Chapter 105
When Dongqing walked to the door, a silver Bora happened to drive over.

Dongqing recognized that this was Zhou You's car, and quickly stepped forward to open the door, helped out Jia Lie who was sitting next to her, took out a mask from her pocket and put it on her, and then turned to follow Zhou You in the car. Thanks.

"It's okay. I'll take them back one by one. Don't worry." Zhou You waved his hand to Dongqing who was almost carrying Jia Lie outside the car and started the car.

It is said that three women are worth a thousand ducks. Although one is gone, there are still two left. These six to seven hundred ducks are enough to travel around.While Zhou You drove, he prevented Han Guyu from jumping on the steering wheel at any time. Sun Yan sat in the back seat of the car, laughing, crying, and howling, which frightened him so much that he could only drive as slowly as possible.

Dongqing helped Jia Lie, who was unsteady on his feet, into the house. Jia Lie didn't even have time to take off his shoes when he suddenly covered his mouth and ran towards the toilet.

Dongqing Xin couldn't help but rushed over.Jia Lie couldn't hold it back and vomited half a meter away from the toilet. She didn't even have time to pull off the mask, and the vomit was all stained on her only mask.

Seeing Jia Lie's painful look when vomiting, Dongqing felt uncomfortable.He knew why she wanted to drink, and he also knew why she was in pain, so he didn't blame her. He wiped her thoroughly without any complaints. When she couldn't spit anything out, he asked her to rinse her mouth and helped her to the next level. on the sofa.

"I'll get you some warm water to drink." After letting her lie on the sofa, Holly turned to get water.

Jia Lie covered his face and suddenly started to cry: "What will our family... do in the future?"

Dongqing paused, unable to answer this question.

The child sleeping in the room was awakened by the noise outside and called "Daddy".Dongqing hurriedly went in to comfort the child, but the child didn't sleep enough. Dongqing went to comfort him for a while and then continued to lie down.

When Holly came out again, she shivered because of the cold wind in front of her.

He didn't know where the cold wind came from. When he raised his head and looked at the window of the living room, his legs weakened with fear.Jia Lie didn't know when he opened the large glass window in the living room, even pushed the screen to one side, and leaned out most of his body. Because he was drunk and couldn't stand on his feet, a slightly stronger wind blew. Just scratch her off.

Dongqing's heart jumped to her throat. She sprinted at a speed of [-] meters and grabbed the shaky Jia Lie when the strong wind blew over.Due to excessive force, Jia Lie, who was pulled back by his clothes, staggered and sat down on the ground.

"What are you doing?" they both yelled at the same time.

Jia Lie rubbed his sore buttocks and tried to get up. Unexpectedly, he was still drunk and couldn't exert any strength, so he fell down again.

"You don't want to die?" Dongqing quickly closed the window. The scene just now stimulated him too much. He panted heavily, his chest heaved violently, and pulled Jia Lie up from the ground angrily.

Jia Lie covered his aching head and wondered why she opened the window just now.Oh, come to think of it, she suddenly remembered her mask that was spit-stained with dirt. Her mind got hot for a moment, so she thought about taking the mask that Dongqing had washed by hand outside to dry, so she opened the window and stretched out her hand to dry the mask. He went out to wave, but Dongqing pulled him so hard that the mask fell off.

"Let me go!" Jia Lie pushed Dongqing away angrily, trying to open the window again and find a mask.

In the eyes of Dongqing, who didn't know why, Jia Lie just couldn't think of committing suicide.

Dongqing pulled Jia Lie tightly and was so angry: "Isn't it just a job? If you have too many debts, you don't have to worry about it. If you have too many lice, you don't have to itch. At the worst, we can just transfer that apartment in the school district, and there will always be someone who wants it."

Jia Lie finally stopped struggling and looked at him blankly. After looking at him, he suddenly laughed and started to cry again.

From beginning to end, the only thing this man thought about was selling the house.

At this time, in Dongqing's eyes, Jia Lie couldn't jump off the building and his mood collapsed.

Jia Lie wiped away his tears with determination in his expression: "Dongqing, do you know why I have to work so hard and make money? Because I don't want her to grow up like me. She has to spend time with her children just to support her family. I don’t even have time. I don’t want her to be like me. In order to gain a foothold in the company and not be replaced by other male colleagues, she has to work overtime every day to do the work that others don’t want to do, and to take advantage of projects that others don’t want to take. Don't be angry just because you are so angry with Party A. I want to work with my partner to cultivate her into a person with outstanding abilities and far-reaching knowledge through my own efforts. In this way, she can control her own destiny in the workplace and not be like me. , being doubly oppressed because of ability and female identity.”

She took a deep breath: "It doesn't matter if we don't succeed, but we can't drag down the next generation. I will say this today. Even if I sell the iron, I will not sell my children's school district housing."

Since Dongqing resigned, Jia Lie mentioned less and less about things in the company to him.

For Jia Lie, she has had enough of those bad things in the company, and she doesn't want to take them home and make her family angry too.

As for Dongqing, he saw her promotions and salary increases in recent years and thought she was doing well, so he rarely interfered. He didn't expect that she had suffered so many grievances in the workplace.He didn't even know that Jia Lie had accumulated so much bitterness in the workplace and at home.

Even if Dongqing really feels that good education cannot be obtained by stacking up school districts and various trainings.But he couldn't and didn't dare tell her at this time.At this moment, he deeply felt that it was not time that defeated marriage and love, but the insatiable desire in human nature.

After being with Jia Lie for so many years, Dongqing has never seen her as hopeless and helpless as she is now.No matter how difficult or painful things were in the past, she always kept saying "there are always more solutions than problems."No matter what the situation, she will be positive and optimistic, fearlessly shouldering responsibilities and burdens.

Sometimes, he felt that her perseverance was more like a man than a man.Because of this, he resigned boldly at the beginning.

Dongqing didn't expect that Jia Lie, who was once so optimistic, would collapse like this.

When Jia Lie had cried enough and was tired, she asked him in a hoarse voice: "When will you stand up again? I really can't hold on anymore."

Dongqing's mouth opened. He blamed himself in pain, but couldn't say a word.

Jia Lie's eyes were full of despair, she closed her eyes, but no tears came down.

Dongqing carried the exhausted Jia Lie onto the sofa.Due to the effects of alcohol and physical and mental exhaustion, Jia Lie fell asleep directly on the sofa.

Dongqing covered her with a quilt, looked up and saw Xiao Donggua standing at the door of the room, looking at him with tears in her eyes.

"Winter melon, mom was drunk just now, that's why she yelled, don't be afraid." Dongqing went over to comfort her.

Little Winter Melon cried so hard that she couldn't breathe: "Dad, I have grown up. I can take care of myself. You go and help mom."

Holly looked at her daughter blankly, and then slowly wiped away her tears for several seconds: "Okay... Dad knows."

Jia Lie slept soundly on the sofa, while Dongqing made dinner for her daughter, while thinking about how to get out of the predicament in front of her.After the child went to kindergarten, he also tried part-time jobs that he could do at home, such as wechat business swiping bills, but in the end he didn't make any money, and he had fewer friends on wechat.

And the resume he sent out half a month ago has not received a reply yet.This year's graduates are the most over the years, but all companies are reducing the number of people and jobs they recruit, and the fierce competition for employment can be imagined.

Can he, who has been out of the workforce for six years, still compete with others?Holly's anxiety was aroused again.He brought the dinner to the table with a sad face and put the vegetables into a bowl for his daughter, but he had no appetite at all, so he turned around and cooked some porridge for Jia Lie to digest.

Jia Lie's cell phone suddenly rang twice. The absent-minded Dongqing didn't respond. Xiao Donggua handed the cell phone to him: "Dad, mom's cell phone rang."

Dongqing wiped her hands, took it, and clicked on it. It was sent by a person named Wendy in English. She said that due to the epidemic, her psychological counseling room has canceled its lease this year and will switch to online video therapy in the future. , asking Jia Lie to contact her on time.

At the same time, Jia Lie was sent a condition analysis and improvement suggestions.It said that she had anxiety symptoms due to the high financial pressure in the workplace and family, and she also had mild irritability. It was suggested that she change jobs and discuss with her partner to change the situation of being alone.

After reading the analysis of Jia Lie's condition, Dongqing was as shocked as when he saw Jia Lie trying to jump off this afternoon. At the same time, he finally understood her behavior today.

One blow after another today made Holly dizzy.He held on to the kitchen door frame for several seconds before slowly looking at Jia Lie on the sofa.After ten years of marriage, he found that he did not understand the woman who had lived with him for ten years.

Over the years, he didn't know how much bitterness she had swallowed alone.Dongqing's eyes were red, and she looked at Jia Lie on the sofa, and her daughter, who had a worried look on her face and was silently holding Jia Lie's hand.At this moment, he seemed to be completely awake. He clenched his fists and told himself that in the face of survival, his self-esteem and face were nothing!His wife is already like this. If he continues to hide at home and eat soft food, is he still a man?
Only when people reach middle age do they realize that the real brave man is one who can do nothing but reconcile with himself.This time, even if he goes up a mountain of swords and into a sea of ​​fire, he can never escape.
