Chapter 61:

because mom loves dad

Hearing Ji Jiangzhou's introduction, Pei Jing just lowered his eyelashes slightly and did not speak to explain.

Yu Bo looked at Pei Jing again and said, "Do you think this kid looks a bit like me?"

When Xiaoyi heard these words, her eyes immediately lingered on the faces of Pei Jing and Yu Bo, and then she said firmly, "It's not like that."

Hearing the little girl's crisp voice, Ji Jiangzhou smiled slightly: "Yes, not like that."

Yu Bo touched his face: "All right."

"Father, let's go buy paintbrushes quickly, or someone will **** them away." Xiaoyi urged.

Yu Bo asked back: "Aren't you rich, and you are afraid of being robbed?"

When Ji Zhile heard this sentence, he immediately became anxious: "Father, let's go!"

Maybe Xiaoyi will buy paintbrushes from them later, anyway, Xiaoyi looks very rich.

When Xiaoyi saw it, she immediately ran away, and she was bound to catch up with Ji Zhile.

Ji Zhile was very anxious, but there were four of them in the group, and the other three were not in a hurry, he was so anxious that he stomped his feet and couldn't help it.

As soon as Ji Ning saw it, he comforted him: "Don't worry Zhile, there are a lot of brushes, and they won't be sold out."

Ji Ningyi thought that Ji Zhile was worrying about him, so his heart softened, and he said, "Thank you, Zhile."

Ji Zhile, who was thanked again, was a little confused. He looked at his brother, hesitated for a few times, but still didn't tell the real reason. He actually wanted to get the brush before Xiaoyi, so maybe Xiaoyi would show up again. A lot of money to buy it from him.

Ji Zhile whispered, "You're welcome."

I also naturally accepted the thanks from my brother.

Several people walked to the other side, Ji Zhile chattered about what happened just now, her tone extremely excited.

"Brother, I made money just now, do you know how I made money?"

Ji Ning asked, "How did you earn it?"

Ji Zhile gestured excitedly: "The girl just now is called Xiaoyi, and she wants to buy the funny egg in my hand, and she bought it for me for 200 yuan, and the funny egg only costs 10 yuan. Made a lot of money!"

Ji Ning said: "But Zhile, don't you like funny eggs very much, so you only have nine."

Ji Zhile said, "I like it, but I like two hundred yuan more."

Ji Ning frowned, feeling that Ji Zhile's logic was a bit wrong, but he didn't know how to refute it.

Ji Jiangzhou said: "Zhile, if you like it very much, you don't have to sell it to others. The most important thing is to be happy yourself."

When Xiao Yi wanted to buy a funny egg with a hundred yuan, Ji Jiangzhou really didn't expect Ji Zhile's reaction at all. He was only three and a half years old, and he knew how to increase the price. Thinking of Yu Bo's expression at that time, maybe The inner shock was similar to his.

If this matter gets out, there may be some version of it. The son of the president of the Ji family actually did this for two hundred yuan.

But Ji Zhile didn't understand anything, he blinked with a pure and innocent expression: "I'm very happy."

He said: "The bottle I picked up for a day can only be sold for five yuan, and the price of a funny egg is two hundred yuan, which is much more."

When mentioning the matter of picking up bottles, Ji Jiangzhou thought of the last time he came back and caught sight of his disheveled son by the side of the trash can, and immediately asked, "Zhi Le, are you still picking up bottles?"

Ji Zhile said, "Not anymore."

Ji Jiangzhou rubbed his youngest son's curly hair and said, "Well, don't pick up bottles. If you just want to make money, this labor has the lowest rate of return. Dad doesn't want you to do it."

Ji Zhile still doesn't quite understand, but he nodded, he already has a bigger goal in mind, when he grows up, he will sell funny eggs for 100 yuan each, and there must be many people who buy them.

Xiaoyi is really rich, she can buy whatever she wants, and she spends her lucky money, Ji Zhile suddenly thought of something, raised her head and asked, "Dad, where is my lucky money?"

Ji Jiangzhou was startled: "Huh?"

Ji Zhile thought he had forgotten, and immediately said: "I left the lucky money to my father, where is my lucky money?"

Ji Jiangzhou said, "It's still there."

Ji Zhile asked expectantly: "Dad, how much lucky money do I have now?"

Xiaoyi must have quite a lot, because she spent two hundred yuan as she said, but Ji Zhile forgot how much money she had.

Ji Jiangzhou asked quietly: "Does Zhile remember how much money he has?"

Ji Zhile stretched out his palm and counted his fingers from one to ten, but he still couldn't remember clearly, so he tentatively asked, "Is there ten or two hundred?"

Ji Jiangzhou was completely relieved when he saw that his youngest son was not sure about the counting and counting. It seemed that Ji Zhile would not be able to count more than one hundred after several months of growth. He said calmly: "Some , there are two thousand yuan."

Ji Jiangzhou was very happy, and asked him: "Then how much do I have if Dad adds two hundred now?"

He can only add and subtract simple integers within one hundred. In fact, the addition and subtraction of thousands and ten thousand are similar, but the kindergarten teacher did not teach it, and Ji Ningyi did not teach it. Ji Zhile has never been able to, and he also feels very It is difficult, and I didn't take the initiative to learn it. I can only ask other people every time.

Ji Jiangzhou said, "Twenty-two hundred yuan."

Ji Zhile asked again: "Then how much is left after subtracting one hundred and eighty-nine?"

"There are two thousand and eleven left."

Ji Zhile whispered twice: "Two thousand and eleven, two thousand and eleven."

Then he said to Ji Jiangzhou, "Dad, I want one hundred and eighty-nine yuan. You can help me buy a skirt online."

He had forgotten that he still had the lucky money. After all, it has been a long time since the Chinese New Year. After being reminded by Xiaoyi, he remembered that he still had the lucky money. Ji Zhile thought to himself, so he is also rich.

He still doesn't know how to surf the Internet, and can only play the simplest games on his mobile phone. Shopping is too complicated, so he can only ask his father to help him.

Ji Jiangzhou didn't ask Ji Zhile what he wanted to buy the dress for, he just said, "Okay."

After all, it was Ji Zhile's money, and Ji Zhile had the full right to use it. The compensation to Si Tian was also because of Ji Zhile's own actions, which was very reasonable.

The four of them finally arrived at the stationery shop slowly, and just happened to meet Xiaoyi who had chosen the paintbrush. As soon as the little girl saw them, she raised the paintbrush in her hand and said, "I've already bought it." , this is the last box."

The cashier at the checkout said: "We still have the same paintbrush here, but the packaging is different. Children can buy it by themselves if they need it."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi opened her eyes wide and asked, "Isn't it the last one?"

The shopping guide smiled and said, "No."

Xiaoyi was very disappointed, Yu Bo asked: "Does Xiaoyi still want to buy it?"

Xiaoyi looked at it and said, "Buy!"

Shocked, Ji Zhile pulled Ji Jiangzhou's hand and said, "Daddy, I want to buy it too."

Ji Jiangzhou said: "If you see something you like, you can buy it."

Ji Zhile was so happy, she immediately ran to Xiaoyi's side, picked up boxes of paint brushes next to Xiaoyi, and even shook them in front of Xiaoyi, but Xiaoyi didn't say like just now, I took a box of brushes Buy it for you!

Ji Zhile was very disappointed. He glanced at the price of the paintbrush, and was immediately shocked by the three-digit number starting with 8. It was so expensive that Ji Zhile immediately didn't want to buy it.

There are still paintbrushes at home, and Xiaoyi feels strange when he sees his movements of picking up and putting down, and asks: "Do you want it?"

Ji Zhile lowered his voice and said, "It's so expensive, I don't want it anymore."

Xiaoyi showed a thoughtful expression, and then shouted: "Dad!"

"He said that paint brushes are very expensive, can our family afford them?"

As soon as Xiaoyi said this, both Ji Jiangzhou and Yu Bo looked at it. Yu Bo gave Ji Jiangzhou a teasing look, and said to Xiaoyi: "If you can afford it, you can buy it with confidence. You can buy it all."

Xiaoyi said, "I want two boxes, that's enough."

Ji Zhile immediately opened his eyes wide when he heard this, and bought them all...

He glanced at the stationery store. It's so big and there are so many things. Can you buy them all? Xiao Yi is really rich, and Ji Zhile regretted it a bit. When he sold the Tricky Egg to Xiao Yi, even if it was three hundred, Xiao Yi would definitely buy it.

Ji Jiangzhou approached and said to Ji Zhile: "Zhile, you can buy brushes, and our family can also buy them."

He doesn't know why Ji Zhile has always had such a big misunderstanding about the conditions of his home. He doesn't want Zhile and Ning Yi to hesitate to consider money when buying what they want.

Ji Zhile thought for a while and said, "I'll buy it after I run out of brushes at home."

Although my father said that I can buy it, the children who have picked up the bottle and know that it is not easy to make money already have their own understanding of life.

Xiaoyi also heard Ji Zhile's words, and immediately put the paintbrush in her hand back on the shelf: "I don't want it anymore, Dad."

Yu Bo said: "Don't you want two boxes, just buy them."

Xiaoyi shook her head: "I have to use it up before I buy it."

Children are easily influenced by their peers, Yu Bo said: "Okay, then when your mother asks you, you can't say whether I bought it for you."

"Know it."

Xiao Yi finished shopping, took Yu Bo's hand and left.

Pei Jing looked at the backs of them leaving hand in hand, and lightly pursed his lower lip. Ever since Ji Jiangzhou said that Pei Jing was a child from a relative's family, Yu Bo had never looked at him with such strange eyes again, but Pei Jing's But the attention always goes to Yu Bo and Xiao Yi from time to time.

Seeing them leave, Pei Jing said to Ji Jiangzhou, "Uncle, I want to go to the toilet nearby."

Ji Ning said, "I'll accompany you."

Pei Jing said: "No need, I'll be right next to you and I'll be back soon, Ning Yi, you can choose a paintbrush first."

Ji Jiangzhou glanced at Pei Jing, Pei Jing was a little nervous, and always felt that his uncle seemed to see his true intentions clearly.

"Go, come back early." Ji Jiangzhou said.

Pei Jingjing nodded and ran outside, but instead of going to the bathroom, he quietly followed behind Yu Bo and Xiaoyi.

He heard Xiaoyi's voice, the little girl's voice was crisp and clear, laughing and making troubles were carefree and unrestrained, something Pei Jing would never do, he saw Yu Bo hugging Xiaoyi, the father and daughter were chatting, chatting The content of the story is all kinds of strange, but the atmosphere between them is that of a family, and no one can get in.

Pei Jing clenched his fists, feeling a little sad for some reason, he didn't have such a home.

When they arrived at the parking lot, Pei Jing hid behind a pillar and saw Yu Bo put Xiao Yi into the car, and then picked up the phone.

The parking lot was quiet, and Pei Jing could clearly hear what Yu Bo said. It should be Xiaoyi's mother on the phone.

They are a family, Pei Jing felt a little lost and uncomfortable, and quietly turned around to go back, but someone patted his shoulder.

Pei Jing turned around and found Xiaoyi's father who was on the other side just now was standing in front of him.

The man held the mobile phone in his hand, looked at him carefully for a few seconds, then clicked his tongue lightly, and asked, "What's your name, little friend?"

Pei Jing looked at him vigilantly, turned around and wanted to run without speaking.

Yu Bo pressed his shoulders and smiled: "What are you running? Didn't you take the initiative to follow me?"

"Forget it, I'll go and see for myself."

He pulled out a piece of Pei Jing's hair and let go.

Pei Jing ran fast, Yu Bo touched his chin, and Xiao Yi shouted from the car: "Dad, come here quickly, we're going home."

"Here we come, my little princess."

After leaving the parking lot, Pei Jing ran upstairs directly through the elevator. His heart was pounding. He didn't know why the uncle wanted to pull out his hair just now and found him so quickly.

He didn't know why he wanted to follow that uncle, but he wanted to do so too much.

Pei Jingshen took a few breaths, making himself look no different from when he left just now, and walked into the stationery store.

Ji Ningyi had already chosen the paintbrush. He had two sets in his hand. As soon as he saw Pei Jing, he walked towards him with the things and happily handed one of the boxes to Pei Jing: "Here, so that we I have the same paintbrush."

Ji Zhile was beside him, shaking the bag in his hand, smiling so hard that his gums were showing: "I have it too."

Pei Jing subconsciously refused: "I don't need it."

He looked at the price of the paintbrush just now, and it was 899, which was quite a large amount for Pei Jing.

Ji Ning leaned close to Pei Jing's ear and whispered, "My dad bought it. The stationery store is doing an event. You can give away toys when you spend two thousand. Zhile wants a small plane, so dad bought three boxes of paintbrushes."

"Hold it so we can draw together in art class."

Pei Jing didn't have a paintbrush. When he was in art class, he often drew with pencils. Ji Ning lent him his own paintbrush.

But borrowing brushes is very common in the class, because many students forget to bring them in class.

Pei Jing finally took it: "Thank you, Ning Yi."

He secretly remembered in his heart that he hoped that when he grew up, he could return all the good things Ning had done to him.

Ji Ning smiled: "You're welcome."

He thinks that Pei Jing will like this brush, because Pei Jing's paintings are very beautiful.

Pei Jing accompanied him to the shopping mall today to buy gifts, and even accepted the gift from him. Ji Ningyi liked the current Pei Jing even more.

After shopping, everyone went back together. Ji Zhile, who got a lot of gifts and two hundred dollars, was very happy, and immediately opened a funny egg in the car to celebrate.

Pei Jing's mind was not on this, and he recalled the scene in the parking lot just now in his mind.

He and that uncle do look a bit alike, but that uncle has a daughter, and he also brought his daughter to buy toys and paint brushes, just like Uncle Ji brought Ning Yi and Zhi Le to the mall, it should be a very happy family.

Pei Jing didn't refute what Ji Jiangzhou said about the children of his relatives, but he knew his identity. Although he didn't know why Uncle Ji said that, adults always have their own reasons.

Although Pei Jing has never met his father, he also thought about what his father would be like.

"Brother Pei Jing, here you are." Ji Zhi's voice brought Pei Jing back to reality, and Pei Jing saw Ji Zhile holding half of the funny egg with two chocolate **** inside.

Ji Zhile said: "Brother Pei Jing is one, and brother is one. When I get home, my mother will be alone, and my father will be together."

"I want the puzzle inside," he said.

Ji Ning reached out and took a chocolate ball inside, put it into his mouth, and said, "Thank you Zhile."

Pei Jing also followed Ji Ningyi's example and removed the other one, and Ji Zhile asked them with bright eyes, "Is it delicious?"

Jing Pei nodded: "It's delicious."

But Ji Zhile's eyes did not move away from Pei Jing, he was still looking at Pei Jing seriously, and then said: "Brother Pei Jing, I also think that you look different from that uncle, you are short, He's tall, it's different."

Pei Jing was taken aback for a moment, wondering why Ji Zhile brought up this matter all at once, but he could also keep up with the child's thinking, he touched his face and said, "I'm not too good at it either." distinguish."

Ji Ning said: "Zhi Le, whether people look alike is judged by their height."

But Ji Zhile doesn't quite understand, he is still young, and he only sees the biggest gap when looking at people: "Then brother thinks brother Pei Jing looks like that uncle?"

As soon as Ji Ning looked at Pei Jing carefully, Pei Jing immediately stopped moving his cheeks and let the chocolate ball melt in his mouth, as if Ji Ningyi's words could really affect anything.

Unfortunately, Ji Ning also shook his head: "I don't know."

Then he turned his head and asked Ji Jiangzhou: "Dad, what do you think?"

Ji Jiangzhou said: "There are many people who look similar in the world, but there are very few people who are really related. My father thinks that it doesn't matter whether they look alike."

Ji Zhile let out an "oh", he wasn't very interested in this, he just thought of it when he asked, and now he didn't pursue it, just reminded him: "Dad, remember to come home and find me, I want to buy something."

Ji Jiangzhou said, "Okay."

But something crossed Pei Jing's mind. He felt that what Uncle Ji said just now should have been said to him.

After arriving home, Ji Ningyi and Ji Zhile got out of the car first, and Ji Jiangzhou walked behind, but they were stopped by the child in a low voice.

"Uncle Ji."

Ji Jiangzhou turned around and looked at Pei Jing: "What's wrong?"

Pei Jing said, "Uncle Ji, I want to tell you something."

"When I was in the stationery store, I didn't go to the bathroom. I went to see Xiaoyi and Xiaoyi's father. Xiaoyi's father found out, and Xiaoyi's father even pulled my hair."

Pei Jing knew that Xiaoyi's father knew Uncle Ji, and he didn't want to affect them because of his own reasons.

Ji Jiangzhou actually guessed this too. The time when Pei Jing went out was too coincidental, but he wanted to keep it a secret from the child, so he didn't reveal this from the beginning to the end. He didn't expect Pei Jing to reveal it himself.

At this time, he also understood Si Tian's words, Pei Jing is very sensitive and has a sense of proportion, these things that are not so common in adults, are very pitiful in children.

Ji Jiangzhou said: "I see, Pei Jing, you don't have to worry."

Pei Jingjing nodded and went back to his home.

After a little delay here, when Ji Jiangzhou returned home a little later, as soon as he entered the door, he saw the two children who had been intimate with him in the car just now surrounded Si Tian.

Ji Ningyi showed off his newly bought paintbrushes one by one, and tried the colors on paper, Si Tian nodded, "This color is so beautiful, Ning Yi really knows how to buy it."

Ji Zhile took out her funny egg, broke it open and showed it to Si Tian.

Si Tian had never been in contact with such a child's toy before. Seeing Ji Zhile open it, there were not only food but also something to play with, and she was also surprised: "How does this work?"

Veteran player Ji Zhile immediately explained: "The toy can be assembled according to the instructions, just like this."

Si Tian was shocked, no wonder Ji Zhile liked to buy it so much, there was a reason for it.

Ji Zhile saw that she was surprised that she had never seen the world, and immediately generously took out a new funny egg from her pocket and gave it to her: "Give it to Mom."

Si Tian took it, held it in her hand and looked at it: "Thank you."

Ji Zhile looked up and saw Ji Jiangzhou: "Father is back."

He picked up the funny egg that he broke open just now, ran up to Dundun with half of the snacks, and handed it to Ji Jiangzhou: "Give Dad a piece of chocolate."

Ji Jiangzhou didn't speak, and glanced at the whole egg in Si Tian's hand.

Ji Zhile blinked: "Don't you want it, Dad?"

"If you don't want me, I'll eat it." As soon as the words finished, Ji Zhile picked up a chocolate ball and stuffed it into his mouth.

Ji Jiangzhou was silent, and gave his mother a whole funny egg and his father a piece of chocolate inside, but he didn't answer, and he didn't even have a piece of chocolate.

Seeing this scene, Si Tian couldn't help laughing, and then got the blank eyes of the two children.

Si Tian said, "Zhi Le, your father might want a whole funny egg."

Ji Zhile hesitated: "Is that so..."

But originally he only had nine, so he gave one to his mother, used another one in the car, broke one in his hand, now there are only six, and if he gives it to his father, there will only be five.

Ji Jiangzhou said, "No need."

Ji Zhile breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said, "Father said he didn't want it."

Then he returned to Si Tian with the half egg in his hand, and continued to teach her how to spell the toy inside.

Ji Jiangzhou lost all anger when he saw this scene. This is really his good son, and he treated him differently.

Si Tian raised her head and asked, "What about my gift?"

She reminded: "Didn't you say you would bring me a gift too?"

Ji Ning suddenly thought that they were in the mall, and his father bought something for them, but he didn't buy something for his mother. Because he was afraid that his mother would be sad, Ji Ning immediately said: "Mom, I will give you my brush."

Ji Zhile also said, "I'll give you my instant noodles."

Ji Jiangzhou looked at his boss Tian's eyes, with a narrow smile inside, his pupils were clear, he took out a small box from his pocket, and handed it to Si Tian: "Your."

Si Tian didn't expect Ji Jiangzhou to be really prepared, and her plan to embarrass Ji Jiangzhou failed.

The two children were looking forward to Si Tian's gift, because they didn't see their father buying it today, why did they have it, and what was it?

Si Tian opened the box under the expectant eyes of the two children. It was a ring dotted with a pigeon egg diamond, and Si Tian immediately felt that she was overwhelmed.

Ji Zhile still didn't know the value of it. He took a look and thought it was neither edible nor fun. Seeing his mother's surprised look, Ji Zhile said, "Mom, I'd better exchange it with you for a funny egg."

The funny eggs cost ten yuan each, which must be very cheap in my mother's hands. In order to make my mother happy, Ji Zhile bravely made a sacrifice.

As soon as Ji Ning was older, he knew it was a ring, and rings were very expensive, so he said, "Mom won't change it."

Ji Zhile didn't believe it, and asked Si Tian, ​​"Does Mommy want to change with me?"

Si Tian is not stupid, of course she shook her head: "No change."

Ji Zhile didn't quite understand: "Why, it's obviously more fun to play with funny eggs."

Si Tian wants to say that you are too young and too naive to know that pigeon eggs can buy thousands of funny eggs.

Ji Ningyi has already taken the initiative to answer Ji Zhile's question: "Because the ring was given by my father, it is very precious, so my mother will not change it with you."

Ji Zhile still didn't quite understand: "The funny eggs are also very precious, and they cost two hundred yuan." He didn't give it to him when he asked for it, because he thought that his father could buy a lot of money by earning money outside, but his mother couldn't.

Ji Ning thought for a while, and made full use of the hearsay and miscellaneous book knowledge at school, and said: "Because the ring represents love, Dad gave Mom a ring because Dad loves Mom very much. Mom won't change it with you because Mom I love Dad very much."

Si Tian, ​​who was next to her, lost control of her expression when she heard this sentence, Ning Yi, are you overthinking it?

However, Ji Zhile still half understood, looked at her, and asked innocently: "Is that so, Mom?"

Si Tian's hand holding the ring was completely frozen, her expression blank.
