Chapter 307: Human hearts are fickle

Lu Qiao hurried forward to support Wei Xia and asked: "Are you not feeling well? Should we take you to the hospital?"

Wei Xia's face was ashen, her eyes had no spirit, and she muttered in a low voice: "No, I'm not going."

Sister Qiao asked patiently: "Why not? Is it because you don't have money? Don't worry, our neighborhood office has hardship subsidies, and medical expenses will be reduced or exempted."

Wei Xia looked at Lu Qiao and Sister Qiao.

They were cadres from the neighborhood office.

Both of them were present when she was tricked into divorce last time.

Wei Xia lowered her head and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm not going. He is hoping for me to die, so I will die for him to see. If I die, I want to see if he dares not to take care of these four children?"

Officer Liu's expression was serious: "What exactly is the situation? Tell us properly."

Auntie Han on the side said anxiously: "The neighborhood cadres are here, tell us what you're thinking."

Wei Xia still didn't make a sound.

At the beginning, Lu Qiao discovered that Wei Xia's personality was actually the personality of many women at the time.

Taking the husband as heaven, having no opinions of her own, and after getting married, holding the idea of being faithful to one person and living together until old age.

But then again, is there a problem with thinking this way?

Who doesn't get married aiming for a lifetime?

But human hearts are fickle.

Not to mention that if a woman has feelings for a man, after her "love brain" kicks in, she really might not even want her life.

She even thinks that if she dies, the other party will feel sad and painful.

But little does she know, if you die, he might breathe a sigh of relief, or even happily drink a glass of wine to celebrate.

At the same time, regardless of the woman's psychology, if she doesn't dare or doesn't want to find trouble with the man, she will generally vent her anger on the children.

She even thinks it's all because the children are not liked by the husband, otherwise how could he be so heartless as to ignore them?

Although Lu Qiao felt Wei Xia was too spineless, Auntie Han had already found Director Hu, so this matter must be resolved.

She looked at Sister Qiao, and for people like Wei Xia, they could only be soft first and then hard now.

Sister Qiao would handle the gentle part; she was good at heart-to-heart talks and liked to influence the other party with gentle words.

Sister Qiao took Wei Xia's hand and went into the room, and Auntie Han and Lu Qiao followed.

Officer Liu didn't go in; after all, men and women are different, and it wasn't very convenient.

He came along mainly to prevent anything from happening to the children.

Officer Liu looked at the courtyard; there was no firewood for burning.

How did Wei Xia and her three daughters cook?

This area was a bungalow, with a heated brick bed in the room, using an earthen stove, which required starting a fire to eat.

Their neighborhood office was currently conducting winter heating statistics for residents.

The main heating materials were firewood, coal, and honeycomb coal.

But now in Wei Xia's courtyard, the place for burning firewood was empty.

I heard Wei Xia didn't have much family left on her mother's side. Looking at it this way, it was almost like an orphan and a widow.

Officer Liu's brows were still furrowed. The three children had scars on their hands and arms. Although not serious, it was also infuriating to look at.

Officer Liu walked around the courtyard angrily and asked the oldest girl, who looked like she was only six or seven years old: "Did you eat this morning?"

The little girl had big eyes, like black grapes. Hearing this, she shook her head timidly, and the little boy on the side also hid behind his sister's back.

Many strangers came to the house, and the three children squatted at the base of the wall, not daring to speak.

This was really annoying and heartbreaking.

Officer Liu shouted to Sister Qiao in the room: "Old Qiao, the three children haven't eaten yet. I'll go buy some steamed buns."

Then he added: "I'll go to the firewood station to get some wood and coal."

Wei Xia was about to speak, but Sister Qiao said gently: "Old Liu knows the firewood station. You let him get some firewood for your house. It's almost October, and it's going to get cold. We are doing statistical work, and your situation will be considered for inclusion as a hardship household."

Wei Xia just lowered her head and didn't speak.

Sister Qiao continued to say gently: "I know what you said just now was angry words. How could you think that way? If your four children lose their mother, do you know what kind of life they will live? Otherwise, wouldn't the ancients say it's better to follow a beggar mother than an official father?"

Wei Xia's voice was hoarse, as if talking to herself: "I didn't expect his heart to be so cruel. We have four children. After so long, how could there be no feelings?"

"But he said he didn't want us, so he didn't want us. He lied to me. How could he lie to me? He's not human... How can I live now?"

"A few days ago, all four children caught a cold. I asked for a week's leave. After I went back to work, the unit leader told me that because I was absent without reason, I was fired."

Auntie Han didn't know about this. She looked at Wei Xia in shock: "What, the shoe factory actually fired you? You are a formal worker. You didn't make any mistakes. You just asked for a week's leave to take care of the children. No matter where you say this reason, you are in the right. Why did he fire you? Who is your leader? I'll go find him!"

Sister Qiao and Lu Qiao also looked at each other. Something was a bit wrong.

Even if Wei Xia didn't ask for leave, the four children at home were all sick, which was understandable.

After all, a woman without a husband and with four children, even the unit should consider this actual situation, not to mention she was a formal worker at the shoe factory.

Wei Xia suddenly raised her head and said: "I went to find him. I clearly asked for leave from our workshop director, but he just said no, and also said my performance on weekdays was not good. Later I found out that the workshop director and Du Wanqing are relatives."

Du Wanqing, this name was a bit familiar. Oh, I remember, is that the "white moonlight" in Jiang Chusheng's mouth?

Jiang Chusheng divorced Wei Xia for this woman.

Sister Qiao: "Then didn't you go to your factory director to explain the real situation?"

Wei Xia shook her head and said in a very small voice: "Our factory director has a bad temper and is a bit scary. I didn't dare to find him. I went to find Jiang Chusheng. The children's illness spent all my salary. I didn't have any savings to begin with. I... I really had no choice but to find Jiang Chusheng."

Lu Qiao found that Wei Xia's emotions were still okay, at least not hysterical, but clearly explaining the process of things to them.

Lu Qiao held her hand, thinking in her heart, even if you are blinded by lard now, my energy can clear your brain.

Lu Qiao's voice was very gentle and soft: "Sister Wei Xia, don't worry, speak slowly."

Although Lu Qiao's energy didn't have much effect on humans, it was still energy.

Just like described in some novels: their hands were held together heavily, as if they could draw strength from each other's palms.

Strength is equivalent to energy. This kind of contact can also encourage people.

Wei Xia was indeed much better.

Her expression was not so gloomy, but she said in a low voice: "I went to find Du Wanqing, wanting her to tell the workshop director that I had asked for leave, that I was not absent without reason, but Du Wanqing... she... that... that bitch..." ===== CHAPTER 308 =====
