"My baby is the best! You will always be the best baby in my mother's heart!"
Du Jing happily hugged her daughter and spun around.
"Well! Mom, Qianqian wants to show the certificate to her grandparents to make them happy too!"
My daughter cleverly folded the certificate with her little hands and put it back into her pocket.
"this……"
Du Jing was speechless.
Looking at Zhang Haidong's smiling expression, Du Jing knew that her daughter must have told Zhang Haidong.
He should have refused!
So she whispered: "Baby, mom and dad are very busy at work, and they may not have time to accompany you back to your grandparents' house. Otherwise, wait until we celebrate the New Year, and then we will buy a beautiful big house, and my parents will take care of them."
Would you like to go back to your hometown to visit your grandparents? Then your grandparents can live in a big house with us!"
"But dad has promised Qianqian to go home to see her grandparents in a few days! Mom, you should go back too!"
Qianqian said in a sweet voice.
"?"
Did Zhang Haidong agree?
It was not that Du Jing was unaware of the situation at home, she cast her eyes doubtfully on Zhang Haidong at the dinner table.
Zhang Haidong just nodded lightly.
"Okay! Then dad and mom will take you back to see your grandparents, okay?"
"Okay! You can see your grandparents now! If they know that Qianqian has won the certificate, they will be very happy!"
My daughter clapped her hands and said with a smile.
"Okay, honey, sit on the table and eat the food your daddy made."
Du Jing placed her daughter in her arms on the dining table.
After the family finished eating quietly, Zhang Haidong went into the kitchen to wash the dishes.
Du Jing washed herself and got into bed early.
When Zhang Haidong opened the door and came in, she jumped out of bed, hugged Zhang Haidong's neck and kissed him hard.
Zhang Haidong seemed to be evading, and asked softly: "Honey, are you tired? There are so many people this morning."
Although it is New Year's Day, there are many people working to earn three times their salary.
He saw Du Jing's hard work early in the morning.
"It's okay, hubby. I'm not tired at all. Sister Zhang even brought me a portion of fish-flavored shredded pork at noon! It's delicious! As for you, in addition to attending the company cocktail party today, you also took our baby to the zoo.
Just a trip, come up and have a rest!"
Du Jing said, patting the side of the quilt gently.
She didn't feel Zhang Haidong's vague escape.
Speaking of the cocktail party, Zhang Haidong was startled again.
But he immediately concealed the discomfort, and then said softly: "It's okay, I just went to the company to have something to eat, and drank a few glasses of wine with the leaders, but I didn't get drunk. Then I took my daughter to the zoo to play,
After all, I promised her before, so I can't break my promise. In fact, I'm not tired, I just need to think about some issues first. If you are tired, just lie down and rest for a while, wife."
Zhang Haidong said softly.
He erased the part about going to Du Xiaoyin's house.
The escape just now actually stems from this concern.
"Are you worried about taking the child home to see her grandparents? Husband."
Du Jing said, lowering her eyelids.
Back then, Zhang Haidong gambled and borrowed an unknown amount of foreign debt. Relatives and debt collectors came to visit, and the family was in a state of unrest.
Zhang Youfu gritted his teeth and drove Zhang Haidong's family out and let them live on their own.
Although the father-in-law seemed to be a bit cruel on the surface, in fact, before leaving, the father-in-law and the mother-in-law still stuffed thousands of dollars into the young couple. Otherwise, the whole family would be kicked out and they would not even have a doghouse.
Can't even live there.
Of course, in addition to gambling, Zhang Haidong also had an affair...
Thinking of this, Du Jing felt a faint pain in her heart.
That is the only scar in her heart.
…
In the past few years, Zhang Haidong has made no progress and only drinks and gets drunk all day long.
I never contacted my family again.
I don't even know if the old couple is doing well.
It was this year, after knowing that his daughter was going to school, Zhang Haidong began to make a big change and started to work really hard.
Du Jing was moved by her hard work and persistence.
Maybe this is father's love. His daughter inspired the father's love in Zhang Haidong's heart.
But……
This effort seems a bit late.
Even though I have tried my best to pay off the debt, I still owe money to Liu Shan.
Not to mention at home.
There has been no contact in the past few years. Can the father-in-law and mother-in-law really forgive Zhang Haidong?
It’s so difficult!
…
This is not what Zhang Haidong has in mind.
But seeing Du Jing ask this, he subconsciously picked up the words and nodded: "Yes, I am indeed thinking about this matter. I think about how to take Qianqian back so as not to conflict with her parents. The child is really
Missing his grandparents."
"..."
I was really thinking about this!
Du Jing moved her mouth, and then said after a long time: "But in the past few years, we have not made any progress. We still live in this kind of place..."
At this point, she paused.
The meaning couldn't be more obvious.
The mistakes Zhang Haidong made back then were enough for his parents to kick him out of the house.
If there are no earth-shattering changes, how can it be easily accepted?
I'm afraid I'll be beaten out if I go back.
"What I mean is that when our place becomes more stable and has a better environment, we can take Qianqian back. Then we will admit our mistakes to our parents, and they will not reject us ruthlessly..."
Du Jing said.
Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Zhang Haidong.
"I've thought about it too. Maybe my parents were too disappointed with me back then! Or maybe they loved Qianqian so much that they let their child remember it from her subconscious until now. If she doesn't talk back, she will be very sad. So today
In the afternoon, I agreed to her request."
Zhang Haidong subconsciously put his daughter first.
This made Du Jing feel very warm.
Then Zhang Haidong said: "Actually, this is my plan. Now Liu Shan's debt has almost been paid off. My salary is 8,000 yuan a month. I will join the new branch in May after I finish. My salary can still be paid."
Rise again.
Anyway, it’s going to be a good time!
Isn't the good life of buying a big house and bringing my parents over here just around the corner?
So when the time comes, let’s buy some good gifts and go back, and you can also talk about my changes in a subtle way. With my daughter present, my parents shouldn’t kick me out!
It not only satisfied the daughter's wish, but also made the old couple happy.
Wouldn’t it kill two birds with one stone?”
What he said was very reasonable, and Du Jing nodded repeatedly.
"That's true."
"but……"
"Hey, by the way. Husband, how much salary did you pay today? Is it almost enough?"
Du Jing then remembered what Zhang Haidong said just now.
"Sixty-seven thousand."
"What! So many!"
Du Jing's eyes widened in disbelief.
She could think of Zhang Haidong making money, but she really didn't expect him to make so much money!
At this speed, this family's journey to prosperity will be as fast as taking the high-speed rail!
"Don't be surprised. The boss added the commissions and bonuses from the Christmas activities. That's a lot of money in total. I went to repay Bai Yourong 65,000 yuan. In addition to the 30,000 yuan I paid back before, I have already paid back 90,000 yuan."
It's 50,000 yuan, and only the last 5,000 yuan of debt is left. Once the salary is paid next month, the foreign debt will be completely paid off. Isn't this a great hope? By the summer, we should be able to move into our own house.
Gone to the new nest."
Zhang Haidong said and handed the remaining two thousand yuan to Du Jing.
From rebirth to now.
From a pile of debt to only 5,000 in foreign debt.
He finally saw the hope and sunshine of getting ahead. This small family could live a good life.
This was also the reason why he dared to promise his daughter to go home.
"Husband, you are so awesome!"
Du Jing looked at the money in her hand, as if she had fallen into a honey pot, and smiled from ear to ear.
She got up from the bed, hugged Zhang Haidong and kissed him fiercely.
She was not confident about going home at first, but upon hearing the news, she was immediately full of confidence again.
Seeing Zhang Haidong's earth-shaking changes and hope, the old couple couldn't help but laugh out loud?
"Then when will we go back? Years ago?"
Du Jing asked again.
"About that, just a year ago. I was thinking that if it's not safe enough, we should first find an acquaintance to help us take a look and talk to the old man. Then we can take our daughter back. This should have a higher success rate."
Zhang Haidong said
"Okay, you decide."
Du Jing nodded.
"Okay, let me think carefully about what to do. You have been tired for a day, so go to bed first, wife. I will come up and sleep after I finish thinking about things."
Zhang Haidong said and gently tapped Du Jing's forehead.
A dragonfly touches the water.
"Well. Then remember to go to bed early. You have to go to work tomorrow, husband."
Du Jing then responded and lay down on the bed holding the small coin.
Soon, Du Jing heard a slight snore after a tiring day.
Zhang Haidong gently covered her with the low quilt, and then turned off the light.
Under the moonlight, he quietly looked at Du Jing sleeping soundly on the bed.
Darkness may be able to hide part of one's thoughts.
In fact, he had no intention of taking his daughter home just now.
Instead, he kept thinking about what happened at Du Xiaoyin's house.
There were still vague water stains on his chest, which were the tears that Du Xiaoyin shed on his chest.
He didn't want to wash it off.
Some even avoided Du Jing's touch.
Du Xiaoyin was innocent and innocent, and his eyes were always pure and pure. That kind of joy, like a deer, made Zhang Haidong's heart beat involuntarily.
And what about Du Jing?
Gentle and kind, it can be said that she is a model representative of a good wife and mother. For the sake of her daughter and family, she is willing to swallow no matter how great the grievances and sufferings are.
No regrets.
No complaints.
But I always feel that there seems to be something missing in Du Jing's character, something that would make her even more excited.
Is it naive?
Still cute?
Zhang Haidong couldn't tell either.
He just unconsciously compared Du Xiaoyin and Du Jing together.
I don’t know how long it took, but I still don’t have a clue.
He lit a cigarette impatiently and started smoking.
The slight smoke soothed the irritability in his heart.
He began to think seriously.
Was he also so entangled in the reason why he had an affair back then?
