Chapter 181 New Home
"Xiao Wen, go to bed. You don't have to accompany us."
"Who will accompany you? I'm staying up tonight to celebrate the New Year. I won't sleep."
The three of them sat on a sofa in such a strange and harmonious way. On
New Year's Eve, everyone was celebrating the New Year at home. Late at night, the highway was unobstructed. They set out at around nine o'clock in the evening and arrived in the town at almost three o'clock.
Qi Anlu received their message ten minutes in advance. Aunt Xiaowen sent him and his mother to the address on the location.
At three o'clock, there was no one setting off firecrackers in the town. It was quiet everywhere.
"Anlu, we are here!"
The car window opened, and Qi Anlu saw three "silly" smiling faces.
"Hurry up and get in the car."
Zhou Xinfang patted her son, "Anlu, you go first, mom will talk to your aunt Xiaowen."
The two walked away, and Zhou Xinfang said, "Thank you, Xiaowen."
"Nothing to thank you for. I thought you would be confused until you get old, but I didn't expect you are not hopeless. Hurry back, I'm leaving."
After saying that, she turned around and left without paying any attention to Zhou Xinfang.
When Zhou Xinfang got in the car, she saw that her son had already started laughing and joking with his friends, which made her smile for the first time today.
"Thank you, Auntie, for remembering my Anlu so much."
Qu Zizhou said, "Why are you being polite, Auntie? Anlu usually helps us, and we are helping each other."
"Uncle Gao, let's go to the city and find a hotel to stay in, and you can take a rest."
"Okay." Gao Feng nodded in agreement. This was also what the boss told him, that he must take a good rest before returning, and must not drive tired.
"By the way, have you eaten? Are you hungry? I have delicious food here."
Aunt Zhang brought two boxes of dumplings and even prepared the dipping sauce carefully.
Qi Anlu and his mother were full and couldn't eat anymore after trying a few. On the contrary, Gu Zhijing and his friends were hungry on the way here. They ate dozens of dumplings one by one.
The car drove for more than an hour before arriving in the city. It was almost dawn now and everyone didn't choose. They found a chain hotel that looked good and prepared to rest.
They booked four rooms in total. According to the seat allocation in the school, Qi Anlu and Chu Mingyan had one room, and Gu Zhijing and Qu Zizhou had another room.
Zhou Xinfang paid for the hotel. As an adult, she couldn't bear to let several children pay.
Gu Zhijing and the others could understand her thoughts, so they didn't compete with her to pay.
In the room, Chu Mingyan asked Qi Anlu: "What are your plans after you go back?"
During the hours waiting for his friends to come, Qi Anlu had been thinking about what to do after he went back.
"First, I'll go home and pack up my and my mother's things, find a hotel to stay in, and then find a lawyer to sue my mother and Qi Wenhan for a divorce. After all these things are resolved, I'll see where to live."
He asked his mother, and the house was in Qi Wenhan's name alone, and no matter how the property was distributed after the divorce, Qi Anlu didn't want to live there.
After hearing him say this, Chu Mingyan knew that he must have thought it through clearly. “It’s OK as long as you’ve figured it out. Just let me know if you need any help. If you don’t have enough money, I have some money here. Don’t be polite with us.”
“Okay, I know. I won’t be polite with you.”
Chu Mingyan took out his mobile phone and transferred the money through Alipay.
"You guys go back to stay in a hotel, and it will cost a lot of money to hire a lawyer, so you should take it first."
"I'll tell you when I don't have enough, but I don't need it now."
"Come on, I don't know you yet. You won't tell me unless it's absolutely necessary. Just take the money and find a good lawyer, get more property and pay me back."
After saying that, Chu Mingyan turned sideways, with his back to Qi Anlu, "Okay, okay, no more talking, I'm going to sleep."
They rested for a few hours, left the hotel, had lunch, and then got on the car to return.
Zhou Xinfang received a message from her sister, saying that Qi Wenhan had not left home yet.
Qi Anlu also told her mother about her thoughts.
"Mom, move our things out and find a place to live after we go back, and we can talk about other things later."
Qi Anlu didn't expect that he was not the only one who considered these things.
"I have already found a place to live, near your school. Before I went back to my hometown, I had already paid half a year's rent."
"Mom..." Qi Anlu wanted to ask if her mother had been planning to divorce for a long time.
"Anlu, don't worry about these things. I am your mother. I will arrange it. Mom just wants you to be happy."
She found a medical record in her son's desk. She thought her son was not feeling well and went to the hospital without telling her. When she opened it, she found out that he was moderately depressed.
Before, she had only seen depression on the Internet and only knew that it might lead to suicide.
Later, she secretly went to the hospital to ask, one, two, three...
The doctor told her that if moderate depression is not treated or intervened, it will definitely become more and more serious.
Later, she had the opportunity to read books and search for information on the Internet.
In fact, she had known about Qi Wenhan's cheating for a long time, and she was sad, angry, but at a loss.
Until later... the book said that most adolescent depression is due to family.
She realized that her cowardice and the bastard Qi Wenhan made her son sick and unhappy.
...
When they arrived in Jinjiang, it was already dark, and they had no time to rest. The three of them accompanied the mother and son home. After packing up their things, they sent them to the newly rented house.
Knowing that the mother and son must have a lot to say, they didn't stay long, and prepared to leave after sending them there.
"Now that your home is so close to the school, I'll come to your home to play when school starts." Qu Zizhou said with a smile.
Zhou Xinfang wanted to thank her son's friends, but she didn't know what to do.
Hearing this, she hurriedly said, "Auntie welcomes you to come over. I'll make you some delicious food. You don't have to wait until school starts. We can come in a few days."
"Okay, Auntie, I love fish."
"You are so rude. You even ordered the dishes."
"Why should I be polite? We are not strangers, right, Anlu."
Qi Anlu smiled and nodded. He knew that Qu Zizhou said this on purpose because he didn't want his mother to have too much psychological burden.
After sending his friends away, Qi Anlu began to help his mother pack up.
This house is much smaller than the one they lived in before. His room is only half the size of the previous room, but Qi Anlu thinks it is very good here.
When he thought that there would only be him and his mother here in the future without Qi Wenhan, he felt that even the air was much fresher.
"Mom, don't cook dinner tonight, let's order takeout."
"Okay, Mom has never eaten takeout before."
"Son, let's go pick up the kitten tomorrow."
"Okay, then Mom, have you named the kitten?"
