Chapter 1719 I'm here to pick peaches (1)
"Eiko, are everything ready?"
"Don't worry, everything is ready."
When Qiao Weidong saw Qiao Yingzi coming out of the unit building, he hurriedly greeted her and handed over the donut in his hand: "Here, breakfast, dad bought it at your favorite Dunkin' Donuts."
"Thank you, dad." Qiao Yingzi smiled, took the plastic bag containing breakfast, took out a donut and took a bite, showing a satisfied expression on her face.
"Have a sip of coffee, have a cup of refreshment in the morning, and do your best later."
He handed over the espresso coffee in his hand again.
Qiao Yingzi whined in agreement, took a sip from the straw, and swallowed the food in her mouth: "It's too sweet, Dad, you put too much sugar."
"Really? Dad will be less careful in the future."
Qiao Weidong responded and looked at the dial on his watch: "It's getting late. I'm worried about the traffic jam on the road. Let's go eat in the car."
Qiao Yingzi nodded and followed her father to the parking lot: "Dad, where is Lin Yue? Didn't he say we should go together?"
Qiao Weidong said: "I just sent him a message. He said he was memorizing English words in the park opposite. Let's go first. He took the subway there, which was faster than us."
"That's true."
In a big city like Beijing, 8:15 in the morning is the peak traffic hour. Not to mention heavy traffic jams, even if there is no traffic jam, taking the subway is no slower than driving. The main reason is that driving is more convenient, and it is not windy, rainy, cold, or hot.
No, it would help her adjust her mentality and calm down her emotions.
"Let's go."
"Walk."
Qiao Weidong led the way, but not far away, the father and daughter were blocked by Song Qian.
"Qiao Weidong! Where are you taking Yingzi?"
This roar frightened the two of them.
"I...I didn't...didn't take Yingzi anywhere..."
"If the mother of a senior high school student hadn't grabbed me to ask about the cram school, I would have slipped away for you two. Qiao Weidong, didn't you just meet Yingzi the day before yesterday? Tell me, did you want to take her with you while I was away?
Going to the planetarium?”
Qiao Weidong was so anxious that he wanted to slap his thigh. Why do you think it's so small? That person didn't ask about the cram school earlier, and he didn't ask about the cram school until later, but he asked now.
"Don't I want to take her to a movie on Saturday to relax? I've already bought your tickets."
After speaking, he took out his cell phone and waved it in front of Song Qian.
"Editor, continue to edit." Song Qian walked over, grabbed Qiao Yingzi's wrist and pulled it back: "You are already a senior in high school, and the time for review is getting shorter and shorter every day. You are not allowed to go anywhere this weekend. Mom is with you, just
Study hard at home.”
"Song Qian, my child has been preparing for this for two whole weeks, why do you just let her go this time?" Qiao Weidong became anxious when he saw his daughter pouting and looking unhappy.
"You still said you weren't going to the planetarium, Qiao Weidong, is there any truth in your mouth?" Song Qian was also angry: "The first time was a telescope, the second time was Lego toys, this is the third time, Yingzi is in her senior year of high school, I
Let me ask you, how many senior years of high school are there in your life? There will be many opportunities for her to give lectures at the planetarium when she is admitted to college, but the college entrance examination is basically just this one time, and it has delayed your daughter's life. Can you bear this responsibility? "
Qiao Weidong wanted to say that I was her father, but I shouldered the responsibility, but when I saw Song Qian's menopausal face, I was scared. I suddenly felt that Lin Yue's use of the word "domina" to describe her was very appropriate.
"Nothing to say?" Song Qian glared at him coldly and pulled Qiao Yingzi away.
Seeing the pitiful look of his daughter turning back every three steps, Qiao Weidong felt extremely uncomfortable. He picked up a donut and stuffed it into his mouth. He chewed it twice in anger. It was obviously sweet, but it felt very unpleasant.
Song Qian took Qiao Yingzi home, first lit the gas stove, boiled a pot of water, and then went to the refrigerator to take out the frozen dumplings.
Originally, she was going to the supermarket to buy seaweed and tuna chunks to make sushi. Now that something like this happened, she couldn't go downstairs anymore. She had to keep an eye on her daughter to avoid letting Qiao Weidong take advantage of her again.
"Yingzi, come on, let's drink a glass of milk first."
Song Qian walked into Qiao Yingzi's bedroom with a cup of heated milk. When she saw her sitting in front of the desk with a frown on her face, her mouth raised to the sky, she laughed, touched her hair and said: "Yingzi, you have to know, Mom
He is the person closest to you in this world, how could he harm you? In fact, seeing
If you are unhappy, your mother will feel sad too, but there is nothing you can do. What is the third year of high school? The third year of high school is when thousands of troops cross a single-plank bridge. If you don’t seize the time, others may seize the time and squeeze you out. As the old saying goes, study hard in a humble window.
After more than ten years, and now you are backing off at the last moment, wouldn’t that mean all your previous efforts have been wasted?”
Qiao Yingzi took several deep breaths, her mouth was still pouting, but her face improved a lot.
"Okay, drink the milk. Mom will call you when the dumplings are ready."
After Song Qian finished speaking, she went out.
Governor Qiao Yingzi couldn't make it to the speech no matter what. She sighed heavily and was about to pick up the cup to drink milk when the screen of her mobile phone lit up, showing that someone had sent a message.
It's Lin Yue.
She unlocked the screen and pointed her finger. The first thing that appeared was a photo. On the huge screen in front were the four characters of CNSA. The background was the vast starry sky. Below were rows of seats. There were crowds of people in the middle. Not to mention that the seats were packed, at least 100.
Eighty percent of the seats are occupied.
At this time, a line of Chinese characters popped up in the dialogue window: "Why haven't you come yet? It starts in ten minutes."
Qiao Yingzi thought for a while and replied: "I can't go. My mother caught me as soon as I got downstairs."
"What should we do? Have you contacted the people at the planetarium?"
"I was about to call to talk about this when you sent me a message."
"Then are you willing?"
"So what if you don't give in? You can't fall out with my mother just to give a lecture at the planetarium."
"I do have a compromise."
"What can I do?"
"Send me the materials you compiled, and I will help you make a speech."
"You? Can you do it? The speech involves a lot of professional English vocabulary in aerospace engineering, and the manuscript is very long. It will be difficult to master it without preparation in advance."
"My English is still good, so give it a try. Whether it works or not will be decided by the staff of the planetarium. If you pass, your efforts will be considered in vain."
Qiao Yingzi thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. Now that Song Qian was locked up at home, she was destined to miss this speech. Thinking of this, she quickly turned on the camera, took a photo of the file and sent it to Lin Yue.
The next step is to wait for the results.
"Yingzi, Yingzi, it's time to eat. Mom cooked your favorite crystal shrimp dumplings."
"oh."
She agreed and walked out of the bedroom with her cell phone.
While Qiao Yingzi was anxiously waiting for the results, Ji Yangyang's mother Liu Jing was quietly communicating with a female staff member in the last row of aisle seats in the lecture hall of the planetarium.
"This...are you sure it's okay?"
"Sister Liu, I just had a talk with him. There was no problem. Judging from the content of the speech, he shouldn't have lied when he said that he and Qiao Yingzi were together."
Liu Jing nodded: "That's good."
At this moment, the lights cast from the ceiling slowly dimmed, and the big screen began to play related videos.
"Hello everyone, I am your commentator Lin Yue. Today on the public day, I will take you to understand how China's Chang'e and Jade Rabbit conquered the moon step by step. But before that, let me declare one thing. Originally, this time The speech was given by Qiao Yingzi, a senior at Chunfeng Middle School. Unfortunately, due to some special reasons, she could not come to the planetarium, so she asked me to use the materials she carefully prepared to serve everyone."
"..."
"Our ancestors have been looking up at the stars since the distant past. They created beautiful myths like Chang'e flying to the moon. Today, our astronauts have realized this myth. This is the progress of science and the progress of several generations of astronauts. The result of hard work..."
Liu Jing, who was sitting in the audience, nodded frequently.
"This Lin Yue speaks English really well. By the way, he and Qiao Yingzi are classmates, right?"
The female staff member said: "Yes, I was originally going to listen to Qiao Yingzi's speech, but Qiao Yingzi had something to do and couldn't come."
"The third year of Chunfeng Middle School..."
Liu Jing was thoughtful, so he and Ji Yangyang are also classmates? It seems that after returning home, he will have to find a chance to ask his son if he knows a student named Qiao Yingzi and a student named Lin Yue from Chunfeng Middle School. In addition, she felt that the boy standing on the podium looked familiar, as if she had met him somewhere.
When she was sorting out the relationship between her three children in her mind, she was awakened by the discussion in front of her. She quickly stopped her chaotic thoughts and looked up to notice the expression on her colleague's face, which was a very surprised expression.
Chapter completed!
