Fang Linxiao was somewhat worried, so much so that even when the delicious food was served, he had little appetite.
Zhuang Xun adapted well. After taking a couple of bites of the fish, he was somewhat surprised and said, "This fish is quite delicious, it lives up to its reputation."
Xianshui County has a well-developed water system and a thriving aquaculture industry. In recent years, Xianshui fish has gained fame, gradually making people aware of this small town in southern China.
Mingzhuo: "I had the Fairy Water Fish at Yazheng Manor Private Kitchen before, but it wasn't as authentic as the one here."
Upon hearing this, He Wangyao and Pei Di quickly picked up their chopsticks and took a few more bites.
Li Wenhe was convinced; these two were incredibly carefree, only knowing how to indulge in eating and drinking with Ming Zhuo.
He gently put down his chopsticks and said calmly, "Teacher Ruan, aren't you going to say anything? Everyone's here, and you haven't given us any hints."
This is the students' assessment task, not the teacher's. Shen Boyuan made a mistake: as a teaching assistant, he didn't need to be so proactive in taking the lead.
If teachers interfere too much, it will affect the students' independence and will result in points being deducted.
As a teacher, Mingzhuo could of course not be in a hurry, but Li Wenhe could not help but be in a hurry.
He wanted to get good grades.
Fang Linxiao looked at Ming Zhuo expectantly; this was exactly what he had been waiting for!
Mingzhuo continued eating the fish: "Let's eat first, then we'll talk. Oh, right, just a reminder."
She paused for a moment, then smiled. "Eat as much as you can while you still have food. Who knows if you'll be able to eat a normal meal next time?"
Fang Linxiao laughed and said, "Teacher Ruan, you're joking. Is there anything unusual about the food?"
Li Wenhe picked up his chopsticks, lowered his head to eat, took a few bites, then looked up and said calmly, "She never jokes."
Fang Linxiao paused for a moment, feeling inexplicably uneasy, and quickly picked up his chopsticks to eat.
He ate the meal without tasting it. As soon as he finished, he went outside for a walk and soon returned to Mingzhuo's side.
"Teacher Ruan, I've checked the neighboring shops, and they all seem fine."
Moreover, every household has a pond in its yard, where several live fish are kept, and tourists come and go from the houses.
Mingzhu blinked: "You're right, there's definitely no problem."
Fang Linxiao: "..."
So what exactly is the problem?
He was deep in thought when he walked to the backyard. A small light truck was parked at the backyard gate, and a woman was carrying a large bucket full of live fish.
Seeing the woman struggling to carry the bucket, he quickly went over to lend a hand. Just as he put the bucket down, a jet of water hit his back, instantly giving him a chilling sensation.
The woman quickly exclaimed "Oh dear!" and reached out her rough hands to pat the water droplets off his clothes, her expression somewhat embarrassed.
"I'm so sorry, my son is young and doesn't understand. He's just being stubborn with me, he didn't mean to target you. Please don't take it to heart."
When Fang Linxiao heard that it was just a child making a fuss, what could he say?
He glanced at the driver's seat, where a man's profile was visible; the child had probably done something wrong and was hiding.
I was in a hurry to get to the mission location, so I could only say it was okay.
Mingzhuo casually asked, "How old is your son?"
The woman didn't answer Mingzhuo's question, but just smiled at Fang Linxiao and thanked him a few times, expressing her warm and sincere gratitude.
Fang Linxiao felt a little guilty and uncomfortable. He took two steps back and wanted to call Ming Zhuo to leave, but saw Ming Zhuo take two steps forward and suddenly pull open the driver's side door.
The young man on the bus said angrily, "What are you doing!"
Fang Linxiao was about to apologize when he suddenly remembered something, glanced into the car, and saw only a young man inside. Where was the child?
Mingzhuo laughed and said, "Is this your young and ignorant son? This is a giant baby who's almost 300 months old."
The woman immediately became displeased: "How dare you talk like that? What's it to you? Don't you know any manners?"
Mingzhuo: "I don't understand. I'm not even eighteen yet. My mom says that in front of adults, I'm still a child."
The woman choked for a moment and couldn't speak for a long time.
Fang Linxiao snapped out of his daze, his face turning ashen. Cultivators can read bone structures, and the young man in the car was at least in his twenties. This guy was a kid?
Whose child weighs 180 pounds?
"This is none of my business, why are you hitting me with a water gun?"
The woman was surprised: "I already apologized, and you forgave me. How about I wipe it off for you again? I only added a little water, it'll dry quickly, and it's not cold, what could possibly happen?"
The young man on the bus remained unmoved, curling his lip in disdain. "Sick."
Then he took out his phone and skillfully played games, which shows that he doesn't have any mental problems.
Fang Linxiao was furious. How could this mother and son be so self-righteous?
"Sister Hong! Sister Hong!" The proprietress called out from the backyard, "Is there something wrong with this fish?"
The woman immediately lost her patience. "My son is spoiled at home. He doesn't have any bad intentions. Why are you being so petty? I'll apologize to you again, okay?"
After saying that, he turned around and hurriedly went to the backyard.
The young man in the car glanced at the two men provocatively through the car window, looking smug. "Come and hit me if you dare."
Mingzhuo is someone who can't stand being provoked. She held up one finger and said, "Fine, you just wait."
The young man didn't take it seriously. He hadn't been on guard before, but now that he had locked the car doors, what could those two do to him?
He lowered his head and continued playing the game. After a while, he felt his vision blur for a moment, rubbed his eyes, and was about to continue when...
"A ghost!! Mom! Mom!" the young man suddenly yelled, throwing his phone away.
