Chapter 19 You Without Fate Please be sure to forgive
Thinking of the experience during that period of time, Li Huatong was extremely remorseful. Maybe it's the harsh punishment of young girls who have no brains in real society.
About a month after getting married, Li Huatong found that his body had undergone some small changes. First, the menstrual period did not come on time, but before that it was extremely accurate. Then, eating greasy things starts to regurgitate and retch, and no matter how careful you are, your stomach and intestines always seem to be a little uncomfortable. Li Huatong probably knew that she was likely to be pregnant according to the common sense of life. The careful Xu Ruobin also thoughtfully urged her to go to the hospital for an examination.
Taking advantage of an opportunity to go out to run errands, Li Huatong went to Luochuan Central Hospital, and sure enough, she was pregnant, about forty days ago. Because she was still in an unstable period, the dedicated female doctor took the trouble to tell her many precautions, and she took them to heart. With shy joy, Li Huatong called and told Xu Ruobin the news, he was naturally very happy, and whispered to Li Huatong to be careful like this and be careful like that. Li Huatong responded one by one, but he was making fun of him for being too nervous.
When he returned home in the evening, Xu Ruobin pressed Li Huatong on the sofa and began to chatter again, he took Li Huatong's hand and said: "Xiaotong, listen to Sister Zhang of our unit, it is very hard for women to get pregnant, and I will do more things at home in the future, you must protect yourself!" Li Huatong thought he was verbose, and broke free to stand up. Xu Ruobin pressed her down again, and then said: "There is another important thing, Sister Zhang said that the family planning policy is very strict now, pregnancy certificate is required for pregnancy, and birth certificate is required for childbirth, you should go to the unit tomorrow to inquire quickly." Li Huatong responded as he stood up and prepared dinner.
For the first time, there was no TV on, two people sat on the bed, and the topic was always inseparable from the child. Xu Ruobin was half-lying next to Li Huatong, tilting his head, and kept guessing whether the child was a boy or a girl. He said seriously: "I heard that most of the people who have a sense of exercise and love to eat sour are boys. She likes to rest, likes to eat spicy food, mostly for girls. Xiaotong, do you say you like sour or spicy?" Li Huatong stroked his hair and said with a smile: "I can't eat anything now, I vomit whatever I eat." However, Ruobin, it is said that whether a boy or a girl is related to men, jealous fathers, most of them give birth to girls!" Xu Ruobin touched Li Huatong's hand, looked at Li Huatong and said, "That's good, I like girls." I love to be jealous, not only love to eat the old vinegar of Shanxi, but also love to eat Ms. Li Huatong's vinegar, then give me a beautiful little princess!" Li Huatong took off his restless hand, lowered his head and said quietly: "You are so beautiful, you are the eldest son in the family, and now you are implementing family planning, you can only give birth to one, if it is really a girl, I am afraid I will complain." Xu Ruobin hurriedly got up and coaxed Li Huatong and said: "That's not possible, it's a new society now, boys and girls are the same, don't worry, they can't be our home!" Li Huatong looked at him and said, "Really? You have to talk about it!" Xu Ruobin immediately raised his hand and pretended to swear: "I, Xu Ruobin, swear hereγγγγγγ" Li Huatong smiled and grabbed his raised hand, and said seriously: "Don't be funny, for me, boys and girls are the same, they are all my children, and I will treat him well." When Xu Ruobin heard this, he flickered his tongue and said, "What the hero sees is the same!" He suddenly remembered something, and said to Li Huatong: "Xiaotong, let's think about the child's name, this is a very important matter." Li Huatong replied: "Okay, let's give a girl's name, a boy's name, no matter the boy or girl, there will be a name." β
Xu Ruobin thought about it seriously, and he proudly told Li Huatong that the surname Xu is a multi-ethnic and multi-origin surname. It ranks 20th among the 100 surnames, accounting for about 0.56% of the total population of the country. There are words in his mouth;" Let's put girls first, think of girls' names first. It must be good-sounding, elegant, noble, and catchy to call. He even got out of bed and brought a dictionary and a hundred family names, and also brought a small notebook for writing, and said, "Xiaotong, let me think about it, you write it down, don't talk about it, it's in vain." Li Huatong followed him and picked up the pen. "I'm going to read it, Xu Qing, Xu Hui, Xu Lan, Xu Fei, Xu Qian, Xu Li, γγγγγγ" Li Huatong intercepted him and said, "It's all one word, it's all very good, but it's easy to repeat." Xu Ruobin thought for a while and felt that it was right, so he continued to read: "Xu Tingting, Xu Fangfei, Xu Yating, Xu Yulan, Xu γγγγγγ" Li Huatong smiled and said almost, it's time to see the boy's name. Xu Ruobin became more serious, and made a large list of boys' names. The two of them stayed up in the middle of the night, chose and chosen, picked and chosen, and finally decided that they gave birth to a daughter named Xu Li and a son named Xu Li. Whether it is Xu Li or Xu Li, the first character is Xu Ruobin's surname, and the second is the homonym of Li Huatong's surname Li.
The next day, Li Huatong went to the office as soon as he arrived at the unit. The deputy director of the office is named Wu Yunying, a female comrade in her 50s, and she is in charge of the family planning work of the unit. After listening to Li Huatong's situation, Director Wu said with a serious face: "According to the national policy, the pregnancy certificate must be handled in advance, and your situation does not meet the policy, and there is no way to apply for the certificate." With that, she turned around and looked for something in the filing cabinet. Li Huatong seemed to be startled by a thunderclap, and she was immediately stunned, she didn't know what to do. She didn't argue, she didn't know how to plead, she just stood there. Seeing that she still didn't understand, the deputy director continued: "Family planning is a basic national policy, you don't want to be stupid, if you don't do it, you will be expelled from public office, and the unit will follow and punish her!" Li Huatong understood at this time, the director meant that if you want to have children, you can't have children, you can't have children if you want to work, you can't have both fish and bears, for your own sake, and the unit, what to do, you should know. How can this be? Li Huatong has reached the age to get married, and when she gets married, of course she will have children, so why is there no one to remind her to apply for a pregnancy permit? Li Huatong was extremely angry and aggrieved in her heart, and tears could not help but burst out of her eyes, and she was like a wounded trapped beast, biting her lip tightly, looking open, and rushing out of the office without looking back.
She ran and ran, with no direction and no goal. She was angry, angry at her own stupidity, angry at the indifference and ruthlessness of the deputy director, and even angry at Xu Ruobin. She didn't know how to vent this anger, so she could only run desperately, running against the wind, until she was panting and standing by the Qing River, and she stopped. The cold wind blew, allowing tears to flow down. It seemed that everything was irreparable, and she leaned on the railing and looked at the calm river in front of her, and she wanted to shout a few times. However, she opened her mouth, but her voice could not make a sound. She touched her lower abdomen, and her heart hurt for a while, and she felt really desperate.
Without telling Xu Ruobin, Li Huatong calmly contacted a friend who worked in the hospital and made an appointment.
When he returned home in the evening, Xu Ruobin was just about to ask, but Li Huatong couldn't hold back any longer, and suddenly threw himself into his arms, hugged him and cried loudly. Xu Ruobin faintly felt that something was wrong, and hugged her and comforted her until she slowly calmed down. Listening to her intermittent crying, Xu Ruobin's face became more and more ugly. He suddenly stood up, rubbed his hands, walked around the room like a sleepy beast, and said excitedly: "How can this be?
Li Huatong knew in his heart that Xu Ruobin had no choice. He has always been a good boy, he only knows how to work, and never knows what a struggle is. That's it, that's it.
Without dinner, the two miserable young men had no choice but to comply. It was really cold that day, the two of them were lying on the bed in a hug, Li Huatong was still crying, Xu Ruobin hugged her tightly and helped her wipe away her tears over and over again. The corners of his eyes gradually moistened.
That Saturday afternoon, Li Huatong and Xu Ruobin went to the hospital as agreed.
Li Huatong insisted that Xu Ruobin wait outside and not allow him to enter the operating room. She knows that even if the relationship is with a lover, it is her own battle, and she needs to be strong and have the courage to face it alone.
She will never forget that operation for the rest of her life. The cold, narrow cot and the cold look at the terrifying instruments seemed to make her tremble with fear. My friend has always been by my side, holding his hand to comfort her, cheering her up, and always saying, "It's okay for a while, just endure it for a while." The piercing pain made her teeth clench, and the indescribable pain filled her heart with despair and helplessness. She shouted loudly in her heart: "Li Huatong, be brave! be brave!" But in the end, she couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes and kept flowing out.
She tugged at her friend's arm tightly, stiff and seemingly resisting something. The experienced doctor, afraid that she was too nervous, kept chatting with her: "It'll be fine in a while, relax a little." The more nervous you are, the more it hurts. Relax, okay, relax, it'll be fine for a while!"
She really doesn't like pain, and no one likes pain. Lying on the operating table, she hated herself, hated herself for being too stupid in handling this matter, hated herself for being too sensitive to pain, hated herself for not being strong and brave enough. Hate yourself, then let God punish yourself, and let the storm come more violently. Li Huatong feels like a fish on a cutting board, a human knife, what can she do? What can she do?
Ten minutes is like a long century. The doctor hung up the liquid on her, gave her a few precautions, and left. Li Huatong lay with his eyes closed, exhausted, languishing, and his face full of vicissitudes. Xu Ruobin looked distressed, and silently held Li Huatong's hand and stayed quietly by the bedside.
It was their first child, and I don't know if it was a boy or a girl, but for such an inexplicable reason, I regretfully sent her away.
