On the weekend afternoon, I was pushing a car full of shopping carts to the cashier's office when my mobile phone rang. I thought it was my husband who came back, but who knew it was my best friend Xiuying. She asked me where I was and then came to pick me up.
Xiuying soon arrived at the door of the supermarket. She told me to put my things in the trunk and urged me to get on the bus quickly. Before I could ask where I was going, she stepped on the accelerator and stopped at the door of a hot pot restaurant.
Xiuying is always in a hurry. I asked her, you won't invite me to eat hot pot on such a hot day, will you I have to go home and make soup for my husband!
She said angrily, you only know how to worry about others and what soup to pack, and then you pulled me out of the car.
There is not much difference between autumn and summer in Guangdong. Even at night, the sun still shines on the ground, and the residual temperature does not decrease. Just like the hot pot in the store, with all kinds of spices and side dishes, the smell is stronger in the end.
This hot pot restaurant has two floors, with hot pot upstairs and fast food downstairs. Many people come here to eat hot pot, but few people eat fast food.
Xiuying pulled me to sit down in the seat on the first floor. Listening to the noise upstairs and watching the crowd go up and down, I felt a little fidgety, complaining that Xiuying couldn't go and had to come to a place like this.
Xiuying didn't speak, just turned over the recipes without glue. After a long time, she asked me what I wanted to eat. I said it's best to eat as simple as that. Come on.
She glanced at me and said that fried rice with eggs was quick. Do you like it? Knowing that I don't eat fried rice with eggs, she deliberately angered me and finally ordered my favorite lemon fish.
At the end of the meal, I suddenly heard my husband's voice from upstairs. I looked up curiously and saw a girl with long hair coming down from the second floor holding her husband's arm.
I stood up and chased, and Xiuying dragged me back.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe there was another woman besides my honest husband.

My husband and I come from rural areas in remote mountainous areas of Shaanxi. When the child just turned two, we came to Guangdong to work. The purpose is to earn more money and create better living conditions for our family.
We work hard, go to work every day, and don't waste money. Although the salary is low and the treatment is not good enough, you can save five or six thousand yuan by paying all kinds of expenses a month. Even so, we are satisfied in our hearts. Working here is much more cost-effective than farming in our hometown.
Farming in my hometown can not only make no money, but also make people work harder. If the weather is fine, I can still eat. If there is a natural disaster, I may not even be able to get enough food and clothing. So we have been working outside.
What worries us most is children. Every time I see left-behind children on TV, I cry with sadness.
My husband always comforts me. Don't worry too much about them. Isn't this the case with children in rural areas in China and the central region? Besides, my parents take good care of our children. I felt a little better when he said this.
We go to work on time, eat and sleep on time, have uniform work clothes, and the factory has bought social security. Husband also teases himself, and this life is similar to that of civil servants in his hometown.
My husband is an honest man and doesn't talk much. He is very attentive and considerate to me. After work, I always like to be lazy and cheat. I can't cook, and I don't like doing housework. He made me do all the housework.
He often makes fun of me and says, fortunately, I can still work in this age, otherwise how can I live? In my hometown, rural women can't cook and do housework and will be rejected.
At that time, I often said confidently, don't I still have you? I hope you can do it, no matter what others say!
When I said these words, I was really happy and satisfied.

Going home during the Spring Festival, my hometown has changed a lot. Many villagers bought houses in the city, and several relatives of my family also bought houses in the city. Perhaps vanity. I think they all went to the city to buy a house, and my restless heart also wants to go to the city to buy a house.
My husband refused to live or die. He said that he was the only child in their family, and with such a big house at home, he could buy any house in the city. Isn't this his own sin?
No matter what he said, I just wouldn't listen to him and insisted on buying a house in the city. That was the first time I quarreled with my husband. He couldn't beat me, so he had to agree.
After the Spring Festival, we will go to see the house. There are many people looking at houses and buying houses. No matter which building you go to, it's a sea of people and a good location. We have to grab the number in advance to get the house.
After a few days in the city, we finally found Xinyi's home. We quickly placed an order, paid a down payment and mortgaged a three-bedroom commercial house.
When I bought a house, all my savings were hollowed out and I became a real house slave, so I had to go back to work in Guangdong.
Before leaving, the child took my hand and said, Mom, can you not go to work? At that time, my tears almost came out. I quickly turned around and rubbed my eyes with my fingers.
Looking at the children's reluctance, I regret buying a house. I really don't want to go out to work, but how can I repay my mortgage and support my children and parents if I don't go to work? So we left our family and set foot on the train to Guangdong.

Working overtime every day after returning to the factory, I wish I could do two jobs by myself. As long as there are classes, I can't bear to rest all day.
It wasn't long before my husband said that he wanted to work in the factory in his hometown, saying that the salary there was higher than here. Anyway, I don't think it's far off. He can leave if he wants!
Since my husband went to work there, he always feels very tired when he comes back from work. I think maybe I'm just not used to it. After work, I asked him to rest more. I will do housework and learn to cook.
A few months later, he is still exhausted, his appetite is not as good as before, and even his desire for that aspect is less.
I'm worried about whether there is something wrong with him. Let him go to the hospital. He said he was in good health.
I told him that if he was not used to it there, he would come back to work here and don't put so much pressure on himself. He told me not to worry, but the work there was a little heavy. He also told me that he would stay in the factory and come back at the weekend.
I feel a little guilty when I see him tired. Because of my vanity and strength, my husband is under so much pressure.
Every weekend, I will go to the supermarket to buy some big bones to make soup for him and buy more dishes he likes.
What I never expected was that my husband was tired and listless, not because of the so-called pressure I gave him, but because he had another woman outside.
Like a fool, I have been kept in the dark. Xiuying found out long ago, but she didn't dare to tell me, because she knew I couldn't believe it just by listening to her, so she had the opening scene.

In the face of sudden changes, I am really out of my depth. I'm not afraid of being abandoned, and I don't care about loneliness.
Divorce is not only the separation of two people, it is not a simple matter, because divorce loses not only one person, but also many roles and a planned future.
Friends, what do you think I should do?
