Anan

Chapter 11

Jiang Yu'an is busy with work, even if she has a child in the future, it will be difficult to have the opportunity to be with the child all day, until the child goes to school, most of the time during the day should still be entrusted to the nanny.So with this in mind, Jiang Yu'an didn't force Feng An to stay at home during the day, after all, the two parties are just an employment relationship, and there is still a reasonable amount of private space that should be had.When Jiang Yu'an was working, Feng An could go out and walk around at will, it didn't matter where he went, as long as he could come back before Jiang Yu'an got home.

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and the streets are bustling now, but Feng An is not in the mood to go shopping.He did his homework that day, put on a scarf and a mask, took the subway first, then transferred to the bus, traveled through most of the city by himself, and found the children's hospital in Beicheng District.

The entertainment industry is a place where newcomers come out in large numbers. Ji Chunshen has no works that can be sold, and has been caught in a scandal for nearly half a year.After he was released from prison, he signed a contract with a little-known small company, but he couldn't get any serious announcements, so he had to temporarily do some non-profitable public welfare activities to try to build momentum again.At the beginning, the hospital also cooperated with the other company because Ji Chunshen, a former star, did not need money.This incident itself did not have much impact, and it was not something worth keeping secret, so the hospital gave Feng An the business card of the brokerage company in a very easy manner.

There was the phone number of the front desk on the business card. Feng An called, and the other party asked him to wait for a while. After another five or six minutes, the lady at the front desk answered him politely, saying that Ji Chunshen is not in the company right now. If there is no urgent matter, Why don't you call another day.

Feng An was a little anxious and asked if he could give him Ji Chunshen's phone number.

The lady at the front desk replied, "Sir, it is impossible for us to casually disclose the artist's private phone number."

Feng An begged again and again, but the front desk was firm and never let go.He had no choice but to say: "I'm really not a weird person, I'm just a friend from his hometown. Ji Chunshen had lent me 3 yuan before his accident, but I can't contact him now. If he I have come to the company, can you please tell him to contact me as soon as possible? My name is Feng, Feng An, thank you very much."

The front desk looked very surprised, hesitantly said: "Huh? Oh...Okay, I will tell him."

Feng An went out for a day, and finally returned without success. He was depressed for a while, until Jiang Yu'an came back from get off work to feel better.

Jiang Yu'an came back with another big plastic bag. After entering the door, he took off his coat and hung it on the hanger. He was a little nervous, so he took out a small cake in a carton from the plastic bag and handed it to Feng An, saying: "I Try to make Chinese food today, it may take a little longer, if you are hungry, eat some cake first."

Feng An put the exquisite triangular paper box aside, and rummaged through the plastic bag curiously: "What kind of food is Mr. Jiang planning to cook? I can cook ordinary home-cooked dishes, so I can help you take a look."

Jiang Yu'an was calm at this moment, first took out two boxes of fried rice from the deli from the upper floor, and then revealed a handful of spinach and a packed mandarin fish under the bag: "Take your time, no Anxious to learn a lot at once. Today, I will only fry a vegetarian dish and cook a fish."

Jiang Yu'an doesn't have time to go to cooking classes, all the knowledge about cooking comes from teaching videos on the Internet.During his lunch break today, he randomly picked two to watch, and thought they were okay, not too difficult, so he decided to go home and watch them.

Feng An has always been curious about what business elite Jiang Yu'an would look like when cooking, so he chased him into the kitchen.

Jiang Yu'an did not refuse Feng An to follow him this time, probably because he was not sure about his Chinese cooking skills.After washing the rice, he unpacked the large bundle of spinach and put it in the sink, rinsed it carefully.Standing on the edge of the cooking table, Feng An watched him wash vegetables and choose leaves, and found that Jiang Yu'an's words were true. He really wasn't very good at cooking. Washing vegetables seemed to be doing scientific research. He washed them piece by piece, his movements were rusty, and his expression was Focused to a serious level.

Feng An couldn't help but want to laugh a little, took the vegetable in his hand and said, "Mr. Jiang, that's not how vegetables are washed."

He rinsed the spinach plant in his hand from the mud under the faucet, then pinched off part of the rhizome, took off the leaves on it, and dipped the whole plant in the water basin: "That's all, let's soak it in a while. Like you If you wash it, the leaves will be crushed."

Jiang Yu'an nodded receptively: "Yes, I understand." Then, following Feng An's demonstration just now, he continued to wash the remaining spinach.

Feng An asked curiously: "Mr. Jiang, you haven't learned to cook before, so what do you eat at home? Do you order takeaway?"

"No." Jiang Yu'an replied: "When I was in school, I lived with my parents in an old house, and there was a nanny who cooked meals at home. Later, when I worked, I ate outside if I had meals, and ate in the company cafeteria if I didn't have meals. Go home again. Nowadays, young people like to order takeaway, but I still prefer to eat in the cafeteria, at least the food is clean, and I come back early after eating, and I can write and read books, which is much more efficient than waiting for takeaway .”

It was the first time Feng An heard Jiang Yu'an mention his own life, and only now did he realize that Jiang Yu'an's family background was superior. He was a young master when he was a child, and he lived a pampered life until now. He is still a respectable and honorable big boss. It's no wonder he can't even wash the dishes.

So he said: "Mr. Jiang, in fact, according to your conditions, if you have a child in the future, you can hire a nanny. You don't have to cook by yourself. How tiring it is."

Jiang Yu'an picked up all the washed spinach and said with a smile: "Yes, the nanny must be hired, otherwise I can't bring it here by myself. But I should learn how to cook, after all, the nanny's cooking is the same as that of my father. Cooking food has a different meaning, right?"

Feng An handed him the drain pan, feeling emotional, thinking of a young master who never worked hard, lived a decent life until he was 40 years old, and now he is willing to let go of his status and learn to wash his hands and make soup. To be moved, so I couldn't help but enviously said: "It's really a blessing to be Mr. Jiang's child."

Jiang Yu'an took the drain pan, glanced at him, and said, "That's not necessarily the case. Happiness is a very subjective thing, and everyone's feelings are different. The protection that parents can give their children is limited, what will happen to their future life? , or you have to make your own choice. The most important thing is to see what you desire. When a person values ​​money, of course he will feel that a superior material life is happiness. But for people who are not short of money, money itself is not What does it mean, sometimes it becomes a burden. Doing things you are interested in, falling in love with the person you like, and living the life you want are all things that can make people feel happy, and there is no uniform standard , It depends on whether you are willing to fight for it. What has happened can’t be changed, but the future can be chosen. In this regard, everyone is equal regardless of their origin, so there is no need to envy others.”

Feng An was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice, "You are right."

Jiang Yu'an smiled, wiped his hands and gently pushed his shoulder: "Okay, let's go out and eat cake. I'm going to set up a frying pan here, so don't splash it on you."

This day's dinner didn't taste very good. Jiang Yu'an's dishes were superficial and devoid of connotation. Although they looked shiny and decent, they tasted bland when they tasted them.Jiang Yu'an took a sip by himself, and immediately frowned, dissatisfied: "The taste is too bland."

Feng An encouraged him and said: "Actually, it's pretty good. Many people burn the dishes for the first time. You just didn't add enough seasonings. Just add more next time."

Jiang Yu'an sighed with some melancholy: "So I don't like to cook Chinese food. Most of the Chinese food tutorials--videos or books, always like to use words like "appropriate amount" and "a little", which is simply frustrating. Take care."

Feng An picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks, and said as a matter of course: "Chinese people speak reservedly, they don't say everything clearly, it depends on how the other party understands."

Jiang Yu'an raised his eyebrows, and said slowly: "If this kind of attitude is put into work, commercial fraud will occur."

Feng An was taken aback for a moment, then couldn't help laughing out loud, holding his job bowl and teasingly said: "Mr. Jiang, you are so serious."

Jiang Yu'an looked at Feng An, and was startled. It was the first time he saw Feng An showing such a smile. His eyes were bright, his brows were stretched, and two clear dimples appeared on his cheeks. It was a pure and innocent smile, childish. And sweet.

Looking at Feng An like this, Jiang Yu'an's eyes became soft unconsciously.

After dinner, Jiang Yu'an took Feng An downstairs for a walk, and didn't go too far, just wandering around the neighborhood.Although it is not yet the Spring Festival, the community has been decorated, and the property has hung red lanterns on every street lamp.The two walked side by side on the road, Jiang Yu'an asked Feng An: "Do you have any plans for the Spring Festival? Do you stay in Shenzhen? Or go back to your hometown?"

Feng An thought for a while and said, "It should be going back to my hometown."

Jiang Yu'an asked again: "Have you bought the ticket yet?"

Feng An knew that on such a big day as the Spring Festival, he should go home no matter what, but when he thought about it, he was actually unwilling to go back and face Feng Jiaguang, so he kept procrastinating on buying the ticket.Hearing Jiang Yu'an's question at this time, he felt a little guilty, and replied slowly: "The tickets for the Spring Festival are not easy to buy, and you have to grab them. I've been brushing them for the past two days."

Jiang Yu'an hummed, and said, "If it's not easy to grab, don't grab it. I'll arrange a driver to take you back."

"...Isn't that too troublesome?"

"It's nothing to worry about. This is the driver's job." Jiang Yu'an said, "Besides, it's not very safe on the train during the New Year's Eve. I feel more at ease if you go back in my car."

Feng An turned his face to look up at him, and asked strangely, "Why is it not safe on the train?"

Jiang Yu settled down for a while, and his expression was a little embarrassed: "On the train..." He didn't want to talk about his old age anymore, and he even lost his wallet on the train, but he couldn't think of any way to end the conversation. So I had no choice but to continue to say with a little helplessness: "There are thieves."

As soon as this remark came out, Feng An looked at him with subtle eyes, but fortunately, he didn't ask too much, just nodded in agreement, and said very seriously: "Yes, be careful."

Jiang Yu'an rubbed his nose, didn't speak any more, and silently led Feng An to continue walking.There is an enclosed playground in the center of the community. There are iron equipment for the elderly to exercise in the venue, and there are also climbing slides for children to play.During the time after dinner every day, many people come here for activities. Of course, there are relatively few elderly people exercising, and most of them are nanny leading the employer's children out to play.When Jiang Yu'an and Feng An passed by the door, it was bustling inside, and Jiang Yu'an happened to be a bit addicted to cigarettes, so he let Feng An go in for a walk, and went to smoke under the shadow of the trees on the other side of the path.

The playground was full of children running around, Feng An found an empty chair in the corner near the entrance and sat down, bent over and rested his chin, watching a little girl swinging on the opposite side.The little girl looked like five or six years old, wearing a padded jacket with rabbit ears, sitting on a swing and playing alone, with a middle-aged woman dressed as a nanny standing not far away.

The middle-aged woman was leading a big black-and-white fur dog, and was chatting with a few nannies of the same age next to her, and would glance at the little girl from time to time.The little girl played alone for a while, probably feeling bored, so she ran to the plastic castle next door to Feng An, wanting to line up to play on the slide.

There are many children playing on the slide, noisy.The little girl with rabbit ears lined up for a while, and when it was about to be her turn, a boy suddenly appeared next to her, grabbed her clothes, pushed her back, and pushed herself to the front of the line.

The little girl was short, and she staggered and fell to the ground, crying immediately.Seeing that something was wrong, the nanny who was following her quickly led the dog and trot over to help the child, but halfway there, probably because she was afraid that the dog in her hand would scare the other children, stopped and looked around, and walked towards Feng An come over.

"Young man, can you do me a favor—" She said to Feng An anxiously, "Look at the dog for me, I'll be over in a while!"

Feng An stood up almost instantly: "I..."

He didn't want to agree at first, but looking at the earnest face of the woman in front of him, he couldn't say the words of refusal.

"Then, hurry up..." he stammered.

The woman couldn't wait to put the leash into his hand, and ran over before he finished speaking.

Feng An stood stiffly on the spot, lowered his head and met the eyes of the big dog in front of him.The dog is really big. Although it is just squatting on the ground now, it can be seen that its limbs are strong, its hair is long, its mouth is long, and its tongue is crooked and half of it is exposed.

He is afraid of dogs, especially big dogs of this kind.There are also many people in the countryside who keep dogs, and they don't know how to tie them with ropes. He was bitten by a neighbor's wolf dog when he was a child.

Jiang Yu'an hadn't finished his cigarette yet, so he accidentally glanced at the opposite side, and saw that Feng An suddenly had a dog in his hand.One person and one dog stood in the corner, all motionless, and the same posture was stiff and weird.Curious, he approached and stood in front of the barbed wire fence to look inside, and found that the dog knew him. It was Bourne Hill, who was raised by a family in the building behind. He was often led for a walk in the community by the nanny. It won't hurt anyone, and of course it's impossible to be afraid of people—but Feng An definitely looks terrified.

Looking further away, Jiang Yu'an really found the nanny of that family.The nanny was squatting on the ground coaxing the youngest daughter of the employer's family. She probably couldn't spare her hands, so she handed the dog over to Feng An for the time being.

Jiang Yu'an stood very close, and continued to smoke quietly, until Feng An seemed to be really about to cry, then he wringed out the remaining cigarettes and threw them into the trash can, then turned around and entered the playground from the door.

"Where did the dog come from?" He walked towards Feng An and asked knowingly.

Feng An suddenly raised his head when he heard the sound, and saw that Jiang Yu'an had finally arrived, as if seeing a savior, his face was full of rescued expressions.Hearing the sound, the Bourne Mountain also stood up from the ground, wagging its tail and turning in a circle - it grew in size, and when it turned around, it inevitably touched Feng An's leg.Feng An lost his mind, lost the leash with a flick of his hand, hid behind Jiang Yu'an and grabbed his arm tightly and said, "No, someone gave it to me, let me look at it..."

Jiang Yu'an bent down to pick up the leash, and asked, "Are you afraid of dogs?"

Feng An also knew that a man would be ashamed if the dog said it, but he really couldn't pretend to be relaxed.Seeing that Jiang Yu'an had already held the dog, he let go and took a big step back, distanced himself from the dog, calmed down a little, blushed slightly and whispered: "A little bit..."

Jiang Yu'an shortened the leash, and made a gesture of squatting down to the dog: "Are you afraid of the dog?"

The dog sat down obediently.

It was only then that Feng An dared to get a little closer, and explained the whole story to Jiang Yu'an, saying that the nanny just now was really in an emergency, and he was too embarrassed to refuse, so he reluctantly agreed.

Jiang Yu'an turned around and looked at him seriously: "Feng An, have you forgotten what I told you before?"

Feng An was taken aback for a moment, with a look of doubt on his face, and blinked his eyes very slowly.

Jiang Yu'an said: "I said, don't do things that you will regret - you are obviously afraid of dogs, why do you still promise others?"

Feng An remembered the conversation that day, he was embarrassed, but also a little wronged, looked at Jiang Yu'an and whispered: "I just want to help, and she said that she will be back soon."

"But the fact is that she hasn't come to take the dog away yet." Jiang Yu'an said.

Jiang Yu'an's voice was light, although the tone was reproachful, it wasn't too serious.But Feng An suddenly felt very sad, he pursed his lips and looked sideways, and stopped talking.

Jiang Yu'an sighed deeply, reached out to hold his hand, and pulled him to sit on the bench together: "Feng An, I am very worried about you. If this dog really wants to bite you, what will you do? Then take Did the vase hit it?"

Feng An suddenly opened his eyes wide, staring at him fixedly.

Jiang Yu'an reached out and touched his hair gently, full of worry: "Sometimes, it is irresponsible to care too much about other people's feelings. When you pay for others, that person may not be I will take your kindness seriously, but if you get hurt because of this, the person who cares about you must be the saddest. So there is no need to force yourself to do things you don’t like-don’t you want to do it for someone who doesn’t care about you? Do you want to hurt the people around you who cherish you?"

Feng An stared at him, and suddenly felt even more sad, because Jiang Yu'an's words made him finally realize that there had never been such a person around him; his mother chose his younger sister, his father only knew to ask for money from him, and Ji Chunshen She took care of him, but let him spend the night with investors - only Jiang Yu'an was different.

Jiang Yu'an is very gentle and reliable, never forcing him to do anything he doesn't like, if this is cherishing, then Jiang Yu'an is the first person he meets in his life who cherishes himself.

However, he is just a "sparing partner" invited by Jiang Yu'an with money, they are not real relatives, not even friends.When the contract ends, will Jiang Yu'an still treat him so well and cherish him like this?

Probably not...

The nanny finally coaxed the employer's daughter, and walked over holding the little girl's hand.Jiang Yu'an returned the dog to her, and she thanked Feng An embarrassedly, then led the little girl and the dog away.

Jiang Yu'an looked at Feng An for a while, seeing that he still refused to speak, so he stood up and said, "Let's go back."
