Chapter 20: Divergent Consciousness

Feng Nan quickly finished his work and drove to the high-speed rail station. I arrived half an hour early, so I swiped my mobile phone in the car and dropped all kinds of unread WeChat messages one by one.

In a lazy relaxation, Feng Nan suddenly swiped the enrollment announcement of the Happy ABC Kindergarten official account, Feng Nan sat up as if he was facing a great enemy, and muttered while opening the information: "Die, when did this be sent, I won't miss it." ”

Slide your finger across the screen quickly. Feng Nan concentrated and quickly read the announcement with words in his mouth. His back relaxed, he exhaled, and said to himself, "It's okay, it's okay, it's in time." After saying that, he opened the calendar again, marked the time of the next Monday, and recorded the reminder event of "registration". Before getting out of the car, Feng Nan put on a little lipstick for himself, pressed powder on his cheeks, and walked towards the old place humming a small tune.

When he first came to pick up the station, Feng Nan had no experience and always stood in front of an outbound gate. After the crowd came out in an uproar, Feng Nan's petite figure was buried in the crowd. She couldn't look at Li Feng, and Li Feng couldn't find her, so she called in a hurry, only to find that she was standing in the wrong position. After a few times, she found experience, stood a little farther, saw a little wider, and even sublimated to the understanding of the pattern once, and made up a training story for herself to write down.

There are not many people picking up at the high-speed rail station, and the sparse and deserted people form an interesting contrast with the upcoming wave of "migratory birds". This high-speed train from Shanghai arrived at City A is the terminal station, and most of the people who get off the train are young people, 25-35 years old, and most of them are men. Sometimes when you can see a couple coming back, Feng Nan will think: Did they come back to see their children?

Feng Nan himself could not accept being separated from the child. Almost all of her business trips in the Yangtze River Delta can go out early and return late, sometimes when she arrives home, Li Xiaoman has already fallen asleep, although she did not say a word to the child, but she felt relieved when she saw the child's quiet sleeping face. Only when he arrived in Shanghai, Feng Nan would choose to transfer to the subway from Zhongshan Park Station to Li Feng, and lived in the world of two people, and every time Li Feng arrived at this time, he would sigh that it was a pity that his son was not there. Feng Nan thought: When men and women meet, love unites them, and once they give birth to children, their spirits will be concerned about this new place of flesh and blood until the moment of death.

The child does not belong to the parents, but a part of the parents belongs to the child.

After Li Feng left the station, he saw that Feng Nan was only one person, and asked, "Huh?" What about my son? ”

"I just got off work and didn't come home." Feng Nan took advantage of the situation to hold Li Feng's arm.

Li Feng sighed, pouted and kissed Feng Nan, and said meaningfully: "Then let's go back to our own house tonight?" ”

"Why?" Feng Nan glanced up at Li Feng, and after reading the deep meaning in his eyes, he reached out and twisted it on Li Feng's back, and roared, "It seems that you have been well fed and warmly dressed recently, man!" ”

Li Feng grinned in pain, and was about to speak, when he heard Feng Nan say coquettishly: "Go home first to see your son and then go back, dead ghost." ”

Li Feng got the order, laughing so that the wrinkles appeared at the end of his eyes, he put his arms around Feng Nan, rubbed his chin on her hair, and walked forward quickly.

When he got to the car, Li Feng asked while adjusting the driver's seat, "You have been working a lot of overtime recently?"

"Hmm," Feng Nan poured out what had happened at work recently to Li Feng, usually complaining in the form of dotted complaints on WeChat, and only after meeting could he sort out in detail.

After listening to Feng Nan, Li Feng explained to her seriously: "No matter the rest, don't tire yourself to the point, don't rush to do it slowly." ”

Feng Nan nodded, and said, "Hey, what did you say Donald was hesitant to say to me today?" Am I really going to be made redundant? ”

Li Feng replied: "How is it possible? To be laid off, and give you so much work? ”

Feng Nan also felt that it made sense when he heard it, and asked, "What are you going to tell me?" ”

"Maybe people won't be able to speak, didn't you say that he was already sullen?"

"Huh?" Feng Nan sneered and replied, "What did I say?"

Li Feng glanced at her, snorted, and said indifferently: "It's nothing if I'm really laid off."

"Cut," Feng Nan stretched out his hand and gave Li Feng a palm, and replied; "You can't hope for me to be good." After speaking, she stretched out another palm, opened five fingers, and continued: "I only have five years left in my golden life in the workplace, five years!" I'm counting on another step. ”

Li Feng shook his arm that was slapped by Feng Nan, and answered: "Yes, if you are laid off, take your children to Shanghai with me, you will definitely be better off developing in Shanghai than at home."

Feng Nan heard his words, snorted, and said impatiently: "Pull it down, I will take the child to Shanghai with you, can I still develop my career?" I went to develop my career, who will take Li Xiaoman? What about you? My mom won't run after me. ”

"Let's bring it ourselves," Li Feng replied, "If you go to work, we can hire a nanny." ”

"Babysitter?" Feng Nan turned around, glared at him and said, "What are you thinking?" Childcare isn't just about spending money on hiring someone. Can the babysitter educate him? Can the babysitter keep him company? Besides, how can I rest assured of the nanny. Didn't there be news some time ago, the ...... of the nanny who abducted the child"

"Ah, don't take special cases as a typical example," Li Feng said urgently.

"Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case!" Feng Nan's voice was a little higher, she was frightened by her voice, brushed her hair, and leaned back to her seat to adjust her emotions.

After a while, Li Feng said in a deep voice: "Every time I talk to you about this topic, you talk too far and avoid the important." ”

Feng Nan adjusted his breathing and replied, "You have been talking to me a lot about this topic recently, I am very annoying and unrealistic. ”

"How unrealistic?" Li Feng replied; "Everyone else can take care of their own children, but it's not realistic for us to take care of our own children?"

Feng Nan felt that her emotions began to fluctuate again, she suppressed it, and said softly but quickly: "You don't want to develop a little better in the past two years and just float." We don't have the conditions for stable development in Shanghai now, can we buy a house? Even if you sell the house here and go to Jiading to buy it, the pressure behind it will be very great. What do we do if something goes wrong with your work again? ”

"Feng Nan, you can't give up eating because of choking. There are many people who have a foothold in Shanghai, some are better than us, and some are not as good as us, why do we have to compare with those who are good? Li Feng replied.

"Because I'm such a person," Feng Nan sighed deeply and replied, "I'm the kind of person who just wants to be sure of happiness." ”

Li Feng also sighed, he could fully understand what Feng Nan meant, in essence, he and Feng Nan were similar people, without so much utilitarianism and ambition, and he did not regard Shanghai as the end of his life. To be precise, he ran away for two years, and began to gradually find the end of his life, in the first year, he was very clear that his end point was in City A, but slowly, running around and alienation made Li Feng still feel that everything was empty, like a flying kite in the sky, there was a rope to lead, but more of a feeling was still wind, the stronger the wind, the more he felt that the rope that pulled him would break.

Feng Nan saw that Li Feng didn't say anything anymore, and said to himself: "Don't make trouble, I'll go to register the child on Monday, it's the bilingual kindergarten I told you about before, Xiaoman should be good there." ”

Li Feng shook his head with a wry smile and said, "It's not trouble, you didn't understand what I meant." I'm still saying that we're going to be together. He paused slightly, and without waiting for Feng Nan to refute him, he said again: "But you are right, I said that I want to go to Shanghai to study in kindergarten, but I don't have specific actions." After all, I didn't prepare for it. ”

Feng Nan didn't say anything more, turned his head to look out the window, until the car stopped, Li Feng grabbed her hand and said, "I'll work hard to give you certain happiness." All right? ”

Feng Nan felt that her eyes were moist, she took off her seat belt, crossed over and hugged Li Feng in an awkward position.
