348 Dad, I will beat you one day~~

When Su Taotao came back, the children presented her with a gift: "Mom, this is the gift that Uncle bought for me~~"

Su Taotao took it and said in surprise: "Magic Cube? Where did you buy this thing?"

"Magic Cube? Sister-in-law, have you seen it? Is this cube called a Rubik's Cube?" Fu Yuanhang asked back, "I went to the black market with Mumu and the others today. The guy there said that it was invented by a foreign professor. He got some patent and is preparing for mass production."

Su Taotao is not sure when the Rubik's Cube was introduced to my country, nor is she sure whether it is called the Rubik's Cube now.

Just preparing for mass production means it has not been widely promoted yet. He simply said, "I'm not sure. The word 'magic' doesn't sound good. Let's just call it 'square'. Can Chenchen play it?"

Chen Chen nodded: "Yes, it's very simple. Mom, you mess it up~~"

Su Taotao tried her best to shuffle the colors of the Rubik's Cube and handed it to the children.

Then he raised his hand and looked at his watch.

Chenchen took it with a smile, and twisted it left and right with his short little hands, making countless clicks.

After a while, the six colors returned to normal.

Chen Chen handed the Rubik's Cube to Su Taotao with a smile: "It's very simple~~"

Su Taotao silently raised her hand and looked at her watch. It looked like it was about three to four minutes.

Su Taotao was very embarrassed that she couldn't restore the Rubik's Cube in her two lives.

I can only sigh: "It's really amazing, it's hard for ordinary people to do it."

Chen Chen squinted his eyes: "My uncle also said that I'm boring~~"

As he was speaking, Fu Zhengtu came back at this time, which was rare for him. He had been working overtime since he came back from his business trip.

Chenchen stood on tiptoe, took the Rubik's Cube from Su Taotao's hand and rushed towards his father.

"Dad, this is the gift my uncle bought for you~~"

"What is this?" Fu Zhengtu took over and asked.

Chen Chen smiled and replied: "Magic Cube~~"

Su Taotao: “…”

"It's just a cube. Can you call it a cube from now on, Chenchen?"

“Okay~~” Chen Chen prefers the name Rubik’s Cube.

Fu Zhengtu twisted it a few times and asked, "Scramble the colors and then restore them to their original state?"

Su Taotao: “…”Okay, I’m the dumbest person in my family.

I know how to play after just a few glances.

Fu Zhengtu shuffled the colors of the Rubik's Cube, and probably remembered the order in which he had shuffled it, so he quickly restored it, probably in seconds.

Su Taotao held her forehead in silence, thinking that she was indeed the dumbest person in this family.

Chenchen was unhappy: "Mom, didn't you say I'm amazing? Most people can't do it~~"

Su Taotao: “…”

She bent down and picked up the child: "Your father is not an ordinary person. Besides, in this world, there are always people better than you. No one can be the best. There are only those who are better. It's normal."

Chenchen pouts.

Su Taotao scratched his mouth and said, "If you keep pouting, you'll get punished. How about this, you and dad will compete, and mom will be the referee. Let's see who's faster, okay?"

Chen Chen nodded: "Yeah~~"

Fu Zhengtu returned the Rubik's Cube to the child and said, "You must have a competitive spirit. Dad will not let you off. Solve it as fast as you can."

Chenchen puffed up his cheeks and said: "I don't want you to give in~~"

The family of three came to the table and sat down. Su Taotao said, "Guess Ding Ke decides the order."

Chenchen punched out with his little fist and easily knocked his father's scissors off.

Su Taotao handed the Rubik's Cube to Fu Zhengtu: "To be fair, you will scramble it, and when it's your turn next, Chenchen will scramble it."

Fu Zhengtu twisted it casually for a few seconds and handed it to Chen Chen.

Chen Chen took it and frowned: "How messy~~"

Su Taotao also said: "Dad is too scheming. Chenchen will make things even more chaotic than he does later."

After reading it, Chenchen shook his head and said, "This is already the most chaotic, it can't be more chaotic~~"

Su Taotao: “…” You’re bullying her so she can’t see it, right?

"I'll start~~" Chen Chen said.

Su Taotao checked the time and said, "Let's start!"

Chen Chen's two little fleshy hands began to spin quickly, but he was not very strong after all, and it seemed that he was struggling much more than Fu Zhengtu.

In the end it took more than two minutes, which was about a minute faster than when I showed it to her just now.

There was no way, there was no second hand on the watch, so she couldn't measure to the exact second.

"Okay, it's Dust's turn to mess things up, and Dad's turn to restore things."

"Chen Chen, Mommy reminds you that Daddy may have remembered the order in which we shuffled things just now, so when you shuffle them, don't follow the order that Daddy just gave you, otherwise it will happen very quickly." Su Taotao reminded.

Su Taotao thought that judging from the child's IQ, he might have memorized the order.

You know what, Chenchen actually remembered it and planned to follow the order just now.

After Su Taotao's reminder, he changed the order.

Fu Zhengtu took it and looked at it first: "Let's start."

Su Taotao said to the watch: "Let's start!"

Fu Zhengtu began to rotate the Rubik's Cube methodically. His slender fingers seemed to cast magic. He twisted it lightly and then slowly pulled it back. His smooth movements seemed like he was treating a work of art, not a competition at all.

He seemed to be working slowly, but in the end it took him less than a minute to restore the six sides of the Rubik's Cube.

It turns out that she is the dumbest one in this family!

Su Taotao didn't want to discourage the kid too much, so she just said, "Dad is just a little bit faster than Chenchen, Chenchen, can you please do better next time?"

Chenchen: "Mom is lying. Dad is obviously more greasy than Chenchen. Dad is obviously sixty times faster than Chenchen~~"

Su Taotao: "..." Wasn't I just trying to take care of your little self-esteem?

Chenchen is very smart. He counts every time he turns the Rubik's Cube. When Fu Zhengtu turns the Cube, he also counts. Not to mention that he turns the Cube much slower than his father each time, the fact that he turns the Cube many more times than his father shows that his father takes much less time than him.

But the kid's self-esteem was strong enough, he clenched his fist and said: "Dad, we will compete once a day, I will beat you one day~~"

Fu Zhengtu touched the kid's head and returned the Rubik's Cube to him: "Okay, Dad will wait."

Chen Chen puffed up his cheeks and said, "Hmm~~"

Seeing the excitement, Fu Yuanhang asked: "Which is more interesting, playing with cubes or puppets?"

"Cube~~" Chenchen answered crisply, without any pause, the child held up the Rubik's Cube: "Uncle, this is my favorite gift~~"

This Rubik's Cube won over Pinocchio and instantly became Chenchen's favorite toy.

He announced that he would go to school tomorrow and bring his magic cube to beat up other kids!

…

Su Taotao didn't expect to see chocolate and wafers at home.

She thought it was not of this era.

After listening to Fu Yuanhang's explanation, I realized that it was given by Mr. Tang.

Fu Zhengtu recognized the Russian words on the packaging paper at a glance, indicating where it was imported from.

Su Taotao has always loved eating wafers. She even made them herself when she had nothing to do in her previous life. Making wafers requires glutinous rice flour, tapioca flour, almond flour, a large amount of sugar, etc.

Unfortunately, food is precious these days and it cannot be produced now.

As for chocolate, there was no need to think about it. Cocoa trees were not planted back then, and all the chocolate seen on the market was imported.

Even though several provinces to the south are suitable for growing cocoa trees, the output is small, and the raw materials for domestic chocolate still rely on imports.

Su Taotao also likes to eat chocolate, but there is currently no way to produce it.

I guess everyone likes to eat these two things, especially children.

Smart kids have figured out how to always have wafers and chocolate to eat:

"Mom, can you ask the uncle in the factory to make some cookies and chocolate~~"

Su Taotao shook her head and said, "Not yet, let's talk about it when we have the chance in the future."

Chen Chen: "Why is that~~"

Su Taotao said: "Because the production of this cookie requires a lot of grain, our grain is not enough to feed everyone, it would be a waste to use it to produce supplementary food.

We don’t have the raw materials to produce chocolate at the moment.”

Chen Chen seemed to understand, but was very disappointed, and there was nothing he could do.

While eating, Fu Yuanhang mentioned Bai Hua.

Su Taotao was very emotional. These days, the brave ones will die of their courage while the timid ones will die of hunger. However, as a time traveler, she did not take the risk of doing business on the black market.

Instead, he chose to follow the trend of the times and be a law-abiding young man with a good family background.

"You should ask him to find a way to stay for another year and come to the factory to try out when he is old enough. We need a lot of sales talents to connect with customers all over the country. He is so smart, it's a pity to send him to the countryside."

Nowadays, most people are pragmatic and honest. On the contrary, flexible and adaptable people like Xiao Lu are scarce.

He will lead the entire sales channel in the future and will need many talents like Bai Hua.

Although there is no such thing as child labor these days, there are still many teenagers who take over for their parents who work.

But Su Taotao felt that sixteen was the lower limit, and any younger could only work part-time to pay for her studies.

"Sister-in-law, can Dongzi and Yadan go to the factory to work part-time and earn money for their studies?" Fu Yuanhang asked again.

"Of course you can," Su Taotao said, "as long as it doesn't affect your studies and your parents agree, but the holidays are coming soon this year, so if you want to go, you can go in the next few days, otherwise you have to wait until next year."

Fu Yuanhang nodded, quickly finished the last few mouthfuls of rice, and put down his chopsticks: "I'll go inform them to go to the factory to work early tomorrow morning."

Fu Yuanhang ran away after he finished speaking, not showing any of his usual calmness.

Zhou Linglan couldn't help but yell, "Ah Hang, slow down, get a flashlight before you go out."

"No, there are street lights."

Fu Yuanhang went to find Mumu without even looking back.

Zhou Linglan shook her head: "Ah Hang has really changed a lot. He has become more cheerful and has more friends."

Su Taotao said: "It's hard not to be cheerful when playing with Mumu. The other classmates got along well with Mumu first, and then they played together."

Su Taotao suddenly remembered the time when Fu Yuanhang first arrived and those naughty kids teamed up to beat him up.

Now that the five of them are playing together, no one dares to bully them and it’s better for them to just avoid them.

"Mumu is such a nice kid." Zhou Linglan said, "How about inviting Mumu and his family to our house for dinner someday?"

"Let's wait until the Chinese New Year. Zhiqiu's family may have to go back home to celebrate the New Year. Aunt Zhong and Pangpang's family will probably stay here to celebrate the New Year. Let's have a barbecue party on the second or fourth day of the New Year and have a good gathering then."

It is best to have a New Year's Eve dinner with your family. Here, people usually visit relatives on the second or fourth day of the New Year. You can choose either day.

Zhou Linglan nodded: "I'll do as you say."

When we went to bed at night, Fu Zhengtu said, "I may not have a holiday until New Year's Eve. I'll have to trouble you to buy New Year's goods. If there is anything heavy that needs me to carry, we can buy it in advance. I can take a weekend off before the New Year."

Su Taotao clasped her hands around his neck and kissed him on the lips:

"Just do your own thing. With Xiaohang and Mumu as free servants, there's no need for our Fu Gong."

Fu Zhengtu grabbed her waist and bit her lips gently: "Are you angry?"

Su Taotao bit his lips a few times: "Which eye of yours can tell that I'm angry?"

Fu Zhengtu curled his lips and said, "Sorry, I was wrong. You are not angry. Let's take a Sunday off and go out for a walk as a family."

Su Taotao let go of his neck, lay down, and covered herself with the quilt: "I really want to take a family photo. It seems that we don't have a complete family photo yet."

Fu Zhengtu lay down beside her and hugged her: "Zhou Zheng wants to see his mother. I will bring him back at noon and let him take a photo for us."

Su Taotao said: "I'm also planning to go to a photo studio to take some photos."

Fu Zhengtu suddenly thought of something and smiled: "If you tell Chenchen to take a family photo, he might ask to bring both the dog and the duck."

Su Taotao thought of that scene and couldn't help but chuckle: "Really? Then I'd better trouble Zhou Zheng to go there."

Fu Zhengtu began to kiss her without stopping his hands.

Su Taotao held his neck and kissed him back: "Be gentle, Mom is next door."

Fu Zhengtu held her lips and said, "When you speak, please speak softly."

After saying that, he kissed all the way down...

Afterwards, Su Taotao bit her lip and dared not make a sound, and almost tore the bed sheet...

…

The next day.

Su Taotao was still the last one to wake up.

Fu Yuanhang came back from morning exercise and waited for Mumu and the others at the door after breakfast.

The four little friends appeared in front of Fu Yuanhang on time, facing the rising sun and with smiling faces.

The five of them high-fived one by one, looked at each other and smiled, everything was said without words.

Dongdong also led Xia Zhiqiu's men over and asked Fu Yuanhang: "Uncle, is Chenchen going to school today?"

The pretty little girl, wearing a small cotton-padded jacket with a big white duck embroidered by her grandmother, a full set of hats, scarves, and small gloves knitted by her grandmother, and carrying a unique small backpack made by her grandmother, stood at the door and responded crisply:

"Come on, Dongdong, let's go to school together~~"

Dongdong let go of his mother's hand and tried to pull Chenchen: "Okay, let's go to school together!"

Fu Yuanhang and Mumu were worried about the two children going down the stairs, so they each held one of them.

Xia Zhiqiu said with emotion: "Grandma Chenchen is so skillful. Chenchen looks so good in this outfit."

Chenchen is already pretty and cute, and with this outfit, she's so adorable that you can't take your eyes off her.

Su Taotao also went out with him. She smiled and said, "Wait until she is free, go buy some balls of wool that she likes and ask her to make a set for Dongdong as well."

Xia Zhiqiu shook her head: "No, it takes too much effort to weave these little things. It's too hard for Aunt Zhou."

The more Zhou Linglan looked at these children, the more she liked them. They were all good kids.

"It's no problem. Just buy them and I'll make some when I have time to kill time. It won't be that quick."

Xia Zhiqiu didn't bother to be polite with her: "Then I'll go buy a ball of wool?"

Zhou Linglan: "Buy it and see what color Dongdong likes."

"I'll ask him when the time comes. Thank you, Aunt Zhou."

Zhou Linglan: “It’s just a small matter.”
