Chen Zibin and Chen Zihong like their grandparents' house the most.
In order to stay a few more days, he said sweetly: "Grandpa is the best, the highest official, the most generous, and the best temper!"
Ye Qingyin was not convinced: "Grandpa is good, but grandma is not good?"
Chen Zihong rolled his eyes and said, "Well, Mom said that grandma's cooking is too exquisite and has spoiled my appetite. I can never get used to her cooking when I go back. She wants us to go back and remember to live a simple and frugal life."
Chen Zhong was so happy, this kid is so good at talking!
However, children are said to be simple-minded, and no matter how cunning they are, they don't know how to hide the truth. Chen Zhong asked his precious grandson several times in a roundabout way, and soon found out that the little guy liked the freedom here and could wreak havoc in the yard at will.
"Why can we pull up the vegetables in Grandpa's garden at will, but we can't touch the flowers and plants your father planted?"
Chen Zibin answered honestly: "My dad said that anyone who dares to touch the strawberries he grows will be skinned."
Ye Qingyin felt distressed when she heard this: "What's wrong with your dad? It's just two strawberries. Grandma will take you to buy them!"
Chen Zihong hurriedly asked, "Grandma, are the strawberries you bought big? Let's take them home and put them in a flowerpot. Will my dad be able to tell?"
The strawberries they grow at home are just big in size and half green and half red in color. They don’t taste very good either, so the two brothers don’t want them!
It was because their father treasured the strawberry field so much and strictly forbade the two brothers to get close to it, so they agreed to steal the strawberries.
Chen Zhong was amused: "Great, you two really messed things up!"
Ye Qingyin glared at Chen Zhong: "You're still laughing!" She reached out and hugged Gongjin Zhongmou in her arms: "Be good, when your dad comes to pick you up later, I'll give him a good scolding!"
Really, are children less important than a flower or a plant?
What a smart and well-behaved child! There is no child more lovely than Gongjin Zhongmou!
Chen Yuanwu hurried over with his guards. "Gongjin Zhongmou, pack your bags and come back with me. School is about to start in a few days, and your mother wants you to go back and study for your lessons!"
Chen Zibin wanted to stall for time: "Dad, if you are busy, just leave us alone. Grandpa will arrange for someone to take us back."
As long as Dad came with guards, he wouldn't be able to stay at home for long. The two brothers could stay at grandma's house for half a day and get over the beating.
Chen Yuanwu refused to discuss the matter. "Your mother called and said that you haven't even written two articles. Just now, when I came in, the sentry at the door told me that you have destroyed Grandpa's vegetable garden and the vegetable gardens of several neighboring families. Go home later and see what your mother says!"
Chen Zibin and Chen Zihong exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Grandpa said it's okay. He grows vegetables for us to eat anyway. It's not like we can't see or touch them!"
Chen Yuanwu raised his eyes and stared at Chen Zihong: "Zhongmou, tell me, did you move Dad's flower pot?"
Chen Zibin whispered, "Grandma said she would take us to buy it later and she would compensate you immediately after she bought it."
Chen Yuanwu frowned slightly, then said in a friendly tone, "A man should take responsibility for his own actions. How can you let grandma pay for you? Think about how your mother taught you. What should you do?"
Chen Zibin suddenly had an idea: "Oh, right, Mom told us the story of Washington chopping down the cherry tree! Dad, if I honestly admit to you that we plucked the strawberries you planted, you won't beat us, right?"
Chen Zihong glared at Chen Zibin with his teeth bared, then said, "It's you! It's not us!"
Chen Zibin turned around and yelled, "Who said it was me? I picked two, one for each of us. You took one bite and spit it out, so that still counts as you ate it!"
Chen Yuanwu chuckled: "Well, you two are very obedient! Of course Daddy won't hit you! Hurry up and pack your clothes and come back with me immediately. I don't have time to dawdle with you."
Turning around, he said goodbye to Chen Zhongye Qingyin: "Dad, Mom, I have something to go out for. I will probably be back in half a year!"
Ye Qingyin said, "You never come home once you're out, and Xiao Jiang works day and night. I think we should just let Gongjin Zhongmou go to the attached primary school. I'm retiring early just to take care of Gongjin Zhongmou!"
Chen Yuanwu said sternly, "Mom, you're much more lenient with Gongjin Zhongmou now than you were with Xiaofei and me back then. They're both acting lawless now. If they keep going like this, they'll get into trouble! In an environment like that at the Government Primary School, we can't let people accuse us of not teaching our children well!"
It seems to be an unchanging truth that the elderly love their grandchildren.
Ye Qingyin, who has always been strict with her children, almost always meets Gongjin Zhongmou's requests.
The pain point was touched, and Ye Qingyin had no choice but to watch with a worried look on her face as her precious grandson got into Chen Yuanwu's car in front of her with a sad face.
Chen Yuanwu had a stern face since he got in the car, and the two brothers lowered their heads and said nothing.
Back at the government compound, Chen Zibin and Chen Zihong jumped out of the car and ran to their classmate's house: "Dad, let's go get our homework!"
More than twenty minutes had passed since the half hour Chen Yuanwu mentioned. If they just stayed outside for a few minutes, their father would have left by the time they came back, and they would have avoided a beating!
Chen Yuanwu calmly pushed open the door and said, "Come in first. I'll have the guard get the homework!"
Chen Zibin was dumbfounded: "Dad, aren't you going out?"
Chen Zihong secretly kicked Chen Zibin: "How stupid! All's fair in war!"
My dad is becoming more and more cunning. The tricks he used on them cannot be found in the Thirty-Six Stratagems.
So angry!
He knew that when his father said he wouldn't beat him, he only meant he wouldn't beat him in front of his grandparents. He would still beat him when he got home.
Their mother hasn't gotten off work yet, and there's no one to divert their father's attention at any time. The two brothers might have to die heroically today.
Chen Yuanwu instructed the guards: "Guard them, don't let them escape from here."
He turned around and tapped his brothers with his chin: "Lead the way to my garden!"
Chen Zihong hesitated: "Dad, my mom said she wants to eat mooncakes, can you take us to buy her a box?"
Chen Zibin was inspired: "Dad, when you are not at home, my mom has lost weight again!"
Chen Yuanwu looked at his watch and remained unmoved: "Hurry up!"
Jiang Yun will be home in a few minutes. Now that these two children have someone to rely on, I'm afraid they will be naughty again.
Chen Zihong pointed to the kitchen and said, "Dad, I'm going to pour my mom a cup of tea first so she doesn't get burned when she comes back."
Chen Zibin said, "Dad, I went to buy popsicles for my mom. The refrigerator is empty. Mom is tired from work and can't come home without something to eat."
The two brothers competed to act cute.
Jiang Yun laughed: "Oh, my Gongjin Zhongmou cares about me so much!"
Chen Zibin and Chen Zihong excitedly turned around and rushed towards the rescuer at the door: "Mom, you are finally back!"
