018 Stillborn
She smiled self-deprecatingly, she must have been burned, dazzled, or hallucinated.
Tong Xiao flipped through the call records, and suddenly saw a series of familiar numbers, she looked at it and looked at it, and it was still the familiar number.
Zhou Yuwei pursed her lips and handed her the mobile phone, "No, many people called you this morning, and answered two, all of them were from parents, and they didn't say anything, just to give you New Year's greetings." After a few more calls, I didn't answer. β
Zhou Yuwei put a cold towel on her head, she felt much more comfortable, and said, "Mom, thank you." β
When Tong Xiao woke up, he still felt groggy.
ββ
Very irritated, he turned on the phone, pressed the familiar number, rang twice, no one answered, and he hung up again.
The mobile phone relationship forced me to sleep, but I still couldn't sleep. His mind was in a mess, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
picked up the phone, flipped out the address book several times, looked at the familiar name, familiar number, he never pressed it.
I had so much fun last night, I lay in bed and wanted to catch up on sleep, but I only felt irritable and couldn't sleep.
Shen Chenpeng said and went upstairs.
"I don't have that much to spare."
"Men are really ruthless things, even if they are ordinary friends, they should visit each other when they are sick."
Shen Chenpeng snorted, "What do you think I'm doing?" I broke up with her a long time ago, and it's okay anymore. β
An Nuan and Xue Yulan sang and harmonized, both of them looking at Shen Chenpeng's expression.
"It's not appropriate for you to go."
"Yes, it's so pitiful, I want to take Dingbao to Jinjiang to see her."
Xue Yulan sighed when she heard this, "How can there be such a family, the health of the child is more important than anything else, and that girl looks quite pitiful." β
On the other end, An Nuan hung up the phone and said angrily, "Why is Tong Xiao's family like this, she has a fever of thirty-nine degrees, and she didn't even send her to the hospital, saying that it would be good to take some antipyretics, how can this antipyretic medicine be taken casually." β
Hanging up the phone, Zhou Yuwei was a little disappointed.
"Hello Auntie, I just want to say Happy New Year to Teacher Tong, since Teacher Tong is sick, then I will let my son pay New Year's greetings to Teacher Tong another day."
"You are a parent of a student, you Beijingers are really polite. That's the case, I'm Tong Xiao's mother, if you have anything to say to my daughter, just tell me, and when my daughter wakes up, I'll tell her. β
When Zhou Yuwei heard that she was the student's parent, she was very motivated, but she knew that Tong Xiao was teaching at an aristocratic college in Beijing, and the students there were all from rich families.
"Oh, I'm a parent of a student and want to call Ms. Tong and wish her a happy new year."
"It's okay, just take some medicine. By the way, who are you? My friend? β
Shen Chenpeng's heart froze slightly.
"Thirty-nine degrees, did you go to the hospital to see a doctor?" An Nuan deliberately amplified her voice.
"My child Xiao had a high fever, 39 degrees, took antipyretic medicine, and was asleep."
An Nuan picked up the phone and asked politely, "Hello, is Teacher Tong here?" β
The phone went through, and Ding Bao frowned and said, "Mom, isn't Teacher Tong?" β
An Nuan pretended not to look at him, dialed Tong Xiao's phone, and asked Ding Bao to talk to Tong Xiao.
An Nuan said that Shen Chenpeng was very sensitive.
"Dingbao, come here, call your teacher to greet the New Year."
The two children were also not stingy, kowtowing to each of them to greet the New Year, which made the old man and everyone very happy.
The two children ran around the house and gained a lot.
Ding Bao said angrily, "We still have to go to Taigong's place to collect red envelopes." β
"Where are you two going, come over and hug Grandpa."
These two children ran away after receiving the red envelope.
Looking at the cute child, Shen Yiming's anger disappeared all of a sudden, he picked up the child, and gave the red envelope that had been prepared long ago to the two children.
Shen Ziqing ran over and hugged Shen Yiming's legs, and said in a childish voice, "Grandpa, red envelope." β
An Nuan and Mo Zhonghui went downstairs to collect red envelopes with their two children, but saw that the father and son were arguing.
Shen Yiming was angry, "Yes, I can't control it, in this world, can anyone else control you?" β
He didn't care, "Young man, you have your own way of New Year's Eve, do you care?" β
Shen Yiming gave him a hard beating.
The Shen family, Shen Chenpeng went out after having a reunion dinner at home last night, and didn't go home until the next morning.
ββ
Tong Xiao had a high fever of 39 degrees, and he was drowsy after taking antipyretics.
"Tong Xiao, you are really going to cause trouble for us, I have a high fever on the first day of the new year, I really convinced you."
"Why is your face so bad!" Zhou Yuwei said and reached out to touch her forehead, which was very hot.
"I'm just outside watching people set off fireworks."
Zhou Yuwei saw her and asked suspiciously, "Tong Xiao, why are you outside?" You won't stay home all night, will you, what have you done? β
That night, Tong Xiao sat in the street garden all night. She returned home early the next morning, and her family didn't know that she hadn't returned all night.
At this moment, the tears could no longer be controlled.
Looking at the couple, his appearance came to mind, kissing a young girl.
After hanging up the phone, Tong Xiao sat on a wooden chair in the garden in the middle of the street, where there were also people setting off fireworks, mostly couples, who were also commemorating this special day with kisses.
"Tong Xiao, forget about him, even if I am with Zhang Linyun, I admit it, and I will sincerely bless you."
"Xinwen, don't say it, you go home. It's time for me to rest, too. β
He was accompanying his little girlfriend to set off fireworks, and the two of them kissed unscrupulously under the brilliant fireworks. Why don't you say he doesn't die! To be alive will only harm innocent girls. β
Tong Xiao didn't speak.
"Tong Xiao, it's zero, do you know what Shen Chenpeng is doing now?"
Zhong Xinwen pestered her and chatted for a while, until the bell rang at zero o'clock.
Tong Xiao's voice was a little low.
"yes, I'm not used to spending the New Year at home."
"My dad is not at home for the New Year, and he visits wΓ¨n outside every day for the New Year, you can't let me go back to accompany my stepmother. Tong Xiao, in the past, I used to be with you every year for the New Year, but this year you are not by my side, I always feel weird. β
"Xinwen, Shen Chenpeng and I are in the past, don't mention it. Don't play with them, girl's house, go home early, it's the New Year today, spend more time with your parents. β
"Tong Xiao, how can you say they can be so excessive, do you know? Shen Chenpeng has a new love by his side, a little girl from the film academy, he often takes him with him now, you know how much I want to beat him, but I don't dare. Such a man should really be cut with a thousand cuts. β
Tong Xiao took a deep breath and said lightly, "Xinwen, it's so late, you better stop drinking outside, hurry up and go home." β
"Tong Xiao, did you hear it all?"
Zhong Xinran pushed Zhong Xinwen out of the private room and roared angrily, "Zhong Xinwen, I kindly took you out to play, don't make trouble for me." You have to call Tong Xiao, and then go in after you are outside. β
"I'm not messing around, what's wrong with me calling my friend? Why, Tong Xiao was dumped by Shen Shao, so I can't call her? Is there such a truth in the world? β
"Zhong Xinwen, if you mess around again, I'll ask the security guard to ask you out."
Shen Chenpeng's brows furrowed even deeper, and his heart was sullen.
Zhong Xinwen pushed her away vigorously, "Don't snatch my phone, on such an important day, I want to call Tong Xiao, I want to ask her if she is doing well, she is the most pitiful woman I have ever seen." β
Zhong Xinran saw Shen Chenpeng's face, and hurriedly walked over to grab Zhong Xinwen's mobile phone.
His eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he looked at the woman who was going crazy with some displeasure.
Zhong Xinwen said deliberately, his voice was very loud, and Shen Chenpeng heard it.
"I'm not drunk, I'm playing outside with my sister, I have a lot of friends, and Shen Shao is also there."
Tong Xiao frowned, "Xinwen, are you drunk?" β
Pressing the answer button, the voice on the other end was very noisy, and Zhong Xinwen's voice was also very loud, "Xiaoxiao, Happy New Year!" β
During the days when she went home, Zhong Xinwen would often call her.
The mobile phone rang suddenly, and it was Zhong Xinwen calling.
Walking aimlessly alone, she gathered the down jacket on her body, still feeling cold.
The weather in Jinjiang is not as cold as in Beijing, but in winter, wearing a thin down jacket, it is still a little cold.
After talking to Zhou Yuwei and Tong Yantian, she went out for a walk.
Tong Xiao left the kitchen, and suddenly felt that this home was a little depressed.
Tong Yantian snorted and scolded, "It's over, don't mention it." Tong Xiao, don't wrap it, wash your hands and go back to your room to rest. β
Tong Xiao's face immediately changed.
"You must not have said it, you are so honest that you will be deceived by men. Tong Xiao, you call me, I'll call him, you have a miscarriage, he doesn't come to see you, you have to be responsible for anything, he should always pay for the expenses during the operation. β
Tong Xiao paused slightly, then reacted, she lowered her head.
Zhou Yuwei suddenly said, "Tong Xiao, did you tell that man about the miscarriage?" β
Tong Xiao also went to the kitchen to help.
As soon as Tong Zi finished eating, he went back to his room to play with the new computer, and his sister and brother-in-law also returned to their own home. Mom and dad are busy making dumplings for breakfast tomorrow.
Now, it's still this family, but it's long gone from the feeling of the past. Even eating has become a formality, and after eating, everyone is busy with their own work.
Tong Xiao is a little nostalgic, many years ago, the atmosphere of the New Year was so strong, she was still a child, and her favorite was this day, not only could she get the New Year's money, but she didn't have to do housework on this day, and she didn't have to be scolded by her mother.
In the evening, the family had a reunion dinner, and my sister and brother-in-law also came over.
ββ
Tong Fei said deliciously, "The second sister has money, the eldest sister has no money, and the eldest sister's money is only enough to buy you a birthday cake." β
After going back, Tong Zi installed and debugged it by himself, and kept saying at home, "It's still the second sister who loves me the most, and I like the second sister the most." β
Tong Xiao was so worn out by him that he couldn't do anything, so he went to the city with him at noon that day and equipped a desktop computer with a relatively high configuration.
Tong Zi, a man in his twenties, actually shook Tong Xiao's arm and coquettishly, "Second sister, you give me a computer, I beg you, I beg you, I can only count on you in this family." β
Zhou Yuwei shouted, "Tong Xiao, I don't believe that you don't have 5,000 yuan, today is my brother's birthday, you haven't come back as a sister for a few years, can you bear to disappoint him?" β
Tong Xiao said in a low voice, "I don't have so much money, my money is all given to my mother." β
"I want to change the computer, I've been using this computer for three years, you bought it for me when I was in college, and now I get stuck when I play games, second sister, you can give me a computer."
Tong Xiao pursed his lips and asked Tong Zi, "What birthday gift do you want?" β
Zhou Yuwei heard it and said to Tong Xiao, "My brother has begged you like this, and you still don't agree?" β
"Second sister, you're so stingy, you can give me a birthday gift."
Tong Xiao smiled and said, "With such a big person, how can he still receive birthday gifts." β
Early in the morning, Tong Zi pestered Tong Xiao and asked, "Second uncle, what birthday gift are you going to give me?" β
The night of Chinese New Year's Eve is also Tong Zi's birthday. On this day, Zhou Yuwei bought a lot of vegetables without hesitation, and Tong Fei ordered a birthday cake in advance.
Before I knew it, it had been 20 days since I returned to Jinjiang, and finally ushered in the next year.
The job search has been hidden from her family, and she wants to wait until she is confirmed and then tell her family.
She submitted several resumes online, and many private schools contacted her. After all, Tong Xiao is also highly educated and has a good work experience, so it shouldn't be too difficult to find a job in this small city.
After being discharged from the hospital for a week, and now her health is much better, Tong Xiao began to look for a job.
Thinking in this way can the mind be more comfortable.
Now that I think about it, I really feel a lot calmer, maybe this child shouldn't have come to this world in the first place. Without a complete home and father's love, even if you come to this wonderful world, you will not be happy.
If she could, she hoped that she could keep it hidden, and it would be enough for one person to suffer, and she didn't want Zhong Xinwen to worry about her in distant Beijing.
Tong Xiao didn't tell anyone about her miscarriage, not even Zhong Xinwen.
ββ
"I see, I'll try to eat as much as I can."
Zhou Yuwei felt that it made sense when she heard it, and said seriously, "Tong Xiao, you must take care of your body, you have to go to work to make money in the future, don't get sick." β
"If you can't eat, you have to eat some, your body must be well-nourished, otherwise what will you do in the future."
Tong Xiao said lightly, "Dad, I can't eat it." β
Tong Yantian looked a little distressed, "Xiaoxiao, tell your mother what you want to eat, and let your mother buy it for you, if you don't eat every day, how can your body stand it." β
Zhou Yuwei would stew some tonic soup for Tong Xiao every day, but this girl refused to drink it, locked herself in her room every day, and only came out for a while when it was time to eat, and she ate very little. After a few days, the whole person has lost weight.
ββ
Zhou Yuwei was terrified, and snorted, "Okay, okay, I know what to do, and I will make up for her." β
"I speak with my conscience!" Tong Yantian said with a stern face, "Don't forget, when the eldest brother left, we got a lot of compensation, and now we should be kind to Xiaoxiao." Big brother has a spirit in the sky, watching us. β
"Did I take it wrong? We've raised her for so long, and now let her repay us, isn't it? Why are you helping her speak? β
Tong Yantian frowned, and snorted, "It's your fault to take her money, how can you take her money without her consent." β
Zhou Yuwei snorted, "Why should we be so good to her, she has money to hide and refuse to give it to us, I took her 20,000 yuan, and she can't wait to quarrel with me." β
Tong Yantian stood outside, and said with a somewhat complicated expression, "Xiaoxiao just had a miscarriage, you can buy some good supplements for her during this time." β
Zhou Yuwei pursed her lips, walked out of Tong Xiao's room, and gently closed the door.
Tong Xiao said tiredly, "Mom, I'm tired, let me rest for a while." β
Zhou Yuwei pouted, "Still lying to me, do you dare to give me the card and let me check it?" β
Tong Xiao shook his head, "It's gone, there's no money in the card." β
"Xiaoxiao, it seems that you have saved a lot of private money. Honestly sΓΉ mom, how much money do you have left in the card? β
Zhou Yuwei closed her mouth and didn't complain more.
All the expenses during the hospitalization were all swiped with Tong Xiao's salary card.
I stayed in the hospital for a whole week, with infusions, blood draws, and all kinds of suffering.
Zhou Yuwei still said sourly in front of her, "Girl, you still have to love yourself in the future, otherwise you will be the one who will suffer." β
Transferred from the operating room to the ward, Tong Xiao seemed to have died once, and he didn't know how many tears flowed.
God was probably punishing her for her indiscretion.
She thinks about things too simply, she thinks about giving birth to a child, even if she doesn't get married in this life, it doesn't matter.
At that moment, a figure suddenly flashed in her mind, and everything she was suffering now was given by that man. She should hate him, but at this moment, how much she wishes he could be by her side, even if it is just to give her a comforting word, she can be stronger.
If she could, she wouldn't want to get pregnant again in her life. I'm scared, it's really painful.
The operation was carried out in the hospital closest to home, Tong Xiao never knew that the uterine evacuation operation was so painful, it was simply not something that people could bear. Lying on the operating table, she was so painful that she wanted to die.
ββ
Zhou Yuwei was angry, "What are you talking about?" I also look at things by facts. You miscarried, and I felt bad, don't think of me as a cruel mother. β
"Mom, don't worry, no matter which hospital you do the surgery in, I won't spend a penny on you."
Zhou Yuwei muttered in a low voice beside her, "How expensive is the city hospital, you have to stay in hospital for at least a few days for surgery, how much does it cost?" It's all uterine evacuation surgery, and it's not the same where it is done, at most there is a pain point, and there is no pain. Besides, the city hospital is so far from home, who can take care of you. β
"Xiaoxiao, do you want to transfer to the hospital? We all listen to you. β
"I may have to have uterine evacuation surgery, but the technology and equipment in our hospital are very limited, so I can be transferred to a city hospital to suffer less pain. Your family can discuss that if the uterine evacuation surgery is not done well, it will affect the future conception. β
Tong Yantian asked the doctor, "Doctor, what should I do next?" β
"Girl, don't be too sad, this is not necessarily related to the expectant mother, it is more likely to be the cause of the embryo, you can't put all the responsibility on yourself."
Tong Xiao cried and squatted down, "It's me who didn't protect the child well, it's that I'm useless." β
Tong Yantian comforted her, "It's okay, it's okay, you're still young, and there will be one in the future." β
When the doctor informed him of the results, Tong Xiao almost fainted, and tears flowed uncontrollably.
"To put it bluntly, it's stillbirth."
They waited until the next morning, where they had a check-up, and the results showed that the fetal heart rate was not touched.
ββ
Zhou Yuwei snorted coldly, "Look, this is more than the taxi fare." β
They rushed to the hospital overnight, but the doctor said they wouldn't be able to do the test until tomorrow.
Tong Yantian rarely got angry, "Is the child important, or is the money important?" Do you still have humanity? β
"How expensive is it to call a taxi so late!"
Tong Yantian was also woken up, got dressed and came out to inquire about the situation. Hearing about Tong Xiao's situation, he hurriedly said, "I have a taxi number, I'll call a taxi immediately." β
Tong Xiao nodded vigorously, she couldn't care so much, at this moment, she just wanted to go to the hospital and make sure the child was okay.
Zhou Yuwei frowned, and said angrily, "Tong Xiao, are you crazy, what time is it now, early in the morning, there is no car at home, how can we go to the hospital, is it difficult to ask your father to take you to the hospital on a motorcycle." β
"No, I'm going to the hospital now, can you accompany me to the hospital?"
"I'll go to the hospital early tomorrow morning for a check-up, and it should be fine."
"Mom, will the baby be okay? Why meet red? β
She was frightened and ran to find Zhou Yuwei, Zhou Yuwei said coldly, "Now that you know that something is looking for me, why don't you hide it and don't give it to me if you have money." β
That night, Tong Xiao saw red when she went to the toilet.
In the end, Tong Xiao still didn't get the money.
"Tong Xiao, I really didn't expect you to secretly hide 20,000 yuan, and I didn't expect you to ask me for this money, our family has no job now, so many people have to eat and eat every day, water and electricity bills, and how much money the family spends. Now that you're pregnant again, you have to buy more groceries every day. Shouldn't this money be given to me? β
Tong Xiao pursed her lips, and her heart throbbed fiercely.
Zhou Yuwei was unhappy, and snorted, "In the month of the Chinese New Year, you eat and drink at home, you always have to pay some living expenses, now it is very expensive to hire a nanny, you are obedient, I will serve you with good food and drink." If you have to go back with 20,000 yuan, then you move out, and I just don't give birth to you. β
"Mom, I beg you to give me back the money, this money is very important to me."
Zhou Yuwei asked with a smile, "What kind of friend, you are so generous, a loan is 20,000 yuan, it won't be the child's father." β
Tong Xiao shouted, "I borrowed this money from a friend to prepare for childbirth." β
"Yes, I took the money. Tong Xiao, you are really, you brought so much money back, and you didn't take the initiative to give it to me, you have to take it yourself, you really shouldn't be. β
Tong Xiao bit his lip, "Isn't it?" β
She raised her eyebrows and asked coldly, "How did you know that I took this money?" β
Zhou Yuwei was sitting in the living room watching TV while eating melon seeds.
"Mom, give me the money back."
Tong Xiao ran to find Zhou Yuwei with an empty envelope.
When I opened the suitcase, I saw that the envelope was still there, and the 20,000 yuan in it was gone.
Tong Xiao gasped and hurried back to his room.
"Sister, if you don't give it to me, it will be taken away by my mother sooner or later, you better buy me a computer, I will remember your goodness, and help you in this family in the future, no one will dare to bully you."
Tong Xiao was stunned.
"Sister, you are less here, Mom said, you have an envelope in your bag, and there are 20,000 yuan in it."
"Tong Zi, I'm sorry, I don't have any money now."
"This computer configuration is too low.,It's always stuck when playing games.,Sister.,You buy me one.,I'm about to have a birthday.,It's my birthday gift.,Okay?"
Tong Xiao frowned, "Don't you have a computer?" β
Tong Zi looked at her with shrewd eyes, and said with a smile, "Second sister, if you really thank me, why don't you give me a computer." β
Because of Tong Zi's words, Tong Xiao didn't have to wash the dishes. She knocked on the door and entered Tong Zi's room and thanked her.
Tong Xiao was cold for a moment, and Zhou Yuwei hurriedly said, "Son, don't make trouble, mom can wash the dishes today." I really don't understand, your second sister didn't treat you very well, why did you protect her so much. β
Tong Zi pursed his lips and said to Tong Xiao's busy figure, "Second sister, don't wash the dishes, I'll help you wash it." β
"Son, your second sister can't see her stomach now, doing some housework is just exercise, when she has a big belly, can I still let her do housework?"
In this family, everyone is afraid of Zhou Yuwei, but what Zhou Yuwei is most afraid of is her son.
Tong Zi sometimes meets volunteers, after dinner that day, Zhou Yuwei instructed Tong Xiao to wash the dishes, Tong Zi said casually, "You bully a pregnant woman like this, should you?" β
Tong Yantian sometimes feels distressed, but he can't be the master in this family, so he can only secretly help her do what he can occasionally and secretly.
After such an unpleasant scene, Tong Xiao's life at home was even more sad, Zhou Yuwei and Tong Fei were working against her everywhere, and Tong Xiao would do any housework at home.
ββ
Tong Xiao gently put his hand on his lower abdomen and said seriously, "I won't give this child to anyone." β
Tong Fei saw it, hurriedly walked over and helped her, and looked at Tong Xiao a little viciously, "Tong Xiao, do you want to make your mother angry?" What's wrong with having a baby for me? If I can have children, I don't want this child. After being married for so many years, the Qiu family has already had a lot of opinions about me. β
Zhou Yuwei almost fainted again.
"You!"
Tong Xiao stretched out his hand and pressed his eyebrows, and said lightly, "Mom, don't say anything, this is my child, I won't give it to anyone." β
Tong Xiao's words provoked Zhou Yuwei's anger, and Zhou Yuwei roared angrily, "Tong Xiao, you don't mess around with me, you are a girl, you gave birth to a child before you got married, what do you let others say, others are not allowed to say that my family has no tutor, and teach this kind of shameless daughter." Besides, if you bring a drag oil bottle, how will you marry in the future, and which man will dare to ask you. Give birth to the child, and then give it to your sister and brother-in-law, they will not treat him badly, and then you honestly go back to Beijing to work, find a rich man in the big city, and help the family. β
Tong Xiao couldn't believe her ears, she sneered and said, "Mom, how can you say such a thing, I am not a tool for giving birth to a child, the child is mine, and I will not give it to anyone after birth." β
Zhou Yuwei seems to have calmed down at the moment, "Last night, I discussed with your father, your sister, and your brother-in-law, you give birth to this child, and after giving birth, you will pass on to your sister and brother-in-law, your sister has been married for so many years, and she has not been born, we are thinking about letting her adopt one, and you give birth to one for them, so that they are complete and will not drag you down." β
Tong Xiao walked over to open the door and said firmly, "Mom, I won't take this child off." β
Zhou Yuwei ran out of the door and knocked hard one by one.
The next morning, she was a little afraid to go out.
ββ
Zhou Yuwei was still abusing her in the living room with filthy language, Tong Xiao covered her ears with a quilt pillow, how she hoped that the world could calm down.
Tong Xiao went back to the room and locked the door.
Tong Xiao stood up and said in an indifferent voice, "I don't need you to raise it, I will raise it myself." β
"No explanation, no explanation. I'll go to the hospital tomorrow and get the baby out. Our family doesn't have that much money to raise an illegitimate child for you. β
"Mom, that's not the case, that person is not married yet."
Zhou Yuwei fainted on the sofa, "How did I give birth to such a shameless thing as you, living is a scourge to the world." β
"What else is there to say! When has my Tong family ever had such a shameless woman. Maybe that man still has a family, my God, I watch TV at home every day, and when I see the mistress on TV destroying other people's families, I can't wait to go up and smoke her. But in the end, my daughter also became someone else's junior, and she was pregnant with someone else's illegitimate child. β
"Don't be impulsive, listen to your child speak clearly."
Zhou Yuwei stretched out her hand and wanted to give Tong Xiao a slap, but Tong Yantian stopped her.
"It's my wishful thinking that loves him, and he doesn't know the existence of this child."
Zhou Yuwei was a little breathless, "Tong Xiao, what do you mean, you are pregnant with a child, the child's father will not marry you, you explain it to me." β
"He won't marry me."
"If you're not married, whose child are you pregnant? Find out the man and let's discuss the details of the wedding and the gift money. β
Tong Xiao gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "I'm not married." β
Tong Yantian drank a sip of tea and spewed out, while Zhou Yuwei stood up 'Teng', pointed at Tong Xiao's nose, and jumped like thunder, "Tong Xiao, your wings are stiff, you dare to hide from us to get married, how much money the man gave, all of them were swallowed by you, right?" β
Tong Xiao twisted his hands tightly together and whispered word by word, "I, I'm pregnant." β
"What are you talking about, what are you doing!"
Tong Xiao sat down on the sofa, took a deep breath, and said in a low voice in her crisp voice, "Dad, Mom, there is something I want to tell you." β
"Thank you, brother-in-law."
Qiu Hao stood up and said politely, "Tong Xiao, you sit, you haven't come back for a long time, let's talk to my parents for a while." β
Tong Xiao washed the dishes and went to the hall, there were so many people at home, occupying every position on the sofa.
Zhou Yuwei's words in this family are the most weighty. Even Tong Yantian listened to her.
Zhou Yuwei snorted, "Housework was originally done by women, you two big men don't have to join in the fun, and it won't be the turn of the two of you to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade." β
Dad and brother-in-law were a little reluctant to go, and both of them rushed to wash.
Tong Xiao didn't say much, put away the dishes and chopsticks, and consciously went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
Tong Fei hurriedly said, "Tong Xiao go wash it, I wash it every day when you're not at home, let me relax today." β
Dinner ended in a not very pleasant atmosphere, her son didn't eat dinner, Zhou Yuwei was in a bad mood, and ordered lightly, "Tong Xiao Tongfei, which of you go wash the dishes, I'm tired." β
Tong Xiao looked at it and sighed in his heart, this is the habitual baby they have held in the palm of their hands since childhood, and they don't necessarily have much filial piety to his parents. In many cases, things must be reversed.
Tong Zi directly pushed Zhou Yuwei out of the room and closed the door with a bang.
"Son, you eat a little bit, or you say, what do you want to eat, mom go out and buy it."
"It's rare for the second sister to come back, you should go and ask the second sister what she wants to eat. Don't bother me, I'm going to play the game. β
Zhou Yuwei hurriedly chased after her, and flattered her with a good voice, "Son, my mother is wrong, my mother will no longer be greedy for small gains in the future, I will go to the big vegetable market tomorrow to buy vegetables, and my mother will buy whatever you want to eat." β
Tong Zi said and ran back to his room.
Tong Zi slapped the chopsticks on the dining table and said unhappily, "If you don't eat it, it's really unpalatable, and when the second uncle comes back, you can't buy more food." β
Tong Yantian snorted, "Your mother is greedy for a small bargain, I asked her to go to the big vegetable market, but she refused, so I bought some from the small vegetable market nearby." β
Tong Xiao and Tong Fei didn't dare to say anything, and Tong Zi asked, "Mom, where did you buy these dishes?" Not too fresh. β
The dinner that day was quite rich, but a few dishes didn't seem to be very fresh.
ββ
Tong Fei sank his face and said angrily, "I knew you were just coaxing me." β
Tong Xiao frowned and frowned, and said lightly, "Not this time." β
"Otherwise, this time, when you go to Beijing after the New Year, I will go to live with you for a few days."
Tong Xiao nodded, "It's true." Take you to see the places where I once lived. β
Tong Fei looked surprised, held Tong Xiao's hand and said, "Really? You're not coaxing me, are you? β
"Sister, if you have a chance in the future, I will take you there."
"Every time I say I want to go to Beijing, your brother-in-law scolds me, saying that I won't make money, only spend money."
Tong Fei's pursuit is very low, but with such low requirements, her brother-in-law has never met her.
"Tong Xiao, tell me about your life in Beijing over the years, I haven't been to the capital since I was so old, I really hope that your brother-in-law can take me there once in my lifetime."
"Sister, I know, I'll think about it."
Tong Fei sighed and said with emotion, "Tong Xiao, you can't pick anymore, when a girl is older, it will be difficult to find a partner." If you pick someone else, others will pick you, and our family's conditions are not good, so find someone who is about the same to marry. β
"I haven't thought about getting married yet."
"In this way, Tong Xiao, you are not young anymore, why don't you find a partner? Isn't it too demanding? When I was your age, I got married. β
Tong Fei threw out so many questions at once, Tong Xiao just smiled faintly, "I really don't have a boyfriend, my good friend called just now, girl." β
Tong Fei pursed her lips, "Tong Xiao, don't lie to me, I'm from here, tell me quickly, is your boyfriend from Beijing?" What for? Handsome or not? What works? β
"No, I don't have a boyfriend."
Tong Fei walked over and grabbed her arm, and said shyly, "Tong Xiao, as soon as you get home, you have a phone call, and you have been calling for so long, is it your boyfriend?" β
Tong Xiao frowned and asked, "Sister, is there something wrong?" β
chatted with Zhong Xinwen for a while, and when she hung up the phone, she found that Tong Fei had entered her room at some point and was looking at her with an ambiguous expression.
"Don't worry, I'm not a child anymore, I'll take care of myself."
"What's their reaction, call me later." Zhong Xinwen told me a thousand times over there, "Tong Xiao, if you have anything uncomfortable, you must call me." Also, take care of yourself. β
Tong Xiao's expression became a little strict, and he said in a low voice, "I plan to sue them at night." β
"Did your parents know you were pregnant?"
Tong Xiao smiled and said seriously, "Of course it's good, I haven't been home for so many years." My parents went to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, and I will have a good time tonight. β
"Are your parents good to you?"
"It's home, just got home for a while."
"Tong Xiao, are you home?" The other end asked.
Seeing that it was Zhong Xinwen calling, the corners of her mouth hooked shallowly and pressed the answer button.
Tong Xiao was packing up in the room when his mobile phone rang.
ββ
What she said was the truth, it was he who was useless that would make Tong Xiao suffer. Sometimes he thinks about how happy Tong Xiao would be now if it wasn't for that car accident and if his brother and sister-in-law hadn't died.
Zhou Yuwei mocked mercilessly, and Tong Yantian didn't say anything more.
"That's not their dad very useless."
Tong Yantian took a deep breath and sighed lightly, "As the daughter of our family, it's really pitiful." β
Listening to Tong Yantian's words, Zhou Yuwei became angry and roared, "What are you talking about?" I gave birth to her and raised her, do you think it is not difficult, now that she is working in Beijing and is soaring, shouldn't she be filial to us? Her dedication to this family is all taken for granted. If we hadn't brought her home that year, our family wouldn't have been so burdened. Tong Yantian, I sue you, you don't have the ability to make money yourself, and you are not allowed to take it with your daughter. If you are like someone else, make money for me to see, then I won't take money from Xiaoxiao. β
"Xiaoxiao has paid a lot for this family over the years, and she has been working very hard, and occasionally go home to reunite with her family, so don't nag in front of her. Also, Xiaoxiao can give us 5,000 is already very good, last time I was sick and gave 10,000, she is a girl after all, how much money can she make outside, she has to get married in the future, and she has to save some dowry for herself, so don't always take money from her. β
"It's estimated that I won't leave until the end of the New Year, and in a month's time, you're still afraid that I won't make good food for her. I really don't understand this girl, it's good to earn some extra money in Beijing during the holidays, and I'm not afraid of boredom when I run back. β
Tong Yantian frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "It's rare for my daughter to come back, how can you be afraid of trouble." β
Zhou Yuwei snorted disappreciatively, "If you want to go alone, I won't go, I have to burn it when I buy it, I'm afraid of trouble." β
In order to celebrate Tong Xiao's return, Zhou Yuwei took Tong Yantian to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, and there was a very small vegetable market ten minutes' walk from their community. However, Tong Yantian said, "Let's go to the big vegetable market in the city, there will be no more vegetables in the small vegetable market at this time." β
