Chapter 162 Aren’t We Broken Up?
It really was a wake-up call for me. All these years I had only been rushing ahead and never thought about myself. I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, she is almost fifty years old.
The son she had protected had grown up, and it was indeed possible for him to practice his skills. Experience was accumulated, and with her watching from behind, he would be fine as long as he didn't make any big mistakes.
After all these years of running around, it is really time for her to take a break and raise her son early so that she can enjoy her old age.
After seeing Sun Huifang off, Dai Qing stretched and picked up the red envelope on the table. It was exactly one thousand yuan. It seemed that she had asked about the market price.
The income increased a little.
After a short rest, Dai Qing started to cook dinner. The New Year's goods had not been eaten yet, so she just had to steam some dumplings. It was simple and convenient. She could add a piece of fruit after the meal to supplement vitamins.
Fortunately, she practiced boxing and mental skills every day, which consumed a lot of energy, so she didn't gain noticeable weight, but her dog Xiao Hei gained weight.
The next day, it was still the early shift. After the machine had run for 24 hours, I took over. As expected, everything went smoothly. I could take a break after work and not be so busy as a top.
During the meal, Sister Ou looked at them mysteriously and whispered, "Listen, that little girl Cusha is at home asking for a divorce."
Everyone was stunned. "What do you mean? Isn't that thing over? Why is it still making a fuss?"
"How can you just let this go? How many men can endure being cuckolded? Not making a scene is already a courtesy."
Sister Ou curled her lips, looked at everyone's gossiping eyes, and puffed out her chest.
"We live close to each other. During the Chinese New Year, they had several arguments. If it weren't for the Chinese New Year holiday, they would have divorced long ago."
"Divorce? I can understand it if I think about it. If someone is found to be cheating on you, no man can swallow this."
"She is a woman who got divorced. If the other one doesn't get divorced, wouldn't that mean everything will be ruined?"
"That's the problem. It's said that a wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as a secret lover... It's true that men like excitement, but they won't marry a woman like this."
Sister Ou nodded repeatedly.
"You are right. That stupid woman was making a big fuss at home, yelling that she wanted a divorce. But from beginning to end, the one who spun the weft never showed up again. She was just playing around, but she was so stupid that she thought she couldn't get divorced."
"So what was the result? Did they get divorced?"
"It will probably be in a few days. When I went to get some water just now, I took a stroll through the gauze. The silly woman didn't go to work and asked for leave again."
"Tsk tsk... This matter has a bad impact on our development."
"Who said it wasn't true? It's so embarrassing."
"So, whether you are a man or a woman, you have to be careful when choosing a marriage partner. Men should not look for a woman who is a playboy, and women should not look for a womanizer."
Sister Ou said, turning to look at Dai Qing, "Little Dai, you are the only one in our group who is not married yet. You must be more careful in the future and not date unreliable men."
Dai Qing sat beside them, listening quietly to their gossip. Seeing Sister Ou looking at her with a smile, she suddenly felt extremely depressed.
How come everything can be linked to her?
"Don't worry, Sister Ou, I have no intention of talking about my friend."
"My elder sister didn't say it now. When we talk about it later, you have to be careful. Find an honest and simple man who knows how to live. Don't just look at the appearance."
Dai Qing: "But can't you find an ugly and disgusting self?"
A piece of gossip made her listen to it from year to year, and her taste was extremely strange.
"Pfft~, Xiao Dai is right. Finding a good-looking one will at least be pleasing to the eyes. You can't find an ugly one just to live with, right?"
"Haha...young people nowadays have different ideas. What do you think of the time when arranged marriages were still in place? Now that free love is advocated, how many people are willing to find someone ugly?"
"Men like pretty girls, and women also like handsome men. Sister Ou, you are out of date."
As everyone laughed and interrupted, Sister Ou's face turned red. She wanted to explain several times but was suppressed every time. She was so angry that she picked up her lunch box and left with a whimper, twisting her butt.
"Oh my God, look how angry she is. Xiao Dai must have poked her lungs."
"That's not great. Sister Ou's husband works in a machinery factory and is an eighth-level clamp master. He has a high salary and good treatment. The only downside is that he doesn't look good. Not only is he short and fat, but he's also dark."
"So, Sister Ou never lets her man pick her up at the factory because she's afraid of being laughed at."
"She deserves it. She wanted to be treated well by others. Now she is dissatisfied with others because they are ugly. It's too late."
Dai Qing: “…”
You already have an ugly man, but you're too embarrassed to bring him out because you think he's ugly, so how can you still have the nerve to give her advice?
What's the psychology?
After the incident during the meal, Dai Qing turned on her computer and continued working.
She and Sister Ou were parking in adjacent spaces, so it was inevitable that they would bump into each other. After being confronted, this person kept pouting, as if someone owed her money, which looked quite funny.
He can't control his mouth and is a busybody. He deserves to be angry.
We are just colleagues, there is no need to get used to her.
The two didn't say a word until the end of the get off work day. Dai Qing packed up her tools and went home directly after get off work.
As soon as she walked out of the factory gate, Mao Yanyan chased after her, "Xiaoqing, can I come find you later?"
Looking at Mao Yanyan's red face, Dai Qing was puzzled, "Didn't you break up with me?"
"No... no, I just said that out of anger." Mao Yanyan lowered her head and pinched the corner of her clothes. "I'll go back to the dormitory to change clothes and then come to find you."
"It's up to you," Mao Yanyan said, she had already let it go.
I went home and took a hot shower. Just as I had combed my hair half dry, Mao Yanyan came with a bag in her hand.
"These are some fried foods I brought from my hometown. They are all made by my mom. I brought some for you to try."
"Thank you," Dai Qing invited her in, poured her a glass of water, and brought her two oranges. "Eat some fruit. We can talk slowly."
Mao Yanyan lowered her head, and when she raised it, her eyes were red, "Xiaoqing, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
"It's okay, I don't care." Dai Qing looked at her and couldn't help frowning, "What's wrong with you?"
"I might have to break up with Yu Dapeng."
Mao Yanyan sniffed.
"I went back to my hometown for a few days during the Chinese New Year and didn't come back until the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. When I came back, I called him on the pager, but he called me ten times before he replied. The first thing he said was to break up with me, saying that he already had a new girlfriend and that we were over."
"He's just a scumbag and not suitable for you."
Dai Qing looked at her sad eyes and felt a little complicated. After beating Yu Dapeng, she no longer felt guilty.
If she didn't have the ability and was blocked by Yu Dapeng, she would be the one who would suffer. Therefore, worrying too much about other people's affairs would bring trouble to herself. Through this incident, she finally understood it.
