In Dalian, Qian Xiaoying has also graduated with honors, received her diploma and completed the relevant procedures, and moved out of the school's student dormitory to live in a small two-bedroom apartment in Zhongshan District. The apartment was shared with a provincial girl in her class, and both decided to stay and work in this beautiful seaside city.

It's also difficult to find a job, but Qian Xiaoying is not in a hurry to join the company, now she has a very right idea, the concept of finding a job is like buying clothes and cosmetics, don't buy big goods, as long as it's high-quality.

That night, Qian Xiaoying was invited to pay Zhang Desheng's family banquet, and before leaving, she deliberately dressed up, first put on a delicate light makeup, and then put on a favorite set of clothes from the few clothes in the closet. Compared with four years ago, Qian Xiaoying's figure is a lot plumper, and her makeup skills and clothing taste have also improved a lot.

After coming to Zhang's house, Sister-in-law He, who had already been ready to stop, began to serve the food, and soon filled the big table, Dalong affectionately took Teacher Xiaoqian's hand into the table, and Zhang Desheng personally poured red wine for her, Qian Xiaoying thanked her repeatedly. In the past four years, she has always been grateful to Zhang Desheng, and the relationship with Dalong for more than 1,000 days has also made the two have a deep affection, and even Sister-in-law He is close to her like family.

Zhang Desheng picked up his wine glass and said happily to Qian Xiaoying: "Teacher Xiaoqian, it turns out that you are a rare good teacher!" Today is the family banquet that Dalong and I are sharing to thank you for your tireless cultivation of Dalong in the past four years! Come, as a father who wants his son to become a Chan, I will toast you first! ”

"Mr. Zhang, don't say that!" Qian Xiaoying picked up the cup and said sincerely: "If you want to say thank you, I also thank you!" It is you who trust me and am willing to hand over the dragon to me, so that I have a stable job, and I can successfully complete my university studies. ”

"Teacher Xiao Qian, you don't have to be polite to me," Zhang Desheng looked at Qian Xiaoying with appreciative eyes, "Those are what you deserve, Dalong's results have said everything!" ”

"Teacher Xiaoqian, do you guess what I got in this school year's exam?" Da Long, who was sitting next to Qian Xiaoying, suddenly interjected.

“…… I can't guess," Qian Xiaoying shook her head, "Da Long, you tell the teacher." ”

"First in the class! 3rd in the school year! Dalong proudly announced.

"Really!" Qian Xiaoying's eyes widened, "Oops, big dragon!" You're amazing! The teacher was so happy! What a celebration it is! Here, let's cheers! ”

Qian Xiaoying took the wine glass and touched Dalong first, and then clinked glasses with Zhang Desheng, and the three of them were very happy.

"Teacher Xiaoqian," Zhang Desheng put down his wine glass and said in a sincere tone: "To be honest, when I invited you to come, I really didn't expect you to bring Dalong well, but I really didn't expect that since you came, Dalong's grades have steadily improved, one step at a time, from the bottom of the class to the top of the whole school year, the change is great, not only surprised, even Dalong's homeroom teacher is particularly surprised, in Dalong's school, this has become a beautiful talk, I, as a parent, have a very bright face." ”

"Actually......" Qian Xiaoying looked at Da Long, a little embarrassed, "I didn't do anything, it's Da Long who is smart, he can learn his homework as soon as he learns, and he can solve the problem at a glance." ”

"Teacher Xiaoqian, don't be modest, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't like to study at all, it was you who stimulated my interest in learning, otherwise I wouldn't know how cool it would be to be a scholar!"

Da Long's eyebrows fluttered as he spoke, while Qian Xiaoying smiled brightly, "Ha! It's true! Students who study well have faces wherever they go! ”

"Dalong is right, interest in learning is the most important!" Zhang Desheng picked up chopsticks and greeted Qian Xiaoying as he spoke, "Don't patronize and talk, come to Teacher Xiaoqian, let's talk while eating." ”

"Hmm......" Qian Xiaoying looked at Zhang Desheng, "Mr. Zhang, before eating, I have a reluctant ...... to invite"

"Teacher Xiaoqian, don't be so polite, you say."

"Is it okay to let Sister-in-law He eat with us today?" Qian Xiaoying said.

"Yes!" Zhang Desheng shouted in the direction of the kitchen, "Sister-in-law He." ”

"Mr. Zhang." Sister-in-law He walked over.

"Sister-in-law He," Zhang Desheng pointed at Qian Xiaoying, "Teacher Xiaoqian invited you to have dinner with everyone today, you can come and eat together." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Qian, no need, I'm used to eating in the kitchen." Sister-in-law He glanced at Qian Xiaoying gratefully,

"Sister-in-law He, come and eat with us," Qian Xiaoying stood up, looked at Sister-in-law He and said sincerely: "You have been taking good care of me in the past few years, every time you know that I haven't eaten, you will get me something to eat, I want to take this opportunity today to express my gratitude to you!" ”

"Oops......" Sister-in-law He was a little embarrassed, "That's, that's what I should do......"

"Come on, sister-in-law He, let's go together." Zhang Desheng said.

"Yes, Sister-in-law He, let's eat together." Dalong also said.

"Okay, okay." Sister-in-law He was obviously moved, she sat down, Qian Xiaoying poured a glass of wine and put it in front of Sister-in-law He, everyone served each other's dishes, chatted while eating, and had a good time.

After eating and drinking for a while, perhaps because of drinking, Sister-in-law He, who has always talked little, looked at the Zhang family father and son and then looked at Qian Xiaoying, and said with emotion: "I think Teacher Xiao Qian is really the lucky star of this family, since he came, not only Dalong has learned his homework well, but even Mr. Zhang has more time at home at night, and everyone is fat!" This home also has the appearance of a home......"

Zhang Desheng glanced at Qian Xiaoying when he heard this, and seemed a little embarrassed, while Dalong rolled his eyes and smiled very connotatively.

"Mr. Zhang, Dalong, in fact, I have something I want to tell you today......" At this time, Qian Xiaoying put down her chopsticks and sat up straight, her expression looking serious and dignified.

"What's the matter? Dalong quipped, "You're not going to ask me to memorize the entire English book, are you?" ”

"Teacher Xiaoqian, if there is anything you say, if I can do it, I will definitely do it for you!" Zhang Desheng said.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang! To be honest, I've already gotten enough from you and Dalong, why am I too embarrassed to ask for anything else? I mean, I'm going to quit this job......"

"Teacher Qian, are you leaving? You don't want to care about me anymore? Without waiting for Qian Xiaoying's words to finish, Dalong's face had sunk, Zhang Desheng was also silent, and Sister-in-law He looked at the three of them, stood up silently and left.

"Da Long, it's not that I don't want to care about you," Qian Xiaoying turned her head to explain to Da Long, "It's just that I have graduated from college now, and it's time to find a formal job to work, and I will inevitably be busy and overtime after work, I'm afraid I won't have time to tutor you......"

Dalong didn't look at her with a calm face, and after a few seconds, he suddenly stood up without a sound and went upstairs.

"Great Dragon!" Qian Xiaoying felt very uncomfortable when she saw Da Long like this, she stood up and shouted at Da Long's back, but Da Long ignored it and disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

"Teacher Xiaoqian, let him go," Zhang Desheng looked a little lost, "If you suddenly say that you will resign, he must feel uncomfortable, so let him be quiet." ”

Qian Xiaoying looked at him and was silent.

That night, Zhang Desheng drove Qian Xiaoying back to the apartment, and before Qian Xiaoying got out of the car, he handed her a bulging brown paper envelope and said: "Teacher Xiaoqian, there are 10,000 yuan here, it is a little bit of my heart, thank you for your cultivation of Dalong, please accept it." ”

"No, no, Mr. Zhang, I can't ask for it," Qian Xiaoying refused, "The salary you gave me is already very high, how can I take this money again?" Besides, I've quit now. ”

"Teacher Xiaoqian, this has nothing to do with whether you resign or not, do you know how much it means to me that you have taught Dalong well? I can't thank you too much, this is a reward for you, and it is also a sincere thank you of mine, please accept it, okay? ”

"This ...... It's not appropriate, right? Qian Xiaoying hesitated.

"It's not appropriate if you don't take it, please take it!" Zhang Desheng insisted.

"That'...... Thank you, Mr. Zhang! Qian Xiaoying took the envelope.

"Teacher Xiao Qian," Zhang Desheng looked at Qian Xiaoying, and said sincerely: "From now on, as long as you are still in this city, as long as you can use my place, just call me, okay?" I'm a lot older than you, but I'm willing to be your friend, let's be good friends, okay? ”

"Of course, it's my pleasure!" Qian Xiaoying nodded vigorously. The two looked at each other and smiled.
