Chapter 283

The old woman saw a pile of money in her hand, and she was very happy. "Good man, it's hard for you to think about that child. Come on in."

The environment here is very simple. The house is more uneven and pitted than the road outside. The tent in the room is dilapidated. There is an unidentified smell of ointment in it. The air is also very turbid. Half of the windows are missing. It's a totally unimaginable bad environment.

After sitting down, we learned that William was the eldest son of the family. His father was seriously ill and paralyzed in bed. His mother was a housewife and had no job. William also had two younger brothers who were in debt and then went out without a trace. William's elder sister died in childbirth the year before last. One of his two younger sisters was a prostitute, One is the little girl we saw at the door before. She is only seven years old.

The only source of their family's income now is a regular remittance from overseas, as well as some of William's alumni's voluntary aid donations. Although not much, they barely make a living.

Speaking of William, the old woman's face was faint. She didn't have any feelings about the eldest son's death. However, it was the people who gave money that made her face look a little bit.

There are several pictures on the wall of this house, but none of them is William's, as if this person had never existed.

I took out the photo of Shina, and the old woman had a little reaction when she saw it. "This girl used to come to our house. She liked William very much at that time and wanted to be with him. It's a pity that William didn't marry her. It's said that her family is an oil digger. If William married her, tut Tut, our family would have a better life."

"Has she been here recently?" I asked.

The old woman shook her head. "William has been dead for so long. What else can she do?"

"Hasn't Shina been here since William died? But is she so fond of William that she won't even go to his grave? " Jiang Xiaobei was a little surprised.

The old woman muttered: "that woman is really mean. She only has William who has died. She doesn't care about the lives of those of us who are still alive. Even if she comes, she will only go to the cemetery to see William. She doesn't want to come to see us. William's tomb is on the other side of the city, so we don't have time to see her."

My family didn't even go to see their graves.

Jiang Xiaobei and I were a little shocked.

Jiang Xiaobei couldn't help saying, "after all, William is your son. As a mother, how can you not go to his grave?"

"Little girl, where can I leave my family? You don't know how far it is to the east of the city. Who can take care of my children and my sick husband?" The old woman said angrily, "if you could hire a nanny for me, I could go to see William now. Besides, he didn't work and committed suicide after he owed a lot of debt. This bastard didn't take his family seriously at all. He worked hard to support him when he grew up and raised such a white eyed wolf. I knew that. At the beginning, I gave him the money to feed the dog, And don't waste a cent on this son of a bitch. "

"Mom, my brother has been trying to send money home since he went to school. The money he sent us is more than the money you gave him before." William's little sister couldn't help reminding.

The old woman glared at her, "dead girl, how can you talk here?"

The little sister immediately bowed her head and did not dare to speak.

"Can you tell us where William's tomb is? We want to go and worship. " I said.

The old woman looked at us and said, "I haven't been there for a long time. I'm afraid I can't remember clearly for a moment. You know, I have to worry about my family's oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar every day. Besides living, there are so many cemeteries there..."

How can anyone even make complaints about where their own son's graveyard is, I simply can't help.

"Will you see if this is enough?" Mike took out a pile of money and put it on the table.

When the old woman saw the pile of money, her eyes became straight and she said, "I remember that William was buried in row 16, row 03, area F, cemetery 3 in the east of the city."

Mike handed her the money, turned around and took us out to take a taxi to the east of the city.

"How can we have such a mother who doesn't care about her son's death at all, leaving only money in her head?" After coming out, Jiang Xiao Bei could not help but Tucao, "I really don't know if anyone can make complaints about buying her son's urn, can she immediately dig it out to the others?"

"Even if she sold William's urn, we have no right to accuse her. A woman, a husband who can't take care of herself, has two sons who are in debt. The eldest daughter died, and the second daughter sold her body as a prostitute in exchange for the living expenses of the family. The younger daughter is still so small, and her future is unknown. What can she do, If a person can't even get the basic conditions for survival, he can sell everything. " I murmured.

Jiang Xiaobei sighed, "I will go to those rescue associations to learn about the situation, and strive for more subsidies for them. It's not in vain to come here."

"You are still so kind, Xiao Bei." Mike gave her a smile. "But many of the poor people here are worse off than them. Compassion can't help them. I know you'll feel bad when you come here for the first time, but that's the common character of people here. You can't change it by yourself."

Xiao Bei lowered his head and did not speak.

She has always been a woman with a knife mouth and a tofu heart. In the past, she was able to run all over the world to protect animals and suffered a lot. Now, she can see that there are poor people living a desperate life here. However, what she does is not suitable. It is estimated that it is very contradictory.

"We'd better solve the problem of Shina first. You've told me before that we should see our responsibilities clearly. I don't think the William family has reached the point where they can't live. If we have the ability, we can fight for some benefits for them." I comforted, "I know you're kind and want to do what you can, but let's put that behind us."

Jiang Xiaobei nodded and leaned on my shoulder. I patted her shoulder. In a strange country, we can only rely on each other.

Mike took us to the east of the city and found William's tombstone.

On the tombstone is a young and handsome boy with a slight stubble on his chin and a smile on his lips. He looks at the camera with big eyes, as if he has infinite hope.

It's a pity that such hope has been taken underground and can't be seen any more.

"Someone came to worship him." Jiang Xiaobei said, looking at the White Chrysanthemum under William's tombstone.

"It must be hina. William's family doesn't care about it at all. Only hina will remember that William will come here." I immediately reaction, heart a joy, "it seems that we have come to the right."

"What's right? People have already left. What can we do when we arrive?" Jiang Xiaobei said dejectedly.

"Today is not William's death day, but the day after tomorrow. When we come here the day after tomorrow, we will surely see Shina." I said.

She must have learned that Zhong Qing has been supporting William's family all these years. Her heart trembles and she doesn't know whether what she insists on is right or not. So she comes back to visit William first.

I stayed with Xiaobei for another two days. During this period, I didn't contact Peili, and I didn't intend to contact Peili.

Xuanxuan and Muqin often contact me, and the two children don't mention Peili. They just say they miss me and want me to go back quickly.

In this relationship, the most helpless is these two children. If I didn't have time outside, I really want to take them with me.

On the day of William's death, we arrived at William's grave early. In order to avoid frightening others, we hid in the pavilion on the hillside, with a telescope staring at the other side.

The weather on this day is not very good, dark clouds, it is estimated that people who come to worship will be more sad.

"Here we are. Someone has stopped at William's tombstone." When I took time to eat a mouthful of chocolate to replenish my strength, Mike, who had been standing guard with a telescope, yelled fiercely.

Jiang Xiaobei patted me and urged me to see if it was Shina. As a result, he slapped me on the back. I almost choked to death. In a hurry, he picked up the telescope to see if it was Shina.

Today's Shina is wearing a long black dress, holding a bunch of white chrysanthemums in her hand. She put the bouquet in front of William's tombstone, squatted beside William's tombstone, raised her hand and gently stroked the photos above, looking very sad.

It seems that she really loves William, so she can't let go of it for so many years. She still remembers William's death and hasn't entered into the next relationship.

"I'll meet her. You can wait for me here." I quickly put down my telescope and walked out of the pavilion with the ready bouquet.

Shina leaned against the tombstone and mumbled something. She probably spoke another language, which I couldn't understand at all.

Originally, I wanted to eavesdrop and see if there was anything valuable. I had no choice but to step forward and say, "Hi."

Shina was stunned, raised her eyes and looked at me in surprise, "how can you be here?"

"I come to mourn William. In this world, there are fewer and fewer people who can remember him. Although I don't know him, I also know a lot about him. In my heart, I already regard him as an old friend I haven't seen for a long time." I put the bouquet in front of William's tombstone.

Other people's tombstone will be placed several bunches of flowers, William's tombstone is always only a few bunches, it is estimated that sina took them.

Now I have added this bunch of flowers. I hope this bunch of flowers can also represent Zhong Qing's heart. I hope William can feel Zhong Qing's guilt and helplessness towards him.

"Nowadays, few people can remember him. Friends and classmates will come to see him in the early years. In the twinkling of an eye, no matter how good a friend is, if he doesn't get in touch often, his friendship will fade, let alone a dead man." Shina pulled the corner of her lip, showing a touch of sneer, "but it's OK, without a lot of annoying people, as long as I remember him, it's enough."
