Chapter 3 The Truth About Grandpa's Death

"Jiang Yansan! You...you dare to lie to me! Let's see how I deal with you!" As he said that, a pair of soft little hands had already grabbed my ears.

I couldn't help but feel the pain and started screaming.

The driver in front of him smiled and said, "Young man, you can't stand it anymore. When you reach my age, you will know why people always say that marriage is the grave of love!"

I grinned, "I have realized now that when a man meets a woman, there will be only anniversaries and no independence day from now on."

The driver burst into laughter after hearing this, and Qiaoer was even more angry and put all the strength in her hands...

More than ten minutes later, the car stopped, Fujing Garden arrived, and my home arrived.

After getting off the bus, I saw my mother standing at the entrance of the community waiting for us from a distance.

Seeing us get off the car, my mother hurried over and took the luggage in my hand. Qiaoer, who had just looked at me with a straight face, suddenly smiled on her face when she saw my mother, and her aunt kept calling out.

I looked at Qiao'er with "contempt" eyes. Why is this woman like this? She changes her face faster than reading a book.

My mother saw that I had brought back a girl like a flower, her mouth was so sweet that she could not stop smiling. She hurriedly pulled Qiao'er and walked home, and it seemed that I had become an optional object.

Finally, it was my dad who opened the door. My dad was still the same as before, holding a book called "Modern View of Socialism in China". Since I had a memory, I have never seen my dad put down this book one day and pressed it under the pillow when he went to bed. I really don't understand what he was reading, such boring and boring things, so interesting that I really can't figure it out!

After putting down my luggage, my mother was busy cooking. Qiaoer wanted to help, but she was pushed out by her mother, saying that the kitchen was so fume-filled. I hope my mother could let her do something and take the opportunity to let her, the eldest princess, feel the taste of labor.

My father picked up the fruit knife and carefully peeled the apple for Qiaoer.

Qiao'er sat on the sofa and looked at the pretty prettier layout and spacious environment of my house, and she felt a sense of surprise in her eyes.

This surprise eventually turned into restraint, so that when my father handed her an apple, she felt embarrassed to pick it up and began to feel a little cowardly.

Seeing that my aunt who used to show off her might in front of me is so embarrassing now, I became secretly proud.

She quickly discovered such an inconspicuous action. After swallowing a mouthful of apple, she ticked me fiercely, as if saying, "Boy, your skin is itchy again!"

I didn't dare to look at her, so I hurriedly got up and said to her stammeringly, "My mother said... I have already cleaned up the house for you, I'll take you to see it!"

She looked at me, then smiled at my dad, and got up and followed her.

"How is it, are you still satisfied?" After entering the room, I deliberately put on the expression of a grandmaster and said.

"Satisfied?!" Unexpectedly, she closed the door as soon as she entered the door and grabbed my ear hard again, "Jiang Yansan, why did you tell me at school? Didn't you say that your family lives in a prefabricated house? You said that your father is a tricycle and your mother sells vegetables in the vegetable market! Okay, Jiang Yansan, it turns out that you lied to me, you have been lied to me for the past three years!"

I screamed in pain, "I don't...no..."

"I understand. You don't believe me. You are insulting my personality. Are you afraid that I and you are interested in your wealthy family? I, Lin Qiaoer, is the kind of person who is jealous of money? You told me that your parents are laid-off workers. When did I despise you? No wonder you are so generous in your actions. I should have thought of you lying to me!" As she said that, she slowly let go of her hand, stood there motionless, her nose twitched, and her eyes gradually became wet.

When I saw that something was wrong, I quickly replied, "I didn't mean it, I just wanted to give you a surprise! I really didn't want to lie to you..."

Qiaoer lowered her head and said nothing, and she burst into tears as soon as she said that.

When I saw that she was playing really, I was really scared. It was not easy to end now. "Qiao'er, I really said that just because I miss you. I swear that if I lie to you, I will choke to death by eating and drinking water, and let me pick up trash for the rest of my life!"

In fact, to be honest, I have to do this. Girls are so realistic now that I don’t want to find a girlfriend who only loves money, so I told Qiaoer that way. But now I dare to make sure that Qiaoer is definitely not the kind of person who only focuses on money, because she pays attention to money and also pays great attention to feelings.

After hearing my poisonous oath, Qiaoer burst into tears and laughed, looked at me with tears in her eyes, and said, "Jiang Yansan, what you said is really? Didn't you lie to me?"

When I saw the situation turned around, I nodded quickly, "Of course, I will always be a salted fish in front of you. Even if I turn over occasionally, wouldn't it still be a salted fish?"

Qiao'er was angry and laughed. She slapped my chest a few times and scolded me for being bad.

Seeing the situation, I hurriedly took Qiao'er into my arms...

I wanted to do some small moves, but my mother was about to "get it" but she shouted outside, saying that the meal was ready and asked me to take Qiaoer out for dinner as soon as possible.

Helplessly, he had to end the game and hurriedly pulled Qiao'er into the dining room.

"Wow, mom, even if I come back, I don't have to be so generous. Your extravagantness makes me feel very luxurious!" I exclaimed at the table full of food.

"Go and go, rest anywhere, I'm doing it for Qiao'er, let's see how you do it!" My mother replied sternly.

It's over, it seems that I have completely lost my status in this family, I sighed!!

The dishes my mother cooks are delicious, and my chopsticks are busy on the table. "Mom, my second uncle will tell you when will he arrive at our house!" I asked my mother while eating.

"What? Who said your second uncle is coming to our house? Your second uncle went to the United States to rest two years ago. Who knows when will he be back?" My mother replied calmly.

"What? Didn't you call and say that my second uncle is coming to our house on May Day? Could it be that you are fooling me!" I swallowed the rice in my mouth and shouted in surprise.

"What's wrong with fooling you? Can you go home if I don't fool you? What, your dad and I don't need to visit you!" My mother said with confidence.

"But you... can't fool me!" I argued.

"Can I be called fooling? Besides, parents fooling their children is called education!" My mother said, "I don't know what you want to do when you stay in school, so Qiaoer told me all! I haven't settled the score with you yet!" My mother glared at me and said.

"Okay, okay, you Qiaoer, you betray me behind my back to win my mother's joy!" I thought to myself. Looking at Qiaoer again, she was smiling proudly at me.

I was so angry that I was helpless, but I said, "Parents deceive their children are called education. Children deceive their parents to teach and lie, and fool each other is the generation gap!!"

My dad was eating and laughing, listening to the two of us quarrels, neither criticizing nor helping each other, and staying neutral.

"You... no matter how this child speaks, it's all your father is abusive to you. Qiao'er, if you have time, you have to take good care of the mistress for me!" My mother said to Qiao'er.

Qiaoer became even more proud when she heard this and nodded quickly.

"I said mom, don't always call me mistress. I was like this when I was a child, but I still call it like this now. I'm so old. Besides, in this society, lovers or mistresses are called mistresses!" I said dissatisfied.

The three of them laughed loudly after hearing this...

After dinner, I led Qiaoer around my father's study. My father loved reading the bookshelf, and his bookshelf was filled with famous Chinese and foreign books. From the 1959 "On Socialism" published in 1959 and cost 65 cents a book to "Abstract of Chinese Economy" in the 21st century, this bookshelves have witnessed the rapid development of the Chinese economy in the past half century.

Suddenly Qiao'er's eyes lit up and she ran to the photo hanging on the wall of her father's study, "This..., isn't this Bi Shumin? My favorite female writer, Hi, your dad! Your dad is in the photo too!" Qiao'er shouted in surprise at the photo on the wall.

"That was my dad's photo with those writers in Beijing in 2002. Look, this is Jia Pingwa, this is Chen Zhongshi..." I explained to Qiaoer one by one.

"Wow, your dad is really amazing. He knows so many famous writers! Is your dad also a writer?" Qiao'er asked in surprise, with a bright light in her eyes.

I thought for a while and replied, "That's what!"

In fact, my dad is a critic who studies China's economic development. He has published articles in major domestic media. Some famous statements have even been cited by university textbooks. Now my dad is still part-time vice chairman of the Provincial Science and Technology Association, and it is reasonable to know some writers.

But for Qiaoer, a girl who loves snacks, watches Korean dramas, has a little protein, and is a little clever, she will not pay attention to economic newspapers or read economic news. So no matter how famous my father is in the economic world, she will not know. Just like when you mention Yuan Longping to a farmer, he may know, but if you tell him Fahrenheit, s.h.e, they probably won’t know what they say.

In the evening, after dinner and watching TV for a while, Qiaoer finally couldn't stand it anymore. She took a shower and went back to her room to rest.

After looking at my watch, it was past ten o'clock, and I was getting more sleepy and prepared to go back to my room to sleep.

Suddenly, my dad opened the study door and walked out, and said to me, "San'er, come to the study room, will I say something to you?" After that, he went back to the study room.

I wondered, what my dad wants to say, want to talk to me about Qiaoer?

I hesitated and walked into my dad's study.
