Chapter 140: 6000 words (seeking genuine monthly ticket)(1/2)
"Wife, what's wrong with you?"
I walked to her and asked softly, afraid of shocking her, but she seemed to have not heard me.
"Xixi!"
The moment I reached out and held her in my arms, she seemed to be a frozen person and reacted with breath. She took a deep breath, then vomited, then took a few more breaths, as if she was holding her back, and then she finally sobbed and cried out.
"Woo...woo...husband! Husband! My uncle passed away last month! Woo..."
After saying this, she burst into tears and collapsed in my arms.
Such sudden news really shocked me.
Until that time, when I learned that Jiang Xi was pregnant, her uncle had very little contact with us. Later, my mother-in-law got sick and didn't dare to tell her at first, because she was afraid that he would be anxious and sad when he got older. She told her uncle that she would not tell her when her mother-in-law passed away.
My uncle was sad for a while, and the meaning he expressed in his words was that he always felt that if Jiang Xi had not married me, a pauper, he might have taken care of his mother-in-law better. And we had children early, which also caused my mother-in-law to have no money to see a doctor and was also affected, so...
Later, my uncle had fewer contacts with Jiang Xi, but Jiang Xi called my uncle regularly, and every time my uncle said, "Just be fine for you to have a good life, don't worry about me."
In short, people's emotions are very complicated, and everyone's ideas are different. I don't think my uncle's ideas are correct, but it seems that from his perspective, it's not wrong to have that idea.
According to his thoughts, it was my mother-in-law who was implicated, and it was also me who implicated Jiang Xi. Because of this, Jiang Xi disappointed him.
And Jiang Xi, I think she must be more embarrassed than me.
I am actually quite frivolous in my relationship. I don’t know if it’s a natural personality or a family environment. In short, I never confront my relatives. I remember the kindness of others to me and think about it. But my feelings for others don’t seem to be strong, except for Jiang Xi!
Because the feelings Jiang Xi gave me were so strong that I was soaked in it. I couldn't find it even if I wanted to make excuses to be indifferent. I could only use strong emotions to repay her.
So, at this moment, I felt particularly sorry for her, because I felt sorry for her and felt a little guilty. I didn’t do it well, but I dedicated all the best I could to Jiang Xi, and even prepared to dedicate everything in my life to Jiang Xi, and I have tried my best!
This is how life is. We will have many things, but we still cannot be perfect after doing our best.
This is the real life! It would be great if you can have perfect beauty!
I hugged Jiang Xi's trembling body tightly, hoping to suppress her panic.
"Woo... Husband, why is human life so fragile? A good person will die if he says nothing. I thought my uncle was in good health and would not leave as early as my mother. But who would have thought that he actually got cancer. He got cancer very early, but he just didn't tell me... Woo..."
"Wife! People cannot be resurrected. We have no way to resurrect ourselves. The only way we can do is to face the sun and live a good life after crying."
"But husband, I have regrets. I didn't even see him before my uncle died. You don't understand, you don't understand. In my mind, my uncle is not as light as my biological father. In the first few years, he ignored me, so I just called him and didn't go to find him. It was because I was a little angry with him. I blamed him for not forgiveing me. I thought to myself, this is not my biological father. If she were my biological father, she would accept my choice, so I didn't go to him. I think I was wrong. I should go to him and should spend more time with him in his later years. I really didn't expect him to leave so early. I was only in my sixties. I never thought he would have cancer! Woo..."
"Wife, you want to be mournful, no one wants to do this!"
I was so sad that she cried, and my eyes turned red. Although I didn’t have much feelings for my uncle, just watching Jiang Xi crying so sadly, I could feel that my uncle helped Jiang Xi a lot, and Jiang Xi treated him as his father.
Jiang Xi was still crying heartbrokenly, "Woo... I used to see the words "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the son wants to be filial but the parents are not here." At that time, I always felt that it was far away from me. For my mother, I felt that I had done my best, I had a clear conscience and no regrets, but for my uncle, he helped me a lot. He once loved me like he loved his daughter, but I did nothing for him. He was sick, and I didn't even say anything comforting to him. I didn't even overturn a sip of water for him. Before leaving, I didn't even see him for the last time! Woo... I'm really unfilial, I'm a damn girl! Woo..."
Jiang Xi was crying in my arms and was almost exhausted, her head and sweating all over her body. I kept following her back, hoping that she would feel more comfortable.
Jiang Dongdong was not familiar with this uncle, and she didn't know who had passed away. But when she saw her mother crying so sadly, she cried silently next to her, so scared that she didn't dare to speak.
"Wife, you can't do this. Excessive sadness will hurt your body. Besides, you will scare Jiang Ji. Look at her..."
I moved Jiang Xi's face and asked her to look at Jiang Dong, trying to calm her down.
"Woo... I can't control myself, I can't control my heart. I'm really sad. My heart feels so regretful that it's about to crack. It's really painful..."
She cried and began to slap her heart, and there was a feeling of pain and depression.
Actually, at this time, I also blamed my uncle a little. Although the dead are the most important, we should not blame the dead, but I don’t know if my uncle’s approach is to treat Jiang Xi well or not forgiving Jiang Xi. In short, if my uncle also had a deep affection for Jiang Xi, he should have thought that if Jiang Xi left so many regrets, she would definitely be in pain, unless her uncle no longer regards her as his daughter!
Whenever this happens, I think of the old saying, "Raising a child to have a biological child". The relationship between a biological child is really not a one or two thing that can divide the relationship, not a biological child. Even if there were many good relationships, if they were not maintained well, I don't know which day it would break up because of something I couldn't figure out. This is really a matter that is hard to explain, but sad and helpless.
That night, Jiang Xi cried for a long time, but in the end she couldn't cry anymore. She cried so hard that she fell asleep in my arms.
I hugged her horizontally to the bed, washed the hot towel, wiped her face, and then Jiang Tiao took the towel to wipe her hands and feet. Jiang Xi closed her eyes and did not move.
I silently returned the train ticket back to Nanjing.
The next day, when Jiang Xi woke up, she took us to the cemetery to worship our uncle as expected.
While having breakfast, Jiang Xi and I ate, but Jiang Xi didn't eat a bite. No matter how we persuaded her, she said that she couldn't eat a bite and didn't want to eat at all. I think she might be punishing herself in this way.
The one who called her yesterday was her cousin, who also told her where her uncle's tombstone was.
When we arrived, there was a deserted person and the cemetery was really a place that made people feel lonely and desolate.
I saw Jiang Xi's emotions losing control again, and hurriedly said, "Everyone will have this day. Yesterday we were eighteen years old, today we were thirty-eight years old, tomorrow, I don't know how old we will leave this world. Jiang Xi, we have to learn to face it strongly. The past, especially the sadness, let it pass quickly, because nostalgia is no longer beneficial, the facts are powerless to turn the world, sadness will only hurt yourself. Besides, your uncle does this, maybe for your own good, he doesn't want you to see him to death by being tortured by illness. If you are still too sad now, it will be in vain for his efforts."
I think if my uncle still has feelings for Jiang Xi, then I will definitely have these ideas. Of course, this is what I guess. I am willing to guess on the better side, and at the same time I hope that Jiang Xi's heart can be comforted.
"Cough!" Jiang Xi sighed deeply, "Okay, I know my husband, the dead are dead, and the living are still alive. Before our mission in this world has been completed, we all have to work hard, live with sunshine, happiness, happiness, and full of positive energy."
I always knew that Jiang Xi had a strong ability to adjust her emotions, but I thought she would have to adjust her uncle for a while. She said this at this moment, so she must not feel sad about Jiang Dong and I following her. At any time, she was considerate and thoughtful.
After worshiping my uncle, our family of three boarded the train back to Nanjing.
Along the way, because Jiang Xi was not in a high mood, even if she occasionally smiled, it was not difficult to see that she was showing a forced smile to make us happy. So Jiang Tian and I didn't make trouble for her too much, but just accompanied her quietly. The two of us grabbed her hand, wanting to transfer the temperature on our body to her cold hands, as if that would make her heart warmer.
When I returned to Nanjing, Jiangdong went to school and I continued to work in the living room. Originally, Jiang Xi said she wanted to write an article, but she said she was sad to stay. It would be better to devote her energy to writing an article, and maybe she would feel better.
I fully support her in writing articles. As long as she is not sad, she can do whatever she wants.
However, when I had agreed to write an article, when I secretly went to see her after fifteen minutes, what I saw was that she looked at the screen in a daze, her eyes were not focal, and there was a row of words on it, that's all.
In other words, she sat in front of the computer for fifteen minutes and wrote only a dozen words.
"Wife!" I called her softly.
"Huh?" She seemed to have noticed me, and then sighed, "Cough! I'm distracted, my mind is full of what my uncle has treated me before, but I haven't treated him well." When she said this, her eyes turned red again.
"Wife, you can't write it, so just lie there and rest for a while. Look at the property and study the community that Qiu Xincheng's lover said. If you want to buy it, you have to buy it early. Now, the current situation of the house may be that you can't afford it one month later."
This seemed to wake her up a little, and she immediately said, "You are right. I can't delay the big thing because of sadness. I'll take three days off and get the house done before I can talk about it."
"Yes! Yes! Anyway, yours is also a failure. It's nothing to take three days off, and few people will be there..."
Before I could say the word "Yi", I saw Jiang Xi grinning, looking like a vicious dog, and she was about to bite me. Then she didn't bite me, but just said viciously to me, "Get out!"
"Yes, wife!"
She scolded me, but she actually scolded me? But I was in a good mood. She could scold people, at least prove that the sadness had weakened, otherwise, like the night before, she would be as angry as she did.
What is it to be scolded by my wife? As long as she is not so sad, I am happy not to be scolded or beaten!
In the next three days, Jiang Xi did not write a manuscript, but talked about the house with the agent. This matter was really unstoppable. After almost the conversation, Jiang Xi began to follow the agent to see the house.
There are I love xx and chain x all over the country. Their program Jiang Xi wishes to be more familiar with their employees, so the house viewing goes smoothly.
During the day, Jiang Xi went to see the house alone. After dinner, when we were lying in bed, she began to plot what kind of house to buy.
She thought while saying, "I have seen all the school district houses in xx elementary school around it, but the house in xx is the best environment. It is true that it is exactly the same as Qiu Xincheng's lover. It is a very high-end community. I live in such a community, and I feel like I am no longer a loser."
"Hahahaha!" I was amused by her, "Wife, since it is such a good community, you must buy it."
"Well! I'll buy this community. Husband, please tell me your requirements for the house first. When we buy the house we live in, we must respect your opinions and feelings."
When I heard this, of course I was happy. I could respect my opinion for such a big thing, which shows that my status at home is extraordinary! Right?
I said happily, "First of all, I don't like elevator houses and high-rise houses. Elevator horror incidents occur every day in the news. I have a phobia. Then the high-rise buildings are because the house I rented in Beijing that time left a psychological shadow. I still prefer the six-story multi-story buildings..."
Jiang Xi hugged my neck and said with a smile, "I will listen to you!"
"Wow, your wife, you are so nice to me!" I was so moved.
As a result, she said, "No, the main reason your ideas do not conflict with mine. I am the same as you like, hahaha, and then I plan to buy a house worth less than 3.5 million yuan, more than 30,000 yuan per square meter, which can be bought about 90 square meter. With the remaining more than 3 million, I want to buy another one for rent. We live in this set ourselves, so I am too lazy to climb the stairs, so I will choose the second, third floor and second floor as the first choice. The third floor is tired, and I am absolutely not qualified to be selected on the fourth floor or above."
"Hahahaha! Wife, you are not old yet, are you too lazy?"
Jiang Xi smiled and said, "Actually, it's not lazy. I like to exercise when I have time, but the exercise of climbing stairs makes people feel uncomfortable, so I don't like it.
"Wife, whatever you say is good!"
It’s great, my wife and I will always be so compatible! This time, either I deliberately flattered her or simply synchronized our ideas.
So the next night, after I got off work, Jiang Xi arranged for our family of three to go to see the house together.
Jiang Dongdong shouted happily, "Oh, I'm going to see a big house, I'm going to buy a big house."
One night, the agent took us to see more than ten houses according to Jiang Xi's request, but none of them were favored by Jiang Xi.
There are many houses of about 90 square meters, but they are all two-bedroom apartments.
The intermediary officer Xiao Wang tried to persuade Jiang Xi that this time Jiang Xi was looking for a girl, and this girl had a very good attitude, giving people a very sincere feeling.
"Sister, this community has more than 90 square meters and is not as small as three-bedroom apartments. They are all two-bedroom apartments. Isn't it very good to see the two second-floor apartments today? Just think about it carefully!"
Jiang Xi smiled slightly and said, "Xiao Wang, don't miss me, because you can't."
Xiao Wang said sincerely, "Sister, I didn't fool you!"
Jiang Xi smiled again and said, "Xiao Wang, if you are not sincere enough, I won't buy a house for you."
Jiang Xi suddenly looked serious.
Xiao Wang still said with a clear conscience, "Sister, I really didn't lie to you. Have you seen a 90-square-meter-long little three-bedroom apartment?"
"There are no small three-bedrooms that have been released now, but there are small three-bedrooms worth 90 square meters in the transaction records on your app."
Xiao Wang's face suddenly became a little embarrassed, and then she smiled and wanted to turn it back, "Oh, sister, you look at it very carefully. I mean, there are no small three-bedroom houses now, so you should consider the two-bedroom house."
Jiang Xi said more seriously, "It is my business to not consider buying a two-bedroom apartment in the exam, but you should tell the truth. If your words are full of moisture, how should I trust you to help me buy a house?"
