three desperate women

Chapter 23 A New Life
Pei Ziyang stood at the door of the 18-square-meter jump on the 160th floor of Tianxin Garden. She looked out through the open window. The hot summer morning sun was shining in the empty living room. With a clatter, she turned around and closed the door.

The newly rented house is in the Runyu Community near the Software Park, just above the parents' supermarket. The walls have been repainted, and all the furniture that could not be sold in the previous loft have been brought in, as well as some daily necessities and old ones. clothing.

Liu Yini brought her 11-year-old eldest daughter to help her tidy up the bedroom. Lao Jin led a group of people to move all the heavy boxes in. The group of people worked all morning, and finally it looked like a home.

The whole group ate a hot pot meal at home, lively, chatting and laughing, after eating, Lao Jin and his gang left, leaving Liu Yini to help her clean up the tableware, and then tidy up the clothes together.

"Mom, this dress is so pretty!" Yiyi took out a dress and held it up to look at it.

"Do you like it one by one? Auntie will give it to you! Will you wear it when you grow up?"

"Really? Really? Mom, may I have it?"

"Auntie gave it to you, just take it!"

"Thank you, Aunt Yangyang!" Yiyi took the clothes and walked into the bathroom.

"Ziyang, these clothes are all good, and many of them are new! You can still wear them after giving birth."

"No, I didn't know if I was blind when I bought it. Now it looks like some flashy things. They are packaged and sold, and they are giving away or something! Ni Ni, take a look, these new ones contain Whatever you like, whatever fits you, I will give it to you, as long as you don't dislike it!"

"Okay, I don't dislike it, some of your clothes are too expensive, and the brand hasn't been picked yet!"

"I've already sold most of them, and I'll pick out the rest that I can wear, and pack the rest as gifts, as well as shoes, nini, your feet are too small." Pei Ziyang said, Looking down at Liu Yini's feet, she frowned.

"Hahaha, I basically buy discounted children's shoes!"

The two laughed together, and walked out of the bathroom excitedly wearing oversized dresses.

"Mom, mom, do you look good? Am I good-looking? Look at me!"

As soon as the two looked up, they laughed together again!
She has lived here for a while, and she doesn't want to be alone, so she often comes to the supermarket to help out. When there are no customers in the supermarket, she watches the people coming and going in the community through the glass window.

One evening, Pei Ziyang came to her parents' supermarket. Her father was sitting at the door, watching the delivery man move the goods. She walked into the store and sat at the cashier to check out.

The phone on the counter rang.

"Hello, good luck to the convenience store! Mom, yes, I got it! Got it! Got it!" She hung up the phone and shouted to Father Pei at the door.

"Dad, my mother said you should go home for dinner after receiving the goods."

"Understood, Dayang, I'll bring you something to eat when I come back!"

"Okay, Dad, you go up the stairs slowly!"

"Just three steps, it's fine."

She sat at the counter and watched the monitor. After the goods were unloaded, her father left home. Looking at his rickety and old back, his legs with difficulty in moving, and his staggering steps, tears were shed.

She found that her emotions after pregnancy were always ever-changing. A casual word would make her fly into a rage, and an insignificant scene would make her suddenly collapse and burst into tears.

She used to be a nurse, and she also knew that during pregnancy, her body's hormones were unbalanced, but she just couldn't control it. What happened to her before, she basically forgot about it after sleeping, and she didn't go into it, but now she often Couldn't sleep, tossed and turned, couldn't fall asleep, and always had to go to the bathroom.

In front of the supermarket is the road at the gate of Runyu Community. There are many people and cars passing by from morning to night every day. This community is very close to the Software Park, but it also belongs to the fringe area of ​​the entire Binhai City. The housing price is in the middle range. The community The people living here are all young people who work in the nearby software park, and Meng Haiyang used to be one of them.

The house that the couple rented here before they won the lottery is basically the same as the house they live in now. When they first got married, they rented a shared house. The next door was also a couple who worked in the software park. Later they got married and lived in a I bought a house further away and moved away.

She thought about not sharing the rent with others. The two of them bought two buckets of white wall paint, wore hats folded from newspapers on their heads, and wore worn-out clothes. They carefully painted all the walls.

It was summer vacation, and Pei Ziliang also came to help. The three of them were busy for a week, and finally the whole room looked brand new. They moved the worn-out orange sofa bed out of the living room, bought a second-hand bed, and bought some big red happy words to paste on it. For the window, I bought two red towels and a four-piece red bedding set.

They used the remaining paint to paint the original solid wood cabinets, tables, and bedside tables to white. They also cleaned the kitchen and spent 200 yuan to clean the range hood and air conditioner.

Pei Ziyang bargained for more than half an hour with the aunt in the morning market, and bought a lot of cheap floral tablecloths, dark curtains, sofa bedding, and pillows.

At that time, she looked at her new home and was very happy every day. Whenever she had time, she went to buy lottery tickets with Meng Haiyang. When she got home and sat on the sofa bed, she took out two one-dollar coins and started scratching the prize. It can hit hundreds of hits, and sometimes it fails.

She started learning from boiling water, and in seven years, she learned to cook a table of dishes that are not repeated, and she is also very proficient in housework.

When she went back to her parents' house occasionally, her mother always scolded her for being heartless, but she ignored it and never took it to heart. Her father also asked her what she liked about Meng Haiyang?She really thought about it seriously for a long time.

Meng Haiyang is a very good-tempered person, and his voice is gentle and friendly, which is completely different from his family members. At Pei's house, the family members discuss a TV plot together, and they speak at a high octave. Neighbors who don't know should call the police. I thought the Pei family was fighting.

Meng Haiyang is not tall, not too different from her, and is also very thin. He wears glasses. He looks like a man of science and engineering. Taking care of his sick mother is a heavy burden, and almost all of his salary is mailed home.

He doesn't have high requirements for food, clothing, and use. He only likes to buy lottery tickets. The idea of ​​getting rich overnight has never dissipated. For entertainment, if you win, you will be happy, if you don’t, it’s just like that, there is no obsession.

The only knot between the two people is the child. It is not a fault of one person, but both have problems. Meng Haiyang has low sperm quality, more dead sperm, and less live sperm, while she herself has polycystic ovaries. There are several bad-quality sperms in a row, and the sperm and eggs are always unable to meet under natural circumstances. Sometimes she wonders, how did the first child come about?
The salary of the two of them, apart from the rent, utilities, and living expenses, is to subsidize her mother-in-law, the lottery ticket, and the hospital. After a month, there is not much money left in her hands. Sometimes, she will be unable to make ends meet when she catches up with the dinner party. She often asks her father to borrow money. , Sometimes when my mother is not at home, I move the rice, noodles, oil, fruits and vegetables at home back to the rental house like ants moving house.

Although the married life is tight, Meng Haiyang and Pei Ziyang seldom quarrel. Even if Pei Ziyang loses his temper because of trivial matters, Meng Haiyang seldom speaks loudly. Either kiss her, or make love to her on a second-hand bed.

But now?Where did Meng Haiyang go?
Pei Ziyang's eyes were blurred with tears again as she thought about it, she took out a piece of paper and wiped it.

The sensor at the entrance of the supermarket recalled a crisp voice: "Welcome!"

Lao Jin came in with a bag of imported biscuits, looked at her with a smile and said:
"Hey, sister Yangyang, you are so sentimental and miss your husband?"

Seeing him, Pei Ziyang grinned, but didn't speak.

"The two cars are sold, the seven properties have been dealt with, all the debts have been paid off, and there is still some left in the account. Do you want cash or a transfer? Is the transfer Alipay or WeChat?"

"Just forward it to me on WeChat! Thank you!"

"Okay. Here, new snacks! I brought you one specially! Try it." Lao Jin handed her the biscuit in his hand.

"Thank you, Lao Jin!" Pei Ziyang opened the snack after taking it and tasted it, it was not bad.

She looked at Lao Jin, and sometimes she couldn't figure out how this 40-year-old man was so hot and loyal to eating all kinds of snacks.She heard from Monkey that he used to smoke, but she had never seen Lao Jin smoke.

The phone rang, and she picked it up to see that 10 yuan had been credited to WeChat, her eyes widened several times in surprise.

"Can there be so much left? I didn't count, so I will keep it. Thank you very much, Lao Jin, I think I am really lucky to know you in this life!" famous.

"Hey, hey, stop! Sister Yangyang, don't be so grateful, it's a pleasure to meet you, I seem to see my mother again, she passed away a long time ago!"

"Then, if you don't dislike me, you can recognize me as your sister! You know I have a younger brother, so I will definitely treat her equally."

"Oh, I was scared to death. I thought you were going to recognize me as your son?"

Pei Ziyang started to laugh again and trembled all over, this time tears of joy were left behind.

Father Pei walked over slowly, and when Lao Jin saw that he was holding a thermos in his hand, he hurried out to greet him. As a result, the thermos supported Father Pei again, said this with a smile, and then walked into the supermarket.

Seeing the smiling faces of Lao Jin and his father, Pei Ziyang ate the biscuits that Lao Jin gave him, and couldn't help saying: "It's so sweet!"

Lao Jin walked beside Pei Ziyang, carrying the thermos, and the two of them walked towards the rental house.

Lao Jin sat on the sofa and waited for Pei Ziyang to finish his dinner, and brought her a tissue. She wiped her mouth lightly and said, "Thank you!"

"You're welcome! Godmother!"

Pei Ziyang chewed and swallowed the last mouthful, almost spit it out, coughed a few times, and found some leakage of urine.

With her face flushed, she ran into the toilet, cleaned it up, and found some blood stains, and her brain started to go berserk, she changed into a pair of underwear, and put on a pad.

She ran out quickly and almost ran into Lao Jin who was anxious at the door.

"What's the matter with you? Don't scare me!" Lao Jin asked anxiously.

"I, I'm a little red, I think I need to go to the hospital!"

"Okay, don't worry, my wife used to be popular when she was pregnant with my son, don't be afraid, my car is parked in front of the supermarket, I'll drive over, you put on your shoes first, can you go?"

"Old Jin, I'm nervous and a little scared!" Pei Ziyang started to tremble, holding the handle of the bathroom with his hands.

"I'm here, come, I'll hug you, don't be nervous, you're really fine!" Lao Jin said, picked up Pei Ziyang and walked out of the house.

"Old Jin, don't let my dad see you, go drive, I'll wait for you at the door!"

"Okay, don't be nervous, take a deep breath, it's okay, you hold the stairs!"

"Okay!" Pei Ziyang took a deep breath, holding the lever of the stairs with both hands.

After a few minutes, Lao Jin ran in with big strides, picked her up, put her gently in the back seat of the car, and went straight to the emergency room of the hospital.
