My wife Xiangxiu (pseudonym) is a petite and delicate girl, with a particularly beautiful appearance. Our culture is not high, and we don't have any special requirements for marriage and love. We just want to find a down-to-earth man and live a peaceful life.
My family and friends praise me for being lucky because I have a natural flaw, which is that I am relatively short. I put in a lot of effort to think about it. I wore height shoes, took height medication, and also used some diet and exercise that were beneficial for height, but none of them worked. Until I got married to Xiangxiu, I was still a small man of 1.6 meters. This is not only a serious physiological defect for me, but also a fatal psychological blow.
At first, Xiangxiu didn't pay much attention, but later on, I took Xiangxiu to work in the city. When she heard the gossip from female colleagues, she began to complain and became increasingly dissatisfied with my height. She said that my height is likely to be passed down to children and affect the image of the next generation. Xiangxiu's words were like a bolt from the blue, making me very hurt. Since then, there has been a gap between me and Xiangxiu. Although we later rented a house together outside, every time I think of Xiangxiu's words of disgust towards me, they become very negative.
Later on, with the guidance of my buddies, I came to understand that Xiangxiu's personality is very easygoing, without any independent opinions, and she is easily influenced by others. Wives are used for pain and comfort, not for anger. Couples have been together for a long time, and it is inevitable that there will be some trivial complaints, but that is only temporary. In the future, when we really have children, that will be the case. So, I had a brainstorm and decided to have a child first. Only by having a child can one completely capture the wife's heart. We rural people call this technique 'making ripe rice with raw rice'.
Those days, I began to pay great attention to Xiangxiu. Xiangxiu also enjoys my love very much. But time was running out, and three months passed in the blink of an eye, and Xiangxiu's stomach still had no response. I started to mutter in my heart, isn't Xiangxiu sick? Soon, I took Xiangxiu to the hospital for a check-up and everything was normal. Instead, I developed infertility.
The combination of various defects such as short stature, infertility, and low income has made me feel extremely frustrated. Next, Xiangxiu accompanied me for another six months of treatment, but it still had no effect. At this critical moment, when there is no way out, I unexpectedly stumbled and won the lottery. My hands suddenly became more abundant, and Xiangxiu's attitude towards me also changed dramatically. "Dear," I shouted incessantly. Xiangxiu and I quit our hard work and bought a house in the city. We wanted to take a break and find an opportunity to invest in a clothing store.
My illness has not improved yet. One night, after I fell in love with Xiang Xiu, she suddenly tentatively told me that it is very popular for couples who cannot have children now to have children through sperm. Seeing that I didn't have any objections, she told me again about the benefits of borrowing sperm to have children. It can fulfill our dream of having a child, and the confidentiality work is also very good. I immediately fell into contemplation and did not agree to her on the spot. Xiangxiu didn't react to me and thought she had acquiesced.
Not long after, she called to find the phone number on the street advertisement for "low price sperm donation" under the name of "returning to her mother's house". Xiangxiu secretly withdrew tens of thousands of yuan from the card and went alone to a strange city, seeking the "essence donor" on the small advertisement. Finally, I was scammed into being penniless and left stranded on the streets of Guangzhou, calling me for help.
The fraudster's surname is Zhu, and he is a robust man in his thirties. It is exactly the same as the picture posted on the small advertisement. A talented person, coincidentally, he is also an infertility patient, and he is well aware of the hidden dangers of infertility patients' families. So, evil thoughts arose, using this despicable means to deceive money and sex. And threatened Xiangxiu that when they had sex, they had already taken a bed photo. If Xiangxiu reported him, he would disclose his privacy. After hearing this, I became angry with embarrassment and without hesitation reported to the police. Although the fraudster received the punishment he deserved, my heart couldn't let go for a long time.
Think about Xiangxiu's original intention, also for me, for the good of this family. But this childish way of going it alone really disappointed me. Of course, I did not despise Xiangxiu for this. Although she had some dissatisfaction with me before, she accompanied me through the most lonely and hopeless days.
Now that she is also a victim, as a husband, this is the time to give her the warmest comfort and accompany her out of the shadows. I have decided to take Xiangxiu on a trip first to regain my mood. After two years, if my illness cannot be cured, I will adopt a child. We are a couple in need, and we believe there will be a good ending.
