Chapter 271: Temptation
When I went home, I saw a quiet atmosphere, very weird, Xiaohui and her sister Xiaoman sat at both ends of the table, and the two of them didn't speak, just quietly looked at their respective mobile phones, and looked up at their watches from time to time, as if they were waiting for something.
After I came back, I said hello to Xiaohui after entering the door, and said to Xiaoman: "I will cook for you after work early today, what do you want to eat?" It just so happened that Xiaohui came, so I'll do more today. No one responded for a long time, and the atmosphere was very embarrassing, so I stood up and said to Xiao Man: "Xiao Man, I'll make you what you want to eat today." ”
Xiao Man looked down at me, and after playing with his phone for a long time, I scratched my head and asked, "What's wrong?" Not happy today? Xiao Man replied to me: "I feel that you are not the same as usual today, I went to pay the phone bill today, I looked through your call history by the way, your call record has recently had a lot of strangers calling, and there are quite a lot of times, especially the number of 138." ”
"Oh, I guess it's a business connection, and then what?" I pretended to be light-hearted.
"Then I tuned it out, it's all Xiaohui's under this phone, how do you explain this?" She said with a puzzled expression. When Xiaohui heard this, her face swollen and red, and she said, "Really? I forgot that I registered this phone number, oh, I remember, the last time I called my brother-in-law, it was to tell him that I won't be here this week, I called you and didn't get through, you see how many calls I made to you last time. ”
Xiao Man wondered, "Really?" ”
Xiaohui said: "Yes, yes, sister, you can see it yourself, you see that there are so many on my mobile phone, what about the record of calling you, look at your memory, don't you even save your sister's phone?" Hmph, I am angry that you don't even have my number. ”
"Hey, aren't you that phone number? Why are you this again? Xiao Man asked.
"That person has several phone numbers, I used it last time, it was about to shut down, this time I changed to a new number, didn't they all say that the telecommunications network is better? And now it's more cost-effective, I have a new traffic plan. Xiaohui quickly explained.
"Oh, I see, look at me, then why are you calling your brother-in-law so much?" Xiao Man asked.
"I didn't know it was her phone, and the call was an unfamiliar number, I didn't know it very well, so I didn't answer it much. Besides, you don't even have Xiaohui's phone number, how can I have it? "Hurry up and add a sentence. Xiao Man laughed when he heard it: "I've been lately, oops, I've really been lately, I've been too cranky, is it true that people are like this when they are pregnant?"
"Sister, pregnant people are so terrible, how can they all become like this? When I'm pregnant, I love to think cranky, you must not think like that, we are sisters, and you make me very sad like this. Xiaohui pouted.
"Okay, okay, I know it's wrong, I shouldn't think so, okay, hey, Zheng Yu, didn't you just say you were going to eat? What are you going to cook? Xiaohui and I are hungry, I want to eat hot and sour shredded potatoes, mapo tofu, and a boiled pork slice, preferably in a sauerkraut fish, I don't know what's going on recently, I especially want to eat sour and spicy. Xiaohui, what do you want to eat when you are pregnant? Xiao Man asked carefully.
"Sister, I'm just different from you, I want to eat sweet, I want to eat sweet and sour tenderloin, just sweet and sour tenderloin." Xiaohui said mischievously.
"Okay, okay, I'll ask your brother-in-law to do it for you, did Zheng Yu hear that? Just a few, hot and sour shredded potatoes, mapo tofu, boiled pork slices, sauerkraut fish and sweet and sour tenderloin. Xiao Man laughed.
"Okay, okay, received, wife, I will try my best to make you a delicious dinner according to your instructions, you just look at Haole, before this, I will wash some fruit for you, you and your sister will eat fruit first, and my five-star cooking skills will arrive soon, make sure you eat well, and you want to eat this meal and want to eat the next meal." After saying that, he smiled at them and walked into the kitchen.
I don't know what Xiaohui is doing today, I must find a chance to ask her later. After cooking, he saw that Xiao Man was satisfied and full, and he was very happy in his heart, thinking that fortunately, his cooking skills were not wasted. After Xiao Man finished eating, I quickly cleaned up the table and said to Xiao Man: "The current company is suddenly a little urgent, so I will go back to the company first, and I will come back immediately after I finish processing." I'm sorry, my wife. I said.
"Okay, okay, you can go." Xiao Man hurriedly said: "Pay attention to safety on the road."
"Okay I know, then I'll go first, I drove to the café. Send WeChat to Xiaohui and say, you come out, I'll wait for you at the corner café, I have sent you the address, you come over and I'll ask you something. After Xiaohui came over, I asked her directly and unceremoniously: "Xiaohui, what are you doing at home today?" ”
"I didn't do anything." She said it with an innocent face.
"Since you didn't do anything? Why is the atmosphere at home so tense? I asked.
"Brother-in-law, you really misunderstood, I really didn't do anything."
"Really? Don't lie to me. I accentuated.
"I just said, what if I have a baby in my belly and I want to give birth? It turns out that you came back before I was finished. She said.
"Then what did Xiao Man say at the time?" I asked her.
"My sister was very serious, there was a rare silence, and she didn't speak, and you came back just as she was about to start talking, so you didn't have time to say anything." Xiaohui said directly.
"Oh, I see, okay, I know, then I'll accompany you to do an amniocentesis in a few days, if the child is really mine, then we are going to start a showdown, in addition, you also pay attention to nutrition, if you need it, if you need money, you can tell me, I can call you in time."
"Okay brother-in-law, thank you." Xiaohui said.
"It's okay, okay, I'm going back to accompany Xiaoman, be careful on your own road, pay attention to safety, goodbye." Also, I want to tell you, don't in the future, unless I'm present, don't talk to Xiaoman about your child easily, I think she is more sensitive to this child, you don't let her be hurt again, do you understand what I mean? I said solemnly.
"I see, brother-in-law."
"Well, that's good, then you go first." I continued to stay at the café for a while, and only after making sure that Xiaohui was far away did I walk in the direction of home. Xiaohui's matter should also be on the agenda, so I'll ask Xiaoman's opinion tonight.
When I got home, I put the key on the cabinet and asked her, "Xiaoman, what did Xiaohui say to you today?" When I saw you come in, it was very tense. ”
Xiao Man said casually: "I didn't say anything, I said don't lie to me, I can make ideas for you." Hearing this, Xiao Man said: "She wants to give birth to the child, and I don't know what to do, so I didn't answer her." ”
I said, "So what's going on in your mind?" Do you want her to give birth to the baby? Xiaoman said: "After all, she is just a 21-year-old simple college student, I actually, I have no idea in my heart, on the one hand, I am afraid that she will suffer after losing this child, on the other hand, I am also afraid that no one will raise this child, she is only a single mother, it is also a very hard and painful thing, so I can't make up my mind." ”
