When Jiang Wang went to the bookstore to count the bills, he saw a child huddled in a corner, shrugging his shoulders and crying.
Peng Xingwang was still rubbing medicine on his head.
Jiang Wang didn't want to meddle in the children's affairs, and was afraid that something might happen in the bookstore, so he went over and found that the one who was injured was Yang Kai.
Yang Kai didn't dare to cry too obviously. Seeing the adult coming, his face was full of shame, and he wiped his face with the back of his hand and forcibly held back, blushing.
The man glanced at the nail prints on his arms and the side of his face: "Who scratched you like this?"
Peng Xingwang dipped a cotton swab into purple lotion and applied it on him: "Don't cover it, I haven't finished it yet."
Yang Kai vaguely sensed that Big Brother Jiang was here to see a joke, so he turned his face away and didn't speak, but then hiccupped for a long time.
Jiang Wang Zhile: "Good luck."
"I will never talk to girls anymore!!" Yang Kai said angrily, "If you talk to me again, I will be the one!!"
"Which one?" Jiang Wang didn't think it was a big deal after watching the excitement: "Did Zhang Xiaolu call you?"
Yang Kai's eyes widened: "How do you know again?"
Nonsense, she is your wife twenty years later, and she gave birth to a daughter for you.
Jiang Wang couldn't help laughing, and turned his head to glance at Peng Xingwang.
The kid was timid, so cowardly he talked about everything.
Zhang Xiaolu wore a new bright purple dress today, and Yang Kai boasted that she looked like a morning glory.
The little girl exploded immediately, reached out and pinched his ears: "Tell me again who is Morning Glory!"
The conversation became more and more chaotic, and then they scratched each other, fighting like two kittens.
"My mother cut my nails yesterday!" Yang Kai was unconvinced: "I can beat her without cutting it!"
Jiang Wang remembered something, went to the warehouse to get a set of Starlight Tarot cards that had not yet been sold, and returned to hand him the small box.
"You play with her for a while, and I promise you won't quarrel."
Yang Kai was dubious: "Brother, you can't take advantage of the fire."
"What kind of money do you charge?" Jiang Wang patted him on the head: "I can be your father, you know."
The child didn't feel that he was being taken advantage of, so he took it in a daze.
Jiang Wang watched him carry his schoolbag and walk away with short legs, and suddenly found that he could trick Xiaoguan into calling him godfather.
Hey, taking advantage is too advantageous.
Just when it was time to go home for dinner, the guy from the courier company came to pick up the package on a small electric donkey.
"Boss! Yours!"
Jiang Wangma slipped away to say thank you, and found out that it was from Cizhou.
It is very thick to the touch, weighing seven or eight catties.
"Xingwang, you're home!"
The child was still playing with the jigsaw puzzle, hastily arranged the last few pieces before jumping off the stool: "Here we come!"
After half a year, the development of express delivery is better than they imagined.
One is the increase in Taobao stores.
In the past, manufacturers were looking for couriers to contract delivery business, but now many people watch TV and newspapers to move their minds, and they also start online stores one after another, taking advantage of the high efficiency of Sufeng Express to keep busy.
Previously, Sufeng only had online stores in provinces in the inland area. Soon after the meeting with Jiang Wang at the end of the year, the grand plan was launched, radiating all the hinterland cities, and the logistics network was becoming more and more abundant.
Cizhou is naturally included.
Mr. Jiang pushed this position after the annual meeting, preferring to live a happy life with less care.
When he was driving, he was thinking about the arrangements for the next year, and the child was dangling around with the package in his arms.
Suddenly sniffing the edge of the tape: "It smells so good."
"what?"
Peng Xingwang put his nose close to the package: "It's for food."
Jiang Wang: ...
When I got home and took the scissors to open it, it turned out that it was really a new year's gift and a thin letter from Du Wenjuan.
Bacon sausage, bacon marinated chicken, and even a large portion of sweet-scented osmanthus lotus root, all vacuum-packed, carefully wrapped and sent over in an expedited way.
"Forget, star:
I'm heavy and inconvenient to move now, but unfortunately I can't come to celebrate the New Year with you.
When Xing Xing was young, he loved to eat local pork sausage, but he got angry easily and got nosebleeds easily. Remember to watch him and don't eat too much.
The end of the year is approaching, and it's starting to snow here in Cizhou.
Brother, I know you must take good care of the stars, but you also remember to keep warm and soak your feet before going to bed at night.
I wish you a happy new year in advance, and I wish you all the best, peace and health.
Also, last time I saw that you like candied lotus root, I also sent some, remember to steam it before eating.
It's a long way to go, but I hope it doesn't change.
Wenjuanliu
Jiang forgot to finish reading the letter, and the child was still sniffing the sausage.
He realized that Du Wenjuan was due to give birth in March, and now she was probably a little heavy, and it was difficult to walk around.
Even so, remember to make a large amount of New Year's goods for them by yourself, and then ask someone to pack them and send them over.
For dinner, I naturally made fried sausages with edamame, fried goose eggs with chives, and cooked millet porridge, and everything was fine.
Ji Linqiu was left at school for a meeting, and didn't come back until 9:30, his lips pale from being hungry.
There were still vegetables and porridge left in Jiang Wang's stove, and he reheated them and sat down to eat with him.
Ji Linqiu was also very tired, so he came up and finished half a bowl of millet porridge, only to realize that Jiang Wang was still looking at him.
It looks like a wolf with a big tail, with bright eyes.
Jiang Wang and Xing Wang are always very similar, they can't hide things in their hearts.
When I am happy, the spring breeze blows my face and hums and sings randomly. When I am in a bad mood, I fall asleep under the quilt, and no one wants to talk to me.
It's really easy to guess.
"What's the matter, so happy?"
Ji Linqiu's chopsticks hovered, and as soon as he stretched them towards the sausage, Jiang Wang followed him.
Oh, it turned out to be about dinner.
The man brewed for a while, and said in a flat tone: "How about dinner today?"
Ji Linqiu became more discerning, and tasted another piece of sausage in front of him, seeing that he was still watching, he chewed slowly.
"Well... the sausage is very delicious." He spoiled him like a child: "The taste is tough, the meat is fresh and fragrant, and the craftsmanship is better than those sold in restaurants."
Jiang Wang immediately smiled proudly.
"Xingwang's mother gave it to her. She made it by herself and sent it. There is still a big box in the kitchen."
Ji Linqiu knew it in his heart, and felt that there was a New Year's atmosphere for a while.
He has long been used to living alone. Although the parents of the students will also send some New Year's goods, it has nothing to do with the family after all.
Jiang Wang's relationship with his family is getting better and better, and Ji Linqiu seems to have lifted a lot of shackles for no reason, and feels comfortable and happy.
Thinking of this, and tasting the sausage again, it seems that the seasoning and workmanship are indeed more exquisite than those outside, and it is very tasty.
Jiang Wang was in a good mood, glanced at Peng Xingwang who was still upstairs doing his homework, and whispered about himself to Ji Linqiu.
"Actually, the day before yesterday... It was a bit sudden to tell you that."
Ji Linqiu was still in the state of just getting off work, but when he heard him mention this abruptly, his breathing stopped invisibly.
"Why bring it up again?"
"I reflected on it later," Jiang Wang sat beside him watching him drink porridge contentedly, and said slowly, "I don't know why, but I thought about the past."
"When I was a child, I liked to write my name on the title page of the textbook."
"Title page?"
"Yeah." Jiang Wang almost forgot about his childhood.
"When I was in elementary school, because my family didn't pay for books, I used to go to the library to borrow other people's old textbooks for a long time."
"Later, when I was in the second grade, my grandpa came to visit me on weekends and found that I had no books or homework, so he took me all to buy new ones."
"That was the first time I wrote my name on the notebook."
It's like ownership is only formalized when the name lands on the title page.
And he really has something.
"Later, I gradually had a lot of books, and the company gave out free notebooks after I went to work. I still write my name habitually."
"It's like being afraid that they will suddenly run away."
Jiang Wang lowered his eyes and smiled, his angular appearance became tame and soft.
"Mr. Ji, I told you earlier, it seems that I was afraid that you would disappear."
Ji Linqiu was able to drink porridge and eat vegetables calmly, but when he heard this, his cheeks were hot, and it seemed unnatural even if he picked up vegetables.
"You're really..." He tapped Jiang Wang's forehead with the back of his chopsticks: "Who would say such things when others are eating."
Jiang Wang didn't hide, his forehead was tapped lightly, and his amber eyes were still looking at him.
"Am I naive." The man rubbed his nose: "I guess a little bit."
Ji Linqiu found that this person always likes to show his true feelings unexpectedly, and he can suddenly say a word of love when he drinks saliva.
"Not naive." Ji Linqiu whispered: "It's good that you look like this."
Ji Linqiu can say to the children affectionately and affectionately a hundred times that the teacher loves you too, but when he meets Jiang Wang, he is a little at a loss.
He envies him sometimes.
The corner of Jiang Wang's mouth twitched, and he glanced upstairs to see if Peng Xing was coming, then he pulled the chair close to Ji Linqiu and whispered to him.
The voice is deep and magnetic, as if trying to seduce someone deliberately.
"We're going to play in Yuhan this weekend, and we're still bringing that stinky kid with us."
"Although he must be a very bright light bulb, but we two are handsome and outstanding, and it's too eye-catching to go to the amusement park alone."
—Bringing a child is a perfect cover, both of them can pretend to be Peng Xingwang's brother.
Ji Linqiu suppressed a smile and nodded, just as Peng Xingwang ran down upstairs with an English workbook: "Teacher! I've finished writing! Check it out!"
"Xingwang," Teacher Ji complained without changing his expression, "Your brother wants to use you as a tool."
The child tilted his head: "Huh?"
The tool kid consciously followed on the weekend journey.
In addition, carry snacks, drinks and sliced fruits. After getting in the car, I will supervise whether the two adults are wearing seat belts.
Then fifteen minutes later, he snored like thunder and fell asleep on the spot.
In the first half of the journey, Ji Linqiu was driving, and when he left the city, he happened to meet a traffic light.
Jiang Wang listened to the loud snoring in the back seat, and suddenly raised his left hand, and moved it across to Ji Linqiu.
"I want to hold hands." He looked at him sideways: "Mr. Ji, hold me for a while."
Ji Linqiu blinked: "Are you chasing someone?"
Jiang Wang handed him his hand again: "Otherwise?"
Wang Bazi.
Ji Linqiu took a deep breath for a second, but the red light passed slowly for more than forty seconds.
He lowered his eyes and put his right hand on his palm.
The two overlapped and shook hands like comrades-in-arms, and the slightly hot palm of one covered the other's warmth finally.
Then the red light turned green, Ji Linqiu withdrew his hand and continued to drive forward.
Halfway through the drive, I couldn't help laughing and scolding him: "Fuck, what a fool."
Jiang Wang laughed foolishly: "Isn't it?"
