"Dad, your demands are too high. Lingbao is a small village girl. She doesn't know how to make tea. She doesn't know so much. She just has a good heart."
Cheng Yi jumped out at the right time again, and his words were rude but not rude.
Cheng Zhongqian felt that his son was really bad, and he couldn't explain himself and asked: "Didn't you like her before? Why are you talking to her now?"
Cheng Yi said awkwardly: "I didn't say anything to her. I was just afraid that she would cry. Dad, it's really scary when a little girl cries."
Especially Ling Bao, who is obviously not big and doesn't cry loudly, but it makes him feel very overwhelmed.
Such a small person has so much water in his eyes!
Hey, I really don’t want to experience such a terrible thing again.
Cheng Yun spoke for Ling Bao: "She is still young, so she will cry when she is wronged."
After saying that, he glanced at Cheng Zhongqian meaningfully.
Cheng Zhongqian exhaled heartbrokenly, he couldn't have any more of these two sons!
"Go out, I don't want to see you."
"Dad, if Ling Bao brings you some water later, just take a sip. It will really ward off the fire."
Cheng Zhongqian ignored everyone.
Cheng Yun asked tirelessly: "Dad?"
"I know, long-winded!"
Cheng Yun and Cheng Yi went out, and Cheng Yi asked: "Brother, is Grandma Ding really good at clearing away heat and detoxifying?"
Cheng Yun nodded.
Cheng Yi sighed: "Lingbao is so lucky, he can always find these things."
Cheng Yun was noncommittal.
After Ling Bao entered the space, she asked the king to help her find books that recorded Mother-in-law Ding.
The king found several books and placed them in front of her: "These books have records, but I think it would be better if you read this one. The records are more comprehensive, and there are also later studies to prove it, such as this paragraph."
The furry paw pointed at a large paragraph. Fortunately, the paragraph was long, otherwise I would not have known where it was pointing.
Lingbao now knows a lot of words, but he still can't understand them. The king said: "It's normal, learning should be done step by step. Don't worry about these terms, not everyone can understand them even in future generations."
Ling Bao nodded as if he understood.
"This just shows that there is no end to learning!" Teacher Wang exhorted excitedly, "You must study hard, you know?"
Lingbao: "Yeah, I know!"
After he finished speaking, he started to recite the Three-Character Sutra loudly. After reciting the Three-Character Sutra, he learned the Thousand-Character Sutra by heart.
The king nodded with satisfaction, who could be smarter than the human cub he brought with him!
For dinner, Cheng Yi spread pancakes under Ling Bao's guidance, but the proportions were not right. It was more batter than pancakes, but because of the addition of salt and wild vegetables, the taste turned out to be quite good.
Maybe this is talent.
The failed ones were also more delicious than those made by Cheng Yun.
Cheng Zhongqian finished his meal, but did not leave his seat. He took the book on the bedside and sat upright, looking at the oil lamp, as if waiting for something.
It seems that a few months of getting along is still useful.
Cheng Yun said: "Ling Bao, don't you want to make water for dad to drink? Go ahead."
Ling Bao raised his head from his rice bowl, turned his little head half a circle, and quietly shook his head at his brother: "No."
Huh? Are you really angry?
"why not?"
"Daddy is reading, no one is allowed to disturb him." Ling Bao covered his mouth and said in a low voice.
If you are well fed and clothed, your health will be better, your mouth will be rosy, and you will be twice as cute.
"It's okay, you go and try." Cheng Yun encouraged.
But Lingbao is a baby with a long memory, so she just won't go.
Not only did he not go, but when Cheng Yun wanted to show her that he would not be scolded for delivering water at this time, she stopped him.
"Brother, don't go."
Cheng Yun had no choice but to persuade him but didn't know how. Raising a child was indeed not easy.
Lingbao smiled with satisfaction and continued to eat with his head down, his face was covered with food, and he turned into a little cat.
Cheng Zhongqian suddenly put down his book and looked at Ling Bao's head expressionlessly.
As a result, Ling Bao concentrated on eating without even looking at him. The rice was so fragrant and delicious!
Cheng Zhongqian was silent for a moment and snorted angrily.
Lingbao finally raised his head, glanced at him, and lowered his head again. He still wanted to eat batter cakes tomorrow.
Cheng Zhongqian turned dark and walked away.
The king squatted next to him and said, "Let me just say that your father is very angry."
Lingbao couldn't agree more with this.
In the middle of the month, Cheng Zhongqian and Cheng Yun were going to the county seat. Lingbao had not been there for two months and wanted to go with him, so he started begging three days in advance.
"Big brother, please, you are the best brother."
Ling Bao threw herself in his arms, acting coquettishly like a little soft cake, with curved eyebrows and watery eyes looking at him expectantly. No one would have the heart to refuse such a look.
Cheng Yun was helplessly pestered by her and had no choice but to agree: "You can go, but you are not allowed to run around."
"Uh-huh!"
Cheng Yi took the opportunity to propose that he also wanted to go, and Cheng Yun agreed with a smile in his eyes. Don't think that he didn't know that it was Erlang who instigated Lingbao.
It rained lightly the next day, and mushrooms sprouted up in the mountains. Lingbao and Cheng Yi picked two baskets and gave some to the village chief's uncle's house and Aunt Guihua's house.
Zhao Guihua wiped Lingbao's face with a handkerchief and poured a bowl of hot water for them both.
Ling Bao thanked her sweetly: "Thank you, Aunt Osmanthus."
Zhao Guihua suddenly saw a hole in Cheng Yi's arm on his clothes: "I'm going to get a needle and thread to help you mend it."
Cheng Yi was embarrassed to bother others, but Zhao Guihua was very enthusiastic. She took a needle and thread and sewed the hole smoothly with fine stitches.
Ling Bao stood on tiptoe and took a look. He touched it with his hands and found that it was better than the ones they sewed. Theirs were all crooked, like caterpillars.
"Hey, why are Lingbao's clothes torn?" Zhao Guihua also found a hole in Lingbao's elbow and sewed it up, "Okay."
"She sews really well. We are all grown men in our family, and not all of them know how to sew."
Zhao Guihua smiled and said: "It's okay. If it breaks somewhere in the future, bring it and I'll help you sew it up."
"Is this convenient?" He said this, but he looked impatient. He didn't want to touch the needle again and keep pricking his hand!
"It's convenient. We're all neighbors. It's a simple matter and it doesn't take much time." Zhao Guihua waved her hands. She was used to doing these things.
"Thank you so much, auntie!" Cheng Yi said happily.
Zhao Guihua opened her mouth, as if she wanted to ask something, but after thinking about it, she still didn't ask.
After returning home, Cheng Yi told his elder brother about the "good things" he had received.
Cheng Yun was speechless: "I'm not a relative, but you're so embarrassed."
Cheng Yi muttered: "We are all neighbors, what's wrong with helping me?"
Is there anyone so helpful?
"Forget it about you and Ling Bao, you are still young. What will happen if dad and I are so shameless as to let others sew his clothes? Besides, do you think dad would be willing to let other women sew his clothes?"
Cheng Yi shook his head, dad really doesn't know how.
