That night, the moon lit up and the village was quiet and peaceful.

The relatives who came to Daoxi helped wash the dishes and went back after eating, and it was still very early to go to bed. Chen Xiang asked Wang Yan to take him out for a walk.

Wang Yan led Chen Xiang to a small road, on both sides of the road was planted a row of drainage cedars, and the moonlight shone through the shade of the trees, sprinkling jade-like broken light on the ground, mottled and mottled. The moon moved slowly in the high sky, and the broken light on the ground also moved slowly, making it appear soft and quiet.

Xu is night is too beautiful, the two just hold hands and walk slowly, no one speaks. Suddenly, Wang Yan seemed to remember something and said, "If I go to Beijing with you, I don't know what will happen in the future?" ”

Chen Xiang understood that Wang Yan was affected by the daytime, so he said: "Let's work hard together." ”

Wang Yan said, "I don't know you, I'm afraid you won't treat me well in the future." ”

Chen Xiang pulled Wang Yan into his arms, pressed his chin against Wang Yan's forehead, and said, "No, I like you, I will always be good to you." It was the first time they had spoken deeply about their feelings, but only in a few short sentences. With Chen Xiang's "promise", Wang Yan's heart seems to have settled down. She leaned her head closer into Chen Xiang's arms.

As the > says, "When you understand that neither life nor self is to be overcome but to get along, you will understand that there are things that are not reasonable, but you must believe; Some things are not solid, but you have to rely on. Although the days with Chen Xiang were not long, Chen Xiang at this time had become Wang Yan's only reliance and trust when he went north.

In the early morning of the next day, the two said goodbye to Wang Yan's parents, took a bus to Nanjing, and then transferred to a train to Beijing, and returned to their temporary love nest: a rented small farmhouse dormitory, and began their ideal life of struggle.

People are always willing to use the word "North Drift" to describe the people who work in Beijing, and in this sense, Chen Xiang and Wang Yan are also counted. However, Chen Xiang himself has never been willing to describe himself as a "North Drifter", he thinks that "North Drift" is a bit bleak, and he himself has never had this feeling, he only plunged into marriage, bent on breaking into the name of the name.

Chen Xiang felt that although Wang Yan was in modern times and not very old, she had a very traditional side in her bones. For example, she seems to follow her boldly, but in fact she has not gone through the affairs of men and women, and if she is not sure that she is a virgin, she may also dislike her. Sometimes this girl seems smart and calm, and sometimes she seems childish and ridiculous.

Wang Yan was pregnant, and Chen Xiang asked her what she thought about the child. Wang Yan actually said: "Getting married and having children is a sign of loving each other." I think people should do things when they want. For example, when you go to school, you should concentrate on your studies, when you graduate, you should specialize in work, and when you get married, you should have children. ”

What is this theory? If you get married, you want children? Can you still have anything to do with love? Although he couldn't fully agree, Chen Xiang could understand Wang Yan's sincerity to himself.

Wang Yan is pregnant, although she is not pregnant, she has severe morning sickness. Every time I commute to work in the car, I vomit many times. The place where I went to work was more than two hours away from my residence, and at that time, there was no direct subway to which I could transfer.

Chen Xiang saw that Wang Yan had traces of vomiting every time she came back, so he persuaded her to resign and recuperate at home for a period of time. Wang Yan had the heart to persevere, but something happened that prompted her to resign. The book edited by Wang Yan was finally published, but the director came to her and said that there were several typos in it and that she needed to deduct her salary. Before printing, Wang Yan carefully proofread it no less than five or six times, but she still made mistakes. Wang Yan felt that there was a rough element in her temperament, and that this job might not be suitable for her.

Wang Yan decided to resign, he told Chen Xiang his thoughts, but omitted the part that went wrong at work, and only said to Chen Xiang: "After I got pregnant, I got motion sickness and vomited so badly, I want to find a place closer to work."

Chen Xiang glanced at Wang Yan's thin face and said, "Well, then quit." Wait until you have a baby before going to work. ”

After Wang Yan quit her job, she was bored at home alone. She bought a newspaper, got a job from the newspaper, and applied for a job as a training teacher at a computer training company.

After Wang Yan arrived at the employer, she was asked to try to give a lecture to a student. The student was a girl, she looked stupid and stupid, Wang Yan asked her something, she only "hmm" twice, and didn't give any answer, Wang Yan didn't know, whether she really understood or didn't understand.

Wang Yan asked the girl, "Are you still in school now?" ”

The girl replied lazily and without raising her eyelids: "No." ”

Wang Yan asked, "Then you are working now?" What to do? ”

As soon as the girl heard this, her eyes immediately lit up, she raised her soft waist, stared at Wang Yan and said, "I sell Amway products now, I don't have to go to work, I can earn money at home." With that, she reached out and pulled out a facial cleanser from her bag and said, "Look, this is an Amway product." It's easy to use. This facial cleanser... ”

Wang Yan was stunned: This girl is a sales freak! She has done sales before, but she has never been so energetic, look at this girl, when she talks about the product, it is like taking hormones, her spirit is flying, and her mouth is non-stop.

Wang Yan didn't go to work at the computer training office, she actually didn't know the real situation there, and just a "chance encounter" with the female student made her retreat.

Wang Yan went to another store and applied for picture processing. They asked her to open the software and actually operate it. WANG YAN WON AN AWARD IN SCHOOL, BUT IT WAS ONLY EXCELLENT IN THE WRITTEN TEST OF THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGE, AND SHE DIDN'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT APPLICATION-ORIENTED PHOTOSHOP. Seeing that she didn't understand at all, the interview manager tactfully told her that asking her to come back and wait for the notice was actually to drive her away.

Chen Xiang saw that every time Wang Yan looked for a job, she was tossed and haggard when she came back, and knew that she must have committed morning sickness along the way. said to Wang Yan distressedly: "Don't look for a job, haven't you always planned to take the postgraduate entrance examination?" Read a book at home. ”

She happily went to the library to buy a large stack of English, advanced mathematics and political books for graduate school entrance examinations, and the test questions for professional courses were issued by the school itself, there were no exam books, only the basic reference books listed by the school, those books, which she had learned when she was in college, she had them, so she saved money to buy professional textbooks.

Wang Yan began to read books at home to prepare for exams. The days of preparing for the exam were dull, hard, but fulfilling. The knowledge I learned before has been reviewed in a solid manner again, and the current affairs and politics that I have not learned before have been used as fresh material to supplement my brain.

The day before the exam, Chen Xiang accompanied Wang Yan to the guest house rented in advance, which was in the school, so that he could read books late at night, and then "cramming to death", and Qiu Yu was also taking the exam.

In the spring of the following year, the score came down. Qiu Yu was admitted, and through the adjustment, he went to a famous school in another province. Wang Yan failed to reach the line, which was a small blow to Wang Yan, it turned out that Wang Yan had a tenacious personality and would not give up until the goal was achieved. In Wang Yan's dream, there was originally a scene of graduate school, which was the lifelong learning dream of a "reader" hidden deep in her heart.

Chen Xiang didn't know Wang Yan originally, but gradually he saw that this Wang Yan was actually a bit of a "nerd" atmosphere, only to see that Wang Yan stayed at home, in addition to cooking three meals to accompany herself, she kept reading her postgraduate entrance examination books, with her armor in her arms, sitting for a day, not tired at all. Chen Xiang understands that Wang Yan is "energetic".

Sometimes, Chen Xiang worries that if she sits for too long, it will affect her fertility. So he persuaded her to go out for a walk. Who knows, Wang Yan said: "It's okay, it's a waste of time to go out, I can still do prenatal education when I read." ”

"Can you do prenatal education by reading graduate school books?" Chen Xiang had some doubts, but he didn't say anything, only said: "It's been too long, the child will feel stuffy in the stomach, and walking around is good for the child." ”

"Oh." Wang Yan understood that Chen Xiang's meaning of letting her move around was not purely afraid that she would be bored, but more for the health of the child. So he agreed.

has been with Chen Xiang for a long time, and Wang Yan has a lot of words. One day, Wang Yan asked Chen Xiang, "Have you ever had a dream?" ”

"Yes. Not only have they been, but they also have now. Chen Xiang's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light and said: "After coming to Beijing, I thought that one day I would have my own company and my own business. ”

Wang Yan smiled and said, "You will achieve it." ”

"Why?" Chen Xiang asked.

"I still remember the first time I came to you, I saw you and Guoguo. I mistakenly think that you are their head, you are very much like a young entrepreneur. Wang Yan said with a smile.

"Really?" Chen Xiang asked with interest.

"Hmm. I think sooner or later you'll have your own business. Wang Yan said firmly.

"My dream is not as big as yours, however, I want to go to graduate school and then become a teacher, preferably a university teacher." Wang Yan said yearningly: "I like children very much and like to deal with students. ”

"Then you have a good test, wife." Chen Xiang held Wang Yan's hand and encouraged.

"But I feel very tired of reading now, and my brain is not as good as before." Wang Yan said, "You know what? When I was a child, as long as I worked a little harder, my grades were very good. However, I didn't get into the graduate school entrance examination this time. Wang Yan's attitude was a little stupid.

"Really?" Chen Xiang asked exploratory.

"Well, when I was in elementary school, I almost never did my homework, but I liked to read in the morning and listen to lectures. Read books in the morning class, listen to lectures in class, and be among the top few in Chinese and mathematics. At that time, I thought I was smart. When I was in the first year of junior high school, I didn't listen to lectures at first, but I only flipped through the books and read the example problems after class, but even then, I was able to do the exercises by myself according to the example problems. When I was in high school, I took out the math, physics, and chemistry papers for each exam, looked at the wrong questions, and reasoned with my heart. I often get perfect marks in Physics and Chemistry. Wang Yan recalled.

"Then if you review it well this time, you should be able to pass the test. When you are admitted to graduate school, it is not hard to find a school to be a teacher. Chen Xiang turned her ideal into the ideal that their small family now shared.

In this way, these two young men and women who have just entered the society have moved the legendary heavy love and rock-deep ideals to the marriage boat that has just been built, can this small boat withstand such a heavy pressure?
