322 Divorce(1/2)
Dong Shan stayed in the hospital for three days and insisted on being discharged.
She did not return to her and Qiao Zhengchong's house, but dragged her illness to her small house.
Chi Yue stayed with her in the hospital for two days, and when she was discharged, she accompanied her home with her.
In the group "Asian Five-A Beauty Zone", the friends laughed and teased Chi Yue, saying that she was smart and would get her future mother-in-law early, and she would suffer less losses when she married into the Qiao family in the future.
Chi Yue smiled and looked at them with joy without refuting. She knew clearly in her heart that her care and care for Dong Shan was just out of her original intention. Seeing Dong Shan’s dull situation today, in a sense, she seemed to see Chi Yan. When she took care of Dong Shan, some of her emotions were similar to Chi Yan.
They are both victims of the Jorian incident, and Chi Yue has empathy.
Moreover, what does Dong Shan need to please?
After Qiao Zhengchong left that day, he never came to the hospital again, and so did Qiao Dongyang.
In the Qiao family, Dong Shan is now an embarrassing existence.
Chi Yue felt sympathy in her heart, but she did not show it on her face. She had experience in taking care of Chi Yan and knew very well that they needed respect from the bottom of her heart. The essence of respect is not to treat them as victims, not to sympathize with or watch their wounds—
Chi Yue lived in Dong Shan's small house before marriage for a while, and was familiar with the environment here. When she came back, she felt like she was revisiting the old place, which was very warm. She helped Dong Shan sit on the sand and went to rummage through the refrigerator herself, "Aunt Dong, what are we eating today? Do you have anything you particularly want to eat? No doctor cares about you, I will help you make it."
She turned around and blinked at Dong Shan.
After washing his stomach in the hospital, Dong Shan rested for three days, but she still needed to nourish her stomach.
When she was discharged from the hospital, she was strictly ordered by the doctor.
Unexpectedly Chi Yue would say this, Dong Shan was stunned for a moment and suddenly burst into laughter.
"Yueyue, it would be great if you were my daughter."
Chi Yue held the corner of her lips and smiled like a blooming sunflower, "Then do you think of me as your daughter?"
Dong Shan looked at her gently, and wrinkles appeared in the corners of her eyes, "Don't worry. I don't have much appetite. If you want to eat, just make something. You are a young man, and you should live a more casual life without taking care of the emotions of me, an elderly person."
"Aunt Dong, what are you kidding? Where are you old?" Chi Yue widened her eyes, as if she had heard a joke, and said with a smile: "I have never seen an aunt who is so well-maintained as you are. Don't say depressed words, we are beautiful, don't say old."
When Chi Yue is serious about coaxing people, she can also be playful and cute.
Dong Shan was so amused by her that she became serious and frowned, "Don't you have to accompany Dongzi tonight?"
"He?" Chi Yue smiled and shook her head, "He is very busy and doesn't need me to accompany you."
"Nonsense." Dong Shan glared at her with a angrily look.
She knew that she was an unpopular person in Qiao Dongyang, and she didn't want Chi Yue to affect her relationship with Qiao Dongyang because she came to accompany her. She said with great sincerity: "Yueyue, I know you are a good girl, but Aunt Dong is really fine. I can take good care of myself and don't need you to accompany me... Obedient! Go back to accompany Dongzi. Sometimes men are very slim. Make some delicious food for him and talk to him. The child is so cold and warm that he is so coaxed."
Chi Yue pursed her lips, "Where is the best place to coax?"
Dong Shan smiled with a deep look, "Dongzi is a lonely child, you have a great weight in his heart. At this critical moment, he needs someone to accompany me more than my old bones."
"Qiao Dongyang is thick in skin..."
Before he finished speaking, Dong Shan's phone rang.
Chi Yue shut up at the right time, Dong Shan smiled and took up the phone on the coffee table.
She looked down and frowned, her smile dissipated in a second, her eyes full of gloom "Hey!"
"Dong Shan——" Qiao Zhengchong's voice was loud and his loud voice was exaggerated. Chi Yue could hear it even while sitting next to him, "Why don't you tell me if you are discharged from the hospital?"
Dong Shan's brows sank again, "Aren't you busy?"
Qiao Zhengchong snorted, his tone was not good, and seemed very unhappy, "I can't be so busy that I don't have time, right? Where have you been? Where are you now?"
He was used to speaking from his own perspective and using imperative sentences to her. He never examined whether his tone was not respectful enough. But Dong Shan was an individual and a human being able to express her warmth. In Qiao Zhengchong's aggressive questioning, her expression became more ugly.
"I am at home."
"Home? Which home?" Qiao Zhengchong's tone was very irritating, obviously he knew that she was no longer in their home.
"My own home." Dong Shan spoke very slowly, spoke clearly, and when she said "I", her tone was still heavy.
Qiao Zhengchong didn't say anything for a while.
Even the slowest person can tell what she means at this time.
Qiao Zhengchong was a little surprised by Dong Shan’s approach, but he was used to Dong Shan’s unilateral efforts and pleasing. When everything became natural, his emotional consciousness had long been numb, and it was difficult to re-understand himself and examine each other’s positioning.
His pride was not satisfied, he was neither face nor angry and hated, and his voice became higher and higher.
"What do you mean?"
Dong Shan was silent.
Qiao Zhengchong's voice was like a low-pitched cannon, heavy and terrifying. She was tense for a moment, and was afraid of him in a conditioned reflex, and dared not refute-
After a while, she sighed in the near-fixed time.
"Zheng Chong, I'm a little tired. I want to rest."
"I'm asking you, what does it mean to live back?"
His tone was very fierce, and he was a typical parent-style communication method of "husband is the sky". He treated his wife as a subordinate of his territory, rather than an equal partner. Dong Shan lived with him for nearly twenty years, and of course he knew what kind of temper he had, and he knew what kind of thunder and anger would appear there if he continued to talk about it.
However, after dying once, she took a lot of things lightly.
If you are not afraid of death, what else are you afraid of?
Dong Shan smiled faintly, covered the microphone, glanced at Chi Yue embarrassedly, and whispered: "I don't mean anything, Zheng Chong, I just want to be alone."
"Stay alone? Humph, do you dislike me when you speak?"
"No. I just... just want to find myself and be the real myself..."
"The real self?" Qiao Zhengchong sneered, "Dong Shan, it turns out that you have not been the real self in the past few years of marriage to the Qiao family? Did I treat you badly, or did you marry me and make you wronged?"
“…”
One question is more ruthless than another.
Dong Shan's heart thumped.
Over the years, she has never had the courage to face Hard Steel with Qiao Zhengchong.
"No." Dong Shan hesitated, his voice was soft, but insisted, "I don't feel wronged, I'm responsible for everything. I can't blame anyone, and I don't blame anyone."
"So, am I not good to you?"
"..." Dong Shan was speechless.
Strictly speaking, Qiao Zhengchong was not particularly bad to her. As he said, he never treated her food, clothing, and money, but she didn't want these things. People's emotions are wonderful and complicated. They will not suddenly die because of a big event, but will accumulate into irreparable injuries after saving up all the disappointments.
"Zheng Chong, you are very good, I... I have no blessing. I don't blame you, but I am an individual, and I have an opinion on my marriage. Please don't force me to ask me again, okay?"
Qiao Zhengchong had never heard Dong Shan speak to him in such a tone, with such a tough attitude.
He was about to get mad at the other end of the phone, and his voice was louder and louder, "Dong Shan, I don't want to hear you say this. I once warned you that I don't like pretentious women. You have done a good job over the years. Now we have to say whatever we say, you don't need to show it to me. If there is anything wrong with me, you can say it..."
"You're nothing wrong." Dong Shan's ears buzzed, and her expression was impatient.
If Chi Yue hadn't been by her side, she would have had to save Qiao Zhengchong some face, so she would have hung up long ago.
She admired Qiao Zhengchong for nearly twenty years, and listened to his lessons for nearly twenty years, which was enough.
Enough!
"Zheng Chong, the former Dong Shan died. He died of taking medicine." Dong Shan calmly told the change, and then sincerely apologized to him.
"I'm sorry, I didn't do what I promised you and didn't take good care of Dongzi. At such a critical moment, I shouldn't make things difficult for you father and son. However, my strength is too small. I'm not Dongzi's mother. I don't want to take a look at him. I can't do anything in front of me. What I can do now is to live quietly in my own space without causing trouble for you. Just go to old age and die, and look for some life that has been delayed by fate..."
"A life delayed by fate?" Qiao Zhengchong asked back and sneered, "Dong Shan, I can't stand the literary and artistic lyrics of you the most. Just tell me, what have you delayed? I'll help you find it back."
A layer of mist floated in Dong Shan's eyes.
He studied engineering, and she studied art.
Before marriage, he said that he liked the literary and gentle temperament of her, which made people feel down-to-earth and warm. With her by her side, it suddenly seemed like there was another home. Now, he said that this is what he couldn't stand the most.
Dong Shan choked in her throat and said slowly: "I want to draw."
"Ha!" Qiao Zhengchong seemed to be amused by her statement, "I want to draw? Is this the reason why you left home? Is there no place for the Qiao family to draw for you?"
Dong Shan's eyes were red, and tears were a little too much to cover her. She rubbed her eyes and refused to cry, but her voice was crying, "Yes. There is no place for the Qiao family to draw."
"What the hell do you want to say?" Qiao Zhengchong almost yelled.
Dong Shan chuckled in her heart, "Zheng Chong, we are not all the people, just like you will never understand why the Qiao family has no place to draw. I don't understand why your heart is so hard. It's time to keep a stone warm in twenty years."
"What do you need? Where do you need?"
"That's not a place. It's the heart, the peace, the power to live."
“???”
There was no sound in the microphone.
Dong Shan can imagine Qiao Zhengchong's current expression.
He won't understand. He will never understand her.
But...she doesn't care anymore.
"Let's do it." Dong Shan sighed, "You've been busy lately, so I won't disturb you anymore. When you have time, we'll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get the marriage and divorce. In this way, you and I will be free."
