Chapter 79 The Man Who Was Struck by Lightning

When Shih Tzu fell into memory,

Yu Renjie asked, "Where do you sell large iron handle umbrellas?"

Xi Shi was taken aback for a moment: "What did you say?"

"It's the kind of big umbrella in the ward surnamed Qian,

longer than usual,

Do you know where it is sold? "

"I don't know,

What are you asking this for? "

"oh,

nothing. Yu Renjie said: "I see that umbrella was burnt by lightning,

Just now I suddenly thought,

Could it be that the handle of this umbrella is also made of iron? "

Everyone was not ready to change the topic, and it took a while before someone picked up the conversation. Cheng Bin asked, "Does the tip of that umbrella have a sharp point?"

Yu Renjie shrugged: "I don't know,

Didn't have time to take a closer look.At that time, I just felt that this umbrella was a bit abrupt, and it was different from ordinary ones. "

Xi Shi glanced at the two of them and said doubtfully, "Even if the handle of the umbrella is made of iron,

It also has sharp corners,

So what? "

Fat Stomach groaned slowly: "Your physics was taught by the physical education teacher! Iron is conductive, so the umbrellas sold on the market

Regardless of whether the ribs are made of stainless steel or not,

Umbrella handles are all plastic,

This will prevent electric shock during thunderstorms.It would be even more dangerous if there was a metal point on the umbrella tip,

Isn't it the same as a lightning rod?

Especially prone to lightning. "

Xi Shi and Xiao Mi said together,

Hao Jinyang looked at the two of them, not knowing what they were talking about.

"Do you want to go back and look at that umbrella?" Cheng Bin said.He always likes to give orders, but now he is asking Yu Renjie,

He was afraid that his body would be too tired.Moreover,

This is not their jurisdiction, they are here for vacation.

Yu Renjie didn't answer, but turned his face to Xi Shi.Xi Shi hesitated for a while, and said: "Don't go, let's go home for dinner, my parents should be almost burnt."

But when everyone was eating, Xi Shi seemed a little restless, not only that, she also disappeared from the dinner table for a while.After dinner, in the barren living room, she showed everyone a photo on her phone.

"I asked Lao Qian's mother to take this photo for me just now. The old lady doesn't know how to use a mobile phone, so it took me a long time to send it to me."

The background of the photo shoot is a hospital, half of the wall is painted white and half is painted green, and a broken long-handled umbrella is leaning against the white and green corner.Through the broken tarpaulin, you can see the slightly rusted umbrella ribs inside. The umbrella ribs are made of metal and extend to the umbrella handle. There is no plastic shell or coating on the outside.The handle of this long-handled umbrella is indeed made of iron.The umbrella tip facing the floor is also made of iron, longer and sharper than ordinary umbrella tips, like a bayonet for killing enemies.

Water on the ground, an iron umbrella handle, or a sharp umbrella tip cannot attract lightning alone, but when they gather together, they greatly increase the risk of lightning.

"This kind of umbrella won't be mass-produced," Cheng Bin mused, "Xi Shi, do you know where this style is sold?"

Xi Shi bit her lip and shook her head. Her father happened to pass by and told them, "There is an old man in the village next door. He can repair everything, including umbrellas. I think he can do it."

Xi Shi's father thought they were dealing with a big case, put the fruit plate on the table, and started licking his fingers to look through the phone book at home, trying to find out the old man's phone number for them.But Xi Shi waved his hand and sent his father back to the kitchen.After struggling on the sofa for a while, she grabbed the coat on the hanger and hurried out the door.She left the guests in her home without permission, making it an embarrassing evening for the teammates of the second team to spend with her family.

Lao Qian's mother complained on the phone that Sister Sishi was unreliable and went home alone, so Xi Shi went directly to Lao Qian's house and knocked on the door.It was Sister Sishi who came to open the door. Her youngest daughter was almost ten years old, but she still shyly hugged her waist, and called softly behind her: "Hello, Aunt Shi."

"Jia Jia is so good." Xi Shi patted her head and said to Si Shimei: "I have something to ask you, let's go into the room and talk alone."

Sister Sishi let out a hey, and turned her side to let her into the room.There was some sadness written on her face, but there was also a hint of joy. She has always liked Xi Shi very much.

After sending the two children back to the room, Si Shimei asked Xi Shi to sit down in the living room, but Xi Shi pointed to her room, and Si Shimei poured two cups of tea and took them into the bedroom.

As soon as the door was closed, Xi Shi said: "You didn't make it like this on purpose, did you?"

Si Shimei looked into her eyes, as if she was calm, and after a while, she asked, "Who else thinks so?"

As soon as this sentence came out, Xi Shi's heart became cold, and she didn't want to continue the conversation.But she still said vaguely and quickly: "I'm not the only one. You know, the umbrella... the iron handle, the pointed top, the rice transplanting, and the paddy fields... are all too coincidental. The umbrella was made by old Zhangtou or some blacksmith right?"

Si Shimei looked at her quietly with a pair of beautiful eyes, as if she was judging the current situation, but she still chose to believe her, maybe because she had no one else to trust.She nodded to her and said, "Old man Zhang did it, and he did it very well."

Xi Shi let out a long breath: "Why are you doing this!"

"I hate him so much," Sishimei said, "I'll be unhappy every day he doesn't die."

Xi Shi hurriedly covered her mouth: "But you will go to jail for doing this!"

"Why?" Si Shimei pulled her palm away: "He was struck by lightning, it was God who punished him, this is his life!"

"Hey...how do you..."

"I don't care even if I go to jail. I don't want to live anymore. Even if I get shot, it's my life. I admit it!"

Seeing her talking more and more extreme, Xi Shi was momentarily at a loss for words, so she picked up the teacup on the table and pecked lightly.

Si Shimei's tears flowed down without warning, Xi Shi almost thought that the steam in her cup had blinded her eyes.

"You don't know my suffering at all," said Si Shimei. "Just seeing his face makes me sick. He is as fat as a pig, with fat all over his body. Every time I share the bed with him, I feel sick." Nausea. Smelling the smell of oil and meat on his body, I didn’t want to eat meat for a long time.”

"I don't know about you... hey... I don't know..." When trying to comfort her, Xi Shi suddenly found that she was at a loss for words.

"The key is that he is not good, so he has never done a good thing. Since he became a village cadre, he has collected a lot of people's fat and people's anointing, and you don't know how others talk about us behind our backs. If I don't have the slightest ability, I don't even want to spend a penny on him!"

On this topic, Xi Shi still has something to talk about. She told her about her brother being blackmailed by him when he opened a small hotel.When she said this, she felt a little relaxed and a little guilty. In fact, she deliberately avoided more serious topics.Fortunately, Sishimei followed her words and told her more stories about Laoqian's evil deeds.While talking, the topic returned to herself, and she told her all about how the Qian family treated her harshly.

It was only then that Xi Shi realized that Sister Sishi was willing to admit the intentional murder in front of her. Perhaps it was not as simple as believing her.During the conversation, she mentioned the word "death" many times, and she often said that she hoped that the Qian family would die, or that she would rather die than compromise.When it came to the saddest part, Si Shimei admitted that she had committed suicide twice.

The first time was shortly after we got married.At that time, she had a high spirit and wanted to spread her wings and fly high, but she was trapped and became a prison bird with broken wings.Facing the cage, she would rather die a heroic death.She once tried to kill herself with a knife, but was discovered. Father Qian tied her to a chair for a whole week.He said that the family spent a lot of money to buy her, and she couldn't just die like this.So she started a hunger strike.

"But then I was so hungry, unbearably hungry, you can never understand what kind of desire it is to be hungry. At that time, I thought that as long as Lao Qian could give me a bun to eat, I would be willing to sleep with him."

Si Shimei was sobbing violently, her eyes were full of remorse and self-blame.That time, she didn't really die, but at the begging of old Qian, she ate the food he handed over, and obediently climbed onto her son's big bed under Qian's mother's rolling pin.After she was full, Sister Sishi wanted to die even more.

The second time she took action was when her son quarreled with her two years ago.The son yelled at her angrily, "Go to hell!"She rushed out into the yard and drank a whole bottle of pesticide.

"Everyone was terrified at the time and rushed me to the hospital. When I was lying on a stretcher, my mind was still clear. I said, after I die, burn me to ashes and send me back to my hometown, or send me to my hometown. Sprinkle it into the sea, anyway, I don't want to enter the grave of Lao Qian's family."

Si Shimei said so far, with some joy on her face: "When I got to the hospital, I suddenly died. I was a little scared, but I thought it would be fine if I went like this. The only thing I can't worry about is My son is naughty to death. My daughter is very good, I don't worry about her at all. But when I was about to die, I saw my son crying so hard by my bed, I felt sore in my heart. I didn't want to die. Then I rescued him."

Si Shimei said that her only hope in life was these two children, so when her son told her to die, she suddenly collapsed and felt that there was no point in living.And the older her son Fengfeng was, the more he looked like Old Qian, and her thoughts of wanting to die were no longer a day or two.It's just that the family forbids her to tell Xi Shi about her suicide, so she has never mentioned it to her until today's blatant moment.

"Later, people from the village came to persuade me, let me relax, don't think too much, it's better to live my own life well. I think it makes sense, I have lived all these years, for whom!" At this time Si Shimei's eyes shot out some hatred again: "I think, I have already committed suicide, and I still care about so much what to do!"

Later, Sister Si Shi began to let her children go, and started to be lazy about housework. When Lao Qian attacked her, she wanted to kill him.

"If he hadn't trapped me here, would I be in the situation I am now? I can't wait for him to be hit by a car as soon as he goes out, and struck to death by lightning as soon as he goes out on the street!"
