Chapter 631: Turtle stewed chicken aborted

~11 min read 2,156 words

"I think you don't need to eat either, just eat bamboo shoots fried with meat."

Ye Chenghu shrank back and hurriedly lowered his head to eat, not daring to talk back anymore, but thinking in his heart: I didn't say anything wrong. Others are still playing with mud, but I have to go to school. Damn, I was tricked. I thought going to school was fun!

The old lady smiled, "The bamboo shoots haven't grown yet, don't scare him. If his grades aren't good, at most he'll be held back for a year. By then, maybe he'll be amazing, and he'll know things others don't."

"Fart, if he knew, he wouldn't have to be held back."

"I wasn't held back either. Being held back is so embarrassing." There was one in the second grade next door who was held back, and he didn't want to be held back, or he would be laughed at.

"Knowing it's embarrassing, then work harder. Otherwise, after being held back, all your classmates will laugh at you, for example: 'That Ye Chenghu was originally in the same class as me, but later he was held back.' I know you're as smart as me, but you just don't use it on the right path. If you can score a hundred this semester, I'll take you to the city to look around."

Go to the city!

!

Ye Chenghu's eyes instantly shone, and he didn't pay attention to his father's bragging.

Last winter vacation, his father said he would give him two mao for pocket money, which was quite attractive to him, but he had eaten so many good things during the New Year and had been so loose with money, so now, two mao wouldn't make him fight for his life.

But, go to the city!

This wasn't something just anyone could go to. Even his mother hadn't been there!

When they were in class, he told his classmates that their family had taken a family photo during the New Year, and everyone was envious.

If he went to the city for a round and came back, he could be the boss!

"Dad, are you serious? If I score 100, will you take me to the city?"

"You have to score 100 in both Chinese and Math."

Ye Chenghu slapped the table and shouted, "Deal!"

Lin Xiuqing couldn't help but say, "If he really goes to the city for a round and comes back, won't he be able to fly to the sky? When he sees a chicken on the side of the road, he'll want to kick it."

Don't talk about children, not many adults in the whole village have been to the city. If this guy goes once, he won't be able to handle it when he comes back.

"Who said that? If I see a chicken on the road now, I want to rush up and scare it." Ye Chenghu tilted his neck, looking a bit proud.

"Saying it so loudly, do you think this is something worth showing off?"

Ye Chenghu pursed his lips, muttering in his heart: It wasn't you who said it, I just answered.

Ye Yaodong didn't care, "As long as he can score two 100s, it's nothing to reward him with a trip to the city. Boys should also walk around and see more, broaden their horizons, and increase their knowledge, knowing that there are people beyond people and heaven beyond heaven. Our place here is just the most remote countryside. If I don't take him out to walk around and see, how could he have that cognition."

As the saying goes, start from the dolls.

Knowing that the outside world is broader and more beautiful, he can have more motivation to strive for self-improvement.

However, this was just his wishful thinking. If he still mixed days, got by, and didn't seek progress, it didn't matter. He wouldn't lose anything. At worst, he'd raise him to sixteen, and then drive him out to carry a bucket into the factory and be self-reliant.

"Yes, yes, Dad is right!" Ye Chenghu nodded like a garlic-pounding machine, his father was still the best!

Lin Xiuqing glared at him, "Right your head, eat your meal quickly. Every day you want this and that, other kids don't eat as well or wear as well as you, and you still want to go to the city? If you go for a round and come back, won't it be like you went abroad? When you come back, will the group of kids have to set off firecrackers to welcome you?"

"Do we have to set off firecrackers?"

Lin Xiuqing nearly laughed, and poked his temple hard, "Eat your meal! If you say two more words, I guess you'll dare to think about going to BJ."

"When I grow up, I'll go to BJ myself."

Ye Chenghu held his chopsticks, buried his head in the bowl, and muttered in a low voice, his little eyes also looking at his father with hope.

Ye Yaodong naturally wouldn't let him down, and he could also hear that Aqing didn't strongly oppose it.

He said heroically, "I am the head of the household, I have the final say! If you can score two 100s this semester, I'll take you."

Ye Chenghu was in tears!

His father finally hardened for once, truly being the head of the household for once, and finally made his mother listen to him.

"Dad, you're so good, I'll definitely score two 100s and bring glory to my ancestors!"

Lin Xiuqing nearly sprayed out a mouthful of rice. Could two 100s bring glory to the ancestors?

"Where did you learn that word? If you don't know how to use it, don't use it randomly. If people hear it, they'll laugh at you. You can only use the word 'bring glory to ancestors' after you get into college."

Ye Chenghu scratched his head comically, "Is that so? Brother Ahai wants to make a lot of money, bring glory to his ancestors!"

"He's not wrong either. Making a lot of money and getting rich can also be called bringing glory to ancestors. Eat your meal, stop blabbering. You haven't eaten a few mouthfuls of rice, but you've said a basket of words."

"Then Mom, do you also agree?"

"What? What does it have to do with me?" Lin Xiuqing said unhappily, "Your father promised you, not me. Whoever promised you, go find them, I'm not responsible."

She also figured it out. If there was a piece of fat hanging in front of her eyes, it would be good if her son could run.

Anyway, Adong comes back every three days, and her parents are also in the city. If he really scores 100, it's not impossible to go to the city. It's also okay to go have a look, see, and feel the prosperity and liveliness of the big place compared to their countryside.

Give him some motivation for learning, so he won't just play all day.

How important is reading? For the first few decades, you could be an official if you were literate. Now that you can take the college entrance exam again, of course you have to study hard.

Ye Chenghu was instantly happy, "You should have said so earlier, otherwise it would be fine if Dad agreed."

He had been uneasy for a long time, fearing that his mother wouldn't agree and his father's promise to take him to the city would be aborted.

"Don't be happy too early, you'd better think about how to score two 100s first. In the final exam this year, you only scored 55." Ye Yaodong saw him so excited and happy, and wanted to hit him.

"I will definitely try hard to score two 100s!"

"Very good, having determination is a good thing, then I'll wait for you!"

Ye Chenghu felt full of motivation and couldn't wait to finish his meal and do his homework.

When he scored 55 in the Chinese final exam, he was scared and his hands itched to change it to 66, but thinking of Brother Ahai last year, who didn't know if he scored 38 or 28, changed it to 88, cheated his eldest uncle out of a five-mao reward, and was beaten until his skin was torn by his eldest aunt, he immediately chickened out.

66 wasn't much...

Maybe he would still be beaten. His mother had read to junior high, and wasn't as easy to fool as his eldest aunt...

However, it was also fortunate that he didn't take the risk. At that time, the whole family was drying dried fish there, and his mother was very busy and had no time to manage him, so he didn't get beaten!

Although Lin Xiuqing had already acquiesced, she was still a bit dissatisfied that Ye Yaodong spoiled the child so much, and muttered a few words while eating.

Ye Yaodong pursed his lips at her and pointed at Ye Chenghu who was taking his schoolbag into the room.

"Look, the effect is immediate! Usually, after eating, he puts down his bowl and chopsticks and runs out immediately, just like the ones next door, and doesn't do homework until dark."

"Who knows if he really went to do homework."

"Then why don't you go in and have a look later? I think it's quite good to give some rewards appropriately for the child's enthusiasm. Otherwise, if there is fun, why would they still have to write homework bitterly? We have to give them a goal."

"Then this reward to go to the city, the next reward for scoring 100, do we have to reward him to go to the province, and then reward him to go to BJ?"

"We can change to other rewards, such as buying him new clothes, new shoes, etc., or making him a toy. We have to learn to be flexible, you know? I haven't even been to the province or BJ myself, and I'm still rewarding him? Beat him to death with a stick!"

Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes at him, "You're so good at teaching children, teach them yourself in the future, don't scare the children with me all day."

Ye Yaodong smiled and put an egg in her bowl, "We have to have one good person and one bad person."

"So I'm the bad person."

"Of course, as the saying goes, a kind mother produces a spoiled son. If it's not you, who is it?"

Lin Xiuqing was blocked by him and had nothing to say.

The old lady was part of the atmosphere group, just smiling and watching them discuss teaching the children. After seeing that they had discussed enough, she said, "Eat, eat, eat quickly, dishes get cold quickly in winter, don't just talk."

After the meal, the couple pushed open the children's room door and took a look. Ye Chenghu was sitting at the table seriously doing his homework, and they felt very comforted.

Ye Yaodong also had an expression of "Look, I said so, right?"

Lin Xiuqing rolled her eyes at him and went to wash the dishes.

He also followed, "If we kill a chicken tomorrow, why don't we stew that turtle together? Those two little guys are quite good. They raised it for a whole year and didn't raise it to death. Let's kill it and eat it while it's still alive? Tyrant separates from chicken... no, it's turtle stewed chicken, tonic on top of tonic!"

"If you're not afraid that they will cry and ask you to compensate for one, then kill it and eat it."

"I think they haven't played with it for a long time, right? I guess they forgot, let's kill it."

"You know it and you still want to kill it? You can't keep anything. What's so delicious? You haven't eaten enough from the sea and the mountains, and you're still thinking about their pets."

Lin Xiuqing said unhappily. He was such a big person, and he wanted to eat everything.

"If you kill it now, you'll have to go catch two more for them at night. Anyway, the two of them are not here now, otherwise if you dare to say a word about turtle stewed chicken, they will cry for you to see immediately."

Ye Yaodong rubbed his nose, "Fine, then chicken is chicken. It's a pity it's not Jingzhe yet, otherwise dragon and phoenix soup would also work."

"Just know how to eat..."

Ps: Calamus is hung high, wishing the world beauty, "Zong" comes one after another, no matter sweet or salty, "Zong" has love...

Wish everyone a safe Dragon Boat Festival! ===== CHAPTER 632 =====

Ps: With calamus hanging high, may the world be beautiful, and may good things come one after another. Regardless of whether you prefer sweet or savory, may you have what you love...

Wishing everyone a peaceful and healthy Dragon Boat Festival!
