As it got darker, He Ruixue came to the unit and went to the dormitory to see Zhao Jiajia.
"You haven't finished get off work yet? Didn't you just come here at noon?"
She was half leaning against the head of the bed, her face still a little pale, but she seemed in a good mood, as if she had finally put down a heavy burden.
"I'm here to bring you something."
He Ruixue put the cloth bag on the bed, and the things inside collided with the bed board through the thin quilt, making a dull sound.
"What's worth making a trip here so late at night? It looks pretty heavy."
Zhao Jiajia dragged the bag over and opened it. Under the light, she saw a pile of glittering gold scattered on the bed, with bundles of money next to it. There was a thick stack of big black ten notes alone.
"You went to rob?" Her jaw almost dropped.
"No, this is your compensation, and Xiong Jiaping owes you that."
"But this is too much."
She took out the money and counted it one by one. As a salesperson, she was very fast at counting money.
After a while, he counted it down to the last penny. "Five hundred and sixty-four and a half dollars! You've emptied out all his savings, and there are also these small yellow croakers..."
She took a bite with her teeth. Without even looking at the tooth marks, she could feel the texture and tell that it was real gold.
In addition, there was a pair of gold bracelets, two gold necklaces, and four gold rings, which looked like the dowry usually prepared for a daughter's wedding.
The search was so thorough that even the belongings of Xiong Jiaping's wife were not spared.
She had never seen a jade bracelet before, so she couldn't tell whether it was good or not. She put it aside and pointed at two gray stones as big as heads. "What are these? Is he really short of money to pay his debts, so he's using pickle stones as a substitute?"
"If you're lucky, you can get something good out of this jadeite rough stone."
Zhao Jiajia looked at her expression and found that she was indifferent to money, but showed some interest in the two stones.
He immediately put them back into the bag and pushed it in front of her.
"I don't understand these things. You can play with them. My luck has never been good, so I can't get anything good out of them."
She lost her father when she was young, her mother fell ill when she was a teenager, and now she has been cheated by a scumbag. She just feels that she is the most unlucky person in the world.
If she were to open it, even the best stones would be tainted with bad luck and become worthless.
She took out fifty coins and handed them to her. "I have always paid back what I borrowed. I am now debt-free. Ruixue, thank you for helping me. If it weren't for you, I don't know where I would be now."
The moment she found out she was pregnant, she thought of many possible paths and predicted many possible outcomes.
But no matter which one, it will not be as good as the current situation.
At least she can lie here healthy and safe, and her family doesn't have to be ashamed of her and despised by people around her.
All this is thanks to He Ruixue.
With her ability, she definitely can't do this.
How useless she is. She can't even support a family, and yet she's not on guard and invites a jackal into her home.
Seeing that she was a little depressed and still had some worries, He Ruixue put the money in her hand and said, "Don't worry, Xiong Jiaping's end is definitely worse than yours. I used some tricks and he was almost scared crazy. I heard that his things will be useless from now on.
He prayed to God for this money to buy peace of mind. When his wife's family heard about it, they almost broke up with him and put a big hole in his head."
The best way to comfort someone is to let her know the plight of her enemy.
Sure enough, Zhao Jiajia raised her head, pinched the corner of the quilt, and smiled with schadenfreude, "Serves him right. He's become a eunuch. Let's see how he can harm other girls in the future."
He Ruixue sighed and placed the money in her palm. "And you, even if you cry from now on, you'll cry while holding the money and wearing the gold jewelry. How unlucky are you? Aren't you much better off than him?"
"You're right. His money has become mine. From now on, he will have to eat coarse food while I can live a good life."
My mother's prescription was changed to a more expensive and effective one so that she would no longer be woken by pain in the middle of the night;
They don’t have to keep owing their younger siblings’ tuition fees. If the teachers visit their home too often, they will be embarrassed in front of their classmates.
During the Chinese New Year, the whole family can have a good rest and eat some meat.
Mom no longer has to wash cotton clothes for others and get chilblains on her hands, and younger brothers and sisters no longer have to drool enviously at the fragrance of other people's homes.
As she laughed, Zhao Jiajia's eyes became moist and tears like beads flowed uncontrollably.
But all this was in exchange for her pain.
Is it worth it? Perhaps even she herself doesn't know.
…
Two days later, Zhao Jiajia felt that she had recovered enough and went home. She lied that she had performed well in this exchange and was rewarded with 50 yuan.
Zhao's mother did not suspect anything and happily praised her for doing a good job. She took her shopping and wanted to buy her some new clothes.
Zhao Jiajia refused and took her to see a doctor, who gave her a better prescription.
He prescribed half a year's supply of medicine at once, and Zhao's mother couldn't refuse it. She was so angry that she started cursing.
He Ruixue heard the follow-up of the incident from Fang Wanggui.
After Xiong Jiaping learned the widow's address, he went up the mountain in the dark and found the family she later married.
The man lived a down-to-earth life and treated her well, but his family was poor. She later gave birth to two more children, and her life became even more difficult.
She also had a difficult time dealing with the children in front of her. If she didn't let them eat enough, others would criticize her and scold her. If she let them eat enough, her own children would starve.
But these are all trivial matters in life. Overall, she lives a more stable life than when she was a widow. She even looks a little fatter, but she looks very old.
I don’t know if it was because the last induced abortion caused serious damage to my body.
