Wang Xiang even specially killed a chicken. Several people were waiting for the last dish of braised chicken to be served. Yao Cuifang picked up the chicken leg and put it in Su Le's bowl.

Several sisters-in-law also picked up some good meat and put it into Su Le's bowl with a smile.

Su Le thanked her and started eating. Er Ya kept watching Su Le. When Wang Lan gave her a piece of meat, she imitated Su Le and said, "Thank you, mother."

This sentence made several adults look at her. She lowered her head and hugged her bowl. Su Le smiled and said, "Erya is really sensible. Thank you is a polite way of saying it. You don't have to feel uneasy."

Li Erya raised her head, smiled shyly, and sat on a bench beside her, holding her bowl.

Once one child had it, another one followed. The children all learned it. Previously, the family hadn't carefully taught them these things, and even the adults didn't consciously say them. As a result, the children also thought it was normal.

After everyone finished eating, several children gathered in front of Su Le. Li Yaozu, who had not yet gone to school, asked, "Aunt Wu, what is polite language?"

"That is, thank you, you're welcome, good morning, good afternoon, good evening, hello, nice to meet you, good night, etc. These are all polite words." Su Le explained to the children with a smile.

Several children nodded and looked at her.

Su Le explained, "In the morning, you can say good morning to elders, friends, and people you know. At noon, you can say good afternoon. At night, you can say good evening. If you meet a teacher, you can say hello to the elders. Or when you need help from others, you can say, "Can I have a favor?" or "Can you please help me find something?" If someone helps you, you should say thank you. If you help others and they say thank you, you should say you're welcome. When you meet new children or your deskmate, you can say, "Nice to meet you." Before you go to bed, you can say good night to your family."

The children nodded, indicating they understood. They said to Su Le, "Thank you, Aunt Wu, for the clothes." They learned and put it into practice.

Su Le replied, "You're welcome."

The children seemed to have a million questions in their mind and asked Su Le all the questions they had accumulated. Su Le answered them one by one.

Chen Qing, Wang Lan, Wang Xiang, and Yao Cuifang watched them like this and cleared the table and dishes.

Wang Lan sighed and said, "Su Zhiqing is indeed worthy of his title. A few children can learn something from him just by spending time with him and talking to him. Before, Erya wanted to go to elementary school, but I refused. Now it seems that she still needs to study."

Yao Cuifang said to her daughters-in-law, "All children must study, not one should be left behind. As long as they can learn, they must be nurtured."

Several daughters-in-law nodded and said, "If I still think they are just knowledgeable, it's the same here. Now I feel the gap between us and Su Zhiqing." Wang Xiang said.

"Yes, the way intellectuals teach their children is completely different from how we teach our children. We may beat and scold them impatiently and tell them that this is wrong, but we can't explain why it is wrong." Chen Qing also sighed.

Yao Cuifang thought about what happened in Beijing and had not yet told her daughters-in-law, so she told them everything she saw in the Su family compound.

After they finished washing the dishes, Su Le was still explaining a hundred thousand questions to the children. A few people approached and heard them.

"Why are ants everywhere?" Li Sanya asked, tilting her head.

Su Le explained with a smile, "This is why ants are one of the most successful insects on Earth. Ants like warm, humid places, just like we like swimming in the summer and sleeping on the kang in the winter. Ants also like this environment."

Several children squatted on the ground and studied ants.

"You all like sweets, right? You like snacks, right? You also like rice, vegetables, and braised pork, right?"

"I like it. The candy is so sweet! The snacks are delicious too." Several children answered with their hands dancing.

"Ants also like it, as they can find food sources through smell. Ants also migrate, just like we move to warmer places in the winter and wild geese fly south. They need to migrate with the seasons."

"Do you drink water when you're thirsty?"

"Yes!" Several children nodded.

"Ants also need to drink water. If there is a leak or damp place in the house, ants will come looking for water to drink."

The children nodded as if they understood. Li Yaozu said, "They are just like us!"

Su Le nodded, "That's right."

Chen Qing and the others were also listening, and they all nodded in agreement with Su Le's question. They also understood why ants were everywhere.

Wang Lan interrupted the children and said, "It's getting late. Shouldn't we go back?"

The children nodded unhappily. "Should we say goodnight now?" Arya asked.

Su Le nodded and said with a smile, "Good night, Daya, good night, Erya, good night, Sanya, good night, Guangzong. Good night, mother, good night, sister-in-law."

Several children also followed Su Le's example and wished everyone good night.

Wang Lan and Yao Cuifang took the children and their belongings back home.

Li Yaozu's children were also taken by Chen Qing and Wang Xiang to take a bath and sleep.

Su Le stretched, took a shower, and then went out for a walk in the mountains, keeping an eye out for anyone following him before knocking on the cowshed door.

"who?"

"Su Le."

Su Honghai opened the door. Su Le took six trips to get all the things.

"Le Le, why are you here again? We haven't finished eating yet, what a waste." Aunt looked at the pile of big and small bags on the ground.

Su Le first looked at the blankets of several people. They had all been replaced with thinner ones. It was obvious that summer would be hot. She took out a blanket and gave it to each person. "I came here for something, so I stopped by. Cover yourself with this in the summer. It's cooler. I also brought some mosquito repellent and ointment."

Su Honghai asked, "How is your shop going?"

Su Le smiled and said, "Not bad. By the way, Brother Can and Brother Tian both work for me. I found them. They are now living in the Su family compound."

When the aunt heard that her two sons were fine, she couldn't stop crying. "Lele, thank you so much."

Several people hid their food.

Su Le saw a lot of food under the bed and frowned. "Uncle, you don't want porridge. Eat rice!"

Su Honghai looked around awkwardly. Su Le wordlessly handed him the phone in his pocket. "This was developed by the Academy of Sciences. I left one for you. Hide it well so no one sees it. It contains the phone numbers of my family and Brother Can as well."

Lu Gao quickly stepped forward and took it over to examine it. "Our country has made another step forward, old fellows."

Several old leaders also came forward to look and nodded.

Lu Gao looked at Su Le and asked, "Girl, have you reached any agreement with the research institute?"

Su Le couldn't help but sigh. The old commander was indeed an old commander. He saw it right away. "Yes, I provided the drawings, and they were responsible for the research. I was responsible for the sales."

Several big men began to search their beds for some important items and handed them to Su Le. "These are all the hard work of our family. Go back and collect them first. Pick out the important ones and hand them over as needed."

Su Le solemnly put it in his bag. "Okay, I understand."
