two trees for forest

Lin Jian went to wash Dongyu's face, and took him to pay back the money to the grandma in the toy store.Lin Dongyu nodded obediently, and hugged the teddy bear Lin Jian bought for him before leaving.

Lin Dongyu hugged Xiong Shen, who was bigger than himself, and followed Lin Jian with one foot and one shallow foot. Lin Jian didn't help, but just stood still and waited for him quietly.

The toy store is not far away, and the two walked there in about ten minutes.At this time, the sky was gradually getting dark, and there were no customers in the toy store. The owner was sitting alone in front of the glass cabinet, reading a book with reading glasses.

Lin Jian opened the door for his son with his teddy bear in his hands.A gust of wind chimes sounded, and the owner looked up and saw the young man who came at noon and a teddy bear following him.When one person and one bear approached, the shopkeeper saw the little boy holding the bear.

The shopkeeper closed the book, looked at the approaching father and son and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Lin Jian took the bear from Dongyu's hand and said, "Talk to grandma yourself."

With red eyes, Lin Dongyu took out 100 yuan from his pocket, and handed it to the counter with both hands, "Grandma, I'm sorry, this is the money I got in your store this afternoon. I... I was wrong, I'm sorry."

The store manager was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lin Jian, "No, what's going on?"

Lin Jian briefly talked to the shop owner, and the old man took out today's business funds and accounting books, and after doing the calculations, he found that 100 yuan was really missing.

The old man took the money on the counter and unconsciously stroked a thin note.Lin Dongyu stood on tiptoe, trying to see the owner, "Grandma, my father bought this bear at noon, can I return it?"

The old man opened the door next to the cabinet and pulled Lin Dongyu into his arms, "Tell grandma how you got grandma's money?"

Lin Dongyu lowered his head and said in a low voice: "When school is over in the afternoon, there are a lot of people here, I... I just took advantage of you to get goods for others, and got in to get them. I'm sorry grandma, I will definitely not gone."

The old man patted his head: "It's a good boy who knows his mistakes and corrects them. Then tell grandma why you stole the money? Why do you want to return the gift that Dad bought for you now?"

"Because... because Dad has a cold, he has no money to see a doctor. I don't want gifts, I just want him to be well."

"What a good boy." The old man hugged him affectionately: "Why don't we be like this? The teddy bear is a gift that Dad bought for you. You keep it. If you want 100 yuan, grandma will give it to you first. You just need to give it to you every afternoon. Come and help grandma sell toys together, the money is considered as your salary from grandma, okay?"

Lin Dongyu's eyes lit up suddenly, and he looked at Lin Jian pleadingly, hoping to get his permission.

The old man also smiled and pleaded for Lin Dongyu, "If you trust Auntie, let the children stay here. Auntie has opened a shop here for more than 20 years. If you are worried, you can ask the neighbors around you."

"No aunt, it's not that I don't worry about you. I have to go to work from 07:30 to [-]:[-] in the evening, so I don't have time to pick him up."

"That's okay, just send him here before you go to work. At worst, I will close the door later, and then close it after you get off work. My wife is bored here alone, and your son is not very safe at home alone. The two got married."

Lin Jian finally let go after being harassed by the mother-in-law and grandson.The three of them made an appointment starting from tomorrow. Lin Dongyu would finish dinner at home, and Lin Jian would send him here. After class in the evening, he would pick him up from here to go home together.

Lin Dongyu happily bid farewell to his grandma with his advance salary.After leaving the toy store, Lin Dongyu handed over the money to Lin Jian, and insisted on taking him to the hospital to see a doctor. Lin Jian had no choice but to go to a community hospital with his son.

Lin Jian hugged the teddy bear with one hand, and led his son with the other.Lin Dongyu looked at his father's swollen left hand with distress, and carefully clutched his sleeve, trying not to touch his palm.

In fact, Lin Jian had a serious cold. The doctor advised him to hang a bottle, but he really couldn't spare the time, so the doctor had to settle for the next best thing. He prescribed muscle acupuncture for two days and medicine for three days. On his own initiative, he asked the doctor for a bottle of medicine to put on Lin Jian's hands.

It was really late after seeing the doctor, and it was too late to cook when he went back. Lin Jian extravagantly took Lin Dongyu out for dinner, and bought him a small cake on the way home.

When he got home in the evening, Lin Dongyu hurriedly urged Lin Jian to take the medicine, then opened the small cake, and when he finished drinking the medicine, he brought the first bite of the cake to Lin Jian's mouth, and Lin Jian ate it with a smile.Dongyu didn't bother to eat by himself, took Lin Jian's left hand, and said to him while applying the medicine, "Dad, you eat first, we each have half."

Lin Jian smiled and said good, he knows, just like the milk every morning, if he doesn't drink it, Dongyu won't drink it either.

While he was eating the cake, Lin Dongyu took his hand with a cotton swab dipped in the medicine and gently applied it, with a serious expression on his face that was more serious than his own exam paper.

The small cake was really too small, Lin Jian finished half of it in two or three bites, and left the rest to Lin Dongyu.

Lin Dongyu took the fork used by Lin Jian, and ate the small cake bit by bit with great care.

Lin Jian really couldn't stand it anymore, he closed his eyes fiercely, touched Lin Dongyu's small face, and told him to do his homework quickly after eating.He turned around and went into the bathroom, locking the door behind him.

This day's mood fluctuated too much, Lin Jian washed his face with cold water with one hand, leaned against the wall, buried his face between his legs, closed his eyes and let go of all his thoughts.

Is this the life I want?

I brought this child back just to let him stay with me, and then let him eat a piece of cake carefully, for fear of finishing it?

How did I swear at that time that I could take care of myself and take care of him?

did i do it?

People who can't even guarantee material life, what qualifications do they have to talk about pursuing their ideals without shame?

It took Lin Jian all night to figure it out, and he made an appointment with Lu Ziyu during lunch the next day.

"What's the matter, looking for me in such a hurry?" Lu Ziyu pulled away the stool opposite Lin Jian, turned his head and said warmly to the waiter beside him, "Give me a glass of lemonade first."

"I'm dying of thirst!" Lu Ziyu complained, "I didn't say anything on the phone, I was dying of anxiety."

The old god Lin Jian sat there, and after a while he said lightly: "I want to resign and leave this industry temporarily."

"Pfft——" Lu Ziyu spat out a sip of lemonade, and coughed for a long time before he managed to speak: "Boss, where are you singing again? Who provoked you again? Tell me, I will kill you for you he!"

"Where did you come out of the gangster air?" Lin Jian frowned, and then answered him calmly: "It's nothing, it's just me, I want to resign."

"Does Teacher Wang know?"

"I don't know. I'm going to talk to him after the work at hand is finished."

"He slapped him to death, believe it or not!" Lu Ziyu wiped his spew on the table with a paper towel, and swallowed the remaining half glass in one gulp, for fear that Lin Jian's words would make the half glass of lemonade linger on.

Lin Jian laughed at him, "That's Master's attitude towards you."

Lu Ziyu stopped his hand wiping the table.Yes, he is always impulsive, and Mr. Wang knew it when he took him with him.But Lin Jian is different, he thinks calmly before making every decision, and weighs all the pros and cons.So the final decision must be the best solution he thinks.

Lu Ziyu couldn't help but get serious. "Why do you think so suddenly? Then you asked me to come?"

"Investment. I want to open my own art agency."

"I need to know why."

Lin Jian looked him straight in the eyes: "I hope Lin Dongyu can be like all children of the same age, the biggest thing he worries about every day is the exam."

Lu Ziyu disdainfully said, "That's impossible, your son is too precocious. And just like him, No.1 doesn't have to worry at all."

"But I want to give. The child is sensible, it is the parents' credit, but if the child is capable, it is because the parents are too incompetent." Lin Jian paused, as if he was thinking about how to word, and he couldn't organize his words for a long time. He opened his mouth and said, "I want to give him a sense of security so that he won't worry that one day I will abandon him."

Lu Ziyu was silent, and Lin Dongyu felt insecure.He also felt that every time he faced the most important person, he would become cautious and always try to show his best side, but that was not the real him.At least, not all of him.

"it is good."

"You—" Lin Jian didn't expect him to be so straightforward, "Don't ask anything?"

Lu Ziyu laughed, "Don't you believe me! I have some money. If I don't cooperate with you, I have to find other investments. After all, I'm on my own. I know your ability. But you haven't saved, so I must not have enough money. Go to my old man for it?"

"No need." Lin Jian interrupted him, "Your father is not a big boss of a company, but also a working class, so don't bother uncle. We don't know whether to pay or win."

"Then what do you mean, find another partner?"

"Well. A teacher in the art institution I'm working at now, he mentioned it to me before, but I rejected it. I'll contact him. He's over 30. He's quite smooth and philistine, but he has good abilities."

"Okay, you arrange it."

Half a month later, Lin Jian resigned from the design institute. Wang Jie sighed and didn't say anything to keep him. He only told him that he could go to him if he had any difficulties in the future, and he could come back at any time.
