Before the sun breaks into the curtains, the moonlight clings on the branches, evoking a series of birdsong.

The sound of the rope at the door made An Ji, who was a light sleeper, squint and open his eyes a little impatiently, and sat up from the bed in a chaotic manner.

A figure flashed, paused for a while, and then fixed at the door, An Ji couldn't help but feel an alarm in his heart.

Raising his eyes to catch a glimpse of the clock, An Ji realized that his parents were at home at this time, and he was instantly relieved, and raised his hand to touch the switch of the bedroom light.

"Ahem...... You're awake. The father pretended to be casual and coughed twice, but the speed of this reaction had already proved An Jianing's weakness, "I have something to tell you, and I am embarrassed to call you." ”

has been best friends with Midsummer for a long time, and An Ji can't help but feel a little bit of the former's wantonness, rolling her eyes at An Jianing in her heart, and responding casually: "Hmm." ”

The daughter's reply was very cold, so An Jianing shook and shook at the door of the house, and was not embarrassed to walk in directly.

"So early, Dad, what do you want to find me?" yawned, and An Ji, who was completely sleepless, could naturally see her father's predicament, "My mother hasn't woken up yet, right?" Let's be quiet. ”

"Hmm." An Ji roughly guessed what An Jianing meant, nodded, and motioned for the latter to come into the house.

"Your mother's unit has also started school, and she is very tired every day, so try to let her rest more when she has time." Pulling out the stool that An Ji usually uses for work, An Jianing sat down by himself, "Dad, don't tell your mother about it." ”

Listening to An Jianing's second half of the sentence, An Ji knew what his father was going to do with what he was talking about-no wonder the former hesitated at the door for a long time and didn't dare to come in.

"I'm doing a drama with your Uncle Ning."

As a father, he thought that his sentence could reach the point of 'not being shocked and dying', but he didn't expect his daughter's reaction to be extremely flat.

If it weren't for An Ji's next words, I was afraid that An Jianing would think that the former hadn't woken up yet.

"I know, but I can't think of anything I can do to help? Stage costume design? On the way to pursue his dreams, he can't do without his father's encouragement, and An Ji also hopes that his father's wish can be realized now.

"I've been doing everything else around me lately, and I have time to do it except for weaving."

Once hit the south wall, because you dare to pick it up and start again because you see the success of others, this kind of thing to tell anyone, it is also a very risky investment.

Therefore, An Jianing is already full of pressure now, and this pressure from himself is far more terrible than the pressure given by the outside world.

Therefore, An Ji pays attention to the way she speaks in every sentence, so as not to add a burden to her father.

"It's not just about costume design." An Jianing is sitting in a precarious position, the current father and daughter are not like father and daughter, but more like two literary and art workers discussing cooperation, "I want to start with the folk stories of Hangzhou and even Zhejiang." ”

"On stage, Hang Luo is also expressive."

Most of the costumes on stage are made of visually striking fabrics, colors and designs, and Hangluo may not be the best choice.

However, if it can be cleverly combined with a series of scientific and technological innovations such as stage lighting and camera close-up, it can reflect a completely different stage texture from chemical fiber fabrics.

An Ji still has some understanding of this aspect, understands his father's needs, and readily responds: "Okay, then what are the requirements." ”

"For example, is there a corresponding script?" An Ji spread his hands and signaled An Jianing to bring it as soon as possible if he had a prepared script, "In this way, we can also do the design for the corresponding actors, and this situation probably needs a design team to consider comprehensively, I'll go find my classmates." ”

"I don't think so, we only did a part of this at the beginning, and finally made it into a series, and there weren't many actors in the early stage."

An Jianing's words faintly revealed a bit of sadness. Even with Uncle Ning Yunfan's previous movies as a guarantee, two people who have not made much achievements in drama will not attract many good actors.

finally organized the former lineup roughly, and the well-known drama actors were not invited. Even if it's not to make money, famous actors have to consider not smashing their own signboards because of the quality of choreography and directing.

Fortunately, the two listened to Ning Yunfan's words and tried to make a change. learned from An Ji's three ways of filming short dramas, and found many college student actors, who were both active and trying. Just like 'Xiao An' and 'Xiao Ning' at that time, he could do whatever it took to love him.

"Okay, then I'll call Midsummer over tomorrow, Ning Yunfan and their crew should be almost finished, and I'll call him if he's okay."

"Okay, Dad also called your Uncle Ning over, see what you have specific requirements, just mention it to the two of us...... The father and daughter also have to settle the accounts, but first on credit, we will earn money for you to pay to the account. ”

The sound of the car horn outside the window was a little harsh, He Yanqing was already making breakfast in the kitchen, and An Jianing, who had been chatting with his daughter in the house for nearly half an hour, finally stood up and was about to move to the kitchen to help.

Different from the hesitation and caution when he came, An Jianing, who received an affirmative reply from his daughter, floated up, and the cotton long sleeves on his body that were thinly dressed by An Jianing and left on the grounds of 'comfortable to wear' were glowing with a pale yellow light.

Looking at his father's high-spirited appearance, An Ji didn't want to be punctured. But An Jianing's drama career is now back on track, no matter what, her mother also has the right to know, and it should be a happiness shared by the family.

What's more, listening to Ning Yunfan's meaning, the plans of the two elders are not small, and they want to do a national tour in the future. If you don't talk openly and honestly with your mother at this time, it will not only be a sign of evasion, but also you will not be able to untie the knot in your mother's heart for many years.

"By the way, Dad, I think my mom should already know."

An Jianing didn't ask his daughter He Yanqing what he knew, and he didn't even hesitate for a moment - in fact, this matter had long been tacitly known at home.

After so many years of old husbands and wives, even if they don't mention the intersecting circles of friends, An Jianing actually has nothing that can really hide from He Yanqing. It's just that none of the three people in the family took the initiative to pierce the last window paper, so they didn't put this matter on the table.

The spring sun is flooding, and the sunlight that is imprisoned by the windows spills into the house, and even the wooden floor seems to grow grass.

Seeing that her husband who suddenly appeared behind him wanted to speak and stopped, He Yanqing didn't take the initiative to say anything, but only snorted meaningfully, and pushed the half-cut tomatoes in his hand along with the cutting board.

Silently cut the tomatoes, An Jianing washed the eggs very attentively, knocked them open and beat them in the bowl.

"Who said you were going to eat scrambled eggs?" Xu is angry in his heart that An Jianning has not confessed, and He Yanqing has thorns in his words.

Sensing that something was wrong with his wife today, An Jianing began to think about whether his daughter had already received the news, so he specially said to himself: "It's okay, if you don't eat it, you can make an egg drop soup for our girl." ”

"Whatever you want." He Yanqing threw down such a sentence, stuffed the sleeves to the handle of the top cabinet, and walked out with the dishes in his hand, leaving An Jianing alone in the kitchen.

The latter was given space to be alone, but felt more and more tormented.

Since He Yanqing already knew what he was doing, he didn't stop it...... Perhaps, you can try to confess yourself? An Jianing shook his head violently, wanting to make himself a little clearer and find a way to get the best of both worlds.

At this moment when An Jianing was thinking nonsense, the pot looked at the waterfall, but fortunately, the former had already summed up the lessons from his previous experience, frowned and continued to think about the things in his heart, without panic, and even turned off the fire a little elegantly.

Serving the soup slowly, An Jianing knew that as long as he walked out of the kitchen door, he had to be mentally prepared to face the trial.

Taking a deep breath in the kitchen, An Jianing picked up the bowl and walked in the living room.

"Why didn't you go out so early today? I couldn't see you when I woke up two days ago, why are you still home today? Knowing that if no one spoke with An Jianing's temperament, he was afraid that it would drag on forever, He Yanqing still decided to take the initiative.

"Oh, nothing happened today." An Jianing's words are really not deceiving, today's day's arrangement is to talk to his daughter to cooperate, "I'm staying at home today." ”

"Hmm." He Yanqing responded, but he didn't seem to respond, and he was very perfunctory.

Standing up, He Yanqing walked to An Ji's door: "An Ji, come out to eat." ”

When the mother and daughter sat back at the dining table, two bowls of hot egg drop soup were already placed on the table, and An Jianing's smiling face was facing the two.

"I ......"

"You and Lao Ning have a joke together, right?" After taking a bite of breakfast meat and putting it in his mouth to chew, He Yan took her husband's words without raising her eyes, "I don't care, you get yours." ”

"Huh? I mean, I'm ...... now" An Jianing doesn't usually talk much, but he is indeed a person who can talk, and now He Yanqing's casual tone made the former stunned, "You mean, you don't care?" ”

"Well, what do I care you do? Now that An Ji has the ability to do it herself, she won't have to rely on you and me to support her in the future. ”

"Oh, eat this, your dad doesn't taste good when he makes that." He Yanqing lightly ordered some of the dishes he made with his chopsticks, "Isn't it time for you to go out after eating?" ”

instructed his daughter, He Yanqing turned around again: "When the time comes, I will retire, and the pension will be enough for you and me to live, you can do whatever you want, I don't have so much leisure to care about what you do." ”

Although his wife's words were tingling, they were obviously not cynical, but An Jianing listened calmly and happily agreed, and did not talk about what achievements he wanted to show his wife.

What An Jianing is pursuing is his own dream, which is his own self when he was young. The family must support and encourage each other, but this does not mean that An Jianing's achievements are for the family to see.

"Alright, I'm going to work." He Yanqing put down his chopsticks, stood up and put the bowl in the kitchen sink, "Even if you are fine, hurry up, you always waste time like this every day." ”

The father and daughter are accustomed to chewing and swallowing slowly, which is actually far healthier than He Yanqing's eating habits. But the latter's character is not developed for this family?

"Your mother also had her own dreams back then, but she just thought that if she had a child, she would have to have a solid job." He Yanqing went out with his front foot, and An Jianing opened his mouth with his back foot.

Looking at the daughter in front of him, thinking about his wife who has been paying silently and worrying all the time, An Jianing will inevitably regret in his heart: "Think about it now...... Maybe your mom will follow her dreams, and I'll find a job to ensure family life, and maybe she'll make it. ”

Although there are always people in today's society who speak out for "women don't just live for the family, they should live their own lives", it still can't change that women are still inevitably sacrificing all aspects of themselves for the family.

In front of the family, men and women should pay equally, but the social division of labor over thousands of years seems to determine that women always have to sacrifice more for the family.

An Ji's family is actually such a microcosm, but the improvement of the family's economic conditions, An Jianing's respect as a husband, and the success of He Yanqing's sacrifice as a woman gradually decreased, it seems that it is ...... Whether it is this small family or the whole society, women gradually no longer need to pay only for the family, but also for their dreams.

An Ji didn't reply, but the food on the table had been eaten by the father and daughter, and An Jianing stood up and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks familiarly: "Just because of your mother's dedication, I will always owe her, and our family relies on her to support it." ”

It's a pity that not all husbands in families will be as transparent and gracious as An Jianing, and not all wives in all families can see their husbands' contributions.

To have a daughter like An Ji who dares to do and can succeed is actually inseparable from the education and exposure of such a pair of parents.

An Ji's family is actually very good, although life is as ordinary as ever, and there has never been a quarrel over trivial things, but everyone knows how to pay and know how to be grateful to pay.

"It's all in the past, since my mother chose to let Dad pursue your own dreams, now you can succeed to make her happy."

Usually An Ji is busy and has no time to help with housework, and An Jianing and He Yanqing are also reluctant. Now it happens that the father himself is anxious, and the former takes advantage of the effort to help clean up and talk about his understanding.

"She respects your choice, as long as you are worthy of her choice, people can't be reborn like that, and they can't read the file again like the game, every decision has created a different result now, what has passed, all you want should be to do your best."

"Wang Anshi's sentence 'Those who can't reach it even if they do their best can have no regrets, who can ridicule it?' Isn't that the truth? ”

frowned and stared at the dining table for a while, not knowing what An Ji was thinking. After a while, he unfolded the rag in his hand, folded it again, and wiped the table again: "Just do your best in everything, if you really can't do it, don't regret it." ”

In fact, in today's society, how many people have to look ahead and backward to do things, society, family, friends, which need to be considered comprehensively, may not be able to do their best in what they want to do, so they will always leave regrets.

Fortunately, An Ji's family is doing their best to support their family to do what they want to do, which is fortunate for the Yu family, as well as for Hangluo and Yu Wenhua.

Off topic:

Wang Anshi's sentence is from "The Story of Traveling to Bao Zen Mountain", which is a good article, and the new textbook on our side seems to have been deleted...... There is no such philosophical substitution. Although when I took the college entrance examination in 21 (yes, everyone who knew in 21 years knew that I repeated it last year but didn't take the test because of the mask) this should have one more word (not this sentence), but this article is very good, and it's really a pity to delete the text.
