Chapter 1 On the way to work
The raging snowflakes fell one after another, and the bitter cold wind blew on the faces of the pedestrians one after another, as if they had been scraped by a knife. The branches of poplars and willows on both sides of the road danced wildly in the wind, and the dry branches made a clattering sound from time to time. The withered grass in the green belt on both sides of the road shivered in the wind and made a rustling sound.
Yu Fangfang subconsciously shrunk her neck, wrapped her scarf tighter, and walked quickly towards home. This year's weather has been unusually cold. The place where she works is not far from home, and it only takes seven or eight minutes to walk back. But in this weather, the journey of seven or eight minutes also becomes difficult. Yu Fangfang simply ran, although running in the cold wind will make the cold air enter the respiratory tract very quickly, making the breathing uncomfortable, but you can go home quickly.
Yu Fangfang returned home and finished dinner, cleaned up the kitchen, and cleaned the house. She likes to clean up the house after dinner in the evening.
After finishing all the housework, Yu Fangfang pulled the thin quilt and nested in the sofa as usual, watching TV and reading WeChat. She has a small hobby, that is, she especially likes to watch the owners of their garden community group chat, every day whose dog poops in the elevator and does not clean, whose child pushes the pregnant woman, whose car is scratched, whose car is parked in the wrong parking space, or downstairs says that you don't wear high heels to walk around the house, and so on some trivial household things, although every day is these contents, Yu Fangfang reads it with relish every time. She rarely participates in chatting, and most of the time she dives.
Just when everyone was discussing whether the community should park or not, suddenly a missing person revelation sent by the owner made everyone instantly silent.
A female teacher from No. 3 Middle School left her two children and ran away from home at 1:20 a.m. last night after a verbal altercation with her family, and finally disappeared from a surveillance footage on the riverside bridge at 2:20 a.m. and never appeared. Judging from the surveillance footage sent, the female teacher was wearing thin pajamas, and she was only wearing the kind of sandals on her feet that were in summer. Yu Fangfang sat up from the sofa after seeing the news, what kind of quarrel happened on such a cold day to run away from home, she couldn't help but shudder, as if she was the one who ran away from home in the middle of the night and was cold. Yu Fangfang has always been a sympathetic person.
After a moment of silence, the group boiled again.
"What a big deal to run away from home in the middle of the night."
"It must be a family conflict."
"Parents quarrel, children suffer."
"If you go out with so little wear, you must be confused by anger."
"I went out like this, and my family didn't know how to stop it, so I let it out."
"All the owners can help forward it in your circle of friends and other WeChat groups, there are two children in the family, one is one year old and nine months old, and the other is only four months old, and they are still breastfeeding. Children need moms. Whoever saw it advised her to hurry home. This female teacher also lives in our garden community and is a relative of our family. Please, neighbors. "The owner who sent the search notice just now sent another message.
Yu Fangfang hurriedly copied the message and sent it to several other chat groups, and also forwarded it in the circle of friends.
What is it that makes a woman leave her two toddlers to run away from home in this weather of more than ten degrees below zero, and it is still the middle of the night, wearing only thin pajamas and the kind of sandals that you wear in summer.
The group was still discussing this matter, and Yu Fangfang fell into deep thought: how desperate was it to choose to run away from home in this cold night, and there were two young children at home.
"Could it be postpartum depression?"
A female landlord in the group raised such a question.
Postpartum depression is postpartum depression again.
"Women nowadays are so hypocritical, if they don't give birth to a child, they will be depressed."
"That's right, I used to give birth to seven or eight children, none of them were depressed, all the farm work and housework were done, and the in-laws and children were all taken care of, and now women, I think they are all idle."
A burst of fire surged in Yu Fangfang's chest.
"You are not afraid of being struck by lightning when you say this, are you right about your mother? Something with a wolf's heart and a dog's lungs. After sending this message, Yu Fangfang turned off her mobile phone and went to the bedroom to rest.
Yu Fangfang was alone at home, and her husband went to Xi'an to help a friend at the beginning of the month.
The cold wind outside was still roaring wantonly, whimpering and sighing sadly.
In April of this year, Yu Fangfang also suffered from postpartum depression because of a miscarriage, but no one knew that Yu Fangfang survived by herself. During that time, it was like purgatory, Yu Fangfang's temper became extremely strange, she lost her temper inexplicably, cried inexplicably, sometimes wanted to commit suicide, wanted to stab herself to death with a knife, and wanted to ......
Yu Fangfang subconsciously touched her belly, and a little life was born here, although this little life brought hope to herself, but when she thought of the child who had a miscarriage, Yu Fangfang's heart hurt again, making her a little suffocated, and tears flowed down wantonly. She fell asleep in a trance in this heartache and tears.
