Chapter 96: The Miserable Boy Who Drank the Northwest Wind
The conditions in the sanatorium in the provincial capital will undoubtedly be better, but every winter, Tang Xianjun will return to Dawan County to recuperate.
Because it's cleaner and less disturbed.
And it's close to home, so you can get together with your children and grandchildren for a day or two during the Chinese New Year.
Tang Xianjun thought that he would come here to retire in the future.
Renting this room for permanent residence, one bedroom and one living room, is enough.
All he needed was a bed and a desk.
But there are sofas, coffee tables, wardrobes, everything, and the sparrows are small.
There is a canteen in the sanatorium where you can eat, and there are doctors in the infirmary.
If you have inconvenient legs and feet in the future and can't take care of yourself, hire a nanny to take care of your daily life, so that you don't have to drag the children down and live alone.
Free, comfortable like a fairy.
On this day, after breakfast, the old man dressed up and waited for his little guest while doing tai chi on the balcony.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Tang Xiaolong came on time with someone.
Jiang Zhilian and Jiang Youting walked into the room and shouted in unison, "Hello Grandpa Tang."
Tang Xianjun stepped forward and said with a smile: "You guys are here, come in and sit!" ”
Jiang Zhilian took her sister's hand and walked into the room, came to the sofa and sat down.
She joked generously: "Grandpa Tang, you came all the way to hide from Qingxian, but you still didn't hide from us." ”
"What am I hiding from you!" Tang Xianjun stuffed a big red apple into each of the two little girls, "I'm hiding from those who flatter me and give me gifts to contact work." And what I am asked to attend, what I do is superficial, high-sounding, and a waste of time. They're troublesome, they're boring, they're annoying. ”
Jiang Zhilian could see that Old Man Tang really liked them, otherwise he wouldn't have licked his face to apprentice.
"Today I will accompany my sister to find a way, and she will come by herself in the future." Jiang Zhilian picked up the knife on the coffee table, pinched the two ends of the apple, skillfully peeled off the apple, cut it horizontally and vertically, and knocked it on the plate a few times, and the apple pieces fell into the plate one after another.
"Don't worry, I'm a kind old man, I won't bully your sister." Tang Xianjun took a piece of apple and put it in his mouth, "You guys also hurry up and eat it, it's time to oxidize in a while." ”
Jiang Zhilian threw the apple heart with the flesh off into the trash, and said with a smile: "My sister loves to cry, don't be soft-hearted, the teaching should be stricter." ”
"Hahaha......" Tang Xianjun waved his hand, "I'm not a strict person, edutainment, learning is the same as playing, doing games, and the grades will go up." Don't be too stressed, take it easy. ”
Tang Xiaolong also reached out and took a piece of apple, he pursed his lips and complained: "You told me last time that you can't fight if you don't fight, the educational concept has changed in a blink of an eye, and the chameleon has not become as fast as you." ”
Without waiting for Tang Xianjun to refute, Jiang Zhilian immediately took over the conversation, "Grandpa Tang is right, if you don't fight, you can't fight, and it's not a fight that beats people, but a fight that is built." Edutainment, making games, is also a kind of creation! Contradictory? Not contradictory at all! ”
"Rejoice! Well taught! Tang Xianjun applauded.
Tang Xiaolong: "......"
This must not be his own grandfather!
He looked at Jiang Youting, who had never spoken, and whispered to her, "Let's go, don't play with these two bad guys." Let's go inside, and I'll give you a tutorial on the basics. ”
Tang Xianjun looked at Jiang Youting and grinned, like a very kind little old man, "If my grandson bullies you, you tell me, and I will help you clean him up!" ”
Jiang Youting pursed her lips and smiled, her cheeks crimson, "Grandpa Tang, I'll go over and study first." ”
"Go, go, learn whatever you want." Tang Xianjun chewed the apple with a clattering sound, "I'll take you to do interesting experiments when you go back, and you will understand everything you don't understand as soon as you do it." ”
Jiang Zhilian chatted with the old man for a while, thinking that she would go back to teach Meng Qing English lessons in the afternoon, so she got up and said goodbye.
"After a while, I asked Youting to bring some bean paste, which is no worse than tempeh fish sauce. If you still want to eat, you can also tell her, and I'll make it for you later! ”
Tang Xianjun sent people to the door and said reluctantly: "You have time to play, you kid is very interesting, you want to come often to accompany me, an old man, to tease the boring son!" ”
Jiang Zhilian smiled, "Okay, as long as you don't get annoyed, I will come to see you often." ”
This winter vacation, Jiang Youting has had an extremely rich life.
After experiencing the hard work of setting up a morning stall, the dishwashing girl was also extremely satisfied.
After overcompleting her winter vacation homework early, she spends her days immersed in the wonderful world of creatures.
Doing experiments with Grandpa Tang and Brother Tang was full of spring and carried away.
When she opened the competition questions, she found that it was really as Grandpa Tang said before, but it was very simple.
Even every intention and every trap of the test questions can be seen thoroughly, and it is effortless to do.
For the creatures she loves, Jiang Youting has regained her self-confidence.
Stepping into a higher stage, she found that she didn't pay so much attention to school exams and even competitions.
The meaning lies in the knowledge itself, in the exploration and discovery, and in how to use what you have learned to make life better.
The day before school started, it was Sunday, and Tang Xiaolong was resting.
After Jiang Youting and Grandpa Tang had their last class, Tang Xiaolong offered to send her home.
On the way, Tang Xiaolong proposed: "It's been more than a month of study, let's go to the park to play and relax, right?" It's a reward for you. ”
Jiang Youting thought about it and felt that it was a bit inappropriate to go out with the opposite sex alone.
But the weather is so good,
She also wanted to go out and have fun, so she came up with a good way to get the best of both worlds.
"Take my second sister with you, right? The more people are lively, the more fun! ”
Seeing Jiang Youting's innocent smile, Tang Xiaolong sighed helplessly, "Okay, go home and ask your second sister if you want to go together." ”
When the two came to the rental house, Jiang Zhilian immediately responded enthusiastically when she heard that she was going to play in the park, "Okay! Grandpa Tang said that he should combine work and rest. ”
She walked over and patted Meng Qing on the shoulder, "It just so happens that my students are also there, let's go together!" Have a great time, indulge in it! ”
"......" Tang Xiaolong's last hope of dating Jiang Youting alone was also shattered.
On weekends, the park is quite lively, with ice skating, snowball fights, skating and climbing plows, and building snowmen, and the atmosphere is quite good.
Meng Qing's posture was noble and cold, and he followed Jiang Zhilian's side the whole time, without saying much.
Jiang Youting's steps were light and happy, but there were two men here, and she had some scruples, so she didn't talk much.
As a result, Jiang Zhilian and Tang Xiaolong were raising the bar, teasing, and chatting happily along the way, like a young couple who love each other.
"I'm going to rent two tires, let's slide the slide, shall we?" Tang Xiaolong pointed to a large slope not far away, where there were many people playing.
"Okay, the tires are heavy, I'll go with you." After Jiang Zhilian finished speaking, she turned back to look at Meng Qing and Jiang Youting, "You two wait here, let's go and go back." ”
Meng Qing took a step forward, "I'll go with you......"
"No." Jiang Zhilian said as she walked away side by side with Tang Xiaolong.
She knew that Meng Qing was not interested in these things, and pulling him out was to let him distract himself, and there was no need to do things he didn't like in order to cooperate with them.
After a while, Meng Qing saw two chattering people coming over from a long distance, laughing and playing.
"Let's go, slide the slide!" Jiang Zhilian was enthusiastic, and her face was full of red light.
She asked Meng Qing, "Do you play?" ”
Meng Qing frowned and spit out two words - "don't play".
"That's okay, Youting, you sit on a tire with me, Xiaolong, you play by yourself." Jiang Zhilian waved her small fist at the sky and shouted, "Comrades, let's go!" ”
Meng Qing: "......"
Why couldn't he think of agreeing to come along?
It wasn't his turn to speak.
He doesn't have his share in playing.
Is he here to drink the northwest wind?
If he says he wants to play, then how to arrange these two tires?
After all, this man didn't intend to let him play at all! Even if I asked, it was just a formality.
Meng Qing suddenly regretted a little that he wouldn't play, so he should have unexpectedly done the opposite.
But now it's too late to regret it, and the three of them have already played with them.
Meng Qing stood at the top of the slope with a frown, kicking the snow under his feet angrily.
Suddenly, the kicked foot suddenly slammed in the air, and he saw Jiang Zhilian being knocked out of the tire and rolling to the bottom of the slope like a snowball......
