The other party looked at her with an expression that indicated that either there was something wrong with her or her husband was not good enough, which made Xia Zhichu feel somewhat embarrassed.
When she was getting divorced from Shen Liang, only a few people knew about it. In addition, Xia Zhichu rarely interacted with her classmates after getting married, so it was normal that Liu Jiajia didn't know her situation.
Xia Zhichu didn't want to continue this topic, so she quickly avoided it and said, "Let's not talk about this. You're so pregnant, why are you going out alone? Where's your husband?"
Not long after she got married, news came that Liu Jiajia had also had a flash marriage. It was said that her husband was a rich man who was several years older than her.
Xia Zhichu didn't like to ask about other people's private affairs, but he felt that Liu Jiajia was pregnant and it was too unsafe for her to come to such a crowded place alone.
Then I heard Liu Jiajia sigh deeply, "My husband is busy with work and has no time to accompany me. My mother-in-law doesn't want to come and take care of the children, so I sent Dabao to kindergarten. Only then can I come here to buy things."
"Jia Jia, you haven't been working since you got married?"
Xia Zhichu was somewhat surprised when he learned about Liu Jiajia's situation.
Although Liu Jiajia and she had a different major, they worked together in the student union and had a lot of contact.
Liu Jiajia is also a very outstanding girl. She majored in accounting and has won many scholarships. In addition, she is good-looking, so many boys pursue her.
As a result, after she got married, she chose to be a full-time housewife and raised her children alone.
Come to think of it, she is still relatively lucky.
At least there are no children, and there will be no ties after divorce.
"No, I'm completely out of touch with society. Now if I'm asked to go to work, I'll become socially anxious." Liu Jiajia said helplessly.
Xia Zhichu looked at his old classmate. He used to be very thin, but now he has gained a lot of weight. In addition, he used to wear makeup, but now he is bare-faced and his skin is dark yellow with spots.
The key is that her hairline is much higher.
After just three years, Liu Jiajia's figure had completely changed, and she had become the yellow-faced woman they were most afraid of becoming.
Xia Zhichu wanted to say something, but then thought of her own failed marriage and felt that she couldn't help her in any way. She could only accompany her shopping and carry things behind her.
After buying enough things, Xia Zhichu suggested, "Jia Jia, you have so many things, you should ask your husband to come and help. It's so tiring and it's not good for the child."
"No need. He doesn't like to be disturbed while he's working. If I call him now, he'll just think I'm being pretentious."
"But you're pregnant with his child!"
Xia Zhichu felt a little sympathetic to his old classmate. Aren't people said to be queens after getting pregnant? Why did she become a maid in Liu Jiajia's case?
"Hey, I went through this with my first child too. I'm used to it."
After she finished speaking, she smiled at Xia Zhichu and said, "Thank you for shopping with me. My daughter Dabao is almost out of school, so I have to go home and put her things away before rushing over to pick her up."
Xia Zhichu nodded, but out of concern, he still helped Liu Jiajia carry her things to the roadside. After stopping a taxi and helping her get in, he waved to her and left.
"Zhichu, come to my house when you have time. My phone number has never changed." Liu Jiajia said as the taxi passed by Xia Zhichu.
Xia Zhichu smiled at her and said, "Okay, we'll contact each other again."
She went back to the mall and bought a few clothes, a bag, and two pairs of high heels.
At this time, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.
Xia Zhichu was worried about Liu Jiajia, so he called her to make sure she had returned home safely.
"Zhichu, thank you for your concern. It's okay. I've been living like this alone for so many years." Liu Jiajia was obviously walking, and her voice was slightly breathless.
"Then you should be careful. After all, you are about to give birth, so you should take better care of yourself."
"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. My baby is calling me."
Before Xia Zhichu could say anything, the other party hung up the phone in a hurry.
Listening to the beeping sound coming from the microphone, Xia Zhichu sighed deeply.
Only those who have experienced it can understand the hardships of being a full-time housewife.
Others think that being a full-time housewife is very comfortable. They just do housework at home and have money to spend without having to go to work. But they don’t know that asking for money for a long time will only make people dislike them.
Furthermore, it is not easy to do the same work over and over again every day. Not only do your hands become rough, your skin deteriorates from being busy in the kitchen all day, but you also have to endure your family's dislike of the food.
She has a hard life alone, and Liu Jiajia is pregnant. Not only does she have to take care of the child, but she also has to do housework. She must be busy as a top all day and has no time to take care of herself.
Xia Zhichu was a little worried about Liu Jiajia's future, fearing that she would also embark on his path.
What will happen to the two children then?
Xia Zhichu felt that he should find some time to talk to Liu Jiajia.
No matter what the future holds, you must plan for yourself first.
After returning home from the mall, Xia Zhichu put away his things and went downstairs to buy groceries. He said that he would cook for Si Mochen himself tonight and the meal must be sumptuous.
After buying the vegetables, she started preparing the meal and was busy until after seven o'clock.
Coincidentally, Si Mochen also came back.
As soon as he stepped into the house, he smelled the aroma of food. He looked towards the kitchen and saw Xia Zhichu cleaning the stove.
"Mochen, you're back. Wash your hands and you can eat."
Si Mochen changed into slippers, washed his hands and sat at the dining table. Xia Zhichu brought out the soup and sat down opposite him.
"Thanks to your help, I was able to successfully join Peak Group!" Xia Zhichu was in a good mood. He had just bought a bottle of red wine while buying groceries, poured two glasses, and handed one to Si Mochen. "Let's toast to celebrate my future income."
Seeing her so happy, Si Mochen raised his glass and clinked it with hers. "This is all because of your excellence. No need to thank me."
"No, I was about to give up. It was you who gave me the confidence. I have to thank you."
After Xia Zhichu clinked glasses, he raised his head and started to drink.
At this moment, Si Mochen suddenly remembered something and grabbed her hand. "You are on your period, so drinking is not suitable."
Xia Zhichu looked at him stupidly, and then her face turned red.
Si Mochen realized his abruptness and let go of her hand awkwardly.
"We share a toilet and I accidentally saw it." He explained, and the tips of his ears began to feel hot.
Xia Zhichu pursed her lips, remembering that the toilet bucket at home had no lid. She didn't cover it when she changed it, so it was normal for Si Mochen to see it when he went in.
Also, when she got up in the morning to wash clothes, she found a towel inexplicably covering the basket. At first she thought it had fallen there accidentally, but now when she saw Si Mochen, she suddenly realized it.
The man must have gone in to take a shower and saw her small clothes, and felt a little uncomfortable, so he covered them with a towel.
She lived alone before and didn't think too much about it. Now there is one more person in the house, and she didn't want to change. She didn't expect to encounter such embarrassing things one after another.
