Chapter 159 The Price of Lies

I walked here from Qi Bo's house for almost two hours, Xia Sha's feet were almost swollen, and now she was pulling her to squeeze the bus, "Auntie, let's take a taxi, I'm afraid there is no direct way to go home I can’t even walk on the bus.”

"Look at you child, I can walk with you at such an old age, why can't you walk at such a young age?"

Xia Sha's face turned pale, and a layer of sweat broke out on her forehead due to walking for too long, "Auntie, I will pay for the taxi."

Xia Sha was really tired, and it was a bit painful for her to stand at the moment.

"Are you going? You don't even have a job, so it's Qi Bo's money!" Liang Xiuhong ignored her, and went to the side to ask others how to get home.

Xia Sha stood helplessly by the side, holding on to the suitcase. She didn't know how the old lady believed that what she was spending now was Qi Bo's money.

A girl next to her answered Liang Xiuhong's question, and Liang Xiuhong happily returned to Xia Sha's side, looking for some change from her pocket.

"Hey, Mr. Xia, why are you here?"

The girl just now looked at the two of them, but found Xia Sha, and hurried up to say hello to Xia Sha.

Xia Sha looked at the girl in front of her, but she had some impressions that she was a college student who had just joined the job before she left Aiwei Group.

"It's been three months, you should be a regular now, right?"

Seeing that Xia Sha still had an impression of her, the girl nodded happily, "Yes, I have become a full-time employee. Thanks to Mr. Xia, if you were not willing to hire me as a newcomer at that time, I would not have such a good working platform."

Listening to their conversation, Liang Xiuhong was a little puzzled by Monk Zhang Er, "Do you know each other?"

Xia Sha replied: "Colleagues from the past."

Liang Xiuhong looked at the girl in front of her, "Look, you both go to work. Others are still at work, but you are already at home. Does it mean that the boss doesn't like you because you don't work hard?"

The girl listened to Liang Xiuhong's words in astonishment, and then looked at Xia Sha. Xia Sha smiled helplessly. Fortunately, the bus leading to Ivy was coming. The girl waved at Xia Sha, "Mr. Xia, I'm leaving first. .”

Xia Sha nodded and watched the girl leave.

Liang Xiuhong looked at the girl who was still waving at Xia Sha after walking away, "This little girl is quite enthusiastic, isn't your name Xia Sha? Why does she call you Mr. Xia?"

"A kind of respectful title in the company." Xia Sha didn't mean to show off, after all, the past is over, so she just dealt with it casually.

At this time, their bus also came into the station. Liang Xiuhong helped Xia Sha carry the box onto the bus, reversed twice, and walked more than 1000 meters before returning home after tossing and turning.

Qi Bo looked at Xia Sha's pale face, "Why have you been here for so long? What's the matter, what's wrong?"

Xia Sha sighed for a long time, and no longer had the strength to talk to him again.

................................................

"I saw Mr. Xia at the bus stop today. She was with an old lady. That old lady was from the countryside at first glance, and she was rustic. Why do you think Mr. Xia is so confused that he needs to squeeze the bus?"

"Leaving Ivy and divorcing Mr. Leng, I am no longer a rich wife. It is normal to squeeze the bus."

The girl in the morning said a few words to a close female colleague, who happened to be overheard by Leng Yan who was passing by.

Leng Yan pulled the girl's arm, and asked eagerly, "What did you just say? Where did you meet Mr. Xia?"

It was the first time for Leng Yan to speak to her, and she was a little speechless for a while, and she hesitated for more than ten seconds to describe the location clearly.

Leng Yan didn't think too much about it, he ran out at a gallop, and drove to the bus station. The building was already empty, and there was no shadow of Xia Sha.There was another burst of loss, and a throbbing pain in the chest for no reason.

................................................

After lying down for a month, Qi Bo was finally allowed to get out of bed and move about. Xia Sha slept on the floor for a few days, her back ached, and she occasionally had to look at Liang Xiuhong's dissatisfied eyes.

In fact, Liang Xiuhong does nothing, whether it is Xia Sha's character, appearance, or craftsmanship, it can be said that everything is in her heart. It is a jobless thing, but it covers up all the good things about her. How do you look at it? They have all become unemployed vagabonds who eat and work lazy at home.

The old lady can save as much as she can. Liang Xiuhong put away all the high-quality toilet paper. She also said that Xia Sha can't live. She bought some cheap paper from the street. It was extremely unhygienic at first glance.

Food and drink are also strictly controlled. Even though Xia Sha is pregnant and needs to replenish her body, in order to save costs, she also buys some leftover fruits from the daytime sale when she goes to the night market. Deduct with a paring knife.

While Xia Sha was out for a walk, Qi Bo also complained to Liang Xiuhong: "Mom, Xia Sha is pregnant, why can't you buy them something good to eat?"

Liang Xiuhong said indifferently: "What's wrong with these, can't these be eaten? These are also bought with money, let's wash it, wash it, peel it, what's the difference between good and good? What's the matter? She Have you sued me? Ah, I am an old lady, at such an age, she still complains when I go out to buy her carefully selected fruits? Just say that day, I will accompany her all the time It was a long way, I took two buses and came back, I didn’t say I was tired, she couldn’t take it anymore, she insisted on taking a taxi back, she has no job, she eats and drinks for free, what’s wrong with walking a few steps, Isn’t taking a taxi a cost of your hard-earned money?”

If Liang Xiuhong hadn't mentioned it, Qi Bo really wouldn't have known about it. No wonder Xia Sha came back that day with such an ugly face and was weak.

"Even if she knows a rich friend, he is also rich, so what does it have to do with her?"

Seeing her son speaking for Xia Sha, Liang Xiuhong thought it was Xia Sha and Qi Bo who said something, and her tone became even worse.

"Mom, Xia Sha never told me anything, don't wrong him."

Liang Xiuhong complained angrily: "Don't come here, you are so big, have you ever talked back to me? It's good now, have a wife and forget your mother?"

"Mom, when did I talk back to you?" Qi Bo couldn't help crying out.

Liang Xiuhong snorted, "Then what are you doing now? Isn't talking back?"

"Mom, let me tell you, don't worry about how she wants to spend money. She never spent my money."

Liang Xiuhong was not moved by Qi Bo's words, but said naturally very shrewdly: "You don't lie to me, she doesn't even have a job, and she doesn't know how to live, she takes a taxi when she goes out, you make me believe that she is rich, you should I'm stupid. Let me tell you, you hurry up and give me your salary card, and Mom will keep it for you. If she has a boy in her stomach, it's easy to talk about. I don't care if you get the card with her, but if It's a girl, don't marry her if you bring the child here, if you really want to enter the house, you can, but you must find a stable job."

Qi Bo was a little speechless, what age is this, and his mother is still so patriarchal, "Mom, why are you saying this again, didn't you say before that you let her take care of the children at home for two years?"

Liang Xiuhong glared at Qi Bo, "Mom has made up her mind. If the child is born, Mom can bring it to you. She will go out to work so that there will be no delay. One child does not need two people to take care of it."

Qi Bo frowned, "Mom, you're not going back to your hometown? Didn't you say you won't live with us?"

"Do you dislike Mom? Do you think Mom is in the way?" Liang Xiuhong's eyes immediately became wet, "I know you young people don't like us old guys, but Mom misses you, not grandson."

Seeing his mother crying, Qi Bo couldn't take it anymore, "Mom, look at you, why are you crying? I didn't mean that."

Hearing what her son said, Liang Xiuhong's tears stopped, "Son, think about it, although our house is not as luxurious as others, but these two rooms are enough. You and Xiasha share one room, and my grandson and I share one room." In the meantime, the two of you are at work, and I will take care of the children at home, so I can still cook for you. If I go back to my hometown, who will take care of this child? With your little salary, if you buy me a house in my hometown, will you still pay me? What to eat and drink, let me tell you, you must let Xiasha find a job quickly, and don't let her stay at home."

At this time, the two people heard the sound of opening the door and knew that Xia Sha had come back. Liang Xiuhong winked at Qi Bo and reminded, "Did you hear that?"

Qi Bo nodded helplessly, "I heard."

Seeing Xia Sha come in, Liang Xiuhong greeted her nonchalantly, "Are you back?"

"came back."

Seeing the two of them standing there, Qi Bo's expression was not normal, and he knew that the two of them were studying him behind their backs.

With Liang Xiuhong on her back, Xia Sha asked, "I don't think you plan to tell the truth to your mother, do you?"

"do you mind?"

"Nonsense, of course I don't mind, but you are enjoying the performance. Look at me, don't you think I'm aggrieved?"

He just dealt with his mother, and now he is being questioned by Xia Sha. Qi Bo's head is a bit big, but he really doesn't want to be honest. As the days go by, you will feel that the days without a woman in the family always seem to be missing something.

Although my mother is also a woman, her nature is quite different.

"Don't take it to your heart. You are the prime minister who can pull a boat. At worst, I will return the rent to you intact. Is it okay if I let you live here for free?"

"It's not Officer Qi. I'm a little confused now. What are you trying to lie about?" This was the first time Xia Sha heard Qi Bo willingly spit out the money.

Qi Bo said honestly: "It used to be for money, but now it is for lying."

Xia Sha gritted her teeth, "I think you are recovering well, starting tonight, you sleep on the floor."

"Okay, no problem." Qi Bo chuckled, "Do you want me to change the sheets for you?"

"Of course, do you still need to ask such trivial matters?"

Qi Bo saluted, "I am willing to serve you."
