In the thousands of marriage and family cases handled by Dongfang Siyi, many parties did not leave much impression on him. They and some of them may be angry about the tragedy of their unhappy marriage, but lack a kind of self-reflection and remorse; or compare the gains and losses in his marriage, and the warm time he once had is gone; Or blurred his conscience in love and hatred, seized the moral high ground in order to protect his reputation and interests, and tried his best to attack his former other half, not hesitating to reverse black and white and confuse right and wrong.

But Chen Wandao left him with another special impression, this man who couldn't see anything special in a bunch of men, was silent in the face of his wife who deliberately cheated on him, and he didn't fight at all in the face of everything he lost.

Dongfang Siyi sometimes thinks about this question: What kind of man is this? What kind of experience did he have? What kind of experience can make him so heartbroken?

When Chen Wandao walked into Dongfang Siyi's office, there was no expression on his stiff face. He said hello to Dongfang Siyi, and after sitting down, he fumbled in his jacket pocket, and finally took out a pack of hard boxes of cigarettes that had obviously been sitting for many days. The cigarette case has been squeezed and deformed.

He took out a cigarette, carefully straightened it with his hand, and looked up at Dongfang Siyi again: "Can you smoke?" ”

Dongfang Siyi nodded and said, "Smoke it." ”

Chen Wandao smiled bitterly apologetically: "There's really no way, I've already started to quit smoking, you see, the cigarette box is deformed, but there are still times when I can't stand it, and when I can't figure out some things, I have to smoke one or two." I'm an anxious person, and I can't live without it when I encounter a situation of impatience. ”

Dongfang Siyi smiled and said: "I used to be very addicted to smoking, and it took several years to quit, as long as I have the heart to quit it, I can still quit." Chen Wandao took a puff of cigarette and said, "Well, I want to try again, maybe I can quit." ”

Chen Wandao finished smoking the cigarette in his hand, and the expression on his face was obviously relaxed: "I knew that sooner or later there would be this day between me and her, but I didn't expect her to hide so many things from me that shouldn't be hidden." I just think it's a little unfair, the parties to the marriage are allowed privacy with each other, but there should also be a certain right to know. She shouldn't just use me as her springboard, as a bridge on a stretch of the road she designed. At first, I was very resentful in my heart, but after I figured it out, there was nothing to worry about. What should come will always come, and what should go will always go. Forget it, there's nothing to worry about, President Dongfang, you just judge according to law, I don't have any requirements or opinions. ”

Chen Wandao and his wife Ji Lina were originally two birds belonging to different forests, one nesting in a southern city, and the other taking pity on the plateau in the north. It was a red thread that had crossed thousands of miles that brought them together, and this red thread was carefully made for him by Chen Wandao's master Zheng Dali. One end of the red thread was tied to his heart, and the other was tied to her feet.

In Chen Wandao's eyes, the master Zheng Dali is as kind to him as a mountain, and he is the only relative who cannot be disobeyed in his life. Everything he has can be said to be given by the master, and every word the master has said is a golden rule for him, and he cannot violate it, and he is unwilling to violate it.

More than ten years ago, Chen Wandao, who had just passed his 20th birthday, successfully graduated from the county technical school. Technical school graduates like him are faced with a variety of choices, whether they are to go out to work, find an apprenticeship with a small local company, or find another way out of their own way, as long as they can support themselves, even if they live up to their family and their own hopes.

Chen Wandao, who suffered family changes since he was a child, didn't dare to think about anything, although he knew that he had learned a skill, but if he didn't have the opportunity to show it, it would mean that he had learned nothing and would have nothing. Therefore, he thought that as long as he could find a place to work and have a bowl of rice to eat after graduation, he would be considered lucky.

What Chen Wandao didn't expect was that opportunities would always provide hope to those who were prepared. At the beginning of the summer of this year, in order to meet the needs of expanding production, the county-owned enterprises decided to recruit fresh graduates from the county technical school. In the recruitment interview conducted by the county five-star machinery factory, Chen Wandao's proficiency in operating the machine tool was praised on the spot by Zheng Dali, the factory director consultant in charge of the recruitment work of the county five-star machinery factory.

Although the county five-star machinery factory is not large, it is a county-owned state-owned enterprise, and it is one of the few enterprises that can produce export products at that time, so it is listed as a key unit of county support and development, and it is the dream goal of the students of the county technical school to enter the five-star machinery factory.

Chen Wandao did not expect that he would become one of the new workers recruited by Zheng Dali directly from the graduates of the county technical school. After entering the factory, Zheng Dali appreciated his operation skills and proficiency, and directly asked Chen Wandao to follow him as an apprentice. Unexpected surprises, so that Chen Wandao especially cherished the hard-won work opportunities, no matter whether it was dirty work, he never complained, and the quality of the products out of his hands can always meet the best standards, never let the master ever disappointed him. Since then, he has become Zheng Dali's favorite apprentice.

After working for half a year, Chen Wandao finally understood what it meant to be selected by Zheng Dali as an apprentice. Zheng Dali is not only recognized as the first lathe worker of the five-star machinery factory, no matter how difficult the products are, they will be displayed in front of you like magic in his hands. Zheng Dali is also a provincial model worker and a winner of the May Day Medal. Several directors of the five-star machinery factory were once Zheng Dali's apprentices, so Zheng Dali was called the honorary factory director, and it can be said that he is not the factory director but he is better than the factory director.

Chen Wandao studied with Zheng Dali for three years, became a recognized technical backbone and expert in the factory, and played a major role in the technical research team set up by the factory for the production of export products. No matter what kind of work the master gave him, he was always able to complete it in advance with quality and quantity in the first time, and therefore won the trust of the master.

The characteristics of young people who are willing to learn and learn are particularly prominent in Chen Wandao's body, and these outstanding characteristics are affirmed by the master at the same time, but also cover up his fatal weakness and shortcomings, this weakness is that his self-esteem is too strong, and the shortcoming is that he is easily impulsive.

"Which one is Chen Wandao?" When the two policemen appeared in the workshop, the master Zheng Dali opened his mouth wide in surprise.

The police walked up to Chen Wandao and showed him a summons card: "You are suspected of intentionally harming others, we will summon you in accordance with the law, and you must now go with us to the police station for investigation." Zheng Dali looked at the scene in front of him, and suddenly felt a strange pain in his heart. Chen Wandao was taken away by the police under the nose of the master and in the incomprehensible eyes of everyone.

The incident happened suddenly, and Zheng Dali found out what happened after inquiry.

Two weeks ago, Chen Wandao and a few classmates were having a party in the hotel, and a few young people at the next table saw that a few girls here were very beautiful, and one of them with dyed yellow hair got up and shouted at them arrogantly: "Those beautiful girls, come and have a few drinks with your buddies!" ”

After shouting a few times, seeing that no one was paying attention to them here, he actually borrowed the courage to come over with a wine glass and come to the table and play drunk: "Yo hey, the shelf is big enough, Uncle Ben can't please move you little girls?" ”

Several male classmates stood up in unison, and Huang Mao smirked when he saw it: "Want to fight?" I don't know the names of our brothers? ”

Chen Wandao glared at Huang Mao and said, "I don't know, you can report your dog's name and let us see it." ”

Huang Mao angrily poured all the wine in the wine glass on Chen Wandao's face, Chen Wandao waved his hand and punched Huang Mao's face, Huang Mao stumbled and stood unsteadily, and immediately fell to the ground.

Seeing this, the seven or eight people at that table immediately rushed over, and then the two sides scuffled together. It wasn't until the hotel owner called the police and the police arrived at the scene that the two sides had to stop fighting.

At this time, I saw that Huang Mao's face was covered with blood, and then he was taken to the hospital by the ambulance that arrived. Later, after forensic identification, Huang Mao not only broke a tooth and fractured the nasal bone, but also caused a ruptured spleen due to external force, and the degree of injury had reached the standard of serious injury.

When making a record at the police station, Chen Wandao took all the faults and admitted that he beat Huang Mao, and that Huang Mao's injuries were caused by himself. He thought to himself that he was the first to do it, and he couldn't let other students get involved in any case. Besides, he is a carefree person, one person eats enough for the whole family and is not hungry, and there is nothing that cannot be carried.

Chen Wandao's parents divorced when he was very young, and they both formed new families later, and no one cared about him. Chen Wandao can only rely on his grandfather for his life, and while attending technical school, his grandfather also died of illness, and he actually became an orphan who is not an orphan.

Chen Wandao was sentenced to four years in prison for intentional injury. On the day the verdict was announced, the squad leader Chen Erbao came to see him and quietly gave him a thousand yuan: "You are my best brother, and I hurt you." Chen Erbao said with some guilt.

Chen Wandao didn't say anything, but accepted the thousand yuan with a smile, he knew that after he was imprisoned, there might be no one else who could help him, and besides, he accepted this money, which could also alleviate the uneasiness in Chen Erbao's heart.

The party was convened by Chen Erbao that day, because he was admitted to the civil service in other places, and he invited more than a dozen of his best classmates to dinner as a farewell. He and Chen Erbao both understood that the kick that was enough to rupture Huang Mao's spleen was kicked by Chen Erbao.

If Chen Erbao is sentenced, all his efforts will be in vain, Chen Wandao knows that Chen Erbao only wants to take the civil service exam wholeheartedly, he thinks, that fight was his own head, and that kick will be recorded on his head, so he insisted that it was the yellow hair that he kicked. Huang Mao was blinded by Chen Wandao's punch, gritted his teeth with hatred for him, and identified him in court, and the case was over.
