Obligations of the elderly

The palace father was sent to tidy up the room, that's right, it was the room where they met, tidying up the presents he showed off excitedly, it was easy to take pictures just now, but it is not so easy to get them all back, especially these gifts are very The big man, fortunately, the father of the palace seems to be quite strong. His user Anzaji and the user of the palace mother, Sheyou, are helping him. They are moving the presents into the kitchen one by one... Uh, there are many gifts here. It is edible, although it looks like it is waiting to be processed.

The palace mother was still sitting next to her two sons. Finally, she also took out something from the backpack behind her. Before Gong Si could stop her, the palace mother had already taken out the things.

It was only then that Gong Si realized that it was not the photo that Gong Fu took out before, but three books.

Smiling and looking at the eldest son, the palace mother signaled to Gongsi to take the book in her hand, and took the book as she wished, and opened it, Gongsi found that it was a set of children's books, or picture books. After taking a quick look at the content, it seems to be some kind of story book like fairy tales...

Gong Si looked at the palace mother because she didn't know.

"Our work is not as unreliable as your father makes it out to be, but it's not very high-end either. Our archaeological team's special research direction is actually old book restoration." The palace mother explained with a smile.

"Repairing old books?" Gong Si was taken aback for a while, as there was a second-hand bookstore in his house.

Nodding, the palace mother continued to explain: "There are many old books that have been handed down until now, and they are all orphaned copies. Don't mention the missing words and missing pages. If no one repairs them, these stories will be completely unknown. Our team leader is studying ancient books. Yes, he specially took the archaeological team to the places described in these books, and delved a little bit to restore the missing content."

"The missing content?" Gong Si couldn't imagine it, and it seemed nothing to him.

"For example, in these picture books, what kind of clothes did the people wear at that time? What traditional patterns were painted on the clothes? Even the colors dyed by special dyes on their clothes... These contents are either missing keywords or missing Once we have found the pattern, what we have to do is go to the place described in the book, find out as much as possible of these things, then restore them, and finally republish them." Gong Mu said.

After imagining the workload, when he looked at the picture book in his hand again, Gong Si's face became more serious.

"Other books with more research value have already been repaired. We mainly repair folklore that others don't care about. Although there are often problems with funds, everyone is very happy."

"Whether these legends are fairy tales or not, many of them were written by people with abilities! Some of them are really interesting, such as this one." Gong Mu said, and opened a book for Gong Si to read: "This is a tool. He wrote a travel note, and he introduced the various places he has been to. Among them, he also mentioned a very strange world!"

"In that world, there are no users and tools, but there are ordinary people and tool spirits."

"He said that he lived in that world as a tool spirit for a long time. Although he can communicate with the people who use him, but because he can't transform into a real human form, he feels that kind of life is a bit lonely..."

The palace mother also told him a story, and then she took out a group photo from her backpack. On it were the palace father and palace mother, their users, and many old men and ladies...

"By the way, this is a group photo of all members of our archaeological team."

While Gongsi and Xiliu looked at the photos, she took another photo out of her backpack and took a picture. What fell out of it was a stack of books. Gongsi always felt vaguely familiar, as if she When I was a child, I read similar ones in my old bookstore...

"Do you have an impression? This is a book from our second-hand bookstore. You read it when you were a child, and then told Jung that there are many missing words and pages in it, and you can't understand it. I really want to know what those missing things represent..." Palace mother Continue talking to him, and then unfold the book for him to read: "Now, your father has made up for you."

Seeing her son flipping through the old books in a daze, the palace mother smiled: "It's mainly because of your father, I just helped a little by the side, he is the most impatient to read books, and the things from the archaeological team were too lazy to help. Just think of yourself as a kitchen knife, or that Jung brought these books back. He started to study the repair methods of old books seriously in order to repair them for you. These books are not on the repair list of the archaeological team, so he will get them first by himself. After meeting, I went to ask other people. After so many years, I finally made up for it. I told him that this is the best gift, but he just felt that the previous ones were better, and these are not available..."

Flipping through the old children's book in his hand, Gong Si raised his head: "I accept the gift."

There was a smile on the corner of her mouth, the palace mother patted Aji's little butt, and turned around: "I will also help, if I haven't come back for so long, Anzaji must want to show you a hand in the kitchen, I can't lose give them."

She bent her elbow to signal her upper arm muscles, and the palace mother also left.

This morning, the Xiliu family ate breakfast on the big lawn in front of the white house where they lived. Xie Kai directed the waiters to set up the long table with thick tablecloths, exquisite table flags and placemats Well, all kinds of decorations are exquisitely embellished, and then the delicacies made by Anzaji and the palace father are put on the table like water, and the photographer and the palace mother are responsible for the decoration. The food made by Anzaji is really delicious. After so many years of archaeological team The experience has made her cooking more down-to-earth: not only looks delicious, but also full, and the most important thing is that the food is served quickly!In addition, they brought back a lot of food, except for the leftovers for Qiu Xia and the others, they made breakfast and entertained nearly 100 people from Xiliu's family!

All the waiters and bodyguards came over, and everyone ate the delicious food prepared by the palace father and palace mother. Everyone came to eat according to the batch, and everyone was very satisfied.

"This is a school cafeteria business model to provide Epiloka-style meals." Eating a small snack with a knife and fork, Xiliu said to the palace.

The Epilo feast is the most exquisite feast nowadays, and it is famous for its exquisiteness and magnificence.

Gong Si was not as particular about him, he threw the dim sum into his mouth in one gulp, he chewed and swallowed it, and said: "It tastes pretty good."

"It's quite good, your father and the others are good at crafting." Xiliu laughed.

Standing at the table, Gong Si watched the palace father holding a big pot and warmly greeted the bodyguards for another plate of soup, and saw his mother serving the newly made dim sum to Xie Kai and the others, he thought for a while and said: "If it's not reliable, it's not reliable. Anyway, after so many years, I'm used to it."

Neither Gongsi nor Xiliu went to class that day, but accompanied them for a stroll around Xiliu's house, and then took Aji out to Nishijiugong City for a stroll. Regarding the matter of his son skipping class to accompany him, Gongfu The palace mother has no opinion.Probably in their eyes, the son is such a reliable person, no matter how he chooses, it is the right choice. Of course, even if the son is not a reliable person, they still think so.

In the afternoon, autumn and summer and winter and spring also came back.

Facing her parents, whom she hasn't seen since she was three years old, Qiu Xia's attitude is polite, she always stands by her elder brother's side, and when the palace father hugs him and cries, he will even pass handkerchiefs, but there are no more; as for Dong Chun, This one was sent here after weaning, and it was not even in his memory, but he was a cheerful little boy, standing among his brothers for a long time, and finally poked his father with his little finger, and then poked his mother. After a while, he turned his head and smiled at his brothers: "It's real mom and dad, so it's how mom and dad feel when they touch it!"

The palace father cried even harder.

"Since they are all here, let them clean up the mess by themselves." Regarding this, Gong Si didn't mean to help at all, and didn't even mean to say a good word to his parents.

He just picked up the schoolbags brought back by his two younger brothers. As usual, there were no dirty clothes or socks in the autumn and summer schoolbags. There was a bag full of chocolate biscuits, which were all stuffed to him by the female classmate who admired him. He brought them back as usual. The brothers eat; while the autumn and winter schoolbags are full of smelly clothes, and even stuffed with a pair of smelly sneakers!No wonder his schoolbag is not enough than Qiuxia, he can carry it too much!

Fortunately, there are no smelly socks in it. He is a little older now, and the palace has not allowed him to bring socks back. He washes them all at school. When he grows older, he has to wash his clothes and shoes by himself.

Qiu Xia came over not long after, and wanted to help Gong Si wash things together, but was rejected by Gong Si, Gong Si asked him to take a break, and not long after, Dong Chun ran over again, and began to tell him that he was in football. The team's performance this week, after hearing all about football, Gong Si also sent him to take a bath.

He just wants Qiu Xia and Dong Chun to do what they should do and what they want to do step by step. After a while, the palace father and palace mother can't touch anyone, watching their parents timidly follow Qiu Xia Dongchun away , Gong Si hugged Dongchun's dirty clothes, and suddenly sighed——

"Fortunately, they left Qiu Xia Dong Chun Aji to me."

"?" Xiliu didn't know, so he looked at him.

Looking at the backs of his parents and younger brothers, Gong Si raised his eyebrows and said: "If the five of them came to me together now, I might not be able to bear it."

He said it simply, but Xiliu immediately understood what he meant.

"Well, anyway, you have a lot of people." Xiliu said with a smile.

"Well, we have a lot of people anyway." Nodding, Gong Si shrugged and continued working.

The next thing was the parents' meeting. The father of the palace went to the parents' meeting in the autumn and summer, and the mother went to the parents' meeting in the winter and spring. After the meeting, the two of them came to the parents' meeting in the palace.

This is a parent meeting held together for the whole grade, and they were also selected as parents of outstanding student representatives!Although his grades are not in the top three in the grade, Gongsi's academic performance is really excellent. In addition, he is a well-known poet in the college's poetry magazine, and now he is promoted to the editor-in-chief. All the students had a very good impression of him, which made him one of the few students selected as a representative.

However, this result was announced at the parent meeting, and the palace father and palace mother became the parents of outstanding student representatives, and they had to go up to speak!

This is unexpected——

Seeing the palace father standing up in a daze amidst the applause of the crowd, and being pushed forward by his mother, Gong Si felt very calm in his heart. He would do anything such a palace father would do on stage. Be mentally prepared, just come.

When the palace father woke up, he was already standing on the speech stage, surrounded by the dean of Ji Ling College, other school leaders and teachers, and the audience was crowded with students and their parents. He had just woken up. When I came here, I felt a little dizzy again.

"I, what do I want to talk about here?" He cautiously asked the host next to him.

Holding back his laughter, the host patiently said to him: "Tell me about how you educate the students in Gongsi, so that other parents and students can learn from it."

The palace father was stunned. Fortunately, he didn't stay in a daze for a long time. Before the others felt something was wrong, he cleared his throat and finally spoke:

"I was not a good student since I was a child. I never had the opportunity to stand in such a place when I was a student. Now I am here for the first time in my life, thanks to my son."

"Just now the hostess asked me to introduce how I educated Gong Si, but I'm sorry, I can't answer this question, because in the days when we became father and son, it was not I who educated Ah Si, but Ah Si. He educated me."

"Probably because I'm really not a reliable parent, so Ah Si has been a reliable child since he was a child. He always takes out a book from somewhere, and then he will definitely put it there. As long as one thing is done, it will be I will never give up halfway, every time I want to mess around, every time I want to give up something, Ah Si will look at me, he didn't say anything, but looked at those jet black With his big eyes, I gave up the idea of ​​giving up. Later, after he left me, I always felt that he was still by my side. Whenever I wanted to start or end something, my mind always Those big black eyes will emerge..."

Gong Fu talked about Gong Si's childhood.

Listening to him, Gong Si narrowed his eyes slightly: So when he was young, did they do so many things together?He doesn't even remember.

However, the father of the palace remembered everything, clearly remembering every detail, vividly, as if it happened yesterday.

Perhaps the words of the palace father resonated with the parents of the parents in the audience, especially when he was talking about the child's childhood. Any child is always cute when he is young. He has a good voice. Although the narration is not organized, it is full of emotion , the parents in the audience were gradually brought back to the children's childhood by him, and everyone's eyes softened, as if they had returned to the children's childhood and when they were young...

When the palace father finally finished his speech, the people in the audience responded with thunderous applause.

This impromptu speech was quite successful. It was so successful that many of the children who originally wanted to spank stopped. At the end of the parent meeting, many people came to say goodbye to the father and son. After the parents said their goodbyes, they were the last to leave.

Gongsi and Xiliu had already stood up, but Gongfu was still sitting there with his head bowed.

With a familiar look, Gong Si thought he was crying again, but when he walked over, he saw Gong Fu raised his head and smiled at him.

"?" Gong Si looked at him puzzled.

"I will stop crying in the future. I just remembered that Ah Si would not cry when he was a child, and he would get up by himself when he fell. Ah Si said, boys must be strong, and I have to continue to learn from Ah Si."

Seeing such a father, Gong Si opened his mouth, sighed, and stretched out his hand towards his father. When the hand that was bigger than himself grasped his, he pulled his father up with force.

The weekend is the end of the parents' meeting. Gongsi and his younger brothers all returned home, spending the weekend happily with their parents and their users.

Today's student textbooks are much more difficult than before, and the palace father and palace mother soon found that they could no longer even tutor the winter and spring studies, and could not help their sons with their studies, so they had to switch to other: for example, Fishing with Qiu Xia → When they didn’t catch a single fish, Qiu Xia had already caught a bucket full; Playing football with Dong Chun → Gongfu and Gongmu soon got tired and fell down, and Gongfu still had food on his head A ball for Dongchun.

There is no way, they can only start in places where they can but the children can't → ride a motorcycle.

"Hey! Qiu Xia and Dong Chun are not old enough to ride motorcycles yet!" The eldest brother Gong Si immediately reminded: "Your motorcycles are very dangerous at first glance. I heard that they can catch up with aircraft?"

"What? Can you catch up to the aircraft?" Dongchun's eyes lit up.

Seeing his younger brother like this, Gong Si knew that it would be difficult to stop them. He had no choice but to supervise his parents riding a motorcycle with Dong Chun and Qiu Xia flying back and forth in the big yard of Xiliu's house. Children can't resist this sense of speed, and Qiu Xia couldn't help but look at his brother, expressing that he wanted to try it out.

Finally, both Gong Si and Qiu Xia learned to ride a motorcycle.

"I will leave my motorcycle to Ah Si this time, because Ah Si is already dead, and we will give another one to Qiu Xia in autumn and summer." The father of the palace smiled and said, "Boy, at this age, you should have own car."

He didn't say anything, but he was a little satisfied with the gift in his heart, and Gong Si didn't refuse.

"Can I have a motorcycle when I'm here?" Dongchun looked at his parents with wide eyes.

"Yes, yes, you all have them." The palace father bent down and patted his head with a smile.

"Dingzhou looks a bit like a father. Looking at them, I want to have a baby." Standing far away, Anzaji said to the side with his hands in his pockets.

Anzaji looked at him with glazed eyes, and said for a while, "Then I'm the only one left alone, hahaha!"

Photo: ...

Just like that, after spending a little more than four days together, the Gong family father and son parted again.

"We're planning to go back to Lengshui Town. In fact, we found the kindling this time. Your uncle asked us to give you a drop, and then put the rest in the stove at home. He will deal with it later when he has time to go back. .” said the palace father.

"Fire?" Gong Si subconsciously looked at the whistle on his chest, he hadn't had time to tell his uncle about getting the fire from Qizhou!

"Have you got the fire seed from uncle? Do you want to be a swordsmith in the future?" Palace Father looked at Gong Si gently and said.

Nodding, Gong Si said without hesitation, "I think the profession of knife crafting is good, and I will consider this kind of major when I go to university in the future."

"That's good, that's good. Someone has finally passed on our family profession. I think it's absolutely fine for you. You are very similar to your uncle!" For the palace father, he is very similar to his elder brother. highest praise.

"I will work hard." Gong Si knew that there was still a big difference between himself and his uncle.

"Just take your time." The palace father said, and he also took out a whistle-like thing from his backpack: "I don't know how to divide, and my ability is not high, so you can take it yourself, and give it to your uncle in another Shenglong." In the firearm."

Nodding his head, Gong Si whistled next, put the whistle away, and continued to listen to his parents.

However, the palace father and the palace mother had nothing to explain, they hugged Dongchun and Aji again, said a few words to Qiuxia, waved their hands, and the four rode the remaining three motorcycles, and then they drove away.

Coming and going like the wind probably refers to palace fathers and palace mothers.

As if something happened, but also as if nothing happened.

After sending them away, Gong Si immediately took the younger brothers back.The precious weekend is coming to an end. Those who should go to school tomorrow will go to school, and those who should be thanked will continue to play. The life of the Gong family brothers is still going on.

The life in the third year of high school is not much different from before. The schoolwork is a little nervous, but it is okay for Gongsi. He has already filled out the university application, which is the smelting major of Jizhou University. This is the best university in Jizhou. ... is a less popular major, in view of this, Gong Si feels that he is quite sure.

Star Meteor applied to Jizhou University's most popular medical school, Nilu applied to Folklore College, and Marlon Emin applied to the Department of Physical Education. In a word, everyone in class F applied to a university.

With a clear goal, the friends in class F began to study hard. When they "keep their ears off the outside world and only read professional books", Ji Zhou was not at peace.

First, they lost to other continents in some kind of intercontinental competition, which is actually nothing, but in this competition, the contestant in Jizhou was seriously injured, and died not long after returning. Afterwards, the newspapers reported it widely, and they found out that the dead It is a ruler of Jizhou, and also the ruler of the right age, not only Jizhou, but all continents are a bit superstitious in this regard, as a favored person of rich energy-the ruler or super-grade device itself represents a similar Things like "National Luck" probably represent the luck of the entire continent. When he died, there were many fortune tellers who said that Jizhou was going to have an accident. I don't know if these fortune tellers are really clever. , Ji Zhou really started to have accidents one after another.

Jizhou is a continent with an unusually large number of volcanoes. The dormant volcanoes erupted several times in a row, and they happened in a relatively remote place. There were no casualties, but even so, Gong Si was a little worried. Lengshui Town is a volcano town.

He also called his parents, and it was rare for the parents to answer the phone right away this time.

"It's okay, it's fine, we've already set the fire, and we're going to leave the day after tomorrow." Nagging, the palace father said a lot about the neighbors.

After listening patiently, Gong Si finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, that night, the news suddenly came out - the volcano in Donghuo City became active again!The volcano below erupted on a large scale, and Lengshui Town was within the affected area!
