“Until later, I ran into her in the bamboo forest. Strictly speaking, she was waiting in the bamboo forest, she was waiting for me. She was covered in wounds and told me that she couldn't survive in the mountains and asked me to take her away. I just found it funny. I wasn't even sure if I could leave by myself, so how could I take him away? So I rejected her. 』
"After working for two years, I went to high school. I lived in the school dormitory most of the time and only went back home during the Chinese New Year. When I went home for the Chinese New Year in my second year of high school, I found Fang Qing living in my house, in my room.
My father just said a few simple words, saying that the marriage my grandmother arranged for me was because the girl was too old and was kicked out by her family, so she came to our house with only the clothes on. Our family is not well off, so we won’t have a wedding. Let me live a good life with her. 』
"I was shocked and angry, and angrily drove her away. She really left that night, but she couldn't go back to her own home. She stayed under my roof for the whole night. It was winter, and when she was found in the morning, she was almost frozen to death. 』
"My father was afraid that someone might die, so he beat me severely at the instigation of my stepmother. My relationship with my stepmother has always been bad, but what she said that day did make some sense. She said Fang Qing's family wouldn't let her go back, and if I drove her away I would be forcing her to die. Looking at her pale face, I felt soft-hearted again. We are all poor people. She has no choice. Why should I make things difficult for her? 』
"I didn't chase her away again, and I promised to take her away from here if I had the chance. But I won't marry her. I told her how wonderful the world outside is. When she gets out there, she can start a new life and meet someone she likes. The country promotes free love, so she can find someone she likes and marry him. 』
"She and Jianguo rescued me that day, and she prepared dry food and clothes for me to leave. The day I left, she insisted on sending me down the mountain, and I agreed. When we parted, she talked to me a lot. She said how pitiful she was in her parents' home and that her parents were biased towards her and treated her like a non-human being. It was not easy to go back to my mother's house. I had a stepmother who was not nice to me and was even worse to her. 』
"She asked me if I would come back for the New Year. I didn't answer her and she started crying. She said she would wait for me until I came back for the New Year, and if I didn’t come back for the New Year, she would jump off a cliff. Her thought at the time was probably that if I couldn't go back for the New Year, I would be abandoning her and running away. 』
"Our relationship in the past three years was not very good, but we treated each other with respect. I was actually doing fine at school. My family couldn't exploit me, so they took out their anger on her. When I realized this, I knew I couldn't refuse her because I couldn't implicate an innocent person. 』
"I promised her that I would come back and take her away in the future. Only then did she stop crying. 』
"Student life is great. I got to know a lot of classmates. Their growing environment is completely different from mine. I envy them a lot. But the person I have the best relationship with has always been my high school classmate Lu Jiangting. 』
From here on, the protagonist of the story became Lu Jiangting, and the location also moved to the school.
"After I ran away from home, I went to find Lu Jiangting, and it was he who asked his parents to buy an extra ticket. His family was wealthy, but after he asked, his parents agreed immediately and borrowed some money from others.
If it weren't for them, I wouldn't even have the chance to go to college. I am very grateful to their family, and at the same time, I envy Lu Jiangting very much. Although his parents came from a poor family, they gave him all the love they could. 』
"Of course, Lu Jiangting is a very good person. He sympathized with my situation and took good care of me. When I was in high school, I would go back to his house on those days when I couldn’t go home.
He is the only one who knows what’s going on in my family, and I only talk to him. I probably just didn't fit in with this world. After I arrived at school, I wasn't happy for long before I started to feel sad again. I couldn't fit in with them, and even though I tried very hard, it didn't work. 』
Seeing this, Fu Huaiyi and Yi Yunshuo looked up at the doctor.
Yi Yunshuo said, "Everything is starting to get better, why is he still sad?"
Director Huang sighed and said, "The human heart is very fragile. Years of repression have made him lose hope of survival. As early as when he was locked in the food cave, he had the idea of suicide. If his brother had gone a day later, he might not have survived."
"The part about the cave is not written."
"But there is an ellipsis. Maybe it was too painful and he didn't want to write it out."
All right.
"So Wang Jianguo saved his life?"
"I don't know what happened between them. Maybe. Please continue reading."
The two continued to read.
"Life in school is so good. Clothes are free, quilts and mats are free, daily necessities are free, meals are free, and we provide enough food. It was the first time I wore clothes without patches, covered myself with a soft quilt, and slept on a complete mat. It was the first time that I could eat as much as I wanted, until I was full, and there was meat. But I always wonder, do people like me deserve to live such a good life? 』
The two of them gasped.
Director Huang said, "You see, in his spiritual world, although school life is good, his mood may not be good."
Fu Huaiyi said: "Being able to see the good things means that his sky has color, and it has finally become so gray."
“Yes, although he still has big emotional problems, he has begun to change. Mental illness is not as simple as a cut on the body. It cannot be seen or touched, but it is real.
It is very difficult to cure it. Changing the environment alone is not enough. People around him must work together, and he cannot be stimulated during the healing period. But his situation...”
Director Huang shook his head helplessly, "Except for that friend named Lu, there seems to be no one I can confide in."
Fu Huaiyi and Yi Yunshuo didn't know what to say for a moment.
Yi Yunshuo said: "I didn't know he was like this at the time. I just thought he was just like that and didn't like to talk."
At that time, they were all boys under 20 years old, with thick nerves. How could they think so much?
Because Wang Jianjun worked for two years before going to high school, and he started school late, he was older than all of them.
He acted more like an adult in front of them.
Sometimes they also thought that Wang Jianjun didn’t talk to them because he didn’t want to play with them, a group of kids.
Director Huang motioned for them to continue reading.
The medical records left by Wang Jianjun were quite thick. They started by reading the records on Wang Jianguo. In fact, there were several pages before that, recording his family, father, stepmother, grandmother, and his childhood in the village.
