"Zhao Zhao, do you want some cotton candy?"

Zhao Zhao was Qin Du's nickname, and he was sitting on the back seat of Qin Ge's bicycle at this time, holding his father's waist and looking around.

"want!"

"Okay, make me a big one, the white one." Qin Ge kicked his long legs to stabilize the car, gave the two yuan for the cotton candy, and felt Qin Du behind him moving dissatisfied go.

"But I don't like the white one, I like the blue one."

Qin Ge chuckled, and twisted Qin Du's face: "I don't care if you like it or not, as long as your mother likes it, take it, and go back and eat with your mother and daughter."

"Oh!" Qin Du replied angrily, "Then I don't want you to pick me up from now on, I want my grandma to pick me up."

"Why?" Qin Ge pedaled the bike, chatting with Qin Du one after another, the wind blew his shirt, making him fatter, but his face was still young and handsome after all. It doesn't look funny either.

"My mother can't ride a bicycle, don't tire her out."

Qin Du bit him hard on the back: "You are not my real father! You don't even buy me cotton candy!"

"Hey Qin Zhaozhao, do you have a conscience? Why didn't I buy it for you? What are you grabbing? And you've been in kindergarten and you still eat cotton candy. When I was your age..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Du quickly put his hands behind his back, and yelled crisply: "I don't have anything in my hand!"

I don't know who this rogue-like virtue resembles.Qin Ge turned his head helplessly, and went to buy another blue cotton candy: "Little brat, is this my dad?"

Qin Du was busy eating sweets with each hand, and didn't pay attention to him at all, he just cast his eyes to signal to go quickly, Qin Ge was so angry that he kicked wildly, Qin Du's face was covered with cotton candy blown by the wind.

The sun in the summer afternoon passed through the phoenix trees all over the street, and the fine light and shadow sprinkled on the father and daughter, and the wheels gently rolled over the time.

Entering the alley, he hugged Qin Du, who had been pouting and not speaking, and Qin Ge laughed viciously: "Hahahahaha Qin Zhaozhao, why don't you take a look in the mirror to see how you look like hahahahahahaha!"

Qin Du acted as if he hadn't heard it, and ran into his house with his schoolbag on his back, holding the two cotton candy bamboo sticks in his hand.

"grandmother!"

"Oh Zhaozhao is back!" The old lady of the Qin family was waiting at the door of the house after hearing her son's car bell. Her short hair was almost white, but she was still very energetic. Her granddaughter came back from kindergarten on the first day. Ask about the situation in the garden.But seeing the sticky cotton candy on Qin Du's face, the old lady Qin was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly took a towel to wipe it off: "Why are you back four? How did you make it drip like this?"

"Grandma, am I born to my father?"

Tears welled up in Qin Du's eyes while his face was being wiped, and his immature voice was full of tears, which made Qin Ge, who had just pushed the bicycle into the yard and parked it, stunned.Didn't realize that Qin Du has such acting skills before?After reacting, the legs that were just about to step into the threshold of the house were immediately retracted and ready to run.

There was something that the old lady of the Qin family didn't understand. She quickly threw the towel on Qin Ge's head with quick eyes and hands, and immediately said, "Qing Ge, you dare to run! I knew you would make a mistake when you went to pick up Zhaozhao, the boss is not small You are so rich, how rich do you look like a father, huh?"

And Qin Ge, who missed the opportunity to escape, picked up the towel that fell on the ground, and slapped his eyebrows obediently: "Hahaha, you are so young, look at the accuracy—"

The old lady Qin took a breath, hugged her granddaughter and kept coaxing her.

"Zhaozhao, don't cry, don't cry, it's your father's fault, grandma beat him quite a lot."

The old lady of the Ye family sitting across the door smiled while peeling garlic. The light blue floral shirt set off her refreshing appearance.He waved to his granddaughter Ye Zheng who had just walked into the alley: "Ah Zheng, come quickly, Mrs. Qin is beating her son again!"

Ye Zheng was carrying a small light yellow schoolbag, and walked slowly to the old lady Ye and sat down: "Grandma, you are watching the fun again."

"Hey, this is just to watch the excitement, look at it! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha——" Mrs. Ye covered her mouth and watched the broom flying from the opposite door hit Ye Zheng's head impartially, she was stunned Living.

"Oh my little darling, how about four?"

Ye Zheng covered his head and shook his head silently.

"I'm sorry, Ye Zheng, did I hit you?" Qin Du, who had wiped his face clean, was sitting on a small bench gloating, but when he heard Mrs. Ye's exclamation, he ran out with a pair of small slippers, his watery eyes staring at him. Ye Zheng's forehead.

Ye Zheng lowered his head and twisted his fingers: "It's okay."

Just now she had been watching the Qin family's father and daughter from a distance, Qin Ge was riding fast, and Ye Zheng ran behind, watching them buy cotton candy, watching them bicker and fight.Not to mention my legs are sore now, but my heart is still sore, I don't want to see Qin Du's face.

Parents are doing business abroad, and the Ye family only have their grandparents. Although they have everything, there are always some things that cannot be bought no matter how much money they spend.And what Ye Zheng wants are those things that cannot be bought with money, such as...a home like the Qin family.

Listening to the laughter and laughter on the other side every day, she often thinks that it would be great if she could be born in the Qin family.It would be great if I could switch with Qin Du. Isn't Uncle Qin often complimenting me on being more obedient than Qin Du? If...

"No, your forehead is red, my grandma is really strong." Qin Du stretched out his hand to touch Ye Zheng, but she subconsciously avoided it, so he had to turn his hand to touch the back of his head embarrassingly, but immediately thought of something , carelessly took Ye Zheng's hand.

"By the way, Ye Zheng, did you go to the kindergarten alone? In order to apologize to you, let my dad send you off tomorrow, too? I'll sit on the front seat, and you sit in the back seat, how about it?"

Ye Zheng, who was still thinking wildly with his head down just now, heard this, and immediately raised his head in disbelief: "Really?"

"Of course, I'm older than you. I'm your little sister, so I have to take care of you." Qin Du chuckled, and Qin Ge, who was leaning on the doorframe after a temporary truce with his mother, felt warm.

Well, although it is indeed a bit naughty, my Zhaozhao has a really kind heart.

"Yeah, little leaf, I wanted to talk this morning, and I will take you with me in the future. When you two grow up and finish elementary school, you can come back by yourself, right, Mrs. Ye?"

Qin Ge's words reached the heart of Mrs. Ye. Her legs and feet are not very good, and it is really difficult to pick up Ye Zheng.Fortunately, the kindergarten is not far away, and there are neighbors nearby, so there is no need to worry about safety issues, but in the end, I still feel that I have wronged my granddaughter, and it would be great to have Qin Ge along with me.

"Oh, I'll trouble your family, Mrs. Qin is blessed, such a good son..."

"Where is it."

A frolic was interrupted by such an interruption, and there had never been any real disturbances in this small alley in the south of the city.The most beautiful place in the south of the Yangtze River, Jinling Diwangzhou, most of the people here are honest and tolerant.Besides, everyone is already used to the movement of the Qin family. Qin Zhaozhao, who smiles at everyone, loves to quarrel with his own father, like a debt collector.While Qin Ge and Mrs. Ye were exchanging greetings, Qin Du, who couldn't stay idle, had already sneaked away with Ye Zheng.The other end of this alley is the Qinhuai River. The painted boats and lanterns by the river are the two girls' favorite.

"Zhao Zhao, don't go to the river, it's dangerous." Ye Zheng looked at Qin Du who was jumping up and down, and worriedly grabbed her sleeve.

Qin Du didn't seem to care, "It's okay, I will pay attention." She carefully supported the stone slab on the bank, walked down the steps step by step, squatted down and touched the cool river water curiously, suddenly thought of something, secretly Laughed a bit.

"Ye Zheng, do you want to come to play too?"

Ye Zheng stood there and hesitated for a while, but finally nodded and walked slowly to her side. Just as he was about to squat down, he was suddenly splashed all over the face by Qin Du, who was playing tricks.

"Hahahaha silly Ye Zheng, reacting so slowly—"

Qin Du succeeded in playing a prank and laughed excitedly, but Ye Zheng didn't respond.Her hair and blouse were all wet, sticking to her body awkwardly. Although it was already summer, she looked very pitiful.

No matter how stubborn Qin Du was, he was a little uneasy by Ye Zheng's silent appearance of being bullied.To her, Ye Zheng was the "child from someone else's family" as her parents said, well-behaved and quiet, never causing trouble.The two girls who are so similar in age are always compared by the neighbors and make some small jokes.But she never hated Ye Zheng because of it, and she didn't intend to embarrass Ye Zheng, but she didn't like her always being so dull, and wanted to make her laugh and make trouble.But obviously, a joke that makes the person unhappy is not a joke.

"Uh...I'm sorry, I thought you could avoid it." Qin Du frantically wiped Ye Zheng's water with his sleeve, not daring to look directly into her eyes.

When he got home that night, Qin Du was severely beaten by Qin Ge.

"Qin Du! It's fine if you usually make the family restless, who told you to bully others outside?" Qin Ge became angry and changed his easy-going appearance before. Not only did he speak harshly, but he also struck Qin Du with great force. Crying and crying, Mrs. Qin couldn't persuade her.Although Qin Ge dotes on his daughter, he and his daughter usually look like they are neither big nor small at home. It doesn't matter how much Ren Qindu makes trouble with him, but when he leaves this family and bullies others, this is absolutely unacceptable.

On the opposite side, Ye Zheng took a shower and changed his clothes. He wanted to go out when he heard Qin Du's cry, but was held back by his grandmother.

"You don't want to go."

"She didn't really bully me, she was just joking, I..."

Although he and Qin Du had known each other since childhood, Ye Zheng was of course unhappy to be teased like this.Even if the river water wasn't dirty, it would be very uncomfortable to be splashed on him like this, and Ye Zheng loved being clean.

But she just got the promise to take her to school, so she couldn't help but think that if Qin Du was beaten hard and blamed herself, what would happen if Qin Ge didn't let Qin Ge take her with her tomorrow?After all, they are father and daughter, father and daughter who are inseparable no matter how noisy they are, and she is just an outsider... After all, she is still young, and adults will worry about gains and losses when they want something for a long time, let alone her.

Mrs. Ye knew what she was thinking when she saw her start to twist her fingers again, and she had long since lost interest in watching the excitement, staring fixedly at her legs, her eyes slumped.

"Ah Zheng, it's all grandma's fault, you've been wronged."

Ye Zheng shook his head, and wanted to say something, when he heard Qin Du yell loudly: "You hit me, you kill me! I don't want to go home either!" The loud voice startled the sparrows on the telegraph poles. He flew away, and Qin Du ran away after screaming, without turning his head back.Qin Ge was so angry that he threw the clothes hanger in his hand: "Run! Don't come back if you have the ability! This little bastard——" Before he could finish speaking, he was slapped on the back by the old lady Qin behind him, just before him Where Qin Du bit, the defenseless Qin Ge gasped in pain.

"You want to rebel, you, huh? Drive my granddaughter away, you are going to die, you! I am really going to piss you off, and I yell at Qin Du and Qin Du one by one, ruthless, scary! I told you You Qin Ge, it's too normal for children to fight and fight at home, how can you teach children like you..."

The old lady Qin wanted to say something, but Qin Ge, who was still angry, pushed her into the house, and closed the door with her backhand, as if she was about to be kicked out of the house by Qin Du.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled into the alley, the bluestone bricks reflected a faint light, and there were fine dust floating in the air.Ye Zheng stared blankly at the gate of Qin's house, forgot what he was about to say just now, and tugged at the corner of Mrs. Ye's clothes at a loss.

"What should we do now?"
