Chapter 485: He had never heard of a prospective captain scoring a zero in math

~8 min read 1,442 words

There is a saying: if you survive a great disaster, there will be blessings later.

When Lao Mo came to give his brother the photos, he also brought the result of the handling of that super-bear child.

"That kid's brain is sick. A few years ago, his grandmother died, and her body was already rotting, but the child didn't report it and let his grandmother... sigh."

When Lao Mo said this, he sighed and continued:

"Later, the child was adopted by the brigade, but he burned down the brigade's house. At first, everyone thought it was a circuit breaker problem, but later they found out that this kid, for the sake of money, stole the valuable things in the brigade and sold them, and to prevent others from finding out, he burned the brigade's house."

"Originally, he planned to go to the train station to steal money, but he saw you two and recognized you, so he wanted to stab the sister-in-law to retaliate against you."

When Lao Mo said this, he no longer had half a shred of sympathy for the kid who had just come of age.

To know how to retaliate, how to steal money, and how to burn down a house at such a young age—if left unchecked, wouldn't he be burning, killing, looting, and raping women?

"He confessed to everything and explained it clearly. According to his heinous conduct, the police station sentenced him to 20 years in prison."

By the time 20 years passed, the kid would be nearly 40 years old. If he was still stubborn and did something harmful to heaven and reason, then it would really be a firing squad.

Jiang Ye didn't say anything after knowing. One knife for 20 years of prison for that kid wasn't a loss.

Shen Man, however, frowned. When the kid came out, he would be under 40, which meant he still had the motive and ability to commit crimes.

It was just unknown who the victim would be in the next 20 years.

This matter passed, and normal life had to go on.

On the wall full of photos, under Xiao Mantou's strong request, a few photos of him as an infant exposing his little bird were taken down.

In their place were various commemorative photos of their family of four in Dongbei.

When she wasn't busy, Shen Man would mail local specialties from the Sea Island to Director Xu's family.

She would mail a large package to Auntie Ge every year; some kindness and grace could never be repaid in a lifetime.

Another was Sun Meili in Shenzhen. Over the years, she followed the trend, led by Ye Qinghong, and several military wives joined forces to mail some dried goods to Sun Meili.

The other party also returned packages, either with trendy fabrics or fashionable silk stockings.

Last time, she mailed back a family portrait, with Sun Meili holding a little girl, smiling brightly...

Brother Mo and his wife had a daughter four years ago and another son last year.

The wife's job was gone, but they didn't care. Now, guarding the restaurant, their life was very prosperous.

And Dahai, now that he was of age, many matchmakers were introducing him to objects. The girls felt he was steady and hardworking, and he was a chef, so he wouldn't starve, so his market was quite good.

However, Dahai wasn't in a hurry to talk about objects, but instead released word that he would only get married at thirty, which immediately scared away a bunch of people.

Lao Mo asked him if he wanted to go to heaven?

Getting married at thirty, what would he do if all the good girls were picked by then?

Dahai chuckled, teasing that his master didn't get married until he was thirty-five or thirty-six, right?

And didn't he still marry a beautiful, gentle, and considerate mistress?

Good, very good. Lao Mo took off his shoe and chased his eldest apprentice for two streets!

Letting him tease his master!

However, the real reason was that the two brothers were young at the time, and their relatives occupied their house. Now they were living in the master's house. If he got married, then...

He thought he could muddle through like this, and wait until he had the conditions to buy a house in the future before marrying a wife.

Unexpectedly, his master and mistress had long prepared a wedding house for him.

Two rooms and one living room, although not large, it was enough for him to get married!

Wuwuwu, he would be a cow and a horse for his master and mistress for a lifetime; no, in the next life, and the life after that, he would still pester his master and mistress, being a cow and a horse!

"Get lost, let me have an easier time in the next life, okay?

Save the wages you two brothers have earned over the years, and your mistress and I added quite a bit to buy you a house. Don't bother us in the next life!"

Lao Mo almost turned his face on the spot. Although he said that, he loved his apprentices, and the apprentices were filial to them; it was all mutual.

At the end of the year, Dahai got married. When Lao Mo came to send the invitation to his brother, he was still so angry that his teeth itched when he mentioned this matter.

But Shen Man could hear Brother Mo's heartache for his apprentices; he didn't want Dahai and his brother to be wrapped in grace, but hoped they could live their own small lives well.

"Daddy, the little turtle bit my hand, it hurts."

Brother Mo's daughter, Little Jasmine, started crying. When the adults looked, it turned out she really had her index finger bitten by the turtle in the pond.

Xiao Mantou was guiding Si Si's homework. Hearing the sound, he didn't even turn his head, letting his younger brother Shuai Shuai go "save people." That silly turtle listened to his younger brother the most.

And he, at the moment, had more important things to do!

"Brother Tianqi, is this how this problem is solved?"

"Hmm, did you learn it?"

"Uh, not yet."

"One more time."

Ji Si Si bit her pen holder in distress, her watery eyes almost filled with tears.

Brother Tianqi was too smart. Was this the difference between a top student and a bottom student?

She couldn't understand, and she couldn't see it. Math problems were so hard!

"Don't worry, if you learn it, I'll reward you with an ice cream."

Xiao Mantou saw the girl's face full of pain. Although he couldn't bear it, for the sake of the girl's future, he had to be ruthless now!

Ji Si Si must go to the same high school and university as him...

In the corner of the courtyard, Xiao Nuomi sat on the swing, smiling brightly.

"Brother Zhuzi, push higher."

"If you can't, change to Brother Jiaozi."

"No, I'll push, I guarantee I can push it high!"

"Childish."

The little boy leaning against the door reading a textbook looked at Zhuzi with disdain; he only knew how to do physical labor, unlike him...

Lian Lian came home. When crossing the threshold, she inadvertently looked at the textbook Jiaozi was holding. Hmm?

Instantly, her pupils dilated, and she asked incredulously—

"Liu Qingzhou, are you reading junior high school textbooks?"

Jiaozi's gaze was indifferent, and he asked coldly:

"Hmm, what, is that not okay?"

"Okay, okay, okay!"

Lian Lian was a bottom student and really couldn't understand the world of top students!

Daddy said, it doesn't matter if you're a bottom student; bottom students can also conquer the sea!

"Sister, don't play anymore, you have to study hard, otherwise how will you conquer the stars and the sea?"

Shuai Shuai had finally helped free the pet's mouth from the little girl's finger (is this right?), and taking advantage of the gap when his aunt sent people away, he came to urge his sister's studies.

He had never seen grades as poor as his eldest sister, second sister, and Sister Si Si.

Big brother gave Sister Si Si extra lessons, Brother Jiaozi gave second sister extra lessons, who did his sister have?

Only he, this younger brother, would loyally remind her!

As for his dad, he was a total daughter-slave, not putting any pressure on his sister at all. If this continued, and his sister's grades were particularly poor in the future, how could she be a captain?

He had never heard of a prospective captain scoring a zero in math! ===== CHAPTER 486 =====
