Jingxiu put the talisman bag into the inner pocket of the clothes, and put it together with two small Hetian jade safety buttons, one white and one red, and carried it close to the body.
Ji Changsong has been discharged from the hospital safely. After Ji Youyan arrived in Yanzhou, he and Lin Yuebing separated and went to his parents' residence in a low-key manner. Zhong Qingyu knew that she was coming back, although she didn't say anything, but Ji Youyan felt her unspoken joy when she saw the richness of the dinner.
This is a family of three eating at the same table again after many years. The room temperature was warm, but the atmosphere on the table was cool.
There was silence, only the occasional sound of the collision of the bowls and chopsticks sounded.
Ji Yuyan felt uncomfortable. If it were before, this embarrassing situation would probably last a whole dinner. But many years of experience in socializing, and hope to ease the relationship, let Ji Youyan bow his head and be the one to break the deadlock.
She took a chopstick of fish, praised Zhong Qingyu's fish for being fresh, and asked her what kind of fish it was. Zhong Qingyu was a little surprised, and then answered her gently, and said more about where she bought it. Ji Youyan followed along and asked, it was not far away, how to get there, and then the topic spread out as she wished.
Ji Changsong ate quietly by the side without saying a word.
Zhong Qingyu gave Ji Youyan a wink, and Ji Youyan understood. She spoke to Ji Changsong naturally, "Dad, Mom said you want to change to a new energy vehicle?"
Ji Changsong stopped his chopsticks and lifted his eyelids to look at her. After two seconds of silence, he replied, "Yeah."
Ji Youyan said tentatively: "I have endorsed one before, so I know a little about this market. What do you want, Dad, and what is the price? Pure electric or plug-in hybrid?"
She deliberately mentioned the topic of endorsement, and wanted to test Ji Changsong's attitude towards her work now.
Ji Changsong replied to her: "I and your mother use it for transportation. There is no need to buy a good one. It needs a hybrid."
Ji Youyan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw his calm expression. She talked with Ji Changsong on this topic, and finally talked about the equipment of charging pile facilities in Yanzhou, but they disagreed. In terms of the convenience and cost-effectiveness of new energy vehicles, no one could convince anyone, and almost quarreled again. .
Ji Youyan noticed that something was wrong, so he stopped quickly. Ji Changsong seemed to be aware of it, so he fell silent. After taking a sip of the soup, he suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Do you need to know this about endorsements?"
Ji Yuyan looked at him in surprise, and he lowered his head to drink the soup again.
The smile gradually climbed the corners of Ji Youyan's lips, she said calmly: "I don't know if others will understand me, I will try to understand it as much as possible. On the one hand, it is to understand the reputation and quality of the product, and to avoid the occurrence of improperly endorsed products. Negative news, on the other hand, can also be considered to broaden your knowledge." It is not an easy task to be well-rounded at a dinner party, you must at least ensure that you can catch up on any topic that others talk about. , so you have to know a little bit about everything.
Ji Changsong frowned slightly, as if a teacher was listening to a student's report. It was like this when he checked Ji Youyan's homework since he was a child. Ji Youyan was inexplicably nervous when he looked at him, and he also had a little inexplicable nostalgia for him.
"Yes, you should understand." He said in a serious tone, "but it shouldn't be limited to worrying about negative news. You are a typical self-interested mentality. As public figures, the greater your influence and appeal, the more likely you will be. You should know how to exercise these abilities with more caution and restraint so as not to mislead others. You should have this kind of awareness.”
Apart from that, Ji Changsong's consistent faults are on the line. But at least the people who recognize their industry are public figures, not the scorned actors they used to be.
Ji Youyan defended: "I have."
"I haven't had time to say it yet, so you should say it first." In the past, when Ji Changsong criticized her, no matter whether she recognized it or not, she always kept silent, and when she was pressed, she simply admitted her mistake. Ji Changsong's relief gave her the courage, and it was the first time that she softened her tone of sophistry.
Ji Changsong wanted to say something, but she got stuck by her sudden act of coquettishness.
When was the last time Ji Youyan acted like a spoiled child to her? Ji Changsong could not remember at all, was it three years old or five years old? It seems that since she started learning the piano, or since she went to school, he was her father and her teacher, and the relationship between their father and daughter became more and more estranged, and Ji Youyan spoke less and less in this family.
Reaching out his hand not to hit the smiling face, Ji Changsong eased his face: "It's good that you know."
After a pause, he said earnestly: "No matter what you do, you have to remember it. Do it well, do it well, and respect it. I taught you to have a sense of reverence since you were a child. With this heart, no matter how far you go or how high you stand, Keep that in mind. Otherwise, one day you will fall into trouble."
This kind of teaching by elders and past people's kisses was the most disgusting in the past. And this season, Yuyan has learned to think in the best way and only listen to what she wants to hear. In any case, Ji Changsong cares about her, right
She docilely responded to him and said, "I've always remembered it. Just like the launch conference I just attended before I came back..." She and Ji Changsong talked about work, and Ji Changsong listened and commented from time to time.
Anyway, it looks kind of warm. Ji Youyan pondered in her heart that when her father was in better health, her affairs with Jingxiu could be put on the agenda. If this has to be a tug-of-war like her entering the entertainment industry, it can end early if it starts early.
After the meal, Ji Changsong and Zhong Qingyu went downstairs for a walk, Ji Youyan went back to the room to rest, and immediately wanted to report the good news to Jingxiu.
She voiced to Jingxiu that Ji Changsong cared about her work during dinner, and felt that Ji Changsong seemed to be less stubborn and difficult to communicate than before.
Jingxiu replied to her in seconds: "That's good."
Ji Youyan guessed that Jingxiu could listen to the voice message, and it should not be in the working state, so he pressed the video call request.
As she expected, Jingxiu was connected.
The background of Jingxiu seems to be in a simple and heavy decoration, Ji Youyan said strangely: "Axiu, aren't you in Lingzhou?"
"Well, I'm back in Beicheng."
Ji Youyan was stunned: "Ah? When? Then..." She wanted to say, then why didn't they see each other.
Jingxiu guessed what she meant, and said peacefully: "It doesn't matter when, you should go back to see your uncle. Besides, isn't there something to gain?"
Ji Youyan understood Jingxiu's thoughtfulness and affection. She asked concerned: "Have you eaten yet?"
"No, it's a while."
Ji Youyan looked at the award wall opposite, and said slyly: "Axiu, would you like to visit my current room? My parents arranged it to be almost exactly the same as the room I lived in before."
This is the territory where Ji Youyan has never invited her to enter during their many years of love, and of course Jingxiu wants to see it.
Ji Youyan turned the camera to the rear camera, and started to say: "This is my bed, you have seen it last time."
Jingxiu stood by the window, with shallow tenderness in his eyes, "En."
"This bed is bigger than the one I slept in before, 1.8 meters."
"I see."
"I slept too much by myself and only slept half of it. There is only one pillow on the bed now. Next time I come back, I hope to add another pillow." Ji You's words hinted.
Jingxiu's eyes twitched, and he asked knowingly, "Does the pillow sleep with the other half?"
"It's the other half sleeping on the pillow." Ji You said in a low judo.
Jingxiu didn't respond either well or badly, but the curvature of the corners of her lips betrayed her joy. She changed the subject: "What's on the opposite wall?"
Ji Youyan knew from her small expression that she understood. She did not embarrass Jingxiu, and followed her: "It's a certificate, can you see it clearly?"
She showed Jingxiu the bookcase, desk, and even opened the drawers and cabinets meticulously, "I was surprised when I opened it and found that there was actually something inside."
"Surprise for what?"
"I'm surprised that my parents seem to have directly moved everything from my desk and bookcase."
Ji Youyan introduced: "Look, this is the first game console I have. When I was about eight or nine years old, I secretly bought it with pocket money. At that time, I thought about where to hide the game console and put me I was so worried that I lost several kilograms in a month. It was also this game console that made me understand that I have no talent for doing bad things. "
Jingxiu couldn't help laughing.
"The most terrifying thing is that they even helped me move this too..." With that, Ji Youyan took out an unsealed cigarette case from the drawer.
Jingxiu smiled slightly, and said solemnly, "You smoke?"
Ji Youyan laughed, "Axiu, I was still sighing, I don't know what my parents looked like when they turned over this pack of cigarettes when they moved. I can probably imagine your expression now."
Jingxiu's face darkened a little.
Ji Youyan's desire to survive was resurrected, and he explained, "I don't smoke."
"Actually, I only smoked this pack of cigarettes. I peeked at the novel in high school, and was attracted by the appearance of a smoking woman described in it. I found it very charming and wanted to imitate it. I was choked. Later, I randomly stuffed it in a drawer and hid it. It's been a while, and I've forgotten about it."
Jingxiu seemed to think of something, and said faintly, "Your memory is not very good."
She looked at the old objects Ji Yuyan explained to her through the screen, as if she could touch the temperature of Ji Yuyan in that teenage period.
It was like a time travel with Ji Youyan.
"What is a locked notebook?" Jingxiu asked proactively. A very high stack.
Ji Youyan stroked the top one, "It's my diary from small to large."
Ji Changsong asked her to keep a diary. On the one hand, it was to exercise her written expression skills, and on the other hand, it was to let her know how her daily time passed.
"Since childhood?" Jingxiu asked, "Will you write even when you are seven or eight years old?"
Ji Youyan nodded, "Write it."
Jingxiu said softly, "If you have time to review it, there may be some unexpected gains."
Ji You said with a smile: "I think so too." Many things, with different experiences, feel different in retrospect. Ji Youyan felt that it should be interesting to look at his previous diaries.
"Can I take a look at your previous photos?" Jingxiu was intrigued.
Ji You said generously: "Of course you can." She pulled out the album that belonged to her, one by one, from the full moon photo to Jingxiu.
A screen apart, the horizon is so close, Ji Youyan opened her past, Jingxiu watched those times when she was not involved. She speaks beautifully, she listens carefully, and the years are quiet.
When she turned to the photo of her in the first grade, Jingxiu suddenly let out a low laugh.
Ji Youyan looked at herself in the photo with her beautiful eyebrows and her lovely smile, and asked, "Axiu, what are you smiling at?"
Jingxiu said ambiguous: "Nothing."
Obviously there is something, even if Jingxiu just gives a reason, but Jingxiu just doesn't say it. Ji Youyan was still struggling with this issue until he finished flipping through the album.
A servant knocked on the door, reminding Jingxiu that he could go downstairs for dinner. Jingxiu thought that Ji Youyan hadn't found out about it for so many years after she sold off her son, and left a clue to Ji Youyan.
She said the answer is in what I just said.
Well, sure enough there is something! But Ji Yuyan was puzzled.
It wasn't until two days later that she flew back to Lingzhou. She was bored on the plane and wanted to see something, and then she suddenly had a clue in her mind.
As soon as she got off the plane, she called Zhong Qingyu and asked her to send a courier.
The author has something to say: This is a good guess, I think the little cuties can guess faster than the old season!
