Chapter 44: The Garden
When Wang Jianguo came back in the evening, Wang Xue was arranged to do his homework here, and Xia Yang went into the house to see Wang Jianguo.
"Daughter-in-law."
Wang Jianguo saw Xia Yang hurriedly sit up with a smile on his face.
"Did you get the money?"
Xia Yang asked Wang Jianguo.
"Taken."
After Wang Jianguo finished speaking, he went to get the bag and took out two thousand yuan from it and gave it to Xia Yang.
"Daughter-in-law, you use it first, and I'll give it to you when I pay you next month."
Wang Jianguo's eyes were slightly flustered.
"Husband, didn't you say five thousand?"
Xia Yang looked at the two thousand yuan, her heart paused, why did Wang Jianguo panic?
"I'll use the other three thousand."
Wang Jianguo's eyes dodged, and he didn't dare to look at Xia Yang.
"Why are you using it?"
Xia Yang asked, Wang Jianguo never hid anything from her before.
"Don't ask, daughter-in-law, your husband uses it, you can buy clothes, buy cigarettes, refuel, and buy things."
Wang Jianguo refused to say.
Xia Yang didn't speak, she looked at Wang Jianguo quietly, what is going on here? Could it be that Wang Jianguo really gave the money to Zhao Ting, otherwise why would Zhao Ting be so sure?
If Wang Jianguo spent the money himself, or if the place where the money went was above board, he would definitely tell himself, why not say it now?
"Daughter-in-law, just beg you as a husband, don't ask, okay?"
Wang Jianguo took Xia Yang's hand.
"Okay, I won't ask."
Xia Yang didn't ask again, Wang Jianguo had already said this, what else could she say.
However, Xia Yang withdrew her hand, her heart was not comfortable, but Wang Jianguo didn't let her ask, she refused to say, she could only endure it.
Wang Jianguo also knew Xia Yang, he opened his mouth, wanted to say something, and swallowed the words back.
"I went to see Xiaoxue do her homework."
Xia Yang put the money on the table and she went out.
Wang Jianguo wanted to call her, but looking at the money on the table, he was silent.
He knew that Xia Yang was not a person who cared about money, what she cared about was not the three thousand yuan, but his attitude towards him.
He didn't want Xia Yang to misunderstand, he didn't want to hide it from Xia Yang, but what could he say?
The phone rang again, and looking at the note, he hung up.
WeChat rang, look at the name inside, Wang Jianguo did not open it. He set his phone to silent, he didn't want to listen to Zhao Ting, and he didn't want to read Zhao Ting's messages.
This night, Xia Yang and Wang Jianguo slept with their backs to each other, and neither of them slept well, but neither of them explained.
The next day, Xia Yang sat in front of the computer, she didn't code a word for a long time, she knew, her heart was upset.
Xia Yang is not afraid of difficulties, nor is she afraid of hardship, what she is afraid of is her husband's concealment. It would make her feel like she was an outsider. If the husband and wife are not together, then this family is not far apart.
She doesn't care about the three thousand yuan, what she cares about is Wang Jianguo's heart for her. Zhao Ting knew where the money went, why couldn't she tell her?
Xia Yang simply left the computer, and she stood by the window with a cup of tea.
She looked at the hanging garden downstairs, this garden she had been to twice in total, and she was with Wang Xue to play.
For some reason, at this moment, Xia Yang felt that this room was very stuffy, and she wanted to go to the garden for a walk.
Putting on a padded jacket, Xia Yang went downstairs and went to a unit, because their unit did not have direct access to the sky garden.
Going up to the fifth floor from the first unit, she went to the garden.
There has been no snow for a few days, so there is no snow under the garden, but no one can sit on the benches, because no one will come to clean it in winter, and no one will come here to get frozen.
Xia Yang walked step by step in the garden, now is not summer, the water is gone, the flowers are all lost, everything seems depressed, there is no scenery to see, but walking like this, can make her heart slowly become calm.
Chen Tian in the room finished reading a novel by Xia Yang again, he stood up and moved his body, and naturally walked to the window to look outside, he saw the figure.
It's Xia Yang.
How did she end up in the Hanging Gardens? It's winter.
Chen Tian was puzzled, he didn't have time to think about it, grabbed his coat and put it on and went upstairs.
In the garden, he walked up to the figure.
"Chen Tian, why did you come here?"
Xia Yang was stunned when he saw Chen Tian.
"I saw you upstairs, so I came down to say hello, it's so cold, why are you here?"
Chen Tian didn't say anything about the coincidence of the encounter, he knew that he didn't believe Xia Yang if he said that.
"I'm a little tired of writing, and I don't have inspiration, so I come down and do activities."
Xia Yang smiled, Chen Tian's honesty gave her a good impression in her heart, of course it was not the kind of good impression of men and women.
"Cold? Why don't you go to my house and sit down, I've been to your house, you haven't been to me yet, let me report back today, but I can't invite you to dinner, I can't cook, but I can invite you to a cup of tea. ”
Chen Tian invited Xia Yang, he saw that Xia Yang's face and nose were a little frozen red, he was distressed, he didn't want Xia Yang to continue to blow the cold wind here.
"No need, thank you for your kindness, I still have to go back to codewording."
Xia Yang refused, although she and Chen Tian are nothing, but Chen Tian is a man, and it is not good for her to go to someone's house.
"Just a cup of tea, I don't mean anything else, I have a few more questions for you."
Chen Tian knew Xia Yang's concerns and hurriedly said.
"What's the problem?"
Xia Yang didn't expect Chen Tian to say this.
"It's your novel, and I found a character in your novel who has a very strange mind. And your heroine, sometimes I can't understand her thoughts. I want to ask you. ”
Chen Tian thought of a reason.
"My novel? Do you read my novels? ”
Xia Yang was a little stunned, she really didn't expect Chen Tian to ask this, you must know that her novel is the heroine, with a woman as the protagonist. And even if a man wants to read a novel, he will read it with the male protagonist as the protagonist.
The pattern of women is relatively small, and there are generally more short ones in writing about love, house fights and parents. But the man's world is bigger.
How could Chen Tian read her novels?
"I'm also curious, I don't know what a woman's novel is like, so I read it, but I didn't expect to really read it. So there are some questions I want to ask you, in front of you, with this convenience, don't ask, I'm not dying. ”
Chen Tian was also slightly embarrassed, he has been very busy in the past few years, where does he have time to read novels, let alone women's novels.
"What's the problem?"
Xia Yang heard Chen Tian say this, but he didn't refuse.
"I wrote it down, thinking that I had time to ask you that day, it just so happened that you didn't have anything to do today, so you can do something good and help me solve it, otherwise I won't be able to sleep well."
What Chen Tian said was a little pitiful, but what he said made Xia Yang's heart feel relieved at once.
