Chapter 74
As it was the last day of the trip, the kindergarten prepared a bunch of gifts for the children.
Children can use gold beans to exchange for their favorite gifts.
It was the last day of the activity and many children no longer had any gold beans in their hands.
There are only about ten children who still have the gold beans in stock, and the children who don’t have the gold beans are extremely envious.
Xiao Zhuang touched his pocket and found that he still had twenty or thirty gold beans.
He didn't know if Long Qi Che still had it. They were partners and he planned to give half to Long Qi Che so that Long Qi Che could also exchange it for gifts.
"Xiao Che, Doudou, here."
"Thank you, I still have some." Long Qi Che dug into his pocket and took out a handful of golden beans. There were indeed quite a few left.
The gifts prepared by the kindergarten are all packed in gift boxes. No one knows what is inside, so the children can only open the blind boxes to see what they get.
The children of Jindoudou were also extremely excited and wanted to get the gift box quickly.
"And all the children from Golden Beans are lining up here."
Among the children in the kindergarten class, only Xiao Zhuang and Long Qi Che still have gold beans left. In previous activities, gold beans can be used not only to exchange for task materials but also for snacks and toys. The other children had already spent all their money.
Xiao Zhuang couldn't count how many gold beans he had left, and the children lined up to exchange them for gifts.
He held the golden beans in front of the teacher and said, "Teacher, I want to exchange for a gift."
"Okay, classmate, you can exchange your beans for three. Go over there and choose."
"Thank you, teacher." Xiao Zhuang bowed in gratitude.
"How come this kid is so polite?"
Xiao Zhuang didn't hear the teacher's praise of him, he walked towards the pile of gifts.
He and Long Qi Che had about the same number of gold beans left, and both of them exchanged for three.
The little zombie immediately ran to his father with the gift box in his arms, "Dad, this is for you."
Jiang Chen felt so touched by his son. Xiao Jiang always thought about him no matter what he did. Jiang Chen felt both distressed and proud that his son was such a sensible and thoughtful child.
In the past, when he was in Dongqi, he was afraid that Xiao Jiang, as a prince, would be too kind-hearted and would be easily wronged when he grew up. After all, he was the queen of a country and had seen all kinds of dirty things in the court and the backyard.
Fortunately, he and Xiao Zhuang came to the interstellar space, and they no longer have to deal with the complicated interpersonal relationships of the past. They no longer have to be used as pawns by others since childhood. Xiao Zhuang can grow up happily like an ordinary child.
Xiao Zhuang gave his father a gift and then ran towards Shu Jinye with the gift box in his arms.
Children don't hold grudges. After spending these days together, he has forgotten that Shu Jinye made his father angry. Moreover, Shu Jinye really takes care of him and protects him like his own son.
"Xiao Zhuang, are you going to give me a gift too?" Shu Jinye's eyes lit up when he saw Xiao Zhuang running towards him.
"Uh-huh."
Shu Jinye was overjoyed, his heart as sweet as honey, "Thank you, Xiao Jiang."
The little boy ran back to his father's arms with a red face.
Long Qi Che gave the two gifts to his father and father, and the couple were so moved that they burst into tears.
"Xiao Che will give Dad a gift. Dad is so happy."
"I knew our little Che was the best. I'll ask the housekeeper to arrange a celebration when I get back."
"You two are exaggerating a bit." Long Qi Che was speechless.
But looking back on this period of time, he has indeed changed a lot.
He seemed to never pay attention to these details before.
Xiao Zhuang stayed with his father for a while, and then he walked towards Long Qi Che holding the last gift box.
"Xiao Che, this is for you."
The gift box was wrapped in colorful paper and tied with a big bow.
"Thank you, thank you. This is for you too." Long Qi Che originally wanted to give the last gift to Xiao Zhuang, but he didn't expect that Xiao Zhuang had the same idea as him.
After the two cubs exchanged gifts, the little zombie couldn't wait to open them.
Xiao Zhuang's fingers were usually trimmed smooth by Jiang Chen, and he couldn't tear open the package for a long time.
Seeing this, Shu Jinye hurried over to help.
A limited edition plush Dream Bear was found in Xiao Zhuang’s gift. The bear is very cute and you can DIY his clothes and an ID card.
Xiao Zhuang liked it so much that he held it tightly and refused to let go.
After opening Long Qi Che's gift box, he unexpectedly found a bear from the same series as Xiao Zhuang.
"What a coincidence, you can play with the bear together from now on."
"Yeah." Long Qi Che's face turned slightly red as he hugged the little bear.
Dad Long was taking pictures very hard. It was his son's first time and he was shy, so he had to record it.
The cruise ship docked at the port of arrival, marking the end of the journey.
The children go home to rest for two days and then go back to school as usual.
The comprehensive practical course for college students lasts for two weeks, after which they will continue to spend a few days with the children.
Xiao Zhuang, holding the teddy bear and pulling his cartoon suitcase, walked off the cruise ship with his father.
The pink rabbit butler was waiting at the port early.
The little zombie walked off the cruise ship and pounced on the pink rabbit butler, "Rabbit~"
"Master Xiaojiang, I miss you so much~"
"Raise it high." Xiao Zhuang raised his hand.
"Okay, okay~" The pink rabbit picked up the little zombie and spun around in circles.
The little zombie likes to be held by the pink rabbit. The pink rabbit is usually floating in the air, so being held by the pink rabbit feels like flying.
Jiang Chen was smiling on the side. Seeing Xiao Zhuang was so happy, he was happy too.
Shu Jinye, who was not far away, stared at the happy family over there and sighed that time passed too quickly. How could seven days go by in the blink of an eye?
Fortunately, the practical class has not yet ended, so I can still be with Xiao Zhuang in the next few days.

After being away for a week and returning home, everything has changed.
The construction team worked very quickly, and in just one week, the entire facade and structure of the mansion were completed.
Only the customized interior furniture and soft furnishings are slowly entering the market.
The shrine road several kilometers from the entrance is also paved with bluestone slabs, and the dilapidated stone statues and auspicious animal stone carvings are also customized and placed on both sides of the shrine road, which looks solemn and dignified.
Walking along the sacred path, there is a cloud of mountain mist. After passing through the mist, the magnificent pavilions and towers appear before your eyes.
This time, Jiang Chen did not design the house according to the standards of an imperial palace. It was just for him and his son Xiao Zhuang to live in, and they just wanted to live comfortably.
The entire building area is about the same size as a royal palace, with nine steps, nine layers of door nails, and ten courtyards.
There are two white marble lions on the left and right in front of the main gate, and the ground is paved with rain flower stones, forming a complete landscape painting.
Open the three-meter-high black lacquered door, and the relief screen with the auspicious pattern of five blessings holding longevity blocks the view inside.
Standing on the auspicious white marble, passing the screen wall and walking through the courtyard, behind the huge front gate building, you will see a huge artificial lake. The millstone and gold coin path are built into an arch bridge, and there is a glazed pavilion surrounded by bamboo forests on the small island in the middle of the lake. There is also a fishing platform on the lakeside.
Crossing the artificial lake, you will see the house with stacked stones, flowing water, whitewashed walls and black tiles, flying eaves and upturned corners, blue bricks and black tiles. The magnificent panoramic view of the north is embedded with the exquisite scenery of Jiangnan architecture.
The dragon-arch wall, crescent-shaped gate, square pond and waterside pavilion, flying corridor and pavilion, and corners and edges are all exquisitely designed. Each one is connected to the main building, making it convenient to walk on rainy days.
The main courtyard has its own garden and a huge koi pond, with fish swimming in the shallow water. Taihu stones and rockery are staggered and stacked layer by layer. Behind the moon-shaped gate leading to a secluded path is the Snow Viewing Pavilion. When it rains, the rain hits the banana trees.
The stepping stones used in the house are all of the best quality, and the flowers and plants are also of great exquisiteness, all carefully selected by Jiang Chen.
The entire building is full of the charm of ancient countries, and it also incorporates the most advanced high-tech security system and intelligent control system in the universe.
The security system is the monopoly business of the twins, and intelligent control is the monopoly of the immortals.
Jiang Chen has always been willing to spend money on this aspect, and the construction of the entire house has surpassed most of the top luxury houses on the market.
Anyway, he didn't feel sorry at all. Before he was buried alive, he had already emptied out Emperor Chen's private treasury. He owed it to them, father and son, and it would be a waste if he didn't use it.
When we came back, it was raining in the mountains, and the air was filled with the mixed sweet smell of plants and soil.
Jiang Chen stood at the door holding Xiao Zhuang. Now they finally had a decent home.
"Dad, a new house." Xiao Zhuang clapped his hands.
"Yes, this is our home, come in."
Pushing open the door, every part was built strictly according to Jiang Chen's design drawings. The house that would take several years to build in Dongqi was completed in just one week in Xingji. Jiang Chen was very satisfied.
The main courtyard has been decorated, and the other courtyards are still empty. Jiang Chen is not in a hurry and will put them in order slowly later.
Usually he and Xiao Zhuang hang out in the main courtyard.
The main building has three floors and two underground floors, with a pure Dongqi style.
Combining the past and the present, the household appliances are all interstellar and complement each other perfectly.
The main building has scenery on three sides, facing the lotus pond and the Snow Viewing Pavilion in the courtyard.
As soon as Xiao Zhuang entered the yard, he couldn't wait to rush into the house. He looked around curiously. This place was very similar to where he used to live.
The pink rabbit hung beautiful colorful strips in the house to welcome the owner home.
As a professional butler, I always pay attention to the sense of ceremony.
"Welcome home, Master."
"Master Butler is thoughtful."
The antique shelves in the house are all empty, and now Jiang Chen can finally display all his collections.
Jiang Chen carried the little zombie to take a bath.
The housekeeper arranged a welcoming banquet, and Jiang Chen and Xiao Jiang did not spoil the fun and enjoyed it with great courtesy.
After dinner, Jiang Chen and Xiao Zhuang lay on the bed together for a nap. Xiao Zhuang nestled beside his father, with his little hands in his mouth, sleeping soundly.
Jiang Chen kissed his forehead. After the rain, the sun shone through the window lattice into the house. His life now was comfortable and peaceful, just what he wanted.
Pink Rabbit was cleaning up downstairs. He washed Little Zombie's favorite huggable horror bear and dream bear until they smelled delicious.
The two little bears were hung on the clothesline together. He nodded and said, "Now the young master has another little bear. That's great."
The other side.
Long Qi Che returned home with a gloomy face again.
He lay motionless on the bed holding the teddy bear, his handsome face showing annoyance. The chaotic voices in his head annoyed him. He sent away all the servants and went home because of his shielding.
"Baby, why are you unhappy? Aren't you fine on the cruise ship?" Daddy Long said worriedly as he sat beside the bed.
"Nothing, go ahead and do your work. I need to rest."
"Why are you so cold to daddy as soon as you get back?"
Is his son just pretending to be good? Father Long thought to himself.
Hearing his father's thoughts, Long Qi Che couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"I know what you're thinking."
"Uh uh uh...then your father and I won't bother you for now."
After the man closed the door and left, Long Qi Che felt a little better.
However, there are people in this building who are secretly protecting him, so his mind is not completely calm.
"Oh...it would be nice if I could be with Xiao Zhuang 24 hours a day."
Xiao Zhuang slept until the afternoon. He played in the toy castle in the living room for a while and then went to the study to find his father.
Jiang Chen was catching up on his studies in interstellar mathematics, and he had not stopped studying even when traveling with Xiao Zhuang.
Within a week he had mastered elementary school mathematics.
"Dad, Xiao Zhuang is going to class."
"Okay, Dad will be right here."
Jiang Chen enrolled Xiao Jiang in an online early childhood education course, but he had been delayed by traveling and had not attended the course.
Today is Xiao Zhuang’s first class, which is held in his own study.
Xiao Zhuang's study is covered with carpet in a children's style.
Jiang Chen is not very good at operating the holographic screen, so Pink Rabbit helps him.
Children attending class for the first time need to be accompanied by their parents.
Xiao Zhuang sat on the carpet and stared at the screen obediently.
Pink Rabbit always felt that the child was missing something, so he took the dried teddy bear and put it into Little Zombie's arms.
"Thank you, Bunny."
"Young Master is so good."
The online course teacher is a gentle young lady. Xiao Jiang cooperated very well throughout the whole process and did not make any noise. The teacher kept encouraging and praising Xiao Jiang.
With the help of Pink Rabbit, Xiaojiang had an easy time taking his first online class. Children learn while playing, and there are also somatosensory digital games in the classroom.
In the first class, Xiao Zhuang learned to count from 1 to 20.
After class, Jiang Chen did not forget to review the lesson with Xiao Jiang. He took Xiao Jiang home to count.
"Dad, 11 spoons."
"The little zombie is so powerful!"
"Five racks."
"That's right."
"Nineteen jars." Xiao Zhuang pointed at the antiques on the display cabinet.
"Hmm, yeah."
Pink Rabbit also found that Xiao Zhuang was very smart. He could learn anything he learned immediately and apply what he learned to other situations. Many children could only count one type of object when they first started learning to count, and they would not recognize the object at all when they changed to another type.
"My little zombie master is awesome."
The little zombie blushed at the praise. He hugged the teddy bear and hid behind the cabinet with only his head showing.
"Okay, now you can watch cartoons."
Jiang Chen smiled and turned on the holographic TV for Xiao Zhuang.
Xiao Zhuang quickly climbed onto the couch in the living room and turned on "Mech Warrior".
Jiang Chen stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room holding a teacup. It was already dark outside, and the lights in the yard were on. The courtyard at night had a unique artistic conception under the lights.
"It's a wonderful time now. We can enjoy the courtyard even at night."

Shu Jinye was distracted after returning home. He felt unwell all over after being away from Xiao Jiang for only a few hours.
