7th Story 11
At this time, the Xu family, who was far away in Beiping, was also silent. After a long time, Xu’s father sighed, “Okay, let’s make this look for someone to see. You insisted on getting a divorce at the beginning. It was our Xu family who was sorry for Qinghan. Now that Qinghan can live well, we should be happy.”
Xu’s mother lowered her head and wiped her tears, “If I should have known that Wenxuan’s favorite people were all of this kind of virtue. I would never have agreed to Wenxuan and Qinghan’s divorce. Qinghan is such a good girl as a daughter-in-law, in the past few years in Xu’s family, she has served us well and managed the family’s business properly. Unlike the current one, who only knows about love and romance all day long, and also gave Wenxuan a cuckold! If there was no divorce back then, maybe now I have grandchildren.”
“Okay, what’s the use of talking about it.” Father Xu said softly.
“I don’t know what kind of medicine that vixen gave Wenxuan. Wenxuan believed in her so deeply, I watched her get into a car with a strange man with my own eyes, but Wenxuan didn’t believe me.” Mother Xu cried. “It a sin!”
“Who is to blame? You didn’t do it yourself. At that time, Xie Fangfei was just dancing with someone. You slapped her in public and said that she was promiscuous and hooked up with men everywhere. It turned out that you were just talking nonsense. It’s no wonder that Wenxuan never trusts you again. Well, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and Wenxuan has grown up, you don’t have to worry about his affairs.” Although Xu’s father was also very upset, he was very helpless.
Xu’s mother wiped her tears and said: “A hundred-year-old son, ninety-nine years of worry, Wen Xuan is my son, no matter how old he is, I still have to take care of his affairs.”
Xu’s father shook his head, looked down to continue reading the newspaper, only then he stopped talking. Mother Xu was still weeping secretly. Outside the window, Xu Wenxuan stopped, and behind him stood the servant Mrs. Zhu who looked embarrassed. “Sister-in-law Zhu, what’s the matter with my parents?”
Mrs. Zhu smiled awkwardly, “Young master, don’t you know? The young lady published an article in the newspaper earlier, after the master saw it, he read it to My wife to listened to it, somehow, after my wife listened to it, it was like this.”
Article? What article? Did Fang Fei write an article scolding his parents? Xu Wenxuan turned around and walked out, leaving only one sentence, “Don’t tell the master and wife that I’ve came back.”
Aunt Zhu curled her lips, it’s better if you don’t come back, as soon as you come back, you will ask for money! Young Mistress Xie said something very good earlier about the Young Master’s vision is getting worse and worse. Young Mistress Xie has a job anyway, and she can still make money every month. Unfortunately, this one knows how to spend money without having a serious job all day long, that is the reason why Young Master Yue must run here two or three times.
Xu Wenxuan bought a newspaper from a newsboy on the side of the road, got on the tram, sat down, opened the newspaper, and found the article written by Xie Fangfei. The whole article was about what she saw, heard and felt when she went to Hong Kong. At the end of the article, I wrote about a person, “The thing that surprised me the most when I went to Hong Kong this time was that I met my ex-husband’s ex-wife. This relationship may seem incredible to many people, but it was true that it is actually so incredible. Everyone knows , My ex-husband before me, he had an ex-wife who he called a feudal mess. This time I was in Hong Kong, when I was in trouble, she was the one who rescued me. At that time, I thought she is still a woman cultivated by the old society. But a few months later, I accidentally stepped into a clothing store that was highly sought after by the upper class in Hong Kong – Promise. Here, please allow me to waste some pen and ink to advertise this clothing store, its advertise slogan is very attractive, “I promise to give you the best self”. The clothes in this store are novel and unique in design, or generous and simple, or trendy and beautiful, or nostalgic for tradition, and every woman can buy them. I found my own clothes in it. I heard that this store plans to develop a men’s clothing line next season. Well, that’s the end of the ad. Anyway, I really like the clothes in this store. Unfortunately, the price is beyond the expectations of ordinary people. Sigh… The owner of this store and the designer of the clothes are the ex-wife of the ex-husband I just mentioned, the woman who is called feudal mess. In fact, I can’t see any shadow of feudal dregs in her. Now she is a confident and calm woman. She seems to like wearing cheongsam very much. Because of her liking, many people in Hong Kong, a city where Chinese and Western cultures exchange, have also driven many people to wear cheongsam. I have to say that she is completely transformed. Maybe she is still some distance away from women in the new era with new ideas and culture, but it is undeniable that she is no longer the feudal dross in someone’s mouth. Finally, I wish all women in the world can have a good life.”
After reading Xie Fangfei’s article, Xu Wenxuan took a deep breath. He didn’t expect Xie Fangfei to walk with Liu Qinghan, and he didn’t expect that Qinghan, a woman, would make such a big business. Could it be that he really underestimated her in the past? It’s just that no matter how big the business is, he won’t regret divorcing her. He, Xu Wenxuan, a dignified associate professor of literature at Peking University, how could he have a wife who was born in a merchant? Isn’t that making people laugh? However, Qinghan still likes to wear cheongsam. In his memory, he once told her that she looks best in cheongsam. So in the future, regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter, she will wear cheongsam all year round. She is still like this now, is she still obsessed with him? This is not acceptable. She already has a new life, she should get out of that inappropriate marriage thought as soon as possible. It is inappropriate for her to be so obsessed with each other’s lives. Especially Xiaoman is a jealous character, if she finds out, she will definitely cry again. Xu Wenxuan wondered whether he should write a letter to Liu Qinghan, telling her not to love him anymore, and to let go earlier would be a good thing for both of them. Thinking like this, Xu Wenxuan opened the newspaper again, looked carefully, finally saw the address of the clothing store. Xu Wenxuan wrote it down silently, he planned to go back and wrote a letter to Liu Qinghan, telling her not to miss him any more, not to try to disturb his life again. After returning home, Xu Wenxuan looked upstairs and asked the servant, “Young Mistress didn’t go out today?”
The servant shook his head, “Young Mistress went to the hospital, then went upstairs after she came back, and she never came down.”
Xu Wenxuan frowned, ” Hospital?”
Why did she go to the hospital, was she sick? Xu Wenxuan hurriedly to upstairs, knocked lightly on the bedroom door, “Xiaoman, have you fallen asleep? I’ll come in!”
Then he opened the door and went in. Ye Xiaoman was lying on the bed, Xu Wenxuan sited beside her, carefully watching her complexion, and her complexion was not very good, “What’s wrong? Are you sick? Your complexion is so bad?”
Ye Xiaoman opened her eyes sat down and fall into Xu Wenxuan’s arms, “Xuan, I’m pregnant.”
Xu Wenxuan smiled in surprise, “I’m pregnant! That’s great, it’s a good thing. Why don’t you look happy!”
This child came at the right time. With this child, the relationship between Xiaoman and his parents will be broken, we can relax and everything will be very good. How did Xu Wenxuan know about Ye Xiaoman’s concern, she didn’t feel well today, and her period was a few days late, so she went to the hospital for an examination, it turned out that she was pregnant, almost two months. Counting the time, Ye Xiaoman doesn’t know whether the child she is carrying is Xu Wenxuan’s or that man’s. No wonder she’s not in a good mood. Hearing what Xu Wenxuan said, Ye Xiaoman had no choice but to find an excuse to prevaricate, “I think it’s too soon, I’m not ready yet!”
Xu Wenxuan smiled, “You, what’s the point of preparing for this, the big deal is that when the child is born, we ask another servant to help take care of it and I promise it will not affect you.”
Ye Xiaoman snorted, “Please ask another servant, your mother should jump up and call me a prodigal!”
“For her grandson, how can she would say that. Believe it or not, once Mother finds out that you are pregnant, she will definitely come over immediately, and she will take care of you now and in the future, I promise that she will not speak sarcasticly like before.” Xu Wenxuan said with a smile.
Ye Xiaoman thinks about it too, the one in her stomach may be the eldest grandson of the Xu family, and the old woman dare not treat her badly for the sake of her stomach. As for whether it is Xu Wenxuan’s child, we will know when it is born. Anyway, there are only three daughters in ‘his’ family. No matter whose children are born, as long as they are born, they are the treasures of the two families. In short, enjoy the few months first.
Sure enough, after Xu’s father and mother heard about Ye Xiaoman’s pregnancy, they came here by car that night, carrying a large bag of things, various supplements, asking about their health and very caring, it was the first time for Ye Xiaoman to enjoy this kind of treatment. She feel a little flattered by the treatment. Xu’s mother also asked if Ye Xiaoman should move to their place, or if they moved here, Xu Wenxuan stopped her as soon as she said it. He knew that Xiaoman couldn’t agree, many new women nowadays are unwilling to talk to about leaving together with their parents-in-law. Seeing this, Xu’s mother felt a little regretful, but she didn’t force it. Nothing is more important than her precious grandson now.
“Since you don’t want to live with us, should you hire another servant? I’m afraid you won’t be able to take care if only has one servant.”
Ye Xiaoman was proud in her heart, but on the face she declined tactfully, “I don’t want it anymore, Xuan only earns two hundred yuan a month, and I have to raise children in the future, so I don’t have enough money to hire a servant!”
Xu’s mother laughed, looking attentively at Ye Xiaoman’s stomach, “I’ll pay for the servant’s money, as long as it’s for the good of my precious grandson! You can spend as much as you want!” Xu’s father also nodded in agreement. Xu’s mother looked at Xu Wenxuan again and said, “Do you have any money? Now that Xiaoman is pregnant, eating and drinking can’t be sloppy, she has to eat more. I have three hundred yuan here. Take it, it’s for my grandson to spend for food and drink!”
Seeing this, Ye Xiaoman smiled triumphantly, it really is that mothers are not more expensive than their children. In the past, every time I asked the old lady for money, I had to look at the old lady’s face, but this time the old lady took the initiative to give the money. If I had known that having a child would work so well, I would have been pregnant long ago. Ye Xiaoman thought more deeply, the old man and the old lady seem to have a lot of money, they only have one son, Xu Wenxuan, if this is really Xu Wenxuan in his belly, then sooner or later, the Xu family’s money will belong to my son? Thinking of this, Ye Xiaoman silently prayed to God in her heart, hoping that this child really belonged to Xu Wenxuan.
