Chapter 13: Mockery and Reality
Xu Minghui smiled bitterly and muttered to me, "Haichao, do you really want me to find another one?"
Hearing his words, I was stunned for a moment, and then said coldly to him: "Whether you look for it or not, it doesn't matter to me, because I am nothing with you now." ”
Xu Minghui leaned back on the sofa, looked at me and smiled meaningfully, his hand reached into his coat pocket, and took out a box of cigarettes. ”
Xu Minghui is an old smoker, his smoking history can be traced back to his college days, since we fell in love, his habit has only been reined, because I am always by his side to supervise and remind him: smoking is harmful to the human body, second-hand smoke is more harmful, you don't want our lungs to turn into charcoal when we are old, right?
Xu Minghui agreed on the surface, but he still sucked a lot behind my back.
In fact, he has had a relatively stubborn tracheal inflammation since he was a teenager, and it will be serious every time he has a cold, since he smoked, the trachea is even worse, and even the lungs have some problems, so after getting married, under my repeated coercion, Xu Minghui once quit smoking for a while, but later his position was promoted, and someone would inevitably hand him cigarettes during entertainment, so his addiction to smoking was committed again, but when he was at home, I still tried to control the amount of cigarettes he smoking.
Thinking of this, I feel a little uncomfortable, now that we have parted ways, he will no longer have to listen to my annoying nagging, how much he smokes, or what his lungs have become, it has nothing to do with me.
Hearing my stop, Xu Minghui retracted his hand stupidly, leaned forward slightly, crossed his hands in front of his knees, and looked at me like this.
"Didn't you say come up and talk to me about Hopping, how is my daughter these days?" I asked him calmly, sitting there.
Hearing his daughter's name, a hint of joy flashed on Xu Minghui's face, and he replied softly: "My daughter has been doing well lately." ”
"Oh, what about the grades? didn't go down, did they?"
Xu Minghui put his hand down and replied to me lightly: "It's okay." ”
"Oh. I breathed a sigh of relief, but I didn't know if Xu Minghui's "okay" was mixed with any water.
"Since you're so worried about your daughter, go back with me. Xu Minghui tentatively mentioned it to me again.
"You-" I frowned and looked at him, the anger in my eyes was self-evident, I knew that Xu Minghui had done his daughter's ideological work before the divorce, and I also knew that he desperately wanted to keep his daughter by his side, just hoping to make me change my mind, but now, since I have walked out of the door of the Xu family, it is impossible to go back.
"If it's okay to jump, then you can go back and stop talking useless to me. "I gave the eviction order.
Xu Minghui looked at me and seemed to be a little helpless and said to me: "Haichao, you scolded and scolded, beat and beaten, and wanted to divorce, but you tossed it with you, your anger should be almost gone, right?"
I bit my lip and looked at Xu Minghui, my brows furrowed, and after a moment, I asked him fiercely: "Do you think that I divorced you just to fight for a breath?"
Xu Minghui sighed, sat up straight, and asked me slowly, "Then what are you for? Do you want to live your life in the future?"
I stared at him for a moment of silence and asked, "What happened next?"
Xu Minghui spread his hands: "You can't always live your life alone like this, do you? Have you ever thought about what kind of person you can find in the future?"
I narrowed my eyes and asked him in a cold voice, "Xu Minghui, is this something you should be concerned about?"
Xu Minghui sneered and said lightly: "I don't care about you, who cares about you? Do you think that after leaving me, you can find a man who is more suitable for you than me?"
I looked at Xu Minghui fixedly, for a moment, sneered, and after laughing, I said to him in a weird manner: "Xu Minghui, you came over today for a long time, are you here to care about your ex-wife's lifelong affairs?"
Xu Minghui smiled bitterly, and then said to me slowly: "Haichao, I am actually reluctant to give our husband and wife more than ten years of relationship, I hope you can give each other a chance, after all, we also have a common daughter." ”
Hearing Xu Minghui say this, I secretly sneered in my heart, what kind of relationship and daughter are you mentioning to me for more than ten years now, so why don't you think about these things when you take off your pants and other women?
But I didn't say this, because I knew that once I said it, Xu Minghui thought that I intended to turn back, and with his three-inch tongue, he would definitely have to chew and eat for a long time, so I kept silent at the moment, and just wanted to send him away quickly.
"Haichao, we have been in a relationship for so many years, I won't hide it in front of you today, to tell you the truth, with your current age, what kind of can you look for if you leave me? I'm afraid it must be a divorced man in his forties, right? You live with you halfway like this, can you guarantee that he is better than me to you? Can you guarantee that he will not cheat for the rest of his life? Can you guarantee that he will follow you all the way to the end?"
After hearing Xu Minghui's words, I sneered, and then said to him: "Xu Minghui, some people come from young couples all the way to the childhood, but in the end, don't they also betray their families and end up falling apart? There are too many possibilities in this world, how do you know that I won't find a man better than you?"
Xu Minghui laughed self-righteously again, and then lowered his eyebrows and said slowly to me: "Haichao, I am a man, I know men better than you, I will open the skylight today and say something bright, leave me, you will definitely not find a better man than me, this is determined by the current situation of the marriage and love market;
Hearing this, I was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said: "I believe it! Xu Minghui, then I will congratulate you on finding a talented and beautiful Huanggong girl, the old cucumber is painted, the plum blossom is twice, and then there is a second spring?"
Xu Minghui sneered, and then said to me calmly: "Haichao, I'm not kidding you, I heard that I am divorced, and someone in our unit really introduced me to the eldest girl, the other party graduated from graduate school, is twenty-seven years old this year, and the conditions are good in all aspects, but I directly refused at that time, because I still think about you in my heart, and Jump, I don't want to easily break up our family of three that we have built with great difficulty." ”
I lowered my head, and something sour surged in my heart, and I secretly thought: Xu Minghui, you knew this earlier, why did you bother in the first place?
But I didn't say this, and after a while, I raised my head and pretended to be cynical and said to Xu Minghui: "Xu Minghui, it seems that I have to thank you for your favor?"
Xu Minghui smiled faintly: "No need, what I said is all from my heart, I hope you can also be cautious about this issue." ”
I looked at Xu Minghui silently, pondered for a moment, and then said to him solemnly: "Xu Minghui, even if I can't find a suitable one in the future, or if I am really deceived by a negative person again, I will not regret divorcing you, let alone go back to eat your back-to-back grass." It's a big deal that I'm single for the rest of my life, anyway, I have the ability to make money, why use it when I make money? Enjoy, go around the world, eat some delicious food, play some fun, in this life, isn't it just a little thing? So, you still don't have to eat salty radishes and worry about it, it's a waste of time in my place, go back quickly, and it's a little later, what kind of big girl and little daughter-in-law you booked, maybe someone else will rob it. ”
Xu Minghui lowered his eyes and listened to my words silently, then nodded with a sneer, and whispered to me: "Okay, Haichao, since you have said this, then I will not be here to stalk your eyes, but," Speaking of this, Xu Minghui looked at me, and the smile in his eyes disappeared, "But I have a word here." ”
"What?" I asked.
Xu Minghui pondered for a moment, and then said calmly to me: "I'll give you half a year, no matter what others introduce to me in this half year, I won't go to see you, just wait for you to turn back." If you don't come back to me in the past six months, then I'm sorry, I won't wait for you anymore, and then the man and the woman will get married, and they have nothing to do with each other. ”
I smiled and nodded to Xu Minghui and said, "Xu Minghui, I thank you for looking at me so highly, but I also put the words here, your time is precious, so don't waste this half a year on me, because I definitely won't go back to you, you better hurry up and catch those big girls and little daughters-in-law around you." ”
Xu Minghui nodded with a sneer, stood up, and said goodbye to me: "I'll go back first, but what I just said must count." ”
I didn't look him in the eye, I didn't send him out, I just sat on the sofa with a blank face, until Xu Minghui walked out and closed the door heavily, and my eyes fell on the tightly closed door.
At this moment, my heart for Xu Minghui has been closed like a cold and tightly closed door.
***
I have a sister who is eight years younger than me, named Wei Haijing, who is not in S City, where I stayed, she stayed there after finishing college in City B, and she developed directly there.
When she graduated, our family persuaded her to either go back to the city near her hometown to develop, after all, there are many relatives and friends there, and everything has a response, or come to my side to develop, after all, Xu Minghui and I had a stable foundation in the city at that time, and Haijing could take care of her a little bit after she came.
But at that time, Hai Jing stayed in B City for a man she had been in love with for a long time, and gave her most precious first night to that man, but she never expected that that man actually hooked up with their boss's daughter during his relationship with Hai Jing, and for his own future, he threw himself into the arms of the boss's daughter and abandoned Hai Jing.
This incident gave Haijing a very heavy blow, when she was alone in B City, because of some unhappiness at work, she also resigned, unemployment and lovelorn, the double blow made her almost commit suicide at that time, she didn't tell her family these things at the time, and then she survived like this, and finally found a good sweetheart.
Now, knowing that I am divorced, I am afraid that I will be lonely and uncomfortable, Hai Jing will call me every night, and our sisters' phone porridge is often a pot for an hour or two.
On the phone, I roughly repeated what Xu Minghui said today to Hai Jing, and after listening to it, Hai Jing said to me: "Sister, the more the surname Xu says this, the more you have to live your true style, give him some color and see!"
