The next morning, Du Wenjuan came to pick up the child to the zoo at 7:30, and was a little surprised to see the neat living room.

"Does Mr. Jiang have a girlfriend?"

"No, Xingwang and I cleaned up together," Jiang Wangping said straightly: "He has always been very good at housework."

It may also be used to cover the rent through housework in disguise.

The child didn't stop smiling when he saw his mother, and he deliberately took her to his room to read the final exam papers, the teacher's workbook full of five-pointed stars, and the butterfly flowers stacked in the handmade class, as if he wanted to Find out every day that you are invisible to her.

Then before leaving, she hugged Jiang Wang very hard.

"Bye bye!"

"Bye," Jiang Wang yawned: "Have fun."

Du Wenjuan glanced at her husband who was on the phone at the entrance of the stairs, and smiled apologetically.

"Mr. Jiang is free in the afternoon?" She crossed her hands on Xingwang's chest, as if afraid that the child would get lost: "I have... fear of heights, I can't play many projects, let the children go It's not good to go alone."

"Huh? Yes," Jiang Wang spoke very well, and after thinking about it, he said, "It's also lively with a lot of people, why don't I call Teacher Shang Ji?"

"Okay, okay," the woman was relieved: "I'm afraid I can't find a topic, and I've worked hard for you today."

When the two of them picked up the child, Jiang Wang stretched and went downstairs to buy some early and went upstairs to find Ji Linqiu.

The city of a is very small, and it is good to visit the zoo for an hour and a half.

People also know that there are not many foreign animals to watch. They basically make money by feeding projects. Black swans, alpacas, tigers, and black bears can be fed with anything. They also have a lot of meat delivered through barbed wire. long fork.

When Jiang Wang first came here, he accompanied Peng Xingwang once. The monkey mountain was in a mess, and the camels were ridden every day with impatient faces, and occasionally spit on people.

At that time, he also wanted to have a good relationship with the children, so as not to be regarded as an adult peddler all the time, he bought four buckets of multigrain feed from the peddler, just to feed the pigeons and quickly squat out the hemorrhoids.

Thinking of this, the man couldn't help laughing and knocked on Teacher Ji's door with soy milk fritters.

Ji Linqiu likes to stay up late, and she hasn't woken up yet, so she knocks for half a minute before slowly opening the door.

As soon as the door opened, there was no stuffy and musty odor that is common in male dormitories, but a wind mixed with the fragrance of gardenias gushed out.

"Morning," Ji Linqiu's voice was a little hoarse: "The child is gone?"

"Going to the zoo to play," Jiang Wang handed him the soy milk fritters, leaning against the door frame: "They went to Honghe Park to play in the afternoon, the mother said they dare not sit high, I hope I accompany him on."

Ji Linqiu didn't answer, and she looked like she was smiling again.

"And then Brother Jiang wants me to accompany?"

"How dare I bother you," Jiang Wang said boldly: "Mr. Ji's vacation is precious, and teacher training is needed in two days. It's time to make up for sleep."

Ji Linqiu still refused to pick up, and deliberately wanted to embarrass him for a while.

The big tail wolf is very tough: "Real men never ride on a merry-go-round."

"I'm mainly," the man coughed: "I'm afraid you're too lonely, right?"

Ji Linqiu blinked: "Do I look lonely?"

"Well, as long as Teacher Ji is single, I have the obligation to greet you more to go out to play, you just have two meals, which is more cost-effective."

Mr. Ji took the breakfast, raised it and looked carefully at the fritters inside: "I like to eat buns."

"Next time, definitely." Jiang Wang's tail cocked up again: "I'll buy you twenty kinds of stuffing, eat them until they are round."

The two made an appointment to meet, one went back to sleep and the other went out to check the account, and they were in a good mood.

Peng Xingwang dragged her mother all the way to talk about the school, she was very interested and very happy to see her listening to everything with a smile.

Chang Hua walked beside them, occasionally cheering for the venue and ending a few words.

The zoo is not big, you can see the panorama after a fifteen minute walk.

Peng Xingwang has an inexplicable feeling of being a host. He must bring two adults to have fun and not be bored. When he sees a hawker selling corn kernels, he specially greets him.

"Let's feed the swans!"

Du Wenjuan rushed to buy a small cup, mainly watching Peng Xingwang feed the goose, and then took him to take pictures together.

After a while, I went around to Monkey Mountain, and there were scenic spots pushing cars around.

"Feeding the monkeys is also very fun!" The child smiled and said, "Some monkeys even salute, I saw it when I came with Brother Jiang last time!"

Chang Hua used to buy a feeding bowl full of banana segments, and when he brought it back, he mocked: "A bowl costs fifteen? You really know how to do business, and you save money for the monkeys' feed."

Du Wenjuan smiled awkwardly: "After all, there are labor costs."

The man snorted, still feeling that opening the zoo would make a lot of money.

Peng Xingwang was a little embarrassed, he reached out and touched the two hundred dollars in his pocket, thinking that it was a pity that my brother gave pocket money in advance today.

In fact, he has saved a lot of pocket money, but his brother insists on giving it.

The bird watching area is very noisy, the parrot myna has been bickering, and many people are taking photos with the sunflower parrot.

While chatting with her mother, Peng Xingwang quietly looked at Uncle Chang's expression and found that the other party was not interested and kept yawning.

"Let's go see the alpacas? It's fun over there!"

"Okay," Du Wenjuan was also very happy today, laughing so much that crow's feet appeared: "Mom likes this too, you take me there."

Peng Xingwang nodded and led her forward quickly.

"Slow down!" Chang Hua said, "Your mother is tired."

Peng Xingwang was stunned, thinking that he was negligent.

Du Wenjuan's eyes showed some hesitation, she nodded and said, "Xingxing, let's go slowly."

The alpacas take a leisurely walk in a small lawn. There are always many children here on weekends, and there are a few classmates who happen to be Peng Xingwang.

"Xingwang?! You came to the zoo today too!"

"This is my mother!" Peng Xingwang was afraid that they would not see it, and said proudly: "I said earlier, my mother is very beautiful, right!!"

"It's so cool!"

"Hello Auntie! Xingwang is very good at school!"

"Did you really have the Dalmatians in the movie??"

The children looked at Chang Hua curiously: "By the way, who is he?"

Chang Hua's eyes changed slightly and looked at Du Wenjuan inquiringly.

"It's Uncle Chang," Du Wenjuan and the parents of several classmates nodded and explained with a smile, "I came here to play with Xingwang on purpose today."

Chang Hua pouted.

While chatting, the manager came over with a cart loaded with fruit and fodder.

"Twenty yuan a cup! It's gone when sold out, come and feed the alpacas!"

"Children, let's see what alpacas like to eat!"

The children hula and run to surround the car, and Peng Xingwang also runs over when he hears the sound.

"Stop!" Chang Hua frowned and stopped: "It's been fed three times, what are you in a hurry?"

Du Wenjuan opened her mouth to speak, and Chang Hua said again: "You have to be sensible, and your mother came to see you specially. You should just play with your mother more, and there is no need to spend such unjust money."

Peng Xingwang stood there in a daze, holding a hundred from his pocket in his palm.

Du Wenjuan was shocked when she saw it clearly: "Baby, where did you get the money?"

"Yes... it was given by my brother." Peng Xingwang lowered his head and said, "Then we won't feed it."

"This is obedient. In the future, when you go to live with your mother, you must learn to be diligent and thrifty." Chang Hua said with satisfaction: "We are not poor, but the money has to be spent."

He motioned to Du Wenjuan to take the two hundred, led the two of them to bid farewell to the children, and continued onward.

"Your cousin is very rich, what business does he do?"

Du Wenjuan was very upset and wanted to return the money to Jiang Wang later: "I'm not too sure... It seems that he opened a bookstore."

"Hey, bookstores are so profitable now?"

The child panicked for a while, and whispered to his mother: "Can we live together in the future?!"

"Isn't it great?" Du Wenjuan looked gentle: "Mom has always missed you very much, and will come to you as soon as the work and residence settle down."

Peng Xingwang briefly paused for breathing, as if a spell had finally been lifted.

Mom doesn't want me anymore, she is busy with other things, my brother really didn't lie to me.

Chang Hua called at eleven o'clock at noon, but Jiang Wang deliberately delayed for a while to say that the company had something to do, and came to pick him up at twelve o'clock.

He deliberately drove a more spacious business car, and first saw Peng Xingwang's expression when picking up people.

Ji Linqiu sat in the co-pilot and looked at it for a while: "There are people who talk and laugh, and they seem to get along well."

Three people came up one after another, and the car turned around and drove towards the western restaurant next to the park.

Peng Xingwang was also tired. After he got up, he drank half the bottle of water, and then he seemed to remember some good news, and happily lay down beside Jiang Wang.

"Brother! Mom said she wanted to pick me up!"

Jiang Wang paused for a few seconds, then said naturally: "Good thing, you don't have to worry about writing in the future."

Du Wenjuan couldn't help but apologize again: "It's hard for you to take care of Xingxing for so long, it's really troublesome for you two."

"When we pick up Xingwang tomorrow, you can rest for a while."

Peng Xingwang was stunned.

"Tomorrow?"

"Of course it's tomorrow," Chang Hua saw that the child was a little scared: "Don't worry, uncle will find our best elementary school for you. There are foreigners among the English teachers."

Ji Linqiu smiled and handed the child the freshly baked chocolate bread.

"You're hungry, let's take a nap."

Peng Xingwang said thank you, took it with both hands, and his attention was not diverted.

"Why tomorrow?"

"Because adults have to go to work on Monday," Du Wenjuan apologized: "After becoming an adult, there will be no winter and summer vacations, and I have to work from Monday to Friday."

"Don't be afraid of the stars, let's go to Cizhou for a while," she said softly, "If you're not used to it... It's easy to say when you come back."

"It must be a habit," Chang Hua said, "ours are much better than this."

Peng Xingwang didn't expect this matter to be so urgent, and his mind hadn't turned back for a while.

It is equivalent to saying that he will study in another city in the second grade, and all the friends he just met will not be seen.

More importantly…

"Will my brother go to Cizhou?"

"Probably not," Jiang Wang said, looking at the light at the intersection, "but Teacher Ji and I will come to see you, and we will definitely."

Ji Linqiu glanced at him and nodded tacitly.

"The teacher will miss you very much."

Peng Xingwang was a little anxious, but he didn't know what to say, so he called his brother loudly.

"Here." Jiang Wang looked at him through the rearview mirror.

Peng Xingwang suddenly felt sad, and reached out to hug his shoulder.

"Brother," he murmured, "Do I really want to leave tomorrow?"

Jiang Wanglai had a good psychological construction on the way, but now he is suddenly relentless and unprincipled.

Ji Linqiu gave him a disapproving look.

I need to cut through the mess. Jiang Wang thought so. If the delay is too long, both sides of the child will not be able to let go, and the problem is even bigger.

"You can also slow down, you can stay for another ten days and a half a month, I'll find a time to send you there."

Peng Xingwang panicked.

He suddenly felt that ten days and a half months was not enough.

But his mother was right beside him, and he said it was a betrayal to want to stay.

"Can't my brother go to Cizhou?"

Jiang Wang shook his head.

"I work here."

It is impossible for him to integrate into Du Wenjuan's life, nor for the stars.

Du Wenjuan felt that the child was in a wrong mood, so she hurriedly said, "It's alright, let's have fun today, and we'll discuss it tomorrow."

Chang Hua responded absentmindedly.

The afternoon sun is very good, it is the right time to visit the park.

Red River Park is a combination of playground and walking occasions. There is no place like Happy Valley here, but there are some small entertainment facilities in a large park with an open space.

Du Wenjuan was afraid of heights, Chang Hua lacked interest, but two big men who had no blood relationship were playing with the child the whole time.

One rides on the merry-go-round, rides on the small roller coaster together, and then bumps around in the bumper car hall with the children in their arms, the three of them laughed loudly, as if they were born a family.

After finishing the projects that required tossing up and down, Du Wenjuan led Xingwang to fish for goldfish for craftsmanship, and Chang Hua sat next to him talking and laughing.

Jiang Wang breathed a sigh of relief, leaning against the street lamp to smoke.

"What about you?"

"No."

"Isn't it boring to teach?" Jiang Wang laughed: "It's pure, I thought you could learn everything."

Ji Linqiu was still looking at the mother and son by the goldfish pond, and said after a while, "She's not afraid of heights, is she."

"Well." The man glanced back and said lightly, "It's fine to take this node back."

No wonder she chose to pick up the stars at this time.

If you miss this time, you may not have a chance in the future.

"But then again, as his eldest brother, I can continue to care about him." Jiang Wang suddenly remembered something: "Xiaoshengchu, junior high, plus the whole college entrance examination questions, I am here. Can you wrap it around?"

"When he transfers to another school, I will see that the child rounds up their school counseling schoolbag by the way."

Ji Linqiu sighed deeply: "That's... so sweet."

The two talked for a while, Ji Linqiu went over to play with Peng Xingwang to play glue, and Du Wenjuan came over to drink some water to rest.

Du Wenjuan looked at her husband who was answering the phone in the distance, and said with emotion: "It's not easy to bring children, you two are really patient, Teacher Ji is really kind."

Jiang Wang hummed and changed the subject: "Actually... this child sleeps and sometimes trembles in the middle of the night."

"I found it several times when I tucked him in the quilt. Sometimes when I went to the toilet at night, I would see the small light in his bedroom on."

"Probably because I was always beaten in the past," the man lowered his eyes and said, "Although he is a lot more cheerful now, he still dreams of bad things."

"However, with you by his side, I may gradually stop having nightmares in the future."

Du Wenjuan's eyes immediately turned red, and just as she was about to agree, an old couple with a child came over not far away.

"Wen Juan?! Is that Wen Juan??"

"Hey, Grandpa Huang!"

The old couple were very happy to see Wen Juan who had grown up, and they saw Jiang Wang standing next to her, and they kept praising.

"You cousin, amazing, amazing!"

"He opened several bookstores in our city and donated a lot of money. He is a great man!"

Jiang Wang was suddenly exaggerated, and his ears were hot next to his young mother.

"Don't be so polite." He tried to stop: "It's all trivial."

"Hey, Wenjuan, if you have time to tell your brother about the marriage, my niece is very nice!" The old grandfather persevered and gave a thumbs up: "You are so handsome. Hey! He has a good heart and works well, and he even gave us old people eggs!"

Du Wenjuan held back a smile and bid farewell to the two old men, looked at their backs and said, "That's great."

"I envy you very much." She turned to look at Jiang Wang, and admired from the bottom of her heart: "You can do business you like, make friends everywhere, and you are very free."

Jiang Wang's ears were too hot, his face was a little red, he coughed and pretended to be okay: "You can too, you are only in your early thirties, now there are many opportunities."

"Me," Du Wenjuan smiled with a bit of difficulty: "I can see at a glance how old I am."

"But it's all right. Now that I have received the stars, I have one less regret." She said gently: "You also take care of yourself. It's very hard to run around alone."

Jiang Wang looked at his mother's young face, something was melting and rolling in the depths of his chest.

It was as if something he had deliberately ignored had fallen out of the safe and dangled in his empty chest.

"Well, yes."

"They are all family, even if the surname is Jiang, they are still my relatives," Du Wenjuan said solemnly: "We will keep in touch in the future."

Peng Xingwang played all day, and went back to Jiang Wang's house to sleep as usual at night.

Ji Linqiu left early after dinner, and Jiang Wang sat with them for a long time before taking Peng Xingwang home.

When he returned to his familiar and warm home, the man was stunned for a while, and then he reminded Peng Xingwang.

"It's time for you to pack."

"You can take anything you like with you. Brother, please bring a suitcase for you."

The child didn't move after hearing the words, and stood there not knowing what to do.

Jiang Wang squatted down so that he could look at himself.

"What's wrong?"

Peng Xingwang's eyes turned red.

"I don't know," he shook his head quickly: "I don't know what to do."

He wanted to say that brother, I don't want to leave, but he should be with his mother, and all children in the world will be with his mother.

—and his mother has come to pick him up.

Jiang Wang condemned himself for being completely unprincipled, touched the child's head and said, "Then don't accept it."

"Just treat it like you are going on a trip with your mother, go to a new place to play for a few days, and come back to see your brother when you are tired?"

Peng Xingwang stared at him: "Can I really come back to see you and Teacher Ji?"

"Really, don't you remember my mobile phone number?" Jiang Wang has never been so gentle: "As long as you call me, I will come to see you on the plane."

"Why?" The child said blankly, "Mom picked me up, and your mission is over."

"It's too numb," Jiang Wang couldn't help him, rubbed his face and said, "Go and take a bath."

Du Wenjuan was worried that the children would not be able to get along with them, so she bought a ticket for 5:30 in the afternoon, but now it seems that it is too late.

Jiang Wang only brought some change of clothes for the child, and basically did not bring any toys or books. The only thing that he remembered repeatedly was to remind the child to take all his summer homework with him.

Ji Linqiu didn't wait for Jiang Wang to ask this time, and took the initiative to say goodbye together.

Du Wenjuan specially gave them two boxes of Cizhou specialties when she left, holding Peng Xingwang tightly with a smile and relaxing.

"See you when you are free, we will take good care of the stars."

The child was still staring at the two of them, Ji Linqiu saying goodbye across the wicket.

"We won't buy a standing ticket to go in and wait. You are all familiar with it."

Jiang Wang was still a little reluctant. Seeing that the child was about to enter the station, he squatted down and spread his arms.

"Come on, brother!"

Peng Xingwang rushed over with his bag on his back and kissed his face hard.

"Brother, I will miss you! I will miss you very much after only one day's walk!"

"Okay, the time is up," Chang Hua knew that he couldn't fit in with them, and frequently looked at his watch: "The hard seat is easy to be robbed of the luggage rack, we have to queue up early."

Peng Xingwang asked curiously, "Do I have a seat too?"

"You sit on the box, it's less than 1.4 meters, so you don't need to make up the ticket."

Jiang Wang watched them disappear at the security checkpoint, and suddenly felt cold after standing for a while.

The world has become too quiet, and he can't slow down.

"Let's go," Ji Linqiu said, "No thanks, I know you're lonely."

"I still owe you eight thousand words for the teacher's experience." Jiang Wang sighed: "I haven't written a composition in eight hundred years, so copying one online is not enough."

"Of course not," Ji Linqiu took the car keys in his hand: "Go for a drink?"

Jiang Wang was still looking at the wicket, and when he turned back, he became ruffian, as if he didn't care about anything.

"I'm poor these two days, Teacher Ji please."

"OK."

On the other end, Du Wenjuan sat on the innermost side of the seat, and Chang Hua put a few boxes on the luggage rack with a little effort.

"Wait over there," he wiped his sweat and said, "You sleep on the sofa for a few days, and then make a small bed when I vacate the study."

"When you arrive at the new school, you have to listen to the class carefully and make your mother feel good." The middle-aged man patted his head, thought about it, and took out the apple in his backpack: "Are you hungry? Wait? Will I give you instant noodles?"

Peng Xingwang first shook his head, and then he reacted.

"I haven't figured out whether to transfer or not." He said in surprise, "Didn't you say it's going to be a few days first?"

"Just kidding," Chang Hua saw that all the children got in the car, and didn't bother to hide it any more: "You still want to come back here? Your mother is already in Cizhou, why are you coming back."

"But brother—" Peng Xingwang became anxious: "Brother said it."

Du Wenjuan's face changed slightly and wanted to stop him: "Don't do this."

"The car is about to drive, why are you still coaxing?" Chang Hua frowned: "I'm eight years old, and I didn't send him to suffer, so there's no need to be so careful."

The train whistle blared loudly at the scene, like a horn on the eve of war.

Peng Xingwang's face turned pale, he suddenly turned around and ran away.

He was instinctively scared and instinctively felt that he had to leave here quickly.

"Star Look!"

"Come back! The car is going!!"

The child almost knocked over the uncle who was holding the instant noodles, jumped off the train in a panic, and ran all the way to the ticket gate.

Du Wenjuan got up and tried to chase, but the train was moving slowly.

"Star Watch—!!"

Meanwhile, Jiang forgot to wait for the roasted kidney to serve.

He fluctuated too much today and was very hungry at night.

Ji Linqiu brought two cans of cold beer and glanced at the crayfish on the next table.

"Let's have a pot too," he hesitated a little: "I'm not very fond of spicy food."

"If you are a man, eat spicy food." Jiang Wang patted the table and said, "Do it!"

Beer had not been opened when the phone rang suddenly.

"Jiang Wang! Xingxing has run away! Go and find him!!"

"Run? He's not with you—"

"Chang Hua said something that shouldn't be said before driving, and the child was frightened and ran out of the car, go and find him!" Du Wenjuan was already crying in a hurry: "The train station It's such a mess, there are a lot of traffickers, please go, I'll find a way to come back!"

"Don't worry, I'll go over now," Jiang Wang got up and said, "It's okay, he has two hundred dollars in his pocket, he knows how to take a taxi back."

Du Wenjuan's face was no longer bloody: "Didn't Chang Hua return the money to you?"

"Give me back?" Jiang Wang frowned, "Give me what?"

"Oops, the kid has no money! Go and find him!"
