three desperate women

Chapter 36

Liu Yini had the same sad and guilty dream for several consecutive nights, but she couldn't remember exactly what happened in the dream.

In the dream, I was pregnant with Xiao Xiao. When I woke up, the pillow towel was wet, and I was exhausted, and sometimes I was still sobbing uncontrollably.

Liu Yini recalled that when she was pregnant, her mood was extremely bad every day, she couldn't eat anything, sometimes she would vomit after drinking a sip of water, and would vomit yellow bile after eating a piece of chewing gum.

From the beginning of pregnancy, I dislike the child in my stomach every day and every moment.

In the morning, he was either woken up by the smell of Qiu Xiaochen's smoke, or by Qiu Xiaochen's coughing.

She opened her eyes, frowned, and stared at his back, as if the cough was contagious, she also started coughing, and coughing and coughing began to retch.

She struggled to get up, dragged her heavy legs, went to the bathroom to go to the bathroom, and retched even after brushing her teeth.

After everything was packed, she went out with her eldest daughter. After sending them to school, she followed the crowd and squeezed onto the bus. Even if you are wearing maternity clothes, you will not escape the fate of being squeezed.

After getting off the train at the station, she felt sick again. She stood at the station, blowing the wind, and managed to walk downstairs to Xinda Securities.

Immediately after she came to the office full of various smells, she could only stand in front of the window and stick her head out to breathe. All the smells of meat buns, leek boxes, and pancakes made her want to vomit.

She also has to keep talking to various people during her working hours. Her mouth is dry and she needs to drink water all the time, and then she keeps apologizing to customers to go to the bathroom, and she has to stand in front of the sink all the time. Retching.

After finally getting off work at night, after picking up the children and returning home, he had to endure the smell of oily smoke and smoke, and cook dinner. At that time, Qiu Xiaochen would often go home, but apart from playing games and swearing at others, it was basically useless.

Fortunately, Qiu Nuoyi's academic performance is good, and she doesn't need her to help with homework. She signed up for a care class when she was in primary school, and basically finished her homework there after school!
Finally, when it was time to take a shower and go to bed, she tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep. No matter how she lay down, she felt uncomfortable, and there was no comfortable position for her.

Qiu Xiaochen, who was awakened by her turning over, squinted her eyes and cursed. Sometimes she ignored him, and sometimes she kicked his ass, sending him flying.

Then there was his swearing again, she was used to hearing it, and she didn't talk back much, sometimes she would tell Qiu Xiaochen if she got impatient, and she would go to have an abortion tomorrow if she scolded again, every time it worked, Qiu Xiaochen would shut up immediately.

Finally, she was so sleepy that she couldn't stand it anymore, and she fell asleep slowly, but she only slept for more than two hours, and she had to get up to go to the bathroom, and she woke up more frequently at the later stage.

She suffered throughout her pregnancy, and the most vivid images in her memory were vomiting and urinating in the toilet, as well as Qiu Xiaochen's increasingly impatient face and harsh abuse.

Sometimes when I came back from the toilet in the middle of the night, looking at Qiu Xiaochen who was sleeping soundly, I really wanted to take out the sewing box, sew up his stinky mouth, and then fold him up and throw him downstairs!
Liu Yini lay on the bed with her eyes open, turned over gently, covered her daughter with the quilt, quietly walked out of the bedroom and closed the door, found a pack of cigarettes in her bag, and found the lighter in her coat. She took it from the front desk of the hotel where the funeral was held.

She came to the kitchen, opened a window, lit a cigarette, and took a few puffs. Before her red, swollen and hoarse throat healed, she coughed several times, and her nose and tears flowed out.

She quickly took out a few sheets of kitchen paper, wiped her face, put her elbows on the window sill, and then looked up at the stars in the sky, one of which was shining towards her.

Liu Yini started talking to the air in a hoarse voice:

"Xiao Xiao, is that you? Mom's little baby, have you finally reached your Paradise? You don't have your mother by your side there, are you still used to it?
Sometimes my mother is quite envious of you. You can be carefree every day, eat sweet and delicious lollipops every day, and leave the painful world at the best age.

Maybe it’s your best destiny not to feel the sadness in your mother’s life, but mother is sorry for you. From the moment she knew you were in her mother’s womb, her mother disliked you a little. Are you in her mother’s belly? Are you feeling impatient with your mother?
So you were so sensible when you were born, you know how to make your sister happy, you know how to make your mother happy, you are so well-behaved and obedient, you can understand your mother's hard work at a young age.

Mom really feels guilty. Since she brought you into this world, she didn't take good care of you, and let you leave mom at such a young age. Mom also hates your dad, but what can I do?

You knew he was a scum, but you never made up your mind to leave him. If your mother had taken you and your sister away from him earlier, wouldn't you have had an accident?
Don't blame Dad, no matter how you say it, he doesn't want you to have an accident. He is just a little selfish and only thinks about himself.

Little, don't worry about mom, okay?Mom is much stronger than you imagined, mom will take good care of my sister, mom will live a wonderful life, you will know when we meet, okay?"

Liu Yini wiped the tears from her face with her hands, took another deep breath of the cigarette, and continued to look at the quiet night, the sky full of silent but occasionally shining stars.

Suddenly, she heard the sound of the toilet in the bathroom, and subconsciously twisted the cigarette butt on the corner of the window sill, extinguished the cigarette butt, and threw it into the trash can.

When she walked out of the kitchen, she saw her daughter walking back to the bedroom in a daze after going to the bathroom.

She came to the bathroom, brushed her teeth again, washed her tired and tear-stained face, changed her clothes, and walked back to the bedroom gently.

She lay beside her daughter, hugged her gently, and smelled the unique smell of her daughter.

She thought in her heart: "Mom still has you, you must be fine, Xiaoxiao will protect us!"

After sending Yi Yi to school early in the morning, Liu Yini hurried into the subway station with her bag on her back.

At 8 o'clock in the morning, she showed up on time in Room 1008 of Dream Building, Zhiyuan Law Firm.

But she found that only Hu Bingqing and Lu Aisha were there.

"Second sister."

"Ni Ni, you are here!" Hu Bingqing walked over and hugged her thin body, then took her hand and walked into Hu Bingqing's office together.

"Second sister, am I early?"

"Well, normal law firms work from 08:30 to [-]:[-], flexible hours.

Let me tell you the basic situation of the law firm first. For now, Zhiyuan only has me as the director, the polished commander. li
Lu Aisha, the girl just now is my assistant and also a trainee lawyer.

She is a student of my mentor. She just graduated this year and has passed the law test, but she is currently unable to handle cases independently.

Then there are lawyers who can handle cases independently, just like the Jiangnan you met before, he has completed his internship.

In the past, Zhiyuan was very big and had many lawyers, but due to the uproar caused by Li Tingting's fall from the building, it is estimated that the original lawyers would follow Gaoxin to seek refuge with Chengzhi.

Today we made an appointment to see how many can come, but I don't give too much hope.

At present, we need to recruit soldiers and horses. Ni Ni, you are responsible for the recruitment first, and I will give you the contact information of the person in charge of the recruitment website later.

Aisha will give you the recruitment conditions I asked for, and you can follow the guidance of the recruitment website and post the recruitment position to the website.

Then after you receive a certain number of resumes, you need to call the interviewer to come for an interview, and finally we will decide on new employees.

Ni Ni, don't find it difficult. I asked you to come and help me. It's also the first time for me to take care of these things by myself. Before, I only dealt with cases. Let's learn together!

Let's go, I will accompany you to choose a position you like, thank you, Ni Ni, I am very grateful for coming to help me. "

"Second sister, I thank you for helping me too much!"

The two came to the office area outside, and Liu Yini chose the one closest to the tea room.

After she sat down, the girl named Lu Aisha handed her a folder with a business card on it.

She started her work, brand new, put her bag on the right side of the desk, turned on the computer, and picked up the phone to call the person in charge of the recruiting company.

After finishing the contact, she looked up and saw the glass door of the law firm, and more than a dozen people walked in one after another.

She saw Hu Bingqing's expression filled with emotion, and they walked into the conference room together.

Under the guidance of the person in charge, Liu Yini filled out the recruitment requirements of Zhiyuan Law Firm and posted them all.

Then she came to the tea room, found a paper cup, took a glass of water, returned to her seat, and began to browse resumes again.

After Hu Bingqing held a meeting with a group of people, everyone walked out of the conference room together. Everyone looked very happy, and they found a satisfactory seat and sat down.

"Thank you for your trust in me, Hu Bingqing. I know that my character is not flattering, but I ask you to believe in your choices. With everyone's concerted efforts, I believe that Zhiyuan will go further and further. Thank you!"

Hu Bingqing bowed deeply to everyone.

This is the first time since Liu Yini got to know Hu Bingqing, she saw Hu Bingqing lowering her noble head in front of others.

Liu Yini watched Hu Bingqing turn around and walk into the office, and the assistant named Lu Aisha walked towards her, and she immediately stood up.

"Sister Ni Ni, the time for the second trial has been set. It will be next Friday morning. Don't forget to go to the court in the morning."

"Okay, thank you Aisha!"

When eating at noon, everyone ordered takeaway together, and Liu Yini also ordered a portion.

After lunch, some lawyers left straight away when they had a case, and some lawyers also went out to meet clients, and a few of them were sorting out the things on their desks.

Hu Bingqing and Lu Aisha are also going out together.

"Ni Ni, I guess everyone will be away in a while. I haven't recruited the front desk yet, so I can only trouble you to take a part-time job first. I won't be back until late. If you have something to do, go first. If you don't have something to do, you can wait until five o'clock."

"Okay, Director!"

Lu Aisha taught her how to turn on the alarm and how to lock the door of the law firm, and then the two walked out of the law firm.

In the end there was only one very young girl left in the office, and that girl came up to her with some books.

"Sister Ni Ni, my name is Li Xiaoli, you can call me Lili, I just came to the law firm, I just became a salaried lawyer last year, and I don't have any cases, so I'm relatively free compared to other people.

The director said, let me help you a lot. Take these books back and read them. They are the materials I studied before. You can read them first. When the new textbooks for next year come out, you can buy new ones to read! "

"Thank you, Attorney Li!"

"You're welcome, Miss Ni Ni."

Liu Yini sat on the seat, opened those books, and started to feel sleepy after 10 minutes of reading, and it was completely different from the courses she learned in college 20 years ago. In fact, to be honest, she no longer remembers what she learned in college , just remember the subject name.

She searched for various information about the judicial examination on the Internet, took a piece of paper in the printing room, and recorded the information found on the Internet.

Lawyer Li had something to say hello to her and left first, leaving only one legal layman (female) Liu Yini in the entire Nuoda office.

Liu Yini looked at the wall clock on the wall, it was almost five o'clock, she tidied up her things and put that study material into her bag.

She went to the gate, turned off all the lights, turned on the alarm, closed the glass door, and walked into the elevator.

The people who get off work with her are all people who work in the Dream Building. They are all kinds of people from all walks of life. Everyone who passes by her face is full of excitement after work, and they are all tired from a day's work.

She walked out of the Dream Building with the crowd, walked into the sidewalk, and entered the subway in a line, and squeezed into the carriage in a line.

It took her a long time to get out of the car, so she randomly found a corner of the carriage and stood there. She took out the law study materials and flipped through them casually. There were also lawyer Li's notes on it.

She looked at it and slowly felt a little familiar, but there were still many things she couldn't understand or understand.

There were more and more people, and she didn't even have room to open the book. Her face was pressed tightly against the book, so she had to put the book back in the bag, and even had to hold the bag in her hand.

It was the first time she felt the crowded subway during the rush hour. She dangled for four or ten minutes and finally arrived at the station. She was afraid that Yiyi was too anxious to wait in the trusteeship, so she started to run.

As soon as she got out of the subway, she heard her daughter's cry.

"mom!"

"Hey, Yiyi, I'm sorry, isn't it too late, mom!"

"It's okay, Mom, I'll wait for you at the subway station entrance from now on."

"Is it okay? Will you be afraid if you walk over by yourself?"

"Mom, I'm not afraid. Go home, I'm hungry!"

"Ok."

Liu Yini held her daughter's soft hand, and the two walked back to the apartment while talking and laughing.

After her daughter went to bed, she took out the book again. She sat on the carpet in front of the coffee table, found a few pens in her daughter's pen holder, and found a calculation book, and read the book seriously!

The vibrating sound of the mobile phone woke up Liu Yini who was sleeping on the coffee table. She wiped her saliva with her hand, opened the phone and checked, it turned out to be a text message, an unfamiliar number.

"Next Wednesday at eight o'clock in the morning, see you at the Civil Affairs Bureau, Qiu Xiaochen."
