After several days of rain, the sky finally cleared again.

Dongfang Siyi was busy all morning, put down the case file in his hand, stood in front of the wide window and took a deep breath. Looking into the distance, the light gray sky first revealed a few small patches of pleasant azure blue, and as the clouds drifted, the azure blue like flowing watercolor soaked, slowly spreading the entire sky, giving people a special sense of tranquility.

Outside the office window, the camphor tree next to the fence grows tenaciously under the siege and oppression of the concrete buildings around it, and you can feel its roots stretching unyieldingly under the concrete-covered ground. The four seasons have quietly left an indelible annual ring on its body, and it has taken root with this office building.

In a cluster of gray buildings, this camphor tree has become an ordinary and unique landscape. Looking at its evergreen leaves, a different kind of comfort grows in my heart, and there is less boredom and melancholy. Unconsciously, its branches and leaves have stretched out a new section towards the surrounding space, and in the shiny green leaves, there are suddenly some light green shoots, the alternation of new life and decay, is the normal state of life continuation, and the camphor tree has grown into a towering tree in the normal state day after day, year after year.

There was a burst of noise downstairs, and more than a dozen migrant workers began to break the ground and dig a ditch under the command of a foreman-like person, Dongfang Siyi didn't understand what they were going to do, and asked the deputy director of the office in charge of logistics, only to know that a row of simple houses was to be built there to pile up some unused sundries.

The so-called sundries refer to those old and obsolete office supplies, which can be sent to the waste recycling station or other treatments, but because these objects belong to public property, there are more procedures and troubles to deal with, and it seems that finding a place to put them aside is the best and most trouble-free way.

Oriental Thinking thinks that it is far more than these clutters that occupy our space, and I don't know how many houses and cabinets have shelved abandoned old things that cannot be separated or do not want to be parted. Day after day, our space is gradually encroached upon by these old and lifeless clutter, just like those indelible memories. We can't easily deal with these things that encroach on our space, and we can't easily delete them with the click of a mouse just like we do with computer junk.

Outside the fence is a flower and bird market, where all kinds of potted plants and flowers are placed on the roadside, and people are constantly stopping to watch, bargaining, or leaving disappointed. Dongfang Siyi once bought more than one pot of such flowers and trees, but always could not keep them for a long time, can only watch them gradually wither and helpless, thinking that these potted things can not last long after all, Dongfang Siyi decided not to repeat such a tragedy after coming to this conclusion.

At the end of the flower market is the birdseller's stall, who is buried in the various bird cages. In the space covered by a net beside them, a dozen birds were still flying up and down at first, and after a long time, they may feel tired, or they may understand that the sky outside does not belong to them, and they know that they cannot get rid of such a fate, and soon they stay quietly in their respective corners.

However, whether it is a person or a bird, fate will often play a little joke on you inadvertently. Dongfang Siyi watched a little boy holding the knife in his hand and inadvertently scratching it on the net, and none of those who were busy with various transactions noticed this detail.

After a while, a thrush flew out of the cut. When the birdseller looked back after a business, the thrush had flown to the tall branches of the camphor tree and was crying freely, and after a short pause in the branches, it flew out of the birdseller's sight. The little boy knew he was in trouble and quietly hid to the side. The bird seller hastily patched up the broken net, and stood there in a daze with some heartache. Dongfang Siyi couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he saw this scene, an unintentional act by the naughty boy made this thrush regain his freedom.

Xu Ming pushed the door in, followed by two people, Dongfang Siyi moved his eyes from the window back to the interior, and then he saw clearly that it was Han Shuai and Wang Jing.

Dongfang Siyi greeted them first, and then asked Wang Jing with concern: "It's completely recovered." Good, good. Wang Jing smiled with a smile on her face: "Well, thank you for your concern, thank you for worrying a lot about our affairs." Dongfang Siyi saw a long-lost true happiness in her smile, and let out a long sigh of relief.

Han Shuai said apologetically: "It's all my fault that I have caused you a lot of trouble." I'm here today to drop the lawsuit. If you hadn't figured out the crux of our problem and patiently helped us untie the knot, Wang Jing and I would have been strangers to each other, and you would have recreated happiness for us. Really want to thank you. ”

Dongfang Siyi looked at their young couple with satisfaction: "I always feel that you have feelings for Wang Jing, and Wang Jing also has feelings for you, but your feelings are deeply trapped in a family emotional chain that is difficult to untie yourself, I may be a little inappropriate to use the word chain, but I find that you are indeed bound and troubled." This bondage and distress is entangled with family affection, and we cannot simply define and rule it out. ”

Dongfang Siyi motioned for the two of them to sit down and said: "For this kind of trouble, I can find but can't help you solve it, the only one who can help you solve it is Teacher Wang, from the contact with Teacher Wang, her words and deeds make me feel that she is a kind, tolerant and open-minded intellectual woman, and a person who should be respected." To be honest, if Mr. Wang hadn't taken the initiative to solve this problem, I would have been helpless. So, to say thank you, you should thank her old man. I would also like to thank her, she not only helped me deal with your family affairs that made me in a dilemma, but also gave me a real inspiration, and when facing similar marriage and family problems in the future, I also have an additional idea to solve them. ”

Han Shuai's heart was already filled with a deep guilt: "You are right, I have misunderstood her old man too much, she thinks about us everywhere, but I closed my conscience because of selfishness, and I can't feel the kindness and tolerance of her old man." Now that I think about it, on many issues, she respected our opinions, but we didn't appreciate her good intentions and didn't respond to her kindness. She didn't care about my mistakes, didn't give up her trust in me because of this, and didn't blame me for it, but took the initiative to change her way of life to adapt to us and accommodate us. I am deeply ashamed of this. ”

Han Shuai told Dongfang Siyi again: "I discussed with Wang Jing, considering my work situation and the actual situation of Wang Jing's family, we are ready to move out and live in another place, rent a house for a while, and then consider buying a house when the conditions are met." The rented house is also relatively close to my work unit and Wang Jing's workplace, and closer to the office of our criminal police team, which is in Ertiao Lane, a two-bedroom and one-hall house. Half a year after the owner got married, the couple went to the field to develop, temporarily idle and not used to think about renting out, Wang Jing and I felt that it was very suitable, the rent was also very fair, we were ready to move in a few days. In fact, there are not many things to prepare, we are usually busy, and many things cannot be taken care of for the time being, such as pots and pans, etc., which cannot be used for the time being, but fortunately, there are canteens in schools and police forces. Management is also very humane, when necessary, family members can also eat, very convenient, work and life these two aspects, we must take care of the work first, some problems in life can only be taken slowly, step by step to solve. ”

Dongfang Siyi nodded: "Ertiao Lane is only more than 200 meters away from your police force, it is quite close." It seems that Wang Jing is worried that you are working day and night, and if you live far away, you are afraid that you will sleep on the street. Han Shuai couldn't help laughing: "When the two of us looked at the house, she really said that." Wang Jing also smiled heartily.

Han Shuai put his two hands into his long hair, which had not had time to trim for about two months, scratched it, looked at Dongfang Siyi and said with some embarrassment: "President, I came today to apply for the withdrawal of the indictment. I assure you that this is the last mistake and that there will never be such a mistake again, otherwise I would not be a man! Please rest assured, Wang Jing and I will definitely honor her old man, Wang Jing will definitely go to see her mother and Wang Hui often, as for me, as long as I have time, I will definitely go, and I will definitely not let her old man be lonely. ”

Dongfang Siyi laughed: "I believe that what you just said is from the bottom of your heart, but there are some things you should say to Wang Jing, not to me, you need to say to her, do it for her, this is the most fundamental and most important, you must remember what you said, in the future, no matter what difficulties arise, you must be able to think of what you just said." ”

Han Shuai said: "Before we came to you, I had already assured her that if I said it again in front of you, I asked you to testify, and I, Han Shuai, would never fail her in my life." ”

Dongfang Siyi picked up the application for withdrawal of the lawsuit handed over by Han Shuai, read it carefully and put it in the case file, signed the original text of the ruling, and then asked Xu Ming to print the original ruling, went to the office to stamp the hospital seal, and served it to Han Shuai and Wang Jing in person, and asked them to sign the service certificate, and then motioned for them to sit down opposite the desk, and Dongfang Siyi took out a paper cup from the cabinet and poured them a cup of hot water each.

Dongfang Siyi looked at them sitting next to each other and smiled: "I still have something to say to the two of you." Although I believe that after these things, you will know how to cherish each other's feelings in the future, and I believe that you will have your happy life, but if you don't know how to protect your feelings, there will still be twists and turns. I hope that you can learn to discover and recognize each other's values in your work, and consider and respect each other's feelings more in your life, so that it is easy to find and face up to existing problems, and you can communicate without barriers. ”

Dongfang Siyi looked at the young couple who were as good as ever: "No one is perfect, but we are always accustomed to using the standard of perfection to demand the people around us, especially our partners, there is always an internal requirement and psychological tendency to idealize our partners, and we always hope that the other party can treat ourselves as we imagined, if there is a different result from our expectations, we will have a sense of loss, and then dissatisfaction and even resentment." This emotion is a corrosive agent for love and marriage. Many problems in life, as well as some conflicts between husband and wife, are not because two people really did something wrong or made a big mistake, but because each other cares too much about their own thoughts and ignores each other's thoughts and feelings. Under the influence of a certain negative psychology, two people are actually in a state where no one can see anyone and no one cares about anyone. Over time, the relationship will inevitably break down, and the marriage will irretrievably become a shackle, something that both people want to abandon, and naturally lose its original value. ”

Dongfang Siyi took out a few copies from the case file: "I'm sorry, I didn't ask for the opinion of Mr. Wang, nor the two of you, I made a copy of this letter from Mr. Wang to you and put it in the file." Since Mr. Wang wants me to read this letter as well, and also hopes that I can put forward my own opinions, I think she will definitely not object to me doing this. The reason why I mention this letter again is to say that it is very important for family members and husbands and wives to see, hear and care about each other's feelings, and on the contrary, many people ignore this. The most important factor in a high-quality marriage is, first of all, to see and hear each other, to see and hear each other's true thoughts and feelings. And the key to doing this is to put yourself in their shoes, listen attentively, and know what your partner is talking about and thinking. No matter how busy your respective work is or how hard your life is, you must care about each other's feelings, watch over and care for each other, and insist on this, any ups and downs are small things that dissipate in a blink of an eye. Remember! I won't say much else, you can go, and especially remind Han Shuai that you must remember that unless it is official business, this place will never come back in the future. ”

Han Shi and Wang Jing both laughed, and Han Shuai said sincerely: "Please rest assured, President Dongfang, I will definitely remember your words, and I will never make such low-level mistakes as in the past again." I will definitely spend my life guarding Wang Jing and guarding our love. ”

Wang Jing looked at him with a trusting smile on her face. She saw that there were a few more parties waiting outside the door, so she gestured to Han Shuai with her eyes, and Han Shuai got up and said to Dongfang Siyi with Wang Jing: "We don't bother, thank you, thank you for your concern for us." ”

Dongfang Siyi also stood up with a smile and watched them leave the office.
