Every New Year's Day, it is always the busiest time in Hualing Lane.

Every household in the alley began to be busy cleaning, preparing New Year's goods, and buying new clothes. While the adults are busy, the children enjoy the holidays, running and playing in the streets.

The children of poor people like Qu Shaoyao and Jiang Jingcheng who are in charge of the family early will start to help the adults early.

The business of Qujia Fruit Shop is very good every New Year, and all kinds of online and offline orders are full. For several days, Qu Shaoyao was either delivering or on the way to deliver.

When Xia Chengxi came, Qu Shaoyao had just returned from delivering the goods, took off his scarf and hat, picked up the water cup and drank a few sips of water.

"I'm dripping! This day, I can run to death! ”

Xia Chengxi put a large bag of New Year's goods on the cash register, "Oh, this is the New Year's goods that my mother prepared for Aunt Qu and you this year." ”

Qu shook his heart and came over, looking left and right: "Wow, it's such a big one this year!" It's all my favorite snacks...... Godmother is so good, thank you godmother! ”

"As far as your mouth is sweet, you are the heaviest!"

Xia Chengxi complained, and then stuffed a few more bags into her hand, each bag contained a New Year's gift, but it looked much smaller than the one given to Qu Shao's family.

"Quick, help me get to work! Let's deliver it together! ”

Xia Chengxi's mother is the largest landlady in Hualing Lane, and every Chinese New Year, she will personally prepare a small New Year's gift for the tenants to express her heart.

And Qu Shao's share will always be the biggest.

Qu Shaoyao was short of hands, and it was not easy to refuse, so he drank two more sips of water, and obediently followed Xia Chengxi to send warmth.

The two carried the New Year's goods and chatted as they walked.

"Why haven't you seen Brother Jiang recently? Since I started to participate in the winter vacation team's training camp, I can't see a single shadow every day. ”

"I just went to his house before I came to your house, but he's home today......

"Then why don't you call him to help you deliver the goods with you?" Qu shook his pout, and whispered, "You will enslave me...... Hum. ”

Xia Chengxi glanced at him, "He's helping Uncle Jiang tidy up the warehouse today, a rare opportunity to brush up his favor, why am I calling him?" ”

Qu Shao shook himself and thought, then I'm still helping my mother run errands and deliver goods......

As soon as I thought of this, the mobile phone rang, and it was Qu's mother calling.

"Eighty percent of them have orders coming again......"

Qu Shaoyao put the bag in his hand on the ground and picked up the phone. She guessed correctly, and sure enough, there was a new order to be delivered.

"Oooh...... It's Diyun Yuan again? Can't I send this single line? Belch...... Okay, I'll come after sending the New Year's goods to Xixi. ”

After hanging up the phone, Qu shook his face with a sad face.

"What's wrong with you?" Xia Chengxi covered her mouth and snickered, "Are you so afraid of seeing the number of masters......

"yes, I'm afraid he'll ask me about my math grades, isn't it that I didn't pass the test...... I'm afraid that he will turn over old accounts. ”

Xia Chengxi smiled meaninglessly, "Third child, when did you start to be so afraid of the number tyrant?" ”

"I'm not afraid of him, I'm afraid of him doing it."

I still owe dozens of brains and haven't paid it back! Qu shook his head and felt a faint pain in his forehead when he thought about it.

"The Devil? That number of tyrants' methods of flirting with girls are quite special......"

Qu Shao stopped and looked at Xia Chengxi inexplicably, "What do you want to say...... Do you want to say that I have a leg with a stinky student or something? I tell you, no way! I'm an enemy with him! You know the old enemy...... The kind that can never be reconciled! ”

Xia Chengxi smiled at her aunt, "I understand, I understand, my old enemies, many happy enemies also started from old enemies, come on!" I'm optimistic about you guys......"

Qu Shao didn't want to pay attention to her anymore and quickened his pace.

"Hurry up, hurry! I have to go back to deliver the goods after delivery, and I don't have time to accompany you to conceive the script of the idol drama here......"

In the No. 7 courtyard of Diyun Garden, Qu Shaoyao skillfully rang the doorbell.

Heavy snow's head came out of the fence and meowed twice, as if to welcome.

"Ah, Snow Baby, why are you here! Did you miss me? ”

Qu Shao stretched out his hand in surprise, and just as he was about to pet the cat, Daxue was lifted by someone from behind and lifted up the back of his neck.

The door opened, and Pei Yue stood by the door with Daxue in his arms, looking at Qu Shao with an expressionless face.

"Come in."

Heavy snow struggled a few times in his arms, kicking his little feet unconvinced. Qu shook his hand and stroked its head, and carried the fruit into the door.

The old lady had been waiting in the living room for a long time, and when she saw Qu Shake coming, she greeted her with a smile: "Shake is coming!" Come in, come in, it's cold outside......"

"Hello grandma! I'm here to bring you fruit! ”

Qu shook his mouth very sweetly, and coaxed the old lady into a smile in three or two clicks. The old lady sent her grandson to make tea, Pei Yue took the fruit in Qu Shao's hand, turned around and went into the kitchen.

Daxue regained her freedom, and immediately jumped on Qu Shaky's knees, and began to snoring and rolling coquettishly.

Qu shook his hair and stroked it, and accompanied the old lady to say this without a match.

Suddenly, she glanced at it and saw a photo in front of the table in the living room where Pei Yue's grandfather's portrait was placed, which was the one that Qu Shao took on tiptoe with his mobile phone when the National Mathematics Competition was awarded not long ago.

In the photo, Pei Yue held the trophy in one hand and placed the amulet on his chest with the other, and for the first time his face had the vigor that should belong to a teenager.

"Grandma, why is that picture there?" Qu Shao asked curiously.

The old lady smiled, "It's to let the old man see that his grandson has received this honor and fulfilled his agreement with him." ”

"Promise? What's the agreement? ”

"The promise of winning the championship of the National Mathematics Competition......"

As if to open the dusty chatterbox, the old lady talked about the past.

It turned out that when Pei Yue was very young, his parents went to work abroad, because the nature of the work was relatively special, and he rarely had time to return to China.

So Pei Yue has always been brought up by his grandparents.

Pei Yue's grandfather is a professor of mathematics, and since he was a child, he took his grandson to play Sudoku and practice mental arithmetic.

"This child has been lonely since he was a child, and he doesn't like to play with other children, so we have always been by his side. When he was young, his health was not good, he was thin and small, and he was always sick, so his grandfather often took him to run, play, play football, exercise or something......"

Qu shook his heart and said No wonder, his physical strength is so good......

The old lady recalled the past and said with some emotion: "Our old man has taught students all his life, and he is notoriously strict, with high standards and strict requirements, and it is the same when he teaches his grandson......

Qu Sha Sha: "......"

After a long time, this bullet is still ancestral?

"However, this child is the closest to his grandfather, and his relationship has always been very deep......"

The old lady rubbed her eyes when she said this.

Three years ago, Grandpa Pei was seriously ill, and Pei Yue agreed with his grandfather at the bedside that he would win the national mathematics competition championship and give him a gift for recovery. It's a pity that Grandpa Pei didn't wait for this day in the end.
