Chapter 289: Sweet and bitter self-knowledge
When people get old, they inevitably yearn for the joy of the countryside - except for those who have done farm work all their lives.
The richer and more powerful people think, the more they think so. Ma Wanli is not exempt from vulgarity. He asked himself that there has never been a moment in his life to live for himself, even raising a little lover is something that he dares to do after the age of fifty, compare the father and son of the Hua family, especially the son of the Hua family, at a young age, the woman who plays should have double digits, right? Although now paralyzed, he is in the most capable (!) I did the most important thing at the age of the year! When people are young, they should be romantic, and when they are more than half a hundred years old, they are not ashamed to be old.
Ma Wanli, regret.
He seems to have suddenly figured it out and figured it out! Life is rare for seventy years, and he can live to ninety, which is also a piece of rotten wood! Every day, you can't eat or touch, women can't stick, you can't have fun, you can't indulge in fun, what day is this? He has survived all his life, and he saved such a family business just to live the life of a monk?!
Loss or not?
Power is the best aphrodisiac for men, and even the highest power is better than the most beautiful woman, this is true. But what if you don't get the highest power?
At least he got the most beautiful woman.
Ma Wanli walked into the house with melodious music. He got off work early in the summer, and when he came back, the sun was still shining outside.
The indoor temperature is 30 degrees, and people are always afraid of cold and heat, and this temperature is just right.
"Master, you're back, I'll pour you tea." The nanny aunt walked over, sweating on her face. The temperature was too high for someone who worked at home, but no one complained.
Ma Wanli hung up his clothes and changed his shoes, politely waved his hand to the nanny and aunt, and asked gently, "Where is the wife?" ”
The nanny pointed down to the second floor: "Mrs. is in the pool." ”
Ma Wan was unhappy inside, he was pregnant and still tossed so much!
The nanny and aunt hurriedly said, "Mrs. said that it will be good to give birth when the time comes." ”
Ma Wanli said coldly: "She is so young, what is not good about giving birth?" Although he went up to the second floor, he deliberately went back to the study first, read the book for a while, and drank a cup of tea before waiting for Xu Xin to come.
Xu Xin's hair had been specially dried and came in a hurry, panting, peach blossoms on her face, and she was beautiful.
But Ma Wanli didn't raise his head, wearing glasses and reading seriously.
Xu Xin stood for a while and saw that he didn't speak, so he had the courage to pour him tea, and gently pushed it to his hand, his voice was soft and soft, like a bomb, "It's very hot outside today, do you want to take a shower first when you come back?" ”
Ma Wanli read two more pages of the book before putting down the book and standing up, still not looking at her or speaking to her, turned around and entered the bedroom from the study, Xu Xin heard the sound of him opening the wardrobe and getting clothes inside before hurrying in.
At six o'clock, the nanny and aunt came up to call someone to eat, and when she heard the sound in the bedroom, her face was unbearable, and she went down lightly. At seven o'clock, I saw two people coming down from the upper floor.
The nanny and aunt hurriedly greeted her and said to Xu Xin: "Madam, dinner is ready." ”
Xu Xin's face was a little red abnormally, with a hint of fatigue, smiled at her aunt, turned around to take Ma Wanli's arm, but he sped up his pace and bypassed her to enter the restaurant, Xu Xin was a little embarrassed, and the aunt kept looking at the floor next to her, and waited for Xu Xin to follow before staggering two steps over.
The meal was eaten silently, only the sound of Xu Xin's courteous and gentle and considerate soup and wine, after the meal, Xu Xin, who had drunk two cups with her, turned even redder, but she held on to her spirit and asked Ma Wanli: "Do you want to watch the news?" ”
Only now, Ma Wanli's face slowed down, and he slowly responded, this time he stood up, and he was willing to wait for Xu Xin, when she put her hand up, he didn't avoid it, the two walked out of the restaurant to watch TV, and the aunt quickly took someone to clean up the table, while breathing a sigh of relief.
There are also two little nannies in this family who are in charge of cleaning and other chores, and only the nanny and aunt are usually waiting. The two little nannies are very young, the youngest is only eighteen years old, and they look ordinary, but they also have the beauty of youth. Usually there is no nanny and aunt to speak, and both of them avoid Ma Wanli.
Even now when they come to collect the tableware, the two of them are like running for their lives, their movements are extremely light, and their feet are fast. When they were all ready to be washed in the kitchen, the two little girls were a little more relaxed and asked their aunts:
"The master tossed his wife again today, right?"
Auntie was silent. Living together every day, they see everything in their eyes, and they can't hide it, so they simply save the effort of telling nonsense. Besides, today's dinner is another hour late.
"People grow old. The older this man gets, the weirder he gets! A little nanny said hatefully.
The three of them quickly cleaned up the kitchen, and the two little nannies went back to the room, their dinner was brought in, and there was a toilet and bathroom in the room, and no one called out at night.
Auntie didn't go to bed so early, she was old and not afraid of anything. She sat on the small couch in the foyer, reading a newspaper and waiting. At eleven o'clock, Xu Xin quietly came downstairs, and the aunt quickly stood up, went up the stairs to help her, and whispered: "I stewed white fungus soup for you, drink a bowl and then sleep." ”
Don't look at Ma Wanli seems to be very good to Xu Xin, but he wants to "save" at home, so there is no bird's nest, and he is not allowed to eat it, only white fungus is to eat.
Xu Xin was tired and hungry, and she nodded. The white fungus soup brought by her aunt, she restrained herself and only drank one bowl. The aunt was worried: "Drink more, this ...... Don't get fat...... "Mrs. entered the door with a child in her arms, and she couldn't let people know, for fear that her stomach would bulge, so she didn't eat all day and only drank a bowl of soup every day.
Xu Xin was deliberately hungry, she swam every day, exercised a lot, didn't eat, and actively cooperated with Ma Wanli to toss herself, just to make the child fall, who knows what is going on with this child, his life is so hard, so tossing but not falling off, seeing that the month is getting bigger and bigger, the bigger it is, the worse it is...... She's in a hurry!
She shook her head, "Thank you, I'll go up first." ”
The aunt softened, gently helped her and said, "Go ahead, I'll clean up the bed for you in the hut, the master feels light, don't disturb him." ”
Xu Xin smiled with emotion and went upstairs.
The aunt looked at her back as thin as a piece of paper, and sighed in her heart, don't look at the jewels marrying in, speaking of which, she is really not as respected by the old lady as the former wife.
It's been four months!!
Xu Xin felt that every day seemed to symbolize another step forward in her future.
Ma Wanli is not a good person. Maybe he is a good person and an upright person in front of others, but in front of her, he doesn't have to be a man. Or rather, he didn't have to treat her as a human being.
When the curiosity of the neighbors gradually subsided about her, she began to go out to visit the neighbors frequently, and seemed to be busy every day, as if she was very popular here, and everyone liked her.
She had to use this method to coax Ma Wanli and elevate her status in his eyes.
But she didn't go to find Flowers and Butterflies, in her heart, he was her last guarantee, and before that, she didn't want Ma Wanli to suspect that there was a relationship between them.
Such days are like madness before beheading, both torturous and as if leaving a glimmer of hope.
That morning, Ma Wanli said at the dining table, "When is your next prenatal checkup?" ”
Xu Xin smiled softly and said softly: "The second daughter-in-law of the Zhang family in District 3 just happened to have a prenatal checkup, and she was next Tuesday, so I made an appointment with her at the same time, so we could go together and take care of her." ”
Ma Wanli said: "Push it away, I'll accompany you this time." ”
He wanted to ask the doctor if he could do an amniocentesis!
Xu Xin's heart was about to jump out of her throat, and she lowered her head and hummed.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, she sat on the couch in a daze, holding a book in her hand but not even reading it. After a few passes, the aunt brought her fruits and snacks, and found that she had been paying attention to the standing clock in the corner. The aunt said: "It's not half past five, and the master didn't get home until about five forty." There is still more than an hour, should my wife go out for a walk? Buying something? ”
Xu Xin seemed to have been whipped by an invisible whip, and like a brave warrior with enough courage, he stood up suddenly, "That's right, the master just said that he doesn't have many cigarettes, I'll go buy him cigarettes." After that, he went upstairs, rushed down after a while, walked out quickly like a gust of wind, and threw down a sentence to his aunt: "If I am stuck in the road, when the master comes back, you will sue him." ”
The little nanny just finished cleaning the upstairs and came down, saw Xu Xin go out, and said to the aunt sympathetically: "The master won't be angry with his wife, right?" ”
Auntie sighed, "Don't worry about it, you're done cleaning?" Let's go wash the vegetables. ”
Xu Xin drove the car aimlessly around the viaduct, and on the second lap, the traffic police gave her a gesture to get down and pull over, and asked her: "Can't turn around?" Which direction to go? ”
Her dejected appearance made the voice of the traffic policeman's brother soften, "Otherwise, I'll go up and show you the way?" Just follow me. ”
Xu Xin reluctantly smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I'll take a detour other way." ”
When the car drove away, another traffic police brother came up and sighed, "Xiangche beauty!" ”
A white fat man who was punished next to him smiled shyly, "Big brother, you see I'm quite pitiful...... "The woman didn't make a bill in circles, why did you punish him......
The traffic police brother turned his head and calmed down when he saw the white fat man's face, "Strict!" Stand still! ”
The big man made a straight posture and blinked his little eyes aggrievedly.
The traffic police brother came over and reasoned earnestly: "People have gone around twice, how many times have you gone around?" ”
"Seven or eight laps...... the white fat man said aggrievedly: "I still spent a lot of oil, and you also spare me for the sake of the oil money...... Now oil is so expensive......"
The traffic police brother made him laugh, "Be honest! ”
Xu Xin slowed down, she almost wanted to rush off the bridge......
Unfortunately, she didn't have enough courage.
After this time, she also understood, she didn't have the guts to die.
Then you can only ......
At nine o'clock in the evening, Xu Xin entered the door. The aunt was waiting at the door, and when she saw her car coming in, she hurried over, trotted to the stopped car, and while helping her carry things, she reminded nervously and whispered: "The master is angry, and he didn't eat dinner!" ”
Xu Xin's footsteps suddenly hesitated, and his face was pale.
The aunt took all the things in her hand, gently pulled her inside, and whispered: "I stewed the soup, it's not hot, put it in the cup, you can serve it later...... It's better than serving tea."
Xu Xin's eyes blinked in fright, she held her breath and nodded, and stood at the gate to take a deep breath several times. The aunt trotted to bring the soup cup, the tray was also replaced with plastic, the soup was only half full, served to her, gently pushed her, watched her slowly go upstairs, the aunt was waiting at the staircase, after half a day heard the sound of things overturning upstairs, she went up a few steps, nervously waited, after half an hour, Xu Xin came out, her face and clothes were sprinkled with porridge, fortunately it was not hot, and her hands and face were only a little red.
"I want to eat something simple."
"Yes, yes." The aunt deliberately said in a louder voice, "Madam, you haven't changed your clothes when you come back, you can go and change your clothes and come to eat with your master." ”
Xu Xin was able to hide back in the bedroom, take a cold shower in the bathroom, wrap herself in a bath towel and come out, and saw that her shoulder bones in the mirror were all ridged, and she was as thin as a bone shelf. She gently covered her stomach and looked at the frightened person in the mirror, her eyes slightly red and her lips trembling.
Just now...... When he kicked over, she subconsciously turned around to protect her stomach......
If he kicks it in, maybe the kid will fall.
Why didn't she let him kick it?
Xu Xin sat down on the stool, covered her mouth, and whimpered and cried in a low voice.
