Chapter 12: Zhao Ze's troubles
On the closed train windows, rain trickles down the glass, and cracked lightning arcs in the clouds.
Zhao Ze leaned his right hand against the window and chin on his chin, looking out of the window boredly.
Taking the train is already a commonplace for Zhao Ze, and he used to travel often due to work, so in his memory, many memorable things happened on the way to the train. But today's riding mentality is completely different from the original times.
Zhao Ze's mood at this time was very complicated, probably because he knew about Molly's pregnancy, which made him unconsciously recall the son he once had. Since losing his beloved son, Zhao Ze has tried to completely lock that memory in his heart. But today's Molly's pregnancy once again reawakened the memory buried deep in his heart.
I have to say that in fact, he was happy to hear the news, because he could finally have an explanation to his parents. As the saying goes, 'there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is greater.' As the eldest son of this family, he has the mission of inheriting the lineage. After all, my parents are almost eighty years old, and I don't know how long I can stay with me. It is estimated that if this news is told to them now, the old couple will definitely be very happy.
Since that incident, parents have forced their younger brother to have children. His younger brother himself belongs to the Dink family, and as early as when he got married, he had already issued a statement at home that he decided not to have children. Moreover, because Zhao Ze already had a child at that time, his parents did not ask his younger brother for anything.
But after that incident, every time his parents saw his younger brother, the two of them nagged him endlessly. Say that your brother has not remarried yet, as a son, you must be filial to your parents, while your daughter-in-law is still young, hurry up and give birth to a grandson for our old couple, and say that the incense of the old Zhao family continues, just count on his younger brother Zhao Yang, and Zhao Yang does not dare to go to his parents' house.
Until the eve of the Spring Festival the year before last, his younger brother Zhao Yang suddenly announced to his family that he and Xiao Yingxuan (former brother-in-law) had gone through the divorce procedures at the Civil Affairs Bureau. When the mother heard the news, she was furious and claimed to sever the mother-son relationship with her younger brother Zhao Yang. And it was precisely because of this incident that his mother suffered from cerebral infarction and Alzheimer's disease (commonly known as Alzheimer's disease), and Zhao Yang's divorce was settled.
The news of Jasmine's pregnancy did make Zhao Ze happy for a while. But somehow, Zhao Ze himself couldn't be happy. After all, that unbearable past has caused a huge shadow on Zhao Ze's psychology, and this reason is only one of them.
The second is that Zhao Ze's parents are nearly eighty years old, and Molly's father is a widower, so he can't help at all. Judging from the current situation, once Molly gives birth to a child, Zhao Ze has to bear the two things of serving the confinement and taking care of the child.
Although Zhao Ze can also do this, but two people are at home at the same time, which means that the family income cannot make ends meet. Not to mention the fact that during this time, household expenses will increase dramatically. And now Zhao Ze's several credit cards have also been overdrawn to the limit.
In the past few months, Molly has helped herself pay off part of the arrears, but it is also a drop in the bucket, but it only delays the time when her credit is overdue.
Zhao Ze also disappointed Molly for a long time because of this incident, and the marriage relationship between the two was on the verge of collapse. Zhao Ze began to think that Molly had completely given up on himself at the moment when she resolutely left him and set foot on the North Drift again. During the time of living separately for half a year, I gave up on myself even more, staying at home all day with nothing to do, and every day was like living a retirement life in advance.
It wasn't until this year's Spring Festival that Molly went home on vacation, and the relationship between the two eased slightly. may also be the reason why they have been separated for so long, at a friend's party, Zhao Ze drank a lot of wine that day. When he went home, Zhao Ze was already drunk, and Molly kept carrying him back.
finally returned home, and Molly wasted a lot of effort to get the drunk Zhao Ze to bed. Then he took off Zhao Ze's dirty clothes and pants, called hot water again, carefully scrubbed Zhao Ze, and then mixed a glass of honey water for Zhao Ze to drink, and finally settled Zhao Ze to sleep.
After all this, Molly went to work on her own business, changing pajamas, removing makeup, and taking a shower.
When Molly returned to the bed after freshening up, lay next to Zhao Ze, and pulled the quilt to sleep, Zhao Ze suddenly turned around from the bed, pulled Molly over, and hugged her tightly in his arms. Molly was still a little struggling and resisting at first, but as Zhao Ze lingered wildly, Molly gradually ......
In fact, Zhao Ze was not drunk at all at the wine table that night, with Zhao Ze's amount of alcohol, how could he get drunk with just a little wine. The whole night was played for Molly, which is really a drunkard's intention not to drink. Zhao Ze actually just wanted to see if Molly still cared about him. But Molly's meticulous care this night made Zhao Ze also very moved, knowing that Molly still loves him very much. Perhaps it was that night-long lingering that made Molly pregnant with her own child.
Every time he thinks of what happened that night, Zhao Ze laughs out loud. If it weren't for his own wonderful performance that night, maybe he and Molly might have really become strangers.
'Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Shengjing Railway Bureau Fuxing high-speed EMU train! The arrival station in front of the train is Tianjin Railway Station, and the train stops for one minute, so please prepare to get off the train when you get off at Tianjin Railway Station. Due to the short stop time of the train, please do not leave the carriage if you have not arrived at the station. The sound of the arrival announcement came from the high-speed rail broadcast horn.
Zhao Ze looked at his watch, it was 20:20 now, and there was still one stop to go to the capital. The rain outside seemed to have stopped, and looking out of the window, you could see sporadic lights.
Zhao Ze only felt that he was hungry at this time, when he first got on the train, the train attendant once walked in the aisle with a lunch box, Zhao Ze also asked about the price of fast food, and the conductor told him 40 yuan a box. Zhao Ze hesitated for a moment, and then smiled at the conductor and said thank you, but he slandered in his heart that the things sold by the high-speed rail train were simply robbery.
Forget it, bear with me, and eat with Molly when you get to the capital.
Zhao Ze stood up and stretched his waist, only to find that there were few people in the carriage he was in. Some people in the car even lay sideways in the seats of the three rows.
Zhao Ze re-seated in the meeting position, took out the bottle of iced tea he bought before getting into the car and drank half of it from the back pocket of the front seat, and then pressed a button on the handle of the seat, adjusted his seat backwards to the extreme, lay in the seat and closed his eyes, waiting for the arrival of the end of the capital.
