Volume 1: The Beginning of Spring (4)
The slightly dim fluorescent lamps look a little old.
There were three dishes on the small, old maroon table. At first, there was only one boiled green vegetable and a dish of fried shredded pork with carrots, but because Chen Zhao got the money, Xia Qing added a silver carp to his joy.
The dinner was very bland, and Chen Zhao was a little unaccustomed to eating, but he didn't know why, and he was in a happy mood when he saw his daughter eating with relish.
"Chen Zhao, how did you get your money?" Xia Qing asked.
"Oh, the money... I borrowed it from Zhang Jun. Chen Zhao said.
"Zhang Jun?" Xia Qing was a little stunned, "You... Didn't you borrow a lot of money from him? His child wasn't born for a long time, so how could he have the money to borrow you? ”
Xia Qing's words made Chen Zhao dumbfounded, and he smiled instead, "Don't worry, Zhang Jun and I have known each other for so many years, I know who he is." This bastard must have some money to spare. ”
"Is it..."
Although she had some doubts, Xia Qing soon left it behind, she didn't know much about Zhang Jun, she really didn't plan to think deeply, and the family was happy.
Chen Zhao, who is only 18 years old, will not think about it so far, he is still 18 years old, with a slightly immature and simple psychology to analyze and think. He would not have thought of what the situation and mood of Zhang Jun and Chen's father at this moment were.
It was late at night.
The noise finally stopped, and the world began to fall silent.
"Daddy..."
Suddenly, his daughter Xiaole's voice woke up Chen Zhao, who was in a daze, and he turned his head and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"I'm going to sleep." The daughter was wearing a small vest, covering her little body with a quilt, and whispered, "Dad also goes to bed early." ”
"Uh..."
Xiaole's sudden words made Chen Zhao feel indescribable, and paused for a few seconds.
He found that compared with the boredom of going to bed earlier as told by his parents, when the role was changed to his daughter, the boredom was replaced by a different kind of joy. He couldn't figure out what the reason was...
"Okay." Chen Zhao, who couldn't figure it out, didn't know what to do for a while, and he was afraid that he would suddenly be too intimate and make his daughter afraid, so he could only respond gently.
Side.
Chen Zhao also didn't see that Xia Qing, who was reading the documents to be prepared for the company's meeting tomorrow, was shocked because of his daughter's actions.
Since she was a child, her daughter has been a little afraid of Chen Zhao since she was a child, why did she suddenly start to be kind?
"Is it because Chen Zhao's attitude towards his daughter has changed?" She couldn't help but mutter.
Yes, that makes sense.
Xia Qing felt that Chen Zhao had become a little strange today, not that she was sensitive, but it was really a little different from usual.
Pooling money for your daughter, calling your name, and being intimate with your daughter...
But Xia Qing didn't hate this change, on the contrary, Chen Zhao's sense of responsibility as the head of the family made her extremely gratified. It's just that she really wants to know why Chen Zhao suddenly became like this.
"It's late, or I'll go to bed." Xia Qing closed the document and asked Chen Zhao.
This made Chen Zhao's face suddenly red and embarrassed.
The reason why he was in a daze was because he had to sleep at night.
In his life, except for his mother, he has never slept with a woman. To put it bluntly, he didn't even hold the girl's hand, so he suddenly slept with a beautiful beauty, although he was named his wife, but the fluttering and crazy accelerated heartbeat was enough to show his uneasiness at the moment.
"What's wrong? Not feeling well? Xia Qing was curious.
"Ahh No, that's... Then go to sleep. He chuckled.
The bed is not big, but it can barely sleep a family of three, it seems that Xiaole is sleeping against the wall, and he is snuggling up with Xia Qing. This made Chen Zhao wonder how he could calm down at night.
It's just that in the next second, when Chen Zhao saw Xia Qing take off the pajamas he had changed into in the shower in front of her, revealing his snow-white skin, he was so dizzy and frightened that he turned his head suddenly.
He didn't have to think about it to know that his face must be flushed, and the sound of rapid breathing was enough to indicate his mood at the moment.
"What's wrong?" Xia Qing was a little dumbfounded when he saw Chen Zhao's actions.
"No... It's nothing. Why don't you sleep in your pajamas? ”
"Are you stupid? Don't I sleep like this all the time? ”
“....”
Only then did Chen Zhao react, and he almost didn't slap himself, yes, what do you think about this idiot brain? Ask these foolish questions, isn't this to be suspected? He hurriedly said, "Ah... I just feel a little cold today, I'm afraid you're catching a cold. ”
"Oh, is it? I don't think it's cold. Xia Qing nodded suspiciously and climbed into bed, "You can sleep too." ”
Chen Zhao didn't feel sleepy, but he was afraid that refusing would make Xia Qing feel strange, but he didn't dare to lie down next to her, so he hurriedly said, "I'd better go take a shower first and then sleep." After saying that, he hurriedly ran into the bathroom.
After taking a shower in the bathroom, staying for a while, and coming out to see that Xia Qing was asleep, Chen Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, just put on his pajamas and walked cautiously to the bed, sat on a small stool in the window, and eased his mood.
Turning his head, Chen Zhao could clearly see Xia Qing's beautiful side face. If you lift it a little more, you can still see the cute appearance of the daughter sleeping soundly in the corner.
Staring at the mother and daughter for a long time, he turned off the light, and in this quiet world, Chen Zhao looked thoughtfully at the bright moon that finally avoided the dark clouds and reappeared.
The world is really quiet, listen carefully, he can hear a few wisps of breeze carrying the willow leaves not far in front of the building, there is a sound of rattling, I don't know which floor the wooden door is creaking and turning, and the sound of his daughter's even breathing...
"Is there really no superpower?" Chen Zhao sighed in disappointment.
"What superpowers?"
It's just that Xia Qing's voice from behind him startled Chen Zhao, and he almost fell off the stool, and when he saw Xia Qing who opened his eyes, he was a little panicked, and said, "Why didn't you sleep?" ”
"I suddenly got a little thirsty, so I got up." Xia Qing got up, and his unobstructed skin was exposed in front of Chen Zhao's eyes, making him freeze in place. Fortunately, the lights were not turned on, and Xia Qing didn't see his tomato-like face.
"What superpowers are you talking about?"
"No... It's nothing. I watched a TV episode...," Chen Zhao explained.
"Really..."Xia Qing picked up the water glass and smiled lightly, "You are quite strange today, and you also talked about TV dramas." But watch less, you're stupid again. That's all fake, life will always depend on down-to-earth and hard work. ”
Chen Zhao smiled bitterly, how could he not know that it was all fake, but he was reborn, maybe there could really be such a thing.
As for... Foot strength and hard work....
Chen Zhao sighed secretly again, this is the most precious thing, right?
"By the way, I'm going to the company at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning, can you take Xiaole out for some breakfast? I put some money in the drawer. Xia Qing said.
"Ahh Good. Chen Zhao nodded, paused, and asked again, "6 o'clock... Isn't it too early. ”
"It's okay, there's overtime pay." Xia Qing smiled reluctantly.
To be honest, Chen Zhao knew very well how Xia Qing treated himself who had been decadent for many years in the future. Comparing his heart to his heart, he really doesn't know if he becomes Xia Qing, will he abandon such a self....
But he is no longer the original Chen Zhao, maybe he really doesn't want to work and do tiring things, but he really can't let a woman support the family, he has to repay what he owes Xia Qing.
"Xia Qing..."
“?”
Chen Zhao's title still puzzled her, and she wanted to ask the reason.
"I'll go find a job tomorrow."
But Chen Zhao's words broke what Xia Qinggang wanted to say. Xia Qing was stunned and said, "What did you say?"
"I'm going to look for a job tomorrow to earn money. You owe money to others to repay, and you can't rely on you alone in the family... It's just that I haven't worked before, and I don't know how to find a job, can you recommend it to me..."
Before he finished speaking, Chen Zhao saw Xia Qing hugging him all of a sudden.
This move startled Chen Zhao, although he knew why Xia Qing was hugging him, but he really couldn't stand this kind of stimulation, and hurriedly wanted to push it away, but this accidentally pushed it onto Xia Qing's chest.
"Not at night, I have to go to work tomorrow morning, tomorrow... Tomorrow. Xia Qing whispered.
“...”
Chen Zhao is an adult, he knows what the words between husband and wife mean, and he can't hold back a word for a long time.
....
The night was getting deeper.
In the small room, there was only the sound of the three people on the bed breathing evenly, perhaps mixed with the sound of insects in the grass pile downstairs.
Chen Zhao, who was rendered by the refreshing fragrance of women, had only one thought...
What kind of job can I get? How much money can you make?
