What else can I do if I don’t want to eat it cold?
You're truly a good Chinese wife. You say you're worried about this and that, but why aren't you worried about yourself? With your personality, who else would I bully? This kind of thing should be handled by your husband. You should listen to his advice. If you can get along, then live together. If you can't, then live alone. It's not like there's nothing else in this world except love.
I thought so in my heart, but I couldn't say these words to He Fangfang directly. I had to be more tactful. Since He Fangfang cared so much about her husband, I would start with her husband.
"Sister Fangfang, you have been married to your brother-in-law for so many years. What kind of person do you think your brother-in-law is?
When He Fangfang thought of her husband, her eyes lit up. "Your brother-in-law is a very good man. He treats me very well and loves me very much."
When Jiang Shushu saw He Fangfang like this, three words immediately popped up in his mind: love-brained. Jiang Shushu was afraid that He Fangfang was just a lover's eye for beauty, thinking everything about her was perfect, so he quickly asked, "How do you mean perfect? Can you tell me more specifically?"
"When your brother-in-law comes home on leave, he buys me gifts and sends me things from the army from time to time. When he's at home, he takes over the housework and doesn't let me do anything. Your brother-in-law only keeps 5 yuan for himself every month from his salary and bonuses, and sends the rest to me without a penny. When I'm sad, he cheers me up. Sometimes when I act unreasonable, he tolerates me..."
Jiang Shushu quickly interrupted He Fangfang. If she continued, she would probably talk about it even if her husband gave her a piece of grass.
"Okay, I understand. My brother-in-law is indeed a good brother-in-law."
"Sister Fangfang, I think you should call your brother-in-law and talk things out with him,"
"I can't get pregnant. I don't know how to tell your brother-in-law. I don't want to implicate him, but I can't bear to leave him." He Fangfang feels that she is in a difficult situation now. No matter what choice she makes, it is wrong.
"This kind of thing can't be kept secret. It's better to explain it clearly as soon as possible so you know what to do next. Everyone has different opinions. What you think is a good decision may not be the same for your brother-in-law. He may love the child, but from the various behaviors you just described, I think he loves you more. If he knew that you gave up on him for a child that doesn't exist, how heartbroken would he be? So don't just look at the problem from your perspective. Instead, talk to your brother-in-law and listen to his thoughts."
He Fangfang's face was full of hesitation.
Grandma Jin, who had been hiding behind the door for a long time, also stood up at this time, "Fangfang, Shushu is right. I have watched Zhou Yi grow up since he was a child, and I know him very well. You are definitely more important to him than the child. You are lucky to be rescued this time. If you hadn't been rescued, Zhou Yi would have been left without a family. What would you have done with him?"
He Fangfang seemed to have made up her mind, "Okay, I'll call Ayi."
Grandma Jin: "That's right, I'll go with you."
Jiang Shushu: "Sister Fangfang, I will go with you and cheer you up!" If the man does not divorce He Fangfang, then he will offer to buy her a job. If the man wants to divorce, then this job is the foundation of He Fangfang's life, so he will give up the idea and continue to go to the Feng family to look for connections.
"Okay, thank you, Grandma Jin and Shushu."
The three of them came to the post office, and He Fangfang called Zhou Yi's unit, saying she wanted to look for Zhou Yi, and was then asked to wait ten minutes before calling back.
Ten minutes later, He Fangfang called Zhou Yi's unit again.
"Fangfang, is that you? I'm Ayi."
When He Fangfang heard Zhou Yi's voice, tears began to flow silently, but she was afraid that Zhou Yi on the phone would hear it, so she covered her mouth tightly with her other hand.
But Zhou Yi still heard a hint of nasal sound, and asked nervously: "Fangfang, what's wrong with you? Did something happen at home? Why are you crying?"
It would have been fine if Zhou Yi hadn't said anything, but once he did, He Fangfang started crying even harder, "Ayi, I... wuwuwu... I don't know how to tell you."
"Fangfang, don't cry. It will hurt me. Talk slowly and I'll listen. We're not in a hurry, and you don't have to worry. I'm here for you. Even if the sky falls, I'll hold it up for you."
…
He Fangfang was crying and Zhou Yi was comforting her. After five or six minutes, He Fangfang finally stopped crying.
"Fangfang, are you feeling better?"
"Much better, thank you, Ayi."
…
Jiang Shushu looked at He Fangfang with worry on his face, but he was digging his toes into the ground awkwardly. "This damn love! It's such a waste of money." "Big sister! This is a long-distance call, 1.1 yuan a minute. You're almost out of the picture of a happy ending, and you haven't even started talking about business yet?"
It was unknown what Zhou Yi said that made He Fangfang burst into laughter.
Even Grandma Jin couldn't stand it anymore. Just over ten yuan was gone, and the business hadn't even been discussed. "Fangfang, let's get down to business first. This call has been going on for ten minutes, and there are people waiting in line behind us."
He Fangfang immediately put away the smile on her face and told Zhou Yi briefly what had happened in the past three months in a depressed mood.
The successive pieces of news caught Zhou Yi off guard. All he could think about was that his wife was being bullied and he would never have children.
There was no sound from the other end of the phone for a long time, which made He Fangfang scared. The tears that had just stopped flowing started to flow again.
"Ayi, are you still there? You..." Do you want to divorce me?
Zhou Yi came to his senses immediately after hearing the crying. Now was not the time for him to be sad. "Fangfang, I'm here. I'm sorry for making you suffer so much. If we don't have children, then we don't have them. Let's just live a good life together. It's also good to be alone."
"You will be laughed at by others in the future."
"Who dares to laugh at me? Besides, whether or not to have children is a matter between us and my wife. It has nothing to do with outsiders. Why should they interfere?"
"Fangfang, I made meritorious service some time ago. Now I'm a company commander and can bring my family with me. Would you like to join me? I've missed you so much." If the news of Fangfang's infertility spread, she would definitely be criticized. Bringing her to the army could, on the one hand, avoid rumors, and on the other hand, allow the couple to be reunited.
"Okay, I'll go with you to join the army." He Fangfang agreed without thinking.
"Great! I'll ask for leave from my boss right away and apply for housing. I'll be home in a few days. Don't worry about the Zhou family's affairs. I'll handle them when I get back."
"good."
As soon as Jiang Shushu heard about the military, he knew his job was a sure thing. He Fangfang had already found out about her job, which was as a waitress in a state-owned restaurant, a rare and good job, much better than working in a factory.
