CHAPTER XXXI

In the next half month, Wang Chu slept most of the time, the room was shady, the gray curtains were tightly blocked, and the sunlight could not shine in at all, so she often couldn't tell the difference between day and night. Li Xiangxia got up at six o'clock to make breakfast, and here it was breakfast time at nine o'clock, and everyone finished eating and closed the table before eight o'clock.

Wang Chu and his mother-in-law have the most tacit understanding of sitting on the sofa and chasing the drama, the "Iron Pear Flower" has been staged for twenty-six episodes, Zhang Shaohua, who plays the old lady in the play, is her mother-in-law's favorite star, and her mother-in-law told her the old lady in the story from beginning to end, even if she couldn't listen to it, she was very interested, and she was not embarrassed.

Speaking of the third aunt in the play, the mother-in-law hated it so much that she even came out to spit Xingzi, "Hey, this third aunt is hateful, I have never seen such a vicious woman in the world, that bad ......"

"Mommy." Wang Chu persuaded, "This is just a TV series, which can play the characters as hated in people's hearts, and can make the audience remember, which shows that people's acting skills are good, you just need to watch it." ”

"Anyway, I just don't like her." Mother-in-law said that it is often like this, she will say that she is a good person when she plays a good person in the play, and she will say a bad person when she plays a bad person, and she remembers the plot very clearly, and then tells Wang Chu the whole story again, and it is the first thing to say.

Since she knew that Wang Chu had a miscarriage, Li Xiangxia's attitude has taken a 180-degree turn, without fanciful wording, without incredible hospitality, and only uses actions to prove that her previous behavior is not yin and yang.

She spends more energy on preparing each meal, with many tricks and more time-consuming, she puts most of her energy in the kitchen, takes time to watch TV with her mother-in-law, and is more able to say a few words to Wang Chu. There was no more language and topic exchange between them, and the mother-in-law talked about the storyline, but she stopped scolding the third aunt. Occasionally, Li Xiangxia will talk about her daughter and son's study, and then talk about Li Haoran, she said, "The group field is so backward that there is no place to tutor the child, Haohao will soon be in the third year of junior high school, and he has to find a way to enroll in cram school, this year is the most important year, I can't learn the knowledge points in junior high school, and it will be too late to go to high school." ”

"The group field is based on this condition, and the teacher does not allow students to make up classes." Wang Chu said.

"Let him learn online, many of them are taught online." Li Xiangxia said.

Wang Chu hesitated, "I'd better find a teacher for him to make up the lesson." ”

"You still have to pay attention to it, let Haohao do less housework, and it will be better to be admitted to a university in the future than to do anything."

"I didn't let him do the housework either, but the child has to let him do his own things, and it won't hurt him in the future."

"His aunt." Li Xiangxia corrected, "Haohao is still young, to study first, my family is strong from the third grade I have signed up for English cram school, there are cram schools for every class in the first year of high school, bright bright a year of tuition fees cost me tens of thousands of yuan, Juanjuan studies well, but the tuition fee is less than 5,000 a year, don't look at me, I go to buy a pack of salt to tell others the price, only wear clothes within 100 yuan, but I never save the child's tuition fees." ”

Wang Chu frowned, and said that she didn't want to argue, and her mother-in-law didn't want to interject at all, but it didn't mean that she didn't listen carefully. Regarding Li Haoran's washing clothes and shoes and tidying up the house since she was a child, she was sure that these words were said by her mother-in-law to her sister, and her mother-in-law had the same idea as Li Xiangxia, and there was a dispute over this matter, but the result was that Wang Chu and Li Xiangyang had the same opinion, and her mother-in-law never said anything again.

Li Xiangyang promised Li Xiangxia that he would invite her to a big meal in a few days, and this was more than half a month, and his father-in-law's leg was finally almost better, and he could walk back and forth in the living room without crutches.

"Li Xiangyang, what about the meal you promised? I've been waiting for more than half a month. Li Xiangxia called Li Xiangyang to question.

"I'm so busy that I really can't leave, so I can't let Chu Chu invite you to eat first." Li Xiangyang on the other end of the phone said.

"I haven't been to Xinjiang for more than ten years, and you just sent me away?" Li Xiangxia's brows furrowed.

"Oh, old lady, okay, if I want to leave, I have to ask the political commissar and the head of the regiment for leave, and I have to take a roll call in the division every day, you can understand me."

"I understand what you are, my dad fell his leg and I came thousands of kilometers to take care of it, and you disappeared when you showed your face, no matter how busy the unit is, the old man has to take care of it......?"

"Okay sister, I'm busy here, I'll hang up the phone first."

Before Li Xiangxia finished speaking, the other party hung up the phone, "Who is this?" She sat on the sofa angrily, "I don't take me as a sister to heart." ”

"Alright." The mother-in-law persuaded, "What has he been busy all day, you haven't seen it, but I have seen it with my own eyes, when I was the section chief in the past, I couldn't even finish the meal when I went home, and I left ...... when I called the leader, and now I am a leader, and I am even busier." ”

"Mom, don't excuse your son." Li Xiangxia pursed her lips and reluctantly defended, "I've only come here once in more than ten years." ”

"Okay, okay." The mother-in-law said, "You've been wronged, okay?" ”

Li Xiangxia glanced at her mother-in-law with contempt, "You are partial to your son." ”

"Okay, okay, if you say it's biased, I'll be biased." After the mother-in-law finished speaking, Li Xiangxia pursed her lips and expressed dissatisfaction.

didn't wait for Li Xiangyang, Wang Chu planned to ask Li Xiangxia to have a good meal at the restaurant, but she didn't want to go anyway, so she had to cook a hearty dinner at home, which was regarded as seeing her off.

Wang Chu personally sent Li Xiangxia on the train, and before leaving, she made a special trip to the bazaar, bought a lot of vegetables and fruits for her mother-in-law, as well as some household supplies and food, and stuffed a refrigerator.

"That's enough for you and my dad to eat for half a month." Li Xiangxia sorted some vegetables and fruits into the refrigerator, "Dad, your legs are not completely well, don't run around, let my mother buy what you need." ”

"I've been off for almost two months, you see." The father-in-law twisted his legs in the middle of the living room, and he smiled as he faced the conversation with his daughter, "It's not very flexible, it's been good a long time ago." ”

"Don't be reckless, break your muscles and bones for a hundred days." Li Xiangxia said prompt.

"Hey!" The father-in-law smiled innocently, "It's out of the way." ”

Wang Chu sent Li Xiangxia to the station, the two didn't say much, Li Xiangxia only said, "Chu Chu, take Hao Hao and his parents back to his hometown to play after the holiday." ”

"I'll go when I'm free." Wang Chu said that naturally, even if she rested, it was impossible to go back, and she was more looking forward to divorcing Li Xiangyang as soon as possible, and she would never have anything to do with the Li family from then on.

Seeing off Li Xiangxia, Wang Chu returned to Li Xiangyang's place of work and went to kindergarten the next day. In September, there was still an impetuous heat surging in the air, the clock moved to 2 noon to 7 pm, and the whole room and floor tiles were hot.

The vegetables in the vegetable garden have not been managed for nearly a month, and the weeds have grown taller than tomatoes.

"Go home and stay well, the grass grows taller than you, and you still pull the weeds?" Li Xiangyang always showed a concern for Wang Chu in front of outsiders, she didn't leave, skimming off the extra branches and buds of tomatoes, Li Xiangyang said, "There are not a few tomatoes, what are you doing there?" ”

"Since it's planted, it has to be well managed." Wang Chu replied.

"Okay, you can fix it, I'm leaving."

After the weeds were removed, the vegetable field was much more tidy, Wang Chu sprinkled a line of oil cabbage, a line of coriander, and a line of radish in the blank space, and the green and tender buds were revealed in less than a week, and the oil cabbage and coriander could be used for cooking in less than half a month.

Wang Chu thinks that the vegetables he grows have no pesticides and he can eat them with confidence. She likes to take care of the vegetable field, and when she has nothing to do, she watches the growth of vegetables in the vegetable field, pulls weeds, and picks vegetables. The cabbage that did not grow long was put in a pot of boiling water for a soup, put chopped green onions, garlic, and spicy seeds with hot oil and oiled, which is a delicious pure natural pollution-free cold dish.

Li Xiangyang rarely eats at home, and there are many socials in the unit, and the above stipulates that leading cadres are not allowed to drink alcohol at the dinner table for entertainers, but it is still inevitable that people at the grassroots level will use various methods to stammer.

That night, he drank unconscious, and when the driver returned him, his eyes were astigmatistic, he swayed from side to side, and he couldn't even walk steadily. The driver and Wang Chu finally helped him to sleep on the bed.

"Sister-in-law, you take care of him and give him some water in the middle of the night." The driver confesses.

"Okay, I see, thank you!"

After sending the driver away, Wang Chu saw that Li Xiangyang's mobile phone did not have a lock screen, and a series of WeChat text messages came, she didn't plan to look at it, but the words "I miss you" appeared on the screen, which shocked her.

Li Xiangyang was already drunk and unconscious, and Wang Chu stared at him for a long time, hesitating between picking up the phone and not picking it up.

Another message sent, "Can I go to you?" ”

This surprised scene made Wang Chu stand and fight, she decided to pick up her mobile phone and replied for a long time, "Where are you?" ”

"I'm in the company."

Wang Chu hesitated for a long time, there was no name on WeChat, she scribbled through all the chat records, there were really a lot of explicit words, not much content, what is the name of the other party? Where are the relevant records, it seems that Li Xiangyang will clean up the information every day, she thought about it and replied, "Do you want to come and see me?" ”

"It's ...... if it's convenient, but I don't have a car."

Wang Chu didn't know where the other party was, and she couldn't directly ask which company it was in, so she thought about it and replied, "It's not convenient now, I'm working overtime to write materials, wait a minute." ”

"Okay." The other party replied.

used the words "I'm working overtime to write materials, wait a minute", Wang Chu had a purpose, she had to find a way to know where the other party was, so she sat quietly on the edge of the bed, waiting for more than ten minutes to pass.

"That's right." Wang Chu replied again, "I'm writing materials, give me the names of all the cadres in your unit, and I don't know how to write some words." ”

A series of names were sent, a total of six, two women, four men, Wang Chu couldn't tell which one was, and the other party sent another sentence, "I don't need to say my name, right?" ”

"No, you don't." Wang Chu replied, "Can I still not know how to write your name?" Somewhat surprised, she immediately picked up her mobile phone to call Zhang Yu and asked which company these people were cadres and which cadres did not have names.

After figuring it out, Wang Chu replied again, "Wait for me, I'll pick you up." She took screenshots of all the chats and posted them on her WeChat, grabbed her car keys and mobile phone and went out.

Arrived at the door of the unit, under the headlights, a woman in a beige skirt stood there, she was not tall and looked thin, her hair was very long, draped around her waist, the wind blew her hair up, she brushed it with her hands, this action made Wang Chu's heart pound.

"I like women with long hair, the kind of black hair that is draped around the waist, Chu Chu, you keep your hair long, right?" This sentence was told to Wang Chu when she was in love with Li Xiangyang, and she still remembers it.

The car door was opened, the woman got into the car, the car door was not closed, Wang Chu reminded, "Close the car door." ”

The woman complied, and Wang Chu locked the car door as soon as possible and drove away. She glanced at the woman in the rearview mirror, and she couldn't see it very clearly at night, not even the appearance of her face, but she could see the nervousness on her face.

Wang Chu behaved very calmly, she amplified the music in the car, sped up the car, and drove the car to the door of the hotel with one foot of the accelerator. She opened a room and motioned with her eyes for the woman to go upstairs, and the woman did not seem to have any room or ability to resist, so she did so. Entering the room and turning on the light, she saw the woman clearly.

In addition to being thin, in good shape, and with long hair, the woman's face is actually not very good, and the woman looks more than ten years younger than Wang Chu, but the acne and wrinkles on her face don't look as good as her.

"Where do you get the confidence to like a division-level leader?" Wang Chu asked, "You are only an ordinary employee at the grassroots level, right?" The woman kept her mouth shut, staring at one place without replying, and she continued, "I'm nearly forty years old today, and you don't seem to be thirty, right?" She looked the woman up and down, "You see that you are better than me in addition to your age, which point of your body is better than me?" Is it your smooth face? Is it the wrinkles in the corners of your eyes? Or are you better looking than me? I'm sure you're self-aware, you don't look as good as me, right? ”

The woman cried instantly, not knowing whether her self-esteem was hurt or if she was interested in this feeling, Wang Chu didn't want to guess, and continued to ask, "Tell me, is he looking for you or are you looking for him?" ”

Only then did the woman move her mouth, struggling inexplicably, "Everything is my fault, please don't blame him, I will withdraw from your life." ”

Wang Chu sneered, "Where did he move you?" Letting you protect him so much? ”

The woman sighed lightly, "Don't ask about these things, in short, I won't disturb your life anymore." ”

Wang Chu bit his lower lip and nodded, "I hope your affection is worthy of this relationship." She took a few steps back and admitted that she had lost, that the man who had made her so disheartened should have such a woman, or more women, who loved and favored her, and even loved so affectionately. Indeed, in addition to drinking and making trouble and domestic violence, Li Xiangyang is really a very good man at work and socially, which she has to admit.

Leaving the hotel and returning home, it was already three o'clock in the morning, the room was dark, Wang Chu didn't even want to turn on the lights, with the light of her mobile phone, she went upstairs. The phone has been locked, the chat history with the woman has not been deleted, she put the phone on the bedside table, without looking at him, and exited the room.

Wang Chu stayed on the balcony all night, looking at the stars in the distant sky, she felt that the night sky that night was exceptionally clean and bright, and every twinkling star was like a clear eye. A cool breeze blew across her cheeks, disturbing her long hair, and she looked farther away, as if the series of memories that had unfolded in her mind like a fast-forward movie, and the shocking images seemed to take place at this moment.

"It's time to finish!" Wang Chu thought to himself. She found the household registration book, ID card, and all the real estate certificates in the drawer, typed out the divorce agreement in front of the computer, and when she turned around, Li Xiangyang was standing behind him with messy hair, and his alcohol didn't seem to have evaporated.

Wang Chu stood there calmly waiting for Li Xiangyang to speak, and on weekdays, seeing his drunken state, his heart was already beating faster and trembling all over, but at this moment she was as calm as water, because she got the evidence of his death.

Li Xiangyang glanced at the divorce agreement and the prepared household registration book, ID card and real estate certificate, "Do you want to play this kind of trick again?" He began, "How many times have you played?" Still playing? ”

"Did you booksign the divorce agreement?" Wang Chu handed the divorce agreement to Li Xiangyang, "Don't scare me with your life and death this time, you know very well that your official position is more important than anything." ”

"It took a lot of brainstorming last night, didn't you?" Li Xiangyang asked, "You set a trap for her more perfect than you write a novel, and you deserve to be a writer." ”

"It doesn't matter anymore, sign it." Wang Chu said.

"So what if I don't sign it?" Li Xiangyang's eyes were red, and he looked straight at Wang Chu.

Wang Chu lowered his head calmly, "If you don't sign, all the chat records on your phone will appear on the leader's table." She looked up at him again, "Or, we'll see you in court." ”

Li Xiangyang sneered, "You scare me? ”

"I didn't scare you."

"Am I not good enough for you?" Li Xiangyang shook his hand and roared, "I want to do everything I can to climb up, in order to let you go out and have face, so that you and your children can live a first-class life, but what about you?" Divorce me by all means. After saying the last sentence, he snatched the divorce agreement and tore it apart.

Wang Chuwo moved his mouth, looked at the pieces of paper scattered on the ground, tears kept rolling in his eyes, "What do you mean by being good enough?" She asked, "If I don't go well at work, I'll be angry, I'll be drunk and play drunk, I'll beat me with alcohol, or I'll find different women outside to disgust me." She held back her tears, but in the end she didn't hold back, "Do you remember those images?" She stared into his eyes, "You can break two of a woman with such a thick shovel stick." She used her hand to compare the thickness of the drawing stick, then lowered her hand, "You can slap a woman on the head until the eardrum is pierced, you can throw a woman from the fourth floor for more than two hours." The room was frighteningly quiet for a moment, and the time was terrible, and after a long time she spoke again, "What do you mean by good?" Decent face, good-looking skin, the same dirty and unsightly life, you tell me, how good are you to me? ”

"I'm not going to get a divorce." Li Xiangyang shouted hoarsely, his nergic eyes staring at Wang Chu, "You don't want to divorce." ”

Wang Chu didn't want to reason with Li Xiangyang anymore, so he put the household registration book, ID card and real estate certificate into the file bag, and was about to leave, Li Xiangyang grabbed her and yelled, "Where are you going?" ”

"Go hand over the chat log to your boss and find a lawyer." Wang Chu said firmly and wanted to shake off Li Xiangyang's hand, but he held on until a voice sounded outside the door, "Dad, let go of my mother." ”

Li Xiangyang looked back at Li Haoran standing outside the door, his little hands clenched into fists, his eyes were red, and his eyes looked at his father with hatred until Li Xiangyang let go of her hand.

Wang Chu pulled Li Haoran downstairs, "Go wash your face and brush your teeth, I'll buy you breakfast, otherwise I'll be late for school." ”

went downstairs until he entered Li Haoran's room, he deliberately closed the door, Wang Chu was a little stunned, and suddenly found that the young man in front of him had actually grown up.

"Mom." Li Haoran spoke, "Will you and your father divorce?" ”

"Haohao." Wang Chu sat on the edge of the bed and pulled Li Haoran in front of him, "Big."

I don't want to explain so much to you, you just need to go to school. ”

"Stop treating me like a child, I know everything." Li Haoran shook off Wang Chu's hand, "If you two divorce, I won't follow anyone." Then he slammed the door with his schoolbag on his back, and Wang Chu didn't stop when he screamed.
