Chapter 15 Calm

Ever since I started working and Ma Yi took care of Jiaqi for me, my life has been like a stream without a twist, without any waves, only memories of similar everyday life.

This feeling makes me feel as if I have gone back to three years ago, three years ago, when I went to school and Aunt Bao Juan took care of Jiaqi, it seemed to ...... The days also passed like this.

For the next period of time, it was like a page of a diary with different contents except for the different dates, and there was not much change from day to day. I still go to work on time every day, and Jiaqi still stays at home and plays with Ma Yike every day, waiting for me to come home every day. And Ma Yike still takes care of Jiaqi every six days a week.

Of course, there was one time when Ma Yike didn't come home on Sunday, and that afternoon, I took Jiaqi with her to play in the central park in the center of the city.

When Ma Yike and I were walking on the green park lawn with Jiaqi in one hand, some passers-by and companions would look at us consciously or unconsciously, and by chance, I heard them talking to me and Ma Yike: What a young couple.

Looking back, I saw Mayike's face flush.

She heard it too.

Seeing Ma Yike's embarrassed expression, I didn't say anything, but I had a strange feeling in my heart. At that moment, I seemed to think that Ma Yike and I were really a couple who came out to play with their children.

It's just a little younger.

Of course, this is something that Mai will not admit. She is a very traditional and conservative and simple girl, not as easy as some open girls to let go of themselves and practice themselves.

Ma is very quiet, most of the time, she does more and says less, but once I tell her to do something, she tries to do it. In every sense of the word, she is a very good servant.

Although we heard the words of passers-by, Ma Yike and I pretended not to hear them, and continued to walk in the park until dusk fell before returning home.

For the next period of time, it was still very calm.

Although there are a lot of small stories in life, for example, one night I took Jiaqi and Mayike to the coffee shop to sit for an hour, and one night I took Jiaqi and Mayike out to buy clothes for Jiaqi, when shopping, Mayike saw a very beautiful coat and tried it on, but the price of the clothes was a bit high, and she had no money to buy it, so I helped her pay for it, and Mayike refused to accept it anyway, and finally I had to say that it didn't matter if I deducted it from your salary little by little in the future, and she reluctantly accepted it。

Although the time spent with Ma Yike is growing, maybe everyone will think that I will have further development with Ma Yike, but unfortunately, although I have known each other for nearly a month, I still feel that my relationship with Ma Yike still has an invisible barrier, and I feel more like an employer and a servant, or a friend, than a couple.

At this point, I don't know whether to say that I really haven't learned the skills of picking up girls or that Ma Yi's ability to grasp the limits of interpersonal interaction is too superb.

Time has been passing for a long time, and as time goes on. As Jia Qi grew older, she knew more and more words, and she became more and more able to speak. Under the teaching of English Dimayike, Jiaqi even spoke several words of English. Of course, it's all very simple, such as appl and pea and so on.

In the days that followed, I learned that in addition to being a teacher for Jiaqi, Ma Yike would also do some cross-stitching at night.

When I got home from work that day, I saw Ma Yike sitting in the courtyard of the villa basking in the sun and threading a needle and thread making a cross-stitch, I was surprised to see this scene, so I curiously went up to ask Ma Yike, and under my inquiry she told me that she had been doing cross-stitch for a while. Ma Yike said that her mother taught her to do cross-stitch, and that a good cross-stitch can be sold for hundreds or even thousands of yuan if she can find a suitable buyer, but it is very time-consuming. She's been doing it for almost a month and she's only made two.

I said let me see your cross-stitch, so Ma Yike showed me two of her large cross-stitches, the first one was a black thread made of "Endless Learning", and the second was a bright and unfinished picture of "Fuwa".

The workmanship is very delicate, and it can be seen that Ma Yike has put a lot of effort into this. Seeing Ma Yike working so hard to do cross-stitch, I also felt a little heartache. Coming out of the countryside, she is under the double pressure of family and career, and it is really not easy for her to work her own.

At that time, I thought about it and said to her, when you are ready, sell me these two cross-stitches, one for 500, a total of 1000, how about it.

Who knew that my words made Ma Yike show an expression of resentment and resentment.

"You don't have to do that. I know you want to help me, but I'll be on my own. Ma Yike bit his lip and said to me.

"I ...... I didn't mean that, your cross-stitch is really good-looking. I don't think the walls of my house are a little decorated, and I don't lose money by buying your cross-stitch. ”

"Thank you, but I'll give you both if you want. I owe you money for a piece of clothing. Ma Yike said with a reluctant smile.

"How, it's taken you a month. Besides, that dress wasn't that expensive. Even if I pay for the clothes, I'll have to pay some money, right?"

"You haven't bought cross-stitch before, you don't understand, my cross-stitch isn't worth a lot of money, I'm glad to change my clothes. These can't add up to 200 or 300. ”

Seeing Ma Yike's stubborn appearance, I didn't say much, and said, "Then you give me one piece, I will buy the second one, and the money for your dress will also be written off." I do like these things, and I can keep a souvenir when you don't work with me anymore. ”

At my insistence, Ma Yike still nodded, promised to give me the Fuwa cross-stitch, and said that he would sell me the cross-stitch at a price of 300 yuan.

At that time, I didn't know that the colorful Fuwa cross-stitch could actually sell for thousands of yuan, far exceeding the price of a piece of clothing.

Of course, I didn't know anything about this kind of product at that time, but I understood from that incident that although Ma Yike was very quiet and simple, sometimes she was also a very stubborn girl with her own principles.

After that, nothing big happened, and time flipped by like a calendar, day after day.

In this way, my first month of internship at Sanxin Pharmaceutical Factory ended.

During this month, I memorized the names and working procedures of the drugs every night, so after a month, I have gradually understood the working procedures and various matters of the pharmaceutical factory, and I know a lot of medicines by heart, which can be regarded as getting out of the nascent stage.

What just made me a little depressed was that during my internship, I hardly saw Mr. Chen, and in a month, Mr. Chen only came to the workshop three times, and only talked to me twice, and in these two hurried meetings, Mr. Chen only asked me how I felt and said that he had not forgotten to arrange for me to work in the future. At that time, of course, I was grateful to Mr. Chen, and Mr. Chen just smiled and said that I should work hard, and said that he was very optimistic about me.

After that, he disappeared from the world again, and generally did not reappear.

At the end of the one-month internship period, in May I started working as a full-fledged technician in the workshop.

Of course, there is not much difference between being a technical employee and an intern, if anything, the salary is higher and the work is a little busier.

Although the salary is still not much, not even as good as Ma Yike, who works as a servant in my family, my life is finally on a stable track, and I am even more full of hope for the future when I think of Mr. Chen's promise that he will find an opportunity to promote me to management in the future. If I can step up to management in the future, even if I don't make much performance, I can have a stable salary of thousands of dollars a month, and when Ma Yike leaves a year later, and Jiaqi also goes to elementary school, I can slowly save some money, so that I don't have to squander the family property left to me by my father.

Over the years, I have used hundreds of thousands of my father's property, I don't want to spend more of his property, I also want to support myself with my own hands.

In my spare time, I even plan for my future life.

For the foreseeable future, my life can be said to be quite rich. I don't have to worry about buying a house, I don't have to support my parents, and I hardly need to spend more than the money I will spend on Jiaqi in the future.

Of course, the premise is that I don't marry and have children.

But is that possible?

Today, I have long passed the era when I was in love with some unrealistic desires all day long.

Over the years, the pressure of life and social pressure have made me gradually realize the responsibility of being the head of the family. Over the past 6 years, I have taken care of Jiaqi, which has made me feel more and more that Jiaqi is my daughter, or my little sister, rather than the doll or maid I expected, and I feel more and more that my dedication to her should be unconditional.

I didn't think about this idea six years ago, but now, everything has gone beyond my expectations.

Lori's cultivation plan,It seems that it has been completely scrapped.。

At the beginning, I was under the guise of raising Jiaqi and then making her my woman, but now I understand that the age gap between me and Jiaqi, as well as Jiaqi's fatherly dependence on me, has completely shattered my unrealistic illusions. She and I really seem to be women or brother and sister.

Really, is that so?

And in the future, I will definitely meet girls other than Jiaqi, and I will have real love and my marriage. Instead of getting along with Jiaqi all the time like now.

All this is only temporary. When one day I start meeting other girls and falling in love with her, maybe all the bad thoughts I had about Jiaqi should really disappear.

It's just that, if there really is such a day, how will I explain everything about Jiaqi to my "wife"?

I can't imagine.

And because I didn't dare to imagine that day, I kept my eyes on the present, at least for now, my life is peaceful, stable, and carefree.

As long as I can live like this, what other luxury can I have?

Maybe my life is destined to be like this, maybe my life will go on like this, there is no turmoil, there is only peace and harmony. I'm going to live like this with Jiaqi until it's a long time before one of us leaves each other.

But I think that the terrible scene is a long time away, and I don't need to worry about what will happen in too many years, I just need to grasp the present, be my present self, and enjoy the peace of the moment.

Isn't it?

Isn't it true that people live to be able to live well before death comes?

So with the idea of seeking peace, I lived a life of unhappiness. The days are so uneventful and go by day by day.

It's plain, it's my life.

As the days went by, watching Jiaqi grow up day by day, I thought more and more like this.

However, I never expected that the unexpected storm would land on my life soon after, and completely swept away my family, career, and life, completely disrupting the ordinary life I had expected.

It was a huge storm, or a turning point, the third turning point in my life after I picked up the death of Jiaqi and my dad.

That turning point came just over two months after my internship.
