Chapter 5: Six Years Later
Xia Xiaogu didn't ruthlessly shed this child in the end, she was already an orphan, and if she shed this child again, it would be equivalent to killing this child with her own hands.
She felt that she would be punished for doing such a thing, so in order to feel better for herself, she kept the child.
It's just that she herself is not able to support herself, she used to rely on the Han family to live a carefree life, but now the Han family suddenly cut off contact with her, and if she wants to support herself and the child in her belly, she can only look for a part-time job.
Finding a part-time job was not smooth, she did not have a diploma that she could use, and in the eyes of others, she was a foreign girl and was looked down upon by the locals.
In order to save money, she found the cheapest single room to rent.
Xia Xiaogu looked at the balance in her card again, it was the pocket money she had saved before, but now it has become her lifesaver.
She needs to use the money to sustain herself until the birth of her child.
Until one day she came out of the supermarket and was threatened by a man with a knife, and in order to survive, she transferred all the money she had to the robber.
After calling the police, the police kept looking for the robber until they contacted her and she said that the robber was dead. Her money was gone.
When Xia Xiaogu was desperate, he took the initiative to call Han Shao for the first time.
It was the first time she had called him since she came abroad.
Before making this call, she thought that she might be rejected by Han Shao, but for the sake of the child in her belly, she still had the cheekiness to call Han Shao.
The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up by a man.
"Brother Han Shao."
"Xia Xiaogu, what's the matter with you?" Still an impatient voice.
It's as if she's just a nuisance, constantly looking for things for him!
Xia Xiaogu smiled bitterly, and just wanted to say borrow money, but was interrupted by a soft female voice on the other end of the phone.
"Han Shao, come to dinner!"
It's Zhao Kexin's voice! didn't expect them to be together so soon, Xia Xiaogu's heart was suffocated, and when the words for money came to her mouth, she finally swallowed them back.
"It's okay." Xia Xiaogu hung up the phone in despair.
Han Shao looked at the phone that hung up, only to feel inexplicable, what to do when he called him if he had nothing to do?
It seems that the woman called him just to tease him, thinking that she would get rid of her previous bad habits when she went abroad, he really overestimated her, she is still so annoying!
Zhao Kexin walked towards him, "Don't move if you're injured." ”
Han Shao frowned, "You go back, I'm not breaking my hand again." ”
"But ......"
"It's nothing, but I can't die."
"Alright then, I'll go first, something will call me."
Since knowing that Han Shao and Zhao Kexin were together, Xia Xiaogu didn't ask the people of the Han family for money anymore, and the people of the Han family didn't send her any more money as if she didn't exist.
As the days went on, Xia Xiaogu's belly gradually bulged, she now lives in a simple single room every day, attending classes during the day and working two part-time jobs at night, although she works so hard, it is only a drop in the bucket, and the money earned from part-time work is only barely enough for her living expenses and the surgery fee for the birth of the child.
Now that the weather is cold, her hands and feet are frostbitten, in the Han family, there will be people to help her scald her feet with hot water when she gets chilblains in winter, but now the chilblains on her hands and feet are bleeding pus, and no one cares about her.
When she was at her hardest, when she was the saddest, she would take out that family photo to comfort herself, they just wanted to exercise her in this way, and they must not have abandoned her.
But the facts are in front of them, they haven't been in touch with her for months, and they don't care how she's doing abroad.
She was suddenly afraid to call back, afraid that the facts would break her heart.
Later, the child was born before term, Xia Xiaogu hemorrhaged profusely and almost died in the delivery room, but fortunately, God favored her and pulled her back from heaven.
In the winter snow, she held the newborn child in her arms, limping into the snow, several times, she had the idea of suicide, but thinking of such a small life, she couldn't lose her life because of her selfishness, she gritted her teeth and survived.
Six years later.
A young man with a sign in his hand was struggling to squeeze through the crowd and move forward.
At the exit of the airport, a tall and thin woman is walking towards this side with a cute little girl in her hand, the woman has long hair and a shawl, wears a black windbreaker, wide-legged pants, and black boots, looking a little intellectually beautiful.
It's been six years, and she is no longer the little girl who didn't know the world before, she is twenty-six years old, and her height is a cut taller than before, and her baby's fat face has become a goose egg face.
And the little girl in her hand, wearing two braids, wearing a white dress, a round apple face, looks fleshy.
"Xia Xiaogu, here!" The young man waved a sign at her.
Xia Xiaogu took off his sunglasses and saw the baby face in the crowd at a glance, and that face was somewhat similar to Amy.
"Ai Chenghe?"
Ai Chenghe squeezed out of the crowd, stood in front of her, and scratched his head embarrassedly, "Yes, I didn't expect Miss Xia to be so young and beautiful, this is Xiaocao, right?" ”
"My daughter Xiaocao."
Ai Chenghe opened his mouth wide, he didn't expect the grass to be so big? This kid looks too cute, isn't he? But why does this little face look so familiar?
Xia Xiaocao grinned sweetly at him, "Hello uncle." ”
Ai Chenghe couldn't help but squat down and look at Xia Xiaocao, "Xiaocao is so cute, it's the first time I've come to M City, right?" Have time for Uncle to take you to play? ”
"Wow, thank you, uncle." Xia Xiaocao stepped forward, stood on tiptoe, and smacked his small mouth on the side of his face.
Ai Chenghe was amused, "I finally know why my sister often mentions you in front of me, such a cute little baby, who doesn't love it?" ”
Xia Xiaogu clasped her hands around her chest, she was indulgent to her daughter's unrestrainedness, and it was because of her own introverted personality that she hoped that her daughter's personality would be more extroverted.
Xia Xiaocao chuckled, and then said with a little ghost, "Uncle, in fact, my mother is single, can you ask my mother together by the way?" ”
Ai Chenghe secretly glanced at Xia Xiaogu, she looked so beautiful, she was single? He said shyly, "As long as your mother wants to, I'm more than happy." ”
Xia Xiaogu pulled her daughter back to her and said with great embarrassment, "Children are talking nonsense, don't worry!" ”
"It's okay, the car is over there, come with me, I'll take you to the accommodation." Ai Chenghe has two houses in the city, one of which he lives in, and the other one has been empty and unoccupied, just enough to take them to live.
Xia Xiaogu hurriedly explained, "I'm sorry for you, I'll move when I find a suitable house!" ”
She had just returned to China, and she had not yet found a suitable place to live, so she could only temporarily disturb Amy's brother for a while.
As for the Han family, although she had returned, she didn't want to disturb the people of the Han family.
In the past six years, she has not contacted them, and they have not contacted her, so when she came back this time, she didn't think about going to the Han family at all.
She now just wants to live quietly alone with her daughter without anyone disturbing her.
Ai Chenghe waved his hand, "Don't bother, that house is already empty." ”
Despite what the other party said, Xia Xiaogu was still very grateful to the other party.
And Amy, if she hadn't met Amy abroad, she would have died abroad.
Amy has helped her a lot over the years, and she is grateful to Amy as a friend.
