Chapter 90 Chapter 90 The sandy watermelons in the Northwest are so sweet...
Xu Jiaxi frowned, "Can you please speak properly? What's this about adultery?"
Cheng Yu said coldly: "I have no father, no mother, no education, and I don't know what it means to speak properly."
As soon as these words came out,
He himself was stunned - it seemed very much like Lizhi's style?
At this moment, Xu Jiaxi was upset by Cheng Yu's impatient, straightforward, and even heartless words.
Xu Jiaxi has never taken care of a child.
Not long after He Wanqian was born, Xu Jiaxi realized that she did not love the child at all and she hated He Wanqian from the bottom of her heart.
Xu Jiaxi was often frightened by his own vicious thoughts and simply kept his distance from He Wanqian.
She really couldn't give her child any maternal love at all.
So they hired a nanny, who took care of He Wanqian most of the time, and He Jingdong took care of her a few times.
Xu Jiaxi never took care of He Wanqian and was never close to her.
So until now, Xu Jiaxi suddenly had a subtle feeling that "raising a child is really annoying, but because the child is my own, I have to endure it and talk to him properly."
Xu Jiaxi took a deep breath, "Cheng Yu, can we all calm down?"
Cheng Yu said nothing, took a piece of watermelon and started eating.
You know what, this watermelon is really delicious.
Xu Jiaxi sighed and walked to the chair next to Cheng Yu and sat down. Firstly, she was indeed thirsty and hungry, and secondly, seeing Cheng Yu eating so happily, she also felt a little greedy, so she took a piece of watermelon and started eating.
The two of them ate back and forth and soon finished the plate of watermelon.
Cheng Yu took out a handkerchief from his pocket and was about to wipe his hands.
After hesitating for a moment, he handed the handkerchief to Xu Jiaxi.
Xu Jiaxi was also stunned.
This is still...
This was the first time Cheng Yu took the initiative to show his affection to her.
But she hesitated for just a moment.
Cheng Yu took back the handkerchief with a cold face.
Xu Jiaxi quickly waved his claws and snatched the handkerchief from Cheng Yu's hand, then slowly wiped his hands with the handkerchief.
Cheng Yu: …
After wiping her hands, Xu Jiaxi returned the handkerchief to Cheng Yu and said, "This matter has to start from the beginning."
Cheng Yu stared at the handkerchief she stuffed back into his pocket.
After hesitating for a moment, he took it and started wiping his hands.
Xu Jiaxi talked about the past, "... He Jingdong's mother was the nanny who took care of me when I was young. My parents were busy with work when I was young, so I have very few memories of them. Aunt He was the only one in my childhood. He Jingdong is Aunt He's son."
Cheng Yu glanced at Xu Jiaxi.
In fact, Su Tianli had already briefly told the recovery process over the phone.
But, after hearing Xu Jiaxi say it herself,
It seems that the meaning is different.
"In my young heart, Aunt He was my mother. She was inseparable from me. She knew all my preferences and was very concerned about my health. She would cry when I did not do well on the exams... She was the most gentle mother in the world."
“She was really nice to me.”
"The year I was admitted to university, she accompanied me to register at school. But we had a car accident on the way, and she used her life to protect me."
"To be honest, I was very sad when Aunt He passed away. I knew that she was the only person in the world who loved me unconditionally."
As he spoke, Xu Jiaxi let out a long sigh.
"After Aunt He died, the person I felt most sorry for was He Jingdong."
"He is two years older than me, and he was born posthumously! His grandmother was afraid that Aunt He would eat too much and waste the He family's rice. She was also afraid that Aunt He was too young to stay a widow and bring shame to the He family, so she drove Aunt He away."
"When Aunt He was still alive, she often told me that she had a son who was only two years older than me..."
"So when He Jingdong asked to be my pen pal after he had taken care of Aunt He's funeral, I agreed."
"I desperately need someone who can always be with me to remember Aunt He."
Xu Jiaxi probably also recalled the youthful days when she and He Jingdong exchanged letters.
"He Jingdong is a completely different person in his letters and in real life."
"In his letters, he is soft and delicate, and I have a lot in common with him. In reality, he is a dull and boring person..."
Hearing this, Cheng Yu looked at Xu Jiaxi with compassion in his eyes.
——When Xu Jiaxi talked about the time when she corresponded with "He Jingdong", her eyes were full of tenderness. When she talked about He Jingdong being dull and boring in real life, she looked helpless...
I'm afraid she has never thought that the person she is communicating with is a woman with a vicious heart who is deliberately plotting against her!
However, at that time, Xu Jiaxi was a very insecure 17-year-old girl.
She was born into a wealthy family and had always been pampered, so she had never experienced such vicious human nature;
Moreover, she was grateful for Aunt He's upbringing, and she also felt guilty towards He Jingdong...
Of course she wouldn't think of He Jingdong as a bad person.
Xu Jiaxi continued: "He Jingdong and I kept in correspondence for about three years, and we established a romantic relationship. The year I graduated from university, I decided to marry him."
“But my parents disagreed.”
"In fact, they are quite open-minded and did not look down on He Jingdong for being a nanny's child. They just didn't want me to be too far away from home...but I insisted on doing it my own way."
As he spoke, Xu Jiaxi fell into reminiscence, "That year the school was on holiday for the busy farming season, and I had nothing to do, so I wanted to give He Jingdong a surprise. So I went to his school without saying hello, and then -"
"Then I saw that He Jingdong and a young woman were...being too intimate."
"That woman is Cheng Xi."
"I was very angry at the time and went straight up to He Jingdong to question him, asking why he was having an affair with another woman when he already had a girlfriend like me."
"What I never expected was that He Jingdong chose to let his senior brother Jiang Yao take care of me without a second thought. And He Jingdong took Cheng Xi away by himself."
At this point, Xu Jiaxi suddenly looked up at Cheng Yu, "Remember when multiple departments jointly enforced the law at the Guangzhou Dadadi Night Market that day, you just took Xiao Su away..."
"My first reaction was - see, I will never be the one who is favored and firmly chosen."
Xu Jiaxi's eyes were red, but she said with a smile.
I don’t know if she was mocking herself and that’s why she was laughing so helplessly.
Cheng Yu hesitated for a moment and said seriously: "Even if I come again, I will still take the lychees away."
Xu Jiaxi was startled, then smiled, "I don't mean to blame you or Lizhi."
"Even though you are my son, there is an unbridgeable gap between us."
"Besides, I was resenting you at that time. Even if you wanted to take me away, I would ignore you and even scold you."
"Cheng Yu, I'm not the one who will accompany you until the end of your life. You didn't choose me, it's normal, I understand." Xu Jiaxi said softly.
However, she was in a daze, shrouded in sadness.
Cheng Yu was surprised by what Xu Jiaxi said and her emotions.
He opened his mouth, wanting to explain.
Xu Jiaxi rushed to say: "Okay, stop interrupting, let's continue."
But as soon as he finished saying this——
Xu Jiaxi fell into a long silence again.
It was so long that Cheng Yu was somewhat surprised.
He looked at Xu Jiaxi in confusion, only to find that she was in tears.
Xu Jiaxi sobbed softly, "At that time, He Jingdong abandoned me and I was very angry."
"At that time, I was a single young girl who had to travel thousands of miles and take a train for a day and a night..."
"In my bag, there is a dagger for self-defense."
Cheng Yu widened his eyes in surprise.
"I...it was the first time I was treated like this. I was so angry that I lost my mind," Xu Jiaxi said in tears, "I just...reached out for the dagger."
Today,
Xu Jiaxi still remembers the extraordinary anger and surging hatred in his heart at that time.
She wanted to -
Sure enough, after Aunt He, no one would ever love her wholeheartedly.
No one will ever choose her unconditionally and stand by her side again!
The critical moment
Jiang Yao noticed that something was wrong with Xu Jiaxi.
His face changed drastically as he watched Xu Jiaxi take out the handle of a dagger from her bag!
He is a boy and very strong.
He grabbed Xu Jiaxi's bag.
The dagger that hadn't been taken out in time fell back into the bag.
Jiang Yao held her bag tightly in his arms.
He grabbed Xu Jiaxi's arm and quickly took her out of the crowded cafeteria.
Finally, Jiang Yao took her through a shortcut and quickly brought her to a deserted grove in the school, and asked, "Classmate, what did you want to do just now?"
Xu Jiaxi cried angrily, "I am He Jingdong's girlfriend! How could he betray me?"
Jiang Yao said angrily: "Even if he really betrayed you, you can't do this!"
Xu Jiaxi: "But I——"
Jiang Yao, "No buts!"
"It's the new China now. There's no such thing as women having to be faithful to their husbands or follow the three obediences and four virtues!"
"You're just a college student, and you haven't heard the saying that women hold up half the sky?"
"Big sister, we have 400 million compatriots! That means... 200 million men. If this one is not good, just change one!"
Xu Jiaxi was frightened by his Northeastern accent at first, but then slowly calmed down.
Jiang Yao is a local and has a natural sense of humor.
Plus, he was trying to appease Xu Jiaxi...
Soon, Xu Jiaxi was burst into laughter by his witty remarks.
She promised Jiang Yao that she would have a good talk with He Jingdong.
However--
Just as Jiang Yao was about to send Xu Jiaxi to the school guesthouse and hadn't left the grove yet,
They both saw He Jingdong holding Cheng Xi's hand and walking hurriedly in another direction.
Xu Jiaxi saw it very clearly:
It was He Jingdong who took the initiative to hold Cheng Xi's hand, not Cheng Xi who held him;
Cheng Xi is even still struggling!
She wanted to get rid of He Jingdong's control, and kept pointing in the direction of the cafeteria with her other hand, as if to say "Don't bother with me, go take care of your partner" or something like that...
Xu Jiaxi, who saw the whole scene, was stunned!
You know, the 1950s was not a very open era.
Xu Jiaxi is still He Jingdong's official girlfriend, but the two have never held hands, kissed, or even said "I love you" or "I like you"!
She only dared to write to He Jingdong in March, asking him in a very obscure way whether the gardenias had bloomed - the implication was "There are trees on the mountain and branches on the trees (gardenia), my heart loves you but you don't know it",
However, the other party did not respond to her.
She didn't know whether the other party didn't understand her meaning or he just had no interest in her.
This feeling of loss,
It was not until she saw with her own eyes how He Jingdong was so overbearing and took the initiative to make such intimate moves towards Cheng Xi, and did not allow Cheng Xi to resist,
Once again it turned into surging hatred.
With lightning speed, Xu Jiaxi snatched away...her bag, which was held in Jiang Yao's arms.
Jiang Yao also reacted quickly.
He immediately took the bag back.
However, Xu Jiaxi, in a rage, quickly pulled out a dagger from his bag.
Even though Jiang Yao had already taken the bag away,
However, Xu Jiaxi had already unsheathed the knife and ran towards He Jingdong.
Hearing this, Cheng Yu was shocked.
His face was pale, and he looked at Xu Jiaxi in disbelief...
He thought: So Xu Jiaxi can be so impulsive? But she looks... indifferent and calm!
"...I was holding an unsheathed dagger,"
"In order to stop me, Senior Brother Jiang grabbed my right hand... which was holding the dagger."
"But he has no experience, and neither do I..."
"He used too much force, and the dagger... stabbed into his left abdomen."
Xu Jiaxi burst into tears. "I was so scared at the time that I couldn't care about He Jingdong anymore. I immediately sent Jiang Yao to the hospital..."
Cheng Yu couldn't help but ask, "Is it serious?"
Xu Jiaxi covered her face with her hands and burst into tears: "The doctor said at the time that his life was not in danger, but his left kidney was severely damaged!"
Cheng Yu closed his eyes.
"The doctor asked me what happened and said that they would call the police for such serious injuries... serious cases would be considered murder, and minor cases would be considered intentional injury."
"I was so scared and regretful at the time," Xu Jiaxi burst into tears, "...Luckily, Brother Jiang woke up. After hearing what the hospital said, he immediately said that it was his own carelessness and wanted to thank me for sending him to the hospital, otherwise he would have died..."
"I was watching over him the whole time. I was so scared that I didn't know what to do."
"Later, he comforted me and said that he was fine in the hospital and asked me to go back and rest first."
"I took a train for a day and a night to get here. I was already very tired and had low blood sugar... and then Brother Jiang got injured... I was in a very bad mood at the time, so I went back..."
Hearing this, Cheng Yu suddenly became nervous, "Where did you go back to?"
Xu Jiaxi recalled another extremely painful incident. She choked up and said, "I went back to...the guesthouse at their school."
Cheng Yu scratched his hair in annoyance.
——What happened later, Lizhi had already told him quietly on the phone.
At this moment, Cheng Yu felt extremely uncomfortable.
Sure enough, Xu Jiaxi also talked about this matter.
But Cheng Yu was her son after all, so she couldn't possibly explain the matter in detail.
She just said that maybe she was too sleepy, too tired, and fell asleep in a daze. Later, He Jingdong came to find her, probably wanting to tell her about Cheng Xi...
Afterwards, no one knew what happened and they both fell asleep in a daze.
After waking up the next morning, Xu Jiaxi vaguely remembered what happened last night and was stunned.
She didn't know that her innocence was more important.
Jiang Yao’s injury is more important.
She just went to the hospital to find Jiang Yao based on her instinct...
The hospital still called the police.
Xu Jiaxi was frightened.
But Jiang Yao insisted that he had hurt himself accidentally.
In the end, the police station didn't say anything.
Xu Jiaxi finally breathed a sigh of relief, and felt very ashamed when facing Jiang Yao.
So she took care of Jiang Yao wholeheartedly.
He Jingdong finally showed up.
Seeing Xu Jiaxi running around to serve Jiang Yao, he felt hatred and jealousy, and started a cold war with Xu Jiaxi.
And Xu Jiaxi hated He Jingdong,
But thinking that Cheng Xi seemed to be forced by He Jingdong,
Xu Jiaxi decided to redeem Cheng Xi - she pretended to tell He Jingdong that they could continue to be together, but Cheng Xi had to leave.
Xu Jiaxi also heard that the reason why Cheng Xi had always been with He Jingdong was because of poverty, so Cheng Xi had to do odd jobs at Northeast University of Technology.
So Xu Jiaxi took out some money and let Cheng Qian leave.
Xu Jiaxi's original intention was to take good care of Jiang Yao first, and then talk about breaking up with He Jingdong after Jiang Yao's health improved.
But what she never expected was that
More than a month later, when summer vacation came, Jiang Yao was finally able to be discharged from the hospital.
Xu Jiaxi breathed a sigh of relief.
When she was about to break up with He Jingdong,
But found out that I was pregnant!
This is really a bolt from the blue.
Xu Jiaxi is too young and too naive.
She knew she had to get an abortion and break up with He Jingdong...
But where to start?
At this time, He Jingdong, who had been in a cold war with her for more than a month, was shocked and angry when he heard that she wanted to break up. He also asked her if she had fallen in love with Jiang Yao.
Xu Jiaxi ignored him and insisted on breaking up...
In order to investigate the truth of "Xu Jiaxi's affair with Jiang Yao", He Jingdong followed Xu Jiaxi, but happened to run into Xu Jiaxi who wanted to go to the hospital for an abortion.
He Jingdong was stunned.
He acted decisively and called Xu Jiaxi's mother, told her the truth about the situation, then took Xu Jiaxi away from the hospital and detained her for two days.
After Mrs. Xu arrived, she questioned Xu Jiaxi and He Jingdong.
final--
Mrs. Xu tried to reconcile them.
Just when Xu Jiaxi was about to argue with her mother,
The hospital suddenly issued Jiang Yao a critical illness notice!
Xu Jiaxi was stunned.
It turned out that Jiang Yao's injury suddenly triggered his family's hereditary nephritis.
The doctor tried several rescue operations to save Jiang Yao's life.
But in the end, the doctor still recommended removing one of his necrotic kidneys.
Xu Jiaxi almost collapsed.
Even though Jiang Yao kept comforting her and said that this had nothing to do with her...
He said he was an orphan because he carried an invisible disease in his body. His father, his uncle and his brother all died of this disease.
Although his mother didn't have the disease, she worked hard for many years to earn money to treat her family's illness, and died of overwork...
Perhaps what Jiang Yao said makes sense.
But Xu Jiaxi felt that
If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have developed hereditary nephritis at such a young age!
So next, Xu Jiaxi ran in and out for Jiang Yao's condition...
By the time Jiang Yao had finished the surgery, his health was finally getting better.
Xu Jiaxi was already three or four months pregnant, and she had already missed the best time to have an abortion. And because of the hard work during pregnancy, her body was also very weak, and the doctor did not recommend her to have an abortion.
At this time, in order not to drag her down, Jiang Yao prepared to drag his sick body to sign up for the construction of the Northwest Satellite Base...
Xu Jiaxi worked non-stop for several months and finally couldn't take it anymore.
She fell seriously ill.
When she gradually recovered from her illness,
He Jingdong has been living with her in Beijing for some time and has registered their marriage.
Her parents warned her in subtle ways that she was pregnant and asked her to concentrate on living with He Jingdong.
He also told her not to think too much, saying that Jiang Yao only had one kidney now...how could he be trusted?
Xu Jiaxi couldn't explain how she felt.
But my belly got bigger day by day.
She could even feel the movement of the baby in her belly...
Even though He Jingdong had worn out most of her love,
She was also reluctant to abort the baby in her belly.
In this way, Xu Jiaxi accepted her fate and followed He Jingdong to Guangzhou with her big belly.
At this point, Xu Jiaxi said to Cheng Yu: "These are the things that happened between me and He Jingdong, and me and Jiang Yao."
She recalled once again those painful past events that she felt were no less painful than going through hardships.
Xu Jiaxi's face turned pale.
After a pause, she said weakly, "It's probably because I ignored He Jingdong back then and was always busy taking care of Jiang Yao's injuries and illnesses, that He Jingdong misunderstood that there was something going on between Jiang Yao and me..."
Cheng Yu took a deep breath.
He didn't know how to tell Xu Jiaxi - should he just tell her directly that you are not as miserable as you think?
You actually...
There are even worse things.
For example, He Jingdong's love for you is all fake...
Do you want to say it so directly?
Can Xu Jiaxi withstand it?
