fourth rebirth

"Yiqing, be careful. Be careful when sailing for thousands of years. The one on the top already has some opinions on the current non-violent non-cooperation." I haven't heard it for many years, and the old principal's voice is also old. Weakness and weakness.Back then, the old man who stood at the school gate with a smile and greeted his classmates was really old.

"Teacher, don't worry," Chi Yiqing got up and poured himself a cup of tea while answering the phone. He has been busy all morning, with a lot of things and documents. He is so tired that he is like a spinning top. He still uses this to answer the phone Kung fu can take a short break.

"He is dissatisfied with him, and others may not be satisfied with him. Besides, don't forget, on the surface, he is a loyal minister who has always stood by his side and devoted himself to his death." He played with the clear and clean small porcelain cup in his hand , pulled out a mocking smile.

"His IQ makes me anxious, but at most it's so bad that he wants to find a top position and pull it down secretly without showing it. If he is really stupid, he should Stay at the zoo and eat bananas instead of wearing clothes."

However, now, compared to the real gorilla, he is only a fig leaf.

To give him such an order to deal with the Xia family and the Guan family?

Do you really think that you sat in that position by virtue of your ability?Or, it was because he performed so well that he thought Chi Yiqing was really his tool?

Even if he is a knife, he will definitely not be able to hold a knife.

As for looking for a replacement, hehe, I don't even look at what else his loyal in-law has in his mind other than a pile of yellow waste, he is really in a hurry to reincarnate.

Chi Yiqing's smile became more mocking.

I don't know what kind of excitement will be there when the next term is changed.

"Hey, I hope." There was still obvious worry in the old principal's tone. Although logically speaking, Chi Yiqing was right, but in this world, how can everything be logical come?

Don't be afraid of [-], just in case. As we get older and have many things to do, we always worry about these unpredictable accidents.

"You are too cautious," Chi Yiqing smiled nonchalantly, and then changed the subject, "By the way, teacher, your grandson has done very well in the border area in the past two years, and just handed in a bunch of I flipped through the study report, and almost all of them mentioned his name."

"It's still far away." Referring to his little grandson, the old headmaster smiled until his beard turned up, and he even pretended to be modest, "That kid still lacks experience, if you have time to help him, then that's right." Qi has worked so hard to teach for so many years."

"That's good, that kid is also a nephew, as long as the time comes, your hometown doesn't think it's too lenient." Chi Yiqing said calmly.The old headmaster's heart shrank suddenly, he tentatively opened his mouth,

"Why, do you want to go to the west too?"

"Hehe, I'm planning to go for a stroll. I heard that the scenery on the west side is good. Last time, the little nephew sent me some photos. I envied Rourou. She always likes this kind of paradise-like place. But..." Chi Yiqing prolonged the tune on purpose, which made the old headmaster feel sad.

"If you like it after shopping, maybe you will settle there."

"That place doesn't welcome foreigners very much." The old principal began to make some calculations in his heart.It is good for Chi Yiqing to go, at least his grandson is not fighting alone.But, in the same way, with Chi Yiqing's arrogant and decisive character, the old headmaster was very worried that he would conflict with those there.

"Do you need them to welcome you?" Chi Yiqing asked back.

It is enough for them to obey, as for their thoughts... and, what to do.

The old headmaster naturally understood what Chi Yiqing hadn't said, but...

"Yiqing, don't forget that water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it."

"Teacher, you are too high-minded," Chi Yiqing flipped through the documents on the table casually, "That's something that needs to be considered by the higher-ups. Now, no, in the future, it's just a knife, a sharp blade that can charge into battle. .A knife, don’t need to think so much.”

"... Zhe Zhe and Chi Ran have made arrangements?" The old headmaster poured himself a big mouthful of strong tea, bitter in his thick mouth.

"They will have a good life." When talking about his son and daughter, Chi Yiqing softened unconsciously.

"Where's Qiao Rou?"

"She'll stay with you."

"Yiqing, I remember when I was a child, I read the composition: the ideal. At that time, the ideal written was to be an official, to be a high-ranking official, and then "leading the land and the world is full of happiness, and the river is clear and the sea is poor." At that time, it was not yet I know how to write these words, but I always listened to old man Chi and memorized them, and even asked in pinyin while holding a small notebook, "

Thinking of that delicate and cute child with a stubborn and arrogant face that day, the corners of the old headmaster's mouth curled up.

At that time, it was the trough of his life, his ideas were not accepted, his ideas were not appreciated, watching the upstarts and the old aristocratic families fighting for life and death, watching the good sons and daughters earn their lives from foreign enemies but fell into internal friction, his heart was broken. It's all cold.

Fighting for power, intrigue, are those positions really so tempting?

He didn't understand it in the past, and he still doesn't understand it now.

Under such circumstances, when he met that child, looking at the child's black and white, pure and clean eyes, he suddenly remembered a sentence, a strong youth makes a country strong.Although he is a little younger, he can still be considered a reserve boy.

We still have a future, don't we?

"Do you still remember?" The old headmaster was asking about that matter, and he was also asking about that.

Remember the ideals you once had?In that clean and pure white age, the oaths that were sworn loudly and those colorful dreams.

"...Never forget it." Chi Yiqing's voice was a little hoarse, "Never, never."

Only then will you realize that he is just a man who is not yet 40, still holding ideals, and has great ambitions, not the old fritter who speaks an official accent, smiles formulaically, and has been in the officialdom for more than ten years.

"But it can't be done, right?" The old headmaster said very firmly, his face was calm. At this time, he was not the old kid who laughed all day long, but the one who had gone through several turbulences but remained steadfast. evergreen tree.

"The temperament, the means, are too fierce and decisive. He can be a hero but he can't be a minister."

Even, I never forgot this wish.However, his arrogance is doomed to failure.He is too far away from those, and he can't bend down. What he lacks is the spirit of sacrificing himself for the sake of the ordinary. He can't do it, really can't do it.

"I know." Chi Yiqing's face was very calm. After so long, he had already figured it out.

"So," the old headmaster sighed, "Go home, you should also know about Yiyuan's situation, no matter what it is for, he needs and needs him."

"...Let's think about it again."

"Yiqing, remember, that is our home after all." The old headmaster spoke slowly, but his tone was firm and irrefutable.

"……Um."

"Chi Zhe, what are you doing?" With a big stretch, Chi Ran dragged his slippers and stomped into the living room, and saw Chi Zhe groping around on the coffee table and cabinet at a glance.She got up late today, and she didn't change her clothes until almost 1 o'clock. Fortunately, Qiao Rou didn't, otherwise she couldn't.

"Oh, it's nothing." Chi Zhe jumped down as if nothing had happened, and patted the dust on his hands, "By the way, sister, I still remember the first one I used. Where did you put that camera? I clearly remember that my mother put it on the cabinet in the living room of."

"It's about being loved to death, and refusing to let go when you go swimming, and then being pushed into the sea by several children together with the machine?" Chi Ran had a deep impression of that incident, before being pushed down , Chi Zhe also filmed the scene of their family having fun, but when it entered the sea water, the camera was scrapped, and the content inside was naturally gone. Chi Zhe was still sad for a while.

"Isn't there?"

"No." Chi Zhe shook his head. There really wasn't any. When Qiao Rou remodeled the living room, she put things in the utility room. There were countless broken cameras, new cameras, cameras and the like. There are ten.

Some were thrown away, some were kept, I'm afraid Qiao Rou couldn't remember clearly.

"Then wait for mom to come back and ask." Chi Ran yawned and skipped the topic, "By the way, is there anything to eat? I'm hungry."

"There are still some in the kitchen, do you need help warming them up?"

"Thank you then." Chi Ran was not polite, and sat on the sofa waiting for his brother's loving breakfast.Turn on the TV at random, and the movie channel plays an old cartoon from a long time ago: mindless and unhappy.

Chi Ran took a can of milk from the tea table, inserted a straw, and laughed while watching.Although she has reached the age of the girl Huaichun, she still likes animation, likes and loves animation like a young child.

Chi Zhe smiled, turned and went into the kitchen.

Behind him was Chi Ran, who was laughing loudly, inadvertently glanced at the eyes on the bookcase.

Even things that she remembered, would Chi Zhe, who has never forgotten since childhood, not remember?

Chi Ran looked at the short and thoughtless guy on TV, and smiled brighter and brighter.

Afternoon, 17:00

Qiao Rou arrived home on time.With fresh vegetables and meat in her hands, she walked briskly into the kitchen with a smile.She wants to cook a good meal for her kids.

17:10

Chi Ran received a courier. She bought some things online yesterday. The courier in the east is always very fast. The things in the same city were delivered within a day.

The seller sent several Chinese knots, which were flamboyant and dazzling red, mixed with a few reflective golden ones, and two small fishes with rough workmanship but with a special flavor were strung at the tails.

After satisfying Chi Ran's appetite, she was so happy that she simply hung one or two of these in the living room and her own room.

There are too many hanging, but one is missing for some reason, Chi Ran doesn't care about it, and continues to spread the gorgeous red happily.

In an unseen corner, a Chinese knot lay quietly on the top of the bookcase, and next to it was a black cylinder as thick as a little finger.

Pinhole camera.

With the means of Chi Zhe and Guan Qixian, those who require high resolution can only be this at least.

The small wooden fish formed in China are faintly reflective.

A long time ago, Chi Ran slowly took over several companies under the Qiao Family Group.

Entertainment.
