Chapter 20: Hurry up and find a partner?
The marketing work of the first phase of the project is on the right track, and An Manman and his team can finally take a break in addition to adjusting the channels and methods of promotion according to data and traffic.
······
The construction of the first and second phases of the project on Jensen's side is also in order, and with the supervision of assistant Zhao Dali and other engineering managers, Jensen's work in the past two days can also be relaxed for a while.
······
On this day, when Jenson came home from work, he cooked dinner by himself as he usually did when he didn't work overtime, enjoying a quiet and lonely single life!
After eating and cleaning up, he was about to dig out some manuscript drawings to see if there was anything that needed to be adjusted, when the WeChat video came.
······
Dingdong ~ Dingdong ~ Dingdong ~ Dingdong ~
Jensen saw that it was his mother, and quickly picked it up:
"Son, are you still working?"
On the other end of the video, the mother smiled and gently admonished.
"No, just check the information! Are you and Dad okay at home? ”
Jenson looked at his mother with a smile, although his mother was nearly 55 years old, her body was strong and healthy, her eyes and eyebrows were still gentle, and her wrinkles became more and more obvious when she loved to laugh.
"Okay, okay. Look, your dad is here, too! ”
At the other end of the video, another white-haired old man appeared, with kind eyebrows and eyes, looking at Jenson with a smile:
"Mori, is the work going well?"
"Well, it's going well, but I've been busy with work lately, and I don't have time to go back to see you and my mother..."
Jenson's parents watched the video in a hurry, smiling like a child who didn't grow up.
"No, no, you work hard, your mother and I are fine, don't worry~"
······
Every time they video with their parents, they are always worried about Jensen who is outside, Jensen's heart is warm, but at the same time, he feels that he is very unfilial, he goes out to work all the year round, and he can't accompany his parents well.
In the past two years, her mother's body has become more and more round under the care of her father, like a lucky little old lady, and Jenson will always tease her father in the video:
"Dad, you see that you are taking care of your mother more and more mellow, you have to control it, take my mother outdoors more, when you are old, it is easy to be three high..."
"This is a blessing from your father, I don't worry about it..." The mother glanced affectionately at his father, and then smiled in response to Jensen.
"Uh-huh, remember, I have to let your mom eat less and move more... I'll take her to the park every day from tomorrow..." The father glanced at the mother with doting eyes.
"What do you say like you're walking a dog..." Mother was a little reluctant, but she was happy.
······
Jensen thought to himself: In these days, I'm afraid that the only one who doesn't worry about getting lucky is his mother.
The old couple looked at Jensen again, stopped talking, and whispered softly on the other end of the video.
Jensen looked at the second elder and seemed to have something, so he asked:
"What's wrong? Mom and Dad, is there something wrong? ”
"No, it's nothing!" Father's response.
"Hey, it's not a big deal, just thinking about it, you're not too young..." Mother took over the topic, but she didn't finish her sentence.
"Man, career is more important, Sendu is an adult, he will have his own plans." The father weakly wanted to end the topic.
On the other end of the video, Jenson heard his parents whisper:
"The last time Sen talked about a girlfriend, he was rushing to get married, but the result was yellow, and he was bitter."
"I know, but after so many years, Sen will be 35 soon, he is not in a hurry, and we are also in a hurry as parents."
······
After the parents said a few words briefly, they turned to the video, and the mother said in a very serious tone:
"Hey, son, Mom doesn't urge you, we can't rush this object and marriage, if there is no suitable one, we would rather lack it. But if there are nice girls around, then you should work hard or fight for it. ”
"Men can't be too passive, this good girl, you have to look at it with your heart!" The mother continued to add.
······
Regarding the matter of emotional marriage, the attitude of the parents has always been open-minded, and it is all up to Jensen to make his own decisions. Jensen knew in his heart: It may be because he is getting older year by year, and his parents are getting older, so the issue of emotional marriage seems to have to be looked at directly.
Lying on the bed, Jenson recalled what his mother said in the video today: If there is no suitable one, it is better to have a shortage than to have it. Sure enough, the mother's attitude was the same as Jensen's emotional attitude.
······
He thought of his father and mother, who was four years older than his mother, and his father often said that it would be a blessing for him to marry his mother.
The mother is petite, in the eyes of the father like a little woman, is a sensible and generous woman, the father goes out early and returns late every day to make money to support the family, no matter how late, the mother will wait for the father to come home, give him hot meals, prepare hot water; And my father, as long as he is resting at home, will personally share the housework, from cooking to cleaning the house, because he always says that his mother usually takes care of the house is already very hard, so his rest day is also his mother's rest day.
His father works in a public institution and has a stable income, so the family can be regarded as well-off, but his mother still teaches Jane to be diligent and thrifty.
My mother likes to keep the house in order, she often says that she doesn't spend what she shouldn't buy, she spends her money on the blade, and the items at home are never added when they run out, and she never hoards them.
As long as Jensen is interested, his parents will let him try, when he was a child, Jensen said that he wanted to learn to paint, so his parents did not hesitate to choose a professional training institution in his hometown, so he let Jensen study for 2 years; Later, Jensen also learned guitar for two years······
Jensen recalled that when he was a child, he was also enthusiastic about learning things, but his parents never blamed him for not persevering, but encouraged Jenson and said: Only when you try it, you will know what you like!
It is true, therefore, later Jensen found that he was interested in decoration design, so he studied all the way, from applying for a major to employment, on this road, the tolerance and acceptance given by his parents made Jensen feel that he was happy.
Thinking of this, Jensen is glad not only for the support and understanding of his parents, but also for the imprint of his parents' values on his own feelings and marriages, because the love that Jensen sees in his parents is that although there is no romance of rose diamond rings, it is you have me, I have you, and I have you, and the little guards in the daily tea, rice, oil and salt.
It is with their mutual support that there is now a warm and excellent Jensen, and it is also the influence of his parents that makes him even more reluctant to give in to his love.
Therefore, he secretly hopes that he can find a partner who can live with each other for the rest of his life.
······
However, is this a bit too demanding?
Nowadays, young people's marriage and love values are open, not to mention, they tend to be more realistic, the reciprocal relationship between feelings and money is magnified, and the innocence of a relationship and the thickness of money are tied together.
From the last relationship, Jensen deeply realized that even if he had a certain amount of financial strength now, he was not willing to accept an innocent, let alone the relationship he expected.
Before going to bed, Jenson thought about what had happened in the past two days, thought of Luo Xiaoli's inability to communicate, and thought of his parents' concern, he sighed deeply, and unconsciously took out the book "How Good Would You Be If You Understood Me" from the drawer of the bedside table, yes, how good it would be if you understood me.
Then, he took out his mobile phone to look up Mo Yan's poem, and secretly read it in his heart:
Everyone has a dead end, they can't get out by themselves, others can't break in, I put the deepest secret there, you don't understand me, I don't blame you, it's just that if you understand me, how good it would be.
······
I still remember your voice and smile years ago as if it were yesterday, but you have forgotten my name, or never remembered, but I would rather you have forgotten than admit that I am yours dispensable.
······
Many people ask me why you have to be so self-deceptive, and I laugh, because only in the world where I deceive myself······
You're not me, so I don't know how deep my affection is, you don't understand me, that's why you think I'm hypocritical and willful, in fact, I'm just a clear love and hate.
You don't understand me, I don't blame you, it's just that if you had understood me a little bit, how good it would be, maybe we would have a different ending at the moment, but unfortunately, it's just a thought.
······
Reading this, Jensen flipped through the book again, especially some of the moments that moved him very warmly, yes, from the beginning, he was fascinated by this book, to be precise, the story in this book, the two people are not comfortable getting along...
Jensen thought to himself: What kind of person is that "Thousand Knots"? can actually think about Jensen's expectations for love so thoroughly through pen and paper...
And when it comes to comfort, Jensen suddenly thought of An Manman, he felt that since he met An Manman and had contact with her, An Manman had given him a very relaxed and comfortable feeling.
Jensen's mind came up with a smile on his mind, and the bands slipped off... Especially the last time I saw Shi Xiaobo confess An Manman, and I knew from Luo Cheng that Shi Xiaobo came to LRO Company for An Manman, Jensen suddenly envied Shi Xiaobo's infatuation; Immediately, I was glad that An Man was still not accepting Shi Xiaobo...
After a while, contradictory emotions struggled in his heart, and he unconsciously opened an enclosed circle of friends, yo, this girl is the same as him, she is an inactive person, and there is only one dynamic:
It is said that the novel is fake, but who would believe it. Is this what the author expects?
The attached map happens to be the broken wooden bridge of the artificial sea where He Anman went to the Beihai area last time for a field trip.
Seeing this dynamic, Jenson was actually a little surprised, isn't this feeling exactly what he also experienced after watching "How Good You Should Be If You Knew Me", is it the same with An Manman?
By the way, why do you keep thinking about An Man, why do you care about An Manman?
Jenson tried to control himself, but he still didn't understand why An Manman would post such a dynamic, what was An Manman thinking in his heart?
······
Yes, since he knew that An Man Man was single, Jenson had begun to care about An Man unconsciously, and he only admitted all this in hindsight...
