Qiao Yunbai screamed, ran over excitedly, touched the two bicycles, and then ran home like crazy.
"Mom, my eldest sister bought another bicycle. She said she would keep it at home for future use." Qiao Yunbai shouted at the top of his voice, shaking the car keys in his pocket.
After Qiao Xinyi came up, she looked inside and didn't see Qiao Yunsong, so she turned around and asked Chen Yubing.
"He will be late for his inspection," Chen Yubing said. "He said he would be home before dinner. By the way, Yunsong and I went to the small courtyard he rented at noon and brought some eggs, two pounds of meat, and two cans of canned food. I went to thank the old man specially. Yunsong will learn chemistry from him in the future. I am grateful to him in my heart."
After Qiao Yunsong returned to the provincial capital, in addition to Qiao Xinyi who helped him, the old man also took good care of him. As a mother, Chen Yubing was grateful to everyone who helped Qiao Yunsong.
"The master is indeed a nice person." Qiao Xinyi nodded.
"It's really good. He also suggested that I go to night school to continue my studies. He said that there are accounting courses in night school. If I can get a diploma, I can switch to being an accountant after graduation."
After Chen Yubing finished speaking, she was a little undecided, so she asked Qiao Xinyi, "Do you think it's appropriate for Mom to go through so much trouble at her age?"
Chen Yubing expressed her worries, "What if I can't learn it? Wouldn't it be a waste of money?"
"Learning is something that is suitable for people of all ages." Qiao Xinyi agreed immediately. "Working in a workshop is indeed very hard. I think your suggestion is very good."
Qiao Xinyi didn't have enough information about this era. If she had thought of it earlier, she would have sent Chen Yubing to night school.
It just so happens that these two days are the registration period for the new semester of night school.
"Mom, our family doesn't have any financial pressure anymore, so you don't have to worry about wasting money. Money can be earned back after spending it, so don't worry about it."
“You have to learn it first to know whether you can learn it or not. You should sign up for a semester first. If you really can’t learn it, you will just waste the tuition for this semester.
But what if mom can learn it? Study for two years, get a diploma and then change jobs. Then I won’t have to spend my whole life in the workshop. ”
"Your health is not as good as your colleagues in the workshop. You are now 10 years old and feel that although work is hard, you can hold on. But if you continue to waste time, it will only become more and more difficult as you get older."
Chen Yubing suffered a lot when she was young, working overtime every day with almost no time to rest. Now she looks older than her peers. In addition, she is worried and upset every day, which is even more harmful to her health.
"Mom, I support you going to night school just like my elder sister." Qiao Yunbai said loudly, "Mom, you are only ten years old, it's the right age to fight!"
Chen Yubing was amused. "You are already 10 years old. You can retire in another 10 years. You are still at an age to work hard, right?"
"My eldest sister said that as long as people are not dead, they are at the right age to fight." Qiao Yunbai shrugged. "This kind of perverse reasoning that sounds reasonable is not something I can say."
"Eldest sister said this even when she was coaxing Xiaozhou and Xiaoyu." Qiao Yunbai glanced at Qiao Xinyi, "When it comes to me, this is the age where I should learn as much as I can."
"Okay, since Xinyi said so, then Mom will give it a try." Chen Yubing made up her mind.
If she can successfully transfer to another position, her salary can be raised further.
As long as they work in the same factory, her job change will not affect her length of service.
When Qiao Yunsong came back, he brought a basket of grapes. You could tell how good his mood was by looking at how briskly he walked.
Going home is a very common thing, but it is a very happy thing for him.
"Mom, big sister, Yunsong, I'm back." Qiao Yunsong put the bamboo basket on the table. "This is what my friends brought to me to celebrate my return home. I've tasted it and it's so sweet. Big sister is pregnant, so eating more fruits is good for the baby. They say that if you eat more grapes, the baby's eyes will be as beautiful as grapes."
"Your friends are so polite." Chen Yubing said, "If you think a good friend, you can bring him home and mom will make delicious food for you."
Qiao Yunsong didn't bother to be polite with Chen Yubing and agreed directly. While she was talking, Zhang Hua suddenly called out to her door.
"Chen Yubing, your Lily is back!"
The people in the room were all surprised when they heard this. They turned around and looked outside the door, and saw Qiao Baili had already arrived at the door.
"Mom, I'm back." Qiao Baili said standing at the door, her eyes falling directly on Qiao Yunsong's face. Her eyes gradually turned red, and then she stepped forward and hugged Qiao Yunsong tightly.
Qiao Baili didn't say anything, she just hugged Qiao Yunsong tightly and cried softly.
She couldn't say anything, only tears could express her emotions at this moment.
"Aunt Chen, I'm here again~" Tang Yuanchao showed his face outside the door, "The principal heard that Lily's brother, who had been missing for eleven years, had returned home, so he made an exception and gave Lily three days of home visit leave. I thought Lily would not let him go if he came back alone, so I specially came back with her."
"Thank you, Auntie." Chen Yubing quickly pulled Tang Yuanchao into the house. "Are you tired from coming all the way back? Auntie will get you some water. Our Lily is very much cared for by you."
Qiao Baili hugged Qiao Yunsong and cried for a long time before she let go of him embarrassedly and wiped her tears.
"Sister." Qiao Yunsong looked at Qiao Baili for a long time. In fact, the relative he missed most during these years when he misunderstood his mother was his sister.
Because since he was a child, it has always been his elder sister who has taken care of him, coaxed him, and indulged him.
“Yeah!” Qiao Baili responded loudly, with tears in her eyes, “Just go home.”
Chen Yubing was very happy when Qiao Baili suddenly came back. Her children were all by her side. This was the first real reunion in her life.
Chen Yubing cooked in the corridor without asking anyone for help. She kneaded the dough and looked back into the house from time to time.
Listening to her children's laughter and looking at their faces, isn't this the most enviable happiness in life?
Tang Yuanchao only found out that Qiao Xinyi was pregnant from what Qiao Yunbai and Qiao Baili said.
Such a big man, his eyes revealed an envy that was hard to conceal.
"Qingxiao is so lucky." Tang Yuanchao sighed.
Qiao Baili couldn't help laughing, and then thanked him solemnly.
"Thank you, Tang Yuanchao, for getting me the home visit leave." Qiao Baili was extremely grateful.
She knew that Qiao Yunsong really wanted to go home to visit after he came back, but she was afraid of causing trouble to others, so she thought about it, but she was too embarrassed to ask the teacher for leave.
After all, there are a lot of things going on in school recently, and the teachers are eager to live in the office.
It was Tang Yuanchao who took her directly to see the principal, and used both reason and emotion to help her get these three days of home visit leave.
Tang Yuanchao possesses the courage and confidence that Qiao Baili lacks. It was clearly something she wanted to do, but she wanted Tang Yuanchao to fight for her. For a moment, Qiao Baili looked down on herself for being useless.
But it was Tang Yuanchao who let Qiao Baili know that taking the first step was not as difficult as she imagined.
After returning home and seeing Qiao Yunsong's joy and the smile on her mother's face after the family was reunited, Qiao Baili thought that the emotional difficulty of taking the first step was nothing.
Because it's worth it.
This moment of homecoming is so worth it.
