Chapter 307 Butterfly: Rains Fall During the Qingming Festival (1)
On the last working day before Qingming Festival, the sun was so hot that the leaves of the trees were wilting.
I, Wang Defa, am now a butterfly emerging from its cocoon.
A little butterfly, all wet, with wings on its back so soft and so weak that it would die if touched.
I stayed where I was, waiting for the blood to fill up and my wings to become stretched and strong.
During this time, I couldn't fly and had no strength to move.
The air was filled with the smell of rotten fish and shrimp, which became stronger as the wind blew...
~(+﹏+)~
Well, it's so addictive.
It's strange. This place is close to a cemetery and there are no rivers, lakes or seas. Where does the smell of rotten fish and shrimp come from? !
It wasn't until two hours later that I was finally able to flap my wings and fly.
When I got further away, I realized that the scent came from the flowers above my head.
Municipal authorities vigorously promote the planting of heather as a landscape tree.
yue……
No, we have to stay further away.
The clusters of white flowers that almost covered the entire tree canopy looked beautiful only when they were hidden at a safe distance.
I heard that the heather tree has another name, called acacia tree.
Who wants the lovesickness that smells like rotten fish and shrimp?
(? _ ?)
At the same time, at a crossroads in the city.
The sprinkler truck had just finished its operation and the driver was humming a tune, waiting to drive the truck back to the unit so he could have a holiday.
Just as the green light for turning left flashed and began to count down, he stepped on the accelerator and caught up with the car in front without looking at the right rearview mirror.
On the slippery road behind, a skidding electric three-wheeler couldn't stop its momentum. The more it braked, the more the tires twisted.
The cyclist couldn't stop the bike and actually tried to use the foot brake.
[Ah——I am going to die, riding so fast! Stop, stop, stop quickly! ]
[Squeak——]
The old lady on the zebra crossing took several steps back, but unfortunately she was hit by a tricycle.
Coincidentally, the man riding the electric tricycle also had white hair, and on his head was a very old red helmet used on construction sites.
The tricycle fell to the ground almost at the same time as the old lady.
The man in the car was skinny, and when he flew out and landed, his elbow made a teeth-grinding sound of breaking bones.
【ah--】
Car accident, two elderly people lying on the ground.
Many passers-by saw it. They were stunned for a second, then swarmed over, but no one dared to help.
The old lady was lying on the ground, waiting for the perpetrator to come and help her up, but she waited until her back was cold and there was no sign of him...
The ground was soaked with water from a sprinkler truck two or three minutes ago, and there was even water accumulation near the curb.
The old lady loves to look coquettish, so she took advantage of the good weather and wore a white dress with a rectangular scarf with small floral patterns.
【hiss……】
The old lady sat up suddenly, which scared several people around her. A girl who was calling the police almost dropped her phone because she didn't hold it firmly.
[Oh, old lady, are you okay?! ]
The old lady nervously pulled the scarf around her neck, splashing it with mud spots, making it look like a rag.
She had a sad face and a pouty mouth.
[I have something to do. I am so busy!!!]
On the other side, the electric three-wheeler flipped over completely, and the front and rear wheels had not stopped turning. The man who was originally sitting on the car was thrown more than one meter away, kicking his legs and feet on the ground, looking very uncomfortable and painful.
A boy in a high school uniform rushed forward without saying a word. If anyone paid attention, they could see a Band-Aid on the back of his hand. It was obvious that he had just finished an infusion and was sick.
[Mom, why are you pulling me? ]
[You are so stupid. You are only a teenager. What if you are blackmailed? The little money we have at home is not enough to support two elderly people!]
It’s not the young mother’s fault for being overly cautious. In recent years, there have been many cases of good people not getting rewarded, and everyone is afraid.
[Oh, Mom, there is a surveillance camera overhead. The grandpa over there is seriously injured and bleeding. If we ignore him, what if the police arrive too late and he dies?! ]
[Oh my goodness, kid, you have a really good heart. Children should not mind what they say!]
Someone else looked up at the surveillance camera and wanted to help, but was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he heard the boy's words.
Five minutes later, the traffic police finally arrived.
Seeing the victim who had stood up and was covered in dirt as if nothing had happened, and the perpetrator who was lying on the ground with blood all over his upper body and no one dared to move, he felt a little overwhelmed.
[Uncle, uncle? Are you conscious? What's your family's phone number? I'll help contact them to accompany you to the hospital, uncle? ! ]
The old man was lying on his back on the ground, his lips were pale and his face was colorless. His left hand was broken and he couldn't move it. He reached into his pocket with his right hand and took out his cell phone, ID and money.
[Here, I have no family anymore, no more...]
The traffic police took the ID: Deng Zhonghai, born in 1968, from Anhui Province.
Traffic police: You are only 56 years old...how come you are so old?
There were three policemen traveling with her, and one of them went to ask about the old lady's condition.
In comparison, the perpetrator is much more miserable than the victim.
The traffic police took photos of the scene and two people drove the two elderly people to the hospital.
As for the electric tricycle, the remaining young traffic policeman called on everyone to help straighten it and drive it back to the police station.
The doctor's examination results showed that Deng Zhonghai had a fractured left hand, multiple soft tissue contusions, and a mild concussion, and had to be hospitalized.
The old lady was plump and her body was not even scratched, but her clothes were dirty and she was a little frightened.
Deng Zhonghai took a look at the money he handed to the police, his lips trembled, and he still couldn't get over the hurdle of conscience in his heart.
[Big sister, I'm sorry, I... I really don't have much money, I'll give you two hundred to change your clothes! ]
The old lady was originally angry because the accident delayed her date with her old sisters, but after the examination, she found that nothing was wrong, so her anger subsided.
She waved her hands repeatedly.
[No, no, you didn't mean to do that. That place is slippery. Oh, we are both unlucky. You must go slower next time. You are not young anymore... Also, I am eleven years older than you. You should just call me elder sister!]
When the traffic police heard this, he almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
The old lady is still very clear-headed. What woman doesn't like to be called young...
[Uh, big sister, you should take it. If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have fallen. ]
The traffic policeman took out two hundred yuan and stuffed it directly into the old lady's hand.
The old lady took the money and left. The doctor arranged a ward and surgery for her.
The money was not enough, so the traffic policeman sighed and paid for it himself.
Deng Zhonghai told him the password of his WeChat wallet on his mobile phone. When he opened it, there was more than 2,000 yuan in it, and 30,000 yuan was paid in advance for the surgery.
The tricycle was filled with neatly stacked cardboard boxes, and it was obvious that Deng Zhonghai had no money.
[Uncle, do you have insurance? ]
[Ah? Yes, my husband bought me accident insurance. I paid for 27 years and the insurance lasts for years. Including this year, I can still get years of insurance.]
The traffic policeman gave a thumbs up and praised me.
[That's great. By the way, uncle, do you want to ask your wife to come to the hospital? You need someone to take care of you after the operation.]
Deng Zhonghai's eyes dimmed.
[She lives in the cemetery at the west end of the city.]
He is afraid that he will not be able to make it to Qingming Festival tomorrow.
