"It's getting colder now, and my hair is getting shorter. It's almost time to go to bed. Sit for a while, I'll go get some hot water for you to soak your feet."
놛 was boiling water in the kitchen when he heard Xie Li scolding the children in the house.
"How can you be so stupid? You can't even do this."
Hongxia was howling in the room, her voice was very low, as if she was crying.
"Twenty, you only got twenty and you still have the nerve to cry, shut up."
Um?
What the hell is a test with a score of 20?
Xie Linan stuffed the firewood into the stove and threw away the fire tongs. "I'll go take a look."
Ye Xiaozhen tested the water temperature and felt that the firewood was almost done burning, so she followed suit.
Hongxia was holding a twenty-point test paper with tears in her eyes, while Xie Li was scolding her with red ears.
Xie Linan brought Hongxia over and whispered a few words to her. Then he said to Xie Li, "What's the point of scolding her? She doesn't know how to do it. You can teach her slowly."
"She has to understand it. She doesn't understand even if I say half of it."
"She's not stupid, why can't she understand?"
"Ask her if she understands." Xie Li said unhappily.
Xie Linan said: "I won't ask her. If she doesn't understand, then it must be because you didn't explain it clearly."
Xie Li: “…”
"Look at her, she's crying like this, how can she understand what you say? How can you be a mother? Come on, Hongxia, stop her from talking, let your uncle explain the topic to you."
놛 took Hongxia and went out.
Xie Li's expression was quite speechless. "I can't do it? I'm a junior high school graduate after all, can't I do the Level 2 questions?"
Ye Xiaozhen saw that she was very angry. She was teaching her child, but ended up being scolded by her younger brother. It would be strange if she wasn't angry.
She comforted her by saying, "You just have such a bad temper."
"How much has she invested in raising this child, and yet I am not a good mother. She only got 20 points in the exam, which really pissed me off. She only got 70 or 10 points in the school in the mountains, and I don't know how she got 20 points."
Just as Xie Li finished feeling wronged, she heard Xie Linan's voice coming from outside the house.
"Don't you know what the conditions are like in the schools in the mountains? It's normal that she can't keep up. This is her first exam, so if she doesn't do well, then she won't do well."
"Hey, listen..."
Ye Xiaozhen hurriedly comforted him, "Whoever teaches the child is angry. If you want to teach, let me teach. Sister, I will make clothes with you."
She quickly drew her attention to her clothes.
An hour later, Xie Li had finished sewing a pair of pants, and Hongxia also came back with her homework.
She looks quite happy.
Xie Li asked, "Are you done?"
"Yeah, it's done."
"Did your uncle speak well?"
Hongxia nodded, "Okay, Uncle 꺶 even signed for me."
Next to her twenty-eighth birthday card is Xie Linan’s name.
Xie Li smiled at Ye Xiaozhen and said, "I didn't expect that there are really two of you."
After saying that, he told Hongxia to quickly put away her schoolbag.
It was getting late, so Ye Xiaozhen planned to soak her feet and then go back to her room to sleep.
Xie Linan had already poured the water, helped her soak her feet, and then carried her to the bed.
Seeing how considerate she was, Ye Xiaozhen smiled and said, "When our children start to study in the future, I will leave the homework tutoring to you."
Xie Linan's mouth twitched wildly, and then he said with a slightly unnatural look, "There are teachers to teach you, why do you need me?"
"If you can't rely on teachers, parents have to help. Anyway, I can't do it. I scored more than ten points on the exam, and I'm not as good as Hongxia."
"Hey, hey, let's talk about it later."
"What's wrong? Are you having trouble teaching Hongxia to do the exercises?"
"Ah? No, no."
"That's what I said. Hongxia said you taught well. Sister 꺶 said you have something else to do, so Hongxia will be handed over to you from now on."
In November, I broke out in cold sweat.
Ye Xiaozhen smiled faintly and said nothing, seeing through everything but not saying it out loud.
Let’s say that the kid who scored 20 in the exam must be the kind of person who has no talent at all.
Do you think you can help a kid like this with his homework without him going crazy?
Humph, let's see how strong you can be.
After pouring out the water for washing feet, he hugged Ye Xiaozhen and curled up in the quilt and said, "Oh, it's really not easy to raise a child, especially a little girl. If Lin Xiao and Lin Qi write that word like a ghost painting, I will punch them twice.
As for Hongxia, I haven't even started talking yet, but as soon as she saw that my expression was not right, she started to feel wronged and started to cry. She didn't cry out loud, but just stared at me and cried. Tell me, should I still scold her?"
Xie Linan couldn't help sighing, "After explaining the problem to her for an hour, I felt like I had lost all my temper."
It's rare that you can hold it in.
Xie Linan touched Ye Xiaozhen's belly and said, "Do you think these three babies in our family are boys or girls?"
"What?"
"If it's a boy, we can teach him ourselves. If it's a girl, we can spend more money to hire a teacher. Every profession has its own expertise, and teachers should do their job."
Ye Xiaozhen smiled and said, "Then you won't say Sister Xiao is mean to the child?"
"Fortunately, fortunately, Sister 꺶 didn't hit me."
Ye Xiaozhen: “…”
"Hongxia's... problem is a little bit rude. No wonder I'm angry."
"Didn't you say that the mountains are different and she couldn't adapt?"
"Okay, let's see first, and then think of a solution if it doesn't work. This time is different from when we were young. If you don't have culture, you will suffer in the future."
놛's thinking is still very progressive. He hugged Ye Xiaozhen and told her many of his predictions about the future.
For example, if the economy develops rapidly in the future and farming is no longer profitable, young people will move to the city.
The more you read, the more opportunities you will have.
The country has a large population, so we need to implement family planning.
The more people there are, the more houses they will need. If we take good care of the houses, we will make more money.
The next day, Ye Xiaozhen and Xie Li peeled persimmons together, and grandpa helped them tie the peeled persimmons into a string and then hung them on the eaves to dry.
Thank you Lin An for coming back this evening and bringing back a book.
After dinner, I went back to my room to read very seriously.
Ye Xiaozhen was curious and stretched her neck to take a look.
Um?
She thought that 놛 was reading a book about architecture, but she didn't expect that 놛 was actually reading a book about obstetrics and gynecology.
"Why are you looking at this?"
Xie Linan looked up at her in surprise, "Do you know what book this is?"
"Um."
"Do you understand?"
"Your book is full of common sense. Even though I'm not studying this field, I can still understand it."
"What?" Xie Linan was confused.
Ye Xiaozhen said, "I told you in the woods. I had a dream about all that. I learned a lot in the dream, so I can understand it."
Xie Linan: "Are you telling the truth?"
Ye Xiaozhen: "..." What do you mean? You don't think I'm just making up excuses to lie to you, do you?
"Of course, you don't think I'm only at the level of a primary school student, do you? Let me tell you, in my dream I graduated from graduate school."
Now it was Xie Lin'an's turn to be shocked.
놛 pushed the book towards Ye Xiaozhen and said, "Then tell me what this is."
