Ten years later.

In the teahouse, Josie leaned back in her chair, sipped her tea, and looked out the glass window.

The street outside the teahouse is full of traffic.

"Mom!"

"Mom!"

Two children, a man and a woman, ran over.

The boy is Qin Lexin, although he is only fourteen years old, he has already grown tall, and the girl is much shorter, only to the boy's shoulder, it is the nine-year-old Qin Shunxin.

In response to the rumor that her son is like a mother and a girl like a father, Qin Lexin's facial features are like Josie, and Qin Shunxin's facial features are very similar to Qin Jiashu.

The two of them left school one after the other, and Qin Lexin, who was the elder brother, went to school to pick up his sister and went home together.

The manager chased after him, afraid that the two children would be reckless and bumpy, and when he saw that the two of them had arrived safely in front of Josie, he bowed slightly and left to get busy.

Josie put down the teacup and looked at Qin Lexin: "Why don't you take your sister home?" ”

"Mom, Dad is coming back tonight, right?" When it came to Qin Jiashu, Qin Lexin's eyes were shining.

Josie hummed.

After the cultivation of Chinese medicinal materials became an industry, Qin Jiashu's company became bigger and bigger, and now it is not only sold throughout the country, but also sold at home and abroad.

Therefore, Qin Jiashu is getting busier and busier, and there are more and more days when he is not at home.

The children were looking forward to him coming home.

Qin Shun's heart jumped: "I don't know what gifts Dad will bring me when he comes back this time." ”

The corners of Josie's mouth hooked.

Bringing gifts to the children was her advice to Qin Jiashu, he was too busy to take care of the children, this was no way, but he couldn't let the children feel that he had forgotten them.

In fact, children don't want much, just know that mom and dad love them.

She got up, touched Qin Shunxin's hairy head, and said with a smile: "No matter what you bring, it is your father's heart, you should cherish it." ”

Not only should the father remember to be concerned about the child, but also tell the child to be grateful to the father.

Sure enough, after listening to her, Qin Lexin hugged his arms and made a little adult and said, "Wait for me for a few more years, and I can share the burden for my father." ”

The curvature of the corners of Josie's mouth was even greater, and instead of dampening the child's enthusiasm, he encouraged: "Okay, you study hard and strive to take over your father's company as soon as possible, so that he can rest." ”

"No problem!" Qin Lexin is very confident.

Although he is still in junior high school, he has participated in several national knowledge competitions and won good rankings.

In his opinion, running a company is not a huge difficulty.

Just work hard.

Compared with her brother, Qin Shunxin didn't have such a big ambition, she hugged Josie's arm, and bent her eyes coquettishly: "You take over Dad's company, and I will inherit my mother's teahouse." ”

She prefers the days when she drinks tea comfortably in a teahouse.

Josie saw her daughter's careful thoughts, and responded with a doting smile: "Okay, Mom's teahouse is left for you." ”

She and Qin Jiashu have earned enough money to spend for several lifetimes, as long as her children don't go down the wrong path and don't do evil things, they can live as happy as they want.

Glancing at the time, Josie took Qin Shunxin's hand and prepared to go home.

Today, not only Qin Jiashu is back, but Qiao Nan has also returned from studying abroad.

Ten years ago, Qiao Nan was admitted to the country's top universities with the top results in the province, and later graduated from graduate school and went abroad for further study.

Once gone, it's three years.

After not seeing each other for such a long time, the whole family misses him very much.

Qin Shunxin thought that he was already a man, so he didn't let Josie lead him, and walked in front with big strides, opening the way with great dignity.

Josie smiled.

In recent years, real estate development has been rapid, and many high-rise buildings and villas have been built in the city.

When I arrived at the door of the villa's courtyard, I could already see that my family had come.

Qiao's father and Qiao's mother, Qiaodong's family and Qiaonan's family.

A barbecue grill has been set up in the yard, and the tables under the umbrellas are filled with meat and fruit drinks.

"Hasn't Kaki come back yet?" Josie walked in and asked.

"He said that he stopped by and went to pick up Xiaobei." Qiao's mother pulled Josie to sit under the parasol and poured her another cup of sour plum juice to relieve the heat.

Josie also let Qiao's mother rest: "Mom, there are a lot of people today, so you can be busy, you just wait to eat." ”

Qiao's mother smiled from ear to ear: "Girl, I know that you feel sorry for your mother, but you also know that your mother is an idle person, if you don't let me do it, I will die in a hurry!" ”

Qiao's father walked over, he was wearing a dark blue hat and sunglasses, his hands were behind his back, and he commented leisurely: "I won't be happy." ”

"Hmph, you will be blessed, carry a broken fishing rod and run out every day, be a fisherman, and not do your job." Qiao's mother rolled her eyes at Qiao's father.

Qiao's father took off his glasses and retorted with his chest straight: "I'm so old, what kind of business do I have to do, my daughter has said, let me live for a long time!" ”

With his daughter's support at this time, he is not afraid.

Qiao's mother was not angry, and pushed Qiao's father into the sun: "Okay, you take care of your life, you go to the side to be raised, don't get in the way in front of me." ”

Now, the old couple's bickering has become an ornamental program for the Qiao family, and everyone listens happily, busy with their own work, and does not intervene to participate.

Just as they were listening, Qin Jiashu and Qiao Bei walked into the small courtyard one after the other.

"Xiaobei is back!" Qiao's mother and Qiao's father greeted them together.

I haven't seen him for three years, Qiao Bei has gained a little weight and whiter, and he looks more mature and stable than he did three years ago, but when he opened his mouth, his hometown dialect was a little lame.

Qiao's mother immediately slapped it over, and exhaled angrily: "After staying in the country of foreign devils for a few years, you won't be able to say anything at home!" ”

Qiao Bei knew that it was useless to explain, after all, what Qiao's mother said was the truth.

He touched his nose and announced another thing: "I came back this time, and I won't go out again, I joined the BGI Physics Laboratory to do scientific research and computing work, and I will serve the country in the future." ”

"Then you are serving the motherland and winning glory for the country." Josie was excited.

"Son, well done!" Qiao's mother immediately forgot Qiao Bei's lame hometown dialect, and happily gave a thumbs up.

Everyone else sent their congratulations.

In a beaming of joy, Qin Jiashu came to Josie's side, took out a small box from his pocket, and put it in the palm of Josie's hand.

Josie opened it in confusion and saw a ring lying in the center of the box.

The diamond on the top of the ring sparkles dazzlingly in the sun.

"A gift for you." Qin Jiashu's lips were close to her ear, and he whispered softly: "Now everyone gives this when they get married, and if others have it, you have to have it too." ”

Josie's heart moved slightly, and her eyes crooked with a smile again.

After being married for so many years, Qin Jiashu has given her countless gifts, and he is not tired of giving them, and she naturally does not get tired of receiving them.

The feelings of others are getting weaker and weaker, but they seem to be getting better and better, and it is like when they first got married, they have endless words and small surprises anytime and anywhere.

She looked at him and suddenly thought of a sentence from the bottom of her heart: "Actually, you don't have to give me a gift, you are the best gift in my life." ”

A flash of surprise and joy flashed in Qin Jiashu's eyes, and then he repeated this sentence.

"You are also the best gift of my life."
