362, Xiao He's Dream (5)

The old lady was about to reach out and knock on the door, and my boss opened her mouth and asked:

"Is there anyone else in the house? ”

The old lady had a strange face and was distracted.

"There is a relative. ”

When I heard this, I thought that Pillow Creek was not at home. Until the door opened, and Pillow Creek with an apron appeared in front of us.

I almost couldn't control my exclamation.

I can't believe that the pale and haggard man in front of me is the girl I remember who doesn't know how to look at eyes.

It's only been a few years, and it's like a different person.

Looking at her like this, you know that she has not been comfortable and happy in the past few years. Not to mention that it can't be compared with when it was in the group, even compared to most women of the same age in this world.

She was amazed to see us. The already big eyes widened, and they kept looking at me and my boss in horror.

Or the old lady in front of me pushed her, and said with disgust:

"There are guests at home, and I am still stunned about what to do, pouring tea for the guests. You won't know what else you can do, and you don't know what the use of living in this world is. ”

When she said this, my boss kept staring at her, and his eyes were so deep that he couldn't see the bottom.

Pillow Creek went to the kitchen to pour us tea, and the old lady beckoned us to sit down.

I sat down, but my boss was still standing, scanning the house with his eyes.

It's hard for me to imagine that Mr. Rao, who looked like a dog before before would live in such a place.

Later, I found out that he rarely went home and spent most of his time in a hotel suite.

The old lady was still polite to us, and kept asking about my boss's identity and background while talking, but my boss just didn't say a word.

It's rare to see him so impatient. Usually, whether it is out of politeness and upbringing, he will say a few words.

Pillow Creek took the cup. Their coffee table was very low, and when she poured tea for us, she was on her knees.

My boss just glanced at it and then looked away.

I hurriedly said, "Don't bother, we'll leave in a while." ”

Pillow Xi looked at her mother-in-law with her eyes, and she didn't seem to dare to make up her own mind.

"Don't be in a hurry. Thank you for sending me back, an old woman, and I'll have my son come back and invite you to dinner in a moment. ”

"You're welcome, it's our fault. He said this, but his eyes looked at Pillow Creek. I think if she had spoken, my boss would have stayed.

But from the time we came in until now, she would only speak when her mother-in-law asked her.

Back then, he was also an unconfident, timid and weak character, but he was never as trembling and groveling as he is now.

Even I can't help but wonder if Mr. Rao married her because of her current temperament of not scolding and beating back. It's not so much about getting a wife as it is about marrying a free babysitter.

My boss didn't say anything, that is, he didn't want to stay, and I could only shirk the blame on his behalf. Mrs. Rao saw that she couldn't keep us, so she asked Pillow Creek to send us down.

Hearing this, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Pillow Creek took off her apron and went out with us. That's when I realized that she was too thin, and her clothes didn't fit well, and she could almost be stuffed with another one.

My boss walked very fast and by the time we got out of the stairwell, he was already back in the car. I had to talk to Pillow Creek alone.

Tell her about what happened unexpectedly today, and ask her how she has been doing over the years.

Her answer made me very angry. It's almost all good, it's okay, it's okay.

It seems that the years of marrying Mr. Rao have completely worn out the character and temper that are not distinctive.

I thought about it for a while, and told her what I had seen before about her husband messing around outside.

She was stunned, then said to me in complete disbelief, "No." ”

A mouthful of old blood immediately welled up in my throat.

I think my boss's evaluation of her is really not wrong.

Stupid, stupid, and useless.

My boss honked his horn and urged me. I had to stuff her with two business cards, one from my boss's personal number and one with my own, and told her, "You can contact her if you need help." ”

She accepted it with a smile and said, "I hope there won't be a day of bothering." ”

I looked at it and got angry.

That's how we took our leave.

After that, my boss didn't mention this person for a long time. I was the only one around him who knew about Pillow Creek, and I thought that as long as I didn't mention it, he wouldn't be able to remember.

It's that I forgot, my boss, is a good memory that is known to the whole company.

One afternoon a few months later, my boss asked me to book a plane ticket to fly to T City.

I didn't accompany him on this trip because of work, he went alone.

In the afternoon, the plane flew over, and the next morning I came back to work as usual.

He didn't take the initiative to tell me, and I didn't dare to ask him what he did in T City, who he met, and what happened to him.

When I came back this time, it was quiet for another month or two.

Then one afternoon, after a meeting, on a whim, I was asked to book a plane ticket.

This time I went for a longer time and came back the next afternoon.

After that, it went from once every two or three months, to once a month or two, and then once a month, or twice a month.

It's not planned, it's a whim every time. It's like standing in the office overlooking the window, and it's raining outside, so he asks me to book a plane ticket.

This situation lasted for almost two years. Once, when he came back, he suddenly asked me:

"Do you remember Pillow Han? ”

"Ah...... The girl who was chased away by the security. ”

"She is her half-sister. ”

I grudgingly chuckled and said, "No wonder a surname." ”

"Guess what I learned from someone lately. ”

My boss rarely said such a playful thing, and I could only guess a few answers.

"None of them are right. My boss sneered: "It's not that she doesn't always believe that Rao Liqun is virtuous outside." But her own sister ...... with Rao Liqun"

The boss's words came to an abrupt end, and I covered my mouth in surprise.

My sister hooked up with my brother-in-law, this is something to be happy about?

"You can't still cover your eyes and ears now, and think you can't see or hear. ”

"It's hard to say. ”

"No way. "My boss suddenly showed a childish stubbornness.

"Pillow Han is pregnant. ”

"Ahh

"Rao Liqun doesn't like her. Now that the woman outside has Rao Liqun's child, she won't allow her to occupy the magpie's nest in that house. On the surface, Pillow Han is much more decent than her. ”

But my boss and I both know what kind of person Pillow Han is.

I don't think it's strange that she could do such a thing.

It's poor Pillow Creek, it seems that she really relies on trusting the person named Rao Liqun.

I quietly went to my boss and asked, "What's that......?" Do you want her to know about it? ”

"Otherwise. My boss asked gloomily: "It's not enough for her to serve Rao Liqun and his mother, she will have to be a cow and a horse in the future to serve Pillow Han and the child she gave birth to." ”

My boss gave me this.

So I went to T City with him and found a chance to meet Pillow Creek on the road.

She had just come out of the vegetable market, carrying a heavy vegetable in her hand, and she couldn't stand up straight.

"What a coincidence. I said.

"Coincidentally. ”

I asked her to sit at a nearby coffee shop, and she thought about it, made a phone call to report back to Rao Liqun's mother, and then followed me.

I gave her some of it. I, who am also a girl, can't bear to see a thin girl like her work so hard, and I don't know how her husband and mother-in-law can bear it.

I only hope that after she knows the truth of the matter, she can wake up as soon as possible and leave the scumbag to start over.

I thought about it, if she was divorced and had no place to stay, I would give her a portion of my work. For example, take care of the refrigerator and buy some groceries for my boss.

A careful person like her will definitely be able to do a good job.

I sat down with her at the coffee shop, and I pushed the menu to her and asked her what she wanted to drink.

"White water is fine. ”

"If you come to a place like this and only drink plain water, you will be hated by the boss. ”

"I can't drink it. She looked at me, smiled very softly, and said, "With children, these things can't be touched." ”

My brain crackled and I asked her incredulously, "Child?"

"Yes. ”

In the warm light of the sun, she gently stroked her belly and said, "It's been almost four months." ”

My mind went blank, and I didn't remember much of what I said to her. It's just that I didn't say a word about what my boss told me.

For a mother who was still in the midst of a period of euphoria, those facts were too harsh.

I can't tell.

When I went back, my boss sat in the car, read a magazine, and asked me:

"Is she still that stupid. ”

"I didn't tell her. ”

The boss suddenly turned his head to look at me, and the look of questioning and reprimanding in his eyes was very scary.

"Pillow Creek She...... She's pregnant and already ...... It's been four months. ”

"Nonsense. ”

The boss flipped a page of the magazine and looked back.

"Really, she showed me pictures of the ultrasounds. ”

My boss laughed and said, "How can anyone who is four months pregnant go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables by himself, carrying so many and so heavy things." ”

I didn't speak, my boss laughed, threw the magazine aside, closed his eyes and pinch the bridge of his nose and fell on the back of the chair, and whispered:

Bastard.

Our car drove away, we didn't know where to go, the boss wouldn't stop, just kept looking out the window and didn't speak.

A few hours later, he asked me, "Is there any other way?" ”

I said truthfully: "She should be the happiest and happiest she has been in the past few years." ”

That continues to keep her dreaming of these unrealistic dreams. ”

"Let's make her happy for a while, it's cruel to say this now. ”

"Will that child be born? "My boss asked me.

"She must have hoped to be born. ”

"After the child is born, Rao Liqun will be able to go home, or will he see her a few more times. ”

"That's what she thinks. ”

At the time, I thought it was the best thing to do. Now that I think about it, I feel that I was wrong.
