Chapter 6 Dad
Just as I was about to get home, I saw a black sedan parked not far from my home.
The license plate number of the black sedan is 6876.
Looking at the black car, my pedaling speed suddenly slowed down, and my heart that had been put down was also suspended.
Because I could never be mistaken, it was my dad's license plate number.
My dad, back.
I can't describe how horrible my heart was at that moment, I just felt like my limbs were a little unconscious.
But counting the time, it's time for Dad to come back. At the beginning of the National Day, I called him to ask when he would come back, and he said that it was a week or two more, and anyway, it was about this time.
It's just that I still didn't expect my dad to come back so suddenly, and he didn't even call me beforehand.
Feeling the pounding heartbeat in my chest, I told myself to be calm, to be calm.
I had already hidden Jiaqi in the underground warehouse before I went out today, and I had already hidden all the items in my bedroom that could prove Jiaqi's existence, as long as Jiaqi didn't cry and Dad didn't go to the underground warehouse to go to the underground warehouse, he probably wouldn't have found Jiaqi.
Thinking about it made my nerves relax a little, at least I didn't have the panic I felt when I first saw my father's car.
After settling down, I finally rode home, there was no Dad in the car, it seemed that Dad should be in the house.
I parked my bike at the corner outside the door of my house, and instead of going straight into the house, I sneaked into the house to take a sneak peek at the house, and then I sneaked into the underground garage of the house, all the way down to the second basement floor.
I was very nervous the whole time. I'm afraid that I will make a little noise and my dad will hear it, or my dad will suddenly come out of the house and see me sneaking around.
It was only when I entered the warehouse on the second basement floor that I saw the tape on the iron door of the underground warehouse and breathed a sigh of relief.
Every time before I go out, I will stick a strip of double-sided tape on the joint under the door and door frame of the underground warehouse, as long as someone enters the door, then the double-sided tape will be torn off, and when I checked the door of the warehouse this time, I saw that the double-sided tape was not torn off, so I knew that my father should not have entered the warehouse door, so I was relieved.
Using the key to open the warehouse door, I sneaked into the warehouse, jumped to the back of the refrigerator carton, and was relieved to see the sleeping little Jiaqi lying peacefully in the box in the corner.
Damn, fortunately I wasn't found out by my dad.
I picked up the baby bottle in the corner, I put the milk powder bag, the baby bottle and the electric kettle here in advance, and there was already a faucet in the underground warehouse that could be filled with water, so as long as I had the electric kettle and milk powder, I would not go home to pour the hot water in the water dispenser in the future, as long as I took the time to boil the water, I could also feed Jiaqi.
Seeing that Jiaqi was still asleep, I first filled the electric kettle with water and boiled the water in the underground warehouse.
In less than ten minutes, the water was boiling, and I immediately brewed the milk powder with hot water, and at the same time lowered the temperature with cold water from another kettle, and boiled water to feed Jiaqi.
Because Jiaqi is still asleep, I have to wake her up first, but once I wake her up, I am afraid that she will cry, and it will be a big deal if my father hears it.
Looking at Jiaqi who was asleep, I fell into hesitation.
But after hesitating for 5 minutes, I decided to wake up Jiaqi. After all, I've tested it before, and it's hard to hear the cry on the ground in the underground warehouse, not to mention that Dad is in a room a little distance from the garage now, so he shouldn't be able to hear it.
After thinking about it like this, I let it go, but I still shook little Jiaqi and woke the little guy up.
As I expected, as soon as I woke up the little guy and was about to open his mouth and cry, I hurriedly stuffed the bottle into her mouth before she cried a second time, and patted her on the back and asked her to drink the milk.
Obediently, it seems that the milk is still quite useful, and as soon as the little guy has milk to drink, the crying immediately stops.
I gently patted her on the back and watched her drink the milk, and the boulder in my heart slowly fell.
After drinking a bottle of milk, Xiao Jiaqi did not fall asleep immediately, but hummed again, as if she was about to cry, but I immediately picked it up and shook it gently, and she quickly calmed down under my shaking.
Seeing that little Jiaqi fell asleep again, I put her back in the box.
When I put Jiaqi back, I smelled a sour smell, and I knew that Jiaqi must have wet the bed again, but considering that my dad was at home, I didn't care about changing her diaper, so I just closed the door of the warehouse and walked out again.
Creeping out of the underground garage, I was the first to walk towards the house.
I know Dad is in the house.
After entering the house, I heard the sound of the TV, followed the sound source into the hall, and at first glance I saw a tall and thin middle-aged man with short hair sitting on the wooden sofa with the remote control and watching the TV with Erlang's legs crossed, with a silver-blue tie tied on his chest, and the gray suit was thrown on the back of the sofa on the side, the man's face was quiet, but his eyes were very deep.
That man was my dad.
And judging from the dress, my father has just arrived home.
As if hearing my footsteps, my father immediately turned his head and looked at me with a pair of pitch-black eyes.
"Dad. "I screamed first.
"Well, you're back?" Dad looked at me, his eyes showing a hint of joy at reunion after a long absence.
"Hmm. I nodded, again grinning, and sat down on the other end of the couch.
"Have you eaten lunch?" Dad asked first when he saw me sit down.
"Not yet," I said, after a pause, and I thought it was not appropriate to say so, and I added, "I want to come back and burn it myself." ”
"Isn't there a cafeteria in the school?
Thankfully, because of what just happened yesterday, I have a good reason.
"The school cafeteria has been temporarily closed for the past few days due to food problems, and many students have diarrhea after eating, so the school canteen is not open these days. ”
"Oh, and that kind of thing? What about you...... Didn't you have a bad stomach, did you?" Dad seemed a little concerned.
"I'm fine, I didn't have a bad stomach. I said casually. If I, as a drug addict, can also eat bad stomach, then I am too unprofessional.
"That's good...... Be careful when eating, and don't eat anything that you don't think is fresh. Dad said, got up from the couch, and said, "You haven't eaten lunch, so I'll make it for you." It just so happens that I haven't eaten either. ”
"Oh, that's fine. "I looked at my father's back as he walked towards the kitchen, and I was a little dumbfounded.
Dad did the cooking himself, which surprised me a little. Although I also know that my father can cook, but I am not late for my father's cooking many times, usually only on weekends have the opportunity, usually I go to the noodle restaurant or cook by myself.
Dad is usually a person who doesn't talk much, and he seems to be more deep, maybe my introverted personality is inherited from him.
About half an hour later, Dad made a meal, because it was a temporary home, Dad didn't buy much vegetables, just bought a roast duck and a bag of cured meat from the nearby farmer's market, plus there were still some eggs left in the refrigerator at home, Dad made a bowl of egg mustard soup, and he and I made do with two dishes and one soup.
I ate with him in the living room, watching TV while eating.
During the meal, my father asked me a lot of things.
First, he asked me how I was doing in school, a question that seems to be a habitual question that both parents are used to. But my answer is more casual, mainly that I get along with my classmates quite well, and the class is more serious, but the course is not very suitable because it is a new course and the new teacher, but I should be able to adapt to it in the future.
And after that. Just ask me what I've been doing at home lately and where I've been playing.
As an otaku, of course, it's impossible for me to do anything, and as for the adoption of Jiaqi, I naturally can't say it, so I'm very honest and say that I've been sleeping and playing at home for the past few days, and I haven't done anything except go out to party with my classmates once.
My answers were vague and general, because I had already thought of these words, and it was not very difficult to answer them casually. After all, Abu also knows my character, he knows my heart, and he usually likes to stay at home, so he didn't ask much in the end.
"Jiandong, Dad told you that you have to be more serious when you reach high school. Your high school entrance examination results are ranked high in the class, and you have to work hard, don't be caught up by other classmates, those aunts and uncles in the company have a high evaluation of you, take out some grades to show them that your father has a bright face, you know?"
"Oh, I know. I nodded as I ate my meal.
"Dad is also very busy at work, and he can't always come to push you, so it's up to you. You have to be sensible. ”
Dad's lesson is basically the same, and it hasn't changed much since junior high school. The biggest effect of my academic performance for him is actually to show off and compare in front of those colleagues and cadres in his company, and win glory for him.
"Hmm. ”
"It's good that you know. ”
After talking about some regular family mottos, Dad didn't say anything more.
At the end of lunch, I looked at the sound of my father holding the dishes and chopsticks and preparing to take them to the kitchen, remembered Jiaqi, and couldn't help but casually ask, "Dad, will you be at home these days?"
