two trees for forest

July is raging, and the summer vacation will be over in a blink of an eye.Although the sun was still shining brightly at noon, the early morning was no longer as dry and hot as before.Lin Jian adjusted his clothes, took a deep breath, and knocked on the tutor's office.

"It's Lin Jian, come on, come on, fast forward, fast forward," Li Cheng let his favorite student into the room.

"Teacher, I just came here to tell you that I... am not going to graduate school anymore." Lin Jian lowered his head after speaking, and his eyes fell on the buttons of Li Cheng's clothes, not daring to meet his gaze.

"Why all of a sudden..." Li Cheng remembered something as he spoke, he knew something about Lin Jian's family situation, "Xiao Jian, if you have any difficulties, you can tell the teacher, although the teacher is not talented, but it is more than enough to help a student Yes. If you are embarrassed, you can write an IOU to the teacher first, and then return the money to the teacher after making money."

Lin Jian smiled and shook his head, "Thank you teacher, but no need."

"Xiaojian, you have such a good talent, you can go further in the future, what a waste!" Li Cheng lamented.Although Lin Jian, the architectural designer, is not the smartest child he has ever brought up, he must be the most spiritual one.If you train well, you will definitely become a famous architect and design a landmark building in a city.

It would be a pity to give up now!

"Teacher, I'm sorry." Lin Jian bowed and didn't get up for a long time.

Li Cheng stretched out his hand to help the student who was half a head taller than him, "I'm not sorry for the teacher, I'm sorry for yourself!"

"Teacher, I can still learn. I will not leave this profession." Lin Jian paused, "I just can't stay at school and learn from you."

Li Cheng knew Lin Jian's predicament. If it were him, a 22-year-old boy would not want to spend her money after his mother passed away, so he could feel at ease.However, Li Cheng never expected that Mother Lin would donate all her monthly money to charity organizations after saving enough for the mother and son's life.

"Well, the teacher won't persuade you much anymore. Now that you are older, you have the ability to choose. But you can always come to the teacher if you have any questions or difficulties in the future."

Lin Jian nodded.

"I'm going to call old man Wang. He read your kid's graduation thesis last semester. He insisted on asking for someone from me. He even made an appointment in advance. He said that he must leave it to him after graduation. I don't agree with anything. Now it's cheaper for him." Li Cheng turned around and dialed the phone.

After Li Cheng hung up the phone, Lin Jian turned around from the huge surprise, "You mean... Teacher Wang Jiewang?!"

"Yes, I will introduce you to the Sixth Design Institute, and I will let him take you."

"This...is it really possible?"

"Of course it's true, brat, I don't believe anything I say!" Li Cheng patted the back of Lin Jian's head lightly, "But go and help him now, he's almost an apprentice, follow Master and work hard."

As Li Cheng spoke, he turned serious and patted Lin Jian's arm, "Lin Jian, the teacher believes that gold will always shine!"

Lin Jian's eyes were red, and he bent down again and bowed solemnly to the teacher.

These people who selflessly gave him warmth in his life, he will remember them all his life.

After saying goodbye to the teacher, Lin Jian went to the cemetery by car.This is the first time Lin Jian has faced it calmly since his mother passed away.Because he wanted to muster up the courage to tell the person who loved him the most that Lin Jian really grew up on the 100th day after he left.

Lin Jian held a bouquet of fiery red roses and placed them in front of the stele. The woman's voice and appearance still echoed in his mind.Thinking of her being seriously ill in bed, she said: "From now on, I must bring a bunch of red roses when I come to see me. I don't want to see the flowers at all. It's unlucky."

Lin Jian sat down cross-legged and began to chat with her as usual.

"Mom, I didn't go to graduate school. Teacher Li introduced me to the design institute. I think I can learn it myself, and I don't necessarily have to be in school, right? I listen to you, and talents will emerge from practice."

Lin Jian stretched out his hand to caress the photo on the stele, "Mom, don't blame me for not coming to see you for so long. In fact, I have never been able to accept your leaving. I always feel..." Lin Jian had a sore nose, turned his face away from Lin Si Yi's gaze, "I'm always escaping, thinking that one day, you will come back. Do you know, I wake up every morning and look at the empty room, and I can't react for a long time."

"At that time, I couldn't hold on anymore, so I went to the orphanage that you had been subsidizing at that time. The dean and auntie talked to me every day. She was really nice and encouraged me all the time."

"By the way, do you still remember Dongdong? That little boy with big eyes, you told him to take him to the haunted house." Lin Jian seemed to think of something, and burst out laughing, "Teach him How old is a man who needs to be brave!"

"You also said that you want to let him study. Oh, I was about to tell you about this. I discussed with the dean a few days ago and asked her to help me through the formalities. I want to adopt Dongdong, and I will go this afternoon Pick him up. Mom, you know, I'm a little... afraid of being alone."

"I found that I felt less lonely when I was with him, and then I asked him if he would call me Dad, and the child froze in fright. Mom, someone will accompany me, so don't worry. "

"mom……"

Lin Jian sat in front of the monument and babbled for a long time, pouring out all his pain, helplessness, and entanglement for so many days.Every time I said a little bit, I felt a little more relaxed in my heart, until all the depression was uttered.

The sun was gradually sinking, and the afterglow dyed everything with golden light. Only then did Lin Jian realize that he had been sitting in front of the stele talking for almost a day, and agreed with the dean to pick up Dongdong in the afternoon. It took too long, he staggered when he got up, and then he stood still, he smiled and said goodbye to Lin Siyi, "Mom, I'm going to pick up Dongdong, and I will see you later."

Lin Jian knelt down again, kowtowed slowly and solemnly to his mother, "Mom, I will live a good life and will not let you down."

When Lin Jian rushed to the orphanage, he saw an old man and a young man standing in front of the door holding hands and waiting for him from a distance.Dongdong has been looking at this side until the only remaining light in the dusk outlines such a familiar figure, Dongdong's uneasy heart sinks.

Dongdong let go of the dean's hand, and flew towards Lin Jian like an arrow leaving the string.Lin Jian picked up the rushing child and lifted him very high.As the sun sets, this silhouette is breathtakingly beautiful.

On a certain day in a certain year and a certain month, on the hundredth day after Lin Siyi left, Dongdong changed his name to Lin Dongyu, officially settled in the Lin family, and became Lin Jian's legal son.
