For this work, Qin Songxue lost a full three or four catties, and did not sleep well for several days and nights. When she closed her eyes, all she could think about was the "Chinese Character Classic" in red letters on a black background.

All kinds of fonts are written on the same piece of rice paper. If it is not handled properly, the whole work will become extremely messy. Few people do this in contemporary times or even in ancient times. The only famous one is Yan Zhenqing's "Poems of General Pei". There is a monument built by Cao Zi of the Han Dynasty, and Zeng Yunqing told Qin Songxue that only one master of Chinese studies surnamed Wen has tried this trick, and no one else has tried it, including them. None of them thought of creating in this form.

The color combination of red and black is very impactful, but it does not appear to be very fancy. The National Exhibition does not advocate complexity.

Gold powder is used to slightly modify the frame, as an embellishment, without overwhelming the host.

Qin Songxue was fascinated by the evolution from oracle bones to Tang Kai. The two fonts merged and deformed, gradually changed, and transitioned... What he wrote was thousands of years of civilization.

The beauty of Chinese characters is like a general scolding Fang Qiu, or like a beauty dancing in neon clothes and feathers, which is amazing.

When stamping her own seal, Tan Songxue took out her mobile phone with trembling hands and sent a picture to Chen Kezhi, telling him that her work was completed.

Qin Songxue didn't dare to show this work to others. Only Chen Kezhi and Zeng Yunqing knew the content. The whole process of creation was carried out in Zeng Yunqing's home, which was completely closed.He didn't even tell Father Tan and Yi Xiuyun how to create this work, he wanted to keep the surprise at the last moment.

After the work was sent, Tan Songxue happily took the high-speed train back to N City on the weekend just to have sex with Chen Kezhi. Chen Kezhi knew that he was happy, so he specially took him to the surrounding attractions for two nights. Don't want to go back to school.

It was a very pleasant time.

But when the results came out two months later, Tan Songxue was dumbfounded.

second prize.

Zeng Yunqing told him calmly that the winner of the national first prize this time is a girl from province G, and she wrote a sentence of imprisonment, which is only eighteen today.

Qin Songxue failed.Lost to a man whose name he had never heard.

There are only a handful of contemporary female calligraphers, and the most accomplished calligraphers are almost all men. Women are very weak in this art, because it requires a bold style and innovative courage.Most of the female calligraphers are conservative and cautious, and their characters are beautiful without a sense of domineering, which is very unfavorable for participating in the National Exhibition.Because from ancient times to the present, what everyone pursues in calligraphy is grandeur, so a long time ago, "Cao Quanbei" was not highly praised, but criticized as feminine.

The first prize winner in province G is a dark horse, and a genius who is only eighteen years old.Since the first calligraphy exhibition, there has never been such a young contestant winning the prize.

Zeng Yunqing said that if he didn't know the names of the contestants, when they saw the works, they would probably think that they were the secretary-general of a provincial book association, a man in his 40s and [-]s with a lot of life experience.

In her writing, there is no trace of weakness and artificiality, only the vicissitudes and chills that come to her face, the grass is like a group of demons dancing wildly, and it is like a million heroes standing in battle.

She doesn't even need to carefully design the paper, typesetting, and color matching, as long as she writes the words she wants to write, and fills the entire paper, she can defy the crowd.

It only takes a pen to defeat thousands of competitors.

This is a real master, regardless of her age.

After Tan Songxue read her work, she was convinced.

His skills are still not enough, and his skills are not as good as others.Compared with that one, his works are too naive, even grandstanding.

In the past, Chen Kezhi told others that there are people outside and there is a sky beyond the sky. At that time, he didn't take it seriously, thinking that as long as he worked hard, he would definitely become the best.But now I have to agree with Chen Kezhi's words.Hard work alone is not enough to get further and further along a road, it also requires talents that are different from ordinary people.

"Brother, don't worry, I'm really fine. Anyway, there is still a chance next time. The National Exhibition is held so many times a year, and it's not impossible to participate. If you are busy with work, don't come to see me. Anyway, I will come back during the holidays." Home, it won't be long, hehe."

"Well, I'm not worried, I just miss you a little bit, and I want to come and have a look. By the way, have you met the first prize winner?"

Tan Songxue lay on the bed staring at the ceiling, paused for a few seconds and replied: "I have met, and she also left her contact information. Her name is Lin Xiyao, she wears glasses, she looks very quiet and beautiful, and she doesn't look like her handwriting at all." The master said that she was a closed disciple of Mr. Zhang, because she was too young to participate in the book fair. I saw her writing at the pen fair, and she was very good. In two months, she will come to the Academy of Fine Arts for her freshman year. We will become alumni."

"Baby, don't forget that you skipped a grade and studied early. In fact, you are about the same age as her." Chen Kezhi's meaning was not too obvious. Tan Songxue put too much pressure on himself, and it would not be good for his health in the long run. He must maintain the best mentality in order to deal with the problems he will encounter in the future one by one.

Tan Songxue said happily on the other end of the phone: "Brother, there is no need for you not to persuade me, I understand. This time I am the second prize. I am the best in our class, and several professors have praised me."

"What praise is not praised, I really think you are young, do you want to send you a little red flower to stick on your forehead?"

"Hey, I'm serious. The other professors' apprentices are not as good as mine, except for Lin Xiyao. Besides, my dad hasn't won the second prize until now, and I have surpassed him. You don't even care about the recent n city book The association’s movements, my dad’s and Uncle Yi’s phone numbers have become a hotline these days, and many people have asked him if I’m the one who won the prize.”

Chen Kezhi joked: "Of course my wife is amazing."

Qin Songxue: "That's..."

The two hung up the phone after getting bored, and Tan Songxue sighed while holding the hot phone.

Although he was convinced by Lin Xiyao's defeat this time, he still felt uncomfortable.

But as he said, this time he has achieved a goal that many people have struggled for 40 to [-] years.

The first time Tan Songxue and Lin Xiyao met was at the pen meeting of the winners of the National Exhibition. Lin Xiyao, like him, also learned calligraphy from elementary school. When he was ten years old, he worshiped several masters and embarked on a career path.

During the conversation with Lin Xiyao, Tan Songxue found that her self-cultivation was very different from her own. Although Lin Xiyao never dropped her book bag when speaking, the nobleness in her speech and behavior made Qin Songxue feel uncomfortable. A kind of innocence.The calligraphers he has come into contact with all seem to be rough people, and even Yi Xiuyun can be rude and speak yellow accents from time to time.He couldn't get used to the sudden contact with such a type of people.

Compared to Qin Songxue, Lin Xiyao can be regarded as an all-rounder. There is nothing bad in calligraphy. She put all her time and energy into it, while Qin Songxue only focuses on seal script, and her attainments in running script and other aspects are not enough at all.

Lin Xiyao said that she had heard of Tan Songxue's name before participating in the competition, and she had been looking for an opportunity to meet him, because he also entered the National Exhibition at the age of eighteen and applied for membership.

Qin Songxue scratched her head, feeling rather embarrassed, saying that you won the first prize at [-], and I am an excellent one.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xiyao said, if you hadn't taken the normal college entrance examination to go to N University, you might have won the gold medal. I have improved by leaps and bounds since I was 15 years old.Spending time in the wrong place is not worth the effort.Your family will really hurt you.

Tan Songxue was a little unhappy. Although he was also a little unhappy and regretted that he was going to N University, this was Chen Kezhi's idea, and he himself agreed to it back then.Being told by an outsider is harmful to others and feels very irritated. This matter is a personal matter for him, and no one else can intervene.He opened his mouth, and was about to refute, but thought that the other party was a girl, so he murmured vaguely, noncommittal.

He knew that he and Lin Xiyao had already shaken the structure of the contemporary calligraphy competition. The winners of the first prize and the second prize, one just reached the weak crown, and the other did not reach the peach and plum, unprecedented since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

"Old Zeng, your apprentice and mine have a good conversation." Mr. Zhang said to Zeng Yun with one hand behind his back and the other holding a pipe.

"Mr. Zhang, do you have an idea? My little apprentice has his own master." Zeng Yunqing said with a smile.

Mr. Zhang was taken aback for a moment, and then regretfully said: "Hey, is it... You see, I am easy to worry about when I am old..."

"Where is it... Mr. Zhang, I brought a new chapter today..."

Neither Qin Songxue nor Lin Xiyao participated in the calligraphy exhibition in the second half of the year. The students in the class were very active, and some asked him for advice. Qin Songxue gave everything he could, and did not deliberately avoid those who did not know or were not sure about it. , freely admitted that he didn't understand.As for those students who believe it or not, he doesn't care at all.

Since she won the second prize, Qin Songxue's net worth has doubled, and she has created several famous works. The value of the paintings has also increased to 3 to [-] taels of screens. After finishing the book, there is a lot of money in the account.He didn't check the total number, and left everything to Chen Kezhi to take care of it.

Chen Kezhi had already moved out of the villa, and Tan Songxue always stayed there with Tan's father when his father was not at home after the summer vacation, and no one bothered them.Dandan's water tank was also moved there, and Chen Kezhi came to take care of it and feed it some meat for a week.

In the morning, Chen Kezhi got up for a run, while Tan Songxue was still sleeping. After waking up, he could eat the breakfast bought by Chen Kezhi. After the two finished eating, Qin Songxue wrote and drew at home, and Chen Kezhi took the subway or bus to work.Sometimes the two shave each other and take a shower together. There is no need for any agreement at night, and they just have a natural haircut when they feel like it, and they feel refreshed.

Tan Songxue had the illusion that he was married to Chen Kezhi.

One day Tan Songxue couldn't hold back, and said to Chen Kezhi: "Brother, you said that if the two of us can get the certificate in the future, will it be like this after we really get married?"

Chen Kezhi paused as he straightened his collar, and then said with a smile, "Aren't we two considered married?"

Tan Songxue chuckled: "Forget it, why not?"

129

Chen Kezhi reached out and hugged Tan Songxue, let him sit on his body and kissed him, his hands and feet began to be dishonest...

At this moment, Qin Songxue's cell phone rang.

Chen Kezhi cursed in his heart, picked up the phone and didn't look at the correspondent, slid the answer button and asked, "Who is it?"

The other end of the phone didn't speak, probably startled by Chen Kezhi's tone.

Tan Songxue rubbed Chen Kezhi's stiff lower body, answered the phone, looked at the screen, and said, "Sorry, that was my brother just now, what's the matter?"

The caller was Lin Xiyao: "Oh, that's it...Senior, I want to go to city n the day after tomorrow to have fun."

"Come on, call when the time comes, and I'll pick you up."

Chen Kezhi got a little impatient, put his hand into Tan Songxue's pants, and began to knead his buttocks.

Qin Songxue was made uncomfortable, breathed steadily, grabbed Chen Kezhi's wrist with the other hand and continued to talk on the phone: "Do you have any plans to go when you come to N City?"

Chen Kezhi pulled out his hand, leaned back a little, slightly hooked the corner of his mouth, and unbuttoned a button on Tan Songxue's shirt.

Lin Xiyao: "Yes, I want to visit Fenglan Mountain."

Qin Songxue: "Is anyone coming with you?"

Lin Xiyao: "No one, it's just me. I'm not in the group. It's not so much to come alone, but if it bothers you, don't pick me up if it's troublesome. Just tell me about Fenglanshan's situation. .”

Chen Kezhi had already unbuttoned Tan Songxue's four buttons, exposing his snow-white chest to the air. He pinched Tan Songxue's light-colored nipples with his hands, and then pinched them with his nails.

Qin Songxue: "Um..."

Lin Xiyao: "?"

Tan Songxue's breathing became a little short, and while stopping Chen Kezhi from continuing to move, he replied: "It's okay, just call me when you arrive, and I haven't been to Fenglanshan for a long time... How about you come on the weekend? I want to talk to you Let's go climbing with my brother. Let's go together. My brother usually has to go to work and I don't have time to go out, and I don't know how to drive. Come to the station... No, are you taking the plane or the high-speed rail?"

"airplane."

"I don't know how to drive. I have to ask my brother for help. Tell me the shift, and I'll go to the airport according to the time."

Traveling alone is very unsafe, especially for girls. Lin Xiyao has no objection to Tan Songxue's suggestion.

"Then I'm going to trouble you, senior." With a week left before departure, Lin Xiyao didn't book a plane ticket, so she changed the itinerary silently and thanked Qin Songxue.

Chen Kezhi opened his mouth to hold Tan Songxue's nipples, and Tan Songxue quickly hung up the phone without even saying the concluding remarks.

"Brother!" Qin Songxue raised her neck and panted heavily, inserting her fingers into Chen Kezhi's hair.

But Chen Kezhi stopped his movements instead, and asked Tan Songxue, "Was that your junior just now?"

Qin Songxue was not satisfied, and was a little unhappy: "Lin Xiyao, you know, the one with the national first prize."

Chen Kezhi is completely at ease about Tan Songxue's love life. A character like Tan Songxue who needs care, he only needs to be wary of their kind, such as Liang Yuanzhen, and his existence is a threat during his study.Qin Songxue's simplicity is a double-edged sword, while attracting people, it also keeps others away.He was sure that Lin Xiyao would only regard Tan Songxue as a good friend rather than a boyfriend candidate.He was simply upset about being interrupted.

"Remember to mute at this time next time, huh?" Chen Kezhi's habit of mute when doing business was still formed when he was in middle school, thanks to a phone call from Gao Chengxi.

"Okay..." Tan Songxue bowed her head and kissed Chen Kezhi while answering, Chen Kezhi was distracted to untie the clothes on the two of them.

On the Saturday morning of the second week, Tan Songxue was shaken awake by Chen Kezhi: "I got up, I'm going to pick up someone this morning."

Tan Songxue waved his hand, rubbed his eyes and asked, "What time is it?"

"At eight o'clock, Lin Xiyao arrives at the airport at ten o'clock. If you don't get up, you won't be able to make it." Chen Kezhi lifted the quilt and slapped Tan Songxue's buttocks, making a clear and loud sound.

"Don't hit me and get up now!" Tan Songxue blushed, sat up with her buttocks bare, and went to look for underwear in the closet.

At this moment, Chen Kezhi's cell phone rang.

Chen Kezhi wondered, who else would call him at this time?

Tan Songxue wondered while putting on his pants, and glanced at Chen Ke.

Mother Chen called.

Chen Kezhi: "Hello, Mom?"

Chen's mother said on the other end of the phone: "Your dad and I will go to city n in the afternoon. He has a meeting. I'll drop by to see you."

Chen Kezhi: "..."

Chen's mother: "What? Are you working overtime today? Alas, your dad did too. He just told me today that he was coming to N city for a meeting. I didn't tell you in advance..."

Chen Kezhi: "No, Mom, I'm taking a break today. What time will you arrive? Do you want me to pick you up?"

Chen's mother: "Oh, as long as you are free, the driver of your father's unit will drive. It will leave at nine o'clock and arrive at one or two in the afternoon. You don't need to pick it up. I will go directly to your place."

Chen Kezhi said: "OK, then I'll wait for you at home in the afternoon, Mom, hang up first, I have something to do in the morning, so be careful on the road."

Mother Chen: "OK."

Chen Kezhi hung up the phone and looked at Tan Songxue speechlessly.

Qin Songxue: "Aunt Zhao is coming?"

Chen Kezhi nodded: "That's it...we picked up Lin Xiyao and had lunch together. In the afternoon, you accompany Lin Xiyao to climb the mountain, and I will stay at home with my mother."

Tan Songxue: "Why don't you ask Aunt Zhao to go with you?"

Chen Kezhi: "Not suitable, my mother is getting old."

Without Chen Kezhi's company, Tan Songxue didn't want to go. He originally wanted to go climbing with Chen Kezhi. There were only him and Lin Xiyao. There was no other topic to talk about except calligraphy. Tan Songxue felt that he would be cold.

"Then I'll call you Uncle Yi? Isn't he all right all day long..."

Chen Kezhi thought for a while: "...Well, I'll call him again at noon. Uncle Yi is Professor Zeng's apprentice. It's good for you two to be together."

"Lin Xiyao knows Uncle Yi and the others, and the emperor has met Uncle Yi since he came back."

Chen Kezhi's car is not often used, and it is too conspicuous to drive to work, so he almost always takes the subway from Monday to Friday, and only uses the car when he needs to go out on weekends.Lin Xiyao's plane was not late, and arrived on time at ten o'clock.

After successfully receiving the person, Lin Xiyao thanked Chen Kezhi and Tan Songxue.

Tan Songxue had talked about Lin Xiyao to Chen Kezhi before, and when Chen Kezhi met her for the first time, his impression was similar to Tan Songxue's evaluation of her.

Wearing glasses, he looks very quiet, very talkative, and his conversation is very cultivated. He doesn't carry much luggage, a backpack and a full-frame SLR, which seems to be the trend of traveling all year round.

It was very hot in N City in July, and the rolling heat waves on the ground made it difficult to see what was in front of her eyes. After Lin Xiyao got out of the airport, she was so hot that her skin hurt when the sun shone on her body.

"Senior, is there a book fair in n city these days?" Lin Xiyao sat in the back seat of the car talking to Tan Songxue.

"Yes, in the museum... But there is nothing to see. I have seen it. Our provincial level is not high, you know. But you can go to see some cultural relics in the museum. It takes two days to visit all the museums."

"I know this. The city of n came out of Qiwangdui. Isn't the treasure of the town hall the sword? I have all the filters, so I just want to see these cultural relics."

Chen Kezhi continued: "There are indeed many good things in the museum. Go early, and the staff will explain... I will invite you to dinner at noon today. I can't take you with me in the afternoon. I really don't have time. I don't have a car. It's inconvenient, Qiuqiu... Qin Songxue doesn't know how to drive, so give me a call when you come down from the mountain, and I'll come pick you up."

Qin Songxue added: "My brother's mother is here."

Lin Xiyao knew that Tan Songxue had an older brother, and he often heard Chen Kezhi's name mentioned by him at school. When he saw the real person today, his first feeling was that he had nothing in common with Tan Songxue.Not only his appearance, but Chen Kezhi has the taste of a mature man from the inside out, while Qin Songxue looks like a student who has not stepped into the society even though he is in his 20s.

The contrast between the two is too strong.

"It doesn't matter, I have to make you spend money once I come to play, I'm very sorry, this time I brought some special products from the province of G, just a little bit."

Qin Songxue: "Thank you, thank you, is it food?"

Chen Kezhi looked in the rearview mirror and was completely speechless at Qin Songxue's communication skills. Yuanchang said: "...Why are you being so polite? Next time you come to N City, don't bring anything with you. Just grab some luggage and call me for help." You book the hotel, and you can just come and have fun. And it’s worth it no matter what the expenses are, as a landlord’s kindness. Speaking of which, Tan Songxue is also half from the province, and you are half from the same town.”

Lin Xiyao didn't care about Tan Songxue's blunt words. In her heart, Tan Songxue was even a few years younger than her, and she subconsciously never saw him as a senior.

"Yes, it's just a little special food. It may not suit your taste. Just try something new." Lin Xiyao smiled without showing her teeth, and the feeling of being a lady has been deeply reflected in the minds of the two of them, "N City is a good place to eat." This place, I came here when I was a child, my father and mother took me to taste the snacks here. At that time, there was a snack street. I don’t know if it still exists now? It tastes good, but it’s a bit spicy for me. Son, so I didn’t eat much back then, this time it’s fun.”

"That street is still there!" Qin Songxue said quickly, "I'll take you to eat barbecue tonight! It's really delicious. I haven't eaten it for a long time. My brother won't let me go, saying that I'll get cancer if I eat too much... ..."

Chen Kezhi: "..."

Lin Xiyao: "..."

Qin Songxue realized that what she said seemed a bit disappointing, her voice gradually weakened, and she muttered, "It's okay to only eat once or twice..."

Chen Kezhi prayed in his heart that this kid would quickly turn on his mobile phone and play games, and stop talking about embarrassment.But it suddenly occurred to him that he often met Lin Xiyao when he was in school, and he might have lost a lot of embarrassments...

Chen Kezhi had a headache.

"N City has been well planned in recent years, and its urban construction is much better than before, especially after applying for a civilized city. If it was a few years ago, you would have to worry about being robbed when you go out at night...it's not safe. It's a cultural city anyway. No, several ancient tombs have been excavated, it’s too bad to justify.” Chen Kezhi started talking nonsense because there was really no topic.

Lin Xiyao answered, "To see how a city's cultural heritage is, all you need to do is look at its museum. The museum in city n is said to be one of the best in the country. I didn't remember it when I was young, but now I finally have the opportunity to take a look. Over I will go to City X in two days."

Chen Kezhi: "City x has a stronger cultural atmosphere than city n. I haven't taken Tan Songxue to play in the ancient capital of the Seven Dynasties. I don't have much time after work. There are too many people during the Golden Week, so there is nothing to see."

A few people chattered all the way in the car, and arrived at the reserved hotel more than an hour later.

130

Chen Kezhi seldom went home after arriving in n city in the third year of junior high school. He met his parents less and less often, and the time became shorter and shorter. Live together for a while.Now there is no summer vacation after work, and there are only [-] days of public vacation a year, so he has to allocate part of it to accompany Tan Songxue, so the time in S city is very limited.

Chen's mother is over 50, and she has long ceased to be a homeroom teacher, and she does not teach in the third year of high school.After the work is not so busy, it is easy to think about my son when I calm down, especially when my relatives get married and have children in my hometown in J province, I always think about my son getting married.

She doesn't want her children to belong as early as other parents. After all, Chen Kezhi's career has just started and he has not yet gained a firm foothold in N City.But Chen Kezhi is 26 years old this year, she doesn't even have a girlfriend, and her emotional life is blank, which makes her a little anxious.

During the Chinese New Year dinner, these topics were discussed at nothing more than these topics. During the New Year greetings, many people inquired about Chen Kezhi's girlfriend. Although Chen Kezhi replied politely one by one that he was still studying and had no such intentions, Chen's mother knew that Chen Kezhi had already Pretty impatient.Chen Kezhi has been working very hard for his studies, and it was hard for him to go home to relax. She didn't want her son to be in a bad mood, so she never brought this topic up in front of him.Chen's father also believed that men should put their career first, and very much supported Chen Kezhi's idea of ​​remarrying at the age of 30, so he never urged him to find a girlfriend.

Many people who wanted to introduce girls they knew to Chen Kezhi for a blind date were rejected by Chen's father and mother, saying that everything was based on Chen Kezhi's wishes, and no one would come to them over time.

At about 01:30 in the afternoon, Mother Chen arrived in City N, and after getting off the expressway, she dialed Chen Kezhi's phone number.Chen Ke had lunch and cleaned up the house briefly, and took the things that Tan Songxue left on the bed to the guest room. If Chen's mother found out that the two were still sleeping together, something big would happen.And the condoms and lube in the drawer had to find a place to hide.

There are two guest rooms, one of which was specially prepared by Chen Kezhi for his parents. The bed sheets and quilt covers are well protected against dust, and there is no need to wash them again. Chen Kezhi just carried them out to dry in the sun.

It takes an hour to get off the expressway to the community where Chen Kezhi lives. There is a fee for parking in the community, so the driver just sent Chen's mother to the door. Chen Kezhi waited there early, took his mother's luggage, and asked his dad if he was going to go up tonight. It's convenient to come and live, Chen's father said that the unit has been arranged, just come and meet, there is nothing else.

Chen Kezhi said that he would pick up his mother first and ask his father to report quickly.

Chen's mother didn't plan to stay for a long time, so she only brought a hand-held suitcase with some clothes in it.

"This neighborhood is nice." Mother Chen has been teaching for the first half of the year, and has never been to City N. This is the first time she has come to Chen Kezhi's new home. "Isn't it far from where you work?"

"Well, it's not far. You won't be late if you take the subway at [-]:[-] o'clock... By the way, Mom, Uncle Tan has been in S City for the past two days. Qiuqiu lives with me and has some of his things at home."

"Why didn't you see anyone else?" The two children had a good relationship since childhood, and Mother Chen didn't care about it.

"His classmate came from province G to play, and now he is in Fenglanshan, let's have dinner together in the afternoon, and there is no need to buy vegetables in the evening."

Mother Chen asked casually, "Students from high school?" Qin Songxue had only studied in province G for four months, so it stands to reason that she wouldn't have any particularly good friends.

"It's not... the girl from the Imperial Academy of Fine Arts, the girl who won the first prize in the National Exhibition."

Chen's mother suddenly recalled: "They..."

"Just ordinary students, it doesn't mean that."

Hearing Chen Kezhi's denial, Chen's mother swallowed back what she was going to say later.

"Mom, I'll be at home tomorrow weekend, Qiuqiu is going to the museum, why don't we go together? You haven't visited the museum yet, have you?"

Chen's mother is fine. It's not convenient for the Chen family's second brother to visit alone. She can only watch TV at home, so she replied: "Okay, let's watch it tomorrow."

There is no elevator in the six-story house, the first floor is the garage, and Chen Kezhi is on the top floor, so they actually have to walk the distance of the seventh floor.The weather was too hot, and Chen's mother couldn't bear it. When she went upstairs, she rested on the handrail for a while. Chen Kezhi walked in front, but didn't hear the footsteps following. Looking back, she saw Chen's mother stopped, and she felt emotional. Parents are indeed old.

Since Chen's mother married Chen's father, she has nothing to worry about at home, and she has not taken care of her class when she is old. She is only a teacher in a department, and the work pressure is not high, so she takes good care of herself and ages almost gracefully. With a special charm.

"Mom, there's nothing to clean up at home. After a day's driving, you should rest first." After Chen Kezhi opened the door, the cool air in the house rushed over. Chen's mother glanced at the house. The things are also neat and orderly, the ground is spotless, with a meticulous seriousness, which is similar to her son's personality.

Everything in the house seems to be fine, but it seems a little deserted. The house Chen Kezhi bought is not small, 130 square meters, which is too big for one person to live in.

The TV was always on, and Chen's mother liked to watch some variety show talk shows, which happened to be rebroadcast at this time. Chen Kezhi never watched them, and sat next to his mother with a book in his arms.

The show was a bit boring, and Mother Chen asked, "Son, have you bought any fruit at home?"

Chen Ke was taken aback. Neither he nor Qin Songxue had the habit of going to the supermarket to buy fruit. When they lived in the villa, Yi Xiuyun would occasionally buy some back. They only ate two after washing.

"I didn't buy it, I don't eat that much. Or, Mom, I'm going out now, and there's a supermarket downstairs." Chen Kezhi put the book down as he spoke, and got up barefoot to go to the door.

"No need, no need, didn't you say you want to go out to eat at night, just buy it when you come back." Mother Chen sighed, she saw the tall figure of Chen Kezhi in her eyes, she stood up to block a lot of light, for some reason, she suddenly remembered Chen Kezhi's bun face when he was young, followed by Tan Songxue with a runny nose, the two children ran one by one in the yard, Qin Songxue didn't have as long legs as Chen Kezhi, and couldn't keep up with losing his temper and kept running behind It's called Grasshopper.Dazzling 20 years have passed.

"Xiao Ke..." Mother Chen called him.

Chen Kezhi faintly felt that Chen's mother was going to talk to him about something, glanced out of the window, and immediately looked away: "What's wrong, Mom?"

"Son, Mom is not urging you... You are already 26 this year." Mother Chen's tone was rather helpless.

Chen Kezhi's prediction became a reality. He sat on the sofa and rubbed the center of his brows, and replied: "Mom, didn't I tell you and Dad during the Chinese New Year? It's too early to talk about marriage now, and we only get married at thirty There are many. I haven't worked for a long time, and although I don't have any pressure, I really don't want to think about this kind of problem..."

"I know..." Chen's mother rarely mentioned this topic, because she didn't want to upset Chen Kezhi. There is a sign, isn't it? Mom has been a teacher for so many years, and knows that you children..."

"But Mom, you know I'm different from them." Chen Kezhi interrupted her, "Before I was concentrating on my studies, how could I have time to think about these things? I was also in the student union or doing projects when I was in college. When I was studying, I confessed to me There are quite a few, but I really don’t have the energy to think about those. Besides, I’ve just worked for more than a year now, and it’s not time to think about this issue, but you suddenly urged me to find a girlfriend, how could I find one? So fast? You have to let me get used to it for at least two years, right?"

"Taking a step back, I've always been casual about finding a girlfriend. I'd rather be short than indiscriminate. Marriage is a lifetime thing, so you have to think about it carefully. You're so young now, so you're not in a hurry to have a grandson, are you?"

Chen's mother smiled and shook her head: "With your mouth, I can't say no to you...Then mother can always ask you what plans you have for the future, at least you have to have a direction. You really haven't seen it in the past twenty years. Eye-catching?"

"You mean looking for a partner? I used to think that one was pretty good, but I was studying back then, and I didn't want to think about it after a long time... Well... When I was a sophomore in high school, I didn't tell anyone." Chen Kezhi His career plan is quite clear. The current unit is just a springboard for him. After two years, he will be transferred to a better place, and he will even have some real power. What Chen's mother said is naturally a major event in his life.

"As for the future partner...he... his education shouldn't be too low, it's too different from mine, at least he has to be a graduate of 211. His family background is similar to mine, his appearance can be seen, and the most important thing is that he should be kind. , I can’t have so many calculations. I don’t care much about other things, even if he doesn’t work, I can support him. It’s good to live a normal life, I don’t want to live with someone and argue all day long over trivial things The world is turned upside down. You and Dad are fine like this. There have been no problems for decades. There is no such thing as a seven-year itch in our family. My dad still loves you to death."

Chen Kezhi successfully changed the subject, and Mother Chen was quite embarrassed by what he said, so she patted him on the shoulder: "You brat knows poverty!" After a while, he said, "Your father and I will also get angry and have conflicts. , It’s just that you haven’t seen it. As a husband and wife, let’s be considerate to each other, make concessions, and everything will be happy at home... We’ve been together for so many decades, is there any problem that can’t be solved?”

"Well, you're right, you and Dad have always been my role models."

"Come on, I haven't seen you in a few months. You are good at flattering. It's different after you join the work, right?" Chen's mother had nothing to say about Chen Kezhi's indecency.

Since then, Chen's mother never brought up this topic again, and the mother and son chatted all afternoon. At about five o'clock, Qin Songxue called and asked Chen Kezhi to go to Fenglanshan to pick them up for dinner.
