Chapter 17
In the early morning, the bell rang loudly in the dormitory. Qi Jiang was packing his schoolbag and was about to go out to find a place to endorse. Bai Miaomiao rolled up the quilt tightly with a "huh" and yelled at the top of his voice in a daze, "Phone..."
Qi Jiang hurried to the desk and picked up the receiver, the ringing finally stopped.
The caller was his long-lost parents.Qi Jiang pulled the phone line all the way to the balcony, closed the door, and crouched by the wall with the landline in his arms, then whispered into the receiver: "Dad, Mom."
The person on the receiver seemed to be more cautious than him, "Jiang'er, did the phone call disturb your study?"
Qi Jiangming knew that the other party couldn't see him, but he still shook his head desperately, "No, no."
"How is your study? How are you getting along with your classmates? Your Uncle Feng Lin gave us this number. Is it your dormitory number?"
Qi Jiang said: "It's all good and all good—the classmates in school are very kind to me, and Uncle Feng is also very kind to me."
"In this way, I am relieved... Is the living expenses enough? If there is something you want to buy, don't be too frugal. If you don't have money, tell us that we don't need this money--are you in good health?"
Qi Jiang pinched the receiver, feeling his nose sore. He cleared his throat, took a deep breath, and said, "Everything is really fine, don't worry! I can take good care of myself by myself!"
"That's good..." Zhang Hongxiang choked up, and Liu Xiao answered the phone.
"Jiang'er, when is your school holiday? Your mother misses you. She couldn't sleep the night before. She wonders if you have dressed well..."
There were a few pushes and shoves from the receiver, and a soft voice of "what do you say to the child".
"Jiang'er, don't listen to your dad's nonsense, you should study hard over there, get a household registration in the future, and our family will be reunited, and mother will be satisfied."
Qi Jiang said softly: "Yes."
In the past few days, the temperature difference between day and night is large, and in addition to being in the mountains, it is foggy in the morning, and the chill soaks into the bones.Qi Jiang ran to the playground to read in the morning, and returned to the house covered in dew, almost bringing the cold inside.
Bai Miaomiao just got up from the bed. He was afraid of the cold, so he rubbed his eyes and shivered, "Have you gone to the North Pole?"
Qi Jiang pointed to the door and said, "No, I went to the small playground."
Bai Miaomiao was drowsy, got out of bed with an "oh", and went to wash in a daze.It will be a while before the library opens this weekend.The lower grades have holidays on Saturdays and Sundays, and some exam classes in the upper grades have to be remedial.
Although Qi Jiang doesn't take tutoring, he still gets up and down as usual. They don't require much sleep time, and they are not afraid of heat or cold. On a certain level, they are very suitable for burning ointment, digging walls and stealing light. .
He stuffed a steamed bun into his bag. Today, there was a class that was teaching the test papers. It was a set that Qi Jiang followed suit.
"Hey," Qi Jiang filled the bag with water and turned to look at Bai Miaomiao, "Where's Li Li?"
Bai Miaomiao yawned and whimpered, "He won't come to play today, Chen Xiang isn't here..."
"Really." Qi Jiang was thoughtful.
"If you see Jin Liufang later, don't mention Li Li, understand?" Bai Miaomiao said.
"Oh." Qi Jiang nodded.
He thought for a while, "Is that potted flower agarwood?"
Bai Miaomiao was patting her face with toner, "Yes."
"Chen Xiang... Is she someone from Jinliufang?"
"Actually, our genealogy is very messy here. If I insist, they are probably sisters." Bai Miaomiao pondered for a while, "Jin Liufang claims to be his brother, so Chen Xiang is probably his sister."
What is roughly, Qi Jiang doesn't understand.Their goblins, especially the plant goblins, their family relationship and blood relationship will not be maintained by the same physical commonality as human beings, but just like Zhang Hongxiang and Liu Xiao, they are his parents, not probably this kind of uncertainty statement.It has been from day one.
"Chen Xiang...is there something wrong with her spiritual power?"
"Ask Jin Liufang yourself about this - no, you better not ask. Chen Xiang is Jin Liufang's Nilin, whoever touches it will be unlucky, look at Li Li, when they were young, they climbed the wall and crossed the river together, and if they turned their faces, they would turn their faces .”
"So you all know each other?"
Bai Miaomiao sneered at him, "Did you see it now?"
He patted his face and went inside to change clothes. "Li Li and Jin Liufang and I were both young and grew up together..."
"Then why..."
"That idiot Li Li likes Jin Liufang's younger sister, and even claimed in front of the parents of both parties that she will pursue her all her life. She is so daring, can Jin Liufang let him go?" Bai Miaomiao stretched lazily.
Qi Jiang didn't quite understand, "Why? It should be a happy thing for someone to like his sister. Why is Jin Liufang unhappy?"
Bai Miaomiao bent down and tapped his forehead with his finger, "You are still young, you will understand some things later..." He counted his fingers, "It's been more than ten years, who knows why Li Li likes Chen Xiang so much .”
Qi Jiang thought to himself, he has only lived for more than ten years, and Li Li has liked Chen Xiang for more than ten years.Li Li must be very, very, very, very fond of that flower called Chenxiang.Even if it is just a silent flower.Jin Liufang must also...
"Oh." Qi Jiang said, he may not understand anything, but at this moment, he suddenly understood how precious that flower is to the few people he knows.
"The household registration in Jin Liufang's hand is for Chen Xiang..." Qi Jiang murmured.
"What?" Bai Miaomiao didn't hear clearly.
Qi Jiang shook his head, "Nothing."
Bai Miaomiao glanced back at him and said, "Aren't you going to miss class? You have to hurry, I heard the preparatory bell ringing."
Qi Jiang secretly thought something was wrong, grabbed his schoolbag and ran away quickly.
Qi Jiang sneaked in through the back door, and the teacher who was commenting above looked at him as if nothing had happened, and continued to talk about the topic without saying anything.
Qi Jiang spread out his test paper, and ticked off the correct answers to the multiple-choice questions on the blackboard.
"We talked about this question last week. Whoever makes a mistake will copy the wrong question set ten times."
Qi Jiang was ashamed, and remembered the formula wrong again.He flipped through the set of wrong questions, and drew two lines with a red pen under the formula.
He was struggling with the wrong questions, and Feng Lin over there called Xiao Xu who had been squatting all night in the laboratory for data early in the morning.
"Mr. Feng, are you here to investigate? I'm in the laboratory, I'm really there, and my junior is also there. If you don't believe me, I asked him to answer the phone..." Xiao Xu scratched his hair like a bird's nest, and sat on the corner of the wall. The dozing student woke up.
"No, I want you to go to the base tomorrow. Travel expenses will continue to be reimbursed."
Xiao Xu had question marks all over his head, "Are you going to the administrative office?"
"No - you still remember Qi Jiang?"
Xiao Xu replied: "Well, that eucalyptus spirit with abnormal spiritual power."
"...I underestimated the time of this meeting, it may take more than a week before I can go back... If I guess correctly, Qi Jiang's human form maintenance is almost at the limit, you go and see him, if there is anything unusual, Get him out of the base immediately."
