In her previous life, Zhong Qiao was the modern Wang Baochuan, rejecting wealth and luxury to elope with a scumbag. She savored their lean meals and gnawed on wild vegetables, thinking it was sweet...
Chapter 05: Divorce, the son is you and the daughter is me!
A fire of rage burned from the bottom of her heart, as if it was going to burn her to ashes.
Ten years, this is the lover she has been married to for ten years!
If she hadn't unexpectedly found out that she was given to Mr. Li as a gift and was strangled to death, she would still have had a glimmer of hope for him.
At the very least, Zhong Qiao always felt that there was a little love between them, and even if they divorced, it would be decent. But when the hands used for writing and drawing pinched her neck, she finally woke up.
Perhaps for this man, from the very beginning, there was no love, only exploitation.
See clearly.
She should also write a new ending for herself.
If Zhong Qiao remembers correctly, Xu Shaojun should still be preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination during this period of time.
In this era, most people do not attach importance to reading.
Excluding the wealthy families in Suzhou, most ordinary families send their children to school. If they can go, they will go. If not, they just let their children go.
Xu Shaojun was born in the countryside and is the youngest child in the family. He has an idle brother and sister.
Among the three, Xu Lili, because she was a girl, never attended school and had to go to work in a factory to supplement the family income. Her brother Xu Xiucheng only studied in the fourth grade and often skipped classes. He was eventually persuaded to drop out of school and was still relying on his parents at the age of 28.
Xu Shaojun is a famous college student in their village, and Zhou Ping worships him like a Buddha.
It was precisely because he was surrounded by so many people, and because he was good-looking and had the image of being born in a poor family, that countless innocent female students in the university threw themselves at him one after another. Although Xu Shaojun refused on the surface, he actually accepted all these benefits!
He was conceited about his talent and talked about romance all the time. He looked down on the peasants in the village. Later, he even looked down on her who was taking care of the children at home.
Zhong Qiao twitched the corner of his mouth.
That's so funny.
Before she broke off relations with her family, she was also a student at a prestigious university with top grades.
It is not easy to train a college student in this era, especially for a girl, the value of this is self-evident.
Moreover, her family is well off.
Before getting married, we lived in the most prosperous area in the center of Hong Kong. We had a dedicated driver to pick us up whenever we went out. In 1976, when even an egg was precious, we could eat meat every meal.
But just for a selfish man like Xu Shaojun, she chose to give up her studies and this kind of life, and let down those relatives and friends who treated her sincerely.
He glanced at the porridge with pickles on the table.
Zhong Qiao felt mixed emotions.
Wasn't it true that I was possessed by a ghost at the beginning?
Xu Shaojun puffed out his cheeks and sat down on the edge of the bed, ready to hold her hand.
She spoke weakly: "Qiao Qiao..."
Qiao Qiao is Zhong Qiao's nickname, and only very close family members can call her that.
Once upon a time, when Xu Shaojun first called her that, Zhong Qiao felt really happy! But now, she found it disgusting!
This heartless scumbag, is he worthy of it?
Zhong Qiao subconsciously showed a look of disgust, and pulled his hand back as if he was afraid of getting it stained with dirt. He did not forget to wipe it on the quilt, rubbing the back of his hand red, and quickly hid in the quilt.
Xu Shaojun came up empty-handed and froze for a moment, then looked at Zhong Qiao in surprise again.
Lying on the hospital bed, Zhong Qiao closed his eyes, leaning against the white wall. His lips were dry and chapped, with several bloody marks on them. His hair was messy and his eye sockets were sunken. He hadn't showered or washed his hair in the past three days. In addition, he had just given birth to a child, so he had a mixed smell of blood and sour smell on his body, which made him frown.
Maybe it was his illusion...
Zhong Qiao loved him so much that she even cut off ties with her family.
In such a big city, a woman who married far away, has no one to rely on, has no money, and is at the mercy of his family, how could she possibly hate him?
Xu Shaojun put these thoughts aside, rubbing his hands, acting very pitiful, and said awkwardly: "Qiao Qiao, I'm sorry, it's my fault that I'm useless and made you suffer. I...I couldn't borrow the money."
"But it doesn't matter. It's for you!" Xu Shaojun's eyes were determined. "Just focus on taking care of yourself. I'll figure out the money! If it doesn't work out, I'll go work at the kiln for a few days and I'll be able to get the money together soon."
"Kiln factory?"
Xu Lili immediately screamed exaggeratedly, angrily saying, "Second brother, you are a scholar, your hands are for writing and painting! How can you work in a kiln factory?! The kiln factory is full of low-class people, they are all inferior people! Second brother, how can you do the same work as them?!"
When Zhou Ping heard that her college student son was going to the kiln factory just for Zhong Qiao, she immediately fell ill.
But she naturally wouldn't blame Xu Shaojun. She just looked at Zhong Qiao and said sarcastically, "If you ask me, this confinement period is completely unnecessary. Let's just pack up and leave! The hospital is exaggerating, it's just to charge more money!"
"Look, when I gave birth to you guys, I was still working in the fields! After giving birth, I helped your dad with laundry and cooking, and I was still working in the fields. Nothing happened to me, I was still fine. Sigh, you young people are just too pretentious!"
"Mom, stop talking."
Xu Shaojun created a loving image for his wife in front of others and pushed all the blame onto Zhong Qiao. His goal was achieved, and he couldn't help but continue to say bitterly: "Who made me a loser? For Qiao Qiao, I have to do it no matter what."
"By the way, Qiao Qiao, your parents must have given you quite a bit of money back then. Why don't you just take it out first and use it as a cushion? I've found a job at a kiln factory these days, so I'll work there for a few days and then make it up to you. You can't stay in the hospital forever."
Zhong Qiao couldn't help but sneer from between his teeth.
She knew Xu Shaojun would be so shameless!
At first, she was determined to marry Xu Shaojun, and her family disagreed. Later, unable to bear her persistence, her father did consider giving her some money.
However, she was young and naive at that time, and she didn't know how high the sky was or how deep the earth was. She thought that love could overcome all difficulties. She had a quarrel with her father over a few words, and then, in order to prove herself, she ran away from home without asking for a penny.
The Xu family thought that she must have hidden a lot of money. All the big and small items in the house, from furniture and decoration to water, electricity and toothpaste, were paid for by Zhong Qiao.
She spent a whole year like a fool, and now the Xu family is still trying every possible way to get her money.
Every time he would pretend to be pitiful and act miserable, and then the whole family would sing the same tune, and then force Zhong Qiao to offer to pay for it himself.
This time, she deliberately didn't say anything, but she couldn't stand someone being so shameless!
Zhong Qiao looked straight at him, his eyes full of mockery. After a while, he said something coldly.
"You are indeed trash."
Everyone in the Xu family was stunned.
Xu Lili widened her eyes, scratched her ears, and almost suspected that she had heard it wrong.
Zhong Qiao has been to college and has always had a very good temper. Even if she and her mother deliberately find fault and try their best to make trouble, Zhong Qiao just stays silent and cleans up the mess behind them, and nothing can be done about it.
How dare she call my second brother a waste?
The sun rises from the west?
Xu Shaojun smiled awkwardly and said, "Qiao Qiao, I know you're angry. When you were giving birth, didn't I go out to borrow money? That's why I couldn't be with you. Can you please stop being angry? I have my own difficulties..."
Until now, this man is still lying to her, and lying seems to have become an essential skill that he can blurt out.
As all the hatred from the previous life flooded into my mind, mixed with these disgusting lies.
Zhong Qiao's stomach was churning, and finally he could no longer bear it. He picked up the bowl on the table and smashed it on Xu Shaojun's forehead with lightning speed.
This time, she didn't hold back her strength, she really wanted to smash his head with the bowl!
The bowl hit Xu Shaojun's forehead in a straight line, making a popping sound, and shattered directly on his face.
The entire ward suddenly became quiet.
Blood mixed with porridge flowed down the high bridge of his nose.
Xu Shaojun's collar was stained with pickles. The smile on his lips froze and turned into shock. After a while, he felt a wet and hot feeling on his forehead.
He raised his hand and wiped it, his hand was covered in blood.
It's his blood.
"Qiao Qiao...you."
Xu Shaojun looked at his hands covered in blood, raised his head, and felt like there was something stuck in his throat.
Because from his perspective, Zhong Qiao, who used to have a gentle personality, was leaning on the hospital bed, but now his eyes were cold, staring at him like a complete stranger.
This icy cold look made his heart skip a beat.
For some reason, he suddenly felt like something was missing from his heart.
Blood flowed down his forehead into Xu Shaojun's eyes.
He heard Zhong Qiao's cold and unquestionable voice.
"Divorce, the daughter is mine and the son is yours."
