Good Luck in the Year of the Pig

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

Qin Zhuopu was wearing a dark suit, holding a bouquet of elegant white chrysanthemums.The mother beside him, for ten years like a day, dedicated to the dead husband's favorite red rose.

It's been 11 years, and time flies, 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, who was born as the Son of Man, he felt extraordinarily good.

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

Qin Zhuopu bent down and offered the white chrysanthemum.

He squatted halfway, reached out and brushed away the ashes on the photo, and said, "When I came to see you before, I always didn't know what to say to you. What can I say?" So every year on this day, he was silent forever.Just wait by my mother's side, afraid that she will be too sad.

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

Qin Zhuo smiled and looked at the man on the tombstone. This man made him have no worries when he was alive. Like many happy children, he can just focus on his own pursuits.At that time, my father even said that their family had everything. If he liked reading and mathematics, he would be enough to be a university student in the future. He would come to make money.

Really, except for the sudden last words before his death, he has nothing unqualified.

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

"Zaizai is a fat boy. He is very sensible and caring, better than me." Thinking of Lu Zaizai, Qin Zhuopu smiled more gently, "Zaizai is a caring little padded jacket. They are very warm-hearted. They are very careful and kind. As long as you are with them, you won’t have any troubles.”

Listening to the son beside him admiring Lu Zaizai and Lu Ying, it is true love from the heart.

Mrs. Qin stared at the red rose in rapt attention, and then at the photo of her deceased husband on the tombstone. In the black and white photo, he was always smiling and elegant.I don't know if he will feel a little comfort when he hears his son's words...

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

He has found someone who can be with him for a lifetime.

She shouldn't be obsessed with the past, she should let go, it's time to let go.

"Next year, I'll bring them to see you." Qin Zhuopu let go of his promise, he will work hard to gain Lu Ying's trust and dependence for a year, and be honest with him about the matter buried in his heart.And Zai Zai, he couldn't wait to hear him call him dad instead of uncle.

He doesn't have a 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 knows, he will be very touched." In the office, Secretary Huang, who had just sent away the lawyer, kept sighing. In black and white, Mr. Qin's personal assets shrunk overnight. Give it to Lu Ying.How to say it, I left some pocket money for cigarettes for myself, tsk tsk tsk... such a rich and generous man, why didn't he fall in love with him?Why didn't you come to a place close to the water to win the moon first?

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

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

Rolling his eyes, Qin Zhuopu knew what the fat secretary was thinking, and he couldn't help but say in disgust, "Take it easy. How is your daughter's primary school?"

Secretary Huang immediately replied seriously: "Although it is an old key point, after all, I feel sorry for my daughter, oh my mother, she is much more pitiful than when I was a child. I just played big and went smoothly to enter a key university. I didn't think it was a problem tired."

"But my daughter is completely different now. Studying is a heavy load. She can't finish her homework every day. On the rest day, she just fills in the east and the west. She is as busy as a spinning top at a young age. Sometimes I really want her not to I'm studying, let's go home and rest. Hey, my wife is holding on tightly. In fact, it is more stressful than the children. I really don't know why I am a parent now."

"So hard?" Qin Zhuopu frowned, turned the pen and recalled that when he was a child, he went to school well-behaved and learned a lot of talents, but he didn't feel tired.Learning is what you should do, and learning talents is to try first, and then focus on learning what you like.On the contrary, learning languages ​​is a little bit stressful. He learned English, French, and German at about the same time, but after the stressful period, it’s okay.The key is that his father didn't force him much, and took him abroad to play when he had time, combining work and rest.The teachers who taught him also had an interesting way of teaching, and his father said, stop if you feel bored.

"Isn't it? The current environment is like this." Of course, it is limited to ordinary people who don't have mines at home.Mr. Qin's worries are completely unnecessary... Hehe, it's not easy for his children to go to school. At worst, donate a building, and if it's not enough, buy another one, ^_^.

Qin Zhuopu leaned back in the chair, frowned and thought.

The summer vacation is coming soon, and he plans to find time to take Zai Zai out to play before elementary school anyway. It's less than a month, ten days is enough.

That child... had a hard time growing up.More than six years old, never took a train, never took a plane, never went out of the province...not even played with a decent genuine toy.When it comes to going on a trip, taking a plane or 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?

In these years, he did not show up for the matter of contributing money and effort.

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

If it weren't for Lu Ying's grievances, he was eager to take care of everything.

"President Qin..." Secretary Huang carefully called Qin Zhuopu.All of a sudden, Boss Qin's face changed. He was gloomy, with a regretful and annoyed expression. He didn't know what he was worrying about.

Is it possible... Regret 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 brightly, Caifeng City is rainy in spring and as cold as winter, but as soon as the cold spring passes, the following April, May, June, July, October, and the moon will be hung with a big sun to roast you !

Is it hot?Are you happy?

Lu Ying wiped off the sweat from her brow, staring at her fair and delicate face as she passed through the neighborhood and rushed into the bakery.

"Come back to life..." Lu Ying let out a long breath, and took the empty food box to wash.Today he stewed winter melon pork ribs soup, and after returning home for lunch at noon, he sent a copy to Brother Yang who had returned to the community to recuperate.

Now that it has entered the hot month of May, Brother Yang's stomach is getting stronger day by day.Although Dr. Hu and Brother Yang 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 living alone... He had never seen any object.When I asked Brother Yang, he always smiled and said nothing.Lu Ying was very distressed. He was still taken care of by Grandpa Lu at that time, but Brother Yang was alone, and he had to do everything by himself, and there was no one to talk with him to relieve his boredom.

If it is far away, Lu Ying really may not have a solution.But living in a community is only a few buildings away.He made something delicious, of course he wanted to send a copy to Brother Yang.

If there is spare time, Lu Ying also wants to chat with Brother Yang to relieve boredom.As a result...well, Brother Yang has a lot of hobbies, so he is more quiet in the first place.Every time Lu Ying passed by, Brother Yang was either basking in the sun and reading a book in the yard, or drawing under the umbrella, sometimes cutting and arranging flowers, and occasionally seeing him playing chess alone...

o(╥﹏╥)o, interesting people can live interesting lives even if they live alone!

He really wants to be a leisurely adult like Brother Yang.

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

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

Lu Ying shook her head and smiled reassuringly: "Go ahead, I'll figure out a way later. Anyway, let's practice the craft and accumulate experience first." The employees in the store are preparing for the upcoming baker certificate examination, some apply for the junior baker exam, and some high-level applicants.

But Lu Ying couldn't report, he didn't have a degree.

Caifeng city-level certificates require a baseline of high school graduation.In fact, the baker's certificate is of little use. After all, no one will look at your theory, but only look at your craftsmanship.But if you go to a high-level place to apply for a job, the senior technician certificate is a stepping stone.Brother Yang is the highest-level technician in China. Not only does he have to pass the skills, but he also has to work for more than 15 years.But Brother Yang thinks it's all a gimmick, as long as he learns to the extreme, he is still welcome to go abroad.Who cares about you whether you take the certificate or not.

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

Fei Qiqi whispered: "Actually, you don't have to worry, Brother Lu. You just need to ask someone to do a fake one. It doesn't have to be too high, it can be used in technical secondary schools and high schools. The exam certificate is just for display, and it is difficult to deal with occasionally. It’s more convenient to have one. Let me tell you quietly, that’s what Chen Xiaoan did. He’s got his certificate for two years, so he’s absolutely fine.”

Chen Xiaoan is a male employee in the hall, he is very skilled and hardworking.

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

"Thank you, Brother Yang told me, it doesn't matter if you take the exam or not now. I still have to study hard."

"Okay, okay. Brother Lu, come on! You will always be the best!" Fei Qiqi encouraged him.

Lu Ying smiled, took out the plum sticks and began to chop the lean meat, preparing to fry a pot of fragrant meat floss.

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

Standing at the front desk, Qin Zhuopu looked towards the back room and asked casually, "It seems that you are not busy now, are you?"

Fei Qiqi smiled: "Business is relatively slow in hot weather, but Little Brother Lu is very busy, and now he is responsible for most of the products in the store. Mr. Qin, you can sit and wait. Little Brother Lu has a rest today, five o'clock Just go."

Qin Zhuopu nodded, didn't say much, and took some food to enjoy with the child.

Lu Zaizai, who was blushing from the heat, ate his food, "It's too hot today, and I'm so tired from fishing. Uncle, let's go to the slide in the afternoon, shall we?"

Qin Zhuopu smiled helplessly. Before he came, the kid was clamoring to go fishing. He rushed over yesterday and immediately prepared his fishing gear. Today, he brought the little guy to the lake to grab a spot to fish. As a result, Lu Zaizai couldn't sit still. It's boring to whine and yell after half an hour of experience.When he caught the fish, Lu Zaizai clapped his hands happily, but after a few minutes, he released the fish again, saying that the fish is so pitiful... Are you angry?

Who said to catch big fish together and go home to give dad an extra meal!

Fickle brat.

The most frightening thing was that he had only been out for less than an hour in the morning, and he suddenly said that he was going to stinky by the lake!Qin Zhuopu was even more anxious than the child, because he couldn't find a toilet nearby, so he had no choice but to drag the child a long way before he found a place.He was afraid that the brat would pull his pants, but when he went to the toilet, the kid refused to pull it up as if nothing had happened.

He immediately asked, "Why didn't you pull it?"

Lu Zaizai took it for granted: "Chouqiu has already run back, so I don't want to pull."

"..." He was so anxious that he almost peed, okay?

Just wait, wait until the day he calls daddy, I promise to give him a good beating.

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

Lu Zaizai swallowed the cake in one gulp, and complained aggrievedly: "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 his heart was filled with suffocation, "Who told you that you are so confused in mathematics, you can't even count two digits. Listen to me, mathematics is not difficult at all, and it is very interesting to learn. Uncle likes mathematics the most, the most powerful The course is mathematics, how can you be poor in mathematics if you have me?" You must learn well!How can his son be bad at math!

Lu Zaizai was unconvinced: "I'm still a kid, so of course I can't figure it out. Humph, anyway, my dad said I'm the best, and it doesn't matter if I don't know math."

"Mathematics must be known, it is very important."

Lu Zaizai yelled anxiously: "If you do this again, I won'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, you want to go to fly, take a boat, watch the sea, see dolphins and big whales with your uncle?"

Lu Zaizai stopped talking immediately, and looked at Qin Zhuopu hesitantly.

Seeing that the little guy was obviously moved, 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 white and little black raised by Uncle Henry are very docile, you will definitely Loved them. I was able to ride a horse out to races when I was your age and won lots of fun prizes."

Lu Zaizai looked yearning and full of admiration: "...Why do you have so many interesting things in your house? Your house is so big."

"Stupid boy... My house is also yours." Qin Zhuopu sighed and smiled: "Just tell me if you want to go or not?"

Lu Zaizai nodded blankly: "I asked my father, and he said that I can go on vacation with you. Uncle, don't forget to bring me when you go to play. I, I will do math with you obediently. Don't be angry ..." With a flattering tone, 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 Zaizai nodded immediately, and affirmed loudly with a smile: "I like you the most, the most, the most!"

"Haha..." Qin Zhuopu laughed heartily, incomparably carefree.

Lu Ying sneaked a glimpse of the harmoniously getting along with each other, and couldn't help but sigh that Qin Zhuopu had been infected a lot by Zai Zai, and now he was laughing silly at every turn, just like a silly father_.

After eating the bread, Lu Zaizai obediently and Qin Zhuopu went home to study math.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 hearty meal.Before leaving, Lu Ying packed a portion of Buddha Jumping Over the Wall, and prepared to take it back for Brother Yang to eat.

The three of them walked together in the neighborhood, and walked slowly towards Brother Yang's house. When they approached the Xiaoyang Building, Lu Ying was the first to hear the familiar music, which was "Moonlight Night on the Spring River" played by the erhu. Lu Ying was startled suddenly, Dazed: "Grandpa Lu?"

He pricked up his ears to listen carefully, but the music died away again.

Lu Ying couldn't help speeding up and walked towards Brother Yang's house. Yang Sigu opened the door and saw 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 the empty living room and the closed courtyard door of Brother Yang's house: "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 breathed out, "I thought it was..." He scratched his head embarrassingly, and said in admiration: "I didn't expect Brother Yang, you can even know the erhu, my God, what else do you know? "

Yang Sigu took the Buddha Jumping Wall and said with a smile: "I know a lot, and I don't know a lot. I knew the erhu a long time ago, and I seldom stay on the mountain so you don't know. Speaking of which, your grandpa Lu taught me the erhu before. ...before you... were born."

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

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

Lu Ying shook her head, pointing to Qin Zhuopu and Lu Zaizai behind her: "No, let's go for a walk, Zaizai also wants to go on the slide. Goodbye, Brother Yang."

"Bye-Bye."

Standing by the playground and watching his son play, Qin Zhuopu said curiously: "You can play the erhu, I didn't know."

"I don't know, it's normal. I don't pull well, so of course I don't show off."

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

"It's better to have another pair of glasses, give me a broken bowl, and I'll play "Blessings of Love" under the overpass hahaha..." Lu Ying laughed.

"..." Qin Zhuopu suddenly!Taking advantage of the darkness, he pinched Lu Ying's butt: "Be naughty in front of me all day long! I don't know how well-behaved you are with Brother Yang. Brother Hu. See how I deal with 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 about it, doesn't it hurt?" Qin Zhuopu smirked.

Lu Ying stared at him viciously: "Look at how I deal with you at night!"

"If you have any moves, just use them." Qin Zhuopu's smile deepened, and his throat tightened a bit.The time for each meeting is too short, usually only one night, this time two days and two nights are considered to be earned.Play and study with the children during the day, and play with Lu Ying at night...the schedule is very tight.

But this is far from the good life he had dreamed of.

He wants a family of three to live in a comfortable house. Every morning when he opens his eyes, he can see his lover next to his pillow. He can have breakfast with his lover and children, send them to school together, and see their smiling faces when they come home from get off work every day. .Enjoy dinner, watch TV, go for a walk, whatever, in their company.

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

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

"... It would be better for Zai Zai to study there."

Lu Ying turned her head: "Although I am not as good as you, I can't give Zai Zai good conditions, but we have come here these years. I have no plans to change the environment. Besides, I like my current job very much and want to continue."

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

"Do you feel unhappy now?" Lu Ying asked him back.

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

Lu Ying was silent, and said for a long time: "...I know that it is very hard for you to run around. But I can't become a teacher yet, and I want to learn better. When I am able to open my own shop. I... will also consider Go to your side and start over. About a year or two, okay?"

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

Lu Ying smiled back and pressed back, flaunting her might, "Lie down, I'm going to ride a horse!"

"..."

This is so, so cute! (*^▽^*)

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

Qin Zhuopu arrived as scheduled, and flew overseas with the child, preparing to be a full-time baby daddy for [-] days!

Lu Ying is busy in the store every day, and when she finds time, she chats with Qin Zhuopu through video chat, and the other party sends back countless photos of playing. Lu Ying looks at the child's happy smiling face, and feels very comforted in her heart. Zai Zai loves Qin Zhuopu more and more. The closer he is, the more he trusts, the more he will accept the fact that one more father loves him one day.

"Brother Lu...an auntie is looking for you." Fei Qiqi walked into the workshop and called Lu Ying softly.She always felt that the unusually dressed aunt... was a little unapproachable.I came in and ordered something to drink and eat, and said I was looking for Lu Ying.It was clearly aimed at Lu Ying.

Lu Ying was taken aback, and immediately thought of who was coming.

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

The author has something to say: almost all allergies are cured!circle around

small theater

Passerby A: I heard that the man surnamed Lu has no education and no talent.

Passerby B: She looks good.

Lu Ying: Did you hear that, people say I don’t know anything, what do you like about me?

Mr. Qin: Nonsense, you can obviously bake, play the erhu, arrange flowers, and especially horseback riding!

Lu Ying: That's your luck!

President Qin: Of course (*^▽^*)
