Chapter 1: An unmarried woman with a child goes on a blind date
"Chen Zhiqing, you're unmarried with a child, and you're still going on a blind date... That's too unkind. What do you think of me, Zhao Changjiang? A rag picker?"
When Zhao Changjiang gets anxious, his voice becomes loud and he doesn't control his words.
Shen Sisi clenched her fists in silence, her eyes instantly turning red. Feeling the soft little treasure constantly shrinking into her arms, she pinched her palms and endured it.
She has encountered similar scenes countless times in the past few days.
There were even more vicious insults, calling her a slut and a worthless piece of trash in public.
I thought I was immune to it a long time ago, but it still bothers me.
Yes, she is indeed not married and does have a child, but she is still a virgin, she is not a slut!!!
She squeezed the cup hard to calm herself down: "Didn't the matchmaker tell you about my situation before coming?"
Zhao Changjiang suddenly choked, thinking of the matchmaker's hesitant look, as if he had something to say at that time.
But when he saw the photo of Shen Sisi, he liked her so much, like she was a star in a magazine, that he ran away before he could finish his words.
In order to see her, he bought a new Dacron shirt, ordered a table full of delicious food, and spent half a month's salary.
Don’t say it, the real person is more beautiful than the photo!
She has almond eyes, rosy cheeks, fair skin, and a charming smile. As for her figure... she has thin arms and legs, but the right curves are right where they should be, and it's obvious that she could give birth to a son.
His soul was hooked, and he even thought of what to name their son... Who knew, he would be a slut!
She wasn't even married and had a child, yet she still dared to bring him along for a blind date, fearing that others wouldn't know about her "glorious deeds" in the countryside.
He was so embarrassed!
Seeing him distracted, Shen Sisi gnashed her teeth in anger: "Since you knew the situation and came to the appointment, why did you humiliate me in public?"
Her voice is soft, yet resilient. Even when she is angry, she speaks neither too fast nor too slow, and her voice is sonorous and powerful, going straight to the heart.
Zhao Changjiang's anger was half extinguished. Looking at this angry face, his heart softened inexplicably.
"I, I am satisfied with you. I can be generous and not mind your past, but..."
He slowly looked at the little burden in her arms. She was pale, thin, and sickly. It was heartbreaking to see her. "But we can't keep this kid..."
If she can't accommodate her Niuniu, then there's nothing to talk about.
Shen Sisi glanced at this ordinary-looking, even somewhat ugly man, and with the last bit of decency, she stood up neatly and decisively: "You like me, but I don't like you. I won't bother with you today. You and I don't have to see each other again!"
Zhao Changjiang looked at her figure, his mind still not fully grasping what was going on. What the hell? A slut actually looked down on him?
Wouldn’t that mean that half a month’s salary would have been wasted?
"Um...wait!" Zhao Changjiang stepped forward and stopped Shen Sisi and her daughter: "Pay for the meal."
Shen Sisi raised her eyebrows and looked back at the table full of dishes: braised pork, pork stewed with vermicelli, stir-fried pork... all of them were hard dishes. This table was not cheap.
She laughed in anger: "Comrade Zhao, you ordered this dish. I didn't order it, and I didn't even touch it. Why do you want me to pay?"
"That's because I wanted to see you, so I..." Zhao Changjiang said unreasonably. Anyway, the blind date was off, so he couldn't lose both his money and his girlfriend!
The people around him looked at him like he was watching a show. His face was burning with anger and he said angrily, "If you don't give it to me, then come home with me and get married."
"No, you're not sick, are you? Go to the hospital and check your brain." Shen Sisi rolled her eyes at him.
She has met many top-notch blind dates these days, but this is the first time she has met a stingy man like Zhao Changjiang, which has refreshed her perception.
Seeing her take a step forward, Zhao Changjiang chased after her.
"No, why don't you like me? I'm Zhao Changjiang, a security guard in the printing factory's security department. I earn thirty yuan a month, have a city hukou, and am the only son in my family. You're an unmarried educated youth who's had promiscuous relationships and even had a bastard child, but I don't even despise you..."
Shen Sisi's head buzzed. She pressed Niu Niu's ear with one hand and grabbed the teacup with the other hand and poured it at him.
"That's enough!" Shen Sisi turned around, her almond-shaped eyes bloodshot and glaring at him: "Don't go too far in front of the children!"
Her face flushed red, like a little wild cat protecting its cubs, with its claws bared and looking extremely ferocious.
You can say anything about her, but you can't say anything about her Niuniu!
A mother is strong. As a "mother", no matter whether she is her biological child or not, she will try her best to protect Niu Niu and not let her suffer any grievances. She will not tolerate anyone labeling her child as a bastard!
Zhao Changjiang's face turned red, and the newly bought Dacron on his body was covered with yellow stains of tea and kept emitting white steam.
It’s ruined, and the new clothes are ruined too!
He gritted his teeth in pain, his face completely torn: "You dare to splash me... Do you know how expensive my clothes are? If you don't compensate me today, I will never let you go!"
Compared to his anger, Shen Sisi seemed too calm, but her trembling fingers still revealed her anger.
"Everyone saw it. You were the one spewing filth first, and you even cursed my daughter. Didn't you ask for a beating? I didn't hit you. I just wanted you to calm down. Just be happy! Compensation? What a dream!"
Everyone saw that Chen Sisi was neither humble nor arrogant, and did not look like a girl in her early twenties at all. It seemed as if she had already experienced many ups and downs, and she was so strong that it made people feel distressed.
In the early 1980s, having a child out of wedlock might result in being convicted of hooliganism.
Something serious must have happened to this girl, for her to give birth to a child out of wedlock.
Or maybe, during her time as an educated youth in the countryside, she married a country bumpkin, but they didn't get a marriage certificate. Now many educated youth have returned to the city, and she also wants to take her child back to the city.
In short, she must be a miserable girl...
Shen Sisi noticed that everyone looked at her with sympathy, and she probably guessed that everyone had misunderstood.
In fact, she is not as pitiful as everyone thinks. It's just that she has signed an agreement on this matter and she cannot reveal a word to outsiders. She can only swallow her anger.
"The mother and daughter are so pitiful, and the baby is so young and sick. You are a grown man, so don't pester them." An enthusiastic aunt began to persuade.
Zhao Changjiang pointed at his clothes and said, "You are so kind, so compensate her for it!"
The aunt looked at the Dacron and fell silent.
"Mr. Zhao, if you have anything to say, come to me, don't scare others." Shen Sisi said.
"Okay, I'll go after you!" Zhao Changjiang saw the stern face and was furious. "You second-hand slut, how dare you turn your back on me? If you don't pay me thirty yuan today, you can't leave!"
"Thirty? You're blackmailing me. Why don't you just rob me?" Shen Sisi finally saw how shameless he was.
Thirty yuan is almost as much as Mr. Zhao’s monthly salary.
Not to mention that she really didn't have thirty yuan in her pocket. Even if she did, she had to use it to buy medicine for Niuniu's medical treatment. How could she possibly give it to a scoundrel?
Seeing that she couldn't come up with the money, Zhao Changjiang reached out and grabbed her wrist: "No money? Either go to the police station or come home with me, your choice..."
He twisted Shen Sisi's wrist and walked towards the door forcefully.
During the struggle, Niu Niu burst into tears and started coughing violently, clinging to her mother's neck like a frightened deer.
This uncle is so scary, he wants to eat my mom!
what to do……
Shen Sisi's ears were filled with Niu Niu's cries. She struggled hard while holding her with one hand, and she had almost no power to resist.
Just as he was about to be dragged away by Zhao Changjiang, a hand with distinct joints and bulging veins reached out from behind the curtain and grabbed Zhao Changjiang's "pig's hoof".
Shen Sisi looked at the hand. It was broad and slender but slightly rough. There was a scary scar on the protruding wrist bone... It seemed familiar. Further up, there was a piece of army green sleeve.
Before he could see clearly, a tall and imposing shadow came in through the curtain.
