Volume 1 Chapter 52 Staying at the Loving Family
Three kilometers was not a big problem for Chen Ziang before, but it was a long time for Chen Ziang now, she couldn't remember how many miles she had walked, her body was heavy, and the soles of her feet hurt.
Maybe she was in a hurry, she felt that her eyes were dazzled, her eyes were full of stars, she was carrying a bag on her back, her hands were holding her stomach, she was standing helplessly on the streets of Beijing, with nowhere to go, tears were rolling in her eyes, and the pride and ambition of running away from home seemed so small at this moment.
Looking at the gray sky, there are not many people in the streets in the afternoon shortly after the New Year, the sky is covered with thin snowflakes, the whole city is shrouded in a fog, and the distant buildings are faint, and there are occasional dim lights emitted.
Thinking of the swaggering appearance of Zhang Han's mother and Zhang Han's fiancΓ©e, she straightened her waist again and walked forward hard.
The road is so long, longer than her more than 20 years of life, when Chen Ziang saw a love hotel not far away, her heart warmed, tears came out of the frame, she found a place to stay.
She stumbled to the door of the hotel, the door was hidden, the light inside was a little dim, Chen Ziang pushed the door open and walked in: "Boss, is there still a room?"
The person sitting at the front desk looked up, and it was a face in his fifties, chubby, with curly hair.
"Is there a person?
"A person, with an ID card. β
"Stay for one night?"
"How much money does it cost to stay for one night, but how much money does it cost to stay for a long time?" Chen Ziang wanted to know the conditions of accommodation, she had to plan to spend money, and when she left home, her brothers and sisters wanted to give her money, but she refused.
She was on her own, and besides, she was already old, how could she still spend their money.
"Stay 50 a night, you can get a discount if you stay for a long time, see how long you stay?"
"Shall I stay for 10 nights first, how much will it cost for 10 nights?"
"40 for 10 nights. β
"30, I don't need much by myself, I will go out during the day, but I will come back at night for a night. Chan said she would go out to look for work during the day.
"35, 35, you stay for 10 nights, if you can't do it, you go to another house. β
Chen Ziang wanted to find a cheaper place again, but she really couldn't walk, her stomach was a little uncomfortable, she held her stomach with her hand, and the woman behind the bar stood up.
"Pregnant?"
"Hmm. β
"If you're tired, just sit there and rest, and I'll pour you a glass of water first." The woman came out of the bar and brought a book of water from the kettle for Chen Ziang, Chen Ziang was really tired, she sat on the chair next to her, took the water handed to her by the woman, blew it, and sipped it a little.
"Thank you!" The water was clear and sweet, moisturizing her dry lips and dry throat, and her body was also warm.
"How many months?" the woman asked, looking at her
"It's been more than four months. Chan knew that the woman could see that she was pregnant.
"Came out to find relatives?"
"Looking for a job. Because of the woman's glass of water, Chen Ziang was less wary.
"30, I'll open you a room, but the windows are too small and a little dark. When the woman heard that Chen Ziang had come out to look for a job, her heart softened, so she agreed to Chen Ziang's request.
"Okay, thank you, eldest sister!" Chen Ziang was overjoyed, rested for a while, checked in for surgery, and the woman led Chen Ziang to the second floor.
When I opened the door, the room was not very small and dark as the woman said, but bright.
"Eldest sister, thank you, the house is really good, so bright. Chen Ziang was a little happy, and looked at the woman and thanked her happily.
"I've got a good light for you. If something calls me. Then the woman turned and went downstairs.
"What kind of job did you come out of four months pregnant? Who would want a pregnant woman? It doesn't look very old, I guess there has been a change in the family, otherwise I wouldn't have come out, the girl looks like a good girl, hey!" the woman muttered to herself.
Chen Ziang threw down her backpack, got some hot water, and scrubbed it beautifully, she was already very tired, and fell asleep comfortably after washing.
Chen Ziang was woken up by her own hunger, and when she woke up, she found herself in a strange room, and she was slightly flustered, only to know that she had arrived in Beijing, she smiled bitterly, turned over, and there were already thousands of lights outside.
She gave herself another glass of water, and drank it in small sips, in order to dilute the feeling of hunger, but the more she drank the boiled water, the more hungry she became, she got up and searched in the bag, and when she left home, the seventh sister-in-law filled her with some fried dumplings and steamed buns for the New Year, and the things to eat on the train were too expensive.
She took out all the things in the bag, put them away in turn, and only found half a steamed bun, a crispy dumpling, she soaked the steamed bun in boiling water, and ate the crispy dumplings in small bites, the feeling of hunger disappeared, but she was still very hungry.
She is reluctant to go out to eat, she doesn't have much money in her hand, she is not familiar with life in Beijing, she doesn't dare to spend money indiscriminately, she has to go out for a walk tomorrow to see if there is a suitable job, and then see if there is a suitable house, it is not okay to always live in a hotel, she has to rent a house, she will have a child in a few months.
Now it can only be a step at a time, outside the window is the brilliantly lit strange Beijing Street, Chen Ziang beat his feet that were a little tired from walking, thinking about his parents at home, and felt a little sad in his heart.
My parents were old, and I raised them, and they flew away one by one.
Before leaving, the mother was reluctant to hold Chen Ziang's hand, and tears flowed for a long time.
"Ziang, it's my parents who are incapable, if my parents are capable, my son will not suffer such grievances. β
Parents also knew that Chen Ziang and Zhang Han had broken up due to family reasons, they knew that Chen Ziang had feelings for Zhang Han, and they could usually see the feelings of the two young people, but because of their family, the two children could not walk together.
Originally, Chen Ziang was full of guilt when he went to school, and his heart was even more sad.
"Mom, the sky is free to fly, the sea is wide and the fish is jumping, you can rest assured, your daughter and I will definitely live well, when the time comes, I will buy a big house in the city, take you and my dad to me, and serve you two well, you and my dad will wait." β
Chen Ziang watched his mother cry, and he was very reluctant, his parents were getting older and older, and he hoped that they could let her repay her kindness to her.
Chen Ziang remembered what he said to his mother before leaving, clenched his fists, and said to himself: "Chen Ziang, come on, you will definitely be able to do it!"
It's not the first time she has gone out, but it's the first time she's gone out of the door so far alone, unaccompanied, unfamiliar, but thinking of the doorman uncle and the eldest sister just now, a trace of warmth crossed her heart.
In fact, this world is full of warmth, especially some inconspicuous little people, their every gesture and smile are full of kindness.
They always inadvertently radiate their meager light, making this world more beautiful and harmonious, kinder and more beautiful.
