Chapter 67
The city where Wei Siming is in belongs to the first ladder in the third line, one ladder higher than the city where we live, Garfield is always willing to believe that Wei Siming insists on choosing to live in this crowded city just because of its prosperity. After all, the wedding house they had taken a fancy to and bought was located in the business circle in the center of the city.
But is that really the case?
Apparently not.
Wei Siming's original entrance examination belonged to the unified recruitment of the Municipal Education Bureau. After he got in, he was assigned to teach at the Municipal No. 1 High School, which was the best high school in the city. For this result, at first, Garfield decided that he had taken shit luck, but then she finally understood that all shit luck would not appear out of thin air, and it would not really be dog shit. It's just that he has an uncle who has a prosperous official fortune.
Staying in this city to settle down, marrying a wife and having children is not so much because of its prosperity and liveliness, but because of the careful arrangement of his uncle.
Some things, when you don't explain them thoroughly, you are a myopic patient who takes off your glasses and looks at the world, and you see flowers in the fog and are hazy; once you say it thoroughly, there are countless kinds of reverie that make your head be squeezed by countless possibilities.
For example, why not ask your uncle for help in solving the problem of separation between husband and wife?
If there is no separation, the marriage will not be just a marriage, it may be a family of four, a family of five, or at least a family of three. In the face of the family, it is no longer a husband and wife, but parents, and once a person becomes a parent, it will be easier to compromise and make changes for the sake of their children.
Of course, it is not excluded that in order to keep the original intention, everything is business as usual.
Who knows?
When we arrived at our destination, it was already past seven o'clock in the evening, except for the more than forty minutes spent on dinner, and on this day, I hardly left the means of transportation, and had a very tiring journey.
But not all of my tiredness comes from this, and the bigger reason is that until now, Jiang Beisheng has not made a single phone call or message.
Could it be that the person who can entrust the secret does not deserve to have a piggyback with warm care?
"It's here. ”
Garfield slapped me hard, and I snapped back to my senses and got out of the car to pick up my luggage.
Taking the elevator from the underground parking lot to the 25th floor, stopping and stopping along the way, people kept coming in and people coming out, Garfield suddenly laughed, leaned into my ear and whispered: "Do you see this elevator coming in and out, doesn't it look like this world that is always changing due to birth, old age, sickness and death?"
I smiled at the corner of my mouth: "Sort of." ”
When people reach middle age, their feelings about life and death are like the desire for rock sugar gourds when they were children, and they have the same nature.
After getting out of the elevator, turn left and there is the home shared by Garfield and Wei Siming.
Before that, I had been here once, on the third day after they got married.
I was supposed to appear at their wedding as a bridesmaid, but because of Garlic's malicious troubles, I had to embark on a business trip.
In the face of a hierarchical system, not only you are a person, but also your personal relationships are inferior.
I shook my head, and took advantage of the gap between Garfield's key to open the door, and casually asked, "Can this house be inhabited?"
"Wei Siming comes back every weekend to clean up. With a click, the door opened, Garfield strode in, and I pulled my suitcase, faintly uneasy: "What about your mother-in-law?
Garfield bent down and took out a pair of clean slippers from the shoe cabinet on the side, put them at my feet, took my box with his backhand, and pushed it to the living room, while patiently explaining to me: "My mother-in-law and my father-in-law live in the suburbs, and they have long ignored me and Wei Siming. As for Wei Siming, after we separated, he bought a second-hand small living room near the school, except for the routine cleaning on weekends, he didn't care when I came or when I stayed. ”
I've only heard of couples arguing over a house after their marriage broke up, and I've never heard of a house worth a lot of money that still holds the last bit of warmth from a young couple who have separated.
Is this marriage really going to be divorced?
Should I really leave?
I swayed Garfield's red wine from the platinum-gold wine cabinet, lying on the large terrace 25th floor above the ground, looking at the neon lights that were far and near, bright and dark, and my heart couldn't stop feeling sad.
"What are you looking at?" Garfield, who was lying on the sofa in the living room watching TV, gave a long look: "It's windy outside, be careful of catching a cold." ”
I exhaled and responded to her first question: "Looking out like this, it's a bit like a night in Beijing." ”
"Is that an exaggeration?" Garfield, also holding a glass of red wine, slowly walked up to me, looked around, and smiled: "Don't say, this night view is quite beautiful." ”
"Yes. I glanced back at the woman beside me who was also stumped by the light of the night: "When do you arrange for me to meet Wei Siming?"
She took a sip of red wine and hesitated: "Tomorrow afternoon at three o'clock, the café downstairs." Besides," she bit her lip and her face turned slightly, "Don't tell them yet." ”
Of course, I understood who they were referring to, and I couldn't help laughing: "You don't want to divorce, do you have to say it to me, so they will know?
"I can't tell you. Garfield's eyes flashed, flashing a layer of mist, and after a pause, he asked shallowly: "You say, between me and him, who is right and who is wrong?"
My eyebrows seemed to have been filed with a file, and my heart hurt so much that I didn't even dare to breathe, and some problems, which seemed to be problems, were actually scars.
In Garfield and Wei Simin's unsatisfactory married life, there have been two opportunities to ease the relationship.
One time was nine months after they got married, Garfield had her first pregnancy. They tacitly abandoned the gap between their uncle and their uncle, and began to intimately plan the future of the family of three. At this time, women are always the easiest to compromise for the sake of their children.
Garfield was no exception, and she had the idea of quitting her job and returning to be a housewife.
But just as she drove to the city and was about to tell Wei Siming on the way, the child was accidentally left in the car.
If they hadn't separated, they might have avoided the loss of their son.
Everyone thinks so. Only Garfield roared and said to Wei Siming: Why didn't you use your uncle's relationship earlier to give her a stability?
At that time, we all tasted the sourness of being trampled on dignity and pride by related households in society, and the kind of stability that Garfield wanted, we can only say that because of her grief and anger at the loss of her child, we are willing to endure and not stop.
A year later, Garfield became pregnant for the second time, and that was the hardest time for her business. Without telling anyone, she aborted the child.
Wei Siming's anger was everywhere.
Half a year later, they decided to abandon their pretense and officially separated.
"The first time, he was wrong, and the second time, you were wrong. I put down my wine glass, gently sat down Garfield, and said softly: But cat, you have to understand that feelings are not measured by right or wrong. Whoever is more wrong and who is less wrong is not a basis for divorce or moving on with life. ”
