Chapter 87 A Child

"Xiao Huwang, how's your training going?"

Ji Ruo pushed Hu Wang in a cart and walked slowly towards the park.

Now that the students have 'dispersed', there is no point for him to continue staying at the school gate. He might as well go back to the park to help clean up and practice his skills to brush up on his proficiency.

If you're lucky, you might even be able to get some extra progress toward "sincere praise from elders."

"Boss..." Hu Wang said hesitantly, "Is that school the best middle school in Yuncheng?"

Ji Ruo was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "What is the best? Strong students? Or strong teachers?"

"this……"

Ji Ruo continued, "Xiao Huwang, where is the best school in the world? Teachers teach and educate, students get along well with each other, study hard and make progress every day... a school that can help children grow healthily is a good school.

As the saying goes, the master leads you to the door, but the practice is up to you. If the atmosphere of a school makes you feel happy, then it is a good school."

Little Hu Wang said in a daze: "But, some schools have higher score requirements. Everyone says that the higher the score, the better the school. I heard that the No. 1 Middle School I just mentioned is the middle school with the highest score in the city..."

This is also the school that his parents want him to go to.

Xiao Huwang said silently in his heart, feeling a little depressed.

"Personally, I think it's wrong to judge a child's performance based on scores, at least not completely correct." Ji Ruo said, "Xiao Huwang, think about it, are all the children with good academic performance in your class good children?"

Hu Wang recalled carefully: "It seems... that's it."

"Right? Scores are just a means of screening to bring together motivated students. Although not all students with good grades are good kids, at least most of them are.

The more good students there are, the better the school will be.

Xiao Huwang, the quality of a school depends on whether the students in the school are excellent and happy. It has nothing to do with scores or grades.

"Do you want to go to No. 1 Middle School?" Ji Ruo suddenly asked.

"think!"

"Would you be happy if you could get into No. 1 Middle School?"

Little Hu Wang was a little confused when he heard this: "I... I don't know, but my parents want me to go..."

"Well, if you get into No. 1 Middle School, will your parents be happy?"

"I think so, right?"

"If Mom and Dad are happy, will you be happy?"

"Can."

"Then you have to work hard, little Hu Wang." Ji Ruo smiled and rubbed the boy's head: "Study hard, practice martial arts hard, and try to be a good child that your parents like. Don't let them worry, and don't let them down."

Hu Wang seemed to understand and nodded vigorously: "Yes! I will work hard and will not let Mom and Dad down!"

Under the guidance of the system teacher, Ji Ruo's mentality gradually became more and more pure.

He is like a big kid who never grows up.

Just be happy.

Now, this older kid with white hair is teaching the younger kid how to be a good kid.

Hu Wang is not a bad kid by nature, although his temper may be a little unpleasant sometimes, that's because he is still young, and what's more, something like that happened to his parents.

No one is born with knowledge, and everyone makes mistakes sometimes.

If you don't understand, you need to be taught.

…

Return to the park.

Ji Ruo did not see Liu Jinchun. It seemed that the aunt had gone off work, and now another gardener was busy in the park.

Ji Ruo didn't care. After all, he could improve his proficiency by helping with the work, so it didn't matter who he helped.

If they are not the same person, maybe the progress of [sincere praise from elders] can be increased.

The boy asked Xiao Huwang to practice boxing on the side, while Luo Xi went to have fun in the park.

Ji Ruo's Tai Chi is divided into 'training method' and 'fighting method', among which the 'training method' is mainly for self-cultivation and physical fitness, and has no lethality.

For little Hu Wang, learning the "training method" is enough. Internal martial arts can nourish the body, which is more suitable for a child of Hu Wang's age than practicing some other basic martial arts, and it will not leave any hidden injuries.

What Ji Ruo taught Hu Wang was a simplified version of the 24 Tai Chi postures.

And what Ji Ruo uses for cleaning is the complete Tai Chi. To trigger the special effects of sweeping the floor, the assistance of Qi meridians is needed. With Xiao Huwang's current level, he cannot learn it.

…

Time flies, and it's afternoon in a blink of an eye.

Ji Ruo's [Dual Sword and Sword] buff is still some distance away from reaching the second level.

The proficiency level of this buff is ridiculously high. Just to get the initial glimpse of it, you need 50,000 proficiency points.

Even if he finished processing a patch of grass in the park, he would only gain a few dozen or a hundred points of proficiency.

But think about it, beating grass with a stick actually increases Ji Ruo's proficiency in all sword-fighting skills, so it's understandable that it's a bit difficult to master.

After mowing a piece of lawn, Ji Ruo looked at the time.

"Auntie, I still have to set up my stall at the school gate, so I'll stop here for now."

"Oh, you still have to set up a stall." The auntie said with emotion: "You helped me a lot today. I don't know how to thank you."

"You're welcome, you're welcome." Ji Ruo said with a smile, "I had a lot of fun too."

"Play?" Auntie was stunned.

She looked down at the smooth lawn beneath her feet, recalling the happy look on Jiruo's face when he was swinging the small wooden stick and hitting the grass, and the pure smile on his face all the time, and suddenly she felt her mood improve.

"What a good kid."

Auntie said sincerely.

Therefore, the progress from [Sincere Praise from Elders] is increased by one again, and is currently (5/10).

The distance to obtaining the next stage of achievement rewards is getting closer and closer, and Ji Ruo can't help but start looking forward to the next achievement upgrade.

After finding Luo Xi and calling Hu Wang, Ji Ruo pushed the cart towards the school.

Passing by a grocery store, Ji Ruo remembered what Li Bindao had told him before, so he went to the store and bought a roll of plastic wrap.

"Come on, Rosie, I'll get you a glove."

"Meow~ (What are gloves?)" Luo Xi squatted on Ji Ruo's shoulder and asked curiously.

"That's right, something that can wrap your little paws." Ji Ruo said, using plastic wrap to make four small gloves for little Rosie, "This way, when you touch water, your fur won't get wet."

"Meow~ (Wow! So beautiful!)" Rosie raised her paws happily. Although the restrained feeling from her paws made her a little uncomfortable, this feeling was really fresh and interesting.

Hu Wang practiced Tai Chi for an entire afternoon and was exhausted.

Back at the gate of No. 1 Middle School, the child recalled what Ji Ruo had said to him before, and also thought of the time when Ji Ruo helped the gardener weed in the park and received praise from the gardener.

"Are schools where good children go to good schools?"

Little Huwang seemed to be thinking about something.

He looked at those high school students and suddenly felt that they were not so "annoying" after all.

He wants to be a good boy.

"Boss, let me help you."
