Chapter 5: My best friend’s today is her fault

An Wen smiled at Aunt Xie, "Auntie, I'm not sad, really."

"Well, as long as you understand in your heart, the past is in the past. An An, why are the dark circles under your eyes so bad?" Aunt Xie looked at An An, who was putting on her makeup, and felt very distressed, "Did you stay up late again last night? An An , you need to rest more, don’t work too hard, it’s getting late, go back to your room and rest quickly.”

An Wen nodded and returned to the room. As soon as the door closed, she leaned against the door and slid down slowly.

Just then, the cell phone rang loudly.

An Wen came back to her senses and saw the caller ID. Her breathing tightened and she quickly answered the call.

The call was from Jiang E. Jiang E was her best friend and her cousin. They went to university together and had a close relationship.

However, they have not contacted each other for a long time since three years ago.

Three years ago, Jiang E's parents were also in her father An Shenghe's car. If it weren't for An Ai's relationship, Jiang E's parents would have returned to the Jiang family. However, because of An Ai, the car was diverted, and Jiang E's parents Also died in that car accident.

"An Wen." Jiang E's voice came hoarsely, with a strong sense of tiredness, "I want to go back to Jiangcheng."

An Wei was stunned. She got married three years ago after Jiang E's parents passed away.

She was married to a man she had known for less than a month, and her family was from the countryside, in a remote and poor country hundreds of thousands of miles away from Jiangcheng.

Jiang E's man can be regarded as a phoenix man. He came up from fighting in a small town thousands of miles away and became a graduate of a key university in Jiangcheng. He found a well-known company in Jiangcheng and his starting salary was tens of thousands. When they got married, they bought I bought a house, but I bought it off-plan, and I still have to pay for it for thirty years.

After Jiang E became pregnant, she had to recuperate at home because of severe morning sickness.

Jiang E's man said that he should focus on his career and work hard to provide the best conditions for his children. In order to save money, he asked Jiang E to go back to the countryside to raise a baby. His parents would be there in the countryside, and being able to take care of her would also make him feel at ease and save more money. A lot of rent.

He will work hard to reduce the thirty-year mortgage to ten years. Even if he cannot pay off the mortgage as soon as possible, he can still make money for renovations as soon as possible.

Jiang E saw that her husband was really busy with work. He would come back in the middle of the night and leave early in the morning. She was pregnant and lethargic. Many times, she was unable to talk to her husband for many days. In addition, her parents-in-law and husband tried their best to persuade her. She agreed.

So two years ago, Jiang E went back to the countryside to raise and have a baby.

The child is now two years old.

Except for sending gifts to this little nephew on his birthday, An Wen had never seen his photos.

"Jiang E, are you finally coming back to work on your career?" An Wen smiled and said, "We haven't seen each other for three years. Time flies so fast. It's great that you are coming back. Has your house been renovated?"

"An Wen, please help me find a house." Jiang E said, "Also, can you lend me a few thousand yuan? Not much, just enough to pay for the child's kindergarten admission."

An Wei was stunned, "What happened?"

"It's nothing. The house has not been renovated. I want to go back to Jiangcheng and have to find a house to live in. I didn't discuss it with him. I want to come out on my own, but I won't leave my child in the countryside." Jiang E's hoarse voice was full of helplessness. , "I can't bear to leave her in the countryside, but I have to go to work and must find a kindergarten that can accept two-year-old children."

"Okay, when will you come?"

"The sooner the better, help me find a good house and I'll leave immediately." Jiang E said.

"Jiang E, did something happen? Why don't you discuss it with the father?"

"Actually, the house was renovated, but he rented it out in exchange for rent. He never thought of letting me go back to Jiangcheng. I have to go back. I can't let my children live in the country all their lives. I miss everything in the big city. I want to go back. Work." Jiang Wei said firmly.

An Wen vaguely realized that something was wrong with Jiang E and his wife, and was worried.

After all, when it came to finding a house, Jiang Wei didn't look for her husband, but her.

"An Wen, don't tell anyone that I will return to Jiangcheng." Jiang E asked again, "The price of the house is less than five hundred, as long as it can be lived in, and it can give me and my child a place to sleep."

This is the minimum quality of life requirement.

An Wen felt a pain in her heart. If it weren't for her, why would Jiang E be like this?

Three years ago, Jiang Wei was still a little girl who didn't know the sufferings of the world. She looked forward to a bright future. Although she couldn't open her mouth for food, she didn't have a finger to touch the sun. A piece of clothing cost only a few hundred yuan. But now ... Even renting a house can only cost 500 yuan for a single room.

For five hundred yuan, what kind of good house can you rent in Jiangcheng, where land is at a premium? It's either a shabby old house or a basement, or it's an urban village far away from the city center.

She actually knew that Jiang Wei's life was not going as he wished.

She added Jiang E's man's WeChat ID. The man's name was Yang Zian. When Jiang E got married, An Wen once scrolled through the circle of friends where he missed his ex-girlfriend, which contained dissatisfaction with his current life.

She added Yang Zian's WeChat account through someone else. Yang Zian probably didn't know that she was Jiang E's cousin, because An Wen also discovered that Jiang E didn't add Yang Zian's WeChat account, so Yang Zian had no chance of sending it to Moments. No fear.

She didn't dare to tell Jiang E at that time because they had just gotten married, but there was no doubt that this warm marriage, which allowed Jiang E's soul to rest, actually did not have much emotional basis, and it was easily broken once it was broken. kind.

But An Wen knew that Jiang E suddenly lost her family at that time and was in urgent need of comfort. Yang Zian was heartbroken and wanted to give his overseas girlfriend a sense of crisis, so he pursued Jiang E. At such a fragile time, Jiang E quickly became dependent on him. Yang Zian, she dare not and cannot break this attachment.

Maybe Yang Zian just vented in the circle of friends and soon forgot about his first love.

But now it seems that this is not the case, because Jiang E is not living a good life.

"Okay." An Wen agreed. After hanging up the phone, An Wen immediately called an agent he knew and asked him to find a house.

The other party was very dedicated and quickly sent a bunch of photos of the property.

An Wei sent these photos of the house to Jiang Wei, and she quickly selected a single room with a monthly rent of 500 yuan, and asked An Wei to rent it immediately. She would come by car early tomorrow morning, "I'll make a reservation in the morning The high-speed train at eight o'clock will arrive in six hours. You can pick me up at the high-speed rail station when the time comes. I have a baby and luggage, so it's not easy to take." Jiang E said.

An Wen's heart ached, "But the house you chose looks very shabby, and the bathroom is shared. It seems that the sanitary conditions are not very good."

The bed I slept on was almost tolerable, but it would be disgusting to think about it if the bathroom were shared.

"It doesn't matter. I just want a bed that I can sleep on. If the hygiene is bad, I can do it myself."

"okay, I get it."

An Wen could hear Jiang Wei's impatientness, fatigue and confusion.

Even her husband is unwilling to take charge of her. Their marriage is about to collapse, right?

In addition to feeling distressed, An Wen also felt guilty. If it weren't for her, Jiang E wouldn't be in the situation he is in today.

"Jiang E, why don't I go back to the house tomorrow to take pictures of the real scene? I don't know if the house is different from the photos." An Wei still wanted to see the house in person.

"No need. Just a place to stay is enough." Jiang E's requirements were very low.
