When the plane was about to take off, Qiao Qin closed the newspaper and closed her eyes. With one hand, she touched her daughter's little face as smooth as a peeled egg.
The children in the family have grown up and are going to high school.
For the two children studying in high school in Beijing, Qiao Qin has been running to Beijing for more than half a year, and has been busy with Song Jianguo for a long time.
Enrolling in high school in Beijing, Song Qiaoxi's hukou has been moved to Beijing ahead of schedule. The problem of Chu Jin's hukou, Song Jianguo met with Mr. Chu in private several times, and finally resolved it.
The couple never worried about Chu Jin's grades, they were very stable.
Their daughter's grades, the couple was worried that they would be partial to subjects, but what they didn't expect was that Song Qiaoxi's grades have been rising steadily from the second grade test to the first experimental class, and the third grade did not fall out of the first experimental class.
Song Qiaoxi and Chu Jin finally took the high school entrance examination in Qizhou City.
Without any suspense, Chu Jin took the first place in the third grade of the foreign language school, and also won the first prize in the high school entrance examination in Qizhou City. At the same time, he won several gold medals in the math Olympiad and physics competitions, and even TV stations and newspapers came to interview him. he.
Song Qiaoxi has been able to stably rank among the top ten in the senior middle school in several mock exams in the third year of junior high school. This time in the senior high school entrance examination, she performed at an extra level. She was ranked fourth in the foreign language school's junior high school entrance examination and ninth in the city's senior high school entrance examination. name.
However, what gave the Song family a bit of a headache was that the two children had different future development paths.
The two discussed it several times, went to the foreign language school teacher for interviews, and took the results of the two children and talked several times with the experts from the Beijing Education Portal that Zhao Chenguang found.
Everyone agreed that it would be a pity not to go to Tsinghua University because of Chu Jin's achievements. Qiao Qin also asked Chu Jin privately and knew that he wanted to major in computer science.
The computer major of Tsinghua University is a well-known name in the world!
Therefore, Chu Jin is a key public school suitable for going to Beijing.
As for Song Qiaoxi, this little girl from the Song family has a lively nature and is not a material to study hard for grades, so the couple still supports Xixi to study abroad and learn photography that she likes.
Since studying abroad, Qiao Qin has not considered international schools. It is much more convenient for Song Qiaoxi to prepare for the SAT and TOEFL.
But the couple thought about it for a long time and gave up on letting their daughter go to an international school.
One reason is that they don't want to separate the two children. Xixi and Jin Jin have just arrived in Beijing from Qizhou. They are not familiar with each other, and they have no known classmates or friends. The two children go to different schools, and I am afraid they will not get used to it. , also lonely.
Adolescence is so sensitive, two children grew up together, and it is best to have a company.
The second reason is because the couple both feel that the beauty of youth is to experience things that children of the same age can experience.
Ordinary high school life and the college entrance examination are all things that youth must experience. It seems that life is not complete without going through the college entrance examination once, and it cannot bring a happy ending to youth.
Zhao Chenguang also made great efforts for the two children of the Song family to go to school. He said before that Song Qiaoxi and Chu Jin would go to R University with Zhao Xin.
As a result, I found out that it was the International Department attached to R University.
Song Qiaoxi and Chu Jin did not participate in the Beijing high school entrance examination. Even if the two children now have Beijing household registration, their grades are exceptional, and Chu Jin is the top student in the high school entrance examination in Qizhou City. one thing.
Originally, Qiao Qin and Song Jianguo did not give up hope and were going to choose another school, but they unexpectedly received a call from R University after the two children took the high school entrance examination.
On the phone, it was said that the two children could come to the school to take the entrance examination and interview. If the scores in all aspects are really excellent, it is not that there is no chance of exceptional admission.
Song Qiaoxi and Chu Jin successfully passed the written test and interview, and Chu Jin even reached the level of the experimental class attached to R University.
The plane entered the stratosphere, and Qiao Qin opened his eyes.
I thought to myself, good things take a long time to come, and I finally solved the big issue of the two children going to school. The entrance test and interview should be an opportunity for Zhao Chenguang to find talents, right
"Xixi, do everything, tomorrow night we will invite Uncle Zhao to have a meal together. He helped a lot when you went to R University." Qiao Qin said to the two children.
"Okay, I can use the New Year's money to invite Uncle Zhao to eat roast duck." Song Qiaoxi nodded obediently.
The second day after arriving in Beijing, at the dinner table, what surprised Qiao Qin was that Zhao Chenguang always denied that it was him who helped.
Zhao Chenguang drank half a glass of beer and waved his hands with red face, "Brother and sister, I'm not the one I'm looking for. If I had such great ability, I wouldn't let Zhao Xin transfer from the International Department to the Headquarters?"
"Ah? This..." Qiao Qin was also stunned, and looked at Song Jianguo.
Who is running this thing
Wait, Qiao Qin seems to remember a detail.
When the two children went in for the exam and interview, a director of the school made a special trip downstairs and had a few words with her.
"Did you accompany Chu Jin to take the exam?" The female director, who looked in her fifties and wore glasses with curly hair, shook hands with Qiao Qin with great enthusiasm.
"Hello, hello, yes, I'm Song Qiaoxi's mother, and Chu Jin is my friend's child. Come and bring the two children to the exam and interview." Qiao Qin shook hands with the director.
She patronized and worried about the two children who were taking exams inside, and only casually exchanged a few words with the director. She kept looking at the glass door at the door of the classroom to observe the situation of the two children.
The director seemed to say something in a low voice, "Don't worry on your side, it's already arranged, we all know the situation on the child's side, and the grades are very good. Today is just a process, and the old man and the leader have explained it.. . . . "
At that time, Qiao Qin also asked the director, "Old man? Did you remember wrong..."
The master was vague, "Ow, look at me, I'm talking too much. It's alright, just sit in the classroom next to you and take a rest, pour you a glass of water... "
--
It was also dinner time in the Chu house.
Old Man Chu leaned on a cane and walked out of the study humming a little song, his steps were much lighter.
There were several old friends of Chu Youhe sitting in the dining room of the Chu family's banquet. Today, Chu Youhe called them and said that there was something important to announce to them.
"Mingzhe, have you printed out the photo?" Mr. Chu snapped his fingers at Mingzhe at the door of the restaurant.
Mingzhe also had a smile on his face, "It's printed, don't worry, put the old man on it."
"Okay, I can rest assured when you do things." Old Man Chu greeted a few old buddies with brisk steps, "Don't come here and be safe, old guys?"
"Oh, You He, you look a lot younger?"
"Hahaha, looking at your face full of spring breeze, this is the second spring!"
"Nonsense, after my sister-in-law left, Brother Chu vowed not to marry for life."
"It's been a long time since we got together. You called us here today. Is there anything important to announce?"
…
All present here are some old buddies from Chu Youhe's family who grew up with bare buttocks for many years.
The old man Chu stood upright and coughed lightly, "Cough, I called you here today to announce a great news to you. My grandson graduated from junior high school, and he was the champion of the senior high school entrance examination on TV and newspapers. , Ma Shan is coming to Beijing to attend high school and the experimental class attached to R University. Two months ago, the eldest grandson's hukou was officially assigned to the Chu family, which is really gratifying!"
With that said, he glanced at the mahogany cabinet beside the dining table, with several photo frames on it.
The old man Chu picked up a photo frame and showed it to the old buddies, with a arrogant tone, "Let's show you, my grandson, the old man's name is Chu Jin, and the name is also nice. Just look, is he handsome? Tsk tsk, a big man of about 1.8 meters, the child is really tall and straight, you look at it, is it very similar to when I was young!"
Several old buddies put on reading glasses one after another and leaned forward to look at the photos, somewhat disappointed in their hearts.
As old friends who have known each other for many years, they know everything about the Chu family. They always said that they wanted to come and see the eldest grandson that Chu Youhe brought back from Qizhou. They thought they would see the real person today!
The photo is Chu Jin's solo graduation photo. He is wearing a neat foreign language school uniform and a tie. The beautiful young man with star eyebrows and sword eyes looks handsome and youthful.
"Hey, don't say it, it's so handsome! But I don't look like you, I still look like your old age..."
"Nonsense, just like me!" Mr. Chu immediately lowered his face and showed the photo to the remaining old buddies.
"Brother Chu, how old is Shi's nephew this year?"
"The birthday on March 28th in the eighth/ninth year is the sixteenth this year," Mr. Chu continued with a smile, and continued, "The Chinese zodiac sign belongs to Xiaolong or the zodiac sign is Aries, smart and aggressive. The blood type is B blood, and he will be a person who can become a big thing in the future."
"Oh, are you counting on your eldest grandson to take over? Be the key training target!"
"This..." Mr. Chu hesitated for a moment. Of course he wanted Chu Jin to take over, but he had to show a great attitude, "It doesn't matter if the child is willing to take over, just let him take over. The company, I must be more than happy. But if the child doesn't want to, don't force him to do what he likes."
"Isn't that right? Now young people are unwilling to take our class. My son can still squeeze a little bit. My eldest grandson, he is anxious to talk to him about taking over the class! He doesn't even want to study a business degree, as soon as he goes to university. I just formed a band with my classmates and played rock and roll... "
"Hey, I think this guy is really good. My granddaughter is about to turn 19 years old. The third girl holds a golden brick, Lao Chu, are we two relatives?"
When he mentioned "marriage", Mr. Chu was about to have PTSD, so he frowned and waved his hands quickly, "No no no, keep that precious granddaughter of yours for yourself. I have a granddaughter-in-law that I like, and my grandson is still a childhood sweetheart."
After dinner, Mr. Chu sat on the large leather chair in the study, and put the photos that Mingzhe had washed out in a row on the boss's table, looking at each one carefully.
There are graduation photos of Chu Jin's junior high school, and there are photos of Chu Jin participating in the interview. These two photos were obtained by Mr. Chu through special channels.
There are also a few photos, which are single-person photos of Chu Jin when he was a child. They are basically side faces without looking at the camera. From the photos, it can be seen that Chu Jin has indeed been good-looking since he was a child, and is as delicate as a porcelain doll.
There is another one, which is Mr. Chu's favorite. As soon as he sees him, he is in a very good mood and gives a knowing smile.
This photo is a photo of Song Qiaoxi and Chu Jin when they were young. It looks like they are about seven or eight years old. The two children dress like two pink-carved jade-cut New Year's picture dolls, making cute gestures of Gong Xi Fa Cai and red envelopes.
These photos were re-developed by Song Jianguo and brought to Mr. Chu.
Song Jianguo also told the old man that all of Chu Jin's single photos were taken by Song Qiaoxi, and his daughter liked to use Chu Jin as a model since she was a child, and took many photos.
Old Man Chu's hands trembled a little, stroking the photo frame lightly, his heart surging with heat.
"Everything, Grandpa finally expects you to come back," Mr. Chu stood up, took out a red household registration book from the desk and walked to the bookcase behind him.
On the bookcase, in the most conspicuous position, there are photos of Chu Youhe's deceased wife when she was young.
"Old woman, I'm finally not the only one in this family. We have grandchildren, and the grandson's household registration has all belonged to our family. Let me show you." Mr. Chu smiled like a child, and opened the household registration book to show the photos on it. people look.
Smiling and smiling, Old Man Chu's tears fell.
He took out a handkerchief, wiped his tears, walked back to the desk, took a group photo of Chu Jin and Song Qiaoxi, and placed it in the most conspicuous position of the bookcase behind him.
--
The summer vacation in 2005 went by very fast. The academic pressure attached to R University was no joke, so Qiao Qin signed up Song Qiaoxi and Chu Jin for the summer vacation tutoring class in advance.
This summer vacation, especially Song Qiaoxi, really calmed down and studied hard.
She had already heard about the reputation of R University Attached, but she didn't want to take a countdown as soon as the school started, and she couldn't be ashamed of Qizhou Foreign Language.
It was less than a week before the start of school, and Mother Song helped them bring back their new high school uniforms, and the remedial class was over.
This old-fashioned key high school in Beijing is different from the Western-style uniform of Song Qiaoxi's private school in Qizhou. It is a wide red and white sportswear.
Song Qiaoxi is still looking forward to the new school uniform. To be honest, after three years of wearing a small skirt, a slim-fitting shirt, and a tied suit uniform, she is really tired...
Teenage boys and girls are all active years. Although Western-style uniforms look good, they are really far from sportswear in terms of comfort.
"Xixi, take the time to try on the school uniform, and give it a try. If it's too big, my mother will take it to the tailor shop at the door to change it for you, trouser legs, cuffs, etc., I guess you won't grow any longer. It's okay for Chu Jin to be older, I think he's still growing..." After Song's mother entered the door, she hurriedly handed the school uniform to Song Qiaoxi.
Song's mother kept thinking about the ringing of the phone in her purse, she turned and went to the kitchen to answer the phone.
"Hey, why don't I grow longer?" Song Qiaoxi said with a confused expression as she took over the uniform.
When she found that her mother ignored her, she pouted in disapproval, "I don't care, I don't need to change when I get older, and I can still grow taller..."
But on second thought, it seems that since the second day of junior high, she has maintained a height of 1.63 meters. No matter how much milk and bone broth she drinks, she has never grown a centimeter.
On the contrary, Chu Jin, this guy doesn't drink much milk and doesn't eat much meat, he has grown to 1.85 meters...
Sighing, Song Qiaoxi accepted her fate.
"Dong dong dong", she stepped on the stairs and went upstairs, just when Chu Jin came downstairs with an empty water glass.
Song Qiaoxi waved the school uniform in her hand to him, and Chu Jin staggered away, and said without raising her head, "Try on the school uniform when you have time, and I'll put it in your room for you."
Chu Jin tried to stand against the wall to make way for her, and said in a low voice, "Well, you can just find a place to put it on, and I'll try it later."
Going upstairs, the door of Chu Jin's room was open.
Song Qiaoxi threw Chu Jin's school uniform onto his bed, carried her school uniform back to the room, and closed the door to try on the school uniform.
Usually at home, she only wears a flat tube top for bottoming, and a loose nightdress with suspenders on the outside.
She took off her nightgown, put on red and white school uniform pants, and casually put on her school uniform jacket. She took a look in front of the mirror. It seemed that she was really big
The waist of the school uniform trousers was also very fat, hanging loosely on her straddle. She wore the sweatpants into low-waisted trousers, revealing a flat and firm belly.
The trouser legs were also long, and she rolled up the trouser legs to reveal her slender ankles.
The school uniform jacket is a zipper, Song Qiaoxi tried to pull it.
"Huh?" After pulling it a few times, I found that the zipper of this school uniform seemed to be broken, and it could only be pulled up a little at the beginning.
She pulled it several times, but still couldn't pull it, the zipper head stuck there, so she had to cry and go downstairs to ask her mother for help.
Song Qiaoxi was wearing only a light pink tube top with a flat neck. The wide school uniform jacket was left open, only the hem was barely hung by the zipper puller.
Through the open school uniform jacket, you can see her delicate skin as white as snow, and her cute little belly button.
"Mom, the zipper of my school uniform is broken, what should I do..." The little girl "dengdengdeng" ran down the stairs, grabbing the school uniform jacket with one hand and shouting.
As soon as she got downstairs, when she looked up, she saw Chu Jin standing next to the water dispenser holding a water cup "ton ton ton" to fill with water.
"Where's Mom?" Song Qiaoxi probed her head and looked in the direction of the living room.
There was no mother in the living room, nor in the kitchen. She strolled around and returned to Chu Jin with her school uniform jacket in both hands.
"Where did your aunt Qiao go?" Song Qiaoxi asked a little dissatisfied, feeling that she had been shouting for a long time, but Chu Jin had been standing downstairs. She must know where her mother went, so why didn't she tell her
While asking, he continued to "fight" with the zipper.
After a long time, Song Qiaoxi heard Chu Jin's voice.
"Aunt Qiao, Aunt Qiao has gone to the property, and will be back in a while..." Chu Jin's voice was dry and his head was tilted again.
These two words were forced out of his throat.
It's not that he doesn't want to answer Song Qiaoxi, but...
At this moment, Chu Jin didn't dare to look up at all.
From the moment Song Qiaoxi went downstairs, he couldn't stand here to drink water calmly.
The girl's beautiful body should be wrapped in a wide school uniform, but, Song Qiaoxi's waist and tight belly can be clearly seen by Chu Jin.
He bit his lip and turned his head away from looking at her.
But in my mind, the lingering thing is that dazzlingly white skin, which is smoother than milk as far as I can imagine. …
