rival crush on me

On the first day of the new year, Guo Qiao and his uncle cousin went to the mountains to worship their ancestors. It was not convenient for Cao Jun to go, so he stayed at home, bored alone, so he walked around.

There are also four rooms upstairs in Guo Qiao’s house, one of which is used as a study room. There is no new furniture in it. There is a self-made bookcase of some years old. In the bookcase are Guo Qiao’s previous textbooks, from elementary school to high school All of them are very complete, except that there are only a few professional books in the university textbooks, which may be too far away from home, and most of them have been dealt with.There are also some books bought by Guo Qiao himself, such as "Entering Tsinghua University", "Entering Peking University", "Dragon and Ba Bu", "Swordsman", etc. Guo Qiao was also a passionate young man.

Cao Jun looked through it with great interest, and saw many honorary certificates, three-good students, and various competition award certificates, all of which were kept very well, which showed that his parents valued and were proud of their honor.Cao Jun also found Guo Qiao's diary. Judging by the childish handwriting and language, he should have learned to write it in elementary school. There were some words written in it like a running account, and there was a red pen for marking. It is estimated that the teacher asked him to write. of.Cao Jun looked at it and laughed.

Mother Guo came in and saw Cao Jun alone in the study: "Xiao Cao doesn't watch TV?"

Cao Jun raised his head: "Auntie, are you done? I'll read Guo Qiao's book. Auntie, Guo Qiao was a very good student before."

Mother Guo smiled and said, "That's right, my family Guo Qiao took the first place in the exam every time before, and his grades were very good." Her words were full of pride and pride.

Cao Jun saw a group photo on the bookshelf and took it down to see it was a junior high school graduation photo. Cao Jun glanced around and saw Guo Qiao sitting next to the teachers on the left side of the second row. Wearing a blue, white and yellow school uniform, looking at the camera with a serious face, his hair is cut short, childish, and Guo Qiao, who has not grown up, is a bit pretty, and his stature should not be tall, and he is still an immature child .

"Auntie, Guo Qiao was not tall when he was in junior high school?" Cao Jun asked.

Mother Guo poked her head over and took a look: "That's right, he didn't grow very tall at that time. He was only 1 meters in the third grade of junior high school. After entering high school, he grew up all of a sudden. In two years, he was about the same height as he is now. gone."

Jun Cao asked, "Are there any photos of him before?"

Mother Guo nodded: "Yes." She walked to the desk, opened the drawer, and found two photo albums, one large and one small: "They are all here, take a look."

"Okay, thank you, auntie." Cao Jun sat down at the desk, ready to look at the photos.

Guo's mother said, "Come and take a look in the living room. There is an air conditioner here, so it's not so cold."

Cao Jun nodded: "Okay."

These two photo albums are a little yellowed, and the corners are also severely worn, which should be the reason for frequent flipping.This photo album is a photo of Guo Qiao's whole family. The people who put the photos are very careful. Except for the first one, which is a group photo of the whole family, the rest are arranged in chronological order.The family portrait was taken when Guo Qiao was about five or six years old. Guo's father and mother were still young at that time, and Guo Juan was a girl in her teens.Guo Qiao was wearing a vest, shorts, and sandals, biting his lower lip, and looked at the camera a little shyly. His eyes were shining. The background was the coconut island, which should be taken in a photo studio.

Cao Jun flipped through the photos and found that there were very few group photos in the back, so he said, "Auntie, you didn't take many family portraits later?"

Guo's mother said, "That's right, I haven't filmed it since then."

"I brought my camera here, and when sister Guo Qiao comes back tomorrow, I'll take a group photo for you, then print it out, and ask Guo Qiao to bring it back."

"Okay." Mother Guo laughed.

Cao Jun looked at a black and white baby photo: "Auntie, this is Guo Qiao when he was a child?"

Guo's mother said: "Yes, it was taken in Hundred Days. Qiaoqiao was white and fat when he was a child, and he was very beautiful."

Cao Jun's gaze crossed the chubby baby with two small black eyes. He leaned forward and stared at the camera curiously, making people's hearts soften. Cao Jun felt a strange feeling in his heart. If Guo Qiao had such a child, it would hurt to hold him in my hand.

There seemed to be voices downstairs, and Guo's mother went downstairs, while Cao Jun quietly flipped through the photos and watched Guo Qiao's growth footprint.He grew from a cute baby to a lovely child, then into a shy and beautiful boy, and finally into a sunny and handsome young man. Cao Jun suddenly had an idea, he took all these to the study, and then I took my mobile phone and took pictures of Guo Qiao one by one, so that I can enjoy it slowly in the future when I have nothing to do.

Cao Jun was taking photos when he heard someone had already arrived upstairs, and the door of the study room slammed shut. He put his phone away and turned his head to see that it was Guo Qiao who came back: "Why did you come back?"

Guo Qiao opened the door and walked over: "I'm back after worshiping. What are you doing?"

Cao Jun said, "Look at your old photos."

Guo Qiao walked up to Cao Jun: "How did you find out?"

"Your mother found it for me. You are so stupid." Cao Jun pointed to a photo of Guo Qiao comparing scissorhands.

Guo Qiao quickly snatched it over: "Black history, don't read it."

Cao Jun said in a low voice: "It doesn't matter, no matter how stupid I am."

Guo Qiao couldn't help but spit: "Slick tongue, pay attention to me."

Cao Jun continued to take out his mobile phone to take pictures of those photos, Guo Qiao said, "Why did you take this?"

"Save it for later. Are there any guests at home?" Cao Jun asked.

"My cousin came to pay my parents New Year's greetings."

"Do you want to go to pay New Year's greetings?"

"Yes, my father is not in good health and can't go out. I may have to go to my uncle's house and my aunt's house." Guo Qiao said.

"What about me, too?"

Guo Qiao looked at him and hesitated: "Are you going too?" He felt that this was also a problem. When Cao Jun came to his house, it would not be good for him to take him to a relative's house to pay New Year's greetings. Go ask my mother."

Cao Jun nodded, lowered his head and continued to take pictures.

The next day, Guo Juan's family of four returned to her natal home. She has two children, a boy and a girl. The girl is 12 years old, and the boy is only five years old.Get married early, have children early, that's all.The two children are very courageous, cheerful, follow their mother, even when they meet Cao Jun, they don't admit their birth at all, they call him uncle graciously, and wish him New Year's greetings.Cao Jun was delighted by the call of his uncle, and each of them gave a red envelope of 1000 yuan.

Guo Juan took her son's red envelope, glanced at it, was shocked, and hurriedly took her daughter's as well, and it was the same, so she took them back to Cao Jun: "Cao Jun, don't be so polite. , we dare not ask for so many."

Cao Jun said: "Elder sister, I also come here once in a while, if you do, you're welcome."

Guo Qiao said: "Sister, my boss has money, so you can take it and buy books and pens for the nephews." Naturally, the uncle Guo Qiao also gave red envelopes, but only 500 yuan each, not as rich as Boss Cao .

Guo Juan said with a smile: "That's so embarrassing, I will accept the ones given to Hongbo, and don't give them to Bibo, she is already that old."

Guo Qiao said: "Take it all, Bibo is in junior high school, it's time for me to spend money, don't underestimate her too much, girls need to be rich, otherwise they will make their eyesight shallow, and it will be easy to run away with others in the future .”

Guo Juan said with a smile: "I'm not harsh on her, I'm not harsh on her, the family is doing their best, there is no shortage of food and clothing, and it is impossible to swell the face to pretend to be fat."

Guo Qiao took a red envelope from his sister and called his niece: "Bibo, this money was given to you by Uncle Cao Jun. Spend it wisely and don't use it indiscriminately."

"Understood, thank you Uncle, and Uncle Cao Jun." Yang Bibo smiled sweetly.

Guo Qiao looked at his niece: "Why do you call him uncle?"

Yang Bibo said: "He is my uncle's friend, and of course he is also my uncle."

Guo Qiao glanced at Cao Jun, and Cao Jun was also looking at him proudly, Guo Qiao smiled helplessly.

When the whole family gathered together, it seemed extraordinarily lively.Guo's father and Guo's mother are also in a very good mood. They probably like the excitement of children and grandchildren when they are older.Guo's father was instructing Guo's mother to cook boiled cabbage early in the morning. After killing a chicken, Guo Qiao bought Yunnan Xuanwei ham, plus pork bones and scallops, and started making clear soup early in the morning.When Guo Juan's family came back, they could already smell the rich aroma of the broth.

Guo Juan sniffed and said, "The smell of ham, is Dad cooking boiled cabbage?"

Mother Guo is peeling the leaves of Chinese cabbage: "You have a good nose, you can tell when you smell it." This is a Chinese cabbage that was planted relatively late, and the earlier batch has already begun to grow cauliflower, so it is not suitable for this dish , Only freshly wrapped cabbage is required. The outer leaves of the cabbage must be peeled off, leaving only the tenderest cabbage inside. In order for everyone to have a good time, I chopped down several Chinese cabbage and returned.

Guo Juan sucked her saliva: "It's really delicious. Mom, let me wash the vegetables for you."

Cao Jun took out his SLR camera and said to Guo Qiao, "I'll take a family portrait for you."

Guo Qiao said, "Let's shoot after dinner."

"The shooting is just right now, and the light is good," Cao Jun said.

Everyone was very happy when they heard that they were going to take a family portrait. Guo Qiao brought a chair for his parents to sit in the middle. He and his sister and his family stood behind. The whole family laughed happily. When Cao Jun pressed the shutter, he thought , add yourself, and you will be complete.

After taking the family portrait, I took a group photo of Guo Qiao's family of four, then took a group photo of Guo Juan's family of four, and took a group photo of Guo Qiao's parents alone.In the end, Cao Jun also asked Yang Zhijun to take a group photo of him and Guo Qiao. In this way, one big family and three small families, Cao Jun finally felt balanced.

After taking the photos, Guo's mother hurried to make lunch, while the young people chatted with the air conditioner in the living room upstairs.In the midst of the excitement, I heard Guo Juan's youngest son Yang Hongbo yelling: "Mom, a car is coming down here."

Guo Juan didn't care, and Guo Qiao didn't care either. They shouldn't be relatives of their family. On the second day of the new year, except for Guo Juan's family, there will be no other guests to visit the New Year. When my aunt wants to entertain her son-in-law, it usually takes two days later. Come to celebrate the new year.

After a while, Yang Bibo also came: "Mom, there are guests at grandma's house."

Guo Qiao was a little surprised: "Who is it?"

Yang Bibo said: "I don't know him, he drove a car."

Guo Qiao went to the balcony and looked down. He saw a black Toyota SUV parked downstairs. There were a few strangers standing in the yard. It would be wrong to say that they were all strangers. One of them was doing orthopedic surgery for his father. Dr. Zeng.Guo Qiao's heart skipped a beat, and he hurried into the room: "Let's go down and have a look."

When Cao Jun heard what he said, he also got up and followed out.

Guo Qiao went downstairs and saw his mother standing at the door with a slightly pale face, holding the apron nervously, and his father leaning on a cane, holding the door with one hand, and looking at the people outside: "Since you are here, come in." Sit down."

Guo Qiao hurried over and helped his father: "Dad." He didn't notice that the eyes of the few people in the yard were all on him as soon as he came out, and some people showed extremely surprised expressions on their faces.Cao Jun noticed it. He looked around at those people. Apart from the doctor, there was also a middle-aged woman whom he had met once in the hospital. He had never seen the other two, but the tall middle-aged man But the appearance is very familiar, it is clearly the middle-aged Guo Qiao.

Guo's mother looked at her son, bit her lower lip, stretched out her hand and grabbed his son's arm, and whispered, "Qiaoqiao, your biological parents have come to look for you."

Guo Qiao's heart was shocked, but his expression was still calm. He turned his head and glanced at the four people in the yard, and said, "Come in and sit down."

They didn't go upstairs either, so they sat down in the living room downstairs with chairs and benches.Guo's mother lost her mind to cook, so Guo Juan and her husband called their two children to the kitchen. After a while, Guo Juan also came over, leaving her husband to work in the kitchen.

Cao Jun moved a chair over, sat down for Father Guo, and then stood aside with Guo Qiao.The guests were all sitting and looking at Guo Qiao, Guo's mother said, "Yaoer, go and move a stool to sit on."

Cao Jun whispered to Guo Qiao, "I'll go." He went upstairs to move the stool down.

Doctor Zeng looked at Guo Qiao, then at Guo's father, and asked, "Brother's body looks much better, does your leg still hurt?"

Guo's father said: "It's still a little bit, but it's much better, thank you."

"Remember to go to the hospital for reexamination on time." Dr. Zeng said.

Father Guo nodded, and everyone remained silent for a while.

Cao Jun took the stool down and sat down with Guo Qiao beside Father Guo.Dr. Zeng said: "I'll cut to the chase. You should know the purpose of our visit today. Let me introduce you. This is my sister Zeng Jie, this is my brother-in-law Fang Zisheng, and this is my brother-in-law's sister. She went to the hospital last time, I don’t know if you still have any impressions. My sister and brother-in-law came here today mainly to see Guo Qiao.”

Fang Zisheng and Zeng Jie stood up and bowed to Guo's father and mother: "Thank you, brother and sister-in-law, for raising the children."

Father Guo sighed, turned to Guo Qiao and said, "Qiaoqiao, these are your biological parents."

The couple all turned their eyes to Guo Qiao, looking at him eagerly.Guo Qiao had noticed the couple a long time ago. They should be around 50 years old. They looked very young. They were well-dressed and well-maintained. It seemed that the living conditions were good. Guo Qiao nodded: "Hello."

Zeng Jie's tears rolled down, she raised her hand to wipe away the tears, and wanted to grab Guo Qiao's hand: "My child, I'm sorry."

Guo Qiao moved to avoid it: "My name is Guo Qiao."

Fang Zisheng heard Guo Qiao's tone was very calm and flat, not agitated at all, and his mood became more stable. He looked at Guo Qiao carefully, and this child really looked like him when he was young. No wonder Zeng Yi recognized him when he saw it. Out.

Guo Qiao said after a while, "Although it's meaningless to ask now, I still want to know why you threw me away?"

When Zeng Jie heard him ask this question, she covered her mouth with her hand, but still cried out. Fang Zisheng patted Zeng Jie on the shoulder and said, "This is all my fault. Your mother and I are college students. Classmates, I met and fell in love at school. Later, when I went abroad to study, I didn’t know that your mother was pregnant with you. At that time, she was in poor health and could not have an abortion. My studies were at a critical time and I didn’t want to come back halfway. She took sick leave. She secretly gave birth to you, she didn't finish her studies at the time, and she hated me and didn't want to raise you, so she abandoned you."

Guo's father said coldly: "You can be ruthless. In such a cold day, you threw away a newborn child. Didn't you intend to let him survive?"

Zeng Jie lowered her head and sobbed softly.

Guo Qiao bit so hard that his chewing muscles protruded, looked at the man and woman in front of him, and said coldly: "Since you have thrown me away, then don't come to me. Why do you still want to disturb my life?"

Cao Jun looked at Guo Qiao and couldn't help clenching his fists.

Dr. Zeng said from the side: "This incident is a coincidence. We have been looking for it for many years, but there is no whereabouts of my nephew. It happened that I met in the hospital that day. My nephew and brother-in-law look so similar, I recognized it immediately. .”

Zeng Jie sobbed: "I just want to see if the child is doing well, thank you for taking care of him for so many years."

Guo's mother said: "He is our son, of course we have to take care of him, not for you to take care of him."

Guo Qiao lowered his head: "If you are really good for me, you shouldn't disturb my life and my family's life."

Fang Zisheng said: "We have no intention of recognizing you, we just want to see you, and hope to be able to walk around in the future. If there is any need, our financial conditions are not bad, so we can help you."

"No need, we are not short of money or anything, thank you for your kindness." Guo Qiao said.
