Ji Huai and Ai Qiao walked out of the factory. They originally held her shoulders, but it was inconvenient to walk behind them, so they pulled her and continued walking forward.
She let him pull her, holding her big belly, and after walking for a while, she stopped and took her hand out of his hand, "Where are we going?"
"Looking for a house." Ji Huai turned around, his eyebrows furrowed and his jaw tensed.
"What are you angry about? You haven't told me where you went last night? I've been waiting for you for four hours, why don't we go back?" She couldn't help it anymore and asked a series of questions.
From just now until now, she has been waiting for him to explain, but he has not taken any action. Such a serious matter made her feel like she had done something wrong.
"I won't reply." He said it lightly, but he was actually avoiding her question, with a guilty conscience in his eyes.
Ai Qiao continued to stare at him, her clear eyes filled with grievance.
I agreed to take her back.
Then she can issue a certificate and get the certificate. She is eight months pregnant and does not have a legal identity yet.
Ji Huai looked over, feeling a little clogged and swollen in his heart.
In his first life, he was a complete, inhumane and profit-oriented scumbag. In order to maximize his interests, he did not let the unexpectedly pregnant Ai Qiao have an abortion. Instead, he proposed to her, making her trust him wholeheartedly. She was willing to make money and save money in the factory, cheating money and sex, and at the same time, she was allowed to work as a free nanny.
Under the pretense of going back, he asked her to wait at the station, took all the money and valuables, and disappeared without thinking of any consequences.
Ai Qiao was just the test subject of his first "Scumbag Project". In the era when the Internet was underdeveloped, he successfully tested it on her and achieved great success. He continued to use this trick and deceived many people. Girl, her moral character has been continuously upgraded, and she can live a carefree and comfortable life. In the end, she also made a little fortune, and her family is extremely wealthy.
If there is retribution, it is that he was childless in his last life. He raised the children of his two younger brothers, but in the end he raised a family of white-eyed wolves.
In the end, his old age was miserable, with no one to die.
People say that there is reincarnation. He was a scumbag for twenty-three lives. His sins were too serious to be reincarnated. He was sent to the twenty-first level of hell, installed with a "reformation system", and began to atone for his sins.
The so-called "reform" is to atone for his sins. Of course, considering that he is already an extremely rational and selfish guy, he can only be forced into the "good man training system".
To put it simply, how much he pretended to love Ai Qiao before, but now he really loves her.
The system will adjust his emotional threshold based on memory, turning him from a hypocritical good man into a "real" good man.
"We have no money to go back." He looked at her, sighed, and slowly walked to her side again.
If before, he only had kidneys and no emotions, he would naturally not have any emotional changes, and would analyze her behavior very rationally, use the greatest energy to comfort her, and benefit himself regardless of the consequences, but now he has absorbed the memory , inherit the emotion, at this time, he can't see her being wronged, his heart will hurt, and his mood will fluctuate accordingly.
"Where's the money?" she asked, her eyes anxious.
Their money was stored in the passbook, which she kept. When he was about to go back, he took out all the money because he said it would take several days by car. After getting off the bus, he had to rush back by bus. There were no banks around. The time was very inconvenient, so he put the money he took out in his bag.
She worked until she was eight months pregnant, staying up late every day on the production line, not willing to spend a dollar, just to save money to get married with him and have children.
Tell her now that she has no money to go back
"When I bought the ticket, it was stolen." He squatted down in pain, his face full of frustration, and his tone was painful, "I even saw the thief, he was right behind me, it was more than two thousand yuan, I could only I chased him until we reached an alley, but I didn’t expect that he had a gang, so they beat me up and knocked me unconscious.”
"The bags were snatched away. They were all snatched away."
Seeing the torment on his face, Ai Qiao also began to have chest tightness and shortness of breath, and became a little light-headed. Her first reaction was to worry about him, "Are you injured? Do you have a headache?"
Ji Huai shook his head.
She breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but choke up, "Then what should we do?"
She also has a baby.
Now tell her that all the money is gone. At this time, they are in a foreign land, and money is life.
"Everyone was robbed, except for the two hundred yuan hidden in the soles of the shoes." Ji Huai covered his face, his eyes scarlet, "I'm going to call the police when I wake up, but I'm worried about you, so I'll go find you first. You're gone. I I've been looking for you for a long time, and I've been looking for you all over the station many, many times."
"I also wanted to call the police, but the missing time was too short. No one paid attention to me. They only accepted the robbery case, but there were no clues."
…
He kept blaming himself, and even felt a little angry, as if he had not yet accepted this reality, and was trapped in a vicious circle, suffering endlessly.
He was particularly conflicted and unwilling. He threatened to go to the station to squat down tomorrow, and he had to catch those people out and take revenge.
Although Ai Qiao was worried about money, angry and helpless, compared to last night when she was devastated and despairing, at least he was still there and still had two hundred dollars, so it wasn't too bad.
"What will happen to me and the child if something happens to you?" She had to endure the loss to comfort him.
"More than two thousand yuan, just give it to them?" Ji Huai stood up with a heartbroken look on his face, staring and gritting his teeth, "I can't just give them something so cheap, I have to make them pay the price!"
It was as if the emotions he had been squeezing suddenly came out, and his face turned livid.
In fact, he never took any money to deposit in the bank. The passbooks were all forged. Some of the money was sent home, and the rest was secretly used by him to eat, drink and have fun.
Even the "money" he took out from the bank was bought very cheaply and was used to fool Ai Qiao. He was haggard because he went to play cards all night last night and lost more than 500 yuan. He was depressed and depressed. Sleepy.
"There are many of them, and you only have one person. How can you beat them? If they are gone, they will be gone." Ai Qiao accepted his fate.
Ji Huai took a deep look at her, and then his eyes fell on her raised belly, becoming even more impatient.
After such an experience, Ai Qiao felt like he was on a roller coaster. He didn't know what to say, and he didn't have much strength in what he said. "As long as the person is safe, forget about the rest."
Ji Huai was silent for a while, then took out the remaining two hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to her, "All our money."
She lowered her eyes and looked down, then slowly stretched out her hand to take it, holding the two hundred yuan in her hand. She touched her belly with her other hand, and her eyes gradually dimmed again.
what can we do about it
They had nothing but these two hundred dollars.
"I'm not going back. Let's find a house to live in first." Ji Huai said his plan and took action immediately.
The two of them first went to the place where they rented a house before to see if there was any room available for rent. The landlord told them that the house previously rented to them had already been reserved. If they wanted to rent it, he could give it to them first because of their past reputation. But the rent will be increased from 80 yuan a month to 90 yuan a month.
There are only two hundred yuan left, how can Ai Qiao be willing to spend it
She refused the landlord's request without hesitation, and the two of them walked further in, to a more remote place. They only spent thirty yuan and rented a shabby first floor room with a shared bathroom.
It was a small room with a shabby bed that was only 1.2 meters tall. The room was full of debris and extremely dirty. The sofa was old and had several big holes in it.
Ai Qiao was cleaning, while Ji Huai went to his friend to get the quilt and clothes he had left before.
After struggling for a long time, at night, it was dark.
Meals are eaten outside.
In the small restaurant, a spoonful of vegetables costs 50 cents, and a spoonful of meat costs 1 yuan. Two people can eat for 5 yuan. There is also free green onion soup, and Ji Huai drank two bowls in a row.
When passing by a fruit stall, Ai Qiao looked at the sweet and sour plums for two yuan and a half per pound.
"Buy some for you?" Ji Huai asked.
"I won't eat anymore." She shook her head repeatedly.
"Buy half a catty." As a scumbag, he certainly understands women's hearts. If you don't want it, you just want it. When he said it, there was deep self-blame in his eyes, "It's all my fault. If I had known it, I wouldn't have gone back. I originally wanted to I tried to get the marriage done before you gave birth, but unexpectedly it got messed up instead."
"It's okay." Ai Qiao had already accepted the fact. Looking at the two people's clasped hands, she felt less panic in her heart. She also pursed her lips at him and showed a slight smile.
No matter how difficult the days were, she had survived them all. As long as the two of them were together, they would survive.
He didn't want to do anything like this either.
Ji Huai insisted on buying her a dollar and a half of plums, and it cost the two of them a lot of money to buy necessary supplies.
After returning home, Ai Qiao sat on the bed and ate plums dipped in chili salt. It was so sour that she squinted her eyes, but she thought it was delicious. She looked at Ji Huai who was busy doing something and said, "I I will go back to work in the factory tomorrow, do you want to go?"
She had just left not long ago, and there was a shortage of manpower there, so she should be able to go in again.
If he works for another month, he can earn several hundred yuan. Then he will go to work and he will not be depressed.
"You are about to give birth, and you are still smelling that smell. It is not good for the child." He did not agree. The jeans made in the factory were all cheap. The fabric was not very good and the smell was very strong.
"If you are the only one working, you won't make enough money." She said worriedly. The current situation between the two of them did not allow her to think too much.
"I won't go back." He pursed his lips and said directly, as arrogant as ever.
"No matter what you want to do, can you stabilize the situation for a few months first? We must be able to pay for the hospital expenses for the birth of the child." She persuaded with extreme helplessness and sorrow.
He mostly followed her and saved money for her, but he always thought about starting a business and making a lot of money.
The few quarrels they had were because he hated the assembly line job and always felt it restricted him, so he kept arguing with her.
"I didn't say it was unstable. The salary in the factory is only 311, and if I don't work overtime, it's only more than 200. When will I earn it? I'm going to the construction site tomorrow. There are construction sites everywhere now, and people are being recruited everywhere. How much can I earn in one day? It’s twenty-three yuan, including breakfast and lunch.” He told his plan.
"You want to go to the construction site? You have to do hard work." She was surprised. She felt it was too hard and couldn't help but said, "Actually, it doesn't matter. I can still go to work. If I talk to them, I can still work for a month."
"I asked you to stay at home and stay at home. What's wrong with the hard work? It's not like I don't have the strength." Ji Huai didn't seem to want to say more. He fell on the bed and pulled the quilt to cover himself, "Go to bed and go to the construction site tomorrow. "
Seeing this, Ai Qiao moved her lips, but finally said nothing.
The pressure in his heart must be greater than hers, so let's wait and see after tomorrow.
With his eyes closed, Ji Huai's mind was indeed confused. In this life, he had never done any hard work and lived a happy life by relying only on his brain.
But not now, he can't be a scumbag anymore.
Letting Ai Qiao endure hardship is worse than letting him endure hardship.
