Chapter 49 Duoduo Misses Dad
It was already 5:15 when Xiaoyu got home, and Ke Yongxin hadn't come back yet. She took out her cell phone and prepared to call him to ask when he would be back for dinner.
At this time, Duoduo, who was half asleep, began to cry. Seeing that her mother did not comfort her, but took out her cell phone to make a call, the little girl stretched out her little hand and slapped Xiaoyu's cell phone away in annoyance.
With a snap, the phone fell to the ground. When she bent down to pick it up, Ke Yongxin's message came.
He said that his father asked him and his brother to go back to the old house for dinner and they would not return to Longwan tonight.
She looked at the broken phone, then at the crying child hanging around her neck. Her heart felt like it was cut by a knife, and she burst into tears.
"Don't cry, Duoduo. Mommy will make dumplings for you."
The mother and daughter squatted on the ground and cried for a while. The mother adjusted her mood, wiped away her tears, patted her daughter's back, and choked with sobs.
The daughter was hungry, but normally she wouldn’t cry so sadly when she was hungry. What happened between the mother and daughter today?
She had no mood to cook, nor did she want to eat. After feeding her daughter, the mother and daughter went to the study together.
She took out two children's picture books from the bookshelf and threw them in front of Duoduo, and then she opened the book she had been reading these days.
As usual, she read carefully, page by page, word by word. Half an hour passed, but she had no idea what the dozen pages she had turned over were about.
She closed the book, looked up at the night sky outside the window, and asked herself: "Xia Xiaoyu, what happened to you today?"
She stood up and walked around the room. Gradually, she felt as if she was suspended in space, with darkness and emptiness all around her.
She stretched out her hand, but could not touch anything. Her daughter, who was sitting on the carpet, was getting smaller and smaller...
"Daddy, I want daddy..." The child's crying brought her back to reality.
She saw her daughter sitting on the carpet crying sadly, with the picture book thrown aside.
"Duoduo misses her daddy?" She squatted down, hugged her daughter, and a wave of self-blame surged in her heart.
"Dad, Dad..." Duoduo continued crying without being comforted.
It has been almost twenty days since the incident at the Children's Park, and Zhai Jian has not visited his daughter, not even a single phone call to inquire about her.
She suddenly wondered if this man's love for her daughter was just fake.
Although they are divorced, she doesn't want her daughter to lose her father's love because of their divorce. What should she do? She can't just call her ex-husband and beg him to come and see the child.
In the past twenty days or so, my daughter has mentioned her father more than once.
But she just said it once, and when no one responded to her, she went back to play. Only this time did the little one cry so sadly.
She hugged her daughter tightly and gently stroked the little girl's hair. At this moment, she wished Ke Yongxin could be by her side and hug Duoduo.
Can he replace Zhai Jian in loving Duoduo?
"Ding-ling-ling..." The phone rang quickly. She picked up the phone and saw that it was her ex-mother-in-law calling.
"Xiaoyu, is Duoduo here with you?" asked the old lady.
"Well, Duoduo, your grandma." She put the phone next to her daughter's ear.
"Dad, I want Dad." Duoduo ignored her grandmother on the phone and continued to call Dad. She really missed her dad so much.
"Who bullied our little darling? Duoduo, it's grandma. Can I pick you up tomorrow? Your brother misses you, and grandpa and I miss you too." The old lady called her granddaughter kindly.
Xiaoyu was a little surprised by the gentle words. When they got married, her mother-in-law said that she would not help them take care of the children.
She said that taking care of Zhai Jian and his brother was enough for her. Now that she finally made it to retirement, she wanted to enjoy life, travel around and have fun.
Zhai Jian's sister Zhai Hui had a son as her first child. Her in-laws treated him like a baby and didn't let her mother worry at all.
Old Mrs. Zhai had some free time, and she did travel to many places with tour groups during those years.
When Xiaoyu asked her mother-in-law why she didn't travel with her father-in-law, her mother-in-law said that her father-in-law hadn't retired yet and didn't have much free time.
Later, Xiaoyu found out that her mother-in-law liked lively atmosphere while her father-in-law liked quietness, and the old couple could never play together.
In the two years since Duoduo was born, grandma never took the initiative to pick up her granddaughter to play. Today's move was really unexpected.
Xiaoyu guessed correctly, it was indeed Zhai Hui's seven-year-old son who said he missed Duoduo and cried and wanted to play with his sister. Otherwise, why would the ex-mother-in-law call so late at night?
"Xiao Yu, we will pick up Duoduo early tomorrow morning and send her back to you in the evening or Monday morning. Is that okay with you?" asked the ex-mother-in-law politely.
"Well, then you guys come to the entrance of Longwan International at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. Call me when you are almost there and I will carry Duoduo down." Xiaoyu also said politely.
"Longwan International? Which Longwan International?" The old lady asked with some surprise.
"It's the real estate project where I worked before. Zhai Jian knows about it." Xiaoyu said lightly.
"I thought you lived with your father. It would be more convenient for you to rent a house on your own." The old lady gossiped.
"Didn't Zhai Jian tell you? I'm married." Xiaoyu said lightly.
"You're getting married? Isn't that a bit too fast?" The old lady was really shocked this time.
"Compared to your son's speed, it's still much slower. I'll hang up if there's nothing else." Xiaoyu said coldly.
After hanging up the phone, it was already eight o'clock and Xiaoyu felt a little hungry. She gently patted Duoduo, who was lying on her shoulder and sobbing softly.
"Duoduo, be good and play in the study by yourself. Mommy is hungry. Let's go to the kitchen to get something to eat, okay?" She asked her daughter's opinion in a soft voice.
But the little girl held her neck tightly and refused to let go, so she had no choice but to carry her daughter into the kitchen.
In the past twenty days, she has strictly followed Ke Yongxin's method to lose weight and has lost five or six pounds. Should we make an exception tonight?
As she thought about it, she opened the refrigerator and blanched a few prawns and some vegetables. That should be fine, right?
After eating the prawns and Chinese cabbage, she felt much better. As expected, delicious food can make people happy.
I have a lovely daughter, a father and sister who love me, a sum of money in my pocket that is not a huge sum, but not too small either, and I will have a good job in a few months.
I live in a big house with no rent to pay, and I have such a handsome roommate as my neighbor. I also have a good salary and household allowance every month.
When you divorce, you might be able to get half of the property.
Xia Xiaoyu, you still have the nerve to cry. Think about the homeless people, the single mothers who are worried about their lives, and those...
Well, just be happy. If you cry again, I will be ashamed of you.
Doesn't the real money in your hands give you a greater sense of security than the ethereal love?
Your roommate is already 30 years old and has not found a woman he wants to marry. Don't you want him to find someone he loves, get married and have children soon?
If he could marry the wealthy Miss Ke'er here today, maybe he would be so happy that he would give this house to you and your daughter to live in.
Okay, okay, your current task is to concentrate on losing weight and greet the new job with a new mental outlook.
Make money well and raise Duoduo into an adult. This is what you should do.
