Chapter 1582 Even a Tigress is That Fierce
Li Ye was tormented by Wen Leyu for half the night, and was finally forced to accept part of the "scheme" against him, agreeing to tutor his daughter in her academic subjects.
However, Li Ye repeatedly emphasized that he would "give him a few days of tutoring first and see how it goes."
It wasn't that he lacked confidence in his abilities; after all, elementary school homework in the 1990s was relatively simple, and there wouldn't be those kinds of insane problems that would baffle even adults.
Li Ye had only tasted the sweetness of success, so he decided to "raise a bandit to enhance his own importance and ensure he was well-fed." At thirty years old, Wen Leyu was no longer the bean sprout she once was; her tall figure had become plump. The feeling of taking the initiative to deal with Li Ye and being dealt with by Li Ye was truly different.
Li Ye could also use the trick of using children to seek happiness.
As for teaching the child boxing, Li Ye did not fully agree.
Because Li Ye knew his place, when it came to sheer power, Li Zhongfa was the one to fight. Li Ye's ability to take on ten men was actually due to the perks of being a transmigrator, while Li Zhongfa had truly fought three Japanese soldiers to the death.
So Li Ye simply agreed that once the two kids felt they had learned something, he would step in to suppress them, let them know how incompetent they were, and teach them to be respectful.
However, Li Ye thought the matter was resolved, but a few days later, a twist occurred because his sister, Fu Yiruo, brought back several videotapes from overseas.
"Look, this is a documentary filmed overseas in the 1970s. It fully records the process of two Bengal tigers and three lions fighting one after another. In the end, the tigers won completely. So, brother, what you said is correct, and Xiao Dou'er is also right."
“.”
Li Ye was stunned. He didn't expect Fu Yiruo to go to such lengths to find the videotape for Xiao Dou'er's sake. These days, finding such video material is not as simple as searching for videos on YouTube decades later.
Fu Yiruo glanced at Li Ye and said with a smile, "Would you like to take a look first? If you think it's too gory, then we won't show it to the children."
"No way! Your aunt went through so much trouble to get the evidence, and if you don't show it to Xiaodou, won't she hold a grudge against me?"
Li Ye casually put the videotape into the VCR. After playing it, it turned out to be the black-and-white video that would become very popular online decades later, only it was longer and more detailed than the clip circulating online.
Decades later, the online footage has removed many bloody scenes and the final scene of the tiger killing the lion is not shown. Many people even believe that it was the same Bengal tiger fighting the same lion.
But in reality, there were two tigers. One of them completely defeated the lion, while the other was forcibly separated by humans using a high-pressure water cannon before it could win.
However, because it was a black and white film, the bloody scenes weren't as disgusting as those in color, so Li Ye still showed it to the two children after school.
Xiao Dou'er and Xiao Bao'er were indeed shocked. Their four eyes were fixed on the TV screen, and their four little hands were clenched into fists, as if they were cheering for the tiger.
When the tiger finally won, the two children cheered, and then Xiao Dou grabbed Li Ye's sleeve.
“Dad, I knew you were right. Can I take this videotape to school? I want to show it to the teacher and Xu Xianpeng so they can know who is wrong.”
Li Ye pressed Xiao Dou'er down on the small stool and then asked her, "Did you give the videotape to your classmate just to prove you won?"
"What else? I definitely won! Facts speak louder than words, they have no choice but to accept it!"
Little Dou'er blinked her big eyes as if it were only natural, her little head already fantasizing about being the victor and surpassing her classmates and teachers.
Li Ye patted Xiao Dou'er's head and said, "My dear girl, you will encounter many similar things in your life."
When you want to prove something to someone, you must prepare detailed information and evidence. Even if you show them these two videotapes, they can still say it was a coincidence.
Little Dou'er stared wide-eyed, puzzled, and said, "If they still won't admit defeat, aren't they cheating?"
Li Ye said gently, "So we need detailed evidence. This Sunday, you and your father will go to the library to collect specific information about various tigers, and then compile it into a powerful and convincing piece of evidence, okay?"
"good."
Xiao Dou'er, who always gets a headache when she sees books, immediately nodded vigorously without any hesitation.
Then she added her own claim: "I even compiled information on lions, making it irrefutable for them."
Li Ye chuckled in surprise, thinking that his daughter wasn't exactly ignorant; at least she could use these idioms fluently. It seemed she wasn't bad at learning, but rather selectively learned things that were useful to her.
Therefore, children still need guidance to grow up. For example, Li Ye's teaching this time was to teach Xiao Dou'er to use "reasoning" instead of "fists".
...
Wen Leyu was very surprised to hear that her daughter was willing to go to the library to look up information, so on Sunday, the family of four went to the library together to "seek the power of knowledge".
The search took up most of the day, making Li Ye miss the days when Baidu was readily available.
What's easy to do by typing a few words on Baidu, in a library you have to go through books one by one by following categories and indexes, which is incredibly time-consuming, laborious, and inefficient.
Should I remind Xiaoruo and the others to pay attention to the future prospects of internet search engines?
The world's first search engine, Archie, was created in 1990, marking the beginning of the era of internet-based search engines.
The World Wide Web was opened to the public in 1991, so the foundation for the development of Internet search engines was already in place. However, at that time, no one had a clue how to monetize the Internet, so the fiercely competitive fields that followed were all blank blue oceans.
According to the original historical trajectory, Google's search engine would not appear for another five years, and Baidu's would not appear for another seven years. Now that Li Ye has appeared, wouldn't it be possible to bring it forward by a few years?
"I found it! I found it!"
Li Ye was pondering how to reveal the secret to his younger sisters when his son, who was sweating profusely from researching, suddenly shouted excitedly.
Little Dou'er, holding a comprehensive guide to felines, asked Wen Leyu, "Mom, look! Isn't this information about the Bengal tiger?"
Wen Leyu and Li Ye both leaned over, took a look, and then laughed, "It is indeed a Bengal tiger. Don't you recognize the character 'Beng'?"
Little Dou chuckled and said, "I didn't recognize them before, but I will in the future, right? Besides, I learned a lot from this experience! I know that Bengal tigers live in South Asia, and Bangladesh is also in South Asia."
Also, Mom, look at what this says: male Bengal tigers can weigh over 250 kilograms, while females are much smaller. So, is the tiger in the videotape Auntie brought a male or a female?
Li Ye said, "It's a female tiger. The videotape is in English. In the future, Xiao Dou'er, you need to learn more knowledge, and you should also learn English. Your mother is an expert in this area."
Xiao Dou'er's mouth immediately turned into an "O" shape, and her eyes darted away as she looked at Wen Leyu.
The child would be extremely unwilling to learn English from Wen Leyu.
