Chapter 21 Transmigrated as a Little Bitter Gourd 21
Before Ji Huaizhi could say anything, the two of them were stopped by someone.
"Dad! Where have you been all this time?" Ji Dong stepped forward: "We couldn't get in touch with you and thought something had happened."
"Are you cursing me?" Old Master Ji was instantly displeased.
"Why didn't you call the police if something happened to me? You say nice things, but you actually wish I were dead."
He is very disappointed in his son now.
His grandson also has a lot of opinions about him now, and he doesn't want this unfilial son to affect his grandson.
"Why do you say that?" Ji Dong's tone was not firm.
"You guys should have calmed down by now, right? Why don't you move back during the holidays?" Ji Dong said earnestly, "Do you really think I don't care about you?"
"I've also inquired about your situation."
"Tang Juan and I had an incident before, which has only recently come to an end."
Grandpa Ji waved his hand, not wanting to listen to his nonsense, and pulled Ji Huaizhi towards the school gate:
"Do you think I'm a child? That you can fool me?"
"My son and I won't go to your house and cause you any trouble."
"Dad!" Ji Dong called out.
Unexpectedly, they refused outright. He looked at Ji Huaizhi, who was being led by the old man:
“Huaizhi, you should try to persuade your grandfather. Your parents have neglected you in the past. Please talk to your grandfather.”
"Haven't you missed your mom and dad for so long?"
Ji Huaizhi ignored him completely and didn't even turn around.
It was as if they didn't know them at all.
Tang Juan frowned and called out, "Dad!"
"Huaizhi is your grandson, and Xianli is your grandson too. The child is young and doesn't understand, but you're so old, do you still have to make a fuss with him?"
Old Master Ji turned around with a dark face: "Who's arguing with you? I don't think you even know what's wrong with you."
"Stop loitering around in front of us."
The two quickened their pace and headed back.
He has no desire to go back and face their disapproval now.
He's very comfortable in his rented apartment now, and he can even make money by setting up his own stall.
Before they moved out, he cooked all the meals and cleaned the house. Tang Juan would even ask the price of groceries, as if she was afraid he would try to make money off her.
He's so old now, he doesn't want to live as frustratingly as he used to.
“Grandpa, you did the right thing. If you went back, you would definitely suffer.” Ji Huaizhi looked up at him.
Grandpa Ji: "I'm such a grown man, what's there to be aggrieved about? I'm just worried that you'll suffer."
Ji Huaizhi turned around: "You're overthinking it. I won't tolerate your son and daughter-in-law."
"Hey, you brat!" Old Master Ji was speechless.
Tang Juan: "It seems your dad is doing quite well. He's enjoying a good life outside and doesn't want to go back."
"Let's go back." He thought his dad would readily agree and move back.
I didn't expect to be rejected.
After all, he's so old, and he didn't give him any money. I don't know how they manage to live.
“Grandpa sets up a stall at the school gate to sell potatoes,” Ji Xianli said.
"Heh~ No wonder he didn't want to go back, turns out he thought he could make money now."
Tang Juan scoffed, "How much can you earn by setting up a stall?"
Ji Dong frowned, and the three of them got into the car.
Tang Juan said as soon as she got on the bus:
"Son, when we get back, Mom will arrange tutoring for you. I'll take your phone away."
"If you get the lowest score again, your dad and I are really going to have to deal with you."
"No!" Ji Xianli refused without even thinking. "You want a son with good grades? Don't you already have one?"
I get so annoyed just thinking about Ji Huaizhi. What's with all the pretense?
"You won't?" Ji Dong sneered, "I don't care about anything else, you have to be better than Ji Huaizhi."
"If you can't compare to him, it will make your mom and me look like two idiots!"
"Did you hear me!" Ji Dong shouted.
Ji Xianli was so frightened that he trembled.
"You scared the child." Tang Juan frowned.
Then she turned to her son and said, "Your dad is right. Ji Huaizhi skipped a grade, so his foundation is definitely not solid. I'll enroll you in a tutoring class. You have to surpass him."

After Ji Huaizhi entered junior high school, the father and son moved again.
This time, we moved to a location near a top-tier high school.
This new neighborhood is much better than the old one. Looking around, the old man said with satisfaction:
"Why is this house so cheap? Is there something wrong with it?"
The man smiled and glanced at Ji Huaizhi standing to the side: "There won't be any problems, old man. The owner of this house also has a child who goes to school here."
"Then his child got into a top high school, and he was so happy that he thought of renting out the house at a low price."
"Let others share in the joy. They are all kind people and don't need this house, which is why the price is so low."
"Such a good thing." The old man looked at the balcony again: "That's great."
"The main reason is that the children who lived here before got into top high schools, and I hope my grandson can be just as successful."
"Alright!" the old man decided. "This is it."
After the two moved in, the old man started thinking about setting up a stall again.
“Sure, there’s a food street nearby with a lot of foot traffic, you can set up your stall there too,” Ji Huaizhi said.
"That's wonderful, Huaizhi. Look, there are still many good people in this world," the old man exclaimed.
After coming to the city, apart from being mistreated by his son, the old man truly felt that there were many good people in the world and that he was always very lucky.
"You must study hard, only through studying can you have a bright future."
Ji Huaizhi: "Selling potato pancakes can also be a success."
"Hahahaha, if you sell potato pancakes, Grandpa will peel potatoes for you."
From the moment Ji Huaizhi entered the school, the teachers paid close attention to him.
The main reason is that he is two years younger than his classmates, and everyone knows that he skipped a grade to get into the university, so they pay special attention to him.
That's why, when Ji Huaizhi brought up skipping grades again, the teachers had a feeling that they knew it was true.
The main reason is that he performed too well at school.
The homeroom teacher noticed that he had absolutely no interest in the first-year junior high courses, so he found some second- and third-year junior high test papers for him to try, and to his surprise, he was able to answer them all correctly.
When asked how he learned it, he said the same thing: he taught himself.
People attributed it to his intelligence.
This time, he skipped directly to the third year of junior high school.
When Grandpa found out, he didn't have any other thoughts. He just thought that he would have to move again after living here for another year.
However, Ji Huaizhi said he wouldn't move. He would let his grandfather continue to live here after he got into high school, and he would continue to set up his stall in the vicinity.
After high school, Ji Huaizhi stopped skipping grades.
The teachers at school were exceptionally lenient with him, and because he was young, his classmates treated him like a younger brother.
He's still running his gaming business, but he finds customers online.
I have never run a business in class.
After the winter vacation started, he and his grandfather stayed in the city for a while before returning to their hometown near the Chinese New Year. The main reason was that his grandfather was now addicted to setting up a stall, and he felt uneasy if he didn't do it for a day.
The uncle-in-law still came to pick them up where they got off the bus.
The further the car drove into the mountains, the colder it felt, and we could see some snow.
Before I even got home, my aunt had already started stewing chicken on the stove.
"You're back? It's much colder in the mountains than in the city." Auntie's face was slightly flushed, and she still spoke in her usual loud voice.
"It's not cold." Ji Huaizhi put down his things after coming in: "These are all things that my grandfather and I brought for you."
"What's there to bring? Keep the money for yourselves," Ji Yun said, frowning.
"I'm rich, Auntie. I'm in high school now." Ji Huaizhi had regained some of his childlike qualities, looking as if he was seeking praise.
"High school? Shouldn't you be in junior high? Did you skip a grade again?" Ji Yun said happily.
"Yes, I didn't skip any more classes after that, and I went to a top-tier high school."
"Wow, you've really made something of yourself." Ji Yun looked at her children, who were rummaging through the things Ji Huaizhi had put down. "Look how successful your older brother is! You should learn from him in the future!"
Seeing that they ignored her, Ji Yun spanked the two kids' bottoms: "Did you hear me?"
"Mom! How could you spank a man like me?"
"That's right, men and women shouldn't touch each other!"
