On How Sons Raise Fathers

Wang Yang came back from the balcony with sheets and blankets in his arms. Seeing Wang Chao still standing at the door of the room, he asked, "Is there anything else Wang Chao can do? Let's go to bed early."

"Father." Wang Chao stopped Wang Yang who was about to leave, and said, "Qujing's mother signed up for a cram school for me, and the class will start next week."

"Qujing's mother? A cram school?" Wang Yang was a bit surprised. Wang Yang still had a memory of Qujing's child. If he remembered correctly, he should be the child Wang Yang met when he returned home yesterday.But in Wang Yang's memory, his family Wang Chao doesn't seem to need to go to cram school.Who let Wang Chao always give Wang Yang the impression of being a good baby, from study to life, there is nothing for Wang Yang to worry about, Wang Yang really doesn't think his family Wang Chao needs to go to cram school after the high school entrance examination, and finally look forward to the two-month summer vacation , Having fun is the truth. Wang Yang has taught high school students for more than ten years, but he knows that the summer vacation of high school students is about two weeks.

Wang Chao simply said a few words to Wang Yang, and then added, "Qu Jing said that his mother has already paid my tuition fees for me."

Wang Yang frowned, "If you think it's necessary, go and ask the teacher how much the tuition is, and you can return it to Qujing's mother when you have time. If you don't want to go, don't go. You can read at home or go out to play." .”

Wang Chao nodded in agreement and said good night.

Wang Yang went back to the room and made the mattress, leaned on the head of the bed to call Leng Xi, and was picked up after a few rings, but the voice over there was Qin Lin's.

"Little Wang Wang, why, you didn't call me, but called our little Xixi instead?" Before Wang Yang could reply, Qin Lin said to himself, "Hmph, anyway I will answer whoever you call, it doesn’t make any difference.”

"Where's Leng Xi?" Wang Yang ignored Qin Lin's nonsense and called for Leng Xi by name.

"Take care of your old man in that room, he has no time to talk to you."

Wang Yang stopped talking, and after a while the call was transferred to Leng Xi, "Wang Yang, what's the matter?"

"Can you check something for me? It's related to Li Shengqiang. I may be a little tight on time. Li Shengqiang will be transferred to the provincial capital next month." Wang Yang suppressed the irritability in his heart, and even had a place in his heart that he hoped that Leng Xi There is no such ability.

Qin Lin on the other side of the phone saw Leng Xi's expression startled, opened his mouth and asked silently, "What happened?"

Leng Xi shook his head slightly, and said to Wang Yang, "I will try my best."

Wang Yang thanked him and hung up the phone. He put down his phone and let out a long sigh. Deep in his heart, Wang Yang felt that it was not suitable for him to directly confront Li Shengqiang at this time. Wang Yang didn't know how deep Li Shengqiang's foundation in Guandan City was. , but according to his enthusiasm for becoming a deputy department-level cadre at a young age, he must not be able to be shaken by a small shrimp like Wang Yang.

But for the sake of those children, Wang Yang squeezed the mobile phone in his hand. Those underage children who were supposed to go to school, even if this matter had nothing to do with Li Shengqiang, his conscience demanded that he must give these children an explanation.

The next day was Saturday, and it was rare for Wang Yang to indulge himself to sleep a little longer, waking up half an hour later than on weekdays.Wang Chao went downstairs to make breakfast lightly, but was so startled by the sudden ringing of the doorbell that he almost jumped up.

Afraid of waking Wang Yang up, Wang Chao hurriedly opened the door, facing Qu Jing who came to the door repeatedly uninvited, Wang Chao was speechless.

Qu Jing also knew that he was not welcome when he came to the door early in the morning, so he rubbed his head and said, "Wang Chao, has your phone number changed? I can't get through to your home number."

Wang Chao signaled him to come in and close the door, and said softly: "The previous landline number is no longer used. There is no time to install a phone here, so there is no number for now."

Seeing Wang Chao's gentle movements, Qu Jing also asked in a low voice, "Is your father at home?"

"Well, I'm still sleeping and haven't woken up." Wang Chao replied.

Qu Jing blinked his eyes, as if he hadn't expected this result, and said, "Did I come at the wrong time?"

Wang Chao's expression of "you know it's all right" almost made Qu Jing retreat through the crack of the door behind him.

"Then, I'll go back first, and I'll come back after your father gets up?" Qu Jing asked.Qu Jing was a little afraid of teachers since he was a child. He said that his ideal is to grow up to be a glorious teacher. The winter and summer vacations are a small part of the reason. , Maybe the children in the rebellious period have a little idea of ​​subverting the world, and I am afraid that it is only reflected in a small thing. No matter what is subverted, they will think that they have a sense of accomplishment.

Wang Chao was not only speechless, but also rolled his eyes, is it necessary?After coming here, and going back again, Wang Chao really felt that Qu Jing was idle at home and had nothing to do. Mother Qu's decision to let him go to Lao Shizi's cram school was really right.

"Have you had breakfast?" Wang Chao asked, changing the subject.

"I've eaten." The Qu family has strict requirements on work and rest time, and Qujing won't sleep in on weekends, even though it's a holiday now, and there is no distinction between working days and rest days.But Qu Jing recalled the food made by Wang Chao that he ate two days ago, and said again, "I don't eat much, I'm hungry again after walking here."

Wang Chao just wanted to slap the iron pot in his hand on Qu Jing's forehead.

Wang Yang came downstairs in casual attire. He didn't expect to see some of Wang Chao's classmates coming to his door early in the morning.

"Hello, Teacher Wang." Qu Jing still called Wang Yang by the same name when he was a tutor in the Qu family. No wonder he was scared before. Even though Wang Yang no longer served as a teacher, Qu Jing was still afraid of him.

Wang Yang saw that Qu Jing's expression was a bit unnatural, and asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet..." Qu Jing immediately changed his words and said, "The last time I came here, Wang Chao's cooking was so delicious, today I came here to eat."

Does Wang Chao cook delicious food?Wang Yang glanced at his son who was struggling in the kitchen, and thought to himself, could it be that he is in the midst of blessings and does not know his blessings?But he really thinks that Wang Chao's cooking is pretty average. Of course, it's a little bit better than his own, and he doesn't see Wang Chao doing any tricks when he usually eats. Take two hands.

Thinking of this, Wang Yang felt a little awkward, like Qu Jing received a special reception from Wang Chao, and he, Wang Chao, only treated this side as if he was doing daily tasks. This is a typical differential treatment.

Wang Chao in the kitchen didn't expose Qu Jing's lies, no matter how delicious his cooking was, he wouldn't make Qu Jing rush to the door early in the morning. Wang Chao didn't even bother to ask Qu Jing the real reason for coming here. How could Qu Jing lie for a while.

It wasn't until Qu Jing and Wang's father and son sat at the dining table and had breakfast together that he really regretted that he said he didn't have breakfast.This feeling of being caught between father and son is really enough.It was rare for Wang's family to have a guest, and Wang Yang took good care of Qu Jing, which was reflected in the way Wang Yang tried his best to pick up vegetables for Qu Jing. Qu Jing said that he had already eaten two poached eggs!

"That Mr. Wang, I have a small appetite, and I can't eat so much."

Wang Chao's breakfast is very light, with porridge and side dishes, and poached eggs are the meat dishes on the table.There were four eggs left in the house, and Wang Chao wanted to save them until the weekend to eat with Wang Yang alone for two days, but Qujing came this day, so he simply made all poached eggs.Wang Yang naturally gave the extra one to Qu Jing.Qu Jing put down the bowl and chopsticks, expressing that he was really full, or Wang Yang could serve him a bowl of porridge.

"Well, Wang Chao, I'll go to your room and wait for you first." When Wang's family was having dinner, the atmosphere on the dining table was too weird, Qu Jing said that he would never come to Wang's house at dinner time to make fun of it.

In fact, the father and son didn't know what to say when they faced the extra stranger, so they simply didn't speak and just bowed their heads to eat.Wang Yang also felt that his son should be given some free space. After finishing breakfast quickly, he said, "I have something to do when I go out, so you can play around. Don't wait for me at noon."

Hearing Wang Yang's words, Wang Chao wished he could go upstairs and beat Qu Jing violently. It would be a good opportunity to share the weekend with his father, but he was disturbed by Qu Jing.Wang Chao is sure that before meeting Qu Jing, Wang Yang had absolutely no intention of going out.Seeing Wang Yang go upstairs to change clothes and go out, Wang Chao almost dropped the bowl in his hand.

When Qu Jing saw Wang Chao again, it was when Wang Chao appeared at the door of the room with a serious face.

Qu Jing asked silently, did he really do something wrong, he wouldn't die miserably, right? "Well, Wang Chao, your father has gone out?"

Wang Chao nodded, but did not speak.

"Well, I just came here to tell you where we were in class yesterday."

Wang Chao continued to nod.

Qu Jing looked left and right, and asked, "Wang Chao, do you have your high school textbooks? Let me mark them out for you."

"Can you still remember whether you took English or math yesterday?" Wang Chao asked.

"It seems that I took English first, and then I took mathematics. No, it seems that yesterday I only took mathematics, and the English teacher asked for leave..." Qu Jing suddenly understood Wang Chao's question, laughed twice, and flattered him, " So what, Wang Chao, I was really forced to go out today, Wang Chao, you must forgive me."

"Is there anyone who can force you?" Wang Chao asked back, obviously not believing Qu Jing's refusal.

"Of course, my brother is one." Qu Jing said with a gloomy face, "My brother insisted that his room on the third floor was too hot, so he must sleep with me at night, wouldn't it be hotter if two people hugged each other to sleep?" ? Besides, I don’t have an air conditioner in my room, so I’m too hot to sleep in.”

"What does that have to do with you coming to our house?"

Qu Jing laughed again, and said, "I told my brother that you are just a small refrigerator, and your body temperature has been low. I came to you to escape the heat."

The author has something to say: #坪爹# is used to satirize, ridicule or complain about his behavior of not filling in or filling in extremely slowly all the year round.There is also a local saying in Jinan, Shandong: cheating fathers, playing with grandpas.In fact, it is very easy to understand "cheating father" in Chinese. Die means "Lao Tzu" in Chinese, and "Lao Tzu" is also a kind of domineering way of saying it.Cheating father = cheating Laozi, which means "cheating me".
