Chapter 22 The heart is like water
Xuan Ziyi saw her daughter Mengxuan's small body lying on a wood-gray plank, and because it was flooded, her whole body was swollen to the point of deformation. Xuan Ziyi howled and cried, and no one could hold it back.
Xuan Ziyi cried until her throat was hoarse, and she couldn't make a sound at all before she lay indifferently next to her daughter's body, He Jing and her sister dragged Xuan Ziyi to the room, and Xuan Ziyi fell asleep after falling tired on the bed.
When Xuan Ziyi woke up, she couldn't find Xiao Mengxuan's body, He Jing was afraid that she would make trouble, so he sent the child directly to the funeral home for cremation while she was asleep.
Xuan Ziyi was so angry that she didn't even have time to inform her parents. She later figured out that yes, it seemed that it was too much for the child who was only a year old to hold a ceremony, and He Jing hurriedly buried the child's urn and rushed back to Shenzhen.
Life is so magical, so Xuan Ziyi is a little overwhelmed, and Meng Xuan's death disrupted the last trace of nostalgia between Xuan Ziyi and He Jing. The child was originally a thread that was still involved between her and He Jing, but now the thread is broken. The two were driving on the way back to Shenzhen with mixed feelings.
"You don't want to spend time with me?" He Jing read it from Xuan Ziyi's eyes.
"What about you?" Xuan Ziyi's voice was hoarse, but she still asked He Jing.
"I don't want to live with you, we can regenerate children, we are still young." What He Jing said sounded very sincere.
"Can you tell me now why you divorced your ex-wife?" Xuan Ziyi asked He Jing in a hoarse voice.
"Why do you ask this?" He Jing was easily reacted by Xuan Ziyi's sudden question.
"I want to know now, it's okay if you don't want to say it." Xuan Ziyi paused and said.
"What do you want me to say?" He Jing asked.
"I don't know, I just vaguely suspect that your mother doesn't like girls." Xuan Ziyi stared at He Jing's eyes.
"What are you talking about?" He Jing's hand holding the steering wheel suddenly trembled, and the car braked suddenly.
"Forget it, you drive, we're not going to talk about it." Xuan Ziyi thought of the safety of the two and closed her mouth. He Jing didn't answer anymore and held the steering wheel steadily. He didn't want to talk to Xuan Ziyi about his ex-wife, because what Xuan Ziyi said touched the most painful past in his heart.
Xiaoyuan was born to him and his first girlfriend, but Xiaoyuan's biological mother was not actually married to him, and the reason was indeed related to his mother. Xuan Ziyi's questioning made him fall into memory.
He Jing's first girlfriend was his high school classmate, and they got along well when they were in school. His first girlfriend's name was Ning Junjing, and she depended on her mother for her life. My father died of lung cancer, and according to his girlfriend, he died when she was eight years old. Ning Junjing sat in the back seat of him. So the two often chat, and their relationship is increasing day by day. He Jing waited for Ning Junjing to go to school together every day, and the two also went home together after school.
On the eve of the college entrance examination, the two were found to be in love by the teacher and called the parents of both parties, and He Jing's mother hated Ning Junjing very much. Although the two were separated, they were not admitted to college due to low mood. After that, the two began to run away from home to work in Shenzhen, and stayed together for four years, Ning Junjing wanted to marry He Jing after she became pregnant with Xiaoyuan. But He Jing's mother just disagreed, saying that if she was born a female baby, she was not allowed to get married, and she was only married if she was a male baby. Because to get a marriage certificate, you need to get a household registration book, and in the end, Ning Junjing was born in a black clinic. After giving birth to Xiaoyuan, Ning Junjing did not get a marriage certificate with He Jing, and suddenly disappeared. He Jing looked for it, but in the end he found nothing. Ning Junjing and her mother disappeared at the same time, and He Jing was never seen again. After that, the relationship between He Jing and his mother became a little worse, and it was not eased until He Jing's sister got married.
"Let's calm down for a while. I'll give you the answer later. When He Jing sent Xuan Ziyi to the company's dormitory, Xuan Ziyi said to He Jing in a hoarse voice.
"It's okay, I'm still willing to wait." When He Jing turned to leave, his eyes were still full of affection when he looked at Xuan Ziyi, and Xuan Ziyi's heart trembled again.
As soon as Xuan Ziyi walked into the dormitory, all the roommates gathered around again.
"How did your baby die?"
"Alas, drowned." Xuan Ziyi's voice became even hoarse at this time, and her roommates didn't hear clearly.
"Don't disturb Ziyi, I'm tired for the past two days, hurry up and let her wash and sleep." Qin Li relieved Xuan Ziyi again.
"Thank you." Xuan Ziyi tried her best to find out the sound of these two words, Xuan Ziyi really didn't want to mention this matter again, because she was too tired, she hugged Qin Li, took her clothes and went to the bathroom to freshen up.
When Xuan Ziyi came out of the bathroom after washing, it was already more than 23 o'clock in the night. Although the roommates were all lying on the bed, they were obviously not asleep, and Xuan Ziyi gently walked back to her bed. She stared at the ceiling and couldn't sleep anyway. The child's smiling face, the child's first mother, the child's newborn appearance. Her heart was broken, the side of the pillow was wet, tears streaming down her cheeks again, and she couldn't sleep all night.
The next morning, when Xuan Ziyi got up, Qin Li had already helped Xuan Ziyi get breakfast from the cafeteria.
"Eat, I guess you didn't sleep well last night, and I see you slept a little heavy in the morning." Qin Li put eggs, steamed buns, and soy milk in front of Xuan Ziyi's bed.
Xuan Ziyi's voice was so hoarse that she still couldn't make a sound, so she had to wink at Qin Li to express her gratitude.
"You better not go to work today, have a good day of rest in the dormitory, and you can't speak anyway. At noon, I will fetch you food and come back, and no one will know about your return, so you can rest assured. Qin Li continued to add, she looked at the haggard Xuan Ziyi and felt distressed in her eyes.
Xuan Ziyi nodded vigorously to Qin Li, full of gratitude to Qin Li in her heart. Women can always be more intimate in helping women, and women are naturally full of sympathy for those who are weaker than themselves, and they will tend to help those who are weaker than themselves. Qin Li never dreamed that she would win double the rewards after helping Xuan Ziyi, sometimes when others were in danger, she just stretched out her hand within her ability, but she gained the most important noble person in her life.
All the effort will pay off, it's only a matter of time. So you have to be there for others when they need it, because you don't know when you will need help yourself.
After Xuan Ziyi rested in the dormitory for a day, she no longer had any hope for the relationship with He Jing and the home where she got married. What is called the heart is like stopping water, she realized it at this time.
On this day, she picked up a rare book, which she borrowed from the company library, she wanted to read it when she was in college, but she didn't have time to read it, the name of the book is "Reminiscences".
She quietly flipped through it, looking back on her own married life, as if in a dream, and now the dream seemed to be coming to an end. Yes, when will it really end? She asked herself.
