252: I came here alone to give birth.
Shen Sa sniffed and ran quickly to open the door. In order to prevent her uncle from seeing that she had cried, she even wiped her tears fiercely.
But the moment she opened the door, she was stunned for a moment by the unfamiliar face standing at the door.
It was a kind foreign woman who seemed to be about the same age as Zhang's mother. She was holding a basket in her arms, and timidly following behind her was a small black native dog. The puppy's eyes were bright and it was looking nervously. Focus on Shen Sa.
The scene in her fantasy did not appear, and Shen Sa couldn't hide her disappointment. She asked blankly: "Who are you?"
"Hello, little girl," the woman said, "I am your neighbor, you can just call me Mary. I saw that you just moved here this afternoon, so I brought some bread baked by myself. I'm here to pay you a visit, I hope it won't be too abrupt."
The woman named Mary spoke to Shen Sa in German throughout the whole process. Her tone was so gentle that Shen Sa took off his guard.
She glanced over and the woman pointed to another house not far away: "My family and I live there. If you need help with anything, you can go to us."
"Thank you." Shen Sa bowed politely. The kind look of this aunt named Mary made her forget that she was a scar-faced girl who was once yelled at and beaten. She took the basket with both hands and put the woman into her There was an invitation in the room, "Can you please come in and sit for a while? You can call me Shen... just call me Grace."
Shen Sa suddenly came up with a name, but Mary didn't seem to notice it. She waved her hand and said politely: "Forget it for today, you should go to bed early at this late hour. You are welcome to visit our home another day."
Mary seemed to be really just here to deliver bread. After watching Shen Sa take the basket of things, she left in a socially appropriate manner. The little black dog following her shook its head and ran happily. Shen Sa intuitively felt that she was not A bad person - small animals can tell whether a person has malicious intentions or not.
She watched the woman go away, closed the door, and returned to the room with the bread in her arms. Hungry hit her and she realized that she didn't seem to have had a serious meal all day.
This is not possible, she reminded herself to cheer up!After all, she is not fighting alone now. Giving birth to this baby healthily is the most important thing for her to do now!
Even if you don't want to eat, you should still force yourself to eat something for the baby, right?
Shen Sa broke open a piece of soft croissant and planned her next arrangement while chewing it.
After leaving China, it was obvious that it was impossible for her to go to school again. Her student status in Jingbei City should not have been withdrawn, and she was pregnant again. Besides, she estimated that she would not be able to stay in one place smoothly. What if? After being noticed by Pei Xiujin and the others, he might still have to run away.
And it’s not easy to find a job in this situation, and no one will hire a guy who looks like a child but is pregnant with a baby——
Thinking of this, Shen Sa was very happy that her uncle and grandfather had given her a large amount of money. This money was enough for her to live a serious pastoral life here without having to worry about the pressure of making money.
There is a small garden next to the place she rents. I think the previous owner must have planted some crops here. The tool room next to it also has the tools used to cultivate the vegetable garden and irrigate it.
She decided to grow some simple vegetables for herself and raise a goat to meet her daily need for goat milk. Then she wanted to find a way to get a car to drive it. It was too far from the city center and she thought it might be possible to purchase some supplies. Need to drive.
Shen Sa checked and found that it was a bit difficult to obtain status in Switzerland. Besides, she had no plans to change her nationality, so the fewer chances of being exposed, the better.
Fortunately, this is a suburb. If she learns to drive by herself, no one will check her so strictly, right?
She checked online and gave up completely. It was much harder to get a driver's license in China than in China. She really regretted not getting it in China before enrolling in school. She might as well have tried to get a bicycle and a tractor!
The next step is to study how to give birth alone in Switzerland. Well, thinking about it this way, it seems that there are still a lot of things for me to do.
The next day, Shen Sa first asked people to send ingredients and cooked a large table of sumptuous Chinese food. Then she personally visited Mary's house and invited Mary's family to come as guests. She planned to thank her for sending her baked bread and inquire about some information from her. .
Mary was surprised and happy. She brought her dog and young son Qiao to the appointment. She told Shen Sa that she had a daughter about her age named Anna. She was currently working in an IT company in Germany and could only come back for a get-together on vacation.The first time she saw Shen Sa, she inexplicably thought of her daughter. Seeing Shen Sa working here alone, she felt uneasy, so she took the initiative to come over to say hello.
Shen Sa burst into tears with gratitude, and Mary and Joe were also very happy to be able to eat authentic Chinese food in Switzerland. Mary asked Shen Sa why she came to Switzerland, and Shen Sa told a white lie, saying that she was pregnant because the scenery here is beautiful. I have communicated with my family and plan to come here alone to wait for the birth.
"Are you married?" Mary and Qiao were both shocked. After all, Shen Sa looked so young!
"Yes, my husband is very busy and promised that he would come back before I give birth." Shen Sa couldn't help but sigh inaudibly when she said this. It would be great if this was the case!
"That's just right. If you need anything, you can come to me. My son and I will help you, right, Joe?"
Qiao is a blond little boy, tall and thin with a few freckles on his face. He couldn't believe what Shen Sa said just now. He was looking at her face at the moment. When his mother called him, he immediately blushed and nodded shyly. .
While the three of them were eating, Shen Sa asked where she could buy a sheep. Mary smiled and said that she had several sheep at home, and she could just put one here for her to take care of, and it could also meet her daily needs. demand for dairy products.
"Do you need eggs? We have hens at home." Joe said thoughtfully, "I will catch them for you later."
"Or if you need help planting some crops, I can do that too!"
Shen Sa couldn't resist him. As soon as she finished eating, Qiao started busy in the yard. Shen Sa entertained him and Mary with cookies baked by herself. Mary was full of praise for her craftsmanship.
In this way, life in a foreign country that originally seemed to be difficult became simpler because of the marriage of Mary's family. Shen Sa was responsible for cooking, and Mary was responsible for instructing her son Qiao to take Shen Sa to purchase and help her with chores. In the evening, she would also He arranged for his old dog John and the little black dog from last time to help Shen Sa look after the house and the home.
The sudden feeling of home diluted Shen Sa's inner sadness. Three weeks passed before she knew it, and her birthday was coming.
