Rebirth: Starting from a Trainee Teacher

Chapter 661 God's Gift

It was almost time for dinner, so Zhou Jing took Gu Jia and the children to his third uncle's house.

Arriving at his third uncle's house, Zhou Jing went to pay the share money first. The person in charge of registering the share money was Zhou Guozhong. When Zhou Guozhong paid for himself and the old man, he also paid for Zhou Jing. Zhou Jing did not pay. Gu Jia was pulled to a corner by Zhou Xing's wife and Zhou Wei's fiancée who had just arrived in the afternoon to chat, and Zhou Jing went for a walk somewhere else.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou."

The person who recognized Zhou Jing greeted him and Zhou Jing nodded in response.

"I'm planning to buy an ideal mobile phone. Can you recommend one, Mr. Zhou?"

A girl who looked quite cheerful said.

"What's the budget?"

Zhou Jing smiled and said.

"It's about 3,000 yuan, and I want to buy a better smart speaker."

"Choose ideal 1s after the college entrance examination."

After the college entrance examination, the price of Ideal 1s will be reduced by 2649 yuan. During the event, you can get a coupon to offset 1 yuan for purchases over 2799 yuan, which means you can get it for . With a budget of yuan, you can still have more than yuan left, which is just enough to buy an Ideal high-end smart speaker. The price of Ideal s was launched in early April at . After more than two months, the price has dropped by yuan without the coupon, which is not a big drop.

"How much will the ideal 1s drop after the college entrance examination?"

The girl said curiously.

"The total discount for the price reduction and promotion is 150 yuan."

Zhou Jing didn't keep anyone in suspense and spoke bluntly.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou. I will buy Ideal 1s after the college entrance examination."

The girl was originally planning to buy Ideal 1s. She fell in love with the rose gold version of Ideal 1s at first sight. In order to buy Ideal 1s, she started saving money in April and went to great lengths to ask for money to please her family.

"What do you think of Samsung phones, Mr. Zhou?"

A spirited young man said.

"good."

Zhou Jing didn't want to deal with this "clever"

"Samsung's design is too ugly. Ideal Phone is no worse than Samsung in both appearance and usability."

"The 1s released by Ideal last month really dazzled me, but it was a little expensive, so I bought the Changxiang 1s. The Changxiang 1s is also very easy to use. For less than yuan, I can play games like Run and Rhythm Master just like other brands of yuan phones."

"Mr. Zhou's other company originally made games, so he must be better at this."

“Indeed, the same game played on other phones is obviously not as smooth as on the ideal phone.”

Someone next to him spoke for Ideal Mobile.

Several boys found a common topic of games and talked about Call of Duty. They all sounded like they were very good at it. Adults were prejudiced against online games, so Zhou Jing stayed away from them.

The wedding ceremony of the bride and groom has been completed, and the main meal is about to begin at 3:30. There are still more than ten minutes before the meal time, so the first round of guests are arranged in advance. The third uncle's family has arranged a table in the house specifically for Zhou Jing's family. In addition to Zhou Jing, Gu Jia and the children, there are also the old man and the old lady, Zhou Guozhong and Wu Suqin, Zhou Wei's mother and fiancée, etc., all of whom are direct descendants of Zhou Jing in the family. Zhou Wei is also a waiter.

There were many people eating, so Zhou Jing was holding his child while eating, so the child didn't need to take up an extra seat.

"You drink this bottle."

Uncle San brought the table Zhou Jing had given him during the Chinese New Year to Zhou Jing's table, wanting to take away the Xifeng that was given to him during the wedding.

"No, there aren't many people drinking, so this will do."

Zhou Jing did not ask for special treatment in such occasions. He poured Xifeng for the man and asked his uncle to clear the table.

"I didn't expect that Uncle San still had such good wine hidden."

Zhou Xing, who was serving drinks, melon seeds and candies on a plate, said in surprise.

"It was given to me by Jing during the Chinese New Year."

Uncle San tells the truth.

Zhou Xing was not surprised. When he went to visit the graves of the deceased, he would pass by Zhou Jing's family. He had seen that the wine bottles beside Zhou Jing's ancestral graves were either Taizi or Wuliangye. The wine poured at the graves was something that ordinary living people could not afford.

"Do you want it, kid?"

Zhou Xing handed Zhou Zhou a can of herbal tea and a bag of wedding candy.

The little girl didn't answer it, but looked up at Zhou Jing.

"If uncle gives it to you, take it and say thank you uncle."

"Thank you uncle."

Only after getting Zhou Jing's permission did the girl take the things.

"The baby is really sensible." Zhou Wei's fiancée said to Gu Jia: "What is the child's full name?"

"Zhou Muyu, Mu of envy, Yu of fish."

"."

"Here's a toast, brother. I'll drink as you like."

The other table in the room was occupied by the bride. As soon as the dishes were served, the bride's younger brother He Teng raised a glass of wine to toast Zhou Jing.

Since he doesn’t have to drive today, Zhou Jing will have a drink too.

"How is this guy doing in the company?"

Wu Suqin said after He Teng toasted and walked away.

"Not bad, you are diligent and quick-witted, and you are helping Haohao."

"Another toast to my brother and sister-in-law."

When the bride and groom were toasting, the people from the bride's family toasted Zhou Jing's table next. The bride was responsible for pouring the wine and the groom toasted. Judging from the groom's expression, he should drink the real wine. The bride and groom were also honest people, so they toasted everyone at the table with a glass. The bride and groom toasted Zhou Jing alone, and the bride also raised a glass when toasting Zhou Jing.

"One glass of wine will grant the bride one wish, and see how much the groom can drink."

Zhou Jing knew that the bride wanted to transfer from a school in Qing County to a school in Yushi City, and she must be waiting to ask for it after the marriage. As a smart woman, it was inevitable for him to help. Zhou Jing simply spoke out so that the bride would not be embarrassed to ask.

"Thank you so much, brother. One is enough. Zhou Bo and I will drink first to show our respect."

The bride's smile became even brighter, and she and the groom raised their glasses and drank first.

After the banquet in the afternoon, Zhou Jing set out on the road back to BJ on the next day, May 3rd.

This May may be Zhou Jing's last peaceful month. In Zhou Jing's nervous mood as he was waiting to "survive the tribulation", May passed quickly and peacefully. Before the end of May, Zhou Jing went back to Yulin City again and spent two peaceful days with Yang Wenwen. He also celebrated Children's Day with Yang Xin in advance, thus ending the tense and dull May.

The second day after returning to BJ from Yulin was Children's Day, so of course Zhou Jing had to celebrate the holiday with his daughter.

On June 1st, Zhou Jing and Gu Jia did not plan to go to the company, and both stayed at home with their children.

In the morning, as usual, Zhou Jing and Gu Jia woke up to their child's wake-up call. Their daughter was like the sun to them. Every morning when they heard their child's call, they knew it was dawn. When they opened their eyes and saw their child's cute face, the drowsiness of just waking up was swept away.

"Today is Children's Day, which is a holiday specially celebrated for children. Does Zhou Zhou want to celebrate Children's Day?"

Zhou Jing hugged the little girl who squeezed between him and Gu Jia and kissed her and said.

"Yeah~ Mom and Dad~"

The little girl didn't know what Children's Day was, and she made some babbling sounds on Zhou Jing's face.

"How do you want your parents to spend the holidays with you?"

Gu Jia said as she combed her daughter's messy hair with her fingers.

"Momnn~Momnn~"

The girl realized that her stomach was rumbling, and she let go of Zhou Jing and skillfully got into Gu Jia's pajamas that had been rolled up to her waist.

"Whose two and a half year old child still eats his mother's milk?"

Gu Jia patted the child gently on the back. The child was born on the tenth day of the first lunar month last year and is now sixteen months old.

"Our Zhou Zhou is still a baby, why can't he eat it, right?"

Zhou Jing said as he looked at the little girl who was sucking with relish.

"Yes, your father is in his mid-twenties and he eats it too."

Gu Jia smiled and sighed.

"What to do today?"

Zhou Jing smoothed the hair off Gu Jia's face and said.

"Make egg tarts for Zhou Zhou and watch a movie with him in the afternoon. What do you want to do?"

Gu Jia really wanted to take the children out for a walk, but Zhou Jing's current status is special, and going out together may easily cause unnecessary attention. Being too famous is also very troublesome and inconvenient. In order to protect her family's information and privacy, Gu Jia does not want her children to be photographed by paparazzi.

"No." What other personal entertainment options does Zhou Jing have besides spending time with his wife and children as he has a family?

"It's time to buy summer clothes for Zhou Zhou. Should I go today or on the weekend before Zhou Zhou sleeps in?"

The weather was starting to get hotter and the child didn't have summer clothes yet. Gu Jia imagined in her mind what her daughter would look like wearing a beautiful dress.

"Today."

Zhou Jing said while holding the child's chubby foot in his hand under the quilt.

After the children finished eating, Gu Jia got up.

"Dad~Dad's eyes, Dad's nose~huh~"

The little girl snuggled into Zhou Jing's arms, her face pressed against his.

"Where are Zhou Zhou's teeth?"

Zhou Jing said as he looked at his daughter who was as sweet as candy.

"Here~"

The little girl opened her mouth, revealing two rows of white teeth that had not yet fully grown.

"Where are Zhou Zhou's hands?"

Zhou Jing pinched the child's cheek and continued.

The little girl raised her cute little hands and pinched Zhou Jing's ears twice, then scratched them and said, "Daddy's ears."

"Who's Daddy's little cutie?"

Zhou Jing kissed the child's hand and said.

"Tie me~"

The little girl pointed at herself and said.

"Who is Daddy's cutie?"

"It's mom~"

After studying day after day, the little girl could answer these questions fluently.

"So who is cuter, mom or Zhou Zhou?"

Zhou Jing picked the child's nose with his little finger and wiped it with a piece of paper.

"Porridge~"

"My mom is cute. Can you be cute if she's cute?"

Gu Jia, who was sitting on the bed combing her hair, pouted and said.

The little girl imitated him and pouted her lips and kissed Zhou Jing on the face.

"Anyway, your dad thinks mom is cute. If you like your dad so much, ask your dad to comb your hair."

Gu Jia acted disdainful, combed her hair and threw the comb to Zhou Jing.

"Zhou Zhou is cute too."

Zhou Jing picked up the comb and combed the child's hair. The little girl had very dense and good hair at a young age. With her hair combed, she looked quite delicate and sweet, as if she had spirit.

Gu Jia washed her face and went to the first floor to help Wu Suqin make breakfast.

Zhou Jing played with the child on the bed for a while, then got up, put the child in a baby carrier and washed him while washing himself. He hung the child on his chest, like a large pendant of Zhou Jing. Looking at herself in the mirror, the little girl danced happily. After washing up, Zhou Jing took the child to the outdoor balcony.

The morning breeze in June was cool and pleasant, the villa area was full of greenery, and the air was not as good as in the countryside, but much better than in the city. After enjoying the fresh air on the balcony, Zhou Jing returned to the house, turned on the study computer and checked his emails.

There is an email from Chen Jiaqian in the private mailbox, and it can be seen from the email that Chen Jiaqian is eager to return home.

Chen Jiaqian's graduation thesis went very smoothly. She will defend it on June 13th. If nothing unexpected happens, Chen Jiaqian will buy a flight ticket to return home on the 17th.

In the last half month, Zhou Jing was calm.

Last month, Bai Xiyao went to Europe on a business trip and visited Chen Jiaqian. Zhou Jing didn't let Bai Xiyao tell Chen Jiaqian while she was abroad, so Bai Xiyao didn't tell her and decided to make plans after returning home.

After replying to Chen Jiaqian, Zhou Jing sighed inwardly, what is coming will come. Facing the Shura field for the first time in his life, Zhou Jing could only do his best and leave the rest to fate. No matter to Chen Jiaqian, Yang Wenwen or Gu Jia, Zhou Jing did everything he could, and of course he also did what he couldn't do. There was no other way except to bite the bullet and expose it.

After breakfast was ready, Gu Jia called out from the first floor. Zhou Jing logged out of his and Chen Jiaqian's email accounts, deleted his login records, and then went downstairs.

"Would you like to get down and walk on your own?"

Gu Jia said to her daughter who was hanging on Zhou Jing's chest very comfortably.

"Hmm~"

The little girl shook her head reluctantly.

"Little rascal."

Gu Jia gently poked the child's face.

"You can't walk when you're hungry, so you can walk on your own after you've eaten, right?"

Breakfast was steamed dumplings and millet porridge, and Zhou Jing ate while feeding the child.

"Ah~"

The little girl opened her mouth wide and waited to be fed.

Zhou Jing put two steamed dumplings in the child's bowl, crushed them with chopsticks, mixed the skin and stuffing together, and fed the child with a spoon.

"Are you happy being spoiled by your father?"

With Zhou Jing taking care of the children, Gu Jia felt more relaxed. She never delayed her meals because she had to feed the children first.

"Mom~ah~"

The little girl stretched her neck towards Gu Jia and opened her mouth wide.

"Just let your dad feed you."

Gu Jia said this, drank a mouthful of the millet porridge, and when it was no longer hot, she scooped a spoonful, blew on it and fed it to the child.

"I'll have to eat on my own in a few months."

Wu Suqin looked at her granddaughter and said.

After breakfast, Zhou Jing took the children to play outside. He brought a football and played football with the little girl in the playground in the backyard. Wu Suqin didn't ask Gu Jia to wash the dishes, so Gu Jia went outside to play with them.

The three of them stood in a triangle. Zhou Jing kicked the football to Gu Jia, and Gu Jia kicked it to the child. The little girl didn't catch it, but ran after the ball. After she caught up with the ball, she clumsily held it and kicked it, almost knocking herself down.

"Does China have a chance to qualify for the next World Cup?"

Gu Jia stood with the child, helped the child pick up the ball and taught the child how to kick.

"There is no hope, and there may not be hope in the next 20 years."

Zhou Jing knows how difficult it is for the Chinese national football team to qualify for the World Cup.

"Add the previous ten years to make thirty years. Is it really that bad?"

Although Gu Jia is not optimistic about the Chinese national football team, it is a bit hard to believe that they will not be able to enter the World Cup in 30 years.

"Athletes in other sports can only make big money by playing to their full potential, but the Chinese national football team can make big money just by joining the team."

Zhou Jing is not cursing the Chinese national football team, it's that the Chinese national football team is really bad and they don't need more practice. It's ok to watch the Chinese national football team's games for fun, but if you take it seriously you'll be so angry that you'll curse.

"The future of the national football team depends on us, Zhou Zhou. 1, 2, 3 kicks. The college entrance examination is coming soon. How many students in your class are repeating?"

Gu Jia put the ball at the child's feet, supported the child and said.

"All five of them should be able to pass the first-tier exam."

Zhou Jing couldn't help but sigh with emotion. This year, some of his students will be taking the college entrance examination. In order to encourage the students in Class 211 and 985 of high school to repeat their studies, Zhou Jing set up awards for several of them. If they are admitted to a second-tier university, they will be awarded yuan; if they are admitted to a first-tier university, they will be awarded yuan; if they are admitted to a university, they will be awarded yuan; and if they are admitted to a university, they will be awarded yuan. I wonder if they will do well.

Wu Suqin asked, "How did they do in the exam last year?"

"Two were a few points away from second-tier universities, two passed the second-tier universities, and one was a few points away from 211 universities."

The student who was a few points away from 211 asked Zhou Jing about it. Zhou Jing didn’t support him repeating the year. He just wanted to study in a better university. He told the student that if he didn’t have the determination to get into a 985 university, there was no need to repeat the year. As a result, the student probably misunderstood Zhou Jing’s meaning and thought that Zhou Jing encouraged him to get into a 985 university.
"The admission scores for undergraduates are getting lower every year. Now it's basically not difficult to get into a second-tier university. As long as you listen carefully in class and do your homework carefully, you can get in. It's not like when we had difficulty getting into university."

Looking back now, Gu Jia feels that he was also a top student back then.

Gu Jia smiled and continued, "I am a hard-working person, and you are a genius. Don't you think so?"

"Makes sense."

Zhou Jing thought to himself that he was a gifted person by God.
