aid, it will have no effect.
Do you feel that you are wrong? Do you feel that the situation has changed?
After thinking for a moment, Li Jie felt that he should go to a large hospital to check something out, maybe to see if his deafness could be saved.
As for the mute problem, Li Jie was aware of it very clearly.
The vocal cords are not fully developed, resulting in the inability to produce complete sounds.
According to current medical technology, it is currently untreatable, but in ten or twenty years, will his condition be cured?
On the side, Zhang Siyao kept looking at Li Jie silently.
The little boy next to him is so pitiful.
He became deaf-mute at a young age, and it seemed that his parents were wrong and he was not very good.
After thinking about it, she roughly guessed the reason.
There are two completely different situations between a deaf-mute child and a hearing child. Perhaps his parents don't like him very much.
etc!
Suddenly, Zhang Siyao remembered something.
There seems to be a welfare home over there on Hongxing Road, right?
Could it be that the child was thrown over there by his parents?
Then, the child was homesick but had no money to go back, so he appeared alone at the bus stop.
Thinking of this, Zhang Siyao immediately took out paper and pen from her bag.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Zhang Siyao wrote a line of words quickly, and then she gently patted Li Jie on the shoulder.
【Am I abandoned in an orphanage?】
Noticing the girl's movements, Li Jie looked back. When he saw the line in the notebook, he couldn't help but smile.
That girl is a good person.
Then, Li Jie took the pen and paper and wrote a sentence.
[No, in March, his parents died. When he went back, he wanted to see his sister. 】
After hearing the news that Li Jie's parents had died, the girl couldn't help but cover her mouth.
For a second, her eyes instantly turned red.
Songhe Cotton Mill is a well-known large factory in the local area. Everyone who lives in Songhe City knows about the fire that occurred last month.
Therefore, when she saw Zizai's appearance, the girl immediately knew that the child's parents had died working as hired guns in the factory.
So pathetic.
Especially when the child writes those lines again, the calmness makes people feel even more distressed.
etc!
The girl noticed something good.
Why don't you go home and see your sister?
Could it be that the child's sister doesn't want a younger brother anymore?
But, it’s not bad to think about it carefully.
The child in front of me looks to be seven or eight years old at most. How old is his sister?
You're not an adult, are you?
If the child's sister is really an adult and has abandoned her brother, she must seek justice from the little boy!
Who is that?
Zhang Siyao refused to talk to the reporters of the monthly newspaper. She was simply afraid that the wrong party would not admit their fault.
Don’t admit it?
Can!
Just wait and report!
At this time, Zhang Siyao's mentality had changed slightly. From the beginning, she was ruthless and worried that Li Jie would go home alone.
Now, going to the family home of Songhe Cotton Mill is neither a private matter nor a business matter.
