It was exam day for the four children in my family. Usually they were small tests, but today was a big one.
Si Yueyue got up early in the morning and prepared a pre-exam ceremony for the four children, giving each of them a sausage she made herself and two small eggs.
An An Le was delighted to see the novel breakfast, and curiously turned to look at her mother: "Mom, today we have two fried eggs."
"Yes, this sausage is 1, and two fried eggs are 0, so this is 100."
"Mom is doing a pre-exam ritual for An An Le Le and my brothers. I wish you all good luck on the exam and get 100 points."
Lele asked doubtfully: "Mom, if I eat 100, can I get 100 points on the test?"
"No, whether we can get 100 points in the exam depends on whether we study hard, whether we have learned it, whether we have checked it in the exam, etc."
"So, if you eat 100, it doesn't mean you will get 100 points on the test."
"If eating 100 grams won't get you 100 points on the test, why should you eat?"
An An looked at why his younger brother came online and quickly extended his chopsticks to his fried eggs.
"Brother, don't you want to eat so many fried eggs? I can help you eat them."
Seeing this, Lele quickly covered the plate with his hands, then looked at his brother and said, "Lele doesn't want to eat. Lele wants to eat 100 pieces, not a single piece less."
"Then eat quickly, brother. Otherwise, when brother is done, you will have to eat Lele's."
"But if my brother eats it, there will be an extra 0, so it won't be 100 points anymore."
"It doesn't matter. One more zero equals 1000 points, which is better than 100 points."
Lele was stunned when he heard this. Is this true?
Si Yueyue and Lei Zhen glanced at the children, then smiled and shook their heads: "It's too late, hurry up and eat breakfast, or you'll be late."
"Yeah, I understand."
After breakfast, the children rushed to school to complete today's exams.
A few days later, the test results came out, and An An Lele and Lin Xuhui got full marks just as Si Yueyue had wished.
Lin Xuhui was not bad either. Although he had to study a lot, he still ranked among the top three in the class.
After the exams, the school gave the children a holiday. During the first few days of the holiday, the four children followed Zhao's mother to go hiking and swimming.
Either she went to the mountains to pick wild vegetables, or she went to the beach to catch seafood. Every day, Old Lady Zhao looked at the bowls full of food and smiled so much that wrinkles appeared at the corners of her eyes.
"Grandma, how much kelp should we send to Grandpa?"
"Well...when you want to eat here, you can try your luck at the beach, but that's not the case back home."
"When I came here after the Chinese New Year, grandma saw that there wasn't much left at home. After we ate it, it would be gone, so she planned to send most of it."
"Yes, then grandma will send some more, and we will go to the beach to pick up new ones later."
After a while, An An looked at her grandmother and said, "Grandma, I need to send you some dried shrimps."
"Oh, yes, grandma almost forgot, I'll pack it up and put it together later..."
After the five generations of grandparents and grandchildren finished packing the things to be sent back to their hometown, they each started to do their own things while Mother Zhao went to cook.
The younger ones went to study for a while, and then went to play with toys together.
…
In the evening, after dinner, while sitting in the living room and chatting, Si Yueyue told her family about her idea of going to Hai City.
Mrs. Zhao frowned: "You go by yourself?"
