Qiaoqiao means obedient.
He said he would not bring luggage, but he really only brought his mobile phone and charger. When he got into the passenger seat, he stuck his head out and smiled sweetly at Lao Song's family:
"Mom, Dad, Teacher Song, Teacher Tang, Teacher Xin, seventh cousin, Aunt Lianhua, brother Yanping, sister Tian Tian... I am accompanying my sister to the imperial capital! She is not safe as a girl!"
The last line talks about a sense of security, which I guess I also learned from TV dramas. But Zhang Yanping couldn't help but rolled his eyes:
"You don't know how to drive, so you might as well take me with you. At least you can drive alternately."
Qiao Qiao became proud: "But I am diligent! I can move boxes for my sister! Brother Yanping, you are so lazy!"
Zhang Yanping:! ! ! What is laziness? Is that what he calls lazy? Which one is scarcer, those who work hard or those who work hard, tell me!
But Song Tan, the one who was so arrogant, would only say to Qiao Qiao: "Don't stick your head out of the car window."
Then the car started, and the dilapidated pickup truck roared away from the yard.
There were obviously many people in the family, but everyone fell silent, as if the whole courtyard was quiet.
…
There is inevitably some fog in the mountains in winter. The dilapidated pickup truck traveling on the winding road is no longer as bumpy as it used to be. This makes Qiaoqiao, who has already held the handle in advance, a little disappointed:
"I won't jump up when I'm in the car now..."
Song Tan burst out laughing: "You thought we were going to play on the trampoline... Let's talk about it first. I really don't have time to take you to play this time. My sister is busy."
Qiaoqiao turned to look at her, and then smiled stupidly: "No, I know it's hard for my sister, but you used to go out and it would take more than half a year to come back... I couldn't bear to let you go."
He was a little embarrassed: "I want to be with my sister and don't want you to go to work and school so far away. After you go to school, no one in the village will play with me..."
The loss in his voice was not obvious. After all, for a child, colorful memories are enough to cover everything.
But Song Tan instantly softened his heart.
Yes, when she went to college, several of her peers in the village were going to school and working, but there were no young people left.
In such a big and empty village, apart from the old people and uncles and aunts, there is only one child, Qiao Qiao...
It's normal for him to feel lonely.
But he still said helplessly: "When I go out this time, I may be back in three or four days."
Qiao Qiao shook her head: "Three or four days is a long time! Brother Yanping said that it takes more than nine hours to drive. It is so hard. I will accompany my sister and I can show you the road."
He was very planning: "Sister, you can sleep when you are tired from driving. I will call you when the car comes."
Song Tan: ...You are such a smart little guy who dares to think and do! But even though your sister and I are no longer mortal, I can’t bear your company like this!
She made up her mind to drive seriously this time!
However, she wanted to concentrate on it. Qiaoqiao was doing nothing in the car and started chatting again: "Sister, you gave your brother from the Imperial Capital so many things. Do you like him very much?"
Song Tan nodded: "He helped me very, very much. Without him, maybe..." Maybe she would be overturned by the explosion just after she was reborn. Even if she could practice, her soul would be unstable and she would not be able to practice for several years. Just getting back to normal.
And a family as fragile and poor as theirs cannot afford such consumption and rumors...
And Qiao Qiao, how did she know that her Qiao Qiao was such a smart child before she hired him a tutor?
As for the "like" that Qiao Qiao said, it is not the same thing as the love between men and women.
Song Tan smiled: "Without his help, our life might be a little bad at the beginning."
Qiao Qiao seemed to understand.
"But you will give him whatever you have at home. Will you like him more than me?"
Song Tan thought for a while, slowed down the car, and then told him: "Never."
"In our family, I will always
I like you the most, even more than my parents. "
When Qiao Qiao was still a baby, her parents were busy in the fields, and Song Tan, who was seven or eight years old, took this fair and cute child in such ignorance, stumbling and growing up step by step in this poor mountain village.
In summer, she desperately grabbed the silly baby who almost fell into the water tank.
In autumn, the siblings cuddled together and looked at the rain eaves on the porch quietly.
In winter, the growing Qiaoqiao would point to her frostbitten hands and cry and say it hurt...
Other children may also have this kind of half-body intimacy, but as they grow up, desires, hobbies, interests, studies, survival, comparison... all kinds of pressures are intertwined, and this childhood emotion will eventually dilute.
But Song Tan can't do it, and neither can Qiao Qiao.
His purity caused him to lose a lot, but also allowed him to gain more love than others.
Her parents are her biological ties, and Qiaoqiao is her spiritual support.
Qiao Qiao blushed. He was so happy and excited, his eyes were shining with stars, filled with the purest happiness.
Then he was a little hesitant: "Okay...you don't have to like me the most, just like me the same as you like your parents."
Song Tan laughed loudly: "Silly boy! Okay! I listen to you and I like it all the same!"
This is not a multiple-choice question, just attachment to home. This attachment prompted her to stay in the new world for a hundred years, and the anchor of all her wishes was still here.
Qiaoqiao was so happy that he couldn't sit still. He squirmed around in the passenger seat. After a while, he sighed again: "I should have brought a few more fish."
Song Tan was stunned: "Our fish will not participate in the selection."
Qiao Qiao lowered her head in embarrassment: "That brother has helped so much, but sister you don't like him that much, he will be sad. Our fish is delicious, and if my brother eats the fish, he may not be sad... "
He gritted his teeth and said sadly: "I can also give him a lamb! The lamb is so cute, he will definitely be happy."
Song Tan:......
"Okay, okay, little old man! At what age do you have to worry so much? It doesn't matter, I brought so many things to him! Then you can work harder and help people move into the house, okay?"
Qiao Qiao never refuses to work hard. At this moment, she nodded like a fool: "I will definitely move!"
Song Tan glanced at him and whispered: "It's a bit boring because we still have a long way to go, so you can go to sleep."
Qiao Qiao shook her head and took out her mobile phone: "Teacher Xin said you can read poetry when you are bored in the car."
Song Tan was amused: "It has to be you, Teacher Xin. No wonder I have recently begun to wonder who I like the most! Reading poetry is very good, romantic - what poem are you reading?"
Qiao Qiao puffed up his chest proudly. Although he was suppressed by the seat belt, it did not affect his courage:
"Teacher Xin said that young people are full of high spirits. They can read Qinglian Sword Fairy, but they should also read ***'s poems!"
