There was only a tattered square table and a small brick bed. On the brick bed, there was a three or four year old boy with dirty face looking at her timidly. He felt like he had nothing valuable at all.
Zhan Xiaolou looked at Lu Yi. He was simply too foolish. No matter what world it was, there would always be people who were heartless. There were also people who would foolishly give up their last bit of regret.
After checking Lu Yi's pulse, Zhan Xiaolou said, "Originally, your body was very weak after you gave birth to your child. I don't think you usually even have a full stomach, right?"
Lu Yi didn't say anything, but Zhan Xiaolou and Auntie Lu both knew that this was the case.
"Your body needs to be properly replenished with nourishment. Moreover, this house is too cold. It will be extremely disadvantageous for both you and the child." Zhan Xiaolou continued.
"Of course I know." "What can I do? This is the path that I have chosen myself. I will walk it all by myself. "
"You!" Aunt Lu slammed her hand on the table and looked at Lu Yi resentfully. "Haven't you regretted it yet?" "It's too late for you to regret it now. You're still young …"
"I don't regret it. Why should I regret it?" Lu Yi raised his stubborn face to look at his mother and forcefully retracted the tears in his eyes.
Zhan Xiaolou could tell from his anger that he was already regretting it. However, he had chosen this path himself. He couldn't say that he was regretting it now as he was afraid of being ridiculed and being ridiculed.
Aunt Lu wanted to say something else, but Zhan Xiaolou waved her hand and told her not to.
What other people say is true, how you live your life and how you live it is up to you. For face, to tell others that your choice is correct, why did you suffer so much? People only have one life, and if you continue to live here, your life won't be long. Zhan Xiaolou earnestly tried to persuade him.
But no matter what he said, Lu Yi remained resigned to his fate and remained indifferent.
At this moment, the people waiting outside the restaurant started to shout. It was about time to go back.
Just as Lu Yi stood up and called out to his mother, Lu Yi was startled. Lu Yi turned around to grab onto Lu Yi's hand, but Lu Yi dodged his call.
"Mother, lend …" Can you lend me some money? " Lu Yi lowered his head, unable to see his expression. His voice could be heard, and he was extremely conflicted. He had said it after much consideration.
Auntie Lu's expression turned ugly. She had thought that he had figured it out, but it turns out he was borrowing money to squander his useless wife!
Aunt Lu pointed her index finger at Lu Yi and opened her mouth to say something.
"What are you scolding me for now? I'm already like this, I've already fallen into the mud and can't get out. What's the use of scolding me? Other than scolding, what else do you know? " Lu Yi yelled at Aunt Lu with a hoarse voice.
Auntie Lu froze in place, but in the end, she did not say a word. She placed the few tens of coins she had earned from selling the firewood on the table and said to Lou Cheng, "Lou, it's been hard on you. Let's go."
The pain and helplessness in those words stung Zhan Xiaolou's heart.
Long ago, her father had objected and scolded her because of her and Gu Ze. She had also argued with her father and said some terrible things. In the end, her father had helplessly waved his hand and let her go …
At that time, she didn't understand her father's intentions. She only felt that he didn't understand her and wouldn't listen to her advice … Later on, it turned out that her father was right. However, she didn't have the chance to thank her father in person and apologize …
