() The atmosphere of the ensuing conversation was filled with a touch of warmth, and the topics all revolved around Wu Mingli, some of his growth, some of his hobbies and interests...etc.
Wu Mingli was a little embarrassed, perhaps because he never thought that his father, who was busy at work all day long, would remember some of his trivial matters so clearly and talk about them with such gusto.
Although he didn't say anything, he took the initiative to pour tea for his father twice, which moved the latter because it was the warmest treatment he had ever received.
"... When I was young, I was obsessed with doing big things and achieving great results. As a result, I really missed a lot of time growing up with my children. Many times I would not come back until after twelve o'clock at night, and my children were already asleep, so I could only follow them.
His mother chatted and learned some things about his day... The child has grown up in the blink of an eye. It seems like yesterday he just went through the formalities for entering kindergarten. This time flies by so fast... He is old,
Sometimes I always like to think of these, just like the songs of some Hong Kong and Taiwan singers. I have to take them out from time to time to listen and feel..."
Wu Dajun's words that sounded like spring water came to his ears. Chen Yu didn't need to interrupt, he just needed to listen quietly.
This is the voice of a busy father, this is a past story of a child's growth, this is a song from the years, this is a light confession of regret...
For Wu Dajun, this is a rare opportunity for him to talk. In the past, he was too busy with work, and no one could listen to him talk about these things. He also had no chance to participate in the few home visits by teachers. Today's rest is subconscious.
A kind of intention, or a desire and compensation, to have a serious chat with the child's teacher. Although the person he is facing is Chen Yu, it does not hinder his expression, because this is still a home visit. So
This is almost the first time that he feels comfortable talking about his bits and pieces of thoughts in this regard to another person in front of his children.
He felt that some things that had been accumulated in his heart for more than ten years were slowly being unearthed, and he felt a rare sense of relaxation and joy. At this moment, he had a sudden feeling: It turned out that his attachment to these aspects exceeded his own.
Imagination is even more exciting than work...
At this time, he had put aside all kinds of work concerns and ideas.
Originally, in front of Chen Yu, it was not suitable to talk too much about family and children. Because the other party is a close relationship at work, talking too much about family may make people think that he is not too motivated, but Wu
Dajun didn't think about it anymore, he just continued talking so freely. He didn't care whether the other party had other ideas.
Of course Chen Yu had other thoughts, but those were similar to Wu Mingli's and were things he was almost never willing to open to others.
The older you get, the bigger the knot in your heart becomes and the heavier the things inside it become.
But this time, Wu Dajun's words were like a dexterous hand, gently untying some of the things...
When he came back from Wu Mingli's house, many of the words he just said seemed to be still echoing in his ears.
"...Parents all think about their children, but some people don't know how to express it, and may not even realize it from beginning to end... Only when I become a father do I realize the hardships and intentions of my parents before.
It’s a pity that it’s a little late…”
He also remembered that when he left, Wu Mingli had something brighter in his eyes than when he first left, something shining, something that might be what he had been looking for.
Although he didn't speak, Chen Yu knew that he was very grateful for his home visit.
Before leaving, Wu Mingli couldn't help but whisper to him: "Brother Yu, today I really... thank you."
Although he didn't say it explicitly, Chen Yu knew the meaning contained in his words.
Maybe he finally realized that he was not unlucky, but lucky.
What about myself? When will I have this kind of realization like Wu Mingli... Is it possible...
He returned to the security office in the afternoon, sat at his desk, and picked up another piece of information that had just been sent from the fax machine.
This time the Academic Affairs Office's home visit assistance operation is indeed quite special. Because the other department is short of people and the arrangement is relatively chaotic, the list of people who need to assist in the home visit are temporarily sent by fax machine. I need to know the next list at the last minute.
.In Chen Yu's view, this is a bit like a lottery. No one knows the final result until the last moment.
Of course, this gave him more expectations and made the results more exciting.
He put away the mood caused by visiting Wu Mingli's house in the morning and looked at the paper in his hand. Sure enough, it was the latest list of home visits sent by the Academic Affairs Office.
There is a simple line of text on it: Freshman of general education class: Anluo. Contact information: 188**********. Home address: Room 1801, Building E, Dihao Villa, No. 1 Wangjiang Road, Mingzhu District.
Settled down?
Chen Yu's eyes immediately flashed to the fragile girl who was often with Wen Xiaoxiu.
Why is it her again?
Chen Yu did not expect that the people he visited three times at home were all people he knew and had close friendships with.
Anluo is a girl he has met a lot. The latest meeting was on the bench of the Cultural Plaza that morning. He still remembers the other girl's heartfelt complaint:
"Still trying to quibble, where were you last night?" "Brother Yu, you know that Sister Xiu is very fond of you, how could you be with Teacher Anna... together!?" "Sister Xiu is feeling a little unwell today.
Comfortable, I guess it must be because of sadness. Asking what love is in this world, even Sister Xiu is sad..."
...I get a headache just thinking about it. This girl firmly believed that the sacred sister Xiu in her heart had fallen in love with him, but he actually did some things that were sorry for her sister Xiu...
This time we actually want to visit her home?
He felt that his head was a little big. Would she not give him a good look when he went to her house?
For a girl with such a personality like Anluo, this is entirely possible.
He thought about it and gave up the idea of asking the Academic Affairs Office to change the list. He picked up his mobile phone and dialed the number on the paper.
After a burst of pleasant music sounded, a burst of noise came from the microphone over there.
Chen Yu frowned slightly. He knew as soon as he heard that the other party was in a wine-like environment, and the quality was not too high.
"Hello? Brother Yu?" An Luo's pleasant voice said with surprise.
Chen Yu didn't expect that the other party had his mobile phone number and said, "Yes, An Luo. Where are you?"
"What are you doing? I'm... working part-time." An Luo thought for a while and replied.
"Working in wine?" Chen Yu asked in surprise.
"Experience life... If you don't call Sister Xiu, how can you call me?" An Luo said doubtfully.
Chen Yu smiled bitterly. Sure enough, he kept the topic. He mentioned Sister Xiu again and said, "Anluo, um... isn't the school going to conduct home visits recently? Have you received the notice?"
"Oh, um, yes. It seems that the school number called me two days ago, but I didn't answer it. - I was not so lucky and got picked?" An Luo said.
"Yes, congratulations, you have become one of the twenty students to receive a home visit." Chen Yu said.
"Oh, that's really disappointing... Are you calling just to tell me this?" An Luo said a little strangely.
"No, there is one more thing," Chen Yu continued, "I want to tell you that I am the one who is going to visit your home."
"No? Brother Yu...you changed your career to become a teacher?" An Luo said in surprise. Although he couldn't see her, Chen Yu could imagine her cute look with her little mouth wide open now.
Chen Yu said: "No, I'm working part-time just like you, and I'm a temporary worker, just a temporary worker in the Academic Affairs Office. How about it, is it convenient? When will you be home?"
There was silence on the phone for a while, and then Anluo's voice sounded, saying: "Brother Yu, I can't leave now. Why don't you come over to me tonight, and I'll tell you in detail when you come. My address is in the East.
This side of the road..."
After saying that, before Chen Yu could speak again, the other party had already hung up the phone.
