Listening to Granny Qin talking about the young ladies from wealthy families who could read, play the piano, play chess, and paint, Nini and Xiaohua were filled with envy.
"Grandma, can girls also read?" Nini asked in confusion. She had never seen any woman in the village who could read.
Granny Qin was stunned and realized that she had gone a bit too far. There were very few boys in the village who could go to school, let alone girls.
Gently touching Nini's little head, Granny Qin said with certainty: "Of course, girls can be very powerful if they study hard."
Xiaohua also knew that she would be very successful if she studied hard. The accountants in the town earned a lot of money every month. She heard about this when her mother took her to the town.
It’s a pity that she can’t study: “Our family wants to send brother Xiaojun to the village school, so Xiaohua can’t become very powerful.”
Nini also lowered her head, and her star-like eyes seemed to have lost a layer of luster.
Granny Qin was also a little sad. People in the world favor boys over girls and require women to be virtuous without being talented. There are very few women who can really read!
Tian An hated this kind of scene and encouraged her, "It doesn't matter if you can't go to the village school! Xiaohua can wait for your brother Xiaojun to finish school and teach you! The same goes for Nini. You can wait for your brother to learn and teach you!"
Hearing this, the two little girls' eyes lit up and they looked up at their brother hopefully.
Xiaojun and Dajun were stunned for a moment, then nodded immediately: "No problem, brother will definitely study hard, and when brother has mastered it, he will come back to teach you."
Dajun knew that his brother also wanted to go to school, so he turned to Dashu and said, "Brother, I will study hard and teach you when I come back. I will also teach you, my big brother. When we all learn to read, we will all become very powerful."
Dashu wanted to say, how could studying be such an easy thing? However, seeing his younger brother's determined look, Dashu couldn't bear to pour cold water on him.
"Then you have to study hard!"
Xiaofeng also touched Xiaojun's head and said, "Brother is relying on you!"
Xiaojun and Dajun suddenly felt that they had become important, and there seemed to be some weight on their shoulders.
While they were talking, the osmanthus steamed cake had been steamed and Chunxi had cut it into small pieces and brought it to them on a plate.
Nini took a bite of the steamed cake and squinted her eyes and said, "Sister An An is so amazing! I must become someone as amazing as you in the future."
Xiaohua also agreed: "Yeah! I want one too, I want one too. When I become as good as Sister An An, I can make such delicious osmanthus cake for Mom and Dad."
Speaking of their parents, the little ones became happy again, telling each other how good their parents were to them.
After eating the steamed cake, it was getting late, so Xiaofeng and the other two said goodbye and went back with their younger brothers and sisters.
I don’t know why, but after going to bed tonight, Tian An always felt irritable. He was obviously very sleepy, but he tossed and turned and couldn’t fall asleep.
Oh! How annoying! Tian An pulled back the quilt, grabbed a coat and wrapped it around her before getting out of bed. She didn't know what she was going to do, but she was annoyed by the sight of the bed.
I walked aimlessly into the yard, looking at the chrysanthemums, then at the newly built earthen oven. Then I looked at the moon in the sky, which was still missing a corner, and was stunned for a while.
Suddenly I felt that I was really bored! She was probably the only one who couldn't sleep at night and got up to stare at the moon in a daze!
Just as I was about to go back to sleep, I turned around and saw Zhao Yiming sitting on the roof.
...After her, the second person who was bored in the middle of the night climbed onto the roof and stared at the moon in a daze.
Tian An was about to call him, but saw him making a gesture to silence him.
She looked around. Fortunately, Zhao Yiming reminded her in time, otherwise, if she howled, everyone in the yard would probably wake up, which would be embarrassing.
Just as she was thinking about it, she saw Zhao Yiming stand up, turn around, and descend from the roof to the ground and stand in front of her.
Tian An was stunned by Zhao Yiming's skill: "Is this the legendary Qinggong?" He thought to himself and asked.
Zhao Yiming was stunned: "What Qinggong?"
"It means being as light as a swallow, climbing over eaves and walls, leaving no footprints on the snow, crossing the lake like a dragonfly skimming the water, and even flying very high and far in a flash!" Tian An explained with his hands and feet dancing.
Zhao Yiming thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "You're exaggerating. As far as I know, the best Kung Fu practitioners are only better at running, jumping, and dodging than the average person.
Furthermore, one can stand or move on objects that cannot bear weight, or even use luck and energy to lift himself into the air using light objects.
You're talking about something a god would do, right? Crossing the lake! It's good enough to be able to use the floating objects on the lake to get a short distance."
Okay! Maybe because he's read too many martial arts novels, Tian An no longer worries.
"What were you doing up there just now?!"
Before Zhao Yiming could answer, he continued, "Didn't you see the ladder? You flew up there!"
Then she stared at him with her two big, shining eyes, and her meaning was very clear: she also wanted to fly up.
Zhao Yiming had no choice but to put his arm around her shoulders, bend down, hold her feet with his other hand, and then pick her up sideways.
Then, with a run-up and two attempts at gaining momentum, they finally reached the roof. However, their foot slipped as they landed, and they both nearly fell off the roof. Tian An's heart was in his throat with fear. Fortunately, they escaped unharmed.
The first time he took someone to the roof, he almost made them fall. Zhao Yiming was a little embarrassed. After putting Tian An down, he touched the tip of his nose and said embarrassedly: "An An, have you gained weight recently?"
It must be because this girl is fat that he performed poorly.
In the past few months since we separated from our family, she has been eating well and being well cared for. She has grown taller and gained weight, and her weight is definitely a lot heavier than it was at the beginning.
But knowing is one thing, but there is no way she would admit that she has gained weight.
He patted Zhao Yiming's shoulder seriously and said, "Brother Yiming, it seems that your kung fu is not yet perfect! You need to work harder!" Then he found a place to sit down.
Seeing that Zhao Yiming was still observing whether she had really gained weight, Tian An quickly interrupted him: "Brother Yiming, why are you still sitting on the roof so late at night?"
Zhao Yiming was indeed diverted from the topic. He found a seat next to Tian An and looked at the missing moon in the sky. "People have joys and sorrows, separations and reunions, just as the moon waxes and wanes."
Tian An understood that he was missing his parents. No wonder Dashu and Xiaofeng's sister-in-law felt that he was in a bad mood when they talked about their parents earlier.
Tian An has been an orphan since childhood and has never felt the love of his parents. After he traveled through time, his father and mother were no longer around, so he had long been used to it.
But Zhao Yiming has lived with his parents since he was a child, so it is difficult for him to accept the sudden changes. It is also inevitable that he feels sad as the Mid-Autumn Festival, a family reunion festival, is approaching.
Looking at the missing moon in the sky, Tian An felt helpless! She didn't know how to comfort people!
I could only pat his shoulder and say, "Brother Danniu, you can lean on my shoulder from now on!"
