Today is destined to be a busy day. For Yun Zaiye, he needs to prepare a lot in advance.

So one hour earlier than usual, at six o'clock in the morning, Yun Zaiye had already changed his clothes and sat at the dining table.

Yesterday, my mother changed to a new tablecloth. The light gray grid made Yun Zaiye really want to praise her mother's reliable aesthetics.

There is a cup of freshly brewed coffee in hand, and the rich aroma spreads in the air with wisps of heat.

With a tablet in one hand, Yun Zaiye flipped through the materials he had sorted out last night, and in the other hand he casually stuffed a piece of toast into his mouth.

Half an hour later, Yun Zaiye was fully dressed, took a folder and a few notes, and drove in the direction of the company.

After parking the car in the parking lot, Yun Zaye raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was two hours before the appointed time.

should be enough.

Back at the desk, Yun Zaye took out a piece of manuscript paper from the folder next to it, and began to write and draw on it. After a while, a clear questioning content appeared on the manuscript paper.

Putting down the pen, Yun Zaiye picked up the piece of paper, looked at it against the sun for a while, then put it down again to correct a few problems.

Well, the preparations are all done.As for other issues, it depends on Yun Zaiye's ability to adapt to changes during the consultation process later.

At eight o'clock, the door of Yun Zayeye's office was knocked on time, and then Lin Xian walked in.

Yun Zaiye stood up, "Teacher, you are here."

"Yes, come and have a look." Lin Xian nodded, motioned Yun Zaye to sit down, and then pulled the chair on the other side of the table to sit down, "It's so early?"

"Come here early to prepare, I feel that I will be a little more handy later."

Lin Xian smiled, "In the field, I will definitely achieve something in the future, and your attitude determines that you will not fail."

"Teacher, you are too proud." Yun Zaiye paused for a moment, and handed over the materials he had compiled together with the manuscript paper, "Take a look, here are the comparisons I can think of about the few questions you raised. Good countermeasure. I also found some relevant information, based on the information, I briefly wrote down today's consultation process, do you see anything that needs to be modified?"

After receiving the information, Lin Xian was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "If I had been so serious back then, I should be well-known all over the country now."

"You are already a very good teacher now."

As the information was turned page by page, the expression on Lin Xian's face became more and more elusive, until he turned to the last page of manuscript paper, Lin Xian's hand that turned the page was in the air, and then looked at Clouds are in the wild.

"You want to adopt Jia Jia?"

"Yes, I think Jiajia's problem is not a problem that can be solved in the short term."

"But you...you can't adopt Jiajia in your situation, right?"

"It can be in my father's name."

"Your father has you, but he doesn't meet the conditions."

"My cousin is the chief lawyer of a Washington NC law firm, so you don't have to worry about that."

So far, Lin Xian has no reason to persuade Yun Zaiye.

"You have to think about it clearly. After the relationship changes, from the perspective of our consulting ethics, you can no longer provide psychological counseling to Jiajia, and other consultants need to intervene."

"I've thought about this, and it's really contradictory, but I still think that a long-term harmonious and stable family environment is more important to Jiajia than a short-term consulting relationship that she can't fully trust." She said, Yun Zaiye took out another adoption procedure from the folder on the side, "I also communicated with my father last night, and he was very supportive of my idea. He told me that he thought we could protect Jiajia."

At this point, Lin Xian finally nodded.

"Then, I wish you success, Jiajia's mother, I will try my best to help you persuade her."

"No need to persuade." Yun Zaiye took back the documents one by one and placed them on the side table, "Jiajia's mother is very different from the image in the record you gave me before, from a more mundane and single perspective Look, she's not a good mother."

Yes, she is not a good mother in the traditional sense.

When Jiajia was violated and beaten by her biological father, she did not choose to take Jiajia away.Not because Jiajia needs a father or a relatively complete family, but because her meager income cannot support her to take Jiajia away.

When Jiajia was bullied and abused by her classmates at school, she didn't go to school to investigate the cause of the problem. She just pointed at the bruises on Jiajia's body time and time again and cursed her daughter as a loser.

It wasn't because she finally knew how to love this daughter and didn't want her to suffer anymore until she was finally willing to leave that animal-like man and take Jiajia to a new living environment.It's just because she has found a place where one party can settle down, and has the capital to live and rely on in the long run.

From the beginning to the end, every change she made seemed to be to find a way out for herself, to ensure that she could retreat completely, and would not be reduced to the point of being homeless.

But Yun Zaiye has no way to stand on the moral high ground and criticize this mother.

Because he remembered that this mother who had always been cowardly and dependent on men, the first time she took up a kitchen knife and rebelled regardless, it was to protect Jiajia.

Because he remembered that when they met for the first time, the mother did not touch the piece of cake in front of her from beginning to end, and hoped that she could pack it up and take it away when she was leaving.That exquisite and expensive cake was a gift she wanted to bring back to Jiajia.

Human nature is so multifaceted, we have never been able to easily judge whether a person is good or bad from one angle and one case.

Jesus said that whoever puts his hand on a pear and looks back is not fit for the kingdom of God.We love because God loved us first.

It is true that in today's society, everyone likes to talk about "born equal", as if they have understood life thoroughly, and put themselves on the commanding heights of morality.

But in reality, there is no such thing as all being created equal.There is only one thing in this world, which is equal to everyone, and that is death.Anything other than that, there is no such thing as equality.

Some people are born with inexhaustible glory and wealth, showing off their ancestors' achievements with piles of banknotes every day, but they don't know how many people have been waiting behind their backs to see his jokes.

Some people are congenitally intelligent, acquired hard work, and happen to come across a wealthy family background, and since then they have been on the rise and soared into the sky.It didn't take long for him to become a leader among his peers, a talented boy who was praised by his relatives and friends.

And some people, who were also given the right to be born in this world by God, were not given the ability to survive here.

When he was in high school, Yun Zaiye heard such a story, a story that really happened and cannot be erased in this era.

The girl sitting at the table behind him told him during one evening self-study——

"I have a nephew in my hometown. It is said that the nephew is actually two years older than me. He was born with dystocia and was almost given up. Later, when he was just one year old, my sister-in-law got breast cancer. It was already late when I came out, and he passed away not long after. After my sister-in-law passed away, my brother stayed away all day and night. In the poor and remote place of our hometown, it didn’t take long for him to get involved with a group of dubious people. gamble."

"The boy was thrown to his grandparents when he was very young, and he followed his grandparents to herd sheep and farm since he was a child... When I first went back to my hometown, do you know where I saw him? In the chicken coop, he Like a group of chickens, locked in a cage. Because he is too young and naughty, grandparents have to go to work in the fields, and they are afraid that it will not be safe to leave him alone at home."

"Later his grandfather also passed away because of uremia. When I went back to my hometown to attend the funeral, I saw him again. Later, when I was chatting with him, I asked him why he didn't go to school. He smiled and told me that it wasn't that he didn't want to go to school. It was because the family had no money to let him go to school. That smile stayed in my heart for a long time, so that every time I wanted to give up, I felt that I was not worthy of giving up."

"My brother went to prison three times because of gambling and theft, but he didn't know how to repent each time. After he came out, he would go back to his old job, making the family miserable and impoverished. The boy relied on his grandmother to cook for others on the construction site. With some money from here, I can live on, and the grandparents and grandchildren are left in the family to depend on each other.”

"But although this boy has never been to school, he is very sensible. When he was able to do some work to share with his grandmother, he went to the construction site to help others, from holding bricks and filtering sand to plastering walls. , as long as he can do it, he will rush to do it."

"Yun Zaiye, do you know that I thought that the hardest and most difficult life of a person is nothing more than this. Then one day when I went home, my dad told me that my hometown called and said that my little nephew was working on the construction site. I fell from a three-story scaffolding and became a vegetative state.”

"It happened to be near the holidays, so my dad took me back to my hometown. When I went to see them, they had already left the hospital and returned home. You know, it was winter, winter in the Northwest. In such a small broken In the house, there is no heating and no stove, and there is a brazier next to the bed, on the bed lies the unconscious grandson, and the silent grandma sits next to her."

"I didn't dare to look too much. I just glanced at Yun Zaye, and I ran out and went back to the car. I knew that if I stayed for a second, I might cry. Then my dad came out, just now As soon as he got in the car, his grandma chased him out, crying and patting the car window..."
