It's a pity that there are very few.

He knew that this was very hypocritical, but he couldn't restrain it.

He asked in disguise, "Why are the high school books still there?" ”

"Isn't it always there?"

Ji Fan walked around the room and asked, "Mom, where is my desktop?" ”

Ji's mother thought for a while, "You said no, the machine is old again, and it has moved to the bicycle garage downstairs." ”

Ji Fan asked her for the garage key, went downstairs and moved the desktop up, Ji's mother brought a rag to help him wipe the ashes: "It's been a computer for so long, how can I remember to turn it out, I forgot it, otherwise the last time I sold the old TV, I should have let the family take it away together and occupy space, but it can't be sold for dozens of yuan." ”

Ji Fan smiled, "Don't." ”

Then he said, "The monitor can be sold, and the main chassis is kept." ”

The computer has been useless for too long, the startup program is extremely slow, Ji's mother has left, Ji Fan watched the screen slowly light up, and the desktop of the long-along, infinite starry sky was displayed in front of him.

He adjusted the settings, connected to the Internet, and then opened QQ.

His mobile phone QQ has been open, and naturally there will be no new information on the computer, but this computer has old chat records from ten years ago.

He stared for a moment before he went to Qixi's number and clicked on the chat history.

A series of cute pink fonts pop into view.

It's exactly the font she'll use. Ji Fan was not surprised, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but bend a little.

But when he started to read the chat logs, his smile began to grow astringent.

He was so cold at the time.

The answers are always extremely concise, revealing a bit of polite perfunctory, and even once she asked a too basic question, about the speed of the first universe, he also directly suggested that she go to Baidu.

Later, he just didn't reply.

But she persistently and tirelessly found a topic.

For example-

"I saw you discussing the gap between China and the United States in space technology at the forum, is it really that far away from them?"

For example-

"The discussion in the group is so lively, do you think humans can really immigrate to other planets?"

Later, she finally gave up.

Running his fingers over the wheel, looking at these few conversations repeatedly, Ji Fan almost wanted to go back and say to himself more than ten years ago - how can you be so impatient?

The roller slid to the bottom again, and Ji Fan's eyes suddenly fell on the word "group" in the last sentence.

He remembered that at that time, there was a QQ group of enthusiasts in the aviation forum, could she also be in that group?

He immediately found the group and entered Qixi's QQ number in the search box of the group chat record.

A whole bunch of records jumped out at once.

And sure she was.

She uses the same pink font in the group.

At first, I just interjected carefully, and the group was full of men, who were very enthusiastic about this little girl from high school, and they were not as cold as him at all.

Occasionally, a few childish questions were explained to her in detail.

So her chat in the group became more and more lively, not at all as careful as when she chatted with him alone.

Ji Fan flipped slowly, showing a smile from time to time, either because she was childish and lively at that time, or because she was a little stupid sometimes-obviously the group of friends had answered wrong, and they were still adoring over there.

Soon, the searched chat history was on the last few pages.

Qixi is saying goodbye to the people in the group.

Looking up at the seven stars: I won't come to play in the future.

Daewoo: What's the matter, your parents won't let you?

Looking up at the Seven Stars: No, I'm going to study hard O(∩_∩)O, I'll come to you when I'm admitted to the target university.

Vega: Which one are you targeting?

Looking Up at the Seven Stars: .................. A large.

Ji Fan couldn't help but pause.

At that time, there was also a burst of exclamations in the group.

Peng Peng: People can't look good, girl!

Evil Shao: The ambition is not small.

Looking up at the seven stars: Actually, I don't have any big ambitions = = But I recently confessed to the person I like, he seems to dislike my bad grades, so I want to go to the same university as him, maybe he likes me?

Vega: Men don't look at this...... Seven stars, are you not beautiful enough?

Looking up at the Seven Stars: It's very beautiful- -

Fish Head: Low-key.

Looking up at the Seven Stars: Oh- -

Looking up at the seven stars: Anyway, I think about it, it's just that my grades are not good enough. . . So I'm going to work hard.

Looking up at the Seven Stars: But in fact, my grades are also about 200 in the city.

Fork: The results of the 200 students are very good, and the key universities are very stable.

Look up to the Seven Stars: But he is the first in the city every time.

Fork: ...... OK.

Vega: That's a big difference.

Looking up at the Seven Stars: Hmm. But I'm actually still a little inattentive to studying, and if I take it seriously, I should be able to improve!

Looking up at the Seven Stars: I feel like I can work O(∩_∩)O

The teenage Qixing uses emojis that she no longer uses, optimistically expressing her mood of trying hard.

And thirty-year-old Ji Fan, looking at the records of more than ten years ago, his eyes suddenly became sour.

He suddenly found it difficult to look directly at such a record, and he held his forehead, embarrassed.

After dinner, Ji Fan went out for a walk with his parents, and was constantly asked by acquaintances on the way, "My son is back".

This is the case in small cities, where the neighbors are very familiar with each other and there is no sense of distance.

After walking around the nearby small park twice, Ji's father was stopped by a card friend. He glanced at his wife and children, and was about to refuse, but Ji's mother said, "Go ahead." ”

Father Ji went happily. My son watched it for a few hours, and it was still very attractive to play cards.

Mother Ji smiled and shook her head. The two walked for a while, and Ji's mother suddenly asked, "Do you have something on your mind?" ”

Ji Fan was not surprised that she would ask such a question, he was too obviously out of shape in the afternoon, and his mother had always been sharp.

He was silent for a moment and said, "Three months ago, I asked the unit to resign. ”

A trace of surprise flashed in Ji Fan's mother's eyes, and she sighed for a while and said, "Mom has always felt that you are most like your uncle." When you were a child, you admired him very much, and often bragged to the children that my uncle launched rockets. ”

"Our brothers and sisters, your uncle is the smartest, but he is also the hardest, and he can't take care of his family when he is away all the year round. Once, your grandfather was sick and almost passed away, and we couldn't get in touch with him. At that time, where was communication developed now. Finally, your grandfather rescued him, and we also contacted him and asked him to come back, but he hesitated for a long time and said no, since Dad is good, then he will wait for the end of the mission to come back, the current task is too important to leave. ”

"It took another month for him to come back to see your grandfather, and the brothers and sisters were angry and cold to him. At that time, a cousin came to visit the patient and scolded him for being unfilial, and your uncle was scolded and didn't dare to say anything. When you were young, you suddenly asked her, 'Auntie, did your cousin go to work in the United States?' ’”

"Your aunt likes to say this the most, and immediately said yes, so that you can study hard and study abroad and work in the future. As a result, you said, 'That cousin has been working in the United States for several years and has not come back, why don't you say that he is not filial?' ’”

When Ji's mother said this, she couldn't help laughing.

Ji Fan also said goodbye, he still remembered this incident, and he also remembered the awkward atmosphere after he asked this sentence.

But after that, everyone's attitude towards my uncle returned to normal.

Sometimes relatives don't understand each other, but it's inevitable to be harsh when they are close.

Ji's mother said: "At that time, I thought, yes, I can't accompany my parents, and everyone who goes abroad is envious and praised, like your uncle, who stays outside all the year round to dedicate, but is said to be unfilial and unworthy...... What is the rationale for this? We are a group of adults, and you are not as clear as a ten-year-old child. ”

Ji Fan joked: "I've been smart since I was a child. ”

Ji's mother patted him.

"I understand a lot of truths, but when it's my turn, I still have to be confused. One of the things my mom regrets the most is that the college entrance examination will force you to apply for finance. At that time, I thought, my son has such a high grade, of course, he has to apply for the most popular major with the highest score, otherwise the high score will not be wasted? It wasn't until later that I found out that you were secretly studying two majors, and I regretted how much hard work you had worked in vain. ”

"In the past few years, as I get older, I have become more wearable, what is said in the TV series, the most important thing for people is to be happy. If you like money, you will make money, and if you feel that money is not so important, you will do what you are interested in. I know you can't bear to do this yourself, and you want to leave your job, is it because I was sick that time? ”

She stopped Ji Fan's answer, "You, you must be thinking too much." I don't know how you figured it out and went back, but Mom wants to tell you, don't think about what to do with us, you just take care of yourself, we're not old. If you still think you're not doing a good job, think about your father's colleague's son. ”

Ji Fan hesitated for a moment: "...... You say the one who lost hundreds of thousands? ”

Mother Ji actually nodded: "Yes." ”

Ji Fan: "Mom......"

Mother Ji looked at his helpless expression and laughed again: "I was wrong, this is extreme." But you know what Mom means, you're good enough, others are already envious of me and your dad, don't keep thinking that you have to do your best. ”

It seems that not long ago, someone said something similar to him.

Ji Fan said "um" for a long time.

After greeting two acquaintances passing by for a while, Ji's mother suddenly said, "You also have to think about your own life's events, I am always asked why my son is not married yet." ”

Ji Fan was stunned for a moment, in the event of marriage, his parents have always rarely urged him.

"Don't be too demanding, don't ask for beauty, it's best to take care of people." Ji's mother is a typical mother-in-law standard.

Ji Fan walked silently, and Ji's mother felt that he probably hadn't thought about this issue yet, so she didn't say any more. Unexpectedly, when she arrived at the door, Ji Fan suddenly called her: "Mom." ”

Ji's mother looked at him.

Ji Fan paused and said, "I probably like the other way around." ”

She's beautiful, but she's not supposed to take care of people......

Ji Fan is somewhat of a desert and escaped.
