Chapter 7: Home
"Zhou Qing, will you get into trouble by doing this?" After Liu Hu and the others left, Xiao Jingyu asked with some concern.
She knew that Zhou Qing had changed a lot in the past six years, but Boss Jin was not good at stubble after all.
"Don't worry, I'm not Zhou Qing six years ago. Zhou Qing replied calmly.
Hearing this, Xiao Jingyu didn't want to say anything more, so she had to nod.
She looked at Zhou Qing, but found that Zhou Qing was looking at her, and both of them had a thousand words in their hearts, but when they came to their mouths, they didn't know where to start.
"What about Mom and Dad?" Zhou Qing asked after breaking his calm.
"I've gone out to buy groceries, and I should be back soon. Xiao Jing replied softly.
For a moment, the two fell silent again.
The incident six years ago is a bit impossible for both of them to look back on.
Finally, Zhou Qing still mustered up the courage to say: "Sister-in-law, in fact, I ...... six years ago."
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Jingyu immediately interrupted: "You don't have to explain, I know everything, let it pass in the past, don't mention it again." ”
Zhou Qing was stunned, he actually wanted to say that when he woke up the night six years ago, Xiao Jingyu was lying beside him, and he didn't do anything.
Explaining clearly earlier can also allow Xiao Jingyu to open her heart knot earlier.
But now that he was interrupted by Xiao Jingyu, it was not easy for him to bring up the old things.
As for the fact that the Qin family and the uncle's family did it, it is no secret, but for Xiao Jingyu now, even if she knows it, what can she do?
"Jingyu, come downstairs and help get something. Just then, a familiar voice came from the first floor.
"Mom and Dad are back. Xiao Jingyu heard the voice, looked at Zhou Qing and said with a smile.
Zhou Qing's figure froze, and then immediately ran down to the first floor.
"Today, the vegetable seller is here again, and this dish is fresh. Zhang Ling said as she stood on the side of the road and removed the vegetables she had bought from the trunk of the black car.
Zhou Qing stood at the door of the first floor, looking at the familiar figure, his nose was sore, and tears had blurred his vision.
"Mom, look who's coming. Xiao Jingyu stood beside Zhou Qing and said with a smile.
"Who? are you the bastards surnamed Liu?" Zhang Ling carried two large plastic bags of fresh vegetables and turned to look at Xiao Jingyu.
The next moment, two large plastic bags of vegetables slipped from her fingertips, and she stared blankly at the two people standing at the door, muttering to herself, "I'm not dreaming." ”
"Mom, I'm back. Zhou Qing choked up a little.
I haven't seen her for six years, and my mother Zhang Ling looks a lot older than before, and she has become much thinner.
Before, she looked like she was only in her thirties, but now, the years are full of frowns written on her face.
"Old Zhou, don't hide there and smoke, Zhou Qing is back!" At this time, she reacted, and said excitedly at the middle-aged man who was squatting on the side and swallowing the clouds.
"What?" Zhou Zhenbin suspected that he had misheard.
Seeing this, Zhang Ling walked over and kicked him directly from the ground, and said loudly: "Zhou Qing is back, your son is back!"
My son died six years ago!
Zhou Zhenbin was about to refute, but he happened to catch a glimpse of Zhou Qing and Xiao Jingyu standing at the door of the restaurant, and for a while, his hands holding cigarettes trembled.
"Wife, I'll kick me again. Zhou Zhenbin looked at Zhou Qing at the door blankly.
When Zhang Ling heard this, she kicked him hard and cried with joy.
"My son is back!" Zhou Zhenbin reacted at this time, and the old tears were in tears.
Suddenly, he threw the cigarette butt in his hand on the ground, stepped on it twice, then took off his leather shoes and strode towards Zhou Qing.
"Little bastard, do you still know to come back?" Zhou Zhenbin stared at Zhou Qing angrily, raised the leather shoes in his hand and was about to start.
But seeing Zhang Ling directly in front of Zhou Qing, she glared at Zhou Zhenbin and scolded: "You old thing, if you have the ability, beat me!"
Zhou Zhenbin looked at Zhang Ling, and then at his son Zhou Qing, so he had to sigh and put down his shoes.
"What a defeat a loving mother, if you hadn't spoiled him so much, he wouldn't have caused a big disaster!" Zhou Zhenbin said angrily.
"You and I know what that catastrophe is all about!" Zhang Ling said coldly at Zhou Zhenbin.
"That's it, don't mention it. Zhou Zhenbin sighed and put his leather shoes back on.
Zhou Qing stood aside, smiling at all this, tears had already broken the embankment.
For six years, he has been missing his parents all the time, and the more time he has been separated, the more he misses him, and now, he has finally returned.
"Mom and Dad, let's go home and talk. Xiao Jingyu gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said with a smile.
"Yes, let's go home. Zhang Ling immediately replied.
……
The home is still the one that Zhou Qing is familiar with, a three-bedroom and one-living room house that adds up to just 100 square meters, although the space is a little small, but every place is full of memories and warmth.
The family sat on the sofa and stared at Zhou Qing quietly about what had happened in the past six years.
"So, you lost your memory after being rescued, and you only recently regained your previous memories?" Zhang Ling looked at Zhou Qing with some shock.
"The doctor said it was dissociative amnesia, probably because I had been in the water for too long and had no oxygen, which caused brain damage. Zhou Qing explained that on the way back, he had already thought about it, and he would not explain the matter of the system to his parents for the time being.
At their age, it's hard to believe what they're saying.
"Is it serious, will there be sequelae?" Zhang Ling hurriedly asked.
"No, only slightly damaged, the doctor said that as long as it recovers, it will not be affected. Zhou Qing replied with a smile.
"That's good. Zhang Ling breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back. She grabbed Zhou Qing's hand and repeated in a low voice.
"Mom, I'm sorry. Zhou Qing's face was full of guilt.
Under the light, he can see the faces of the two more clearly, in just six years, the two look like they are twenty years older, which shows how much care the two have worked on in the past six years.
"Bastard thing, say I'm sorry, don't cause trouble in the future, just live a good life as a family. Zhou Zhenbin on the side reprimanded.
"Got it, Dad. Zhou Qing immediately replied.
The family chatted for a long time, and an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and the expressions of the four of them calmed down a little.
"You must be hungry, Mom will go cook for you, and it will be fine soon." At this time, Zhang Ling stood up and walked to the kitchen.
"Lao Zhou, come and wash the vegetables. She hadn't taken two steps before she exclaimed.
"Got it. Zhou Zhenbin reluctantly responded and followed into the kitchen.
After the two left, only Zhou Qing and Xiao Jingyu were left on the sofa in the living room.
"Sister-in-law, thank you all these years. Zhou Qing looked at Xiao Jingyu and said sincerely.
From the conversation just now, he learned that Xiao Jingyu has been helping his mother open a restaurant for the past six years, and his father Zhou Zhenbin has returned to his original school as a primary school teacher, and the three of them have supported them all the way to the present.
"They're my mom and dad too. Xiao Jingyu replied calmly.
Zhou Qing glanced at Xiao Jingyu and said in a low voice: "Actually, my brother has had an accident for so long, you should find another one." ”
At the beginning, Xiao Jingyu and his eldest brother Zhou Yan had just become engaged, and Zhou Yan had a car accident, and it has been more than six years until now.
"I'll consider it when I meet the right one. Xiao Jingyu replied lightly, then got up and walked to the kitchen.
