Has Yi Zhonghai reformed his ways?
Zhang Dongmei was very pleased; everything had improved since she became pregnant. How wonderful!
Little did they know that Zheng Ya sensed their situation and felt uneasy. Could you believe that the Moral Celestial Venerable could change his nature?
Seeing that his expression was off as he fed Bao'er, Xu Qi mistakenly thought he thought she was too rough and said in a panic, "Husband, did I go too far?"
"Hmm, that's not true at all. My wife did the right thing. We should establish a persona for them and plant seeds of fear and positive energy in their minds. It will be good for our child." Zheng Ya came back to her senses and praised her. She had wanted to do this for a long time.
However, if a grown man acts too violently and rudely, he becomes like Sha Zhu, the main character in the drama that everyone in the courtyard watches.
In traditional Chinese opera, there are good and bad protagonists, as well as sycophants who suffer injustice to the point of death, like Sha Zhu, who only earns the ridicule of the audience.
To pity someone is foolish; they're missing a screw in their head.
After all, Sha Zhu isn't stupid or dumb. Why was he hung up for a lifetime, drained of his lifeblood until he was no longer useful, and then abandoned and fed to wild dogs?
It proves the saying: You can never wake someone who is pretending to be asleep.
There might only be one way to save Sha Zhu. Based on Qin Huairu's shameless behavior today, Zheng Ya is preparing to serve them the real deal!
The main character needs to be given plenty of support and encouragement to make the story truly engaging.
Xu Qi sensed something was off about his expression and frowned, saying, "Honey, is something on your mind? You really didn't underestimate my performance?"
"Silly wife, I value you so much, what good would it do me to look down on you? Aren't you silly?" Zheng Ya realized what she meant, reached out with his chopsticks to pick up a corncob from the clay pot, put it in Bao'er's bowl, and winked at her.
Bao'er followed his gaze, her eyes lit up, and she struggled to get down, shouting, "Daddy, corn on the cob, I want to eat it, I want to eat it myself?"
"Haha, then go eat by yourself. Eat slowly, don't burn your mouth. Blow on it before you eat, be careful not to burn yourself," Zheng Ya put Bao'er down and instructed her.
Gentle and considerate, seemingly genuine?
Xu Qi rested her chin on her hand, scrutinizing his expressions and actions as he cared for Bao'er. After giving her assessment, she said, "Honey, you like children that much?"
"Well, yes and no. I just like well-behaved and upright children. I wouldn't even blink if I had to humanely destroy a child whose heart has gone astray." Zheng Ya has lived three lives, the other two of which were as an orphan.
Almost all of them grew up in orphanages.
Growing up among children, I witnessed the mixed nature of them, both good and bad. I was bound by friendships and ties, but also suffered beatings and bullying, experiences that are etched in my memory.
Children whose minds are corrupted from a young age will never become good people.
A bad child often leads or persecutes a large group of children, and when they grow up, they cause even greater harm to society.
Having experienced this firsthand, Zheng Ya showed no kindness whatsoever towards bad kids.
The idea of sending juvenile delinquents to labor camps to reform them does have some effect, and it's effective for teenagers who still have a conscience.
For those mentally twisted teenagers, labor reform is just a way of playing the victim; once they regain their freedom, they will become even more wicked.
If it weren't for the rule of law restraining their evil deeds, the consequences would be unimaginable to most people.
Therefore, Zheng Ya didn't believe that bad kids could change their ways, which surprised Xu Qi: "Okay, you win."
Tell me, where did the fresh corn on the cob in the clay pot come from?
"Wife, it seems your teacher didn't teach you to be smart today?"
"Hurry up and eat. What are you asking if there's food to eat? At least eat your fill before you have the energy to talk, right?" Zheng Ya didn't want to explain.
Anyway, I've already mentioned catalytic ability, so use your imagination to fill in the blanks.
The wonders of the supernatural space cannot be revealed to anyone for the time being.
Xu Qi didn't ask any further questions, picked up her rice bowl and said, "Is it alright that you brought all this rice back from that courtyard house?"
"Yes, don't worry, these are all spoils I seized from bad guys. Three large courtyards and dozens of tons of grain and supplies haven't been dealt with yet." Zheng Ya didn't intend to hide this from her. She would find out sooner or later anyway, so it was better to tell her in advance.
However, since Bao'er was present, there were some keywords that couldn't be mentioned.
Be careful that Bao'er doesn't let it slip and cause trouble if outsiders hear it.
For example, the term "enemy agent" is extremely sensitive.
If you portray enemy agents as bad guys, then everything will be fine.
Xu Qi understood and, shocked, put down her rice bowl and asked, "When did you seize it?"
"What are you planning to do with all those supplies?"
"Hmm, just say what you want to say, don't keep it to yourself, aren't you tired of it?" Zheng Ya didn't answer directly, but he could tell that there was something more to her words!
Xu Qi said awkwardly, "I just felt I owed Xu Family Village a favor. They're currently experiencing a famine, and without my income as a hunter, people in the village might starve to death this year. I thought I'd help them out."
"Well, that's possible, but not free. Do you understand what I mean?" Zheng Ya didn't want to cause trouble by doing good deeds.
If it weren't for the trouble, I would have donated dozens of tons of supplies to the comrades in the street office long ago, and distributed them to the people who need them most to help in emergencies rather than to alleviate poverty.
However, doing so will attract the attention of those with ulterior motives.
Before you've built up your network, it's best not to overdo it and risk getting into trouble.
Besides, those were enemy supplies, which were also needed to keep the enemy agents occupied and lure them into coming to retrieve them when they were short of supplies, thus falling into Zheng Ya's trap.
Even if Zheng Ya wasn't there watching over things every day, the entrapment operation would just be a formality.
Don't forget that Zheng Ya possesses three special abilities. As long as the enemy agents leave traces in those three courtyards and transport away supplies, Zheng Ya can follow the clues and wipe out the enemy agents in one fell swoop.
You might say, "Didn't enemy agents come knocking on our door?"
However, that enemy agent did not leave with any supplies; he was merely a spies and messengers on the periphery. Following him would be of little use and could even alert the enemy, making it a losing proposition.
If the other party is transporting supplies, they will likely go directly to another of their hideouts, which is Zheng Ya's destination for entrapment.
Xu Qi said happily, "Yes, you did the right thing. These days, giving away food and supplies for free will only bring endless trouble."
Selling them food at a normal price is enough to save their lives!
"It's good that you understand, let's eat!" Zheng Ya didn't want to talk about these things in front of Bao'er.
Bao'er munched on a corncob, her mouth dripping with oil.
Xu Qi thought Zheng Ya was a spendthrift. These days, who would put corn on the cob in meat stew? It's such a waste to let the corn cob absorb all the broth.
Little did they know that Zheng Ya was reading in his special ability space while eating, training himself to multitask, and had discovered a new world.
The soul, spirit, and will flip through books in the supernatural space, like a scanner, turning each page and scanning it, imprinting it all in the memory, never forgetting a single page.
Cheating!
Before he had even finished a meal, Zheng Ya had already read nearly a hundred volumes of books. Can you believe it?
