Qiu Shushen smiled and said, "That's right, but how can the father-in-law and mother-in-law live in the son-in-law's house? Others will gossip."
An Hua: "Just live your own life and don't care what others say."
Amber Huai: "Stop talking nonsense, we have already packed our things and will leave in two days."
An Hua was anxious. She had no intention of letting An Bohuai and Qiu Shushen leave Yun County.
"Dad, don't you want to go to the surrounding villages? By the way, there is a plaque of the top scholar in Fangjia Market. I will take you to see it some other day."
Amber Huai was thinking.
An Hua hugged his arm and acted coquettishly, "Oh, Dad, please stay a few more days. I don't want you to leave."
When the Great Movement started last year, Amber Huai made it clear that he didn't want to go back. As far as she knew, the old man An Bohuai was not very courageous. Once frightened by the situation, he would definitely hide himself in his shell.
Qiu Shushen was also reluctant to leave her daughter, so she asked, "Old An, how about staying for another week?"
An Bohuai nodded, "Okay then. Huanhuan, you just take care of your own things and don't accompany me. I'll just go around by myself."
An Hua let him do as he pleased.
"Mom, mom, mom..." Dongdong ran in with a face red from the sun, and said excitedly: "The grape tree has grown so many new leaves, and the grape vines are climbing up the racks."
As he said this, he pulled An Hua to see it.
"Look, mom. Last week, I marked the position where its vine started. It has grown to this position in just one day. It has grown a lot taller! It didn't grow this fast before."
An Hua listened carefully to her son's explanation, then smiled and said, "Do you know why it has grown so fast these days?"
Dongdong shook his head.
An Huayu: "Because last week, my aunt fertilized it."
Dongdong asked: "What is fertilizer?"
An Hua pointed to the manure pit in the backyard and said, "The manure water that Auntie fishes out of the pit is fertilizer. The vegetables, flowers, and your grape vines in our yard all grow so fast and tall because of the fertilizer in the pit."
Dong Dong seemed to understand, "Why do plants grow faster after eating fertilizer?"
An Hua: "Because fertilizers contain various nutrients needed for plant growth. You will learn this knowledge when you go to middle school."
Dong Dong's daughter: "Mom, can I go to middle school directly instead of elementary school?"
An Hua: "That won't work. Who would learn to fly without learning to walk?"
Dong Dong: "Then can I go to primary school tomorrow?"
"It's definitely not possible today, but..." An Hua thought for a moment and said, "It's possible next year."
At that time, there was no rule that children had to be seven years old to go to primary school. Dongdong was only six years old, and An Hua planned to send him to primary school.
Dong Dong became happy, "I'll tell Brother Xiao Jun that I'll be a primary school student next year, so that he won't always call me a brat."
An Hua held him back and wiped the sweat off his forehead, "Okay, go ahead."
Dongdong ran to the opposite door, where Shi Xiaojun was lying there with his two brothers, sighing and groaning. There was no adult at home either.
"Brother Xiaojun." Dongdong called.
Shi Xiaojun weakly lifted his eyelids and glanced at him, "Dongdong is here."
"My mother said that he can go to primary school in a year." Dongdong said and looked at Shi Xiaojun eagerly.
Shi Xiaojun nodded but said nothing.
Dong Dong repeated, "I am a primary school student now. I have grown up."
Shi Xiaojun's brother Jia said: "Alright, alright, Dongdong, we all know you are a primary school student, just play by yourself first, your brother Xiaojun is worried."
Dong Dong asked with concern: "What are you worried about?"
"Worry..." Brother A was speechless for a moment, and Brother B took over: "Worry about how to grow up quickly and meet his white swan."
Shi Xiaojun glanced at Dong Dong dimly, "Your sister Swan wrote me a letter, telling me not to be impulsive in the future and to look for her when I grow up."
A speechless expression appeared on Dongdong's young face. What the hell is Sister Swan?
Brother A suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "I think of a way. Dongdong goes to primary school and says he is a primary school student. Then you can just go to college and become a college student. College students are adults! Then you can go find the White Swan."
Brother B rolled his eyes at Brother A, "Do you have a brain? Haven't you heard of taking the college entrance exam? You have to take the exam to get into college! How can Shi Xiaojun, with his pig brain, get in?"
Brother A nodded, "Yes."
Shi Xiaojun was anxious, "Who are you calling a pig-brained person? Who are you looking down on?"
The two brothers looked at each other, suppressed their laughter, and stopped talking.
Shi Xiaojun said "oh" proudly.
Dongdong suddenly said: "Brother Xiaojun, my mother said that eating fertilizer will help you grow faster."
Shi Xiaojun: "...What fertilizer do you eat?"
Dong Dong: "It's the fertilizer in my manure pit. It's all fertilizer. It's very nutritious. My vegetables, flowers, and grape vines all grow fast because of that fertilizer."
Dongdong was young and only half understood what his mother said, but he instinctively added, "But my mother didn't say whether people can grow faster if they eat it."
Besides, people can’t eat shit.
This is a principle that everyone knows.
"Brother Xiaojun, grape trees grow faster when they eat fertilizer. In the same way, you can also find some fertilizer that suits you."
Dongdong is very logical, but some people's ears are half open and half closed, so they can only hear half of what he says.
