Chapter 609 Big brother, I was wrong, please let me go
Feeling angry all the way, Qian Wen returned to Shamao Alley.
On the way, I returned the bicycle I borrowed from my neighbor Aunt Wu’s house.
As soon as he opened the courtyard door, he saw Qiqi carrying a bench and doing homework in the small courtyard.
"Brother?"
Seeing Qian Wen, Qiqi was startled, then overjoyed, dropped his pen and ran towards Qian Wen.
"Brother, when did you come back?"
There was a noise in the main room, and soon, Qiao Simei also ran out.
"Brother, you are back. I miss you so much."
He ran forward, opened his arms, and jumped over happily.
Qian Wen smiled and rubbed Xiao Qiqi's head, then held down Qiao Simei who was about to hug him, "You are a big girl, but you are still so crazy."
"I haven't seen my eldest brother for several months, and I miss him very much.
Give me a hug and welcome big brother home."
Qiao Simei said, moved his arm away with a pusher, hugged his neck and jumped up.
"Crazy." Qian Wen smiled and shook his head.
"Didn't you go back to the attic next door? All the gifts I brought back were put there, didn't you see them?"
Seeing Simei, Qiqi was delighted to see him, and it seemed that they didn't know beforehand that he was back, and Qiao Zuwang was not in the main room, and he didn't know where he went.
"A gift?" Qiao Simei's eyes lit up, she let go of his neck, pulled Qiqi and ran to the attic next door.
"When I came back, Qiqi and I were doing homework in the main room. I was waiting for my sister, so I didn't go to the attic.
Brother, what gift did you bring me?
Is it the nice clothes? Or the Walkman I want?"
Qiao Simei was chirping, pulling Qiqi and running happily through the doorway, disappearing from Qian Wen's sight, but her cheerful voice was still flowing in the air.
The depressed mood caused by Qiao Erqiang just now improved a lot.
I moved a chair from the main room and sat in the small courtyard.
But thinking about it, I still wanted to give Qiao Er a few more blows. As soon as he came back, I rushed to save him. He actually said that he had an Oedipus complex!
"Tomorrow morning training, I want to see if you are capable enough. Even my eldest brother dares to tease you."
"Brother~"
At this time, Qiao Erqiang came back, but he did not dare to enter the door. Instead, he exposed his head, lay at the door, and looked at Qian Wen in the small courtyard fawningly.
Qian Wen heard the sound and glared at him.
"Stand up!"
"okay."
Qiao Erqiang rolled his eyes and did not dare to refute. He stood in the corner with a standard horse step.
The two of them stared at each other, you looked at me and I looked at you.
"Wow~
What a beautiful dress, sparkling and so comfortable to touch.
Wow~
There are still four Walkmans. Brother, you are too arrogant.
There are also hats, food, specialties...
Brother, why don't you go out every six months, so that we will always have gifts."
Qiao Simei's exclamation voice came from the attic next door, which made Qiao Erqiang's heart itch while he was standing still, and Qian Wen had a black line on his forehead.
"Sanli still makes me happy."
Seeing the pitiful look in Qiao Erqiang's eyes, Qian Wen waved helplessly and asked him to take his gift.
"Thank you big brother, big brother is the best.
I must keep it secret, this is a secret between us two brothers."
Ma Liu ran to Qiao Erqiang who was in the attic next door and left him this message.
On the spot, Qian Wen resisted and rolled his eyes.
He murmured, "Qiao Erqiang, I want to see if your skills are as good as your mouth during morning practice tomorrow!"
As you can imagine, Qiao Erqiang was miserable when he was missed.
"Second brother, these are mine, girls' clothes, why are you grabbing them~"
"This, this is yours."
"Qiqi, get that tape for second brother, I'll try to play it on my Walkman."
"Qiqi, this must be delicious, but we'll wait for my sister to come back and eat it together, so be patient."
There was chattering next door, Qian Wen shook his head as he listened, got up and lay down on the lounge chair under the eaves.
A flash, a flash.
The matter between Qiao Erqiang and Ma Suqin was not as serious as he thought, so he was relieved.
A few days later, Qiao Erqiang left Yuhong Machinery Factory, and there was no longer any involvement between the two.
It was near dusk, and the sky was twilight.
Months of running around had made him a little tired. Listening to Qiao Simei's cheerful voice, he slowly closed his eyes.
Qiao Sanli was not here, so he didn't have anything to worry about.
Since entering high school, Qiao Sanli has worked harder on her studies. She comes home very late every day, and even the important task of picking up Qiqi from school has been handed over to Simei early.
Besides, in terms of kung fu, Qiao Sanli was the best. With that short strike, even two or three big men couldn't get in, so he was very relieved.
Listening to the voices of Simei, Erqiang, and Qiqi coming from next door, sleepiness came to his heart. The weather was just right, and Qian Wen slowly fell asleep.
But it's hazy.
A long cry, the roar of an eagle, woke him up.
"day by day?"
"Brother, it seems like he is back every day."
"Tiantian, is it you?"
The eagle's roar was so penetrating that not only Qian Wen heard it, but also Qiao Erqiang and others who were sharing gifts next door.
When Qiao Erqiang heard the voice, he didn't hesitate at all. He immediately dropped the singing tape in his hand and ran to the courtyard, looking up at the sky. Qiqi did the same.
Qian Wen sat up and looked at the orange-red sky near night.
Several black spots kept wandering in the sky, one circle, two circles, three circles, and kept ringing.
In the long cry, Qian Wen could hear the joy.
"Fei Tiantian is back."
Qian Wen stretched out his hand and waved in the air.
Tiantian is the female black kite that Qian Wen tamed in the wetland.
But later on, as the seasons changed and the climate became uncomfortable, Tian Tian had to go to the wintering place. At first, he didn't have any spare money to support Tian Tian in winter, so he didn't keep it with him all the time.
Every day from April to July, they fly back during the breeding season, raise the young eagles, stay with them for several months, and then fly back to the wintering grounds in winter.
Occasionally, there are times when I don’t come back for a certain year.
Last year, Tiantian didn't come back, and Qiao Erqiang and the others were still worried about what happened.
Now it seems that Tiantian is back to raise eaglets again.
Seeing Qian Wen's wave, Tiantian flew down happily, but strangely, several other black kites chirped a few more times, spread their wings and flew away.
Qian Wen looked at it, feeling strange in his heart.
"Brother, why didn't Tiantian's friend follow us down?"
Qiqi, who was running over, also raised his head and asked strangely.
You know, in the past, Tiantian would bring his friends back, and the male black kite would hunt, feed, and raise the eaglets for Tiantian during the breeding season.
But this time, why did it fly away?
Before Qian Wen could figure it out, the voice of his neighbor Aunt Wu came from outside the door.
The voice was very sharp, "Yicheng, why is your eagle back again?
After finally having a peaceful life for a year, it’s here again this year, my God.
My pigeons are afraid to return to their nests.
If you frighten my pigeons away, I will come to your house for food and accommodation!"
Qian Wen, Qiao Erqiang, and Qiao Simei looked at each other, shrugged, and smiled at each other.
My neighbor Aunt Wu's family raised pigeons and made chicken gizzards. There were eagles in their house every day. In the past, Aunt Wu often came to their house to talk about it.
"Aunt Wu, I know. I will control Tiantian and let him bark freely at home."
Qian Wen stood up and flew down, already familiar with Tiantian, and stood under the eaves of the old house, where was the wooden house they built for Tiantian.
"Also, don't let it catch my pigeons, I have to sell them for money."
Aunt Wu appeared at the door, looking at Tiantian who was nestled in the nest and active, she said depressedly.
"Aunt Wu, Tiantian is very good and won't catch your pigeons." Qiao Erqiang said.
"If it wasn't so obedient, I would drive it away no matter what."
Aunt Wu is the kind of neighbor who has a sharp mouth and a soft heart. Even if she yells a lot, if something happens to her neighbor, she is willing to help and run up and down.
Qian Wen didn't care about some of her words. He was an old neighbor and no one knew who she was.
"Simei, go next door and get some food for Aunt Wu that I brought back from other provinces." Qian Wen ordered.
"No, no, no."
He said it in his mouth, but he didn't take a step.
Qiao Simei quickly brought a few packages of specialties from other provinces from next door.
Aunt Wu just left.
"I'm not willing to eat it yet."
Simei pouted, she was waiting for Sanli to come back and eat together, but she didn't expect to send it to her neighbor first.
Qian Wen smiled and rubbed her head, "You are so clever, you always give me extra.
Be generous, Aunt Wu is pretty good."
"Her loud voice..."
Qian Wen walked under the eaves, looked up at Tiantian, and realized something was wrong.
The hawk's eyes that should have been sharp every day became cloudy.
Let Erqiang find a book and put it on his arm. Let Tiantian fly down and land on his arm.
He found……
"Brother, Tiantian's feathers seem to be less shiny than before."
The keenly observant Qiqi whispered.
Qian Wen nodded.
After taking a closer look and reaching out to check, Hei Yuantian must have entered old age.
Its beak is somewhat blunted, its claws are aging, and its feathers are calcifying, unlike when it was young.
"Tiantian, are you old?" Qiao Simei looked at Tiantian and asked.
"Well, I'm getting older every day."
The black kite is a medium-sized raptor with a lifespan of about 30 years. It has been 11 years since he tamed Tiantian. In addition to the years Tiantian had soared in the blue sky, it must have come back to wait for it to pass away when it flew back this time.
"Brother..."
Qiao Erqiang is the most loving to these little animals in his family. When Luhua passed away, he cried inconsolably. Now that Tiantian has arrived, he feels very uncomfortable.
"Okay, just ask Dabai and Erbai to stop yelling at Tiantian all the time.
Now I can’t stand being beaten by them every day.”
On the side, Zai Tiantian appeared, Dabai and Erbai came out of their cages.
He opened his big wings and flapped his wings, full of hostility towards Tiantian.
Qiao Erqiang went to comfort Dabai Erbai, who was looking after the home, and the big white cat and little Mianmian.
Qian Wen found some meat, cut it into strips, and asked Qi Qi to feed it every day.
After Tiantian had eaten and drank enough, he flew back to his familiar nest and closed his eagle eyes.
"Tomorrow, stuff Tiantian's nest with some old clothes, strips of cloth, etc." Qian Wen said.
Just now the other black kites didn't follow, Qian Wen knew that Tiantian wouldn't leave this time.
Half an hour later, as it was getting dark, Qiao Sanli came back pushing her bicycle.
Seeing that Qian Wen had returned home, he was very happy. Like Simei, he jumped over and hugged his neck and started jumping around.
At night, there were just the five of them. Qiao Zuwang didn't know where he had lost it. Anyway, they were used to it.
Qian Wen divided the gifts he brought back.
Each person has new clothes, a Walkman, some novel jewelry, pendants, and a bunch of delicious food.
Regarding Qiao Erqiang's decision to drop out of school and go to work, Sanli specifically explained to him and asked him not to blame his second brother.
Similar to what Qiao Erqiang said, it was all the good deeds of Qiao Zuwang, the living ancestor.
Although Qiao Erqiang is not very good at studying, he is too short-sighted.
If your child is still willing to study and study hard, you will drop him out of school.
This is Qiao Erqiang, a scumbag. If Qiao Sanli lets him do this, Qian Wen will have to practice with him.
In the evening, he solved some academic problems in Sanli. The foundation is very solid. The recent exam is at the top of his grade. He is really relieved.
In his own room, with the night light on, Qian Wen excerpted on white paper the famous recipes from various worlds on the bookshelf in his memory, especially the secret delicacies of the imperial kitchen when he was the emperor in Shinhwa.
He unified the place, and as a gourmet, he vigorously developed this area to satisfy his own appetite.
Under the leadership of chef Gao Yao, who is also a time traveler, he has created not too many delicacies that have been handed down from generation to generation.
After abdicating the throne, he had nothing to do in his old age and liked these things.
Now write it out for Qiao Erqiang as his plug-in.
He still approves of Qiao Erqiang's cooking aspect.
What is a celebrity chef?
A chef with a unique recipe has the potential to become a famous chef.
“Kung Fu Chef Qiao Erqiang is also pretty good.”
Qian Wen touched his chin and thought.
Of course, this is just conjecture. There are no Kung Fu chefs in reality.
The next day, early in the morning.
When Qiao Zu came back in the middle of the night, he looked at the bedroom, covered his head with a pillow and fell asleep.
Qian Wen and Qiao Erqiang were sparring, and Qiao Simei, who was flexing his muscles next to him, watched him startled and cover his eyes.
Looking through his fingers, he looked at the second brother who was screaming repeatedly.
"Sister, eldest brother still hasn't forgiven the second brother for dropping out of school and going to work?" Qiao Simei moved to Sanli's side and asked in a low voice.
Sanli was instructing Qiqi. She glanced at Qian Wen and was puzzled. She shook her head and said, "I explained it to my elder brother last night.
Brother is not angry either."
Only Qiao Erqiang knew why his elder brother was so aggressive this morning than before.
My hands kept parrying, my arms and leg bones ached, my face turned red, and I cried bitterly in my heart, 'Why do you want to expose Big Brother in front of me?
Qiao Erqiang, you can't remain silent!
In front of the eldest brother, if you say that the eldest brother has an Oedipus complex, aren't you asking for help?
Look, look.
Isn’t this coming?’
Qiao Erqiang cried bitterly in his heart, but he became even more convinced that his elder brother was covering up something.
He guessed right.
Sister Sophia is the proof!
"You still dare to be distracted. It seems that you have a lot of things on your mind. Tell me, brother, and listen?"
Qian Wen made light of the situation, including cutting and beating.
Qiao Erqiang first felt a tightness in his chest, then his arms went numb, and then his lower body slipped, and he fell to the ground on all fours.
"Brother, I was wrong, please let me go!"
Qiao Erqiang didn't want to get up anymore, so he hugged his legs and pretended to be pitiful.
It hurt so much. My brother seemed to have done it on purpose this time. He felt pain all over his body, and his muscles were sore and numb.
Qian Wen took the stance of a master and raised his foot to break away from Qiao Erqiang's hand, and then said calmly, "It seems that you have slacked off during my absence, and your kung fu has deteriorated so much.
Get up and continue!”
He didn't mean to retaliate at all, it was just because Qiao Erqiang was lax and didn't work hard enough, and he looked heartbroken.
Qiao Erqiang got up helplessly. Qian Wen waved to him, then approached him and launched another set of combos that were difficult to parry.
Qiao Erqiang once again lay down neatly on the ground.
Qian Wen slowly exhaled, then without changing his expression, he waved to Qiao Erqiang, who was on the ground panting heavily and unwilling to get up, "Come again!"
"Brother, I was so wrong~"
Si Mei covered her eyes, unable to bear to see.
Qiao Erqiang wailed, fell down, and was getting up.
Qian Wen felt comfortable, his qi and blood flowed smoothly, and he was in a happy mood.
This beautiful morning has passed.
At the dinner table, as if she had taken the wrong medicine, Qiao Simei assured her with a firm expression that she would study hard, make progress every day, and live up to her elder brother's nurturing grace.
It is difficult for the children of the Qiao family to have a rebellious period.
When you want to be rebellious, you should first consider your own size to see if you can allow it.
What the ancestors said is correct, the stick will come out...
In the 1970s and 1980s, this was the most effective education method.
Don't talk about what you have and what you don't have.
How come there are so many dead and alive people in later generations? Children are all very thick-skinned.
Anyone who has not been beaten by his parents has an incomplete childhood.
Qian Wen thought that in the drama Qiao Erqiang and Qiao Simei were doted on by Qiao Yicheng.
After dinner, Qian Wen and Qiao Erqiang sent Qiqi to school, and the two of them went to Yuhong Machinery Factory.
I found the deputy factory director, stuffed some money, and asked Xiaoyi, the second son of my second aunt's family, to take over Qiao Erqiang's position.
After all, they are all apprentices, the wages are low, and the positions are vacant, so no one can do it.
The deputy director put the money in his pocket and said seriously, "I'll let your cousin take up the post in the next few days, otherwise I won't wait until the expiration date."
Qian Wen smiled and nodded, dragging the aggrieved Qiao Erqiang away.
At this time, it is not easy to find a serious apprenticeship. Qian Wen thought of his second aunt Wei Shufang and how his uncle took care of their family. Spending a small amount of money would make the family happy, so why not do it.
After finishing this matter, Qian Wen still wanted to take Qiao Erqiang to the next place, but after they had already arrived, Qiao Erqiang still wanted to say goodbye to his master Ma Suqin.
Qian Wen also followed.
