Picking mulberries

"Fuck you, brat, you belong to koalas, right?" Cui Dongxu pushed away the behemoth beside him.

"Teacher, your reaction is too intense." Tan Shenglong smiled when he saw Cui Dongxu's face was flushed.

"Calm and calm, how decent is a hug." Cui Dongxu flicked his clothes, fearing that his students would see his guilty conscience, so he hurriedly said with a serious expression.

"I'm going to Oufeidi to eat grilled steak." Qiu Yang said loudly.Ofidi is a western restaurant in the city, where the consumption is relatively expensive, and it is difficult for ordinary working-class people to consume.

"'Yue Sang NO.17' is not due to me alone. If you want to eat, go to Boss Gong and see if you are listed as one of the contributors." Cui Dongxu said with white eyes.

"I'm going to eat too." Zhao Yujin and Tan Shenglong booed after Qiu Yang as if he had made an agreement.

"Hey, you guys, the realm is really low. Are you affirming the results of your research just for a delicious meal?"

"We want you to invite the teacher, it's so uncomfortable to eat with Gong Gong, and you won't choke to death." Zhao Yujin laughed.

"Seeing that the teacher is easy to talk, you can kill me like an elephant." Cui Dongxu was also happy when the result became useful. "The blackmail is all on the teacher's head. Be careful that you won't graduate."

"Don't worry, if the teacher makes things difficult for you, I'll help you find out the evaluation form and change your scores." Qiu Yang smiled at Zhao Yujin.

"Yo ho, you are going to rebel, you want to fight for power with me, right?" Cui Dongxu said, took out the book on the table and slapped Qiu Yang on the back hard, making Qiu Yang howl.

The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, and there are three days off through the adjustment.

Zhao Yujin and Tan Shenglong both have girlfriends, and their home is not far away. Cui Dongxu didn't even think about them, but asked Qiu Yang about his vacation arrangements alone.Qiu Yang originally wanted to go home and discuss something with his father, but felt that the time was not yet ripe, so he put it aside for now, so he told Cui Dongxu pitifully that he had nowhere to go, so he could only go to the library and sleep late.

"Didn't Xiao Qi's family ask you to go?" Cui Dongxu knew that Qi Zhuoran's parents liked Qiu Yang very much, and often let him go there to eat and drink.

"Their family has gone on a trip. I'm afraid they are all on the train now." Qiu Yang looked envious.

"Just for these three days, why go out and travel poorly? If you want to travel, I will sponsor you to go out during the summer vacation." Cui Dongxu thought for a while, and suddenly said to Qiu Yang, "Can you wrap zongzi?"

"What do you mean by being able to be smart? My son has been taught by the tiger mother since he was a child. He is proficient in everything about housework. My parents are lazy and didn't give me a sister. My tiger mother took me Treat me like a son and a daughter, and you have to take care of me for everything, lest I be lazy for a while."

"Hey, what kind of virtue, if you say you're fat, you'd be out of breath," Cui Dongxu chuckled, "Then go to my house and wrap zongzi with Mama Su. I remember when I was young, my dad liked to eat zongzi made by himself."

"Your dad didn't like to eat it after he got rich, right?" Qiu Yang was very surprised that Cui Dongxu specifically mentioned what he liked to eat when he was a child.

"Even the most original taste will change after being developed? Why don't you like it, but my mother never wrapped zongzi at home."

"Your mother doesn't know, doesn't Grandma Su do? You can make whatever you want, and your house doesn't lack anything." Although Qiu Yang has been to Cui Dongxu's house several times, he has never met his father, Cui Shicheng, and knows that he is a big boss. , I have always imagined him as a rich man with a bright forehead and a big belly in my mind.

"Why ask so many nonsense, you just say whether to go or not?" Cui Dongxu said impatiently.

"Go! Of course." Qiu Yang vaguely felt that the relationship between Cui Dongxu's parents might not be so harmonious.

Seeing that Cui Dongxu brought his student Qiu Yang over, Su's mother was very happy. After several contacts, she had a good impression of this young man with an easy-going and kind personality. She always talked about Qiu Yang's goodness in front of Cui Dongxu. The whole home has more life.

"Oh, Xiaoqiu, you really know how to make zongzi. It's amazing. Even the women in the countryside can make zongzi. They all like to buy ready-made ones from the supermarket." When I heard that Qiu Yang was here on vacation this time Mama Su was very happy to make zongzi.

"Didn't dad like to eat it? Let him try something new." Cui Dongxu said to Su's mother.

"Master, you still remember, yes, yes, yes, Mr. Cui has always liked to eat." Mama Su wiped her eyes and said.After the relationship between Shen Xiuping and Cui Shicheng was at odds, Shen Xiuping never made zongzi at home. Although Shen Xiuping had passed away for many years, Su's mother was used to it and never made zongzi at home. Now when Cui Dongxu asked to make zongzi at home, she couldn't help but Feeling sad, I thought of my benefactor, Shen Xiuping, who had gone earlier than this old woman.

"Grandma Su, there should be some materials at home, right?" Qiu Yang saw the scene was a bit weird, so he interrupted on purpose.

"Oh, no, it's also convenient to go to the market to buy. Zongye and paint grass are easy to buy. There is a vegetable market in the neighborhood in front of you. It's just that you have to work hard to find glutinous rice. I'll contact Aunt Liu in front. Let's see where I can get it." Aunt Liu is the nanny of Director Xiao of the Finance Department in the same villa area as Cui Dongxu.

"Isn't glutinous rice available in supermarkets?" Qiu Yang reminded.

"It's in the supermarket, don't worry." Seeing Qiu Yang puzzled, Su's mother explained, "Most of the rice and vegetables we eat at home are from special places, and there are few pesticides and no additives or pigments. Anyway, it's the holidays. It’s the day after tomorrow, so you can help with the ingredients in these two days.”

"Would it take a few days to make a zongzi? I thought it would be done today." Cui Dongxu said.

"Isn't it a three-day holiday?" Su's mother asked Qiu Yang, "You don't have any plans for these three days, do you?"

"No, isn't this the teacher who caught me to do chores for you, Grandma Su? I just obey you." Qiu Yang said with a smile.

"That's good, that's good," Su's mother couldn't resist Qiu Yang's cute smiling face, "Just stay at home for a few days, I'll make you whatever you want to eat, the guest rooms upstairs have been empty for a long time gone."

"Let him live here?" In the past, they would go back to school after having a meal and playing. Cui Dongxu didn't expect Su's mother to arrange it properly.

"It's the holidays, isn't it more lively when there are many people in the family? Your uncle's family has gone on a trip, and your aunts haven't said they want to come over, and Xiaoqiu doesn't have any arrangements. How nice it is."

"Okay, okay, you always say it." Cui Dongxu said with some joy in his heart.

In order to make glutinous rice for zongzi, Qiu Yang followed Su Ma to several places, and finally took Cui Dongxu as a driver, and bought fifty catties after a lot of effort.Qiu Yang couldn't help but sigh in his heart that rich people can stand all kinds of hardships. For a bag of glutinous rice flowers, the cost is so great that they can afford to buy a pig at home.

She said she could make zongzi, but in fact Qiu Yang only knew the general idea. Fortunately, Su Ma was proficient at soaking rice ingredients, cooking zongzi leaves, soaking lacquer grass, and everything. Qiu Yang was helping with some coolies, and Cui Dongxu I went busy in the study on my own.

"Grandma Su," chatted with Qiu Yang who was beside Su's mother, "It's such a big house, it's not too empty to live in usually."

"Empty is empty, it's okay if you get used to it." Su Ma said with a smile.

"Cleaning is so tiring." Qiu Yang said thoughtfully.

"I don't have to worry about hygiene. Mr. Cui hired cleaners. They come to clean up twice a week. The people they hire are family members of his factory workers. They work very hard, which is pretty good."

"Is the teacher's father very busy? I've been here several times, but I haven't seen him at home."

"Oh, although it looks like the father and son live in a villa and drive a good car, it's hard work," Su Ma said gossipingly, "Doesn't your teacher like teaching and not doing business? Mr. Cui has no choice but to Keep going. Sigh, your teacher, everything is good, but when you have a stubborn temper, you are very stubborn, and you have no intention of taking over the family mantle. Mr. Cui himself has given up his mind. He is more than 60 people. I have to socialize outside every day, and I can't see him once this week. I don't know who will take care of me if I drink too much at night. There is no hostess at home, and some housework is really impossible to take care of."

"Teacher is not too young now, is he?"

"Well, it's not young... Let me see, ouch, I'm already in my thirties before I know it, my God, I'm already 34, I'm so confused, I still treat him like a child, I always think he Still young." Su Ma said sadly.

"Has he not found a girlfriend yet? If there is a master in the family, it will be much easier for you as an old man, so you don't have to worry about the old and the young." Qiu Yang said sympathetically.

"Who says it's not?" Qiu Yang suddenly said to Su's mother's heart, "It's useless to urge her, and I'm so anxious. Let's just say, I have achieved success in my career and became a professor. As for my family background, Needless to say, logically speaking, with such a good condition, he would have already become a father."

"Yeah, isn't the teacher a professor? I always thought he had a family long ago. I thought his children would be going to middle school soon, but I didn't expect to be single now." Qiu Yang said hypocritically, "Is it because he is looking for a teacher? There are too many girls, he can't pick and choose?"

"Where," Su's mother shook her head and sighed, "If that's the case, his father would have helped make the decision. The problem is that your teacher is very self-sufficient and never talks about love affairs. It's just the opposite of his father... How much is his uncle and aunt? Who hasn't introduced him to his aunt or uncle? , he’s already running for four, alas, alas, if I go there, how will I face my mother.”

"Isn't his father forcing him?" Qiu Yang pretended to be very casual, "If my parents haven't found a partner at this age, they must beat me to the point of paralysis."

"You're talking about Mr. Cui," Mama Su sighed again, "it's for sure that he's worried, but it's not easy to force your teacher, after all... After all, your teacher is not an ignorant boy, so it's good to be so old Talk to him. Besides, your teacher is the sweet spot in Mr. Cui’s heart. I guess, as long as your teacher likes to live, Mr. Cui will follow him. This is because your teacher is striving for success and has his own career. If you are so incompetent with other rich kids, with Mr. Cui's indulgence, even if he squandered all his family fortune and ruined his factory, he wouldn't say anything bad to your teacher."

"Really, Mr. Cui is such a delicate teacher." Qiu Yang laughed.

"That's right," Su Ma nodded and sighed again, "There is nothing perfect in this world. Mr. Cui is pretty good at everything, but there are two things that are not perfect. One is that the son has not yet married, and the other It's just that my son can't take over his career. But then again, no matter how big the business is, there are risks. It's not as safe as your teacher is teaching now. Let's live a life, don't you want to be safe and happy? That's right, Xiao Qiu."

"Grandma Su is right. My goal in life is to be safe and happy with my family. The state affairs are managed by those who have great talents to help the world. Those of us who have no big ambitions, I just want to have a happy life." Qiu Yang scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

"Isn't the country also made up of our small families? The country is not peaceful if the small families are stable."

"Wow, Grandma Su is so thoughtful." Qiu Yang quickly flattered her.

"What are you talking about, the old and the young? You are so happy." Cui Dongxu went upstairs and downstairs to breathe, seeing the old and the young chatting happily, very authentically.

"Grandma Su was telling me about your love history, teacher. Wow, teacher, you are so charming. I heard that there are beauties who are so sad that they shaved their hair and became a nun. I admire you." Qiu Yang said seriously.

"Mama Su, you can't discredit me in front of my disciples, tell me how to mess around in the education field in the future." Cui Dongxu knows what kind of virtue Qiu Yang has in front of him now, and he knows that this kid is full of mouth. Run the train.

"You kid, you've screwed me over." Su's mother smiled and cursed and pushed Qiu Yang.

"I want to call my dad, I have to go home and have a look at the Dragon Boat Festival specially prepared for him." Cui Dongxu said to Su's mother.

"No, Mr. Cui came back the day before yesterday and told me that he would go home for the Dragon Boat Festival, and asked me to talk to you."

"Is Teacher Cui's father going home today?" Qiu Yang asked nervously.

"It's not going to happen today, it's not bad to be able to go home tomorrow." Su's mother said.

With the addition of Qiu Yang, both Cui Dongxu and Su's mother felt that the whole family was much more lively. At night, they no longer turned off the lights early and went back to each house, but sat in the living room watching TV and chatting, which was much more lively.Su's mother was afraid that the young people would not be able to bear the hunger at night, so she specially made supper for supper.

After lunch the next day, Qiu Yang was busy with Cui Dongxu in the flower garden in the courtyard. A super luxurious car with a sign that Qiu Yang couldn't understand drove in. A middle-aged driver got out of the car and opened the door. A man in his sixties with a serious expression came down from the back. After the driver closed the door, he hurried to the back of the car and took out several large and small boxes.As soon as Qiu Yang looked at the man in his sixties, he immediately realized that he should be Qiu Yang's father.

Sure enough, Cui Dongxu called Qiu Yang up to meet him: "Dad, I'm back so early. This is my student. I haven't been home for the holidays. Let him come and play." Then he motioned to Qiu Yang to say hello.

Qiu Yang was nervous at first, but after seeing the smiling face of the old man, he let go instantly: "Hello, Uncle Cui, I am Professor Cui's student, Qiu Yang."
