Goddess routine

The noise of the streets gradually came to an end due to the peak hours of going to work and school, only sporadic vehicles passing by from time to time, bringing up a cloud of dust.

Su Ziqing stared at the street trees outside for a long time, and then slowly sighed under the pressure of the person on the other side who "confessed leniently and refused strictly", "Ling Yu, you know my father's character, right?"

"Of course I know." Ji Lingyu nodded clearly.

She and Su Ziqing grew up in the same big courtyard and played best. Of course, the relationship between the two families has become closer. She often went to Su Ziqing's house to play house or something, but was often held back by Su Ziqing's father. A lot of toffee, beef jerky and other snacks and pocket money were given to her, because of this, she was as fat as a piglet at that time, and her mother had to give her a fasting order for this.

"Uncle Su is a very nice person. Every time he goes there, he gives me a lot of food. He always studies with a book. He looks gentle and elegant, unlike my father. When he reaches middle age, he gets fat and has a small belly. Pretty old."

She curled her lips in disgust as she spoke, "He didn't listen to me telling him to lose weight, and he didn't even do it for a 5-minute walk to buy a cigarette. By the way, the older you get, the lazier you become."

Su Ziqing listened to her complaining there dumbfounded. After listening for a while, Miss Ji, who felt that she had strayed off topic, suddenly realized something was wrong. She shut up, looked at Su Ziqing, and blinked her eyes twice, "That's not right, Ziqing, we Aren't you going to talk about your abnormal behavior today, why did it involve my dad?"

I have to ask you, miss.

With a sigh in his heart, Su Ziqing said with a smile on his face, "Although you got off topic while talking, you are still right in one sentence: my dad is a good man."

"Isn't that good?" Ji Lingyu said he couldn't understand, "My dad is just like Lei Gong, with a straight face all day long, as if someone owed him millions, and people are afraid when they see him."

"But he's so kind." Su Ziqing shook his head, picked up a silver spoon to stir the coffee in the white porcelain cup with a wry smile, took a sip, and the bitter taste filled his mouth, bitter and astringent, very similar to her at the moment Mood.

"You don't know, my dad was born in a particularly barren mountain. When I was a child, I heard him say that my grandparents passed away when he was seven or eight years old, and he was still relying on me, an aunt who married far away. Wan Ku raised him for his education, so he was very grateful and always wanted to repay my aunt, but after he started working, my aunt died of stomach cancer."

"Then Uncle Su must be very sad." Ji Lingyu sighed.

"Yeah." Su Ziqing nodded, and said slowly, "My aunt is 13 years older than my dad, and the eldest sister is like a mother. He was really sad at that time, but the deceased is gone, and the sadness will fade over time. But my dad always feels that he has not been able to repay my aunt's kindness, and he has been guilty in his heart. He wants to give some money to my cousins, and they all get married and start businesses without his help, so he feels more and more guilty."

Taking another sip of coffee, Su Ziqing recalled, "Maybe the guilt piled up bigger and bigger, and finally he couldn't hold it in his heart. When I was in the third grade, I came back from school and heard my mother and my father were talking to each other. Quarreling. My dad has a gentle personality and has never quarreled with my mom once. That was the first time I saw him quarreling with my mom so angrily. I was so frightened that I stood by the door at a loss, When my mother was so angry that she packed her clothes from the house and skipped me and rushed out the door, I remembered to go up, grabbed my dad’s clothes and asked him what’s wrong. He picked me up and said to me, it’s nothing, just The piano you promised to buy for me couldn’t be bought, and asked me if I was hurt.”

"I didn't know what he meant at that time. Besides, I didn't really like piano, but my mother asked me to learn it, so I learned it. Hearing him say that, of course he shook his head and said he was not sad. He was very happy at the time. Pick me up, our father and daughter went to a dumpling shop outside for the first time."

As he spoke, Su Ziqing's eyes turned red, and Ji Lingyu was so frightened that he quickly gave her a tissue, "Stop talking, Ziqing, I won't ask, let's go back quickly."

Su Ziqing shook her head, took the tissue, covered her eyes, and continued, "I was very happy at that time, because my mother was very strict and never allowed me to eat more food from outside. No matter how busy she was, she would cook for me. It is said that eating at home is good for development. After I was taken out for dinner by my dad for the first time, I naively asked him what to do if my mom found out and punished me. He would touch my butt Head, slowly asked me, if he and my mother divorced, who would I choose."

Ji Lingyu was speechless.She always thought that this question was a choice Su Ziqing would make when she grew up, but she never thought that Uncle Su would ask her this question when she was so young.

"It's cruel, this question." Seeing her surprised look, Su Ziqing smiled faintly, "At that time, I didn't have the concept of divorce in my mind. I only knew that my parents would be together, but I didn't know why they had to separate. , It wasn’t until my mother took me to the city to study, that I heard her cry when she came back drunk from a party, saying that my father had gone crazy and donated most of the family’s savings to poor areas. "

"No, because of this, auntie is going to divorce uncle?" Ji Lingyu's eyes widened, "Auntie can't be so stingy, can she?"

Su Ziqing shook her head, "Of course I wouldn't divorce my dad just for the money, but you don't know, my mom was pregnant at the time - the family planning is very strict, my parents are both public officials, and they will be fined if caught A lot of money, my father lost his parents since he was a child, and he only had one older sister, and he had no relatives in the family, so he was very lonely. Because she doesn't want me to be lonely in the future, and because she loves my dad and wants to give birth to a boy for him..."

"I didn't expect Auntie to be so ignorant!" Hearing this, Ji Lingyu was indignant, "What does it mean that boys can carry on the family, and we girls are not raised by ourselves?"

"Okay, okay, don't get excited." Seeing that she stood up angrily, causing everyone in the coffee shop to look over, Su Ziqing hurriedly pulled her to sit down, "Don't worry, listen to me slowly, otherwise, I won't say any more."

Ji Lingyu sat down reluctantly and listened to Su Ziqing continue, "Because of this incident, my mother saved money ahead of time. She originally planned to pay the fine, but that year was flooded and snowstormed. Many people died in the area. My dad got the news from nowhere, saying that a group of students’ schools and homes were collapsed by the snow, and they had no place to sleep or study. Look at my mother, move those deposits out and donate them.”

"No way, if there is no money, what will happen to the child in the aunt's belly—uh..."

The words that blurted out were swallowed by her again, Ji Lingyu quickly covered her mouth: pig's head!Ziqing is already this old, and I haven't heard that she has a younger brother or younger sister. Isn't it obvious that the child was not born. . .

Su Ziqing smiled wryly, "My mom didn't tell my dad about her pregnancy. Of course, my dad didn't know what the savings were for. In fact, until today, my mom didn't tell him why she turned against him in the first place." He has always stubbornly thought that it was because my mother was too greedy for money, too stingy, and did not match his values, and my mother did not explain it. Although she does prefer power and wealth in her hands now, I believe that at that time , she doesn't have that in mind."

"This is really..." After listening to the story, Ji Lingyu couldn't find words to describe her current mood, "So the reason why you helped those two people is related to Uncle Su?"

"Yeah." Su Ziqing nodded lightly, "My dad often told me stories about his childhood. After I came back from the city, he took me to live in the poorest mountainous area in our province for a month to experience life there. Seeing them, I will think of my father's words, and the life conditions of those children who are about my age I have seen in the mountains."

Especially that classmate Mo, whose temperament is similar to her father's, with a bit of Confucianism and a bit of a dull look.

When she saw the shoes under her feet were cracked, she remembered that her father told her when she was a few years old that when they were young, because they were poor, they used to run barefoot in the snow when they went to school. I felt something in my heart, so I went to great lengths to buy things for her, which can be regarded as fulfilling her father's wish.

"I can't complain that my uncle's job title was higher than my dad's in those years, but he often ate pickles and rice porridge to get by." Ji Lingyu sighed, she was often asked by her mother to call Su Ziqing's father to her house for dinner, and she wondered about this problem. . "It turns out that he donated all the money, Uncle Su, he is really... well, a great benevolent person."

"Now you know." Su Ziqing smiled wryly. "My father taught me to help the poor. I don't expect anything in return, just for my own peace of mind."

"Then you don't have to drag us to sell military training uniforms at seven or eight o'clock in the evening." Ji Lingyu pursed his lips and muttered, "It's so late, let's go to the place where there are all men, if it weren't for Zhou Xuan's is pretty reliable, but we are in a terrible situation now."

"I just want to try to see if I can live on my own, and the results of this experiment tell me that I can still get what I want without relying on anyone." After speaking, Su Ziqing took out the He handed her 200 yuan, and comforted her with a gentle smile, "Here, don't be angry, this is your reward."

"Hey, where did you get the money?" Ji Lingyu asked strangely.

"It's for sale." Su Ziqing waved the banknotes in front of her eyes, and said solemnly, "Do you think I will take a risk with just a few clothes? I secretly collected all the military training uniforms in the savings room of our school. The three-inch tongue persuaded those workers to sell it for 50 yuan a piece."

"Oh my god, profiteers!" Ji Lingyu immediately yelled incredulously, "Zhou Xuan and I only sold 21 pieces, how did you do it? Could it be that you betrayed your beauty?"

"Go, go, talk is not flattering." Smiling, he took money and patted her, but Su Ziqing did not refute, "I just told them it would cost 70 yuan. For their sake, it is not easy for them to charge them forty yuan. They really offered fifty."

"A profiteer, a profiteer." Ji Lingyu sighed, took the money and stuffed it into his pocket, and smiled happily. Anyway, she also worked hard, so it was not for nothing.

Suddenly, as if remembering something, he raised his head and asked her, "So, the money you gave to that surnamed An was also used here?"

"Of course." Taking a sip of coffee calmly, Su Ziqing said with a sly smile, "Do you think I'd be so stupid as to pay the principal myself?"
