Raw rice boiled into small porridge

Father He and Mr. Ye's study had been talking for three hours. Later that day, He Tian asked Ye Jiawen what did my father tell you?

Ye Jiawen looked melancholy, and he said very sadly, his father-in-law told me that he had practiced taekwondo, and if I bullied you, he would come and fight me.

He Tian has already adapted to Ye Jiawen's acting personality, so he watched him silently. Ye Jiawen laughed a few times to himself, and said that what my father told me can be summed up in three levels. I told some interesting stories about you from childhood to adulthood, and concluded that you are a kind and lovely boy; secondly, I asked about my situation, and told me that you had called him before and said that I There are some historical issues, my father expressed his appropriate concerns, and implicitly expressed his view that I am not worthy of you; the third is to tell me some principles of being a man, especially being a man, and finally mentioning Point me, if I don't understand these principles, he can teach me until I understand, if I still don't understand, he will be impolite.

In general, our dad just felt that his good cabbage had been raped by pigs, and then reluctantly educated me, a pig that was still saved.

He Tian covered his face and laughed, he probably understood his father's mood.

Ye Jiawen stayed at He's house for another two days, and then he was about to return to City S. Before parting, He's parents asked him to bring a lot of things, including a list of books for self-cultivation that his father made for him, and a book made by Teacher Sun himself. Assorted pickles.

Ye Jiawen was looking at the rolling sea of ​​clouds outside the window on the plane, thinking about the conversation He Tian's father had with him.Dad told him that He Tian has always disliked his own name, especially when people call him "He Tiantian" seriously. He thinks this name is too childish and doesn't look like a boy at all, so when he was a child, He Tian liked super Those stories about heroes saving the world, I thought it was an expression of strength and masculinity, but he had always been thin and delicate, and he looked like someone who needed to be saved, so he had to internalize this heroic complex into In my heart, I have had a paranoid passion for illusory things like fairness and justice since I was a child.

And we have always cared too much for him, Dad said, this is our biggest failure in his education.He has hardly experienced any setbacks at such an age. The biggest failure should be that he performed so-so in the college entrance examination and did not go to the major he chose.Tiantian doesn't understand that the world is not black or white but gray, and he has never experienced the despair of trying to do something but still being helpless.I have always felt that there are only two possibilities for a child like him in the future, either we will still have a strong and reliable person to escort him all the way after a hundred years, and artificially create a safe haven for him, or let him go through some wind and rain. Only when he dies and is born later can he truly grow.

Ye Jiawen said very firmly at the time, I don't need him to go through the wind and rain, I will protect him from the wind and rain.

Dad looked at him with a smile, poured him a cup of tea, and continued, Tiantian was later transferred to major in social work. At first, he was unwilling. He told me he wanted to repeat the exam, but I said no. Urgent, you try it first, if you still find it boring, you can drop out of school.Not long after, he came back and said that he found a social practice job, which was very meaningful, and he didn’t want to change his major. I asked him why it was meaningful, and he said that he could see many different people, and they seemed to live in another world. .In fact, I had mixed feelings at the time, because this major was really unpopular, the employment rate of the corresponding major was not high, and the salaries of practitioners in this industry were generally relatively low.Dad sighed faintly, and said with a smile, we can only save more money for him, so that he will not worry about his livelihood for his ideals in the future.

You are not a parent, and you can’t understand our worries about gains and losses. You want to hold him in the palm of your hand, but worry that he will be protected too well; you want him to have self and pursuit, but you worry that he will be incompatible with the mainstream values ​​of society.Now that you are in a relationship, you will have a very important impact on my children. We cannot ask you what to do. To be honest, I don’t know what is the most correct way, but I still want to remind you, I hope you can Cherish He Tian, ​​because he is worth cherishing.This is my expectation and requirement as a father.We will always stand behind Tiantian, if you hurt him, we will definitely not agree.

Ye Jiawen felt that the responsibility was heavy, and this pressure became more profound and concrete after he returned home and carefully looked at the gifts.

Among the gifts was a beautifully packaged box. When I opened it, it was a box of top-grade lotus seeds.Ye Jiawen thought for a while, "Lotus seeds come into my heart, "pity the son into my heart", this is not lotus seeds, but a heavy love.

He took a few lotus seeds and put them on a string, and put them in a conspicuous place in the cabinet. He rubbed his chin and looked again and again. He felt that these were not a bunch of lotus seeds, but an invisible chain that bound him.Fortunately, he was willing to be tied up like this, and he was willing to do so.

This father-in-law was a piece of old ginger, and his calm expression made people cry. Ye Jiawen saw it, and he was very convinced.

……

He Tian ended his winter vacation early and returned to City S a few days before school started. The unanimous opinion of his parents was that he had a boyfriend and forgot about his parents, and he couldn't wait to reunite with that Mr. Ye. He Tian didn't deny it, he I really miss Ye Jiawen, but there is another more important reason - Ding Xiaoxiang disappeared again.

After coming out of the closet and paying New Year's greetings, He Tian called Ding Xiaoxiang to greet him, but the number couldn't get through again, so He Tian went to greet Mr. Hu from the social work center. I contacted Ding Xiaoxiang, but I haven't contacted him in the past few days during the Chinese New Year.

He Tian called the methadone clinic again. The nurse on duty said that Ding Xiaoxiang hadn't shown up for about ten days. He Tian put down the phone and looked at the birthday present for Ding Xiaoxiang on his desk in a daze.

It was a car model. He remembered that Ding Xiaoxiang said that he liked cars, and his childhood wish was to be a racing driver.

The first time He Tian met Ding Xiaoxiang was when he went to the social work center on his first day.It was the hottest time in City S. You could fry eggs on the road and roast meat on the roof of the car. He Tian was a bit of a road idiot, and he almost turned into a grilled person on the winding road to find the social work center.He felt dizzy and felt that he might have suffered from heat stroke, so he managed to buy a bottle of water, leaning against a tree to rest in the shade, and there was another boy standing under the shade, pretending that the society owed him 800 Looking at Wan Wan, the boy was secretly looking at He Tian with a cigarette in his mouth, frowning as he watched, and said in a very annoying tone: "Hey, are you okay? Why is your face so pale? You won't Die? I don’t know if you’re dead..."

He Tian supported the tree trunk and smiled weakly: "I'm fine, I'll just take a rest."

Ding Xiaoxiang looked him up and down again, watching his sweat flow down his face like a stream, and laughed, "Did you make it out of ice? It will melt in the sun..." He said, handing over a small box of cooling oil, " You'll feel better if you put this on your temples."

He Tian said thank you for taking it, and finally healed under the joint action of water and balm. He returned the balm to Ding Xiaoxiang, and asked him casually if he knew how to get to the "Chuyu Social Work Service Center".

Ding Xiaoxiang raised his chin at him, and said with a look of disgust: "Isn't that right in front of you, are you blind? I'll go too, you come with me."

In this way, He Tian followed Ding Xiaoxiang to the social work center, and Hu Xinian received them.He looked at He Tian, ​​who was neatly dressed and white, and then at Ding Xiaoxiang, who was shabby with messy hair and earrings, and said, "I've only dated two people this afternoon, so it should be you?" He didn't wait for an answer, but directly handed over two forms. He Tian got the information registration form for interns, and Ding Xiaoxiang got the registration form for community drug addicts.

When filling out the form, Ding Xiaoxiang bit his pen boredly, and squinted at He Tian's. Suddenly his eyes lit up, he took the pen out of his mouth, pointed at He Tian's ID number, and said pleasantly: "Hey, we two One day birthday."

He Tian went to look at Ding Xiaoxiang's watch, and found that the numbers on his date of birth were very large and spaced apart, and they were all written in a grid.He Tian felt uncomfortable just looking at it, wishing he could write another copy for him.is not that right?He Tian pouted, this boy was born in the same year, the same month and the same day as him.

Because of this initial help and coincidence, He Tian paid more attention to Ding Xiaoxiang in his future work, and felt more and more that this boy is like a little hedgehog that no one loves and loves, and he is worse than a hedgehog. He has thorns inside and outside. Not only stab others but also stab yourself.Such Ding Xiaoxiang made He Tian full of sympathy and help, and at the same time aroused his subtle competitiveness. He thought that the first client he served would definitely be the first successful case in his career, and he firmly believed in it. suspect.

It was not the first time that Ding Xiaoxiang disappeared without reason from the supervision, but this time He Tian felt uneasy. He started to pack his things that day and planned to go back to school as soon as possible.

Mom and Dad sent He Tian to the airport, and Teacher Sun gave He Tian a hug of love for the first time, and her father teased her: "Mr. Sun, you know that you are in a hurry now? Your son has a relationship, so you are jealous, right?" Bar?"

Teacher Sun pretended not to hear, patted He Tian on the shoulder and said, "You don't need to tell me if you have no money, just ask your father for it."

Dad suddenly turned into a discouraged ball, and said depressedly: "Mr. Sun, to be reasonable, my monthly pocket money is no more than my son's."

He Tian got on the plane with a smile. After taking off, he looked at the smaller and smaller buildings, trees, and pedestrians. He always felt that his parents were standing below, and he also looked up at the plane, watching him fly more and more. Gao, farther and farther away, flew to other hometowns, and one day, he would regard his hometown as his hometown, and take an encounter as his destined destination, and this destination has nothing to do with his parents.

Thinking of this, He Tian suddenly wanted to cry again.

……

City S is still full of flowers and willows, without any hint of winter. He Tian put down his luggage in the empty dormitory and came to the social work center. Most of the staff have already returned to work after the Spring Festival holiday.

Hu Nianxi told He Tian that according to what he learned in the past two days, Ding Xiaoxiang's mother was arrested on the spot for stealing from a shopping mall in order to avoid debts a few years ago, and she has already been sent to the police station. Because the amount involved is relatively large, she should be sentenced. After that, Ding Xiaoxiang never appeared again.

Hu Nianxi also said: "We are not the only client. He has not changed his situation after repeated admonitions. He has filed a report according to the procedures. The methadone center has also reported 'unexplained loss', He Tian," Hu Nianxi patted him kindly. Shoulder: "This person has nothing to do with us, you can put your time and energy on other things."

He Tian nodded, raised his face after a while and asked, "Then can I look for him myself?"

Hu Nianxi was very helpless: "In such a big world, where do you go to find someone you want to hide?"

He Tian thought for a while and said stubbornly: "I can go to places he might go first, such as the Internet cafe near his home, and those few bars... My birthday is coming soon, and so is his birthday Now, I have another gift for him."
