Chapter Twenty-Four: Home!
In the morning, Zhao Qi had already called his family, saying that he would go home for dinner tonight, and when Zhao Qi was about to get home, when he saw his family of three waiting anxiously for him in the alley outside the house, his nose was sour, and tears came down.
I haven't seen each other for two months, and I can only rely on the phone to contact him, and sometimes when the signal is not working, Zhao Qi hasn't even called back for several days. For this reason, Zhao Mu and Song Xia, who were at home, were worried to death. Secretly, Song Xia didn't know how many times she had wiped her tears.
"Mom and Dad, I'll be back." Wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Zhao Qi walked over from a distance with a smile, and gave Song Xia a big hug with open hands.
"Okay, good, just come back." Song Xia's tears only fell, and she kept touching Zhao Qi's body, for fear that a piece of meat was missing.
"You've traveled far enough this time, I heard that you even went to Tibet? Take me to play next time. Zhao Mu pretended to be calm and patted his son's shoulder, which was already higher than his own, but from his trembling hands, Zhao Qi knew that his heart was not calm. Zhao Qi looked back at his sister who had not said a word.
"You're about to start school, aren't you?" My sister Zhao Ranran is already a sophomore, and like Zhao Qi, she started school on September 1st.
"I want to wait until my brother comes back." A simple sentence revealed Zhao Ranran's sincere emotions that he was not good at expressing, Zhao Qi nodded with a smile, and walked forward with a hug of the family.
"Let's go, go home."
A sumptuous dinner has been prepared at home, and the brother-in-law's family is also waiting for Zhao Qi at home. Faced with this table of hometown dishes that he hadn't eaten for a long time, what Zhao Qi ate was an exaggeration, and basically half of the dishes on a large table went into Zhao Qi's stomach. Song Xia, who had never left her son's body, was distressed.
"How much suffering has this kid suffered outside? How can you be hungry like this? "Thinking about it, the tears are about to fall again.
"Oops, I almost forgot about him." Zhao Qi, who was eating, patted his head and hugged the basketball out of his chest.
"Wake up, what time is it? Still sleeping! After shaking the sleeping Zhengxiang's basketball, he finally pulled the little guy out of his sleep. Opening his confused little eyes, the basketball looked at the unfamiliar environment around him, and when he saw a pair of eyes that he had never seen before scanning back and forth on his body, he was suddenly startled, stood up and began to grin in warning.
The puppy that was taken out abruptly, and then the cute puppy grinned abruptly, which made the family dumbfounded.
"Xiao Qi, you bought this back?" Uncle Song Jun reached for the basketball and was about to touch his head. The basketball was gnawed at Song Jun's hand.
"Sit down." Zhao Qi gave an order, and the basketball reluctantly withdrew the teeth that he was about to grit down, and sat back on the ground a little stupidly. It scared Song Jun out of his mind, and a cold sweat broke out on his head.
"Xiao Qi, what kind of dog is this? So fierce? ”
"Hehe, uncle, this is a Tibetan mastiff, can it not be fierce?" Zhao Qi touched the head of the basketball and replied with a smile.
"Tibetan mastiff? Where did you get the Tibetan mastiff? And the Tibetan mastiff doesn't seem to be white, right? ”
Zhao Qi had no choice but to tell them the origin of the basketball, but Zhao Qi didn't say some things that were inconvenient to say, such as the dozen bearded men with guns.
When everyone heard that the snow mastiff had finally died in order to save his child, they were all embarrassed.
"Hey, think about this snow mastiff, and think about some people now, it's really incomparable." The little aunt sighed and said.
"Xiao Qi, I heard that Tibetan mastiffs are very fierce, will it bite?" Song Xia asked on the side.
"No, Mom, I didn't teach him just now, that's why he is like this, and when I teach it well in the future, he won't bite, you just treat it as the same as the gray head of them." Speaking of this, Zhao Qi also thought of the question about the dog license. Raising a Tibetan mastiff is different from raising a cat and a turtle and a bird. Generally speaking, large dogs and fierce dogs are not allowed to apply for a dog license in the city, but King County is not a big city, and the smaller the place, the easier it is to do things. Looks like I'm going to help basketball get the dog license tomorrow. Otherwise, if someone reports it, it will inevitably not cause some trouble.
Dinner was not finished until eight o'clock in the evening, and on the dinner table, Zhao Qi picked out some of what he saw and heard along the way and told everyone to listen, which made them very fascinated, and Xiao Jiejie also shouted that she would go with Zhao Qi again in the future.
After dinner, the brother-in-law's family also said goodbye to Zhao Qi's family, and there was only a family of four left in the family. But there is not much time left for reunion, the day after tomorrow is September 1st, and my sister Zhao Ranran will leave home tomorrow to go to college.
"Mom and Dad, is everything okay at home?" Sitting on the sofa with a basketball in his arms, Zhao Qi's family chatted.
"Everything is fine at home, no different from when you left."
"What about business?"
"Business is very good, and thanks to you for coming up with such a great idea. Now that fast-food restaurant is doing a great deal. I can't even figure out what's so good about these fried foods, and those young people about your age come here almost every day. "Speaking of the fast food restaurant opened by Zhao Qiji, it can be regarded as famous in Jin County and has become a new dating mecca. This made Zhao Mu, who was the boss, a little confused.
"Dad, you don't understand the thinking of young people now." Zhao Qi couldn't explain it well for a while, so he didn't want to say it carefully.
"How is the hot pot restaurant, is the business okay?"
"Well, the business of the hot pot restaurant is very stable, and it has flattened recently, but there is still a net profit of thousands of yuan a day. Your mom has quit her job now and come to help me. Listening to Zhao Mu's words, Zhao Qi glanced at Song Xia strangely, after all, Song Xia still has a lot of feelings for her job as a math teacher, why didn't she quit her job after seeing her for two months?
"Your dad said that being a teacher is not good for your health, and you eat chalk ash every day. Besides, I'm almost at retirement age, so it's better to rest early to recuperate, and I'll have to take my grandchildren with me in the future. As soon as he heard Song Xia's words, Zhao Qi knew that he was being used as a gun by his father, but he also cared, as long as his parents were happy.
The family talked until about eleven o'clock in the evening, and then they went back to bed. And lying on the bed that he had slept on for so many years, Zhao Qi also fell asleep quickly, and the poor basketball was used to who was on Zhao Qi's body, and suddenly letting it sleep alone really killed him, basically lying on the flannel for a night.
Early the next morning, Zhao Qi got up refreshed, and after sending off his sister who went to school, Zhao Qi went out with a basketball, and today he got a dog license for it. Compared with the troublesome process of applying for a dog license in a big city outside, Zhao Qi couldn't help but be glad that he lived in the county seat. Basically, as soon as a few phone calls are made, things will be green all the way, and it will be very smooth. Uncle Song Junsanjiao knows a lot of people, and he had already made a phone call last night. I went to the hospital with a basketball and got a rabies injection, and after raising rabies, I went directly to the police station to take pictures and get a certificate.
Ignoring the surprised expressions of the people at the police station after hearing that the basketball was a Tibetan mastiff, Zhao Qi quickly completed everything, paid the money, took the things and left.
"You're going to be a person with status in the future, and you can't bite people indiscriminately, you know? If you don't obey, I'll send you to be sterilized immediately. "Last night, Zhao Qi had already explained that he was not allowed to bite in the future. After the baptism of the spirit pill, the intellectual level of basketball has improved not by one or two points, and he understands what Zhao Qi said.
On the way home, Zhao Qi passed by his fast food restaurant, thought about it and walked in with a basketball.
"Hello, need something." As soon as I entered the door and walked to the ordering table, a familiar voice came.
"Mu Han? Why are you here? At the ordering table, Qian was wearing a work uniform, and it was Zhao Qi's classmate Mu Han.
"Ah, Zhao Qi. Are you back? Reese, Zhao Qi is back. Mu Han looked up at Zhao Qi and immediately screamed in surprise, and what Zhao Qi didn't expect was that with Mu Han's shout, another woman in work clothes turned her head and rushed over with an excited face.
……
Sitting on the sofa, Zhao Qi looked clear.
"I see, you've been working for two months for so long?"
"Yes, when I was just on vacation, I saw that there was a temporary job to be recruited here, and I was idle, so I came over. When I came over, I saw that it was Uncle Zhao's shop, and then I knew that it was opened by your family. Zhao Qi, you have done a good job of secrecy, I'm afraid that we will eat and drink here for nothing? Mu Han has also become a lot more cheerful with Zhao Qi and others in the past few years, at least when he is with Zhao Qi and them, he doesn't talk as little as before.
"No, the main thing is that I don't want to be too ostentatious, after all, the business of the two stores is very good, and the classmates will inevitably have no bad thoughts when they know about it." In the eyes of teenage children, Zhao Qi also knows this very well, so he has not said it.
"Uncle Zhao is very good to us, and the salary is very high, and the work here is not busy, just order food. I have my aunt to help with the cleaning and everything, and if school isn't going to start soon, I'd really like to stay here for a while. Hey, now it's only Saturday, Sunday and the time of the holidays. Lei Xi hadn't seen Zhao Qi for two months, and she missed her very much, so she only stared at Zhao Qi at this time, and her admiration was beyond words.
"Zhao Qi, where have you been during this time? Ask Uncle Zhao and he said you went on a trip. Where did you go? Reese asked.
"I went to Tibet, you see, this little guy brought it back from there." Pointing to the basketball at your feet. The two girls were immediately attracted by the snow-white basketball.
