The aquarium is built in the outskirts of Pingzhou, a short drive from the city center.It has been snowing continuously for the past few days, the road has not been cleared in time, and Sang Ye is sleeping soundly in the child seat, so Sang Qingshi drives the car very slowly on purpose.

Tang Yuan seldom took a private car. He didn't know the driver's driving habits, so he didn't dare to talk too much. He put on headphones and listened to English words quietly.

Listening to it, I couldn't help but read it in a low voice.

Sang Qing saw him mumbling from the rearview mirror, and asked him, "What are you muttering to yourself?"

It took a few seconds for Tang Yuan to realize that Sang Qing was talking to himself, and hurriedly pulled off the earphones, "Ah? What did you say?"

Sang Qing was not in a hurry, just stopped at the red light and turned around, "What are you muttering about?"

Tang Yuan didn't realize that he had read aloud, so he turned off the playback on his phone embarrassingly, "I'm listening to English words."

Sang Qingshi passed the fourth grade in his freshman year, Tang Yuan was already a sophomore, and the school was no worse than him, so he naturally asked, "Is it the sixth grade?"

"Level four."

Sang Qingshi frowned, "Why haven't you taken the fourth grade yet?"

"I took the exam once, but I didn't pass."

"How did you get into 985?" Even if you had your high school money, you wouldn't fail the fourth grade.

"I, I'm pretty good in other subjects, and I've got close to full marks in comprehensive science..." The more Tang Yuan said, the more he felt guilty. His English score was indeed not very good, and he was almost at the bottom of the class.

When Sang Qing saw Tang Yuan's face flushed, he knew that he was speaking too seriously, so he calmed down and asked seriously, "Why is it that you can't learn English well?"

Tang Yuan hesitated for a while, and said honestly: "I grew up in a township welfare institution when I was young, and the educational resources... um... limited."

He doesn't want to say "not good", no matter how bad it is, let him read it out, right?One cannot forget one's roots. "When I came to Pingzhou later, I couldn't keep up."

"Didn't you go to make up lessons?"

Tang Yuan understood that people like Sang Qingshi who were born to stand on the top of the pyramid would not understand, so he just stuck out his tongue and pretended to be relaxed, "No money."

How difficult it is for him to make money now, it will only be more difficult for his sister to make money as a girl at that time.Although my brother-in-law helped to share the burden later, my sister accidentally got Xiao Yezi again. If he made up lessons all the way to the third year of high school, Xiao Yezi would have no milk powder to drink.

His grades are all made from one set of papers after part-time work.

Sang Qingshi didn't speak, his eyes shifted from the rearview mirror back to the car navigation, and he turned on the turn signal in advance.

After pondering for a long while, out of some mentality, I asked a somewhat false question: "Did your parents die of illness?"

Tang Yuan didn't feel offended, he was an orphan, and those who knew him well knew it, so there was nothing embarrassing about it.

Besides, it was Sang Qing who was asking him.

"Have you heard of pneumoconiosis?" Tang Yuan asked Sang Qing back, because in a metropolis like Pingzhou, many people had never heard of this disease.

Sang Qingshi clenched the steering wheel with both hands, "Well, I know."

Tang Yuan went on to say: "My dad is a miner, he went to the mine. People in our village said that he could suffer from this disease. In the end, people's lungs rotted and suffocated to death. I saw him unable to breathe when he was as big as Little Leaf. Breathing out and coughing up blood."

As he talked, he felt that the speed of the car seemed to be slowing down, so he looked out the window at Xue.

"My mother cooks for everyone in the mine. She is less ill than my father, but if my father fails, she will die too."

Sang Qingshi took a deep breath and found that his breath was shaking.

If Tang Yuan's parents were still there, they would be very proud of him.

Sang Qingshi glanced at the rearview mirror, just meeting Tang Yuan's eyes.

Tang Yuan didn't look very sad on his face, only his eyes were not as bright as usual.

"Mr. Sang, you should also smoke less in the future. Smoking is not good for your lungs."

"I don't need to smoke." Sang Qing blurted out, and then changed the subject, "Are you hungry?"

Tang Yuan rubbed his stomach and said embarrassedly: "A little bit."

In fact, he was already hungry, but Xiao Yezi was still asleep, and he didn't know where Sang Qingshi's car was going.

"It's almost here, let's go eat now." Sang Qingshi glanced at the time, "Let's listen to your English words."

"Oh." Tang Yuan put on the headphones again and clicked play.

A child is a kind of magical creature. When the car stops, it will wake up automatically without waiting for someone to call it.From sleepy eyes to clear ears and eyes in a flash, pointing to the bustling commercial street outside, he shouted excitedly: "It's delicious!"

So I couldn't sit still, and swayed anxiously in the child's seat.

Tang Yuan asked with a smile while unfastening his seat belt: "Did you smell it?"

Sang Qingshi got out of the car and went to the side of the road to pay the parking fee. When he came back, Tang Yuan was taking the mulberry leaf out of the car.He booked a restaurant, which is on the top floor of the shopping mall opposite, and parked here because he was afraid that there would be no parking spaces during peak hours.

Sang Ye looked behind her eagerly, while Tang Yuan looked embarrassed.Sang Qingshi looked in the direction and saw the iconic big signboard of McDonald's.

"Want to eat this?" Sang Qingshi bent down and asked Sang Ye.

Sang Ye nodded vigorously, "I think so."

But as Tangyuan said just now, you must listen to Qingshi's brother's "command" and not be willful.

When Sang Qing was allergic to the nuts of mulberry leaves, he only took him to trustworthy places to eat outside.Although he is usually busy with work, there are not many times in total.

"Can he eat this?" He turned his head to confirm with Tang Yuan.

Tang Yuan hurriedly replied: "Yes, as long as you don't order peanuts."

He thought that a rich man like Sang Qingshi, whose household ingredients were all organic and special, would not condescend to accompany them to eat junk food.

"You take him in first, and I'll make a call to cancel the restaurant reservation."

Sang Ye jumped and cheered, pulling Tang Yuan's short legs and running fast.

When Sang Qing came in, Tang Yuan and Sang Ye were standing at the counter one by one ordering food.Xiao Ye Zi was not much higher than the counter, and she raised her neck to try to identify the food in the picture, and Sang Qing picked him up with one hand.

The clerk saw the child grabbing the neck of the tall man in front of him, and asked enthusiastically, "What does this daddy need?"

Tang Yuan was confirming the ingredients of several foods with another clerk, and he couldn't help but lower his head when he heard this.

When Sang Ye put Tang Yuan and Sang Qing on one side, she corrected: "It's not my father, they are my uncle and brother."

The clerk understood it, and asked Sang Qing instead: "Does this uncle want to try our New Year's set menu? The categories are on this screen. Please take a look."

Sang Qing was silent, glanced at Tang Yuan who couldn't help laughing, and casually pointed to a set meal, "That's it."

The clerk placed the order skillfully on the screen, and then asked Tang Yuan and Sang Ye: "Where are the elder brother and the children?"

Tang Yuan didn't correct him, and calmly ordered meals for himself and Xiao Yezi, but couldn't help laughing in his heart.He is often treated as an elder brother when he takes Xiao Yezi out, and he has long been used to it.Even the elder sister and brother-in-law always make people uncertain about their relationship with Xiao Yezi because the child was born early. When Sangqing was born, a person of the same generation was regarded as either a father or an uncle.

"Take Xiao Ye Zi to wash your hands when you've laughed enough." Sang Qingshi put Sang Ye down from her arms.

Tang Yuan took his mobile phone and waited for the checkout, and said sincerely: "You invited me to the aquarium just now, and I will treat you to dinner."

Sang Qingshi patted Tang Yuan on the head, and urged: "Go and wash your hands."
