Chapter 3: He's a Phoenix

"But..."

Ye Xiaoqing didn't give her a chance to speak, the so-called striking while the iron was hot, grabbed the words, "Don't be, what is the difference between a person who has given up his dream and a salted fish." As for tuition, don't worry," he patted his chest, "I have a way." Isn't it very popular to be a tutor now, you are talented in painting, and you can't afford to go to Huandi, and Huali Academy of Fine Arts is the same, because you are the best no matter where you are. Those rich people in the upstream love to cultivate children's hobbies, and they can earn a lot of money as a tutor. The summer vacation is still very long, and I can save a lot of money by working as a tutor for two months. ”

Qiao Yunxia straightened her face and pinched it, "Okay, okay, your tirade convinced me." ”

It must be said that Xiaoqing can't be said, so he can only put it on hold, and if he can really find a tutor as she said, he will make a decision.

After all, she is not forced to give up her dream.

Ye Xiaoqing immediately smiled, reached out and pinched back Qiao Yunxia, pinching her face like a bulging little frog, "This is good, listening to persuasion is a good child." ”

Seeing that Ye Xiaoqing persuaded his sister, Qiao Baiyu breathed a sigh of relief, for the sake of her dreams, her sister retreated to the second, gave up Emperor Huan, and applied to the Huali Academy of Fine Arts, he categorically did not allow her to have the idea of dropping out of school.

Ye Xiaoqing's eyes suddenly flashed, "Tomorrow weekend, I have a holiday, why don't you go to play for a day and call Qin Zixi?" The deceased is gone, and the living can't always be in the pain and can't get out, go out for a walk, shout at the mountains, rivers and seas, maybe their brothers and sisters can feel better, "If there is no impermanence, the night will never wait for the day, the depressed mood will never look forward to the sunshine, the sick body will never recover its health, and the parted people will never be able to get together again, such a world is terrible to think about, isn't it?" What we have to do is to be strong, follow the eternal trajectory, and be determined to the end", she clenched a pair of fists, looked resolutely ahead, and made a cheering gesture.

Ye Xiaoqing's firmness made Qiao Yunxia's eyes hot, this warm-hearted and energetic girl can always give her full of emotion and positive energy.

Qiao Baiyu thought that it would be good to let his sister go out to see the beautiful scenery and forget about her sadness for a while, so she nodded and agreed to Ye Xiaoqing.

"Then I'll call Qin Zixi now." Ye Xiaoqing couldn't wait to take out his mobile phone and broadcast the number. But I called it twice, but the other end still didn't answer, "It's strange, it's only nine o'clock, can I just sleep." After a busy sound, he hung up automatically, and Ye Xiaoqing looked at the phone screen and muttered.

When Qin Zixi heard the mobile phone ringing, he had just entered the house.

In the past two days, I was worried about Qiao Yunxia's health, and I was afraid that my mother would see and be injured when I went home, so I have been at Qiao Yunxia's house.

I didn't go home for two days, and my parents didn't answer a lot of phone calls, but they only replied with a message saying that they went out to sketch with their male classmates, and they had to stay out for two days.

At this moment, I became a little hesitant to open the door, for fear that my parents would be waiting for me to come back in the living room with a black face, and I would be questioned.

Before the hand pressed the connect button, the phone was snatched away, "You still know to come back." When he turned around, he saw his father Qin Mingshi with a black face.

Qin Mingshi directly turned off his mobile phone.

The scene in the living room was the same as he guessed, if not more exaggerated, in addition to his parents, there were some uniformed policemen.

"Don't scare the child, he's grown up, it's summer vacation, it's nothing to go out to play for two days, it's just such a son, it's too late to hurt, what are you yelling at?" Lin Su pulled away her black-faced husband and stood in the middle to protect her son, "Son, you go to sketch, why don't you listen to the phone?" You see you've lost weight. Lin Su pulled his son with distressed eyes, holding his son's face for a while. When he saw the scabbed wound on his son's chin, he jumped up, "What's going on?" How did it hurt? Did someone bully you? The sound was sharper than the chirping of cicadas, and it stabbed Qin Zixi's ears.

"No, it rained too much that day, I couldn't see the road clearly, and I fell while riding." Qin Zixi lied.

I didn't dare to tell my mother the truth, lest my mother ask questions.

"Where else did you fall? Go to the hospital for a X-ray examination. Looking at his son's jaw injury, Lin Su's tears were about to fall.

Pull him to the door.

"Mom, it's really fine, don't worry."

"Spoil it, you spoil it." Qin Mingshi was angry, sat back on the sofa, and glared at his son angrily, "Standing with a big person, what can happen to you?" Did you steal the 100,000 yuan in the safe, and what did you do with it? ”

"How do you talk? How can his own son be said to be stealing his own money when he takes his own money. Lin Su scolded her husband again, "Even if his son took it, the 100,000 yuan would have been a reward for him to be admitted to Emperor Huan, and how to spend it is his business." ”

Qin Mingshi sighed heavily and stopped talking, he was a man who listened to his wife, and his husband and wife had been married for more than 20 years, and he had never said a word to his wife.

The son has always been very good, and he knows that his wife's education is inseparable, so when his wife talks about him, he listens silently.

It's just that he can't accept how this always well-behaved son could take away so much money from the family.

Just take it, so I discussed it with my parents, so quietly, if I hadn't called the police to call up the surveillance, I really thought that there was a thief at home.

"Now that the matter is clear, the case is dropped, let's go." The policeman took the document, pressed his fingerprint on Qin Mingshi, and left with the document.

"Slow down, I'm really bothering you." Qin Mingshi sent the police out, closed the door and sat back on the sofa, glancing at his wife from the corner of his eye.

Lin Su pulled his son to sit down on the sofa and looked at his son seriously, "Tell Mom, where did all the money go, and there is nothing left?" ”

looked at his son's flat trouser pocket, it seemed that there was really nothing left, 100,000 yuan, not much, but it was also a big stack.

The child's living expenses are never short, and she can spend 100,000 yuan in two days, she doesn't believe it, and her son is different from those rich second generations, and he has never been extravagant.

"Dad, Mom, the 100,000 yuan is a reward for me to be admitted to college, as for where the money went, I forgot it, so don't ask again."

He understands his mother's character very well, and he has never been stingy with his family, especially for his son, who gives him the best and most expensive everything. But it is not a dime to the outside world, and it usually takes half a day to bargain for a vegetable on the street.

So you can't tell your mom where the money is going.

To Qiao Yunxia, they said that with the consent of their parents, they were actually lying, and they were afraid that they would tell the truth, so their brothers and sisters refused to accept it.

At the beginning, his parents asked him what reward he wanted to be admitted to Emperor Huan, and he didn't want to think about it, so he said that he wanted a semester's tuition as a reward, because he and Qiao Yunxia agreed to be admitted to Emperor Huandi together, he knew that Qiao Yunxia's family conditions were not good, and the 100,000 yuan was the tuition fee prepared for her.

"That's what I said, but mom is afraid that you've been deceived." Lin Su saw through his son's lying at a glance, and he was even more anxious, "Is it for your classmate, what is Qiao Xia?" "My son doesn't have any good friends, and there are only two or three who come and go, especially the girl surnamed Jo.

"Qiao Yunxia," Qin Mingshi took over.

He has an image of that child, and every day when he picks up his son from school, he can see his son walking with her, for which he also said that his son has been in love several times and is not allowed to fall in love.

Qin Zixi stood up suddenly, looking a little cramped, and hurriedly went up to the second floor to return to his room, and before he closed the door, his mother had already slipped in, "Mom, don't ask about the money again, I haven't been deceived." I'm hungry and want to eat beef noodles with tomatoes. ”

"You explain where the money went, and mom will cook it for you." Lin Su raised his hand and followed his son's back, and coaxed him in a good voice.

"Then I won't eat, I'm sleepy." I finally pushed my mother out and closed the door, and the thrill finally passed.

Lin Su looked at the closed door and shook his head, already having an answer in his heart.

The girl named Qiao Yunxia's family is so poor, her son must have given her the money, this stupid child, and said that she was not deceived.

I didn't come back for two days, I must have been at that girl's house, and when I thought of this, I felt anxious.

Now that the Qin family's family conditions are among the best, how can they let their son continue to play with the children of those poor and sour families, which lowers his status.

Although his family used to live downstream, through the efforts of his husband and his husband, he earned money to open a factory and bought a villa upstream.

She desperately wanted to get rid of the past and squeeze into the upper reaches of society, but the poor girl pestered her son.

If it weren't for the fear that my son would transfer to another school and miss his studies, he would never let his son graduate from high school in a place downstream.

When I came downstairs, I saw my husband sitting on the sofa smoking a cigarette without caring about himself, and he was angry, so he grabbed the cigarette and poked it out, raised his hand and pointed at his husband's head, "It's all you, you don't care about the child when you are born, and you give me everything to fall in love." Before the situation is serious, I need to find a time to meet the girl, get the money back, and let her cut ties with her son. Why should the old lady give away her hard-earned money in vain. Poor and sour families, the children who have been educated are so corrupt, and they have learned to be abducted and deceived! ”

Qin Mingshi disagreed, he was eighteen years old, how could he be considered early love, and his wife was too worried, "Isn't it all what you said, I have no culture, don't interfere in my son's education, so as not to teach the child badly, don't I bury my head in making money?" He muttered as he walked upstairs, and then quickened his pace, afraid that his wife would catch up and twist his ears.

"What do you say? If you dare to contradict me, your father and son will be angry with me..."

The sound of the door closing shut shut Lin Su's voice out of the door, and Qin Mingshi smoothed his mouth and breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Xiaoqing poked his finger at the phone screen with a huff, "It's strange, I didn't answer after calling seven or eight times, and I turned off my phone, forget it, I'll call again tomorrow morning." Frustrated, he put away his phone and shrugged his shoulders and looked at his brother and sister, "I have to go back too, I am tired of wearing high heels every day." ”

Ye Xiaoqing found a job in the front desk wiring in the factory where her parents worked. She is on the day shift, and her parents choose the most tiring night shift in order to get more wages, and they still do the assembly line, because the night shift is subsidized.

Therefore, a family of three rarely has time to get together.

This night, Qiao Yunxia slept very deeply, but her mother did not come to see her in her dream, and after waking up, she was lost.

The sky is so blue that there is not a trace of clouds, the treetops know the sound one after another, the Huali River is still floating with dead fish and shrimp, and there are workers salvaging garbage in the black water.

Qin Zixi leaned against the willow tree on the bank, with a bicycle parked beside him, he looked at the black and sparkling river, and the white shirt he was wearing made his face even more white and sunny, and his face became more handsome under the sun.

When he woke up, he took his mobile phone and turned it on, saw Ye Xiaoqing's missed call, and called back, Ye Xiaoqing said that he had asked Qiao Yunxia's brothers and sisters to go out to play together today, and asked him to come quickly.

He immediately rolled over and got out of bed and left the house before his parents got up.

He had been waiting quietly outside for half an hour.

Qiao Yunxia woke up, habitually walked to the window, opened the curtains and let the sun shine in.

She saw the young man on the bank of the river, he looked like a beautiful jade, and the sun did not stir up a little dust.

When they were studying, Ye Xiaoqing and the three of them were all known to the whole school, going to class together, going to the canteen together, going out to sketch together, and leaving school together....

Time is so fast, and in the blink of an eye, we will go our separate ways.

obviously made an appointment to go to college and want to be together, but in the end, she was the only one left.

She knew that she was never from the same world as him, and she had expected all of this since his family moved downstream.

Lowered the curtains, put the admission letter of Huali Academy of Fine Arts on the table into the cabinet and locked it, looked at the locked cabinet in a daze, and said silently in the bottom of his heart, "Zixi, I'm sorry, I missed the appointment." ’

When filling in the volunteer, Qin Zixi agreed with her to go to Emperor Huan together, study in college together, be in the same class together, and continue to be her tablemate.

also said that if she didn't take the Huandi exam, then he would stay with her in the Huali Academy of Fine Arts.

She didn't want to keep him in her own lowly world, so she nodded and agreed to his agreement at that time, and when she volunteered, she secretly crossed out Emperor Huan and wrote Huali.

In her opinion, Qin Zixi is so good, she shouldn't be because of her, and she shouldn't go to Emperor Huan.

He is a phoenix, and he wants to soar into the sky. And he is just a small fish in the river, only qualified to look up at the sky, and even going ashore to see the scenery is also a luxury.
