Chapter 216 Little Brat
A child's future is always a parent's biggest concern.
In the end, not only did Sister Zhang get a keyboard rubbing, but Sister Li also got one.
Both of them planned to go home and have their children start learning so they could find jobs in the future.
After they left, Lu's mother hesitantly asked Jiang Jiani if she could teach her how to use a computer.
Jiang Jianni asked in bewilderment, "Mom, you're retired, why are you learning this?"
Lu's mother: "Haven't you heard the saying 'one is never too old to learn'?"
"Besides, didn't you say before that with the internet, you could know everything happening in the world just by sitting in front of a computer?"
"I want to see how that network works, how it can know everything happening in the world."
Computers are too expensive.
Even though the car we have at home was a second-hand one from Lu Xiangyang's friend, it still cost us over 20,000 yuan.
Lu's mother was shocked just by hearing the price.
All the appliances in their house combined aren't as expensive as this computer.
This thing is old, and it's still more expensive than a house.
Even knowing that this thing was for use, Lu's mother resolutely refused to touch it.
I'm afraid that if I accidentally break it, I'll have nowhere to cry.
But Jiang Jianni said that this thing will become more common in the future.
They say that things that cost 50,000 or 60,000 yuan now will only cost a few thousand yuan in a few years.
The difference between 50,000 or 60,000 and 5,000 or 6,000 is enormous, and Lu's mother suddenly thought she should learn it too.
Jiang Jianni suddenly became interested: "Mom, can I teach you how to use a computer?"
Not only will it teach you how to use the internet, it will also teach you how to play games!
Speaking of games, Jiang Jianni immediately thought of the popular games of today.
Since they weren't available locally, she asked Jiang Haiyang to help her buy some game discs.
Jiang Haiyang himself is also interested in games, not to play them, but to know how they are made.
But computer labs are too expensive, while school labs are cheaper, but school labs don't install games.
Jiang Jiani asked him to buy the game, which solved his immediate problem.
So during the summer vacation, Jiang Haiyang brought back about ten game discs.
Jiang Jianni was dazzled by the sheer number of games: "Buying one or two games would have been enough, why did you buy so many all at once?"
Jiang Haiyang: "The kind you're talking about is the genuine version. Genuine games are very expensive, there's no need to spend that money."
"I went to the computer room specifically to have the owner copy these. There are more than twenty games on each disc, and these two hundred games are all the most popular ones right now, the owner said."
"I'll install it on your computer, you can play whichever game you want."
Jiang Jianni looked at Jiang Haiyang busy with something, her expression complicated: "Tell me the truth, you actually wanted to play, right?"
She never imagined that she would have so many games installed on her computer.
Even when she was playing games the most, she only had four or five games installed on her computer at most.
Jiang Haiyang chuckled: "Sis, if you see through something, don't say it out loud."
Jiang Jianni raised her hand to hit him, and Jiang Haiyang covered his head and ran away, quickly explaining, "No, sis, let me explain..."
Then he shared his thoughts: "...But I don't know much about the game industry right now, so I want to figure out how these games work first. Once I understand how these games work, I can make games myself."
Jiang Jianni: "...Your ideals are quite lofty."
Jiang Haiyang chuckled.
The game was installed on the computer, and it was no longer just Jiang Jiani's possession.
After playing Super Mario, she taught Lu's mother how to play the game.
Lu's mother was very confused: "Isn't Mary a man? Why did she have a woman's name?"
Jiang Jianni: "Uh..."
Can she say she doesn't know either?
By her time, Super Mario was long outdated; only the modified versions of Super Mario occasionally managed to make a comeback.
So she really didn't know why the plumber would be called Mary.
While complaining, Lu's mother was having a great time.
Within a few days, even Lu's father was attracted to these games.
Unlike Lu's mother, who enjoys playing action games like Super Mario, Lu's father, a former soldier, prefers shooting games.
Lu Xiangyang has completely lost touch with computers now, and he's full of resentment: "I'll get rid of all these games later."
"Computers are for learning, what's the point of making these games?"
Jiang Jianni felt guilty: "Well, Mom gets really bored watching the kids all day. I just wanted to make things less boring for her."
"Besides, Mom plays quite restrainedly; she only plays for an hour a day at most."
Especially after she mentioned that staring at a computer for long periods of time is bad for the eyes.
The two elderly people are very good at controlling their gaming time.
Once I've played with it for an hour, I'll never touch it again.
Lu's father has slightly less self-control; when playing shooting games, he always loses track of time.
But it's okay, Lu Ma is here.
If he plays for even a little too long, Lu's mom will just unplug the power cord—yes, Lu's mom has already learned to just unplug the power cord.
Lu Xiangyang: "..."
So what's so fun about this game?
He's played it before, so he doesn't understand why the old couple is so obsessed.
How can shooting in a computer compare to shooting at a target in real life?
Seeing that he was no longer asking questions, Jiang Jianni quickly handed him a child: "Don't just stand there, go and give them a bath."
I don't know what happened this summer.
Eight out of ten days are cloudy, and it rains two out of the week.
I never see the sun, and even though I shower every day, I always feel sticky.
The four children of the Lu family don't know what's wrong with them. The eldest, Lu Haiqiang, is already one year and one month old. He can walk, but he just likes to crawl.
If the older brother doesn't set a good example, his three younger siblings will follow suit.
The four children crawl around on the ground every day, like four caterpillars spreading their cocoons everywhere.
The key is that they can always find places that adults wouldn't think of to crawl into, and under the bed is their favorite spot.
I get covered in dust every day, and taking a shower every day feels like a waste of time.
Jiang Jianni's biggest headache is bathing her child every night.
Although Lu Haiqiang is only two months older than his three younger siblings, he has the demeanor of an older brother.
When my uncle takes me to bathe, I sit obediently in the water and let him bathe me, at most splashing the water a few times.
After washing up, I put on a vest, lay down on the bed, rolled around, and fell asleep.
Lu Dabao is not up to it.
As soon as the child was put into the water, he started kicking and slapping excitedly, making random "ah ah" noises.
As soon as he called out, Erbao also called out, breaking free from Jiang Jiani and scrambling to find his brother.
Jiang Jianni quickly reached out to grab him back, but she couldn't keep up with his speed and missed. She was so angry that her hand itched to grab him.
"That little rascal, oh dear, you better hold him tight..."
Before Lu Xiangyang could react, Erbao had already grabbed his older brother's hand and pulled him into the bathtub.
Lu Xiangyang quickly reached out to grab him, but the child was slippery, even more so when wet. Lu Xiangyang clearly grabbed him, but Erbao struggled for a moment and then slipped away.
Then he lay down on his back in the water.
Lu Xiangyang gritted his teeth: "That little brat..."
