see you in spring

Chapter 52 Love and Family [-]

No matter how slow Holly was, she understood what she meant.

He couldn't remember whether she said this at that time, but if she said it now, it meant that she didn't really want to divorce him.

If she was really determined to leave, he knew that she would fight to the death with him for custody of their children.He simply couldn't bear to leave his daughter, let alone the home he built with his own hands and devoted ten years of hard work to.

Now that he knew that she was just as anxious as before at the Civil Affairs Bureau, he couldn't speak clearly. He finally breathed a sigh of relief and slowly put his heart back in his stomach.

After waiting for a while, he finally said with a hint of teasing, "Is this considered love talk?"

"Then tell me, what counts as love words?" Jia Lie was not angry.

Dongqing took a towel and slowly wiped away the sweat on her head and face.Then he said the most loving words he could think of at this time: "I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry? Are these your love words?" After hearing his apology, she pretended not to understand.

"I was too anxious after answering my dad's call just now. I never thought about what you have been through in the past two days. I shouldn't have been angry at you just now."

After he finished speaking, he took several breaths. Dongqing, who hadn't eaten well in the past few days, was so weak that he sat on the edge of the bed. He was sweating profusely from the rush just now, but he didn't dare to take off his hat and clothes, and the windows were open. , a whooshing wind guarantees bad things.

Hearing Dongqing's heavy breathing and thinking of his current physical condition, Jia Lie finally couldn't bear to blame him anymore and his tone softened.

"Okay, okay, I have a short temper. I can say anything when I'm angry, and forget it after I say it. We have agreed that today's matter will be settled after we quarrel, and no one can bring up old scores in the future. In addition, dad's matter I have already hired a nanny. She is a distant relative of Xiao Yang’s family. She has worked as a nurse before and is very agile. I have already paid two months’ salary in advance. The day after tomorrow, my father will be discharged from the hospital and I will start serving him at home.”

"Xiao Yang said that the second aunt lives not far from dad. She cooks three meals a day and does hygiene. She doesn't live at home. She comes at 07:30 in the morning and leaves at [-] in the evening. If anything happens, dad can call her right away. She can be there in a few minutes. I chatted with this aunt for a few words on WeChat. Although I don’t understand her, she is somewhat related to her, so I feel relieved.” Jia Lie paused and added.

Dongqing's mouth was dry, but thinking back, Jia Lie had actually done everything except not telling him right away.Asking her sister and brother-in-law to take care of her, and then asking someone to take care of the old man, did not worry him at all.

Even if she told him the matter immediately, he couldn't go back or even leave the door of his room. So what could he do if he knew about it? In the end, it was nothing more than this arrangement.

At this time, Dongqing felt that she had gone too far by blaming Jia Lie and calling her disgusting things.

"Thank you." He swallowed hard and held back two words.

"You should thank my sister and Xiao Yang. I'll talk remotely. They didn't have a good New Year's Eve dinner, so they ran to the hospital and the police station. They also found a babysitter."

Dongqing felt grateful and kept nodding, "Yes, I have to thank them properly. What I just said to you was a bit too much, I..."

"Okay, stop nagging. I've already said it's over, but you keep saying it over and over again. Does it make sense?" Jia Lie sometimes couldn't stand Dongqing's grinding spirit.

It had to be said that his temperament of reviewing reviews was an advantage when it came to making products and tutoring his children's homework, but when it came to communicating with her, she found it a headache.

In order to make Dongqing shut up quickly, Jia Lie asked incessantly: "Have you eaten the lunch I made for you? Did you use the new thermometer to measure your temperature?"

"No." Holly replied honestly.

"Why don't you hurry up and take a food test?"

Dongqing responded, hesitated for a few seconds, and asked with some worry: "Starting from this month, I have to pay off the mortgage for the new house, and now my dad's nursing fee is added to it. Can you...can you handle it?"

"You can't help me if I can't handle it. What can I do? Just resist." Jia Lie said this completely subconsciously, because she had said this often before.

In the past, Dongqing would feel aggrieved and annoyed after hearing such words.But at this time, he just felt that Jia Lie was right. He couldn't help the family, nor could he help his father. He was already 35, and he even had to rely on his father's escort fees. When my wife comes out, she is really a useless person.

Holly smiled bitterly, feeling ashamed but also thankful that his wife could still resist.If Jia Lie couldn't bear it, he would have to watch his father, who had difficulty walking, live a difficult life.

He had never admitted that he was a freeloader before. In order to take it for granted, he had always used his own set of theories to convince himself: running a home is like running a company. Everyone must perform their own duties, and those in the sales department People cannot say that they support the people in the logistics department and the production department, because without the people in the logistics and production departments, it is impossible for the sales department to do business.

During these years of working as a househusband, he relied on a theory to hypnotize himself during many sleepless nights.But now, faced with real difficulties, his theory was vulnerable.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that he was indeed a soft-boiled person.

Seeing that Dongqing didn't speak, Jia Lie thought belatedly whether the words he just said had hurt him again.Since he lost his source of income, she always pays attention to his emotions when she speaks and does things, for fear that any casual joke will hurt him.She was already very tired at the company and didn't want to be so cautious when she returned home. This was why she became increasingly dissatisfied with him.

"Okay, you can rest. I'll go back and see the child first." Jia Lie knew that he must have felt a knot in his heart because of what she just said, but she didn't intend to coax him and hung up the phone directly. With so many things going on today, she She's not happy either. It's thankless to pay and do her best. Who's going to comfort her?
Dongqing was holding the phone. His emotions were too intense just now, and the clothes inside were soaked with sweat. Plus, he hadn't eaten for a day, and his hands were shaking uncontrollably.

He suddenly felt that if he really got infected with prostitutes, it would no longer be a big deal, because in this family, he was just a freeloader. He would be a lot less, but if he was more, Jia Lie would be better. Raise one.

His decadent mood reached its peak. Maybe it was because the clothes inside were soaked, but he sneezed hard.

I sniffed and felt really uncomfortable.He stood up with difficulty holding on to the bed, closed the window, took a change of dry clothes, and changed out of the wet clothes he was wearing.

After changing clothes, he touched his pocket and found a round hard object inside. He reached in and took it out, and found a large round wooden button in the pocket with a thick red rope on it.

This is a homemade finger "hula hoop" he gave her in order to explain the inertia of rotation to Little Winter Melon.

He still remembered Xiao Donggua’s surprised expression when he demonstrated this simple toy to his children.A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, remembering that Xiao Donggua was holding this toy and praising him with admiration: "My dad can do anything. My dad is the best dad in the world."

Although he has disappointed his wife and father, he is still the best father in the hearts of his children.

Even if no one needs him anymore, his children still need him.

Thinking of her children, Dongqing, who had given up on herself, slowly regained her confidence.He can no longer disappoint the child.

He held the wooden button tightly in his hand and told himself that he could no longer be weak like this. He wanted to get better and act like a father.

Dongqing glanced at the cold rice and heard the door closing in the living room. He picked up the rice, slowly opened the door and walked out.A person is like iron rice or steel. He must eat his fill quickly to have strength and immunity.Only with immunity can we get better sooner.Only when you get better can you start looking for a job.

He can't continue to escape. He is a man, and now it is time to shoulder his responsibilities.

In the room, Jia Lie heard the sound of the microwave oven running outside. She was a little confused, but she didn't want to worry about it anymore. She had been nervous all day since morning, and now she just wanted to lie down, close her eyes and have a good rest.

After eating, Dongqing suddenly felt stronger and energetic.He quickly opened the recruitment page on his mobile phone and submitted his resume to all the electrical engineer-related positions in Jincheng. Now that he was in China, he knew he would not receive a reply so quickly, but at least he took the first step.

After submitting his resume, Dongqing felt refreshed, whether it was because he had eaten or was sweating profusely just now, his head was no longer dizzy, and his chest was no longer tight. The most important thing was that he felt that his forehead was no longer tight. hot.

Thinking of Jia Lie asking him to take his temperature, Dongqing picked up the new thermometer, adjusted his attitude, and slowly put it in his armpit.

One minute later, when he took out the thermometer, the display clearly showed: 1 degrees Celsius.

Dongqing rubbed her eyes, a little unbelievable.He hurriedly tested it again, and this time he finally believed it.

He held back the ecstasy in his heart and dialed Jia Lie's number.

Jia Lie was in a daze when she was woken up by the ringing. She glanced at Dongqing's number and frowned.

She thought he was still struggling with what happened just now, so she called and continued to argue with her.Unexpectedly, before she could speak, Dongqing shouted excitedly: "My fever has gone away, I really have gone away!"

"What?" Jia Lie lost all sleep in an instant and quickly sat up from the bed.

"I've measured it several times, and it's all 36 degrees five. I'm fine!" Holly on the other end was as excited as a fool, and her voice was hoarse from the surprise.

"That's great, God bless you." Jia Lie's eyes turned red, and he hugged the half-asleep little winter melon next to him: "Daughter, tomorrow, we can have breakfast with daddy."

Xiao Donggua rubbed her sleepy eyes: "But you said the same thing yesterday."

Jia Lie kissed her hard: "Mom, I promise, this time it will be true."

Jia Lie wanted to go out to see Dongqing, but he refused.To be on the safe side, he still had to finish today and take another test tomorrow to make sure everything was fine before contacting his wife and daughter.

Although the first day of the new year went by like a roller coaster, there was good news in the end.And this news was really the best news Jia Lie had heard these days.

Therefore, she had to tell her two good sisters quickly.
