Looks like it's time to change the name to a monthly pass, hehe...... What's the matter! γ
Fang's mother came and went in a hurry, until she left, Fang Yuan looked at the various functional skin care products on the table, and there was a feeling that he couldn't find the north, this feeling was a bit erratic, the only real feeling was the half-hungry hunger in his stomach. She stretched out her head to look at the half box of food in the trash can, shook her head, and sighed, although Fang Cai's mother's words made her feel a little uncomfortable, but now whether to find something else to eat to fill her stomach really made Fang Yuan a little entangled.
She found a big paper bag and put away all the skin care products that her mother had brought, Fang Yuan was still a little entangled in whether she wanted to accept such a gift that was not cheap, if she didn't accept it, would it hurt her mother's heart and let the mother-daughter relationship that had just eased a little fall back to the freezing point? What if you accept it? If one day her mother is resentful about something, will she move out of her clichΓ© again, flaunting that she has paid a lot, while accusing the Fang family represented by herself of owing her?
Fang Yuan was really a little scared of these things, she finally recovered from the fact that her family suddenly disintegrated, and then she began to face the source of living expenses and where she would go after graduation, and her sudden independence made her a little at a loss. Now these have just calmed down, and she has gradually adapted to the alienation of her parents, and at this time, her mother suddenly came to restrain herself inexplicably. Buying herself expensive skin care products, Fang Yuan's heart was more panicked than surprised, she no longer had the luxury of expecting herself to be like she had a big dream, as soon as she woke up, life would return to the original state, she could also be as carefree and relaxed as other peers, she had done that kind of daydream. In the first half year of their separation, as both parties remarried, this daydream woke up completely. Now the square circle. I just want to live a peaceful life, and the calmer the better.
When Dai Xu came back from outside, Fang Yuan was still stunned at the paper bag of skin care products. He walked over and stood behind Fang Yuan without saying a word. Fang Yuan was still concentrating on his thoughts at first. But it was soon disturbed, what interfered with her was a faint smell of milk, and her stomach that had just recovered was hooked by the smell of milk, and she actually let out a grunt of hunger, she subconsciously covered her stomach with one hand, and when she turned around, she saw Dai Xu standing behind and looking at herself and laughing. He also held a small paper bag in his hand, with the smell of hot and sweet milk. It's from inside this paper bag.
"Oh, I just went out to answer the phone outside the gate, and suddenly I smelled a special smell, I looked over, it turned out that there was a cake shop near our bureau, this is a newly baked honey cake, it smells very delicious, I bought some, we both tasted it, if it is delicious, there will be a new option sooner in the future." Dai Xu said matter-of-factly, then opened the paper bag, handed it to Fang Yuan, and asked her to take it.
After her stomach gurgling just now, Fang Yuan didn't even have room to lie that she wasn't hungry, she was a little embarrassed to reach out for a piece of cake, and tasted it, it was indeed fragrant and soft, and because it had just been baked, the skin was more or less crunchy, and it felt very comfortable to eat.
Tasting the delicious cake, Fang Yuan quickly thought of the somewhat unreasonable part of Dai Xu's words, first of all, the office of the criminal police team was not on the first floor, even if Dai Xu answered the phone, in the corridor, and in the stairwell, it was understandable, did he need to go all the way to the door and bask in the sun to answer the phone? Secondly, it's hard to say in other places, Fang Yuan is still very familiar with the Public Security Bureau, after all, she has lived in the Public Security Bureau for so long during the internship, and she is active in this neighborhood back and forth, what is around the Public Security Bureau, she knows it clearly, as far as Fang Yuan knows, it is not that there is no cake shop in this vicinity, but it is impossible to smell the fragrance at the gate of the Public Security Bureau, and buy it back by the way, it will take more than ten minutes to buy things back and forth. Finally, there is another point, Dai Xu came in and saw that he was holding a paper bag with a lot of skin care products in his arms, and there was half a box of meals in the trash can next to him, but he didn't ask a word, let alone ask, he didn't even show a curious or surprised expression, how to look at it seems to know in his heart.
"Did you just see my mom coming?" Fang Yuan asked Dai Xu tentatively.
Dai Xu saw that she had found out, so he didn't try to hide it anymore, and nodded with a smile: "Actually, it's quite easy to recognize, your facial features still look more like your mother." β
"Then are you blatantly disagreeing with my mother?" Fang Yuan jokingly pointed to the cake in his hand, "She even threw the lunch I didn't finish in the trash just now, so that I could lose weight." β
Dai Xu sighed: "Actually, why bother? What I don't understand is why people always try to come up with a unified template, what is beautiful, what is excellent, what is handsome, and then one by one, the card is not qualified, not beautiful, not excellent. What does it mean if everyone is the same face? What is the difference between us and the machine? I think it's good for you to be yourself, people who like you will naturally be attracted to you, people who don't like you, even if you rely on suppressing yourself and changing yourself to accommodate and cater, even if the other party accepts it, I'm afraid it will be very reluctant, and you yourself will be very tired, there is no need for this. If you want to be liked, you must first like yourself. β
Fang Yuan heard him say this, and felt that it sounded very reasonable, but unfortunately it was probably more difficult to practice, she asked curiously: "Then do you like your current self?" Since you were a child, you have been so self-assertive, and you have never intended to cater to other people's evaluations or worldly eyes? β
"Well......" Dai Xu smiled a little embarrassedly, and deliberately lowered his voice a little. Fang Yuan said, "I can tell you a real experience of myself, which I have never told anyone." Don't say it, or I'll pass it on three times or two, and if it reaches my mother's ears in the future, I'll suffer! β
Fang Yuan's curiosity was caught by him, and at this time, of course, he nodded vigorously to indicate that he could do it.
Dai Xu cleared his throat and said to Fang Yuan: "I'm not a saint either, so I didn't open my mind so early. When I was a child, in fact, many children were the same, relying on their parents and relatives at home. The praise of classmates and teachers in school affirms oneself and finds oneself to save the value of zΓ i, so in this case, of course, it will inevitably be led by ordinary values. So when I was a kid, I was also a very unavoidable person. I have to work hard to get a double hundred in the back exam, just for the teacher to give me a little red flower on the class evaluation, and I can praise me a few words at the end of the semester at the parent-teacher meeting, so that my parents will be happy, they are happy, and I am happy. I guess this kind of thing sounds like this kind of thing, right? It should be something that every child has experienced when they are young. β
Fang Yuan nodded. This is probably a process that everyone goes through when they are young.
"When I was young, I didn't think anything was there. But when I got older, I realized that something was wrong and it started to go sour. Dai Xu continued, "Among my relatives, it is also a coincidence, there are two cousins of the same age as me, both of whom entered school in the same year, and slowly, the adults in the family began to unconsciously compare their respective children. When I was in elementary school, I was not tall, quite stocky, my two cousins were taller than me, plus the academic performance of primary school students, the gap was not too big, so the two families were still more proud, often showing off in front of my parents that their children were taller and grew faster, no matter how peaceful my parents were, they would still be a little unconvinced over time, so they slowly sprouted the idea of competing with others, of course, this is mainly my mother's thoughts. Later, when I went to junior high school, I don't know how to do it, my height began to jump up uncontrollably, faster than anyone else, and it felt like the pants had changed from just right to slinger pants in a week, and the other two cousins fell behind at this time, plus after the two of them went to junior high school, they were also a little playful, and their academic performance began to be not so good. That's when I suddenly realized that I couldn't go on like this, and it would be very troublesome if I went on like this. β
Fang Yuan was confused, to her ears, Dai Xu could be said to be proud of the spring breeze, and his parents were also very proud and satisfied with him, why would this be "very troublesome in the future"?
Dai Xu saw the blankness in her expression, and said with a smile: "I found out at the time, because my latecomers are on top, so that my mother not only raises her eyebrows, but also has a little bit of momentum to maintain the undefeated honor, and usually chatting and talking, she has already begun to plan her future plan for me, in her opinion, my future is full of all kinds of possibilities, so she can plan as much as she wants, and after the planning, I just have to work hard to achieve it, but I thought, in this way, what is the difference between me and the donkey who pulls the mill?" People will never be satisfied, one goal is achieved, the next goal will naturally arise, if I endlessly meet the expectations of my parents, then my life will slowly become a puppet show. So I made a decision at that time, I had to change this state, my mother wanted me to be an elite person, study well, have a high IQ, and have a smart face, but I especially don't like those days, I think that kind of life like wearing a mask every day is acting to entertain others, and it is I who is tired, and there is no need, so I began to pretend to be special according to their wishes, of course, my appearance also helped a lot, When I was in the third year of junior high school, I was already 190 cm, because I like sports, so my body frame is also wide, which really does not meet the kind of scholar image that my mother hopes to create, after achieving the success of the first step, after being admitted to a key high school steadily, I began to implement the second step of my life saving plan. β
Fang Yuan looked at Dai Xu curiously, waiting for him to continue, she faintly felt that the story Dai Xu was going to tell next would definitely be very interesting, so she was reluctant to even interject to ask, she just wanted to know the answer quickly.
Dai Xu said this, he was a little embarrassed, he touched his head, and said: "Don't think I'm bragging, after I went to high school, in fact, I began to have goals for what I wanted to do in the future, and I thought at that time, I want to be a police officer in the future, but the problem is that with my grades at that time, my parents and family will definitely have a more promising plan for me than the police profession sounds, so I have to start paving the way for myself in advance, in addition to this, because of good grades, So the two cousins are always staring at my every move, probably trying to find a chance to turn the tables, so it's quite boring, I also feel bored, so I began to do it every time I took the exam, picking the questions that I think I must be sure to be able to do it right, after doing it well, I estimate that the score can cope with the past, and the rest will answer randomly, I'm a person, I don't necessarily have other skills, but the ability to evaluate the score is really high, so the results of each exam are basically similar to what I expected, Grades remain between moderate to upper average. β
"Huh? If you say something like this, won't those relatives who are compared with you have more to say? Fang Yuan was puzzled by Dai Xu's approach.
Dai Xu smiled and shook his head: "I did at the beginning, but I have always maintained such a medium level very steadily, and they can at most say that I have no potential, no stamina, and there is nothing to say no more, but after saying this kind of thing a few times, I feel that I am not fresh, tired, and I am too lazy to stare at me anymore, my parents felt unwilling at first, and then according to the character of the two of them, they accepted the reality, but I know it in my heart, I know what my actual level is, so when I took the college entrance examination, I applied for the best public security school, and my homeroom teacher persuaded me for a long time, so that I should not be unrealistic, I would delay myself, I didn't say anything, and then the list was issued, I got the notice, the teacher was very surprised, my parents were also very surprised, they were not only surprised, but also very surprised, because in their cognition, I couldn't get into that school at all, so I was very happy.
