Coming out of the hospital, sending the mother and son of the blue water butterfly home, Zhou Jing didn't eat lunch, so he put on sunglasses, drove the car, and hurriedly returned, speaking of which, he hadn't returned to Qingyang for a long time, even if his mother Yuan Xiuhua didn't call to urge, he was homesick and wanted to go back to see, not to mention, he and Li Jiani were not at home, and the ancestral house must have been cleaned by no one, so he was very worried.

On the way back, the weather is excellent, the autumn is crisp, the scenery is pleasant, there is a lot of traffic on the highway, endlessly, relatively speaking, Zhou Jing's Santana looks a little shabby, before, Shen Jiayu had proposed to give him a new car, but because there were many things, it was not replaced in time, not to mention, Zhou Jing felt that working in the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, the means of transportation were still simpler and better, and there was no need to swagger.

After driving on the road for more than three hours, he finally arrived at Qingyang, got off the highway, looked at the old appearance of the city in the distance, couldn't help but sigh, and his mood became extraordinarily relaxed, he drove the car, passed through a familiar street, rushed back to the tube building, parked the car, took a few gifts, Teng Teng went upstairs, rushed to the fifth floor, looked at the Fu word and smiled, stretched out his hand and knocked on the door.

A few minutes later, the door was gently pushed open, and an innocent and lovely smiling face came out, Xiao Qi was wearing a white shirt, a cyan skirt, a playful braid on her head, and blue slippers under her feet, appearing at the door, compared with before, she had grown a lot taller, and had reached Zhou Jing's waist, she stood at the door, smiled slightly, blinked her eyes, and said happily: "Brother Jing, are you back?" ”

"yes!" Zhou Jing smiled slightly, entered the house with the gift box, changed his slippers, took the door with him, walked to the sofa with Xiao Qi in his arms and sat down, put the gift box away, pinched the pretty face carved in pink, and said with concern: "Have you finished your homework?" ”

Xiao Qi shook his head with a smile, spit out his cute little tongue, and said shyly: "Not yet, I finished my math homework yesterday, and there are still two diaries that I haven't written, and the title I want to write is 'Brother is back', you haven't arrived home, how can I use my pen?" ”

When Zhou Jing heard this, his heart was overjoyed, he smiled, pinched her delicate and jade-like face, nodded and said, "Xiao Qi, my brother is back and brought a gift, do you know what it is?" ”

"I don't know!" It seems that they have been separated for a long time, and they seem very rusty, Xiao Qi's expression seems very restrained, not as lively as at the beginning, but the expectation and desire contained in those eyes are still unconcealable.

Zhou Jing smiled slightly, opened the gift box, first took out a delicate and beautiful bracelet from it, put it on her wrist with her own hands, took out a pink printed skirt, handed it over, and said softly: "Put it on and take a look, do you like it?" ”

Xiao Qi was already very happy when he saw the bracelet, and when he saw the beautiful flower skirt again, he was even more dazzled and smiling, and when he was excited, he poked his head over, kissed him on the face, and said happily: "I like it, brother, thank you so much!" ”

Zhou Jing nodded with a smile, and said with a smile: "Take it and change it!" ”

Xiao Qi hummed, hugged the skirt into the back room, Zhou Jing walked around the room, did not find the two elders, he was a little puzzled, returned to the living room, turned on the TV, flipped through the TV program, but, always felt something strange, but I couldn't feel it, for a while, I saw the clue, it turned out that on the wall, there were two more calligraphy works, he walked over, looked intently, but saw a pair of beautiful brushwork on it, written with a few brush words: "Faith can create miracles, dreams are destined to create the future." ”

Zhou Jing was easy to recognize, the words were from his mother's handwriting, although weak, but full of indescribable tenacity.

And the handwriting next to it, is very sloppy, masculine and domineering, after looking at it for a long time, it was recognized that it was a traditional 'dragon' word, he saw it, and couldn't help laughing, although this word is not elegantly written, but the power contained in the font is unique to his father.

Soon, Xiao Qi ran out of the room, pulled the hem of his skirt with both hands, and chuckled: "Brother, take a look, is this skirt good-looking?" ”

Zhou Jing glanced twice, then nodded and said: "Good-looking, of course good-looking, Xiao Qi is about to become a big girl!" ”

Xiao Qi giggled, ran to the mirror, looked left and right, and said happily: "Brother, this dress is so beautiful, and so is the bracelet!" ”

Zhou Jing snorted, turned down the volume of the TV, and said softly: "Xiao Qi, why aren't your parents at home?" ”

Xiao Qi sighed and said with a smile: "That's the case, some students came crying, as if there was a quarrel at home, and my mother and father went together, saying that they were going to help, and they might have to come back later." ”

Zhou Jingjing nodded, put down the remote control, looked at Xiao Qi, who was smiling, smiled slightly, hooked his finger and said, "Xiao Qi, come here!" ”

Xiao Qi snorted, walked over timidly, and said uneasily: "What are you doing!" ”

Zhou Jing sighed, stretched out his hands and said, "Why don't you do it, if you want to be like before, you would have run into my brother's arms and be coquettish!" ”

Xiao Qi stretched out his hand and scratched his head, and said a little embarrassedly: "I want to think about it now, that's it, I don't dare!" ”

"If you don't dare, let my brother say it himself!" Zhou Jing took her arm, held the little guy in his arms, turned his head and kissed it, and said with a smile: "During this time, how is your academic performance?" ”

Xiao Qiba clicked his mouth and said happily: "It's okay, I was the first in the exam last time!" ”

Zhou Jing nodded and smiled: "What about this time?" ”

Xiao Qi grinned, stuck out his tongue, and said with confidence: "The results haven't come out yet, but it shouldn't be bad, my mother said, if she takes the second exam, she will be very faceless, I think, it's impossible for anyone in the class to surpass me!" ”

Zhou Jing sighed lightly, touched the little guy's head, nodded and said: "Yes, the results are so stable, they should be rewarded, say, what gift do you like, next time my brother comes back, bring it to you." ”

Xiao Qi gradually let go, sat on Zhou Jing's knees, swayed his legs leisurely, and pouted: "It's nothing, I liked to eat some potato chips a few days ago, and now I want to buy a bicycle, I want a very small, yellow, very beautiful kind!" ”

Zhou Jing smiled slightly, nodded and said, "No problem, I'll bring it to you when my brother comes home next time." ”

"Thank you, brother!" Xiao Qi was very happy, shaking his head, innocent and cute, very likable.

Looking at the little guy's naughtiness, as if she had found the feeling when she was a child, Zhou Jing took out the oranges from the fruit bowl, opened a petal casually, put it in her little mouth, and said with a smile: "It's just that there must be a condition, the next exam, the results must be maintained, and continue to take the first place!" ”

"No problem, just play normally!" Xiao Qi grinned, jumped off his knees, ran to the TV cabinet happily, touched the microphone, called Yuan Xiuhua, and said with a smile: "Mom, my brother is home, when will you come home?" ”

Yuan Xiuhua was persuading the parents of the students at this moment, and he was not free for a while, so he nodded and said: "Okay, I know, Xiao Qi, remember to be well-behaved at home, and when this side is done, later, I will go back with your father!" ”

"Okay!" Xiao Qi put down the phone, pulled the hem of her skirt, walked to the mirror, took a few photos, and then went back to the bedroom.

Zhou Jing was lying on the sofa, cocking Erlang's legs, watching the TV show, but he was thinking about Qin Xiaoqian's house, speaking of which, I haven't seen her and Jingjing for a long time, and I am very worried about it, but after seeing Xiao Qi's current appearance, I also know that Jingjing's side will most likely be rusty, and when the child is always tired of being together, it will seem affectionate, and if it is separated for a long time, it will become inferior.

Half an hour later, the door opened, Zhou Xueming entered the house, saw Zhou Jing, he was also very happy, took off his coat, and said with a smile: "You kid, you are really wild enough, you don't run home for a few months, and if you don't come back, I'm afraid you won't even be able to find your way home!" ”

Zhou Jing smiled, shook his head and said, "How can it, some time ago, I always went home, but I couldn't see your shadow!" ”

Zhou Xueming sighed, sat next to him, and said with a smile: "No way, do you want to love the factory like home, Lao Niu has gone up, and the pressure on me and Director Hengsheng is very great, such a big factory, there are so many things, if you really want to hold it up, how can it be so easy!" ”

Zhou Jing smiled, got up to make tea for his father, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Mom, when I didn't see it, I always shouted and thought about it, why didn't I say anything when I met?" ”

Yuan Xiuhua pursed her lips and said with a smile: "It's not for the parents of the students to make trouble, it's a good day, but it's always quarreling, it's okay, after some persuasion, I finally persuaded it!" ”

Zhou Jing smiled, brought the teacup, put it on the coffee table, smiled and inquired about the situation of the agricultural machinery factory, and also supported him on the side, giving him advice and guidance.

Ten minutes later, Yuan Xiuhua went to the kitchen to clean up the food, while Zhou Xueming took Go and played against Zhou Jing, Zhou Jing felt very curious, so he wondered: "Dad, I used to play chess, why did I suddenly change it?" ”

Zhou Xueming was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "No, they say that I am a big boss and lack cultural quality, now I am studying, I feel a little late, so I will play Go and cultivate my sentiments!" ”

Zhou Jing laughed, shook his head and said, "That's good, but I'm not good at it, and your chess skills are probably not too good." ”

Zhou Xueming didn't think so, and said with a smile: "There are no such sayings, it's just doing eyesight, robbery or something, playing casually, when it's okay, put the chessboard in the office, people will look at it, ah, they can also play Go, they must be cultural people, it feels good!" ”

Zhou Jing shook his head with a smile, held the black chess in his hand, and sighed: "Dad, you are doing this too much, in the eyes of those masters in the agricultural machinery factory, you are a person who does practical things, not an intellectual, everyone knows the details, and you can't hide it at all, what are you doing with those shows!" ”

Zhou Xueming shook his head with a smile, and said disappreciatively: "You, you can't help but look down on my dad too much, I have been a workshop worker in the past two years, and now those books in the office are full of bookcases, but I am too busy with work and have no time to read!" ”

Zhou Jing smiled slightly, didn't argue with him, the two played against each other, and when they went down to the middle, they did feel that their father Zhou Xueming's chess skills were quite high, and they were still above him, but he was young and vigorous, and his thinking was quick, and the two were also on par, and it was difficult to distinguish between them.

Go is not like chess, crackling and fighting, and you can quickly distinguish the winner and loser, but it is very painstaking, and it can also cultivate calmness, Zhou Jing was originally just a whim, accompanying his father to relieve his worries and relieve boredom, but slowly, he also vaguely felt the fun in it.

"Success or failure is determined between black and white, and there is a fortune in the chessboard!" Between this chessboard, there seem to be countless mysteries, and every move can cause some changes in the situation, he doesn't care about winning or losing, but that mysterious feeling makes him extremely useful, and he quickly indulges in it.
