Chapter 1: Betrayal

Next Chapter

"Xiaoxi, accompany my mother to buy vegetables, my father is coming back today. A slightly haggard middle-aged woman said to a little girl.

The little girl's name is Han Xi, she is about five years old, and she has big eyes at a young age.

Not at all as naughty as children of the same age, obediently staying by their mother's side, holding their mother's left hand with their right hand.

He was wearing a patched single coat, and his face was flushed.

The girl looked out the window at the snowflakes, which were falling on the trees, on the grass, on the small bungalow outside the house.

"Xiaoxi, did you hear your mother talk to you?" was about to make a gesture to hit the little girl, but heard the little girl say.

"Is Dad really coming back today? he won't let Xi'er wait for him to come back like he did last time. The little girl trembled a little as she spoke, and her eyes were full of tears.

"Last time, Dad told Xi'er that he would go home, but Dad still broke his promise and didn't come back. Xiaoxi was aggrieved, looking out the window at the only path leading to her house.

The road in front of me is now covered in endless snow.

Xiao Xi's face couldn't help but become sad, "Dad's way home is blocked, what can I do? What should I do? Dad can't see the way, how can I come back?"

Xiaoxi began to cry as she spoke, very sad, and kept looking at the path outside the window.

Suddenly, "Mommy, Mommy, why don't we go shovel the snow out of the road so Daddy can see the way home." ”

The little mouth pouted, "Mom, let's go together, bring the shovel at home." ”

Mother looked at Xiaoxi, and her heart was also bitter.

Li Mei is Han Xi's mother, and Han Xi is father met through the introduction of his parents.

Li Mei has been farming in the countryside and has little education, and Han Xi's father, Han Zhong, is a well-known engineer.

Han Xi's father has been away all the year round, running around, working to support the family.

In the eyes of the villagers in the village, the family is undoubtedly happy, there is a dragon in the family, and an engineer has a lot of wealth.

But they didn't know the most realistic situation in Han Xi's family, although Han Xi's father was indeed an engineer, he hadn't sent a penny home for several years.

There was only a phone call during the Chinese New Year, the project had an accident, and I couldn't come back this year, so I had to rush the project. Otherwise, if you can't get the money, what will happen to Xiaoxi's living expenses, and what will happen to the family's expenses?

is such a real problem, money, in front of Han Xi's home and Han Xi's father, has become a cushion.

"Xi'er is good, you see it's so cold outside, Xi'er will be frozen when she goes out, and the family doesn't have much savings this year, so she can't afford to buy a new padded jacket for Xi'er. Xi'er, you won't blame your mother, will you?"

Mother looked at Han Xi with distress in her eyes, and stretched out her hands to warm Han Xi's cheeks.

"How can Xi'er blame her mother, Xi'er knows that her mother works in the fields every day and is very tired, Xi'er knows that her mother loves Xi'er, and Xi'er is not cold. Xi'er stood on tiptoe and begged for her mother's embrace.

Waiting for her mother to hug her, Xi'er kissed her mother, "Mom, let's go shovel snow together." ”

The mother left tears again, then put Xi'er down and wiped her tears with her hands.

took Han Xi's little hand, took the shovel at home, and was about to go out.

The roar outside the door came into the room, and Han Xi hurriedly ran to the window to look, "Dad is back, Dad is back," Han Xi couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart and ran out of the door.

"Xi'er, don't run around, wait for Mom," after speaking, she also followed Han Xi to welcome her father home.

"Dad, Dad," Xi'er ran out directly on a pair of slippers.

Seeing the middle-aged man pounce directly, at this moment, a gorgeously dressed woman got out of the car.

Then Han Xi's father also got out of the car, and Han Xi's father did not open his arms to greet his daughter.

At this time, Han Xi's mother Li Mei came over, looking at this scene, she was a little puzzled, and she didn't notice what was coming.

"Xi'er, come here, Dad and the beautiful aunt are coming to our house, go and clean up at home. Li Mei said to Han Xi.

And Han Xi's father didn't say a word, and followed Han Xi to the house, and the little Han Xi looked at the aunt in a mink coat.

There was a little doubt in her eyes, how could this beautiful aunt get out of the same car as her father.

And how did the beautiful aunt look at her look at her felt weird, this first impression left a deep impression in Han Xi's heart.

So much so that she still felt panicked when she recalled this past later.

When they arrived at home, without waiting for Han Xi and Li Mei to pack up their belongings, the beautiful aunt said directly, "Guozhong, why don't you say it, do you have to ask me to say it?"

Han Xi's father directly changed his face, "Let me think about it, what to say, no matter how I say that I am also Xi'er's father, what do you want me to say in front of the child?"

"Guozhong, I don't care what you say, anyway, this matter must be said today, and your relationship must be concluded today. ”

I'll be waiting for you in the car, "What a place, it's so rotten, and the smell of chicken and duck dung." After saying that, he turned around and left.

Xiaoxi watched the beautiful aunt leave, and heard what they said, with puzzlement in her eyes.

"Xiaoxi, you go back to the room, I have something to say with my mother," Han Xi was very obedient and went back to the room.

But Han Xi was lying by the door, listening to his parents, thinking that his parents were going to whisper.

At this time, Han Xi's father took out a document from his briefcase, "Xiaomei, come here, I have something to tell you." ”

Han Xi's mother was cooking at home when she heard her husband's voice and hurriedly ran out.

"Xiaomei, sign this document, we will not be a family from now on. ”

"Brother Zhong, what are you talking about? Who is not a family with whom, and what is this document?" Li Mei's eyes showed puzzlement, but he seemed to think of something.

"I'm no longer a family with you, Li Mei and Xiaoxi, this is a divorce agreement, hurry up and sign it." I'm about to be the son-in-law of a rich daughter. ”

"I don't want to stay with a village woman like you in this poor place for the rest of my life. ”

"In the future, I will take out a sum of money every month to provide for the living expenses of the two of you, hurry up and sign it, I still have something to do. ”

Han Xi's father directly finished all the words at once, without taking into account Li Mei's mood at all.

"Brother Zhong, why is this? Do you want to abandon our mother and daughter for the sake of coveting glory and wealth?" Li Mei knelt directly on the ground, begging not to abandon them.

Although Han Xi is young, she doesn't know anything, and now she finally understands why the beautiful aunt got out of the car with her father.

She wished she hadn't heard what her father had said, that his father hadn't returned.

In this way, she may never know, and she will always have a glimmer of expectation, but now she has no glimmer of hope in her heart.

This man made her feel familiar and strange at the same time.
