It has been more than a day since I threw Qin Huairu into space.
After disappearing for so long, the courtyard house is probably going to report the crime soon, right?
The two little kids, Xiaodang and Huaihua, are probably going to faint from crying.
Fortunately, their two children had Aunt Yi across the street to help take care of them, because Qin Huairu had told Aunt Yi before going out.
Plus He Yuzhu is here, so there is no need to worry about the two children going hungry.
However, Qin Huairu hasn't appeared for so long. If those in the courtyard are not worried, something must be wrong.
No, as soon as Zhou Jimin returned home, Huang Xiaohua said that He Yuzhu and Aunt Yi had been here in the morning and afternoon.
He said he came to see Zhou Jimin, but he wasn't at home at all, and he didn't come home for lunch, just looking for an egg.
Zhou Jimin thought to himself that if he went to the courtyard again in the evening, there should be some good shows to watch.
Not long after he arrived home, his mother-in-law showed up with her grandson.
"Mom, my little guy is so heavy."
Reaching out and hugging Ding Xiaochuan's son, Zhou Jimin said with a smile.
Not to mention, this kid is heavier than a baby, and he seems to eat a lot.
However, the little guy soon became unhappy and jumped out of his arms and ran to play with his cousins.
Su Ruyun was very direct and asked him if he would go back to the desert again this time. The second thing was whether he had met Xiaochuan?
After chatting with my mother-in-law for a while, the little goldfish and the others came back one after another.
It can be seen that they are very happy and smile a lot more than before.
At dusk, a few little kids sat in the yard and whispered, looking at Ding Qiunan and the others from time to time.
"Little one, come here to daddy."
Zhou Jimin glanced at it and knew that what the little guys were talking about was not something good.
Upon hearing his father's greeting, Zhou Bingyi ran away. Zhou Qingxian and Zhou Qingyi were speechless, and then chased after him.
Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the little boy saw his two sisters coming over and immediately shrank into his father's arms.
"Xiaoxian, what are you going to do? Are you bullying your younger brother?"
The two little guys quickly shouted that they were wronged, saying that it was their younger brother who bullied them, so Zhou Jimin asked them to tell them what happened.
After they finished speaking, Zhou Jimin himself was happy.
The thing was very simple. A few little kids were idle and bored. My sister Zhou Qingxian asked the little ones, who is more beautiful, mom or grandma?
The little one didn't know what was going on, so he asked, "Why don't you have a sister?"
Then Zhou Qingxian added herself to the list and asked again.
Okay, Zhou Qingyi is not happy anymore, why doesn’t she have herself?
The final question is, who is more beautiful, the little one, mom, grandma, eldest sister or me?
It was just a proposition. The little one said without hesitation that her mother and grandmother were more beautiful.
How could the two sisters be happy?
So I bombarded the little boy with repeated readings, asking him to say it again.
This is what happened.
"Little one, tell dad why mom and grandma are more beautiful?"
Holding the little guy in his arms, Zhou Jimin asked with a smile.
Sometimes, the conversations between the little guys can really make people laugh.
No, the little boy carefully looked at his mother who was chatting with her grandmother, Huang Xiaohua and the others not far away, and then whispered in Zhou Jimin’s ear:
"Because mom and grandma are both tigresses, and I can't afford to offend them."
Haha!
This answer almost made Zhou Jimin laugh to death.
"Who did you listen to? You dare to say that your mother is a tigress, and you are not afraid of her spanking you?"
"My sister-in-law told me, dad, I heard my sister-in-law said that it was you who told me that my mother is a tigress, right?"
Ga!
Zhou Jimin feels that this little brat deserves a beating!
"It doesn't happen. It's impossible. How could it be what I said?"
After being denied three times in a row, Zhou Jimin didn't dare to offend the pregnant Ding Qiunan, otherwise he would have to coax him in the end and he wouldn't be bothered to death?
So, he quickly changed the topic and said:
"Dad is here to carve your figurines. Xiaoxian, you and Xiao Bu Dian are going to help dad get the tools. Be careful. Xiaoyi, go call your third uncle and ask your third uncle to help dad find some pieces of wood."
As long as the little ones get busy, they will soon forget what they just did.
After a while, Zhou Qingxian and the two little guys brought the tool kit, and the oldest Zhou Jikang also quickly found the wood.
There is a lot of wood at home, right at the door of the kitchen.
Wood suitable for carving figures, such as nanmu, ginkgo and camphor wood, are very suitable for beginners.
What Zhou Jimin is holding now is rosewood, which is a common wood at home.
Although this thing is expensive, part of the space is produced, so he takes it out and stores it at home.
Of course, the so-called expensive refers to the future.
Nowadays, they are not expensive at all, and many people are not very interested in or dislike these old objects made of rosewood. Instead, they prefer practical mahogany.
Seeing Zhou Jimin playing carving, Ding Qiunan and the others quickly gathered around.
In an era when entertainment was scarce, everyone was still very interested in crafts like carving.
Well, I just want to see how an ordinary piece of wood can be turned into a lifelike figure.
Even in later generations, the videos of craftsmen are still sought after by many people.
In terms of Zhou Jimin's exquisite skills, it is not to say that he is inferior to those old masters, but he is definitely much better than some carvers who have been practicing for a few years.
The most important thing is that it is fast enough.
In later generations, why are those short videos of craftsmen so popular?
Didn’t you press the fast forward button?
Otherwise, not many people would be willing to watch those tedious carving processes.
"Wow, dad, are you carving mom?"
"Yes, yes, I didn't seem to see mom's figurines yesterday. Dad, have you forgotten?"
Zhou Jimin, who was serious about carving, didn't want to talk to the little guys, but when he heard the following words, he couldn't help but stop and said:
"Of course Dad gave it to me. If you don't believe me, ask Mom?"
Seeing everyone's gazes, Ding Qiunan blushed and nodded, and then heard Zhou Qingyi say she wanted to see it.
Ding Qiunan shook his head and refused without hesitation, saying that you can't see it, only I can see it.
Of course the little ones refused, and immediately started clamoring to watch. Then they saw their mother’s raised palm and shut up instantly.
The influence of Tigress is evident.
"Okay, stop arguing, I'll carve it for you now, and you can look at it later."
Zhou Jimin said something, and the little ones immediately looked at him, saying, "Daddy, hurry up, we want to see mommy."
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, but Zhou Jimin couldn't say anything yet.
He is already fast enough, he needs to be faster?
And I want to see my mother. Isn’t the person sitting next to me my mother?
Children's words are unbridled, and they have the right to fart.
And Ding Qiunan was no longer angry because she had just given birth.
She also wanted to get some fresh air.
Zhou Jimin's hand speed increased, and in less than half an hour, the basic outline of Ding Qiunan came out amid the exclamations of the children.
The little goldfish's eyes lit up when he saw it. The big brother is really amazing. He can do such crafts as carving easily. He is worthy of being a big brother.
The third child suddenly spoke:
"Brother, can you teach me?"
"You want to learn?"
Zhou Jimin was very surprised. This was the first time that the third child spoke.
You know, the third child doesn't like to talk the least, and he doesn't like to ask for help.
Being able to say such things shows that he really likes you.
No wonder he kept staring at the figure yesterday, and he had been looking at it carefully just now.
"Well, brother, can I learn?" He nodded heavily and asked again.
His tone was somewhat anxious, which was really difficult for him.
"Yes, as long as you are willing to learn, I am willing to teach."
After that, he looked at Lao Si and the little goldfish and said, "What about you? Do you want to learn?"
The two shook their heads directly.
See if it's okay, just learn it.
Especially the fourth child, he fell in love with writing.
Last year, Zhou Jimin had to chase after him to check his homework, but now he is very self-conscious.
And, the more he wrote, the more he felt that he lacked knowledge.
He has to read, cope with school work, and write. Does he have other energy?
In addition, his eldest brother also gave Bu a rule that for every two hours of reading, he must devote twenty minutes of activity time.
Otherwise, I am afraid that my body will become useless in the future.
He has long believed in his elder brother's words.
Therefore, he should be lucky to be able to improve his current writing ability.
The little goldfish loves to play, and she has so little time to play and so much school work. How could she take the initiative to take over on her own?
Besides, it’s okay to have a big brother at home.
Even if she doesn’t know how to do it, she’s still fine.
"Okay, Fourth Brother, you take a look first. If you have time these days, I'll teach you some basic things first."
Zhou Jimin didn't care, since they were all his younger brothers and sisters, one or two, no difference. As long as he had time, he would be happy to teach them.
"Once you have mastered the basic exercises, we will gradually increase the difficulty..."
So, live performance turned into teaching.
Listening to him talk about these carvings, everyone listened with great interest.
He didn't just talk about professional vocabulary and techniques, but told the fourth child the nouns and basic techniques of carving through storytelling.
Ding Qiunan likes this kind of atmosphere the most, where everyone gathers together, chats, and gossips about everyday things, how nice it is!
Su Ruyun also listened with a smile, but kept busy with her hands.
Although the intervertebral disc is herniated, my hands are not injured and are suddenly very flexible.
Knitting sweaters for her grandson is the happiest thing for her as a grandmother.
It’s almost the Chinese New Year now, and winter is almost over, so it’s indeed a bit late.
But it’s also the love from grandma.
Besides, before winter started, I already gave one as a gift, and now it’s the second one, so it’s not bad.
The carving performance lasted for more than an hour.
It wasn't until Zhou Jimin had finished carving the figure that everyone cheered happily that it ended.
In the evening, after dinner, Zhou Jimin said, go out and be back soon.
Then he left home alone.
He went to a deserted alley nearby, changed his clothes, and then slowly walked along the shadows towards Nanluogu Lane.
Under the cover of darkness, Zhou Jimin climbed over the wall and soon arrived at the backyard.
Why come to the backyard?
Because we have to create a misunderstanding!
No one is at Liu Haizhong's house, and the lights are all out.
However, Zhou Jimin still approached the Liu family gently.
Pushing the door open, hey, there's really no one there.
At this point, no one is at home, either going out for something or having a hospital-wide meeting.
Remembering that Qin Huairu is still in her own space, it is normal to hold a hospital-wide meeting or go out to find someone.
Here's your chance!
After a quick glance, Zhou Jimin quickly confirmed Liu Guangfu's bedroom.
However, when he wanted to put Qin Huairu on Liu Guangfu's bed, he suddenly stopped.
No, wouldn’t it be more exciting to put it on Lao Liu’s bed?
By the way, the wardrobe also needs to be decorated to create the illusion that Qin Huairu has been hiding in the wardrobe.
Otherwise, there is no way to explain that a living person was hidden at home and no one discovered it?
Also, Aunt Liu is often at home.
But Aunt Liu also sometimes goes to the toilet outside, so it is normal to give her bangs an opportunity.
As for why Qin Huairu didn't go home for a whole day and a night, it's because he took too much Ecstasy.
After careful inspection, he found that the problem was not serious, so Zhou Jimin left the Liu family.
I believe that when Lao Liu and the others come back later, they will probably explode when they see Qin Huairu sleeping on the bed covered with a quilt!
After finishing, Zhou Jimin left the courtyard and quickly returned home.
Turn around, there is no news in the morning.
In the evening, when Zhou Jimin came back, Huang Xiaohua already knew about it.
There was a serious incident of broken shoes in the courtyard.
Comrade Liu Haizhong in the backyard and Qin Huairu, a pretty widow in the middle courtyard, broke their shoes.
And it’s still solid!
Even Qin Huairu herself was confused, her whole body hurt so much, and her pretty face turned pale.
It can be seen that the period of disappearing has been a lot of torment.
Liu Haizhong couldn't argue, but when he saw Qin Huairu, who was naked, her body was still very honest.
Well, I swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva.
The same was true for Liu Guangfu at that time. Aunt Liu was almost furious. How could this happen?
This matter cannot be prevented, and the Liu family is not alone in the backyard. Otherwise, Qin Huairu can be sent away without anyone noticing, and then the conflict can be resolved internally.
Unfortunately, Aunt Liu only focused on crying and punched and kicked her bangs.
It means that this life cannot be passed.
He went to fight Qin Huairu again.
Although Qin Huairu was confused, she was not a freeloader and quickly fought back.
Anyway, I heard that when the big guy arrived, he happened to see two bodies wrestling together.
Aunt Yi had a clear mind and drove all the men out of the house.
Even so, most of the old and young men in the courtyard have seen Qin Huairu's figure.
That's really beautiful.
Some are just glimpses, but they also leave a deep impression in my mind.
He Yuzhu is confused.
He never expected that Qin Huairu would get into trouble with Liu Haizhong, who was fat, old, and most importantly, ugly.
How could she keep talking?
Thinking of that scene, He Yuzhu trembled all over.
The image of the goddess in his heart suddenly collapsed.
How could this happen?
Yi Haizhong was also shocked: Lao Liu and Qin Huairu?
Two people who are completely unrelated to each other actually got together to break the shoes?
You just did it, but you still did it at home?
Well, it seems that there is really no other place besides home.
At this time, the courtyard was already in a state of chaos, with cries and curses all coming together.
It was very chaotic and noisy.
After the shocking explosion, people from the street office came.
Director Wang was so angry that Bangge, the master thief of the courtyard, was still waiting for the sentencing. Something happened again?
And one of the protagonists in the accident is Bangge’s mother Qin Huairu?
Is the Jia family the source of cholera in the courtyard?
However, when it came to breaking the shoes, Qin Huairu and Liu Haizhong both tried their best to deny it.
Even Aunt Liu, who had reacted, remained silent and finally shook her head.
So, there is nothing like parading in the streets.
The parties involved have denied it, and even the victim, Aunt Liu, has not expressed any intention to pursue the case, so the matter can only be left alone.
In fact, it is not difficult to understand what Aunt Liu did.
First, Liu Haizhong simply does not have the time and means to commit the crime.
This is also the conclusion Aunt Liu came to after she calmed down and thought about it carefully.
Although Old Liu is a fat man, the salary of a seventh-level worker is also very high.
But he is also busy on weekdays. Even if he is at home during the holidays, he only drinks wine, eats and drinks peanuts, and shows that he has evil intentions but no courage when it comes to sex with women.
Second, Aunt Liu usually stays at home. She only goes to buy vegetables, hang clothes, go to the toilet and so on.
At this time, Liu Haizhong can commit the crime?
Besides, isn’t there a deaf old lady and a few other households in the backyard?
These are not blind or deaf. Qin Huairu and Liu Haizhong, two living people, can't see it?
Third, Liu Haizhong is getting older, and his married life with Aunt Liu is not so harmonious. How can he still have the energy to deal with Qin Huairu?
In addition, even if Lao Liu suddenly becomes brave and wants to try to break the shoes, he will definitely show his weakness.
After all, Aunt Liu has been with him for so many years, and her son is already in his twenties. How could he not be familiar with Lao Liu's character?
But Lao Liu hasn't done anything weird recently, and Qin Huairu's son is still at the police station. Even if Lao Liu can help, Qin Huairu can't possibly break his shoes with him at this time, right?
Since the person concerned did not pursue the case or report it, Director Wang no longer struggled with it.
Anyway, the street office came to warn and educate about this matter, and then left.
The melon-eaters were a little disappointed that they didn’t come to the parade.
Of course, I am disappointed, and this matter has been completely spread.
But Qin Huairu, who had come to her senses, quietly found Liu Haizhong and demanded compensation.
The latter looked shocked and asked to pay for it. I haven’t settled the score with you yet, but you’re so lucky that you’re going to beat me up?
"Even if nothing happened to us, you really exposed me naked last night. Is it too much to ask you to pay fifty yuan?"
Liu Haizhong was stunned. Is your body rimmed with gold? Just open your mouth and get fifty yuan?
"No, it's impossible. I haven't held you accountable for ruining my reputation, so you still dare to ask me for money? Are you crazy about money?"
"Really not giving it?"
Since I successfully caught Zhou Jimin in front of Zhou Jimin’s house two days ago, I had no choice but to...
Qin Huairu seems to have been opened up to the Ren and Du channels, and her brain is extremely easy to use.
Seeing Liu Haizhong shaking his head firmly and refusing to pay for compensation, she messed up her hair and pulled off some of her clothes, revealing a touch of snow-white.
Then he shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Uncle Liu, he wants to molest me..."
At this time, Liu Haizhong was completely dumbfounded.
Qin Huairu's rank has suddenly improved a lot. Who can stop this move?
This is Jia's house in the middle courtyard of the courtyard. Qin Huairu shouted, did everyone come over quickly?
So, Lao Liu quickly stepped forward and tried to cover her little mouth.
This move plays into Qin Huairu's plan.
After all, her body has been exposed by the other party, so let him hug her and make her even more hateful later.
She’s not at a loss anyway, right?
Woohoo!
The quickest one to arrive was the God of War from the Siheyuan. When Shazhu arrived at the door of Jia's house, he saw a fat pig hugging Qin Huairu with a look of horror on his face, and his blood immediately surged.
The hatred is overwhelming.
In his opinion, Qin Huairu is the little dragon girl in his heart, sacred and inviolable.
Despite last night's scene, the image of the goddess has collapsed.
But Qin Huairu is Qin Huairu after all. When Aunt Liu remained silent, Shazhu himself also figured out something: Sister Qin did not do it voluntarily!
It must be forced!
After all, Sister Qin’s salary is very low, and it is not easy to support three children.
Only the reason of being forced can explain the incident of breaking shoes, and Liu Haizhong has this ability.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
But, but, seeing the scene in front of him at this moment, He Yuzhu immediately thought that his guess was correct.
So, he stepped forward and swept away thousands of troops with one strike, kicking the big fat man Liu Haizhong away.
"Sister Qin, are you okay?"
Unknowingly, He Yuzhu's address also became more polite and distant.
However, when he noticed the gleam of white on her upper body, Shazhu couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
There is nothing I can do about it. Silly Zhu, who has been solo for many years, has been kissed several times, but he has never even held the little girl’s hand, let alone such an exciting scene?
As soon as he saw this white snow, he quickly remembered the scene he saw last night.
Just a nosebleed.
Many people came to the door.
Qin Huairu is even more pitiful. As an actress with the best acting skills, her natural expression and instant entry into the scene can get double the effect.
The disheveled hair and messy half of the body add to the strong visual impact and the weak and pitiful preconceptions and sympathy.
Aunt Yi, Liu Guangfu, Yan Bugui and others were all dumbfounded.
What's going on?
Not enough trouble last night?
Director Wang just left and couldn’t help it anymore?
Aunt Liu was completely disappointed and left without saying a word.
Even if she doesn't want a divorce, she doesn't want to see this scene.
And Liu Guangfu was completely confused.
To say that last night was probably just speculation, besides, just like his mother, he, as a son, also knows his father very well.
However, looking at the current scene, it seems impossible for Lao Liu to clear himself of suspicion.
When I think about Qin Huairu, whom I like, she also has an affair with her father.
It’s strange that Liu Guangfu’s heart feels better.
"Hey, Lao Liu, what should we say to you?"
Both Yan Laojie and Uncle Yi had sad and sorrowful expressions on their faces, as if they had made careless friends who knew people well but didn't know their own feelings.
Hearing the words of the two people, Liu Haizhong opened his mouth to explain, but Qin Huairu beat him to it.
"Uncle Yi, Teacher Yan, you have to make the decision for me. This Uncle Liu, he...wuwuwu!"
There are some words that don’t need to be said too much, and it will be more effective than explaining them completely.
After all, people's imagination will make the story more perfect, and it will definitely have more imagination than what she said.
Besides, there are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand readers.
Although Qin Huairu doesn't understand these principles and doesn't know what Hamlet is, she just knows this matter and what should be done.
Sure enough, the expressions of Uncle Yi and Mr. Yan suddenly changed.
The onlookers at other station entrances also listened and watched carefully.
Meng Zhenhua in the crowd looked at him in surprise.
What happened in the past few days has undoubtedly refreshed and even shattered his outlook on life.
With Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui upholding justice, Liu Haizhong reluctantly paid 100 yuan, and the matter was settled.
But, who knows whether it’s really a rewrite?
But what if Qin Huairu's family is short of money one day?
When everyone was making a fuss because Qin Huairu broke her shoes, Qin Jingru had quietly left the yard.
I happened to meet Meng Zitong, Little Goldfish and others playing at the entrance of the front yard, so I casually told the little guy that she was going back to the countryside and asked the little Goldfish to go home and say something to Zhou Jimin for her.
Since returning to the courtyard the day before yesterday, she has not had any contact with anyone.
Even yesterday when He Yuzhu and others knocked on the door looking for someone, she didn't open the door.
Last night, the appalling incident of my cousin breaking shoes happened, and she didn’t join in the fun.
It was obvious that she had listened to Zhou Jimin's words.
She thought about what happened the day before yesterday carefully several times, and finally realized it.
That's what Brother Zhou said: Don't get involved in her cousin Qin Huairu's affairs anymore, and then you must do what you say.
Therefore, her words of plea to stay the day before yesterday really screwed up Zhou Jimin.
No wonder he sent her back to the courtyard, but never came to see her until she left.
Brother Zhou, you must be very disappointed with yourself, right?
In this case, she must be independent and self-reliant, and must prove to Brother Zhou that she, Qin Jingru, is no worse than anyone else.
After leaving the courtyard, she did not return to Qinjiazhuang. Instead, she asked someone to bring a letter to her grandfather, saying that she was leaving the Zhou family for a while and that she wanted to lose weight.
I guess Lao Qin will be shocked when he sees this letter, right?
My granddaughter ran to Zhou Jimin and actually gained weight?
How much food do you need to eat?
In this day and age, it is really difficult to gain weight.
Everyone doesn’t have enough to eat, so you can actually gain weight? You can’t say you gained weight just by drinking water, right?
No one will believe the childish lie that drinking cold drinks will make you gain weight.
Therefore, after Lao Qin read the letter, he pretended that this incident had never happened.
When the time comes, when he sees his granddaughter, he will teach her a lesson.
In his opinion, a sixteen-year-old girl is still in the growth stage, how can she become fat?
Therefore, there is only one truth.
The reason why Qin Jingru gained weight was probably due to greed and laziness.
Otherwise, it is impossible to gain weight.
Qin Jingru, who still didn't know that she had caused a big disaster, had already arrived at Li Meifeng's house and started giving birth as planned.
According to neighbors, Qin Jingru is Li Meifeng’s distant cousin.
It should be noted that Qin Jingru tried to avoid contact with Fan Zhaodi.
After all, the latter is Zhou Qingxian's wet nurse. Although she has little contact with the Zhou family now, the relationship is there after all. During the holidays, she still meets Zhou Qingxian.
Therefore, she also met Fan Zhaodi several times.
It's just that Fan Zhaodi is too shy. Whenever she's around outsiders, she keeps her head down.
As a result, she didn’t know Qin Jingru at all.
While Qin Jingru was preparing to give birth, Zhou Jimin was enjoying the warm daily life at home with his son and daughter around his knees.
"Dad, that's awesome. You've finished another sculpture. Dad, please drink some water and take a rest."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Seeing that her father had completed another beautiful handicraft, Zhou Qingxian immediately cheered and handed the water on the side to her father.
He is indeed a caring little cotton-padded jacket from his parents. Zhou Bingyi may not be able to learn from this heart-warming gesture.
Of course, the little one is still too young, having just turned two years old.
Zhou Jimin drank the water happily and touched Xiaoxian's head.
However, before he could rest for long, the little guy Zhou Qingyi trotted up to him with the comics he had drawn before.
"Dad, dad, can you carve the Monkey King?"
Monkey King, the Monkey King, is not only the familiar protagonist in the four famous novels, but also because of the cartoons drawn by Zhou Jimin, which made everyone in his family like it after reading it.
The views of the Four Great Classics were put forward by some people as early as after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Of course, it has not yet been officially defined.
But in the eyes of many people who like to read novels, Journey to the West can indeed be listed as one of the four famous novels.
There are many people who have commented on Journey to the West.
"Okay, daddy, can you make a big figure for you?"
After hearing their father's words, everyone became curious. The little goldfish who was doing homework at the side even raised his head and said
"Brother, you said big, how big is it?"
"How about making it one to one according to the proportions in our book?"
In the original work, among the four masters and disciples of Sun Wukong, Sun Wukong is the shortest, less than four feet tall.
It means about one meter and three meters.
In Chapter 49, Tang Seng was imprisoned in a coffin with a size of six feet, which shows that Tang Seng was about 1.8 meters tall as an ordinary person.
The remaining two, Zhu Bajie and Sha Monk, are 3.5 meters tall and 4 meters tall respectively.
It would not be difficult to carve out the appearance of Sun Wukong at a one to one ratio.
The 1.3 meter figure is still very easy to handle.
The only trouble is probably the golden cudgel.
"Really? That's great. Thank you, Dad. I love you so much."
When Zhou Qingxian and her three little ones heard this, they screamed in surprise, then threw themselves into their father's arms and kept saying disgusting words.
This makes Zhou Jimin extremely happy.
The little goldfish stopped doing her homework and decided to come and see how her big brother carved it.
Following the comic that Zhou Qingyi brought over, it turned out to be the scene in Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage when he faced the Great Demon King in the Five Elements Mountains, with the Great Sage standing in the void.
This is the scene of the final battle.
To carve this image, you really have to get the size right.
Otherwise, if this figure is really ruined, the three little guys will be very disappointed, right?
"Brother, let me help you."
The third child was also very happy. He just followed his elder brother to learn carving, but he also probably understood that the larger the figure, the harder it is to carve.
Not only is it time-consuming and labor-intensive, it also requires a lot of effort in terms of craftsmanship.
Therefore, he would not miss such a good learning opportunity.
At home, the third child helped to lay down a large piece of wood about 1.8 meters high.
In fact, Zhou Jimin is very strong and can handle this big guy by himself.
However, the third child was very enthusiastic, so Zhou Jimin did not refuse.
Brothers working together can cut through metal.
The big piece of wood the two brothers were playing with was made of purple nan and was very heavy.
This thing is actually a golden nanmu pillar that is very common in royal gardens and is very expensive.
If you want to buy something from outside, it’s very difficult.
But Zhou Jimin, who had space, still got saplings and planted some.
The idea is of course very simple, it is purely for personal use and adds a bit of heritage to the home.
As for whether anyone will find out?
Anyway, after the figure is completed, it will be painted and then painted with the color of the clothes belonging to the Monkey King. It is designated to cover up the color of Zinan itself.
While I was busy, my mother-in-law came over at the gate with her daughter-in-law Fang Xiaochun and daughter Ding Qiuhong.
"Son-in-law, what big project are you doing again?"
"Mom, you are here, fourth child, go and bring some stools out."
Zhou Jimin hurriedly ordered them to do something, but before he even opened his mouth, the fourth child ran out.
So do Xiaoqing and Little Goldfish.
Now the four younger brothers and sisters are much more sensible than before.
"Xiao Xian and the others want a bigger figure, why don't I get them a Monkey King?"
When he said this, Zhou Jimin looked at the three little guys dotingly, and then continued to work.
The family gathered around him and the third child, watching them working and chatting away. For a while, they felt really unhappy.
While chatting, Zhou Jimin suddenly asked to check Zhou Shuqing and the others' homework.
Earlier, he gave the four little ones homework, and they often read four famous works.
They were also asked to write an article about their thoughts after reading it.
And now that it has been so long, have you continued reading or how much do you still remember?
Since Little Goldfish, she has only read Journey to the West, and she still doesn’t know many words in it.
"You are already in the second grade, and you still say you want to skip a grade? How do you skip now? How many Tang poems have you memorized? Let's memorize it first and listen!"
Immediately, Zhou Jimin complained.
He actually doesn't have much expectations for the little goldfish, but she can't live without the learning pressure that ordinary children should have.
Moreover, she was high-spirited and felt that her memory was not bad, so she wanted to skip a grade even before she started studying the year before last.
Especially after seeing her fourth brother publish a novel and get royalties, she worked even harder.
But, it seems to be of no use.
But the little goldfish quickly recited it.
I recited more than ten Tang poems in one breath, as well as several Song poems and two short classical essays of more than 100 words.
This performance immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Zhou Jimin was also happy. He gave a thumbs up and praised him several times.
The little goldfish continued to recite, and Pandi and Laidi suddenly spoke up and recited along with them.
Very loud and fun.
This attracted Zhou Qingxian and the other three children to the side, staring directly at their sister-in-law.
They don't know how to memorize these yet. They only know some simple words and haven't started memorizing them yet.
So I admire the little goldfish and the others who can memorize so many books without taking a breath for so long.
"Not bad, not bad!"
Seeing that they had really worked hard, Zhou Jimin said again:
"After the new year starts, you should work harder. When school starts in September, you can skip a grade and go to fourth grade."
"Is it true? Brother, is it true?"
Upon hearing this, the little goldfish hurriedly confirmed.
The matter of skipping a grade in school was not something she had the final say on her own, it had to be approved by her elder brother.
Besides, they were already studying a year earlier than other students, and now they have to skip a grade. Then they will definitely be two years younger than their classmates.
"I'll give you a task. If you can do it, I'll let you skip a grade."
"Brother Zhou, we promise to do what you said."
Huang Pandi nodded immediately and said eagerly.
If you can skip a grade, you can still have one year of tuition left, and you can save a year of rice and other things.
In this case, they will be able to graduate earlier and start earning money to support their families earlier, which will reduce the burden on the eldest sister and the second sister.
If Zhou Jimin could hear her voice, he would probably die laughing: You are such a clever little ghost.
"Before the summer vacation next year, you will not only have to get two full marks in the final exam, but you will also have to recite more than a hundred poems, ten 100-word articles, and three 300-word articles."
After a pause, Zhou Jimin continued:
"In terms of mathematics, you must also be able to complete the difficulty of the third-grade questions. Then you will take a third-grade exam during the summer vacation, and your scores will be perfect from the beginning."
"If you can do it, you will be allowed to skip a grade."
"Ah, is it so difficult?"
The little goldfish and the others were dumbfounded, but they still agreed.
Although it is difficult, this challenge is not impossible.
After all, there is still more than half a year between now and next summer, so it will definitely be possible.
Seeing that they responded, Zhou Jimin smiled and said to Ding Qiunan and Zhou Shuqing:
"You have all heard it. Remember to supervise and don't let them be careless."
The latter two readily agreed.
Immediately, Zhou Jimin looked at Lao Si and asked the latter if he had written any new novels recently?
Whoa!
Everyone looked at the fourth child, who instantly blushed.
He already has the basic qualities of an otaku, being shy.
"Brother, I didn't write."
The little goldfish immediately revealed:
"Brother, Fourth Brother lied. He told me before that he had already written two novels."
The fourth child remembers blushing and stuttering when he opened his mouth.
However, he quickly said that his two novels could not be published at all.
Because he hasn't finished it yet, and he's not very satisfied with the storyline, it's not considered finished at all.
"Then you still said you finished writing? Tsk, I thought I could earn a lot of royalties."
Seeing the disdainful expression of the little goldfish, the fourth child blushed:
"Then I have more money than you."
"Tsk, when I graduate from elementary school, I will be able to write novels, and my royalties will definitely be more than yours."
"It's impossible, I won't stop writing, you can't pay more than me."
"I write fast, so I can definitely write more than you."
"..."
The confrontation between the two little childish ghosts made everyone burst into laughter.
Zhou Jimin didn't stop it either. It was considered healthy competition, as long as it didn't affect others and wasn't impatient.
Anyway, the family does not lack their royalties. It doesn’t matter whether they can make money or not.
Giving them something to do is more important than anything else.
Immediately, Zhou Jimin asked the fourth child about reading the four major classics.
The fourth child is worthy of being a person who has written novels. When he talks about these things, his mouth starts to crackle and he talks non-stop.
It seems that I have been practicing it in my mind for a long time, and I want to say it completely in one breath.
Everyone was surprised to see how eloquent he was. Didn't he stutter just now?
Why did it get better so quickly?
Did he just pretend?
In fact, this is normal. People will behave differently on topics they are interested in and those they are not interested in.
There is also fear or pressure.
Just like some people, when swimming in the swimming pool, they are very brave and can do various swimming styles at their fingertips.
But when I got into the sea, I became helpless.
It's even possible that you can no longer swim at all.
This is a manifestation of people's inner feelings towards changes in the external environment.
It is similar to chasing dogs and chasing chickens when you are a child and being afraid of chickens and dogs when you grow up.
"Yes, Fourth Brother, this shows that you have worked hard."
After knocking some wood open, Zhou Jimin smiled and praised:
"Keep up the good work. After you finish writing it, you must show it to me for review before publishing it. Do you remember it?"
"Brother, I know. I also want you to give me some advice."
"Haha, don't worry. If it's well written, then I'll naturally agree to your publication. If it's not good, I won't show mercy."
After chatting with the fourth child, we came to the third child.
The third child, this boring gourd, didn’t say much at all, just scrawled a few sentences and ended it.
Zhou Jimin sighed and said, "Read more. Articles like the Four Great Classics contain a lot of life philosophy and are worth reading from childhood to adulthood."
This is indeed the case.
Read it a hundred times and its meaning will appear automatically.
However, there is also the opportunity to review the past and learn the new, so you can read more of these books.
Of course, there is no way to force this. You can’t force the third child to watch it every day, right?
Finally, it’s Zhou Shuqing.
She is the simplest and talks a lot about Dream of Red Mansions.
After she finished speaking, Zhou Jimin concluded with a few words, and of course encouraged her.
Then he said:
"You have all read or finished Journey to the West, right? Well, let me give you a question and see if you can answer it correctly."
"Mom, Nannan, you can also participate and see who can get the right answer."
"Wait a minute, brother, is there a prize for correct answers?"
Seeing the little goldfish raise his hand to speak, Zhou Jimin said angrily:
"You won't answer if you don't get a prize, right? You may not be able to answer correctly, so you just want to win a prize?"
"What if I get the answer right?"
"There is no reward. If you want me to reward you, I will reward you with a big mouth. Do you want it?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
The little goldfish immediately shrank his head and shook his head in refusal.
He even whispered, "Big brother is so stingy.
These words happened to be heard by Zhou Qingxian, and she immediately retorted: "Sister-in-law, daddy is not a stingy person, daddy is very generous."
Then, everyone looked at the little goldfish, making her blush.
"Haha, Xiaoxian still understands me, little goldfish, you have to learn more."
"Hmph, stinky big brother, bad big brother. After having a daughter, he forgot about his sister. It's not fair."
"Oh, come on, tell me, what is fairness?"
Zhou Jimin suddenly looked at the little goldfish with a half-smile, and said in a serious tone.
"You are partial to Xiaoxian and Xiaoyi. You hug them but not me every time. You don't care about me at all. You respond and ignore me every time..."
The little goldfish complained, and the golden peas fell down.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little solid, and everyone understood clearly that Zhou Jimin used to dote on the little goldfish too much.
But because Zhou Qingxian and others gave less love to the little goldfish, she felt it was unfair.
It was hard for her to say it after suppressing it for so long.
"Little goldfish, it seems that I have protected you very well. When I go to the book in the study, there is a sentence in "Mencius Li Loushang" that says men and women cannot be intimate."
After sighing, Zhou Jimin continued:
"Ancient etiquette stipulates that men and women cannot have direct contact, talk, or give or receive objects. There is a saying that "eating cannot be connected to utensils, and sitting cannot be connected to the table."
"Now, the meaning of this sentence is actually the defense between men and women."
"I've told you many times that you are eight years old now and are a big kid. You can't always come to my side."
"As for saying that I care less about you, that is your own illusion."
"Think about it for yourself. You are usually so busy studying and often run outside to play, so you have the illusion that I don't care about you very much."
"Don't think so much, I treat you and Xiaoxian the same."
"If you still don't understand, then read more books. The answers are in the books."
The little goldfish seemed to understand, but finally said nothing more.
Therefore, Zhou Jimin continued the topic just now and asked everyone to prepare.
The question is also very simple. It is a question for a clerk exam. Choose the following four answers, which one is not a character in Journey to the West.
The first is Zhang Bairen, the second is Tang Seng, the third is Lu Dongbin, and the fourth is Chang'e.
After everyone listened to the questions, they began to answer.
The correct answer was excluded for the first time, and then there was a long hesitation between Lu Dongbin and Zhang Bairen.
In my memory, Lu Dongbin is a character in Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, and he should not be like a character in Journey to the West.
But who is Zhang Bairen?
Needless to say, Chang'e is a familiar figure to everyone. After all, she is the object of Zhu Bajie's pursuit.
"Brother, I choose Zhang Bairen as the first one."
The fourth child was the first to give the answer, followed by the third child.
Then Ding Qiunan and the others also spoke out one after another.
But no one chose Tang Monk, and Zhou Jimin was immediately depressed.
"Xiaoxian, what do you choose?"
"Dad, I choose the second one, Tang Monk."
"Why?"
Not to mention Zhou Jimin's surprise, Ding Qiunan and the others also covered their mouths and snickered, saying that Tang Monk was one of the protagonists of Journey to the West. How could they choose this answer?
Of course, Zhou Qingxian couldn't read, so she just made random guesses.
Unexpectedly, she replied abruptly:
"Tang Monk is not Jiang Liu'er."
"Then Xiaoxian, why didn't you choose Zhang Bairen?"
Zhou Jimin was startled, and then asked slightly nervously.
Children over three years old often read the Journey to the West comics he gave them.
There are not too many character names in it. Jiang Liuer is the protagonist in the comic, but she remembers it clearly.
Zhou Qingxian suddenly didn’t know the name Zhang Bairen.
However, the little goldfish noticed something at this time and changed his words:
"Brother, I don't want to choose first, I also choose second."
She was so smart that she came to her senses now. Tang Seng, Tang Seng, is not Chen Xuanzang.
She still remembered that Tang Monk's real name was Chen, his Buddhist name was Xuanzang, and he was honored as Master Tripitaka.
As for not choosing Zhang Bairen, she didn't know why. If it was a multiple-choice question, then she would definitely choose Zhang Bairen's answer.
