The meal was quickly cooked, Zhang Xu also finished burning the kang, I put the table and put the dishes and chopsticks away, and Zhang Xu was not idle and busy serving the food. When everything was ready, the two of us gathered around the table to eat. I made a stew and stir-fried a vegetarian dish. I put the meat in front of Zhang Xu and said to him, "You eat more meat." ”
"You eat too." Zhang Xu was not polite, and put a piece of meat in his mouth and said.
I smiled and said, "I don't like meat, and you don't know it." I'm not like you, I don't think about it for a few days, I don't think about it even if I don't eat meat for a month. "That's what I said. In fact, to be honest, I also love meat. In particular, the food in our unit is not good, and it is difficult to see meat in the unit, so of course we are happy to have meat to eat at home.
But I grew up with a personality that I could eat anything for others. Because that's the kind of atmosphere in our house. At that time, the family was poor, and it was rare to have a good meal, but you let me and I let you on the table. We've never had a fight in our family over food. Especially my mom. At that time, if we had a little bit of good food, my mother would hardly use chopsticks. My character is even like my mother. Everything is for the sake of others. If there is something delicious, others can eat it first.
Zhang Xu saw that I didn't eat, so he didn't persuade me again. Maybe it's a habit, he probably thinks that I really don't like meat, so he didn't persuade me again. But I didn't think I was wronged. I'm also happy to see him eating with relish.
I asked Zhang Xu: "Zhang Xu, did you say that Xiao He called you just now?" ”
"yes, why did you bring it up again?"
"But I heard what looked like a woman's voice." I said it straight away. As he spoke, he looked at his expression to see if he would be weak-hearted. But he said casually, "You are talking nonsense, which woman will call me?" As poor as I am, besides you and me, what other woman will be with me? ”
After listening to Zhang Xu's words and seeing his casual expression, I discovered for the first time that it would be so natural for Zhang Xu to lie.
Zhang Xu ate this meal with relish, but I ate tastelessly, not because he ate meat and I ate vegetables, but because he lied to me without blinking.
After the meal was finished, I cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and Zhang Xu helped me put away the table. After putting away the table, he turned on the TV as before, and began to sit on the couch and watch TV, while I went to the kitchen and finished washing the dishes, and began to clean up the house. The house was small and easy to tidy up, and after roughly wiping it down, I started mopping the floor again, first the house, then the kitchen. When I was all packed, I went inside.
But when I entered the room, I found that Zhang Xu's expression was different from before, he stared at me and didn't say a word. I was stunned by his expression, I hadn't seen him like this in all this time of marriage.
So I asked, "Zhang Xu, what's wrong with you?" Why are you looking at me like that? ”
Zhang Xu didn't answer my words, but asked rhetorically: "Did you peek at my phone?" ”
Hearing his words, I was a little strange, how did he know that I was peeking at his phone? Could it be that his phone is still marked? Just when he was stunned, he asked again: "Did you peek at my phone?" ”
Seeing him ask me in a fierce voice, I was also a little angry: "Is there anything on your phone that you are afraid of me seeing?" I just watched what's wrong? ”
As soon as he finished saying this, Zhang Xu said louder: "Not only did you peek at my mobile phone, but you also called people, didn't you?" ”
As soon as I heard what he said, I understood. Understood why he knew I was peeking at his phone. Not because his phone was marked, but because he peeked at my phone and he saw the suspicious call I made. Although I hung up without dialing, the phone showed that the call had been dialed, so he thought I had made that suspicious call from him. Probably he thought I was talking to the woman, right?
When I saw his angry look, I was angry too. It was he who lied to me first, and the woman outside called me and told me that it was Xiao He, but now he still looks like a teacher asking for guilt. This made me, who has always been good-natured, unable to accept it. So I didn't explain to him that I didn't actually dial the number, I just saved the number and wanted to dial it again when I had time.
"I dialed it, what's wrong?" I said an angry word.
Unexpectedly, it was because of such an angry sentence that Zhang Xu beat me violently. Zhang Xu didn't say a word, jumped from the kang to the ground, came to me and stretched out his hand to slap me in the face.
I was stupid to stand there with one hand over my face. I have never seen Zhang Xu look so fierce, and I never thought that Zhang Xu would beat me. I had never seen anything like this, and I could never have dreamed of it. My ex-husband and I have been living together for almost a decade, although we have some discordant personalities and always quarrel together. But it was just a fight, and he never hit me. Not to mention a slap in the mouth, even my ex-husband didn't touch me on his finger. At that time, when I was angry, my ex-husband always said: "Don't think that if I don't beat you, I can't beat you, I tell you, I don't beat you because I love you, so I am reluctant to beat you." Don't mess with me. But when he had finished speaking, I really ran up to him and said, "You hit?" You hit. So my ex-husband quickly ran away. While running, he said, "You're mentally ill, I'll ignore you, I'm leaving." After saying that, he ran out, and when I was gone, he would be back. It wasn't until much later that I realized that it was my first ex-husband who really loved me. It was really me at the time, he was laughing. It's a pity that I was too young to think of this. It can be regarded as not knowing the blessing in the midst of blessings. Now my second-married husband, who thinks I have found true love, actually beats me?
In the past, when I was not divorced, a man in our neighborhood always beat his daughter-in-law. At that time, I looked down on that man very much, thinking that it was something that only men who had no ability to do. Not only did they look down on the man, but they even looked down on the woman who was beaten. I don't understand, why do you still have to live with your husband who beats you like that? Isn't it all over if you leave him? If I have something to say, my husband touches me all the time, and I don't talk to him. How can there be a man beating his wife in this society? Growing up, I had never seen anything ugly, so in my impression there was only beauty, and it seemed that those ugliness were far away from me.
But it wasn't until later that I realized that anything could happen, and when I laughed at that woman, I would have thought that one day I would be beaten by my own husband like that woman.
When I was covering my mouth and stunned, Zhang Xu hit me and kept jumping there and yelling: "Why are you peeking at my phone? What are you? Didn't you know that everyone has a right to privacy? ”
At such a moment, he was talking to me about privacy? I finally reacted and pounced on Zhang Xu desperately. That's when I went crazy. This man? This man I took good care of him actually started beating me? I fought with him. I don't have any other thoughts in my heart, I just want to fight with him. The feeling of shattered dreams made my heart bleed.
