Chapter 60: Salt the Wound
Wu Zhenri went out after washing, where did he dare to go to school to talk to his wife about divorce, but cleared his luggage, took his coils, and prepared to take a bus to the northwest where he had interned to relax.
When he went to the station, he sent a text message to Xu Qi, saying that he was out on business and would not be able to return in ten days and a half months.
Not long after Wu Zhenri came out of the store, a female customer walked to the counter, but she didn't buy braised vegetables, she only looked at Bao Furong with a smile and said, I am from Yulin Town, a neighboring county, and I am from the same place as you.
Bao Furong was idle, using the sweeping knife to remove the hair on a piece of fresh pig's head to be marinated. Seeing that the visitor introduced her like this, she suddenly felt a sense of intimacy, put down her work and asked her, is there anything wrong?
Yes. The female customer looked at the door of the store and said, my surname is Liu, my name is Liu Zhilan, and your parents are familiar with it. Speaking of this, Bao Furong motioned for her to enter the store and sit on a chair against the wall.
Bao Furong went into the inner room to pour a cup of tea and handed it to her.
Liu Zhilan didn't catch it steadily, a cup of tea was spilled down, splashed on his pants, and what was even more embarrassing was that the teacup was porcelain, which fell on the hard cement floor and fell into several petals.
It doesn't matter. Bao Furong said, sift another cup of tea for you.
I'm not thirsty. I'm so embarrassed. Liu Zhilan wants to find a broom and a dustpan to clean. Bao Furong said, you are a guest, why do you need to do it? So he went to the side of the corridor in the middle and brought a broom and a dustpan to clean up.
Liu Zhilan stepped aside, and saw that her waist seemed to be a little bent, so she went over to help.
At the end, Bao Furong walked to the store, bought a bottle of mineral water from the adjacent grocery store and handed it to Liu Zhilan, saying You drink this. Liu Zhilan pushed and said that she was not thirsty, but it was difficult but meaningful, so she still took it, but put it aside, sat back on the original chair, and said to Bao Furong, do you know Wu Haoshuang in Rainforest Town?
Know. Bao Furong said, a young man who sells pork, I also bought pig heads to make marinated goods in his stall! As she spoke, she picked up the hair-sweeping knife and said to Liu Zhilan, Aunt Liu, you take the knife back and return it to Wu Haoshuang, thank him on my behalf, I don't have time to go back to Rainforest Town now.
A hair-sweeping knife is worth a few thicknesses, he didn't ask you for it, you just gave it to you as if he gave it to you, not to mention that you often use it for braising pig's head. Liu Zhilan said this, and turned to the topic, Xiaobao, I didn't have anything else to do here, I just wanted to give you a letter.
What kind of letter? Bao Furong put the hair-sweeping knife back in the corner of the counter and stared at her and asked.
Wu Haoshuang is interesting to you, he specially asked me to be a matchmaker. Liu Zhilan made her words clear. Unexpectedly, Bao Furong touched her slightly bulging abdomen and said, no! You're too late, I've already talked to friends, and I'm already pregnant with someone else's child in my belly.
Liu Zhilan looked at her carefully, and remembered that she had just cleaned up the broken teacup porcelain garbage, and it was difficult to squat down, feeling that she was not lying, so she sighed lightly, stood up and said, Xiaobao, you talked about friends, and I don't know. Since that was the case, I had no choice but to leave.
After Xu Qi watched the text message sent by Wu Zhenri, she felt irritable, she didn't believe that Wu Zhenri was going out to do business as the text message said, and she even wondered if Wu Zhenri took the wild woman to play in the field again; Either Wu Zhenri didn't leave at all, or he was pestered by that wild woman in that pickled vegetable store and couldn't leave.
Xu Qi, who had all kinds of doubts, came out of school and went straight to a braised vegetable shop on that street at 5 o'clock in the afternoon.
She saw Bao Furong cutting braised pork with a hairbrushing knife, but she didn't see Wu Zhenri, so is it possible that he was busy working in the back room of the braised vegetable store?
Xu Qi immediately dialed Wu Zhenri's mobile phone, expecting that if he was here, he would hear the familiar ringtone. She didn't hear the ringtone when she dialed the phone, but she dialed, and the other party answered: Kiki, what's the matter?
Town Day, nothing going on? I just wanted to ask where are you? Xu Qi, who was standing in front of the braised vegetable store, was answering the phone, and Wu Zhenri said on the phone, Didn't I send you a text message? Doing business outside.
Xu Qi said yes and hung up the phone. Unexpectedly, when dialing the mobile phone, she just spit out the word "Zhenri", which attracted the attention of Bao Furong in the pickled vegetable shop, she put down her work, picked up the mobile phone put aside, and dialed a few digital keys in a row, and the mobile phone was connected, so she frowned in her ear and asked fiercely, Wu Zhenri, which wild woman's call did you answer just now?
The phone hung up immediately, and Wu Zhenri, who was on the other end of the phone, realized that Xu Qi was occasionally discovered by Bao Furong when he made a call to him, so he had to remain silent.
At this time, Bao Furong continued to call Wu Zhenri's mobile phone, but it was turned off, she had nowhere to vent, so she stared at Xu Qi, who was still standing in front of the store, and asked coldly, who are you Wu Zhenri?
I'm his wife Xu Qi, you don't know yet, right? Xu Qi became calm and tried to speak calmly, I was just about to talk to you.
Okay! Let's talk. Bao Furong said, picking up the braised meat sweeping knife and slamming it on the board, making a clang.
Then you should close the door of your shop, lest you get excited and cause the neighbours and strangers passing by to come and see the excitement. Xu Qi walked into the braised vegetable shop as she spoke, and a spicy spicy braised vegetable smell that didn't smell good made her choke.
Bao Furong snorted and slammed the door shut, and the store suddenly became dark.
Bao Furong turned on the light, and still asked coldly, what is there, can you just say it? Xu Qi was standing at first, and when she saw that she didn't say to ask for a seat, she unceremoniously sat on a chair, as if the chair was about to fall apart, and found that it was like a cry of pain.
Xu Qi looked at her and said, I advise you not to be a third party and mess up my family, I am Wu Zhenri's legal wife, what about you?
Bao Furong sneered for a while, and then stroked her slightly bulging abdomen with both hands and said, I advise you to divorce Wu Zhenri quickly, withdraw from your so-called family, and let Wu Zhenri marry me in style, and I won't become his legal wife?
Shut up, do you know that Wu Zhenri really wants you? Even if Wu Zhenri is entangled by you, will the people of the Wu family recognize you? Xu Qi pointed to Bao Furong's sore spot, raised her face and continued, women must have self-esteem, otherwise they will not be respected, what is this called? It's called cheap!
You're cheap! Where can Bao Furong say that Xu Qi, who is a teacher, she is forced to be anxious, patting her slightly bulging belly and shouting, do you know? I am already pregnant with Wu Zhenri Maomao (i.e., child), this is the crystallization of love, what about you? seized my position, and was shameless, came to talk to me, persuaded me to leave, and told you that just by virtue of this, the Wu family would have to admit it if it was not recognized.
This is like a thunderbolt under the clear sky, Xu Qi looked at Bao Furong's belly, and it really bulged, in the face of the facts, she had to believe it, she only now understands that the reason why Bao Furong is so rampant is because Wu Zhenri has planted evil in her stomach.
At this moment, she was so angry that she didn't know what to say, and she regretted it, thinking: If I had known this situation, I would never marry Wu Zhenri. It was Wu Zhenri who deceived me, and if Wu Zhenri was present now, she would run up and slap him a few times to relieve the hatred of being deceived.
Seeing Bao Furong still repeating those words she didn't want to hear so proudly, Xu Qi was enraged, and she angrily pointed to Bao Furong's stomach and said, Who knows which evil seed you have in your stomach? Maybe it's not Wu Zhenri, looking at you, a bewitching concubine, it is impossible to entangle only one man.
Shut up! Bao Furong roared, these words were like salt grains sprinkled in her wounds, Bao Furong was very taboo about her disgraceful experience, Xu Qi was a little broken, she felt greatly insulted, and there was no need to defend whether the child in her belly was Wu Zhenri.
She was crazy, picked up the hair-sweeping knife placed on the braised meat case, pointed at Xu Qi and said, If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will stab you to death.
