The winter solstice day
That day happened to be the winter solstice. The winter solstice time is 7:16.
The arrival of the winter solstice marks the desolate and cold winter, and it really comes.
That day, the weather was very bad.
The north wind was whistling, blowing tirelessly, and the moderate rain accompanied by snow, hitting the world.
The howling north wind makes people feel particularly cold. The rain and snow make people feel hurt. It seemed that the cruel winter came unexpectedly overnight.
Someone said: "Winter is here, will spring be far away?" However, for some people, their winter has just begun. In the future, there will be no spring, summer, or autumn, but all winter. That cruel reality that has never been seen before gives people a feeling of indescribable depression. That feeling is like a mountain pressing on your body, making you feel aggrieved, uncomfortable, depressed, sad, and breathless.
Accident
On the winter solstice, although the weather was very bad, the north wind was bitter, and the rain and snow were raining, Li Daxue, who was the squad leader, still rode a motorcycle and came to work on the coal mine on time as usual.
According to the work arrangement of the morning shift meeting that day, the task of the day was to carry out daily maintenance and maintenance of the main and secondary derrick , without any other temporary work.
That morning, Li Daxue and more than a dozen people first repaired the main derrick. Main derrick repair, nothing happened, it went smoothly and was completed in an hour.
At 10 noon, Li Daxiu brought the maintenance personnel on duty to inspect the sub-derrick.
Li Daxiong wore a safety rope and a maintenance tool, and began to climb the secondary derrick to conduct targeted inspections.
It was rainy and snowy that day, and the derrick was very slippery. When Li Daxue climbed halfway to the secondary derrick, he accidentally stepped on the air and fell off the derrick more than 50 meters high.
Li Daxue fell to the ground and couldn't stand up.
He felt severe pain in his spine and waist.
Li Daxue was sent to the hospital in the county town from the coal mine, and his lover Zhang Qiao was notified.
Zhang Qiao was sitting in a car in the coal mine, followed closely behind and came to the hospital in the county town.
The hospital examination results showed that Li's spine was ruptured and lumbar vertebrae comminuted fracture.
Dr.
said: "According to my clinical experience, the recovery intact rate of patients with spinal rupture and lumbar comminuted fractures is minimal, almost zero. If there is no miracle in Li Daxue's future life, he should have to spend it in bed."
Faced with this sudden accident, Li Daxue felt pessimistic and desperate, and he silently shed tears. Li Daxue knew very well what his disease meant:
His big axis was broken, and his family lost its true pillar and became a burden to the family. I have old people above and young people below. How can the family live in the future!
Faced with this unexpected change, Zhang Qiao felt like five thunder thunder was thundering and cried bitterly.
Li Daxue stayed in the hospital for three months. At the urging of a doctor, he was discharged from the hospital and returned home.
Zhang Qiao settled Li Daxue and came to the coal mine alone. She shed tears to explain the family situation to the mine manager. The mine manager said: "A family like yours is really pitiful. I think this way, come to work at the mine and arrange a formal job for you. You can move your family to the family yard in the coal mine to facilitate care and care in the coal mine."
A month later, Zhang Qiao brought the paralyzed Li Daxue, a pair of underage children, and an elderly father-in-law Li Qian to the coal mine and lived in the family yard in the coal mine.
Just like that, such a family settled down in the family yard in the coal mine.
was hit again
After everything was settled, Zhang Qiao worked in the laundry room in the coal mine.
She works for eight hours a day, rests for sixteen hours, and has four days of public break every month. During this period, there were shifts and shifts and other situations.
For Zhang Qiao, who is born and raised in the countryside, it seems very easy to do a job like a laundry room without feeling tired. Zhang Qiao said: "The work of growing crops is much more tiring than this work. This work is fine, I can do it."
Fortunately, Zhang Qiao and her father-in-law Li Qian. Usually, Li Qian can take care of Li Daxue who is paralyzed in bed when Zhang Qiao is at work, pick up and drop off the underage children from school and go to the market, buy vegetables, cook and wash dishes for the family, etc. This old man plays his due role in the family and children.
One morning, the sky was raining and the ground was slippery. Li Qian took an umbrella and went to the market to buy vegetables three kilometers away.
On the way back, Li Qian slipped under his feet and fell down, causing a fracture of the ankle.
Li Daxue was lying on the bed alone, which was enough for Zhang Qiao to be anxious. Now Li Qian had a broken ankle again. In bed...
Zhang Qiao looked physically and mentally exhausted in the face of such a situation, and felt helpless and helpless.
But no matter how difficult life is or how hard life is, life still has to be lived day by day, and life still has to be endured day by day.
She often sighed in front of outsiders: Why is it so difficult for me in this life? Who brought me to the world!
Zhang Qiao used the weak shoulders of women to shoulder this shaky home. She bravely took on the heavy responsibility of the family.
Li Daxue said emotionally: "Wife, thank you for your hard work, let you be both a father and a mother, and support the whole family. "Li Qian said: "Child, it's hard for you." Big Shuttle and I have become your burden, I'm sorry! ”
Whenever Zhang Qiao heard this, she turned her face and then burst into tears, then frowned and said, “Don’t say anything more! "
Li Qian had a broken ankle and did not get up again. Two months later, he died.
Zhang Qiao sent him back to his old grave to bury him according to Li Qian's last wish.
Zhang Qiao paid for Li Qian's old age and fulfilled the responsibilities and obligations of a daughter-in-law.
encouraged Zhang Qiao to find a man outside
Li Daxue said sincerely: "Zhang Qiao, you are still young, less than forty years old, and you cannot serve a paralyzed person all day long and live a widow. If you really meet the right person, find another one, don’t make yourself suffer. "
Zhang Qiao seemed very angry at that time, and she said: "Li Daxue, what are you saying? You have no conscience. Am I that kind of person? Who do you think of me? Why are you like this? "
Li Daxue turned his face away and stopped talking.
Li Daxue shed tears.
Zhang Qiao said, but he had been working in the coal mine for a long time and found a man. The man was from Shanxi and the head of the contract team. But Li Daxue didn't know.
Five years later, Li Daxue was sick in bed for a long time, with multiple senses destruction, and died with infinite attachment. Li Daxue's last words were: I'm sorry to Zhang Qiao for this life, I really made her suffer and tired. After her death, Zhang Qiao must find another good family and never make herself suffer.
Zhang Qiao's heart was mixed with all kinds of feelings. Yes.
Zhang Qiaoxiang: Li Daxue's death is a relief for him, and it is also a relief for her. She has had enough of such a difficult life. After
, she brought Li Daxue back to her hometown and buried it at the ancestral grave, and buried it at the feet of Li Qian.
Zhang Qiao made up her mind to raise her two children in the future, so that the two children can grow up, but fulfill her wish for many years.
A year later, Zhang Qiao and the head of the contract team got married. The two of them will join hands to raise their two children to become humans.
