Xu Shi 'an's improvement was visible to the naked eye. Xu Qing and Xu Jin had been dragging him down. Now that he took the initiative, although he was not as good as the top few in class, at least his grades had stabilized. This also confirmed Xu Qing's suspicion that he was deliberately lazy, and he was secretly looking for opportunities to educate him.
This year, when school reopened, Ah Qing had already become an art student. Apart from a few people who were close to him, not many people noticed.
Xu Jin only knew that Shi 'an's deskmate had disappeared. He heard that she had transferred to the art class.
After school, she packed her bag and found a piece of paper in an old book. She did not know when it had been put in, but when she unfolded it, it turned out to be a pencil sketch.
On the top of a towering mountain stood a female swordsman with a sword on her back. Her long hair fluttered in the wind. Looking at her profile, she looked very similar to her, standing alone on the top of the mountain.
Xu Jin held it in her hand and looked at it for a long time. Finally, she smiled. She did not ask who had put it in, and did not even mention it. She just put it in the middle of the desk.
After finishing her homework for the day, she came out to the living room. Xu Qing was scratching his head and explaining to Jiang He that he did not have other women.
Because the weather was good today, he had a sudden impulse to flirt with Jiang He. He sent her a voice message saying, "Pretty girl, I've been paying attention to you for a long time. Let's have dinner together."
Then, Jiang He angrily asked who he had sent it to.
"Grandma hasn't posted those rumors recently. See, I told you to explain to her more. She will definitely understand."
Xu Jin poured a glass of water and took out his phone to look at it while drinking. He could not help but feel proud of his achievement.
As the smartest person in the family, it was necessary to help them get rid of their illiteracy.
"Oh, she created a new group. She did not add you," Xu Shi 'an said.
Xu Jin:???
She suddenly understood why her grandfather and father were always as quiet as chickens, not making a single sound.
"Okay, okay, I'll help you look after the flower shop. We'll go tomorrow." Xu Qing raised his hands in surrender to Jiang He. This woman just wanted him to look after the shop while she went fishing with Gong Ping.
Too bad.
Jiang He was satisfied. He pulled up the voice message again. Xu Qing's coquettish voice came from it.
"Beauty, I've been paying attention to you for a long time. Let's have a meal together."
"Sure." Jiang He pressed the speak button and waved at the siblings. "We're not cooking today. Your dad is taking us out to eat."
"That's too much …" Xu Jin felt pity for his father.
"Let's go, I want to eat barbecue!"
Xu Shi 'an jumped up from the sofa.
…
The family of four changed their clothes and went out. They walked on the streets of Jiangcheng in the evening. In recent years, Jiangcheng had vigorously developed greenery, and the environment was very good.
"Shi 'an, have you thought about where you're going to be tested?" Xu Qing asked. He had originally thought that this brat's hard work would only last for a short period of time, but in the end, he actually persevered.
"Los Angeles University," Xu Shi 'an said.
"Have you thought about it?"
"I have."
"Is it because of Xiaoxiao?" Xu Jin asked.
Xu Shi 'an chuckled and walked next to Xu Qing. Their heights were already less than half a head apart, but the childishness on their faces was still there.
"I originally wanted to stay in Jiangcheng, closer to home. But after thinking about it, I feel that Los Angeles University is not a bad choice." He looked at Xu Qing. "Dad, what do you think?"
"If you can get in, then go."
Xu Qing did not look at him. This brat was like him, the kind who was content with a little bit of wealth. Now that Xiaoxiao was pushing Shi 'an, it would be better if he could get into Los Angeles University — anyway, he could come back if he wanted to.
As the siblings grew older, the differences between them became more obvious. Xu Shi 'an was becoming more and more like the two of them — lazy, easily satisfied, and liked a stable life.
On the other hand, Xu Jin, perhaps because he had always been at the top of the class since school, had developed a competitive spirit. He wanted to be first in everything and show off his abilities.
"What about you, Jin?"
"Law school."
Xu Jin glanced at his brother. "Shi 'an likes to fight so much. I have to study hard and teach him about it."
"… Sister, you're the one who likes it." Xu Shi 'an felt wronged. She was the one who was the most excited when they fought.
"Who?" Xu Jin raised his head and glared at him. Xu Shi 'an said helplessly, "I, I, I like to fight."
"That's more like it. I care about you so much."
Jiang He was very pleased to see the deep bond between the siblings. Xu Qing had a complicated expression on his face.
Xu Jin wanted to be a lawyer …
He could fight, talk, and was well-versed in the law. He seemed to be more terrifying than Jiang He, because Jiang He was stupid.
Jiang He was very happy. Although she was not good at studying, her daughter was good. Xu Qing could no longer claim to be the most educated and the smartest in the family.
The two young people walked in front while Xu Qing and Jiang He lagged behind. He suddenly held Jiang He's hand. Jiang He glanced at Xu Qing and held his hand.
Unknowingly, they had been together for twenty years. Their children were about to be fully grown.
Xu Qing hooked his little finger on her palm. Jiang He smiled and looked away. It was as if they had returned to their youth.
"Lecher."
"I didn't give birth to five children." Xu Qing whispered, "You're not ugly either."
"Then what should I call you? Little gangster? "
"Call me hero."
"Beat me first." Jiang He snorted. This person did not know shame. How old was he to call him hero?
"It's not like I haven't called you hero before …"
"Dad! Mom! Walk faster! "Xu Shi 'an shouted in front.
Xu Jin turned around and saw the two of them whispering to each other. She could not help but pout.
Sour smell.
Everyone in the family was like that, even Shi 'an.
She glared at Xu Shi 'an and moved away from him.
Xu Shi 'an was confused. He did not know how he had offended her.
"Sister, are you jealous?"
"Why would I be jealous?"
"That deskmate of mine might have a crush on you. Think of a way to beat him up and make him your boyfriend. He won't be able to resist."
"Get lost."
Xu Jin clenched her fists and made Xu Shi 'an shut up.
In the future, she would find someone who would lie to her in a foreign language and she would use force to threaten him.
But not now.
"It's true. It would be great to have a relationship in high school. You don't have to look at me and Xiaoxiao like a single dog every day. Xiaoxiao is embarrassed by your stares …" Xu Shi 'an nagged. He did not feel that his mouth was dry.
"Brother, you'll get angry if you talk too much."
"It's okay. I just drank a big glass of water at home. I'm not thirsty. Sister, you can't be too violent. Someone gave you a love letter and almost got beaten up by you. He didn't mean any harm … Hey! How can you just hit me like that! "
The sister and brother chased each other on the sidewalk.
"I've told you that talking makes people angry! Makes people angry! But you don't believe me! "
Xu Jin chased after Xu Shi 'an and beat him up, as if he was exasperated that Xu Shi' an had not lived up to his expectations.
"Beat him up. You should teach your younger brother a good lesson!" Qin Hao passed by on his patrol motorcycle. He could not help but stop and applaud.
When he saw Shi 'an getting beaten up by Xu Jin, he was so happy that he wanted to grab some melon seeds and carry a stool.
"Father-in-law, you can't do this …" Xu Shi 'an did not forget to talk dirty. Qin Hao's dark face immediately darkened.
"I'll ask Xiaoxiao to delete you from her friend list when we get back!"
