After the divorce, I became a rich girl
Chapter 8 Ordinary
Li Jiawei walked to the bus stop and caught the last bus. There were not many passengers on the bus, and there were only five people on the bus including the bus driver. She found a seat and sat down. Only then did she have time to take out her phone to check. There were no missed calls. On WeChat, apart from dozens of product information in the shopping group, there were two inspirational WeChat messages from her father Li Jianguo.
Li Jiawei looked at the content above. One of them reads, "Life is not afraid of being dull, happiness is brilliant. Family and friends no longer gather and separate, and frequent greetings are warm. Caring for each other and helping each other to be safe is the best way to meet." Another one reads, "The companionship of the soul, even if we don't meet, is also happy! The blessings across the screen, although silent, are also warm! Repeated greetings are a concern and also a way to report each other's safety."
This is Comrade Li Jianguo's habit. He sends her two such WeChat messages every morning, and they are never the same. I really don't know where he found the copy and paste ones.
Li Jiawei smiled and replied, "A word of peace, a deep heart, cherish each other on the road of life, take care of your body, health comes first."
Less than a minute after the WeChat message was sent, Comrade Li Jianguo immediately sent a voice message back: "Why did you reply so late? Are you busy today? Have you had dinner?"
Li Jiawei looked at the traffic outside the car window and sent a voice message, "Dad, I've had dinner. I've been collecting statistics all day and have no time to look at my phone. Have you had dinner? What did you eat?"
Li Jianguo quickly replied, "Your brother and sister-in-law are on a diet, so they bought hamburgers for the two children. Your mother and I had some cold dishes for dinner. Weiwei, I'm telling you, you can't lose weight. You're not in good health. You must eat dinner on time."
Li Jiawei listened to her father's reply and felt warm in her heart. "I know, I'm eating on time."
It is a bit exaggerated to say that Li Jiawei is in poor health. She is just anemic, especially when she was diagnosed with moderate anemia in junior high school, which made her mother particularly worried. Therefore, when she was in junior high school, her mother made various meat and bone soups for her to nourish her body. Although her anemia improved a lot, her weight also went up. From high school to now, she has maintained a weight of about 71 or 72 kilograms. It's not that she didn't try to lose weight, but she failed despite her parents' repeated consolations of "you are not fat" and "you are thin".
"How is Zhang Yi? He hasn't called for a long time. Are you guys doing well?" Li Jianguo asked on WeChat.
Li Jiawei listened to the WeChat message her father sent, hesitated for a moment, and then replied, "It's fine. The company sent him on a business trip. He's very busy. I'll ask him to call you when he's done with this."
"As long as you're fine, there's no need to call. As long as you're fine, that's enough. Take care of yourself." Li Jianguo replied.
"Okay, I know. Dad, it's almost eleven o'clock. Stop playing with your phone and go to bed." Li Jiawei advised.
"Okay, let's stop playing and go to sleep! You should go to bed early too," Li Jianguo replied quickly.
Li Jiawei returned home, washed up briefly, and fell on the bed. Only then did she feel the pain and fatigue all over her body. However, thinking that tomorrow was the weekend and she could sleep until she woke up naturally, she relaxed a little and fell asleep without even changing her clothes.
Li Jiawei woke up in the morning light, and lying on the bed, staring at the golden sunlight shining through the gauze of the curtains, a sense of peace and tranquility surged in her heart. She hadn't experienced this state of waking up naturally in the morning sun for a long time.
After marrying Zhang Yi, she lived with his parents. Zhang Yi's mother always got up at six o'clock, no matter whether it was summer or winter or a holiday, and either went to square dance or sat in the living room doing nothing.
Whenever Zhang's mother woke up, she would always call Li Jiawei to get up and ask her to prepare breakfast for the family, or to match and iron clothes for Zhang Yi to wear that day. This happened every day, year after year.
But after they leave home for work, Zhang's mother can still enjoy a nap, but Li Jiawei can only drag her tired body to work.
Now, Li Jiawei has withdrawn from her marriage with Zhang Yi. Looking back on her life in the past few years, she realized that she was blinded by her self-righteous "love" and became the Zhang family's free nanny. No, it can even be said that she is not even as good as a nanny.
The nanny could still get paid, but she had to use her own salary to support them. All their food and drinks were bought by her with her own salary, but Zhang Yi never gave her any financial support.
Li Jiawei often reflects that one of the important reasons why she can't lose weight is probably the huge pressure from work and life. When people are extremely tired, they always tend to use food with heavy oil and seasoning to temporarily numb their senses and obtain temporary satisfaction and happiness.
Li Jiawei tossed and turned in bed until she could no longer lie down, then she slowly got up. She opened the refrigerator, took out a pack of frozen dumplings, and cooked ten for breakfast.
Dumplings are undoubtedly the best companion for busy office workers. If you don’t care about the taste, quick-frozen dumplings are economical and convenient; if you pursue the taste, you can make them yourself, wrap one or two hundred at a time, put them in the refrigerator, and cook them whenever you want. They are delicious and convenient.
After the dumplings were cooked, Li Jiawei tasted one and felt that the taste of the frozen dumplings was inferior to the ones she made herself. So she planned to go to the vegetable market at noon to buy some fresh meat and vegetables, make more dumplings by herself, and freeze them in the refrigerator.
At noon, Li Jiawei went to the market and bought four pounds of meat. She asked the stall owner to make the meat into stuffing, and then bought a large cabbage. After returning home, she mixed the stuffing, kneaded the dough, and rolled out the dough. On the table was an iPad playing her favorite TV series. Under her hands, the dumpling skins turned into chubby little ingots.
When Li Jiawei put the last batch of dumplings into the refrigerator, she looked at the frozen bags of dumplings and felt a sense of satisfaction and happiness. In fact, isn't it what most people pursue to have such a plain and leisurely life after work?
However, she felt suffocated in her marriage with Zhang Yi. What did she get in these years? She gradually lost herself, and had to give and sacrifice endlessly. If Zhang Yi's cheating hadn't woken her up, she would have been immersed in the self-admiration of marriage.
Now, Li Jiawei has finally gotten rid of that painful past and escaped from the sea of suffering. But thinking about Zhang Yi's upcoming marriage to Huang Keren, with Zhang Yi's family's skill in manipulating people's hearts, I wonder if Huang Keren can withstand Zhang's mother's harshness, Zhang's father's hypocrisy, and Zhang Yi's coldness.
As for Huang Keren's dream of spending a sweet life with Zhang Yi, Li Jiawei could only sneer. With parents like Zhang's father and mother who put their son above everything else, she could just dream on.
