Qin Ma pushed the door open and entered. She was stunned by the scene in the room.
Her son and daughter were lying on the bed, snuggling up to each other and sleeping soundly. Qin Ma was a gentle and kind woman, but her eyebrows still twitched fiercely.
Qin Bao Bao was sleeping soundly. Qin Ze, who was awake, was so scared that his liver trembled. He felt inexplicably guilty. He deliberately pretended that he had just woken up. He sat up and said in a daze, "How would I know where Qin Bao Bao went … Oh, so she's here. Mom, Qin Bao Bao is so annoying. She refused to leave last night. "
The quick-witted Qin Ze pushed the blame to his sister.
Qin Ma said in a low voice, "Bao Bao!"
Qin Ma saw that her daughter and son were fully dressed and was slightly relieved.
Qin Bao Bao woke up after being pushed by her brother a few times. She squinted her eyes and sat up with a dazed look on her face. When she saw her mother standing by the bed, her body quivered and her sleepiness disappeared. She mumbled, "Oh, Mom, it's all Qin Ze's fault. He insisted on chatting with me last night."
The quick-witted Qin Bao Bao pushed the blame to her brother.
Qin Ma's mouth twitched. "You're really siblings. Can't you be more serious? How old are you? Why are you still sleeping together? Nonsense! "
"Get up and wash up. We're waiting for you two to have breakfast."
Qin Ma reprimanded a few times and left with a frown.
Qin Bao Bao reached out and pulled her brother's ear. She said angrily, "Why didn't you lock the door? Why didn't you lock the door?"
Qin Ze retorted, "You were the one who entered my room. Why didn't you remember to lock the door?"
Qin Bao Bao said angrily, "Sister was sleeping with you. What's wrong with you locking the door?"
Qin Ze was so scared that he peed his pants. "F * ck, keep your voice down. If Dad hears us, we'll be dead."
Fortunately, it was his mother who pushed the door open. If it was his grandfather, he would have booked a German orthopedics bed.
After washing up, the two of them went to the living room. Grandpa Sheng was sitting in the main seat that symbolized the head of the family. On his left and right were Qin Ma and Wang Zijin. The old man glanced at his late children and frowned as he reprimanded them. "What time is it? You still need your mother to wake you up? Is this the attitude you should have at work?"
He then pointed at Wang Zijin and said, "Zijin has already woken up. Bao Bao, why are you still not coming out?"
Wang Zijin remained silent.
His sister and Qin Ze looked at each other, lowered their heads, and quickly sat down to eat the porridge. He looked like he had a guilty conscience.
Qin Ma saw this and her face was full of worry.
The son and daughter had been close since they were young, but they had grown up.
Qin Ze secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that his mother didn't say anything. He thanked his mother for not killing him.
Grandpa Sheng looked at his daughter and said, "Go back and quit your job. Find a better one."
Qin Bao Bao turned to look at her brother. Seeing his indifferent attitude, she hated him in her heart. "Dad, the contract hasn't expired yet. If we break the contract, we will have to pay."
"Fine." Grandpa Sheng slammed the table. "Our family doesn't lack this money."
Qin Bao Bao said weakly, "The penalty is three million."
Grandpa Sheng was a rare person who lacked ambition.
Qin Ze couldn't hold back and laughed.
Grandpa Sheng was angry. "What are you laughing at? Are you itching for a beating? Didn't you have enough last night?"
Qin Ze lowered his head and didn't say anything.
He and his sister had discussed countermeasures last night. Making a scene in front of Grandpa Sheng wouldn't work. When faced with a thorny problem, there were two ways to solve it: Force yourself on him or make him cook the rice.
Qin Baobao had already signed a contract with Star Art. With the contract, it was legally binding. No matter how unwilling the old man was, he had no choice but to accept it. Unless he could pay the penalty for breaching the contract or bear to see his daughter sued in court.
Grandpa Sheng was caught unprepared.
The ancient people who created these two idioms were really smart.
"What is this? What is this?" Grandpa Sheng slammed the table angrily.
Wang Zijin said softly, "Uncle, Bao Bao's conditions are very good. This path is very suitable. I know uncle's concerns. My family has some connections with the Shanghai Radio and Television Bureau. I will give them a call later and let them know. Don't worry, Bao Bao won't be bullied. "
Grandpa Sheng heard and quickly picked up a piece of pickled vegetable for Wang Zijin.
Grandpa Sheng was angry, but his children had grown up. He couldn't force his daughter to make decisions for her future like when they were still students. Although his children still respected him, there was nothing he could do if they disobeyed him.
Qin Ze knew that Wang Zijin was talking nonsense. She had already fallen out with her family. Her credit cards were frozen and her finances were blocked. She was just using the tiger's skin to pull the flag.
Looking at her calm and confident face, she was able to fool the highly skilled Old Master. This elder sister was not a naive, sweet, and naive woman.
After breakfast, Grandpa Sheng took his briefcase and went to school. Qin Ma was a full-time housewife and didn't work.
Qin Bao Bao went back to her room to practice her singing. Qin Ze went back to his room to immerse himself in the stock market.
In the living room, Wang Zijin and Qin Ma were chatting.
Qin Ze asked Wang Zijin why she didn't go to work. Wang Zijin said she was in a bad mood and took a day off.
Okay, as long as you're happy.
The TV was on and it was casually playing a period drama. These days, the quality of TV dramas was declining day by day. The special effects were mediocre and the plot was terrible. The selling points were all on the celebrities. However, they didn't have any acting skills and only relied on their faces.
"Zijin, I heard from Bao Bao that your family is in Beijing?" Qin Ma peeled an apple and handed it to Wang Zijin.
"Thank you, Auntie." Wang Zijin took the apple and took a bite. "Yes."
"What does your father do?" Qin Ma asked again.
Wang Zijin didn't leak anything. "My father is a civil servant. Two years ago, he was sent to Shanghai to work. I went to high school in Fudan University Affiliated High School. Bao Bao and I were deskmates."
Mrs. Qin finally understood. So he was the son of a government official. Since she was back in Beijing, it meant that she had been promoted. It seemed that this girl wasn't lying when she said that her family was related to the Shanghai Radio, Film and TV Bureau.
"Do you have a boyfriend?" Qin Ma asked again.
Wang Zijin was inexplicably embarrassed. These days, she had been listening to Qin Bao talking nonsense and trying to matchmake her and Qin Ze. When she turned her head and heard Qin Ma's question, she was particularly sensitive. She thought to herself, "Are you going to ask me what do you think of our son?"
"No." Wang Zijin smiled.
Qin Ma sighed. "In today's society, men are not in a hurry to get a wife. But women are different. While they are still young, they should find a good partner. When they become an old lady, no one will want them!"
No wonder her daughter was always unwilling to go on blind dates. It turned out that there was someone "accompanying" her. Birds of a feather flock together.
"Bao Bao is not reassuring. She is heartless and doesn't even care about marriage. As a mother, I am worried."
"Auntie, don't worry. I know a lot of handsome young men. I will introduce them to Bao Bao another day."
Wang Zijin was very good at chatting. She could always follow Qin Ma's train of thought and make her happy.
After chatting for less than half an hour, Qin Ma wanted to take her as her goddaughter.
Qin Ma took Wang Zijin's hand and walked into the master bedroom. She opened the photo album of her daughter and son when they were young and showed it to her.
In the morning sun, Wang Zijin put the photo album on her lap and looked down.
The first page was of Qin Bao and Qin Ze when they were babies. They were lying in the cradle with the same wrinkled little faces. Qin Ze was sleeping quietly, while Qin Bao was crying loudly.
The color of the two photos was different. They were not taken at the same time. Qin Bao Bao was three years older than Qin Ze.
On the second page, Qin Ze was still a baby in the cradle. Beside the crib, Qin Bao Bao was wearing a white princess dress. She was two or three years old. She bent down and kissed her brother's forehead.
On the third page, Qin Ze, who had just been weaned, was sitting in the bathtub. Qin Bao Bao was squatting beside him. She reached out and pinched her brother's little brother. Qin Ze was crying loudly.
On the fourth page, Qin Ze, who was in kindergarten, and Qin Bao Bao, who was in elementary school, were taking a photo side by side. They were both carrying small cloth bags. The elder sister hit her brother's head with a karate chop. When they were little, Qin Bao Bao had a big round face, while Qin Ze was thin and small.
On the fifth page, Qin Bao Bao was hugging Qin Ze's shoulder. The heads of the siblings were leaning against each other. In the photo, Qin Bao Bao had grown into a tall little beauty. Her face was no longer round, and her face was thin. Her facial features were beautiful, and her eyes were bright. Qin Ze still looked like a child. He was about 12 or 13 years old. He was shorter than Qin Bao Bao by a head.
On the sixth page, the photo was probably taken at the same time as the previous one. The two of them had not changed much. Qin Bao Bao was wearing a ballet dress. She looked like a beautiful and noble little swan. She was accompanied by an ugly duckling. The girl was playfully pulling her brother's face. The younger brother looked at his elder sister with disdain. The picture was frozen.
On the sixth page, the seventh page, the eighth page … Wang Zijin flipped through the photos quietly. It was as if she was looking at the childhood of Qin Bao Bao and Qin Ze. They were always laughing and fighting. Most of the time, it was the elder sister bullying the younger brother. Of course, there were also pictures of the younger brother turning the tables.
Until Qin Ze entered high school, the two of them rarely took photos together alone. It was either a family photo or standing in a well-behaved manner. Time urged people to grow up, and at the same time, it created an invisible barrier.
Every pair of siblings would grow apart as they grew up. They were no longer as close as they were when they were children.
Wang Zijin looked at the photos and suddenly felt a sense of loss. She couldn't figure out the reason. It was probably because of the sensitivity and fragility of female hipsters.
On second thought, she realized that it wasn't right. Normal siblings might be like this, but according to her feelings of being with them day and night, time didn't seem to have caused a gap between them. The "distance" in the photos was probably for their parents to see.
At noon.
After lunch, Qin Ze suggested that they go watch a movie. Wang Zijin gladly agreed.
"Miss, shall we ride a shared bike or take a taxi?" Qin Ze asked.
"Take a taxi. The weather is too hot. I don't want to ride a bike." Wang Zijin's expression was normal. She didn't react as exaggeratedly as Qin Bao Bao. Qin Ze thought to himself, "Sure enough, this title is poisonous to my sister."
He had lost more than thirty thousand yuan in the stock market today. It was all in the short term. He needed to be comforted by Miss Wang. Unless he could predict the future, he would definitely lose some money. The system explained, "The host's level is too low. Please work hard and help me level up."
Qin Ze asked, "What level will I be at if I cultivate to the maximum level?" "Can I reach out and grab a bullet or kick a nuclear warhead?"
The system replied, "Please face reality. The purpose of your cultivation is to provide energy for the system. Don't think too much."
It also explained the law of conservation of energy and biogenetics in detail.
Qin Ze could only give up on his dream of being a hero.
Qin Ze and Wang Zijin had just left the room when Qin Bao Bao, who had just finished communicating with her manager, walked out of the room. She looked around and asked, "Mom, where are my brother and Zijin?"
"They went out. I think they went to watch a movie." Qin Ma was mopping the floor when she remembered something. "Bao Bao, I helped you look at a few guys. They're quite handsome."
Qin Bao Bao's mood was inexplicably bad. She said impatiently, "Blind date, blind date. Can't you do something else besides blind dates?"
She turned around and went back to her room, slamming the door.
Qin Ma was at a loss. "This child."
Qin Bao Bao's room was on the south side. From the window, she could see the gate of the neighborhood. She stood by the window and looked out. She just happened to see Wang Zijin and Qin Ze walking side by side towards the gate of the neighborhood. The two of them seemed to be talking and laughing. Wang Zijin didn't stand on ceremony and threw her bag to Qin Ze.
Qin Bao Bao looked at this scene and was in a daze.
She was a little regretful. She regretted matchmaking Qin Ze and Wang Zijin. There was no reason. She just regretted it.
At first, she thought that Wang Zijin definitely wouldn't like Qin Ze, and Qin Ze had "repeatedly offended" her, so she came up with the idea of making her brother happy. She wanted him to shift his attention away from her. But when she saw her brother and Wang Zijin getting closer and closer, she couldn't stand it.
Qin Bao Bao attributed all this to "forgetting his mother after marrying a wife". She was that mother. As for whether Qin Ma had any opinions, she didn't care.
She looked at the two figures walking away and was in a daze.
