After arriving at his office, I immediately took out the test results and handed them to him. This time I stopped talking.
What else do I need to say? The list in his hand says it all.
I just looked at him quietly, and I found that his hands were shaking a little. Then he put the list on the table in front of him, then took out a cigarette, lit it and took a deep breath. At this time, he
He found that I was still standing, so he greeted me, "Oh, sit down."
I sat down immediately, but still didn't speak. I knew that now was not the time for me to speak. And he could have asked me the results directly on the phone, but he had to ask me to come here with the results.
On the one hand, the reason is that he wants to see the results with his own eyes, and on the other hand, I guess he may have something important to tell me.
He didn't start talking until he finished smoking the cigarette, "Feng Xiao, thank you."
I hurriedly said: "Uncle Lin, why are you so polite? It's a trivial matter, and this is what I should do."
He shook his head and said: "This matter is not a small matter to me."
I smiled and said: "Uncle Lin, congratulations to you. You now have a son and a daughter. You should be particularly happy now."
But he still shook his head and sighed: "Of course I am very happy. But I can't help but think in my heart, if I had known that I had a daughter in this world, would I have divorced Shi Yanni? What if I didn't divorce Shi Yanni?
If we get divorced, we won't have such a thing with Doudou, and she won't die. Of course, in this case, I won't have this son, and there won't be anything like what I have with Xia Lan now. Feng Xiao, I'm not
I want to express something else, but I feel that actually many things seem to be beyond our control. I didn’t really believe in fate before, but now I do. I feel like there is really something in this world.
There is an invisible hand controlling our destiny, and everything seems to be decided by God."
I said, "Yeah. Now I feel the same way."
He added: "Feng Xiao, you don't fully understand what I mean. What I want to say is not whether there is God's will in the dark, but I am thinking, if God's will has decided everything about a person,
If so, it would be terrible, because we ourselves cannot control everything about ourselves. Think about it, what will happen if many things are out of control?"
I said: "Uncle Lin, I think this world should be orderly. First of all, order creates life. Imagine a world that is hot and cold, suddenly reaching the freezing point, and then suddenly reaching the extremely hot point.
Can life exist in a world like this? Therefore, a disordered world like this does not exist. Our world is disordered on the surface, but there must be rules to follow, or there may be a reason behind it. The world has order.
It is orderly, but because of the limited understanding of human beings, it temporarily appears disordered. In addition, people live because of order. Sunrise and sunset, rest and activities, breakfast, lunch and dinner. If the sun goes down and never rises again,
How can we live if we never wake up after going to sleep, eat breakfast and never have lunch? Spring, summer, autumn and winter, spring plowing and autumn harvest, even in the extremely hot equator, there is such a sequence of day and night. Therefore, if this world
If it were disorder, we humans wouldn't be able to survive at all. In fact, people like order, just like people like power, but sometimes we like the world to run in our own order and impose our personal will on the world.
We originally belong to this world and are a molecule of this world. Our arms cannot twist our thighs. We cannot force others or the world to adapt to us. Only we can adapt to this orderly world. I remember such a thing was recorded in ancient books, saying
There was a locust plague in a certain place in a certain year. The locusts came in overwhelming numbers. They ate all the crops in the farmland in that place and continued to spread to other places. If this phenomenon continues like this, our world may
They have long since ceased to exist. But in fact this is not the case. One day, hundreds of thousands of birds suddenly appeared in the sky, and they wiped out these locusts in a short period of time. The Black Death in Europe in the 19th century killed several people.
There are tens of millions of people, but the world has continued and this is the reason. Therefore, we don’t have to think about whether the world will lose control and become chaotic."
He smiled slightly and said: "Feng Xiao, it seems that you have read a lot of books recently. It is a good thing that you like reading, but you are now a deputy department cadre and hold an important position, so I hope you try not to
Arguing in front of others, especially in front of certain leaders. Of course, this problem does not exist between you and me. I am just reminding you."
I couldn't help but feel ashamed, because he touched on my key point. It's true. Recently, after I read some books and learned something from them, I often had the urge to vomit. But just now
Our topic just gave me an opportunity to vent that impulse.
He reminded me that I was right. My behavior just now seemed very unstable and too boastful. I hurriedly said: "Thank you for reminding me, I will definitely pay attention to it in the future."
He burst out laughing immediately, "You've changed a lot now, which makes me a little uncomfortable with it. Okay, let's not talk about such profound topics today. Feng Xiao, I'm going to
I went to Hawaii with Xia Lan for a wedding. I was thinking just now, it would be great if you could go and take Dong Jie with you. Do you think you can spare the time to come? "
I was immediately startled by his words and hurriedly said: "Uncle Lin, where do I have time recently? There are so many things waiting for me to do in the city, it is impossible to ask for leave."
He nodded and said: "Yes, I know. Forget it. Then please take good care of Dong Jie for me. Do you think this is okay? Dong Jie seems to be hospitalized in the psychiatric department of the Affiliated Hospital of the Medical University, right? You
She's from there. Go tell the doctor and bring her out and let's have lunch together. We'll go to your newly opened restaurant. How about it?"
I reminded him hurriedly: "Isn't Xia Lan in our Jiangnan Province? It wouldn't be good if she knew about this, right?"
He said: "I asked other people to accompany her at noon. My time is also very tight recently. Only today at noon can we have a meal together."
It seems that he has already had a premonition that Dong Jie is his biological daughter, otherwise he would not have made such arrangements in advance. I thought to myself.
I said, "Okay, I'll go and find a way to get her out right away."
He checked the time and said, "If you go now, it will be about the same time. Let's meet in your restaurant before twelve o'clock."
I left immediately. When I got to the car below, I started calling Ruan Zhenzhen and asked her to leave me a better private room. Then I called Ruan Jie and told her that there was something urgent today. At noon
She couldn't go home for dinner, but I told her that she could take the child to my house by herself, because I had already discussed this matter with my family. She said forget it and talk about it later. I then asked her: "
Isn't it the same if I'm not at home? Today you have to take the child to my house to get familiar with it. And my mother has already prepared meals at home."
Then she said: "Okay."
Then I called my mother. My mother didn’t say much. (To be continued)
