After I got pregnant, my boyfriend broke up with me with 1 million, and 3 years later, the family came to the door
Today is the birthday of my youngest son, Tong Tong.
I took a day off today to take my son to the mall to buy new clothes. Seeing Tong Tong's elated appearance, the worries in my heart disappeared in an instant.
The child loves to wear new clothes, and when I try them on, he keeps making funny poses that make me cry and laugh.
When I was about to ask him to try on a denim jacket, I suddenly found that he was gone. I hurriedly ran to the front of the store and looked around.
Not far from the entrance of the store, I saw Tong Tong pulling a man's trouser leg and shouting "Daddy".
Ignoring anything else, I threw the clothes in my hand to the clerk, ran over quickly, and picked up Tong Tong, ready to apologize to the man.
When I raised my head, it was as if time had frozen, and the man turned out to be Liu Wei.
He hadn't seen him for three years, he looked much thinner, and there was a tall woman next to him holding his arm.
I immediately came to my senses, hurriedly said "I'm sorry, the kid recognized the wrong person", and then picked up my son and hurried away.
On the way home, Tong Tong kept asking me why I didn't let him call that person Dad.
Looking at his innocent face, I didn't know how to answer. Memories flashed through my mind like a movie.
Liu Wei and I were high school classmates, and neither of us was admitted to college after graduation. I went to Beijing to work, and Liu Wei was met when I was in the night market.
We were overjoyed to meet again in a foreign land. Gradually, the relationship between us developed smoothly.
Although Liu Wei was a little indecisive, other than that, we got along very well. He always asked for my advice, which made our relationship more harmonious.
Three years later, we decided to confess to our parents and discuss marriage.
However, I didn't expect Liu Wei's parents to be adamantly opposed to us being together because I had a younger brother.
I can understand the mentality of the Brothers, but they can't knock over a boatload of people with a stick. I feel aggrieved.
Although I used to cry and make trouble, Liu Wei's attitude was clearly biased towards his parents. I know that twisted melons are not sweet, and I also know that we must go with the flow and not force it.
I don't like to drag mud and water, and after a few days, I moved out of the place I lived with Liu Wei, determined to start my life again away from him.
It didn't take long for me to start feeling nauseous, especially in the face of greasy food, and my stomach was churning. I found out I was pregnant after testing with a test strip. At that time, I had mixed feelings, and perhaps I was looking forward to Liu Wei being able to rebuild his relationship with me because of the child.
However, looking forward to it, Liu Wei handed me a letter of agreement and a check for 1 million yuan without expression. He asked me to get rid of the child, because our relationship was just a friendship between classmates, and all these years of care were enough to compensate me.
I distinctly remember that the agreement reads: if I kill the child, he will compensate me 1 million; But if I give birth to a child privately, I must return 1 million, and he has the right not to bear paternal responsibility.
Liu Wei's attitude was so resolute that I couldn't put my beak in it. Since our relationship is irretrievable, maybe the 1 million can be regarded as a comfort to ourselves.
I didn't want this baby in the first place, but the doctor told me that insisting on an abortion would make it almost impossible for me to get pregnant again because of the very thin walls of my uterus, so I thought twice.
I was stuck in a state of hesitation and couldn't make a decision. So, I went home and told my mom everything. My mother insisted that I get rid of the baby, saying that I still have a long way to go, and that I shouldn't block the way out of the future because of a momentary mistake.
I understand her thoughts, and I know how difficult it can be to be a single mom, not only to face gossip, but also to raise children in isolation.
However, compared to the regret of not being able to be a mother, I feel like I can live with it all.
Eventually, I decided to give birth to my baby. With the 1 million given by Liu Wei, plus my own work income, it should be enough to raise a child.
My mother was so angry that she said she wanted to cut off the mother-daughter relationship with me. But that was just angry talk, and during the few days I gave birth, my mother still took care of me wholeheartedly.
It wasn't until my son was three years old that my mother helped me take me to work.
Although the future is full of uncertainties, with my son, my heart is no longer so flustered. It's just that I never thought that I would meet Liu Wei again in such a way.
At night, I tried my best to lull my son to sleep, but I was tossing and turning in bed. If it weren't for my son asking me every day, "Everyone else has a dad, why don't I have one, where did my dad go?" "I probably wouldn't be so entangled.
I casually picked up a photo of Liu Wei's classmates and showed it to him. Unexpectedly, Liu Wei's appearance was deeply imprinted in his son's mind. He recognized Liu Wei at a glance, which surprised me a little.
While I was thinking nonsense, WeChat rang, it was Liu Wei.
He asked me bluntly, is it that I don't have a **?
I replied that the child's business has nothing to do with him, and I will not use the child to blackmail him to reassure him.
I thought that this would end the matter, but early the next morning, Liu Wei called ** and asked me to have dinner together at noon.
I felt uneasy all morning, fearing that he would force me to fulfill my promise to return the million he had compensated me. In the past three years, a lot of money has been spent on raising sons and filial parents.
If he insisted that I pay back the money, I would have to make an IOU, after all, I broke the contract first.
In the restaurant, looking at Liu Wei in front of me, I couldn't find the familiar feeling I had at the beginning. After three years, there is no longer the tacit understanding between us. and Liu Wei, who forced me to sign a breakup agreement, are like two people.
However, unexpectedly, Liu Wei did not mention the money, but asked about the child's situation. He even expressed his gratitude to me for giving birth to the baby and that he was willing to raise the child with me.
When I heard this, I was speechless with astonishment. I asked him why he changed his ** degree? After a pause, Liu Wei said that everyone may have different ideas at different ages. He revealed that he got divorced a year ago and that the girl he was visiting the mall was his sister.
All these years, he dreamed of having a child. That day, he heard a child call him dad again, and he thought he was having auditory hallucinations, until he saw me, and he was a little relieved.
It turned out that my mother had met Liu Wei when she took the child out, and the child called him dad at that time. My mother didn't know Liu Wei, but she thought that the child might be longing for a father, so she didn't think much about it.
Unexpectedly, a similar situation happened again.
When I got home, I was in a state of turmoil, confused by Liu Wei's attitude and motivation for raising my children with me.
When he learned of my decision to keep the child, why didn't he ask me to return the 1 million, but instead thanked me for giving birth to the child? What he says thinks differently for each age group sounds like just a reluctant explanation.
I can't think of a plausible explanation anyway. It's good for a child to have a father, but this sudden change in attitude scared me.
I woke up in the morning with a splitting headache and my son was still asleep. As soon as I came out of my bedroom, I heard a series of knocks on the door.
Who would be visiting so early? I opened the door and saw a strange middle-aged couple carrying a gift bag full of gifts.
I was surprised and asked, "Who are you looking for?" The middle-aged lady smiled and said, "You are Xiaoye, right?" We are Liu Wei's parents. ”
I nodded hesitantly, surprised by their visit. The lady continued: "What happened before, we were not good enough for you, and I hope you will forgive us. ”
I smiled faintly: "Let the past pass, I've forgotten." She looked into the living room, and I immediately understood what she meant, and invited them in.
The lady placed the gift on the coffee table and looked around to ask if the child had woken up.
I pointed to the bedroom, and she smiled awkwardly, "It's me who is in too much of a hurry and came too early." ”
I said to her, "You can look at him, but don't tell him about it just yet." I'll explain it to him slowly, and I hope you understand. ”
They nodded. At this time, the bedroom door opened, and the son walked out.
The lady hurriedly opened a gift bag, took out a toy, and wanted to hand it to the child, but the child flinched.
I explained, "Son, this is a good friend of your grandmother, coming to see you. ”
With my permission, the child happily took the toy and thanked her.
Seeing the child's happy appearance, the lady's eyes were full of joy, and I also felt a trace of warmth.
I even imagined that they were the children's grandparents, and how beautiful it was to be happy together as a family.
However, the reality is so embarrassing, many things that were originally going smoothly have suddenly taken an unexpected turn.
In the days that followed, Liu Wei frequently bought clothes and toys for Tong Tong, and began to ask me about the details of Tong Tong's childhood, from birth to learning to crawl and then taking his first steps, he wanted me to tell in detail. He said that he never wanted to miss Tong Tong's future growth.
I saw Liu Wei's intentions, and although I had some doubts in my heart, I tried to convince myself that this might be the best arrangement. Gradually, I no longer dwelled too much on Liu Wei's motives.
However, until one day, I received a ** from my neighbor on the other side, and her words made me gasp violently.
It turned out that Liu Wei was not divorced, and he was diabetic, and due to many complications, doctors advised him not to have children for the next ten years. The ultimate goal of the family was just for me to return the child to them.
After the neighbor learned the truth from his aunt, he was worried that I had been deceived, so he secretly told me the truth and reminded me to be careful.
I felt like a bolt from the blue, it turned out that over the years, Liu Wei's mind had been calculated carefully, no wonder he had such a big change. If it hadn't been for a kind reminder from my neighbors, I would have almost been deceived.
I was willing to let the child know his family, even if not for Liu Wei's sake, at least for the sake of the child. It has always been his wish for a child to have a father, and it is a good thing for me to have grandparents.
But when I think of the game that Liu Wei and his family have set up for me, I really feel disgusted. A few days later, Liu Wei called ** again to ask about the child.
I rejected him, and if he just wanted to get to know the child, I wouldn't have a problem. But if he wants to keep the child for himself, I'm sorry, I can't say yes.
Liu Wei noticed the change in my attitude, and his tone was no longer patient, he said that he was doing it for my own good, and he was worried that a single woman with a child would encounter difficulties in the future. He said that this is also out of respect for our former classmates, and that he is helping me as well as helping him.
Help me? I never thought he was doing it for my good. When I decided to give birth to a child, I never thought it was for him. Now that I have decided to give birth to him, I am ready to be a single mother and do not need him to worry.
My words made Liu Wei feel anxious, and he took out the original contract to threaten me, saying that if I did not agree to return the child to him, he would adopt the terms of the contract and ask me to return the 1 million he gave me.
I sneered, okay, I'll pay him back in a week, but ask him to keep in mind that their family has nothing to do with the children from now on.
After saying that, I decisively hung up the **.
A week later, I borrowed some money from my parents and colleagues, and scraped together 1 million yuan to return to Liu Wei. From then on, I had nothing to do with him.
Once feelings are mixed with deception, it means that they are blocking their own way out. Even if it is a wide road, I do not want to have it alone, because I choose my own path and will never regret it.
