Seeing that the time on my phone was already pointing to 1:13, I sighed and walked to the elevator with my bag. I went upstairs and turned a corner to get home.

I pulled out the key and was about to open the door when my mom opened it from the inside.

"You're back. My mother saw me and walked back, "I still want to go to the vegetable market, these days, your Aunt Li said that there will be a vacancy to come out." I've discussed it with you, anyway, we don't have anything to do when we retire, so we'll buy some fruit to sell. You haven't eaten yet, I've left you food. ”

"Ate a little. "I lied, afraid that my mom would ask me about money again. I've been hospitalized for so long, and she's been holding on to her heart, and if she still wants to set up a stall, I don't dare to let her worry about it anymore.

"Then drink some fish soup, and I'll go warm it up. Your brother went to work, and your dad was taking a nap...... "My mother said this, and then glanced at Qian Lei's room, and after a low sigh, she pulled me to the kitchen.

I was sitting at the small kitchen table drinking fish soup, and my mother couldn't help but say that she served me another meal, served the food, and forced me to eat it. Seeing that I was eating deliciously, she wiped her tears inexplicably.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?" I paused.

"It's fine. She hurriedly wiped away her tears, "You eat, eat." ”

"Is it that Yuira and Lei Lei are arguing again?" I asked in a low voice, "for my own sake." ”

"Alas, when you were young, you had a good relationship with the Weiliang siblings. If you have anything to eat, you have to keep it for your brother, and Weiliang loves to follow you. In the blink of an eye, you are all parents, and you all have your own destiny. How good it would be if that Cao Shoulian wasn't so bastard, how comfortable and comfortable your life would be now. ”

I didn't speak, I was most afraid of looking back these days, I saw too much, and I even lost the courage to go on.

"You don't care what Lei Lei says, don't take it to heart, she is the one who has a broken temper. In the past two days, I don't know what happened, and I lost my temper with Weiliang again and again. My mom wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "She's pregnant, and she's a little more emotional." Weilan, you have to understand!"

"Well, I understand. "I drank all the fish soup in the bowl, got up and put it away, ready to put it in the pool.

"I'll wash it, you put it. My mother snatched the bowl from my hand, "By the way, your brother said that you went to dinner with some friend at noon, did you go to ask about borrowing money?"

"Well, say you'll give me an answer in the next two days. "I leaned against the sink and looked at the kitchen door.

"200,000, who can take so much money out at once. The sound of the rushing water was mixed with my mother's faint sigh.

"Your dad and I don't have any money left, and we can't help you. The two of them have a bit of a retirement salary, and Xiaobao still has to go to school. "My mom turned off the water," Xiaobao's bastard father, it is estimated that it will be difficult to find him for child support. ”

"No, Mom, I have a way. I'll go back to my room first, and I'll go out in the afternoon. I'm ready to start looking for a job in the next two days, Mom, don't worry about me, I'll be fine. I smiled at my mom and I went out of the kitchen.

As soon as she stepped into the living room, she saw Qian Lei coming out of her room with her long hair scattered, and her eyes were red again.

"Leilei. I turned a few steps and walked up to her, "Are you uncomfortable?"

"Nope. She said in a thick nasal voice, "Sister, you're back, is your friend willing to lend you money?"

"Well, Ken. I whispered.

Qian Lei didn't answer my words again, the two of them were silent for a few seconds, and then she turned around and went back to the room. I watched her enter the room, and involuntarily took two steps, only to see Qian Lei standing in front of the bay window in a daze.

Two days after I exposed the truth about my father-in-law's cerebral infarction, that afternoon, it was almost Xiaobao's school time. Cao Shoulian called me, and on the phone, he didn't ask me for money, but just asked me to meet.

"Is there anything wrong with you?" I really can't think of a reason why he needs to see me other than money.

"Half an hour later, I'm at the xx café near your mother's neighborhood, you will definitely regret not coming. He smiled.

"I'm not going, I'm trying to figure out a way to get the money, and I'll definitely give it to you. "I turned him down.

"Xu Weilan, it's about your brother and daughter-in-law. A shocking secret, don't you really want to know?" Cao Shoulian hung up the phone after finishing speaking.

I took a deep breath and told myself not to get angry, not to get angry with such a bastard.

After sitting in the room for a while, I called my mom. She went to the market again, and when she heard me say that I was not available, she said she would pick it up. I put on my coat and walked out of the room, and when I passed by the living room, Qian Lei sat on the sofa and looked at the ceiling in a daze.

"Leilei. I shouted, and she was startled.

"Sister, are you going out?" she asked me, cheering up.

"Well, what do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you. "I looked at her gently, and she was often shocked when she became pregnant. It's been a long time, and I've gotten used to it.

"No need. With that, she leaned back on the couch and looked at the ceiling.

I wanted to ask her what was wrong, but I guess the time for Cao Shou's appointment was almost up. So, without asking any more questions, I walked to the gate.

When I walked to the café, Cao Shoulian also happened to arrive. He got out of the car and saw me, and he walked over quickly.

"Happy New Year. He smiled.

"Thank you!" I looked at his face, the face I'd looked at for over seven years, and now I felt a little unappetizing.

"Go in, I'll treat you to coffee today. "He is very heavy on one word.

"Thank you!" I was still lukewarm.

Inside the café, he walked straight to the corner seat. After sitting down, he directly ordered two cups of Blue Mountain coffee. Seeing that the waiter was walking away, he poured me a glass of lemonade.

"Why, haven't you had a good time lately? Lost weight like this?" he looked me up and down like an object.

"It's okay or not, it has nothing to do with you. I tugged at the corners of my mouth and smiled.

"Yes, let's get down to business. He bent his finger and tapped on the table, "I'll show you a picture, I took it this morning." ”

I took the phone he handed me, and on the screen, there was a couple of men and women hugging. The woman's head rested on the man's shoulder, and the expression on her face was not clear. The background is the lake in XX Park in F City, the wind is a little strong, and Qian Lei's long hair is flying.

I didn't think about it, so I just deleted the photo.

Because I know the man in the photo, that man is the mobile boss of the area where I opened the store before. And this morning, Qian Lei did go out, saying that she would go back to her mother's house.

"Sorry, the hand was too fast, and I deleted it. I calmly handed the phone back to him, "Learn from you!"

"If you delete it, you delete it, and I don't plan to take this photo to your brother. Cao Shoulian waved his hand very generously, "It's very simple for me to come to you, first, let you know about this matter." Second, hurry up and get your money ready. Otherwise, if I take a picture again one day, and I'm in a bad mood, I might go to your brother. Xu Weilan, you say, does your brother tolerate his pregnant wife hugging other men?"
