we are not twins

Arriving at the farmer's market early in the morning, Zuo Xiaoxiao couldn't help inhaling the air mixed with various smells in his nostrils.

I never realized that the vegetable market in the morning is so lively and lively. Every tomato, every potato, every green onion, and every piece of pork is as cute as a model in a gouache painting.Today, there are a lot of people buying vegetables and hoarding food in large and small bags, because there will be nothing to buy until the first day of the new year tomorrow.Zuo Xiaoxiao was clutching a hundred yuan, thinking about what to eat for tonight's New Year's Eve dinner.

A gust of cold wind gushed into his collar, making him shiver.Let's have a hot pot, it will feel like the Chinese New Year when it is hot.So I bought beef balls, white radish, yuba, winter melon, fungus and other ingredients, and killed a fat grass carp.

Zuo Fuqiang is on the day shift today, and he won't be home until after seven o'clock, just in time for the New Year's Eve dinner.While chopping vegetables, Zuo Xiaoxiao listened to the cheerful singing on the TV, the days of inexplicable confidence seemed to be back.He was going to find Ah Chao to play games all night after the New Year's Eve dinner.

At nine o'clock, Zuo Fuqiang didn't come home.

Eleven o'clock, still haven't come home.

At 12:30, Ma Pingchuan, smelling of beer, knocked on the door of the rental house: "Follow me quickly."

"where to?"

"Hospital."

Zuo Fuqiang was hit on the waist by a dumbbell falling from a high altitude. The results of the X-ray film came out, the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th lumbar vertebrae were fractured on the right side, and the third lumbar vertebrae was comminuted.The next afternoon, his colleagues from the property management company and the owner of the falling object all came to the hospital. Everyone negotiated smoothly. Zuo Xiaoxiao knew that the surgery fee and lost work fee were all paid without worrying about it. It was a misfortune Fortunately.

On the Lantern Festival not long after, the sound of firecrackers can still be heard in the air.He sat in Ah Chao's shop, rubbing glutinous rice balls until his hands were covered with black sesame seeds, and he didn't realize it until he heard his friend's voice seemed to come from a distant valley, and he suddenly came back to his senses.

"What?"

"Are you still going to school?"

"Well... it should be, otherwise how can I pay his tuition fee in the future, 13."

"What about Uncle?" Ah Chao sighed, "I told you, don't be angry, I'm afraid Uncle won't be able to go to work in the future."

"I know."

"Why don't you ask that person to borrow some more?"

"Wang Mengqi?" Zuo Xiaoxiao slowly shook his head, "He's not a bank, he wants to support my whole family besides sponsoring me to go to school? Impossible."

Right.A Chao didn't speak.

The day before the start of school, Zuo Xiaoxiao found a part-time job to help people make websites after A Chao's simple training and the knowledge he learned in the ICT course, and he was billed by the piece.He came to Shenzhen International Communications Exchange by car with his luggage.A row of luxury cars lined up at the school gate, and the smiling faces of the students melted away the cold spring time, but they couldn't melt his heavy psychological burden.

Especially in the face of club activities every weekend, it is even more depressing.

"Let's go to the Promised Land on Saturday morning to visit children with cerebral palsy and mental disabilities." On this day, Wang Mengqi made a strategic arrangement.

"Sorry, I can't go this week."

"Last week you had to study for homework, last week you had an upset stomach, what happened this week?"

"Nothing, I don't want to go."

"Go ahead, it's easy for children to like you." Wang Mengqi said, "I also signed up for you."

Having said all of this, Zuo Xiaoxiao decided to work on the website overnight after participating in the event.

The temperature on Saturday was very comfortable. Under the leadership of a priest, a dozen middle school students walked through the simple and bright Protestant church to the welfare institution "Promised Land" behind it.They brought sugar, milk, rice crackers, and smiles and hugs.

On the subway home, Wang Mengqi kept his head buried in his cell phone, until the rest of the students got out of the car, and then he noticed that Zuo Xiaoxiao was leaning against the pillar with a livid face.

"Come and sit." Wang Mengqi pointed to the empty seat beside him.

Zuo Xiaoxiao sat down.

"Did you say something to Xu Han with a smile?"

Xu Hanxiao is one of the founders of VOL, she is also here today.Zuo Xiaoxiao did talk quietly with her for a while, at this moment his surprise and embarrassment were clearly written on his face.

Wang Mengqi pretended not to see it, shrugged: "Why didn't you tell me first?"

"You didn't organize street charity performances, and you couldn't raise money for my family."

"What's the matter with your family?" Wang Mengqi asked, "Xu Han said with a smile that you didn't speak clearly, and she didn't understand what happened, so I just listen to you and ask them. After the rescue project they are working on is over, they will go to the next door." Can one help you raise donations for your father? But she is embarrassed to tell you that their current rescue targets are all designated by the Charity Federation and cannot be arranged at will."

"Oh."

"Tell me about it and see if I can help."

Zuo Xiaoxiao lowered his head, twitched for a while, and then lowered his voice and gave an overview of the family situation. He didn't mention that the lame grandfather came from the countryside to take care of his father. will see the bottom.

Wang Mengqi said with some dissatisfaction: "I just wondered why you were so distraught all day? How can you hide this kind of thing? Can you bear it alone?"

Zuo Xiaoxiaohong focused her eyes: "What if you don't carry it, this is fate."

"My dad has a foundation to help medical patients, leave this to me, don't tell anyone else."
