Cheng Jiahua went out all night and never came back.

She barely slept, and when it was dawn, she got up and stared at the light outside the window for a long time, and then called for the two children to get up. The child was troubled all night, and he didn't sleep well, he rubbed his eyes, opened his mouth wide and yawned.

"Mom, didn't cook?" Cheng Lin washed up, walked around the kitchen, and came back and asked.

"Buy yourself something to eat." He didn't think about it, and took out four one-dollar bills from his pocket and divided them among two for each person. Cheng Yan wanted to say that Uncle Zheng gave her money yesterday, but when she saw her mother's expression, she swallowed her words back, accepted the money, and went out with her younger brother with her schoolbag one after another.

Today, the school leaders are going to inspect, so I only went to school for half a day, and I have a holiday in the afternoon. Cheng Yan didn't want to go home quickly because he saw his parents quarreling last night, so he rubbed on the road for a while. When she got home, lunch was ready, she lifted the curtain and entered the house, and saw her mother sitting at the table with her arms in a daze, Cheng Lin had already come back, holding a rice bowl and picking up rice in her mouth.

When He Tu saw her come in, his face immediately sank, and he scolded: "Cheap hoof, where did you go?" Your brother came back on time, why did you come back at this time? You're just like your daddy! Unproductive sluts! ”

Cheng Yan was stunned for two seconds, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you scolding me inexplicably." ”

"What's wrong with scolding you? You fell out of my stomach and I can't scold you anymore? I'm still beating you! He said that he was about to hit her, but he paused, sighed in annoyance, and sat back.

The food was very fragrant, but Cheng Yan didn't have much appetite to eat. She put down her schoolbag, took two sipes, and was about to do her homework, but when she walked to the door of the living room, she couldn't help but be stunned when she smelled a rush of wine.

On a cold day, I saw Cheng Jiahua lying on the sofa, only covered with a thin blanket, his face was flushed, and his eyes were slightly closed. Cheng Yan had never seen her father like this, and her heart suddenly ached, she threw down her schoolbag, walked over slowly, and squatted down next to the sofa, but she didn't know what to say.

Cheng Jiahua heard the sound, opened his eyes, and saw his daughter squatting next to him, he was about to smile and comfort her, but as soon as the corners of his mouth twitched, his eyes turned red, and then tears fell, wetting the sofa cushion under his head.

Cheng Yan saw her father crying, although he immediately raised his hand to wipe away his tears, but her heart seemed to be pulled hard, her nose was sore, and she also shed tears. She raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and said aggrievedly: "Dad, don't sleep here, it's cold." ”

Cheng Jiahua shook his head, closed his eyes, hammered his left chest with his right hand, and said with difficulty: "Dad hurts here, do you know?" ”

Cheng Yan couldn't hold back any longer, and cried on his father.

While the father and daughter were comforting each other, Hetu appeared at the door of the living room. She looked at the scene in front of her funny, hugged her arms, and said coldly: "What about you two crying to death? ”

Cheng Yan heard the voice, turned his head, wiped away his tears, and didn't want to answer. Cheng Jiahua was drunk, his head was dizzy, and he couldn't sit steadily, so he didn't speak. He didn't get a response for a long time, and he couldn't help but have a smile on his face, sneered again, and turned around and went back to the kitchen.

"My mom speaks very ugly." I couldn't hear Hedi's footsteps, Cheng Yancai whispered.

Cheng Jiahua smiled bitterly and sighed.

Cheng Jiahua just lay on the sofa like that all day, thinking that maybe Hetu would be soft-hearted when she saw her like this, but she didn't think that she walked around as if she didn't see herself, and only did what she was doing. Cheng Jiahua's heart couldn't help but be even colder, and in the evening, he couldn't lie down anymore, sat up half-propped, rubbed his stomach after a day of hunger, and thought about how to fill it later.

"That's it, what else can I do? She wants to divorce, I won't leave, I see when she and that Zheng Xi can get into trouble. He thought so to himself, and habitually wanted to put aside this upset thing and find some fun to make himself happy. After sitting for a while, he put on his coat, washed his face casually, and prepared to go out.

As soon as one foot stepped out of the door, he heard a curse from the kitchen, sharp as if it was about to tear open the sky overhead.

"Cheng Yan! You die for me! ”

Cheng Yan was lying on the coffee table and doing his homework, and his heart trembled when he was shouted by this voice. She didn't know what she had done wrong again, so she hurriedly threw down her pen and ran over. I saw my mother holding her coat in one hand and the ten yuan Zheng Xi gave her in the other, and she was trembling with anger.

When Cheng Yan saw the ten yuan, his footsteps suddenly stopped, and he stood at the door and hesitated.

"You come in for me!" He Tu shouted loudly, and shouted to Cheng Lin, who was playing with toys next to him, "You go out!" ”

Cheng Lin laughed sarcastically, glanced at Cheng Yan gloatingly, and said in a low voice: "Steal money!" I'm going to be beaten! Reluctantly, he slipped out of bed and walked out.

Cheng Yan opened her mouth, and was about to say that it was not stolen by herself, but Uncle Zheng gave it to herself, but the corner of her eye swept away, and she caught a glimpse of her father standing behind her, she remembered the scene of her parents' quarrel last night, and it was most likely because of that Uncle Zheng, she swallowed the words back. Because the ten dollars made her parents quarrel again, this is not something she wants to see.

He Tu threw down his coat, stood up menacingly, grabbed Cheng Yan's arm, gritted his teeth and asked, "Where did you steal this money?" ”

"I didn't steal it." Cheng Yan whispered a word of defense.

"It's not stolen, it's where it came from?" Seeing Cheng Yan's defense, Hetu was even more angry, and he had something on his mind, so his face became more and more hideous.

Cheng Yan couldn't help but be scared when she saw her mother's tone becoming more severe, she peeked at her father, and saw that her father was standing outside the door with an expressionless face, and she didn't plan to participate in this matter.

"Yes, someone else gave it." Cheng Yan stammered, flustered.

"Who gave it to you?" He Tu asked a few times, but seeing that Cheng Yan couldn't answer, she gritted her teeth and scolded, "Are you a little promising?" If you don't have money at home, you're going to steal it? Did I give you the money in the morning? Your face is made of iron skin, so thick? She slapped Cheng Yan's back hard, gritted her teeth and scolded, her eyes still glancing out, "Who taught you this bad problem?" Asking you to steal someone else's money? You say! You say! ”

Cheng Yan was beaten painfully, so he cried and shouted: "It was Uncle Zheng who gave it to me!" ”

He Tu was stunned for a moment, she stared at the money in her hand for a long time, and then looked at Cheng Jiahua's expression. I saw Cheng Jiahua looking at her gloomily, and the look on his face seemed to kill her.

"Fart! Are you still panicking? He Tu looked away, no longer looking at Cheng Jiahua's face, but slapped Cheng Yan harder. She scolded in her mouth, regardless of whether she really wronged the child or not, she only cared about diverging the anger in her heart to hide the panic on her face.

This farce didn't last long, and it ended with Cheng Jiahua breaking the curtain and going out. He Tu sat down on the bed exhausted, panting and asking, "Is it really your Uncle Zheng who gave it?" ”

Cheng Yan shrank in the corner and nodded weakly.

"Do you have a brain? Are you talking to your dad before your Uncle Zheng? You're trying to get your dad to beat me to death, right? He Yan glared at Cheng Yan angrily and put the money back in his pocket.

Cheng Yan lowered her eyes and stared at the ground, angry and aggrieved in her heart, but she didn't say a word, she knew that if she started talking, her mother would say that she was talking back, and then she would be scolded. She didn't want to be scolded anymore, and she didn't want to hear those foul words being called to her by her mother again.

This time, Cheng Jiahua has lived at home for a long time, and his purpose is not clear, but He Tu also understands that he is staring at himself. Originally, Zheng Xi also helped Hedi find a job, so that she could make some money and avoid her being bored at home, but Cheng Jiahua stared at her day by day, but she couldn't go out anymore, so she could only work in a hurry every day, and the already rare smile was even rarer.

After a month of doing this, the shop where Cheng Jiahua worked couldn't stand it, saying that if he didn't go back, he wouldn't go back, and the store would recruit other people. Cheng Jiahua begged the shopkeeper, saying that there was something at home, and the shopkeeper was unmoved, so he had to pack his luggage and prepare to go back. Before leaving, he called Hetu into the house, and the two didn't know what to say, so they began to quarrel again, and finally ended with Cheng Jiahua leaving in embarrassment. The moment he walked out of the door, the expression on Hedi's face began to change, and his eyes seemed to glow, and before Cheng Jiahua's figure completely disappeared at the end of the road, she couldn't wait to run out of the door, came to the house where Zheng Xi lived, and knocked on the door hard.

Although Zheng Xi hasn't gone to look for her in the past few days, he also vaguely knows what happened at her house. At this moment, he heard Hedi knocking on the door, and he was afraid to open it, and after a few minutes, the knock became impatient, and he got up and opened the door.

A pair of sparkling eyes broke into his eyes first, and then she threw herself into his arms and whispered, "What have you been busy with these days?" ”

Zheng Xi stroked her back a few times and gently pushed her away, he didn't want to be gentle at the moment, he wanted to figure out the current situation of the matter quickly.

"What's wrong?" He Tu looked at him suspiciously, and suddenly laughed, "He's gone." ”

Zheng Xi's frowning brows did not expand because of these three words, he took two steps back, sat on the chair, and asked, "You guys quarreled?" ”

"You got it?" Seeing his serious expression, He Tu unconsciously put away his smile.

"Hmm." Zheng Xi answered, don't look over.

"Yes, he knows about us." He looked at him fixedly, intently.

"Then you-" Zheng Xi glanced at her quickly, and then looked away, "How are you arguing?" ”

"What are you talking about?" He Tu laughed sarcastically, found a chair and sat down, "Noise will definitely be noisy, noisy will definitely be noisy, but there is only one result, divorce." ”

"It doesn't have to be like this, does it?" A hint of panic flashed in Zheng Xi's eyes, but he immediately covered it up, "You discuss it with him." ”

"Let's discuss?" Hedi was stung by his reaction, and her eyes widened, "What's the room for negotiation in this kind of thing?" Either I'm divorced, or I'm broken with you, which do you say I'm going to choose? ”

Zheng Xi was embarrassed, lowered his head and stopped talking.

He Tu snorted and said, "I chose to divorce." ”

"Hetu......" Zheng Xi muttered, which indicated that he did not very much agree with Hetu's choice.

"What? Don't you want to marry me? He Tu hugged his arms and looked at him, "I'll take Xiao Yan Xiaolin, and the four of us will live together, okay?" ”

"It's not—" Zheng Xi hurriedly raised his head, "I don't think it's necessary to come to this point. ”

"Now that he knows everything, how far do you want to go? Are you still letting me live with him? Do you know how painful that is? He Tu said, his expression gradually becoming aggrieved.

Zheng Xi couldn't see the grievances of Hetu, and when he saw her crying, his heart seemed to be pinched, and he hurriedly held her hand and coaxed: "I know I know, how can I not know?" ”

"So how far do you want to go? What do you mean by that? He Tu looked at him aggrievedly with hazy tears.

"I mean, it's not that simple." Zheng Xi hurriedly said, "It's not good for you or me when this thing gets out, let alone the two children." And the children are still young, and getting divorced so early is not good for their growth environment. In addition, I am not even stable in my own life now, where can I take good care of the three of you? ”

"You mean you don't want to be with me?" He bit her lip and looked at him through tears. Seeing that the expression on Zheng Xi's face was even more distressed, she couldn't help but feel a little satisfied.

"Where, I am not willing!" Zheng Xi took her into his arms, stroked her hair, and comforted her softly.

He wiped away her tears and smiled contentedly. In fact, when it comes to divorce, Hetu is not so reluctant in her heart, maybe she is used to the life in front of her, and the sudden change makes her extremely insecure. At this moment, nesting in Zheng Xi's arms and enjoying the feeling of being truly pampered is enough for her.
