"It's already so late, why aren't you back yet? It's the middle of the night and the night is dark. Be careful on the road. " Li Na's concerned voice could be heard. Zheng Jiaxing felt warm in his heart, but more than that, he felt guilty.
"I know, we …" As Zheng Jiaxing said this, he saw Wang Qingzhi waving his hand at him, indicating that he hadn't gone back yet and would go back later.
Zheng Jiaxing's words were on the tip of his tongue, but in the end, he said, "I'm already on the way. I'll be home soon."
"That's good. Ride the motorcycle slowly. It's fine to be late, but you have to be safe." Li Na said.
"Okay, I got it," Zheng Jiaxing said.
"I'm hanging up. There's hot noodle soup in the pot. Have a bite when you get home. It's good to get rid of the cold," said Li Na.
When Zheng Jiaxing heard this, his heart warmed even more. His nose felt a little sour, and he softly agreed. He didn't want to talk anymore because he didn't want to lie to Li Na anymore.
After hanging up the phone, Wang Qingzhi patted his shoulder and shook his head. "You've been married for two years, why are you still acting like a child? Sigh … "With that, Wang Qingzhi left.
Zheng Jiaxing looked at Wang Qingzhi's back and felt a little confused. What kind of person did he want to become? To be honest, in his heart, he was quite envious of people like Wang Qingzhi who could live independently. He felt that this kind of life was the freedom that a mature man should live. Unlike him, who had to discuss with his wife every day before he did anything …
But when Zheng Jiaxing thought of Li Na and his children, he felt much better.
Therefore, Zheng Jiaxing entered the house again. As soon as he entered the house, he received countless praises.
"Jiaxing is back? Looks like we're going to sweep the battlefield again. "
"Haha, Old Six, you're going to lose all that money. Go home and eat mud."
"Jiaxing, show mercy."
Listening to the boasting voices, Zheng Jiaxing realized that his heart was starting to become active again. He really wanted to sit down and fight a few more rounds. He wouldn't go home until the sun rose.
However, thinking of his family, Zheng Jiaxing gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sorry, everyone. My family is rushing me, so I'll go back first. "
As a result, Zheng Jiaxing's words caused an uproar.
"Jiaxing, this isn't a good idea. You want to leave after winning the money?"
"That's right. We're all here to play, and we're here to have fun. Look at everyone, no one said anything, no matter if they won or lost. But I don't think it's good for you to leave as soon as you win. "
"Jiaxing, it's not that I want to criticize you, but even at Fourth Sister's place. If you were to do this outside, you would easily be beaten up."
"Jiaxing, your luck is so good. If you go back now, it would be equivalent to losing money."
"Exactly …"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Jiaxing's face turned red. He knew that this wasn't good, but … Thinking of the phone call, Zheng Jiaxing gritted his teeth and said, "Sorry, tomorrow … Let's continue tomorrow. I promise to come! If you don't come, you're a bastard. "
"Alright, alright. Everyone, stop making things difficult for Jiaxing. He has a tigress at home. What if he gets eaten if he gets home late? " At that moment, Wang Laosi, who had been silent all this while, spoke up. However, his words left Zheng Jiaxing feeling uncomfortable. He felt sour and had a nagging feeling that he was afraid of his wife, as though he was inferior to others.
Everyone said similar things, making Zheng Jiaxing feel even more aggrieved. He left Wang Laosi's place and returned home alone. Touching the wad of money in his pocket, Zheng Jiaxing's mood turned a lot better. He looked up at the moon that was about to set and thought to himself, "Regardless, I've won money. If I can win a hundred thousand a month … I can buy a car to drive. When the time comes, Li Na will be able to enjoy the limelight. "Zheng Jiaxing could not help but imagine such a scene as he turned excited again.
By the time Zheng Jiaxing returned home, Li Na had already woken up. The chimney was already spewing smoke. At this time in the countryside, everyone woke up very early. They were rushing to do farm work, so no one lazed in bed.
However, Zheng Jiaxing realized that he was tired.
After entering the house, Li Na asked out of concern, "You must be tired coming back so late. Go eat something first before taking a nap. I'll be in the fields to take a look at the water pump. "
Upon hearing Li Na's words, Zheng Jiaxing's excited feelings immediately calmed down. It was as though the bit of money he had won had turned insignificant. He nodded, ate his meal, and went to bed.
However, Zheng Jiaxing did not sleep for long before he woke up. This was because his mother had come!
"Mom, why are you here? Why are you carrying a chicken? "asked Zheng Jiaxing.
"You don't know?" Zheng Jiaxing's mother looked at Zheng Jiaxing in astonishment.
Zheng Jiaxing said in surprise, "What should I know?"
"You fool. Your wife is pregnant, and you don't even know? Eh? Where's Little Na? "Zheng Jiaxing's mother looked around the house, but she did not see anyone.
Zheng Jiaxing was shocked when he heard that. His wife was pregnant? But …
With this in mind, Zheng Jiaxing hurriedly got up, wore his shoes, and rushed out.
At his own place, Zheng Jiaxing saw Li Na squatting there to fix the water pump. The water pump did not produce any water. Clearly, there was a problem.
"Dear, are you pregnant?" Zheng Jiaxing asked nervously.
"Yes …" Li Na nodded with a bashful expression.
"Then why are you doing the work? Quickly go back. I'll do the rest! " Zheng Jiaxing yelled. Then, he unyieldingly escorted Li Na home. He personally cooked the chicken and mushroom stew. After Zheng Yu returned from school, he ate until his mouth was covered in grease. The family enjoyed a harmonious time.
However, this atmosphere was quickly destroyed by Wang Qingzhi's arrival. Upon seeing Wang Qingzhi, Zheng Jiaxing knew that it was about time for him to play cards. The joyous atmosphere of the family gathering and chatting naturally dimmed with Zheng Jiaxing's departure. Zheng Jiaxing felt guilty, but when he thought of the money he had won and the fact that his wife was pregnant and needed more money … Therefore, Zheng Jiaxing gritted his teeth and followed them.
The reason for this was to drink at Wang Qingzhi's place. Li Na did not say a word about it.
When he came to Wang Laosi's place once again, Zheng Jiaxing bought quite a bit of good alcohol. He had promised to treat everyone to a meal, but since he had failed to do so, he decided to give them alcohol. Indeed, after receiving the alcohol from Zheng Jiaxing, everyone was a lot happier. The atmosphere was still extremely lively, and Zheng Jiaxing was also in high spirits. He did not notice that the smiling face under the lamp was turning more hideous, as though it was about to devour him!
Zheng Jiaxing had brought enough money this time. He planned on winning a few rounds to celebrate the addition of a child to his family.
The first round was a good start. Zheng Jiaxing won more than two thousand. He was so excited that he almost danced with joy.
But from the second round onwards, Zheng Jiaxing clearly went downhill. He lost five hundred, three hundred, three hundred …
