Guan Shouheng knew that dropping out of school was a very bad thing for Mint, so he had to do his best to compensate her.
Her young body, suffering from pregnancy and an overloaded belly, made it impossible for her to go to school, but she could continue to study at home.
He specially bought a recording pen and secretly put it into the French classroom every day. After the teacher finished the class and the students had left, he secretly took the recording pen back so that she could listen to the recording at home.
He also practiced speaking with her as much as possible, because he knew very well that the more you practice speaking, the more familiar it becomes. Once it is wasted, it will be difficult to pick it up again, and the sense of language and other things will be affected.
He put a lot of effort into taking care of her and being considerate to her, because the hardships she endured were all because of him.
But as her belly grew bigger and bigger, so did his pressure. He alone had to be responsible for all the family expenses, tuition, living expenses, mother's medical expenses, the cost of her prenatal check-up, and the cost of new items added to the house.
etc.
His few savings and the money he earned from working every day have been spent very little. Although they can still make a living now, he can't continue like this. He can't just make money by being a waiter, because
That's far from enough.
In a few months, the baby will be born. When he accompanied her for a prenatal check-up, he heard someone say that most pregnant women now have caesarean section, but that would inevitably increase the cost of surgery, and some doctors are very powerful.
Before a pregnant woman enters the operating room, her family must give some red envelopes to the doctor and anesthesiologist. Therefore, he must start saving money from now on, because it is impossible to predict whether she will have dystocia, and he cannot let her have any risk.
, and after the baby is born, milk powder, diapers, and other baby expenses all cost money.
More importantly, he cannot let his wife and children live in such a small attic forever. Although he is not yet able to change to a better house, he must at least make progress every day and see hope.
"Mint, I contacted a travel agency job today and I'm going out at night. Is it okay for you to stay home alone?"
"Are you going to pick up a group?" She knew very well what kind of job it was. There were many travel agencies that received foreign tour groups and needed translators. The salary would be higher than being a waiter, but it would also be more difficult, because translating requires a lot of work.
Accompanying the group throughout the entire trip, no matter what time or place, as long as tourists need it, the translator must answer questions at any time.
"Well, it's a European group tour with tourists from several countries. The translator is required to speak several foreign languages, so the salary will be doubled."
Mint knew he had to go, so he couldn't stop him, "Okay, but you must pay attention to safety outside. It's night after all."
"You too, you have to be extra careful when you are alone at home, be careful when walking, don't fall, don't go out, and don't open anyone's door." He warned her one by one, feeling very uneasy.
"I understand." She nodded heavily.
Then he felt relieved and kissed her cheek, then her belly, and even gave Xiaobai a few words before reluctantly going out.
As soon as the door closed, only Mint was left in the room. She was lying alone on their bed. She lost his arms for the first time since they got married, and the boundless loneliness and helplessness filled the sky.
