Chapter 44: The Snail Girl
It seems that the child's body is always full of energy.
Zhou Xiyu goes home on weekdays to run, because it is after school on Friday, and she doesn't have to go to class tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so she runs faster than usual.
is different from when she goes to school, on the way to school on weekdays, little Lori's mind will be attracted by all the things on the road that can arouse curiosity, and she will walk slowly;
And when she got out of school, she only had the one thing left in her mind to go home, and the last second she just appeared at the gate of the yard, and the next second she rushed into the house in a hurry, and soon heard the sound of the brothers and sisters talking in the house.
With her brother at home, Zhou Xiyu didn't have to lock herself in the house when she came back, the weather was just right at this time, and soon after she returned to the house, she came out with her schoolbag, sat down at the small stone table in the yard, took out the stationery box and the homework to be completed on the weekend from the schoolbag and began to write.
Xiao Mang was lying on the table, Zhou Xiyu was writing homework with one hand, and the other hand was caressing its soft little belly, and the little Lori and the cat felt very comfortable.
Bai Yueying was also sitting beside her, but Xiao Yu couldn't see her, but she felt that it was quite cool to sit in the small courtyard here.
"Xiao Mang, Xiao Mang."
"Meow."
"A rectangular lawn is sixteen meters long and fourteen meters wide, and if you want to build a cement road around the lawn, how many meters is the minimum length of the concrete road?"
"Meow ......"
What is long, long, wide and wide, I am a cat, how can a cat understand!
The cat doesn't understand, but the ghost lady next to her does, even if she forgets a lot of knowledge, at least the second-grade homework will be done with her eyes closed.
"This question is to calculate the circumference, and the length and width multiplied by two is the circumference in miles." Bai Yueying couldn't help but say.
It's a pity that Zhou Xiyu can't hear it, biting the pen and calculating stupidly, her biggest headache is mathematics, but mathematics is Zhou Zhongqing's best subject.
I don't know if my parents have passed on all the math genes to my brother, just imagine, a person who can get close to a perfect score in math in the college entrance examination, has to teach a stupid sister who can't even understand second-grade math problems on weekdays, how torturous it is.
In fact, Zhou Xiyu doesn't know how to calculate the circumference, she just can't understand the meaning of the question, unlike adults, children's thinking diverges very widely, and she is even thinking about whether she can build this cement road diagonally, but how to count the diagonal she has not learned.
At this time, a cool breeze blew, and the pencil she placed on the textbook turned down slightly, and the tip of the pen pointed to the word 'circumference' in the knowledge point.
Little Lori looked at the reminder on the tip of the pen and was stunned, and then looked like she suddenly realized.
"It turns out to be the circumference!"
My sister started to count on the draft again: 16 + 16 + 14 + 14 ...... She hadn't learned the multiplication of two-digit numbers yet, and she could get the correct answer by adding them up clumsily.
Bai Yueying also breathed a sigh of relief, she was almost in a hurry to pick up the pen herself just now and show it to her.
Don't say it, seeing that Xiao Yu did the right thing after being reminded by herself, Bai Yueying still felt an inexplicable sense of accomplishment.
Finish the most troublesome math homework first, and the rest of the homework will be much easier, Zhou Xiyu still has the mind to look around.
After all, it was her own home, and the subtle changes could not escape her curious eyes, and she soon noticed that the weeds in the yard seemed to be much cleaner than this morning.
"Brother!"
"What."
Zhou Zhongqing also came down from the second floor and was ready to work for dinner.
"Did you pull the weeds today?"
"Nope."
"Did you water the flowers today?"
"Nope."
Zhou Zhongqing was on the second floor just now, and he didn't see what Bai Yueying was busy with, he was washing vegetables in the kitchen at this time, and his sister's question was answered casually.
"Huh! It's amazing! ”
"What's wrong?"
"There are a lot fewer weeds, and then the flowers are watered!"
“…… I did it. ”
"But my brother just said no."
The witty and brave Zhou Xiyu immediately found the crux of the problem: "Brother! Someone from our house must have come in! ”
“…… Who's going to come in? ”
"Snail girl!"
“……?”
Zhou Xiyu's expression was excited, as if he had discovered something amazing: "A few days ago, the teacher told us the story of the snail girl, so it must be the snail girl who came to our house to help pull weeds and water the flowers!" ”
Miss Snail doesn't, Miss Ghost does, and she's sitting next to you......
Seeing that her sister had found an answer for herself, Zhou Zhongqing didn't care about her, Miss Tianluo was always more convincing than Miss Ghost......
Realizing that there might be a snail girl at home, Zhou Xiyu became even more excited, as if playing hide and seek, looking for traces of the snail girl all over the house.
"Brother! The study room has also been tidied up by the snail girl! ”
“…… That's what I put together. ”
"I don't believe it."
"Brother, did you grow these garlics?"
Zhou Zhongqing looked back, Zhou Xiyu was squatting next to the four garlics, the soil here obviously had traces of watering, and the tips of tender green sprouts appeared on the garlic cloves, and she also stretched out her fingers and touched them gently.
Bai Yueying also stood beside her, looking like she was afraid that Little Lori would pull out her garlic sprouts.
"Well, it's my ......"
"It must have been planted by the snail girl!!"
Before Zhou Zhongqing finished speaking, Zhou Xiyu excitedly gave an answer.
Little Lori is at the age of fantasy and vigor, usually before going to bed did not pestering her brother to tell her all kinds of fairy tales, when the teacher told the story of the snail girl, she listened to it fascinated, thinking that she also had a snail girl at home, and now she really found some abnormal traces, and the little face was excited.
Seeing his sister so excited, Zhou Zhongqing was also angry and funny, probably this is the innocence of a child.
Back then, he also fantasized about aliens, immortal cultivators, superpower bosses or something, and believed in it, but as he grew older, he gradually felt that it was all a joke, even if there was a ghost around him, his first reaction was that it was impossible.
"Do you really believe that there is any snail girl?"
"Really!"
Zhou Xiyu said to his brother thoughtfully: "Xiaoyi said that her family may also have a snail girl!" ”
"Huh?"
"Every day when she comes home, the meal is ready!"
That's the part-time job hired by other people's parents, right?!
After all, there is only a ghost lady living in the house, even if Zhou Xiyu can't see her, but she can feel a lot of subtle changes, but seeing that her stupid sister is willing to believe in the snail girl, the witty brother also pushes the boat, first, he also retains her innocent and beautiful fantasy, and secondly, he saves himself to explain something, which is really a double win.
"What are you looking for?"
Zhou Zhongqing watched curiously as his sister stood on a small stool and bent down to check the large water tank in the yard.
"The teacher said that the snail girl lives in the water tank, and I want to see if there are any snails in it."
The surface of the water in the tank reflected the pretty face of the little Lori, she lay on the side and looked inside curiously, but the snail didn't see it, only saw three little goldfish swimming to the surface of the water and spitting bubbles.
"She's definitely hidden, how can you see her."
"And how do I find her?"
Zhou Zhongqing looked at Miss Ghost standing beside her sister and said, "Miss Tianluo, if you are here, just blow the wind." ”
"Huh?" Bai Yueying was stunned.
"Blow the wind and tell my sister that you're there." Zhou Zhongqing said again.
Zhou Xiyu stood obediently and waited expectantly, there was obviously no wind in the yard, but at this moment, a cool wind suddenly blew on her face, and her soft hair also moved with the wind, so her eyes widened, and the baby's fat face was even more excited.
"It's really, really windy! Brother! Snail girl, she's really here!! ”
"Brother, you're going to have a wife!!"
"Miss Tianluo will marry you!!"
“……?”
