Jiang Xi's reply to the other party at that time was, "I'll think about it." ”

Hanging up the phone, she turned to me and asked, "Do you want to sell it?"

I was stunned, I didn't expect her to ask me such a question, I smiled and said, "Where are we going to live after the sale?"

Jiang Xi looked at me with obscure eyes, and suddenly sighed, "Oh, I have lived in Beijing for more than ten years, and what impressed me the most is two things, first, sandstorms, after coming to Beijing in 98, I feel that there are layers of sandstorms on the windows every autumn, I heard that they are all blown from Gansu in the northwest, and then I heard that they are going to be returned to forests, and there are fewer and fewer sandstorms in recent years, and then ...... The smog was so great that it almost drowned out everyone. ”

I also know very well what she said, I don't remember when it started, Jiang Xi's laryngitis has become very serious, and he will get sick in winter, and he will take a lot of drugs to promote lung cough and moisten the lungs, but the effect is not obvious, and the child will have an upper respiratory tract infection as long as he does not drink water for a day.

I remember once she said, "I'm not in good shape, and from tomorrow, I'm going to go out for a run and exercise." ”

I said, "That's a good thing, you have to stick to it!"

She raised her fist to cheer herself on, "I will definitely be able to hold on." ”

Then, the next day began to be hazy, people who could not go out tried to hide at home, and those who were forced to go out were also armed with thick masks, and the haze came for more than half a month, and after half a month passed, Jiang Xi's passion for running and exercising was gone.

When we think about this, we all have a feeling that Beijing is a good place for young people to seek opportunities, but it is really not a good place to live.

Therefore, when Jiang Xi spoke again, he said, "We don't have a Beijing hukou, and our children are always borrowing in Beijing, and when the college entrance examination comes in the future, we have to go back to the place where the hukou is located to take the exam, which is all troublesome." ”

Jiang Dongxi's hukou was settled in a small place in Liaoning with her mother at that time, because my Nanjing hukou, in the talent market, belongs to the collective hukou, and at that time, the national hukou policy stipulated that if one of the husband and wife is not a collective hukou, the child must go up to the party who is not a collective hukou.

Jiang Xi leaned on my arms and continued, "I have lived in Beijing for more than ten years, because I don't have a Beijing hukou, I can't buy social security and medical insurance by myself, and I always feel like duckweed without roots." ”

This is probably what everyone calls the North Drift! The heart has always been a feeling of drifting, even if you have lived for more than ten years, you don't have the sense of steadiness that takes root and lands.

"So I thought, we might as well sell the house in Beijing, I have been looking at the housing prices in Nanjing recently, I feel that the housing prices in Nanjing are now cheap, in terms of the total price of our house, we choose a better school district house in Nanjing, can be exchanged for two sets of 90 square meters, when the time comes, we rent out a set, a set of their own lives, our family of three have moved their hukou to Nanjing, I and Jiang can buy social security, can enjoy the benefits brought by the local hukou, I think, then our family of three life, may be happier, with a hukou, there will also be a sense of foundation, and the environment in Nanjing is much better than Beijing。 ”

I listened to her imagination of the future, and I felt that her ideas were very good, and I naturally had no opinion, but there was also a problem, that is, there will never be as many job opportunities in Nanjing as in Beijing, especially in the IT industry.

So I said, "I think the housing prices in Beijing can still rise, and the housing prices in Nanjing will definitely not be longer than Beijing, I will develop in Beijing for two more years, on the one hand, I will make more money, on the other hand, I will contact my colleagues in Nanjing more in the past two years, and make sufficient preparations for going to Nanjing. ”

Jiang Xi said, "I'm a little anxious, with the current plan, we sell this one, we can buy two good houses in Nanjing, which is already a good deal, I am already very satisfied, in case Nanjing rises again, Beijing's does not rise, then we can't buy it." ”

I said, "This should not be, if Nanjing rises, Beijing will definitely rise even more, I really think that this plan is not in a hurry to be implemented, it can be delayed for another year or two." ”

Jiang Xi blinked, as if he wanted to say something.

I hurriedly said, "You can believe me once this time, I have a hunch that Beijing will rise sharply." ”

It's rare that Jiang Xi didn't diss my thoughts this time, she smiled and said, "Okay, listen to you, who made you the head of the family." ”

Me, "......".

If she hadn't smiled mischievously and ambiguously, I would have almost believed her truth.

In the first week after Jiang Xi's school, Jiang Xi and I were in a good mood, feeling that the little pigs we raised had finally grown up and were about to become sensible.

In the second week after Jiang Xi's school year, Jiang Xi, who was in a mood like a flower, received a call from the homeroom teacher.

The homeroom teacher is very polite and gentle, "Hey, Jiangdong's mother, hello! I am Jiangxi's homeroom teacher." ”

Jiang Xi immediately said politely, "Ah, hello teacher!"

I saw Jiang Xi's nervous face, as if he had a premonition that something bad was going to happen.

"It's such a Jiangdong mother, Jiangdong is a very well-behaved little girl, she behaves very well in school, she never fights with anyone, and she is also very polite, but it's just a ......."

I saw that Jiang Xi's whole body tensed, his eyes did not blink, and he listened attentively to the teacher's words.

"It's just that Jiang Dongxi's foundation is too poor, our current course is very fast, she seems to be a little unable to keep up, a week after the start of school, we did a unit test, Jiang Dongxi scored ten points, she took the penultimate ......."

Jiang Xi immediately smiled and said, "Hehehe, isn't the question too difficult?

The teacher smiled and said, "There are 45 students in our class, and 20 of them scored 100 points." ”

I was also listening to it at the time, not to mention Jiang Xi, even if I was cold.

Just after a week of school, the exams began, which already made people feel uncomfortable, and there were so many people who scored 100 points, what does this mean? Is the teaching good? No, it can only show that the children have already learned before entering school.

Seeing that Jiang Xi was silent, the teacher said again, "Jiang Dongxi's foundation is too poor, and I still have to ask you as parents to work harder, and take her to work hard!"

Jiang Xi immediately said in a humble tone, "Teacher, I know, I will work hard with Jiang Dongxi." ”

The teacher said, "This matter, we are helpless, now the teaching content is very large, all rely on the forty minutes in the classroom, the child must not be able to keep up, so only parents with their children to work hard, we have a few children in the class can answer English fluently, oral communication is not a problem, there are more than a dozen can read by themselves, know thousands of Chinese characters, you say, like Jiang Dongxi can't even know Chinese pinyin, how can you keep up?"

Jiang Xi was completely silent.

The teacher finally said a few words, "I believe that you parents will catch up with your children by working together, and you must learn all the addition and subtraction within ten and Hanyu Pinyin as soon as possible, come on!"

"Thank you, teacher, I will definitely do my best!" Jiang Xi responded enthusiastically.

"Then goodbye Jiang Dongxi's mother!" the teacher said politely.

"Okay, goodbye teacher!" Jiang Xi responded enthusiastically

When I hung up the phone, I saw that Jiang Xi's face instantly darkened as if ink had been splashed.

She was so angry that she held up her phone and wanted to smash it again? I quickly reached out to pick it up, but she stopped it.

"Don't be angry, wife, the teacher may also be helpless, now it's all like this, the children's grades are also linked to the teacher's income, you have to understand them," I quickly persuaded.

In fact, what I think in my heart is that we ordinary people don't understand and there is no other good way.

Jiang Xi frowned and said, "What I'm angry about is, who wrote that post about not learning anything before going to school?

I didn't say a word, I sent the post to Jiang Xi, and it was obviously written very reasonably, but why wasn't that the case?

"Jiang Dongxi actually took the penultimate exam?" Jiang Xi frowned, looking like he was about to cry.

"It's okay wife, where is this, if you do well in the exam now, you will definitely be able to get into a good university? ”

Jiang Xi sighed, "Ahem, but it's not good now, I can't keep up with the teacher's progress, and it's troublesome to be second to last every time I take the exam, I'm afraid that when the time comes, her mother dropped out of school because she was greedy for fun, and she dropped out of school because she was too stupid." ”

When Jiang Xi said this, I was not happy, "How can you say that about our daughter? Where is Jiang Dongxi stupid? She just hasn't studied hard yet? I've not been busy with work recently, so I'll start teaching her today." ”

At this time, Jiang Dongxi, who was sleeping in the next room, just woke up, pouting with a thick, full mouth, pouting a small bun face like me, his hair was messy, and his eyes were red and said, "Mom is bad, Mom says I'm stupid, woo ......."

I hurriedly walked over, hugged Jiang Dongxi in my arms, and comforted gently, "No, no, my mother didn't say you were stupid." ”

"Mom just said I'm stupid, I don't like Mom anymore, woo......"

The little thing's tears came so quickly, and the two sentences were "uproaring", as if they had been wronged.

"Why do you want to be told that you can get good grades and show me? Why can you be second to last?"

Jiang Dongxi blinked and said, "Because the classmate who took the first place in the exam didn't come." ”

"Poof!hahaha! Girl, do you want to laugh at me?"

I couldn't help but hold Jiang Dongwu in my arms and kiss her on the face, it was so cute.

Jiang Dongxi immediately smiled and said, "That's how it was answered in the sketch, hahahaha!"

So, she was crying aggrieved, but could she still think of such a skin?

I'm really convinced, it's Jiang Xi's daughter, a little drama spirit.

The big drama spirit has no interest in the acting skills of the little drama spirit, Jiang Xi has been looking at Jiang Dongxi with a cold face, "Let your father take advantage of the weekend and these two days to teach you all the addition and subtraction within ten and Hanyu Pinyin, I am going to write now, I will check your addition and subtraction within ten in two hours, and in two hours, I will check your Hanyu Pinyin, immediately, immediately, not a single point can be delayed." ”

After giving the order, Jiang Xi went to another room, closed the door, and went to write behind closed doors, leaving me and Jiang Dongxi.

"Hurry up, Dad will teach you, and try to learn everything Mom said in the past two days. I said as I went to grab the books in her bag.

Jiang Dongxi's small brows frowned, his eyes began to moisten again, and he muttered, "Dad, I don't want to learn, it's too difficult to add and subtract within ten, woo......"

I quickly said, "Dad is a graduate student, and if Dad teaches you, you will definitely learn it easily." ”

"Really, Dad, isn't the graduate student amazing?" Jiang Dongxi looked at me with a curious look on his face.

I'm sure I'm going to make an image in front of my daughter, right, and I immediately said proudly, "Of course." ”

Jiang Dongxi finally smiled, "Then you teach me, I don't think I can learn because the teacher teaches me badly, if you teach me, I will definitely be able to learn well, and what you teach will definitely be better than what the teacher teaches." ”

"Girl, you're absolutely right, let's get started. ”

"Okay Dad!"

Both of us are full of confidence and passion, and we think that if I am a teacher, she will be very successful as a student.

Fifteen minutes later, in the small three-bedroom room, there was a sound that I couldn't remember repeating dozens of times.

Me, "3+5=8!"

Jiang Dongxi, "3+5=8!"

Me, "5+3=How many?"

Jiang Dongxi, "I don't know!"

Me, "......".

Me, "5+3=8".

Jiangxi, "5+3=8".

Me, "3+5=How much?"

Jiang Dongxi, "I don't know!"

Me, "......".

I took a deep breath and told myself to be patient, children learn things slowly, and for them, everything in this world has initial difficulties in accepting.

Me, "8-5=3".

Jiangxi, "8-5=3".

Me, "How many 8-3=?" my face had begun to turn cold, and my eyes had begun to sharpen.

Jiang Dongxi looked at me with a blinking eye, and her answer began to be cautious, and she rolled her eyelids again, looking like she was trying to think.

I thought to myself, it's good to know how to think, and I should be able to answer it correctly this time.

As a result, she thought about it for a long time, and the answer was, "I don't know!"

In the past, I was always amused by Jiang Dongxi, but this time I felt as if two taels of old blood were suffocating from my heart.

I clutched my heart, my breathing was a little rough, my mind was a little blank, and I couldn't remember what I was going to say next.

"Husband, husband, be careful of bursting blood vessels, let me come!"

At this time, I turned my head to look at Jiang Xi who was walking towards us, as if I saw the big hero who stepped on the colorful auspicious clouds to rescue me...... Sure enough, it's true love.

Jiang Xi came to our side and sat across the river from the east and west.

Jiang Dongxi also knew what she had done wrong, and pouted with a small face, looking at her mother cautiously.

Jiang Xi said to me, you go and lie down in the house for a while.

"Oh oh, good!"

I do need to rest for a while, although the hard work of teaching Jiang is nothing, but my inner ability to bear has been hit by 10,000 points.

Is this my eldest daughter in Jiangdong? Is this my eldest daughter in Jiangdong? Is this my eldest daughter who is smart and cute, and who makes everyone laugh from time to time? Is this my eldest daughter who was born with eight pounds, nine pounds, two or four? No, why are you so stupid? Was I so stupid when I was a child? I don't remember it, it must have been Jiang Xi's stupidity when she was a child, that's right! No wonder she always said with a guilty and unconfident face that Jiang Dong also has her genes.

I'd like to go sleep for a while.

Fifteen minutes later, I heard the sound of Mars hitting Earth.

Jiang Xi yelled: "Why are you so stupid?5+3=8, why don't you know that 8+5 is also =3!"

Jiang Dongxi yelled, "I just don't know that 8 + 5 = 3".

Jiang Xi roared, "Dead girl, I'll beat you, you remember it for me, 5+3=8, 8+5=3!"

Jiang Dongxi said unwillingly, "Okay, I remember, 5+3=8,8+5=3, hum!"

When I came out, I saw two tigers in tension, a big tigress and a small tigress, both pinching their waists and glaring at each other.

I helped my forehead, I felt sorry for Jiang Xi, she spent so much effort and was so angry, but what she taught was still wrong, probably really confused.

I hurriedly walked over and hugged Jiang Xi, took her to another room, and when I went out of the room, I kissed Jiang Xi on the face and said, "Wife, you can rest, I have recovered, and I can continue to fight with our eldest daughter." ”

Jiang Xi sighed deeply and said, "I don't know who I look like like this, I didn't think I was so stupid when I was a child?"

I've seen that my wife, my daughter must be like you, I can teach 8 + 5 to = 3, and there is nothing I can't do, but I can't say that.

"Wife, you have worked hard, you go and rest for a while, leave everything to me, I will definitely give the addition and subtraction within ten to Jiang Dongxi Church today." ”

"Hiccup!" Jiang Xi was so angry that she hiccuped, I smoothed her back, and then watched Jiang Xi lie on the bed and rest, it seemed that she was really tired, more tired than staying up all night to write a manuscript.

I turned around and went back to Jiang Dongxi's house, Jiang Dongxi lowered his head, pouted, and shed tears there.

As soon as I saw her aggrieved little look, my heart suddenly softened, "What's wrong with the eldest girl?"

Jiang looked up at me with teary eyes and said, "Dad, am I too stupid? You and Mom don't like me anymore......?" I don't know why I'm so stupid, woo......".

Oh, from Jiang Dongxi's sad crying, I deeply felt Jiang Dongxi's inner pain, a child less than seven years old, just started school for less than two weeks, she is still a child who is ignorant of many things, why do you have to give her such a heavy burden all of a sudden.

We didn't take her to learn these things in advance, just less than two weeks after the start of school to her to accept them all, in fact, this is really a bit of a seedling to promote, even those who learn in advance, but also to promote the seedlings, I have read an article written by a foreign expert before, children at different ages, the degree of development of the brain and limbs is different, six to seven years old children, she has just begun to contact knowledge, they should acquire knowledge in the ocean of play, not like this with the concrete tanker, directly into the child's head to pour knowledge.

"Ah...... Dad, I feel so miserable, I don't want to live anymore, can you quit this school for me? I just need to draw and write well......

Jiang Xi reported to Jiang Dongxi for painting and writing interest classes, these two classes, Jiang Dongxi learned very well, the teacher praised her for her talent, so she was also very interested in learning, this school, her self-confidence was seriously damaged......

I hugged Jiang Dongxi tightly in my arms, and just said, "Don't cry, Dad won't force you to learn......"

"Yes, I won't force you to learn!"

Suddenly, Jiang Xi also walked out of the house, she came to Jiang Dongxi's side, and hugged Jiang Dongxi in her arms with me, wanting to give some comfort to the hurt little thing.

Jiang Xi said gently, "Mom was so fierce to you just now, it's Mom's fault, can you forgive Mom?"

Jiang Dongxi immediately stretched out his hands and hugged Jiang Xi's neck with tears in his eyes and said, "I can forgive my mother, I love my mother the most, woo ......."

Jiang Xi wiped Jiang Shi's tears, and then said, "I thought about it just now, forget it, our child is not yet ready to adapt to these, we should give her some time, I don't believe we don't teach her today, she will not know how much 5+3 = is in three years?"

I immediately agreed, "Wife, you are right, the teacher will call again in the future, you don't have to pay attention, our child will not be bad in the future, if she really can't adapt to domestic education, I will try to take her abroad in the future." ”

Jiang Dongxi immediately smiled, "It's good to go abroad, it's good to go abroad, there is a child in my kindergarten who went abroad, she came back to share with us, saying that foreign children sit on the grass in class, they never leave homework, they just play all day long, and they are very happy." ”

"Okay!" Jiang Xi's eyes were red.

Our family of three hugged each other tightly.

"Maybe Jiang Xi's grades will come up in the future, don't think about going abroad first, my English is not good!"

I laughed again in my heart at the time, I chose A for three long and one short, and B for two long and two short, and it was really embarrassing to go abroad.

This matter passed like this, and after that, the homeroom teacher also called Jiang Xi several times to ask Jiang Xi to take Jiang Xi to work hard, and Jiang Xi was friendly and perfunctory.

Probably after the teacher saw Jiang Xi's attitude, he stopped calling Jiang Xi, and although Jiang Xi's grades were still at the bottom of the class, we could all feel that she was studying hard, so her grades were slowly improving.

In this way, we are already satisfied.

Because we all know that her poor grades are not because she is stupider than other children, but because other children have learned earlier than her, such other people's children have nothing to envy.

Jiang Xi once said when chatting with me, "If Jiang Dongxi can be admitted to a famous university in the future, she will go to a famous university, if she is admitted to a third-rate school, she will go to a third-rate school, if she can't even be admitted to the art major, then let her learn to make cakes, blue x, new x, can't you be? All roads lead to Rome, many cake chefs have become international masters, but no matter what work she does in the future, I just want my daughter to live happily in this life." ”

I said, "Okay!

Jiang Dongxi interjected on the side, "I will be a cake chef, and being a cake chef is my ideal!"

Jiang Xi and I both had green faces.

One day in 2014, I casually glanced at Jiang Xi who was keen to read the real estate information, and suddenly, my heart hurt as if I had been hit by a sword, and I especially regretted the sentence that I had as much as a pretending to be a criminal a year ago.

Because of the sudden gust of wind in 14 years, my family's house worth 4 million has become 3 million, and the house in Nanjing, which was originally worth 2 million, has become 3 million, and the original 4 million can buy two houses, but now it costs 6 million, so after such calculations, the direct loss of our family is 2 million.

My annual salary is 200,000 yuan, which is enough for me to work without eating or drinking for ten years.

I really wanted to hit the wall, and I hated myself for being so self-righteous to interfere with Jiang Xi's plan.

I also complained to Jiang Xi and said, "You said that you are usually in charge of everything, why do you want to ask me about this? If you don't ask me, I won't say anything, you have done everything according to your plan, what can I do even if I don't have a job? I can't earn two million if I have a job!"

Jiang Xi, "......".

Jiang Xi was confused by my complaint, and I guessed that her heart at that time should have been, like that, that......

I just relied on Jiang Xi's remorse and pain to feel sorry for me, not only did she not lose her temper with me, she didn't let me kneel on the keyboard, she didn't even say a word to complain about me, and said helplessly, "Okay, there will be major events at home in the future, and I will never discuss it with you again!"

"Okay, okay, don't discuss with me, you can make your own decisions, I fully trust you. ”

After so many years with her, I deeply realized that her plans are all worth gold, and my thoughts are comparable to shit, so why do I always use my own shit to affect her gold.

I swear that I will never participate in this kind of major event related to the family's fortune in the future.

When I calmed down, I asked Jiang Xi, "Why don't you blame me, because if I said a word, our family will lose two million!"

Jiang Xi smiled and said, "What are you complaining about, it's all outside the body, now we are not short of money to spend, houses, money, are all icing on the cake, it is better to have it, it is not so important if you don't have it, there is a house to live in, there is food to eat, and the most important thing is that the family is healthy and safe together." ”

I covered my face, a little embarrassed, I was thinking, if I married those women who fancy money, she would probably complain about me for the rest of her life, and maybe she wouldn't make me feel better for the rest of her life, of course, what's more serious is that that kind of woman probably won't be too long with me, and I would have been stupid for a long time.

It didn't take long for Jiang Xi to say to me again, "Since the housing prices in Beijing have dropped, let's not sell them first, and then wait, we have 300,000 yuan in our hands for the time being, let's go to Nanjing Qiaobei to buy a cheap one first, I feel that Nanjing's rise is very strong!"

I listened to it at the time, but I didn't react for a long time, what the hell? When did we have 300,000 yuan?

It took me 13 years for my salary to rise to 200,000 yuan, and before that, I had to get more than 100,000 yuan a year.

In the past five years, I have spent a lot of money on eating, drinking, and shaving and various interest classes for my children; every year, Jiang Xi also told me to give my mother 5,000 yuan to fulfill my filial piety; I also paid back the tuition money I owed to my eldest sister and second sister, and we also lent my cousin 50,000 yuan, and then ......

Why can she still save 300,000 yuan?

Did we really obey her? Did our family of three survive drinking the wind?
