    Chapter 37

    In the cemetery east of Guanlan City, several cars parked quietly.

    Qin Zhuopu was wearing a dark suit and hugged a bouquet of elegant white chrysanthemums. The mother beside him, as one day for ten years, dedicated her deceased husband's favorite red rose.

    Eleven years have passed, and time has passed quickly, but somehow the grief has faded away.

    This year's mother did not cry silently, and seemed to be in a more relaxed mood.

    As for himself as a son of man, he feels extraordinarily good.

    For the first time, looking at the black and white photo on the tombstone, he smiled.

    Qin Zhuopu bent down and presented Bai Ju.

    He half-squatted, reached out and brushed away the gray stains on the photo, and said, "I came to see you before, but I never knew what to say to you or what to say." So on this day every year, he is always silent. Just waiting by my mother's side, afraid that she will be too sad.

    "This year, I want to tell you something. I have become a father, and the child is over six years old."

    Qin Zhuopu smiled and looked at the man on the tombstone. This man gave him no worries when he was alive. Like many happy children, he could just focus on his own interests and pursuits. At that time, my father even said that their family already lacked everything. If he liked reading and mathematics, it would be enough to be a great scholar in the future. He would make money.

    Really, except for the last words that came suddenly before his death, he didn't have the slightest disqualification.

    In the blink of an eye, he became a father himself.

    "Zizai is a fat boy. He is very sensible and considerate, and he is better than me." Thinking of Lu Zaizai, Qin Zhuopu smiled more gently, "Zizai is a caring little padded jacket, like Lu Ying, he always makes People's hearts are ironed. They are very attentive and kind. As long as they are with them, any troubles are not a problem."

    Hearing that the son beside him praised Lu Zizai and Lu Ying, it was true love from the heart.

    Mrs. Qin looked at the red rose in a trance, and then looked at the photo of her deceased husband on the tombstone. In the black-and-white photo, he was always smiling and elegant. don't know if he will get a little gratification when he hears his son's words, and Izumi knows it...

    The son will no longer revolve around her, accommodate her, and condone her.

    He has found someone who can be with him for the rest of his life.

    She shouldn't be stubborn in the past, what should be let go, it's time to let go.

    "Next year, I'll bring them to see you." Qin Zhuopu put down his promise, and he will work hard to gain Lu Ying's trust and dependence within a year, and be honest about the matter buried in his heart. And Cub, he couldn't wait to hear him call his father, not his uncle.

    He has no strong backing, but from now on, he will be the backing of his family.

    "Mr. Qin, you are so free and easy. If Mr. Lu knew about it, he would be very moved." In the office, Secretary Huang, who had just sent off the lawyer, sighed. It was written in black and white. Overnight, Mr. Qin's personal assets shrunk greatly, and it all turned around. To Lu Ying. How could this be said? I left some pocket money for myself to buy cigarettes, tsk tsk tsk... Such a rich and generous man, why didn't he take a fancy to him? Why didn't you come to a building near the water to get the moon first?

    Lucky Mr. Lu Ying, he can immediately rush to the rich list as long as he signs his name.

    Tsk tsk, no no no, my eyes are bleeding from jealousy. Secretary Huang touched the top of his sparse head and his belly, which was about to give birth, and suddenly the lemon essence was attached, and sour bubbles burst forth.

    Qin Zhuopu rolled his eyes and knew what the fat secretary was thinking. He couldn't help but say with disgust, "Be steady. How was your daughter's elementary school?"

    Secretary Huang immediately answered earnestly: "Although it is an old key point, but what should I say, I feel very sorry for my daughter, oh my mother, she is much more pitiful than when I was a child. I just played a big game and got into a key university without any problems. tired."

    "But my daughter is completely different now. Studying is a heavy task. She can't finish her homework every day. She makes up for the east and the west during the rest day. She is as busy as a spinning top at a young age. Sometimes I really want her to stop After studying, go home and rest. Hey, my wife is holding on tight, in fact, it is more stressful than children. I really don’t know why I am a parent now.”

    "So hard?" Qin Zhuopu frowned, turning his pen to recall that when he was a child, he went to school in a regular manner, and learned a lot of talents in a variety of ways, but he didn't feel tired. Learning is a must, and learning talents is also a first attempt, and then focus on learning what you like. On the other hand, learning languages ​​was a little tight. English, French, and German were almost the same period he studied, but after the tense period, he was fine. The key is that his father didn't force him so much, he would take him abroad to play when he had time, and combine work and rest. The teachers who teach him are also interesting teaching methods, my father said, stop if it feels boring.

    "That's right, the environment is like this now." Of course, it's limited to ordinary people who don't have mines at home. President Qin's worries are completely superfluous... Hehe, it's not easy for his children to go to school where they want to go to school. The big deal is to donate a building, if not enough, add another one, ^_^.

    Qin Zhuopu leaned back in his chair and frowned in thought.

    The summer vacation is coming soon, and he plans to take time out to take the cubs out to play before elementary school anyway. If it is less than a month, it is enough to make ten days.

    That kid...was too poor since he was a child. More than six years old, never took a train, never took a plane, never traveled to the province...not even played with decent genuine toys. When it comes to traveling, taking an airplane as a ship, his eyes are full of little stars of expectation... It's just such a simple wish, so many years late.

    Is there a more failed father than him?

    Over the years, he has not appeared in the matter of contributing money and efforts.

    Right now, he can't wait to give all the good things to Lu Ying to the cubs.

    If Lu Ying hadn't had a grudge in his heart, he desperately wanted to do everything.

    "President Qin..." Secretary Huang called out to Qin Zhuopu carefully. Suddenly, Mr. Qin changed his face, his expression was gloomy and regretful, and he didn't know what was bothering him.

    Could it be... regretting the transfer of property?

    Oops, it's too late to regret it now.

    "Help me collect information on the top primary schools, both public and private."

    "Row."

    In the afternoon, the sun is shining, Caifeng City is rainy in spring, and it is as cold as winter, but as long as the cold spring passes, in the following April, May, June, July, October, the sun will scorch you every month. !

    Is it hot? Are you happy?

    Lu Ying wiped the sweat from his forehead, and with his fair and delicate face buried in the neighborhood, he rushed into the bakery.

    "Alive..." Lu Ying let out a long sigh and took the empty food box to wash. Today, he stewed winter melon and pork ribs soup, and after returning home for dinner at noon, he sent a copy to Brother Yang who returned to the community to rest.

    Now that it has entered the hot May, Brother Yang's stomach is gaining momentum. Although Doctor Hu and Brother Yang themselves said that he is very stable and healthy now. But Lu Ying was still worried, because he was disappointed to find that Brother Yang was still alone... What kind of object, he had never seen. Ask Brother Yang, he always smiles without saying a word. Lu Ying was so distressed that he had Grandpa Lu to take care of him at that time, but Brother Yang was alone, and he had to do everything by himself, and there was no one to talk to to relieve his boredom.

    If it is far away, Lu Ying really may not have a way. Can live in a community, just away from a few buildings. He made delicious food, and of course he wanted to send a copy to Brother Yang.

    If he has free time, Lu Ying also wants to chat with Brother Yang to relieve his boredom. As a result... well, Brother Yang has many hobbies, so he is more peaceful. Every time Lu Ying goes there, Brother Yang is either reading a book in the sun in the yard, or painting under an umbrella, sometimes cutting flowers and arranging flowers, and occasionally seeing him playing chess alone...

    o(╥﹏╥)o, interesting people live a very interesting life even if they live alone!

    He also really wanted to be a leisurely adult like Brother Yang.

    The goal is lofty, and we must continue to work hard.

    "Little Brother Lu, are you really not going to the baker's examination this time?" Fei Qiqi handed Lu Ying a glass of ice water and looked at Lu Ying regretfully.

    Lu Ying shook his head and smiled reassuringly: "Go ahead, I'll find a way later. Anyway, let's practice the craft and gain experience." The staff in the store are preparing for the upcoming baker's certificate exam. Some are applying for the junior baker's exam. of the high-level entrance examination.

    But Lu Ying can't report, he has no education.

    The Caifeng city-level certificate requires a bottom line for high school graduation. In fact, it is not very useful to take out the certificate of the baker. After all, no one looks at your theory, only if you are good at craftsmanship. But if you go to a high-level place to apply for a job, the senior technician certificate is the stepping stone. Brother Yang is the highest-level technician in the country. Not only does he have to pass the test, but he has to work for more than 15 years. However, Brother Yang felt that it was all a gimmick. As long as he learned the best, it would still be popular to go out of the world. Take the certificate or not, who cares for you.

    It was somewhat regrettable that Lu Ying could not sign up, but he was not discouraged at all. He doesn't know whether he will go to high-end hotels and other places to apply for a job in the future, but if his level reaches that level in the future, no matter if he has a certificate or not, he will one day open a shop by himself!

    Fei Qiqi whispered: "Actually, Brother Lu, don't worry, as long as you ask someone to set up a fake sex, you don't have to do it too high, it can be used in secondary schools and high schools. The certificate is just a good-looking decoration, and occasionally it will be difficult to deal with. It's more convenient to have one. I'll tell you quietly, that's what Chen Xiaoan did. He's been certified for two years, so he's absolutely fine."

    Chen Xiaoan is a male employee in the hall. He is very skilled and diligent.

    Lu Ying didn't find it difficult to accept, but he himself... After all, he didn't want to do that.

    "Thank you, Brother Yang told me that it doesn't matter whether you take the test or not. I have to study hard."

    "Okay, okay. Come on, Brother Lu! You are always the best!" Fei Qiqi encouraged him.

    Lu Ying smiled, took out the lean pork with plum strips and started to chop, ready to fry a pot of fragrant pork floss.

    Within two hours, Lu Zaizai and his favorite Uncle Qin walked into the store hand in hand. The two were sweating profusely. When they came in, they found a seat and sat down, looking tired. Qin Zhuopu put down the fishing gear in his hand, walked to the front desk and asked Fei Qiqi to order two iced drinks and some snacks.

    Standing at the front desk, Qin Zhuopu looked at the workshop at the back and asked casually, "It looks like you are not busy now, right?"

    Fei Qiqi smiled: "business is relatively light in hot weather, but Brother Lu is very busy. Now he is responsible for most of the goods in the store. Mr. Qin, you can sit and wait. Today, Brother Lu is scheduled to rest at five o'clock. You can go."

    Qin Zhuopu nodded, didn't say much, took the food and enjoyed it with the children.

    Lu Zaicai, whose face was flushed with heat, was enjoying himself, "Today is too hot, and fishing is so tiring. Uncle, let's go to the slide in the afternoon, shall we?"

    Qin Zhuopu smiled helplessly. Before he came, the child shouted that he wanted to go fishing. After he arrived yesterday, he immediately prepared the fishing gear. Today, he brought the little guy to the lake to grab a spot for fishing. As a result, where can Lu Zaizai sit? It's too boring to scream and scream after half an hour of experience. When he caught the fish, Lu Zizai happily clapped his hands, but after a few minutes he let go of the fish again, saying that the fish is so pitiful... You are not angry.

    Who said to catch big fish together and come home to add food to Dad!

    The fickle brat.

    The most terrifying thing was that he had only been out for less than an hour in the morning, when he suddenly said that he was going to pull the stink! Qin Zhuopu was even more anxious than the child, because he couldn't find a toilet next to him, so he had no choice but to drag the child for a long distance to find a place. He was afraid that the stinky boy would pull his pants, but when he went to the toilet, the boy said no to pull it up again.

    He immediately asked, "Why not pull it?"

    Lu Zizai said as a matter of course: "Smelly has already run back, so I don't want to pull it."

    "..." He was so anxious that he was about to urinate, okay?

    Just wait, wait until the day he calls Dad, and promise to be beaten.

    "It's two o'clock now, it's already afternoon. You can play the slide after dinner, but I'll teach you how to make a math workbook when you get home. You will graduate from kindergarten in June, and you will be the big brother of the first grade in September. You have to take away your playfulness and focus on learning. Do you understand?" Qin Zhuopu handed the child a small cake and spoke to him seriously.

    Lu Zizai swallowed the cake and complained, "Uncle, why do you take me to do so much math every time you come here... Hmph, I hate math the most! Math is so difficult and boring."

    Qin Zhuopu took a breath and felt extremely congested, "Who told you to be so confused in mathematics that you can't count two digits. Listen to me, mathematics is not difficult at all, and it is very interesting to learn it well. Uncle likes mathematics the most, the most powerful The course is mathematics, how can you be poor in mathematics with me?" You must learn it well! How can his son be bad at math!

    Lu Zizai was not convinced: "I'm still a child, so of course I can't figure it out. Hmph, anyway, my father said that I'm the best, so it doesn't matter if I don't know math."

    "Math must be learned, very important."

    Lu Zizai shouted anxiously, "I don't like you anymore! I won't play with you in the future."

    The brat wants to threaten him? Qin Zhuopu snorted coldly: "Who said that during the summer vacation, I want to go with my uncle to take a plane, a boat, see the sea, see dolphins and big whales?"

    Lu Zizai suddenly stopped and looked at Qin Zhuopu hesitantly.

    Seeing the little guy's obvious movement, Qin Zhuopu added with a smile: "We can also play skydiving, play football and basketball, and ride horses in our family's manor. The little whites and blacks raised by Uncle Henry are very docile. Love them. I was able to ride out and race when I was your age and won a lot of fun prizes."

    Lu Zizai looked longing and full of admiration: "...Why is your family so fun? Your family is so big."

    "Silly child...my house is yours too." Qin Zhuopu sighed and smiled, "just tell me whether to go or not?"

    Lu Zaizai nodded: "I asked my father, and he said I can go on vacation with you. Then uncle, don't forget to bring me when you go to play, I, I will do math with you obediently. Don't be angry. ..." His tone was flattering, and he looked at Qin Zhuopu eagerly.

    As expected of his son, cute!

    "So, do you still like me?" Qin Zhuopu wiped the debris from the corner of his mouth with a tissue and asked with a smile.

    Lu Zizai nodded immediately, grinning and affirming loudly, "I like you the most, the most!"

    "Haha..." Qin Zhuopu laughed happily and was extremely happy.

    Lu Ying sneaked a glimpse of the big and small who were getting along well, and couldn't help sighing that Qin Zhuopu had been infected a lot by the cubs.

    After eating the bread, Lu Zizai and Qin Zhuopu went home to study mathematics. When Lu Ying got off work at five o'clock, Qin Zhuopu insisted on taking the two of them out for a hearty meal, and finally went to the Shen family's old house, where the family of three had a delicious meal. Before leaving, Lu Ying also packed a copy of Buddha Jumping Over the Wall and prepared to take it back for Brother Yang to eat.

    The three walked together in the community and slowly walked towards Brother Yang's house. When approaching Xiaoyanglou, Lu Ying was the first to hear the familiar music, "Spring River, Flowers and Moon Night" played by Erhu La. Lu Ying was taken aback. In a trance, he said, "Grandpa Lu?"

    He pricked up his ears to listen, but the music was gone again.

    Lu Ying couldn't help but speed up and walked towards Brother Yang's house. Yang Sigu opened the door to see him and smiled slightly: "I came back so fast, I thought you would be stuck in traffic. Thank you."

    Lu Ying tilted her head in thought, looking at Brother Yang's empty living room and closed courtyard door: "Brother Yang, were you playing the erhu just now?"

    Yang Sigu nodded: "Yeah, I'm a little tired after pulling for a while."

    "Oh..." Lu Ying exhaled, "I thought it was..." He scratched his head embarrassedly, and said in admiration, "I didn't expect you to even know the erhu, brother Yang, God, what else can you not? "

    Yang Sigu took the Buddha Jump over the Wall and laughed, "I know a lot, and I don't know a lot. Erhu has been known for a long time, and I rarely stay on the mountain, so you don't know. Speaking of which, Erhu was taught to me by your grandfather Lu. ...before you...were born."

    "Wow, so long! No wonder you are so good at pulling, much better than me. Grandpa also taught me the erhu, but I didn't learn well. Grandpa said that I was pulling the erhu like a saw, haha..." Lu Ying recalled In the past, I found that I was still happy most of the time. Although Grandpa Lu is gone, there is no need to always feel sad. He will always remember Grandpa Lu's goodness.

    Yang Sigu sneered, "Let's sit down recently, I happened to cut a lot of fresh fruit."

    Lu Ying shook her head and pointed to Qin Zhuopu and Lu Zizai behind her: "No, let's go for a walk, Zizai still wants to play on the slide. Bye bye Yang Ge."

    "Bye-Bye."

    Standing beside the playground to watch his son play, Qin Zhuopu said curiously, "I don't know that you can pull the erhu."

    "I don't know it's normal. I'm not good at pulling, and of course I don't show off."

    Qin Zhuopu laughed: "then I'll buy you an erhu next time, let me listen to it."

    "It's better to get another pair of glasses, give me a broken bowl, and I'll go to the bottom of the overpass to pull down "The Liang Zhu" hahaha..." Lu Ying laughed.

    "..." Qin Zhuopu suddenly! Taking advantage of the darkness, he pinched Lu Ying's ass: "Naughty in front of me all day! I don't know how well-behaved you are with Yang Geji Ge Doctor Hu. Let's see how I clean up you at night."

    With tears in her eyes, Lu Ying clutched her butt and muttered, "It hurts to death! How many times have I told you not to pinch but to touch."

    A paw immediately covered it and touched it.

    "How is it, it doesn't hurt, right?" Qin Zhuopu smirked.

    Lu Ying stared at him fiercely: "see how I clean up you at night!"

    "If you have any moves, you can use them." Qin Zhuopu's smile deepened and his throat tightened. The time of each gathering is too short, often only one night, this time two days and two nights are earned. During the day, I have fun and study with my children, and I have fun with Lu Ying at night... The schedule is very tight.

    But this is far from his ideal of a better life.

    He wants a family of three to live in a comfortable house. Every morning when he opens his eyes, he can see his lover beside his pillow. . Have dinner in their company, watch TV together, go for a walk, do anything together.

    In the middle of the night, Qin Zhuopu kissed Lu Ying's ear again and again, and asked him softly, "Take the cub to study in Guanlan City, shall we live together?"

    The trembling Lu Ying dodged and replied in a low voice, "We are living together now, and this is my home."

    "...Cubs would be better off reading there."

    Lu Ying turned his head: "Although I'm not as good as you, and I can't give you good conditions, we have come here well over the years. I have no plans to change the environment. Besides, I like my current job very much and want to keep doing it."

    Qin Zhuopu sighed helplessly: "don't be angry, I'm not forcing you."

    "You feel unhappy now?" Lu Ying asked him back.

    Qin Zhuopu shook his head: "I'm greedy and want to see you every day. I want to live with you."

    Lu Ying was silent, and said for a long time: "...I know it's very hard for you to run around. But I can't go to school yet, I want to learn better, when I have the ability to open my own shop. I... will also consider Go to your side and start over. Maybe a year or two, okay?"

    Qin Zhuopu smiled and hugged Lu Ying tightly, "I believe in you."

    Lu Ying grinned and pushed back, and said with a show of strength, "Lie down, I'm going to ride a horse!"

    "..."

    This is so, so cute! (*^▽^*)

    In the blink of an eye, Lu Zizai's kindergarten life was completely over, and the hot summer vacation was ushered in.

    Qin Zhuopu arrived as scheduled and flew overseas with the child, preparing to be a full-time dad for 15 days!

    Lu Ying is busy in the store every day, and she takes time to video chat with Qin Zhuopu. The other party sends back countless pictures of play. Lu Ying is very comforted when she sees the happy smiling face of the child. The closer he gets, the more trust, and the more he goes on like this, one day he will accept the fact that one more father loves him.

    "Little Brother Lu... an aunt is looking for you." Fei Qiqi walked into the workshop and whispered to Lu Ying. She always felt that the well-dressed aunt... was a little unapproachable. After I came in and ordered something to drink and eat, I said I was looking for Lu Ying. It was clear that they came to Lu Ying.

    Lu Ying was stunned for a moment, and immediately thought of who was coming.

    He bent down and washed his hands carefully, wiped them off slowly, and walked out.

    The author has something to say: allergies are almost completely cured! circling

    small theater

    Passerby A: heard that the surnamed Lu has never read a book and has no talent.

    Passerby B: It looks good.

    Lu Ying: Did you hear me? People say I can't do anything. What do you like about me?

    President Qin: Nonsense, you obviously know how to bake, pull erhu, and arrange flowers, and especially, horse riding!

    Lu Ying: That's your luck!

    President Qin: Of course (*^▽^*)
