Chapter 4, give me money to have a baby
The heat wave that drifted in the middle of the day unconsciously blew away the dark clouds that obscured the sun, and the scorching light once again shrouded the cool alley. The high temperature plummeted, and the quiet cicada chirped even colder, which suddenly broke the tranquility between Berlin and Chen Kexin, and stirred up the thoughts of the two at this time.
Chen Kexin raised her head and faced Berlin, who was coming back to her senses, as if she had nothing to do, as if she really couldn't hear Le Yao's voice on the phone, and said softly, "I'm going to work, Berlin." ”
"Uh... Well... Good. Be careful on your way. ”
I don't know if she was comforting and deceiving herself, Berlin ran away as if she hadn't heard.
Carrying a bag of work clothes that could be printed with the logo of 'Mega Supermarket', Chen Kexin walked into this piece of sunlight, getting farther and farther away from the view of Berlin.
In his eyes, Chen Kexin's thin figure made Berlin unforgettable about his illness. Like a thorn in his heart.
Berlin felt that she was not suffering from a minor illness, otherwise she would not have hung up the doctor's phone so abruptly just now. Coupled with the remarks that he said to him when he crossed over that he couldn't take care of Xiao Ke because of his illness, he must know how much about her illness in the future. Now that I have been to the hospital for examination, I may still have medical records at home...
Thinking of this, he searched at home.
Fortunately, the house is not big, and there is not much room for things except for the drawers in the cabinet. Sure enough, after looking around, Berlin did find a few medical records. He searched his medical records several times and found the words 'congenital hereditary heart disease'.
Although Berlin knows nothing about medicine. But the dangerous word 'heart disease', he has grown so big, whether it is in textbooks or on TV, he has seen a lot. In the subconscious mind, this is a disease that is very troublesome to treat and a very large amount of treatment...
Silently putting back the medical records, Berlin, who sat back on the stool, stared at the photo of a family of three on the refrigerator and was stunned.
To be honest, Berlin doesn't know what kind of feeling it is, and if I have to describe it, it's like an empty and depressed feeling... This is his future wife, and it is impossible for him to say that there is no turmoil in his heart, and he does not want to treat her or something. However, he understood why Chen Kexin was so weak when he talked about illness, and in this situation at home, even life didn't seem easy, how could he take a huge amount of money for treatment?
If she doesn't treat it, she'll die, right?
So what to do?
Berlin turned to his daughter, who was staring at an old yellowed album and looked at it with relish, and understood Chen Kexin's powerlessness even more. If she has this disease, if she gets divorced, or dies without treatment, how will Nini be good? That's why Chen Kexin hopes that he can take care of Nini after the divorce. But he was so indifferent that he chose Le Yao to completely abandon her....
Impression with Le Yao Berlin also stopped at the school lunch break.
The two have been at the same table for three years, and he doesn't know when he had a crush on Le Yao. After getting along for a long time, he has had the urge to confess more than once, but he always doesn't have the courage to take action. As for the future, he did not do a little daydream of falling in love with Le Yao, getting married and having children, and when he knew that he would cheat on Le Yao in the future, Berlin didn't know what kind of complicated emotions he bred for a while.
He didn't want to destroy the family, and the fact that Cola Yao was pregnant once again disrupted his previous determination...
But if you don't abandon this family, will you abandon Le Yao?
Berlin suddenly hated his future self, hated him in the future, why did he destroy this family, why did he delay Le Yao, and left this bunch of things for him.
After a long struggle in his heart, Berlin finally walked out of the house. In the high temperature of the afternoon, the overflowing sweat stains and the heat pouring into his mind made Berlin's brain not so calm, he dialed Le Yao's phone number, and a few beeps, a few seconds later, Le Yao answered the phone. The voice was indifferent: "What else do you have?" ”
"Le Yao, I want to talk to you... Only... I haven't figured out a solution to our matter yet, so don't be impulsive, don't beat the child, and I'll get back to you when I figure out how to deal with it, okay? ”
Berlin was very serious and sincere, but the hypocrisy and selfishness in his words were so clear in his heart. But this selfishness is a euphemistic expression of his inner thoughts.
"Do you still want me to wait, Berlin? I've really waited enough. One year, two years, three years... Do you remember how many years I waited for you here? Shall I wait until the child is born, and I will raise it myself? Since you don't want to give up on your family, what else can you do? If you really want to make up for me and be kind to me, you can just take care of the abortion fee for me, I don't have much money now. ”
Le Yao's slightly indifferent and resentful voice was more thorough than the sudden cool breeze that made Berlin sober up. He was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know how to answer again.
"I hung up. Are you willing to pay to call me again. ”
The phone is left with a beep echo...
The cool breeze was fleeting, and it took away a little bit of heat, but it couldn't sweep away the slightest of his troubles.
The hut was still as dull as a steamer, and Berlin, who had returned to the house, noticed his daughter's sweat-soaked sideburns, and tried to turn on the fan in the corner, but the fan was broken. It looks like it's been broken for some time, and it's covered with a thin layer of ash.
Sitting back in his seat, seeing his daughter's serious state not affected by the high temperature, Berlin couldn't help but want to get close to his daughter, avoid some of the previous estrangement, try to make himself smile more gently, and said, "Nini, is this album very beautiful?" ”
Nini raised her head, and the estrangement of his unchanged cowardice in her eyes said crisply, "Mom said, let Nini read more." Mom is working now to save more money, and when Nini will be four and a half years old next year, she will send Nini to school. ”
"Ahh That's right. ”
Berlin froze.
Yes, he only thinks about work, and he doesn't think about his daughter. She's obviously close to school age, and she's going to kindergarten.
Does Chen Kexin save money..
Living expenses, the money for abortion that Le Yao said, the cost of Nini's study, Berlin found that money is needed anywhere in the future life. And these are no longer the same as when he was a student to reach out to his parents and open his mouth, the money has to be paid by him, and he doesn't...
Berlin stopped talking to his daughter, subconsciously avoiding her clear eyes. It's not that he doesn't know how to continue talking to his daughter, but he is afraid that when he faces his daughter's hopeful gaze again, he doesn't know how to calm his inner anxiety...
Time passed bit by bit, the clock on the wall was ticking, and it had been 1 hour since Chen Kexin went out to work.
Suddenly, two knocks on the door disturbed the silence of the room again.
Berlin looked up and saw that it was still a bright noon outside, and the sun was blazing. At the door of the house stood a middle-aged woman in her early forties, her figure was slightly bloated, and her slightly thick eyebrows gave people a strange sense of fierceness. She looked coldly at Berlin in the room, and said lightly, "Berlin, it's time to pay the rent today." ”
