Chapter 9
If it were any other time, Grandma Song might not be willing to eat this bowl of honey egg custard. Even if we don't mention honey and just talk about eggs, they can be exchanged for money, so she would only give it to Song Yao.
But she didn't want to ignore her grandson's kindness, so she simply took out three more eggs and said to Song Yao: "I'll steam three more bowls, and the whole family can eat together, okay?"
Song Yao was young after all, and nodded happily: "Okay!"
So that morning, everyone in the Song family had a bowl of smooth and tender honey egg custard.
Dad Song took a bite, and his eyes lit up: "Is it so delicious to put eggs and honey together? It's delicious. I didn't expect Mom to have this skill."
Grandpa Song also took a bite, nodded and said: "Delicious."
Song Yao had been tasting it slowly, and when he heard what his father and grandfather said, he quickly took the time to join the praise team: "I have long found that grandma's cooking is better than other people's."
Although he hadn't eaten it at other people's homes a few times, it didn't stop him from taking it out to praise.
Grandma Song was so proud of the three of them that she smiled from ear to ear. Because she was in a good mood, she ate the egg custard faster (of course, the main reason was that it was so delicious). When Song Yao had only one custard left, her bowl was empty.
Seeing this, Grandpa Song, who was eating slowly, poured most of the custard in his bowl into Grandma Song's bowl with a calm face.
Seeing her looking over, he said, "I don't like sweet food."
Seeing this, Song Yao looked down at the egg custard left in his bowl, and then looked at his father sitting next to him with an expectant face.
Dad Song, who was eating happily, said, "...Why are you looking at me? I like sweet food, don't think about it, eat your own."
Seeing his son lower his head with a disappointed look and continue eating, he was proud in his heart.
Fortunately, they are divorced, otherwise he would have to be like his father, and give the egg custard to his wife when he rarely eats it.
The Song family had never been extravagant enough to eat an egg per person, not to mention that this time they had egg custard with honey. Because they all ate something sweet, everyone was in a good mood.
After eating and drinking, Father Song, who was thinking about taking a break before working last night, took the initiative to say that he wanted to go to the county to buy some things.
Father Song was young and strong with good legs and feet, and the family always relied on him for purchases.
However, because they only bought things once a month or two, it was particularly difficult to carry a lot of things. Father Song always delayed as much as possible, and Grandma Song always urged him to go.
This was the first time he took the initiative to go.
Grandpa Song and Grandma Song looked at their son curiously for several times, and then nodded and agreed to let him go.
Song Yao had been trying to listen carefully since his father was going to the county. Now that he heard that it was confirmed, he immediately raised his hand: "I, I, I, I want to go too!"
Song's father looked at his little son with a little disdain: "Why are you going? Don't you have to go to school?"
Song Yao proudly told him: "Today is Saturday, Teacher He said today and tomorrow are holidays."
Song's father: ... It seems that I have only been in school for two days.
He didn't want to take Song Yao to the county. He wanted to try selling honey secretly this time.
But Song Yao has always been smart. If he refused directly, this kid might be able to see something. So Song's father thought about it and said:
"If your grandmother agrees to let me take you, I will take you."
Song's grandmother always felt that Song's father was unreliable. It was okay to take Song Yao to play in the village, but she was worried about taking him to such a big place as the county.
It's not that Song's father didn't want to take Song Yao to the county before, but she rejected it all, saying that she would agree to let him take his son to such a far place only when he became more reliable.
Father Song was very confident that Grandma Song would once again refuse him to take the youngest son to the county town.
However, when Song Yao ran to find Grandma Song, Grandma Song was also thinking about whether her son had made progress.
It was rare for him to work so actively these two days, and Grandma Song did not want to discourage his ambition. In addition, she thought that her grandson was already eight years old. When he met Teacher He yesterday, he praised the youngest son.
Even if his son was unreliable, the youngest son had been to the county town so many times, so he would not be lost...
Looking at Song Yao, who was full of desire and kept calling "Grandma" and "Grandma", Grandma Song gritted her teeth and agreed: "Okay, then you go with your dad."
"Wow!!! Grandma is so nice!! I like Grandma the most!!"
Song Yao cheered and happily went to Father Song who was preparing in the yard.
Father Song, who learned that Grandma Song agreed:...
No reason was needed. He looked at his son who was excitedly wandering around him like a puppy, and his heart softened.
Forget it, this kid can't go to the county many times a year. After all, he is a child, who doesn't like the hustle and bustle? Just take him with you.
Anyway, he went to the county just to try it out this time, and he might not be able to sell it.
Song Yao didn't know what the adults were thinking. He excitedly watched his father carry a big bamboo basket on his back. Thinking of something, he ran to the room to take out his own small bamboo basket and carried it on his back.
Song's father: "Why are you carrying this?"
The child carrying the small bamboo basket straightened his chest: "I can also help to load things."
Song's father: "...Okay."
He felt that this was completely unnecessary. How much could Song Yao's small shoulders carry? But his son obviously didn't listen to these words, so Song's father was too lazy to say anything.
Song Yao carried the small bamboo basket, put on the small straw hat made by Grandpa Song, walked to the door, and imitated the captain of the first warship in Zhongzhou in the Star Wars in the learning system. He waved his little hand and said proudly:
"I will advance and retreat with Zhongzhou, for Zhongzhou! Let's go!!!"
Song's father behind:...It seems that we are just going to buy some daily necessities.
Grandma Song, who also heard it, was silent for a moment, and asked Grandpa Song: "Is Teacher He's family a military family?"
Grandpa Song didn't know, but seeing the words that the other party taught the child, he nodded with certainty: "Eighty percent."
He touched his chin and estimated: "Looking at this posture, maybe her family has fought in the battlefield."
Otherwise, where does a young and pretty girl get so much blood, wanting to go to heaven, and wanting Zhongzhou to become the most powerful country, and now even said that she would stand together with Zhongzhou.
Little Teacher He probably didn't realize that her reputation had spread throughout the village.
At first, she only said that she wanted to go to heaven. Although the villagers didn't understand, it didn't affect their great shock.
Going to heaven, it sounds very powerful.
Later, it was said that Little Teacher He was determined to make Zhongzhou the most powerful country, and then it was passed around. Some people added words to it, some unconsciously exaggerated, and some children who went to school went home to learn it.
Then, Teacher He spread the word that even if her generation could not make Zhongzhou the strongest country, there was still Song Yao's generation (Teacher He: I didn't, I didn't), which made the middle-aged and elderly people in the village have a sharp increase in their favorability towards this young teacher.
There was also an old man who had experienced the war, trembling with a cane, who insisted on giving winter melon to young Teacher He. He felt that although they were of different ages, they had the same resonance in their souls.
However, because the old man refused the help of his children and grandchildren at home, he wanted to deliver it in person to express his respect for Teacher He, so he had to give up the idea halfway because the winter melon was too heavy to carry.
According to his son, the old man is now waiting for the peanuts to mature, and plans to send peanuts instead once they are ripe.
And now, Teacher He has another admirable point.
It is very likely that someone in her family is a soldier, or the kind who has been on the battlefield. Listen to this: I will advance and retreat with Zhongzhou.
It sounds like the words of an admirable soldier.
Grandma Song immediately decided to deliver some honey and find out if Teacher He's family was really a military family.
When she went over, Ho Kwan-man was sitting at the door with a small stool to bask in the sun.
There was no way. The villagers of Dashu were more simple than she had imagined. She was very popular wherever she went these two days. She could be stuffed with a bunch of vegetables after a walk.
The villagers were enthusiastic and Ho Kwan-man had no chance to refuse. Every time she got a bunch of vegetables, she was moved and confused. Now she dared not walk around the village.
Ho Kwan-man: If I get more vegetables, I really can't finish it.
Then she got the honey that Grandma Song sent to her door...
Ho Kwan-man: "..."
After another round of "I don't want it", "You have to want it", "I really don't want it", "You really want it", the young and inexperienced teacher Ho was defeated again and again, and accepted a large bowl of honey in a daze.
When asked by Grandma Song, she answered casually: "My grandfather was a soldier."
Although he was in logistics, the old man was very proud of this and recalled many things in the kitchen.
Grandma Song: See, I'll tell you.
She guessed that someone in Teacher He's family was a soldier based on the words of the youngest child. How could she be so smart?
Grandma Song immediately decided to let Grandpa Song wash the dishes after lunch, and she would go out to chat.
The main topic of the chat was: How did I infer that Teacher He's family was a military family through a sentence.
And he must be an outstanding soldier. Yes, that sentence that makes people excited should also be promoted.
Ho Kwan-man, who was holding honey and wondering why everyone was so enthusiastic about her, didn't know yet.
After today, her reputation will reach a higher level.
Song Yao, who caused all this, was walking on a narrow mountain road while talking to her: "Really? Did Teacher He say that?"
Song's father nodded: "Yes, everyone in the village said that. Teacher He said that even if her generation can't make Zhongzhou the most powerful country, she still needs your generation. If your generation can't do it, there is still the next generation. One day, our Zhongzhou will become the most powerful country."
The children were amazed: "This sounds so familiar!"
005: [You also said this when you were playing with your classmates after class last time. ]
Song Yao was happy: [Teacher He actually has the same dream as me! ]
If there is someone who knows the inside story, he will definitely say that Song Yao is lucky. He is young and doesn't understand many things. He doesn't know how lucky and dangerous it is to have a learning system.
005, the learning AI, does not have the logical thinking method of humans. He is very careless and makes Song Yao full of loopholes.
But who let He Junwen appear at this time?
She came from a big city, and the village didn't know her background. No matter what Song Yao said, everyone would only think that it was taught by Teacher He.
At this moment, Song Yao didn't know that he had a shield in front of him by accident. He was still excited to say to Song's father: "I think the same as Teacher He. Dad, am I awesome?"
Song's father muttered in his heart, you think the same thing, but it's not taught by Teacher He.
But on the surface, he still nodded and praised: "Well, our youngest son is really awesome. You should study hard in the future and strive to make Zhongzhou the first powerful country in your generation."
Song Yao is super confident: "Dad, don't worry, I think I can do it."
Song's father thought: Haha, little brat.
On the surface: "Yes! Dad also thinks you can do it! Dad believes in you!"
Song Yao: "Okay! Then today is the first day that I will make Zhongzhou the most powerful country!"
Song's father bit his lip to hold back his laughter: "Pfft!"
"Hey, I mean, I support you."
Song Yao happily went to find 005: [Look, my father also supports me, I think I can do it. ]
005 detected Song's father's facial expression and felt that his expression was a little strange, but he didn't think much about it, and followed with full confidence: [That's right, host, you can do it with me! ]
Song Yao was more confident, and just as he got off the mountain road, he happily rushed to the front, running fast with his short legs.
Song's father behind took the opportunity to turn his face and smile secretly.
Song Yao turned his head and saw his father shrugged his shoulders. He asked suspiciously: "Dad, are you laughing?"
Song's father immediately turned his face away: "How could it be? Dad will never laugh at your serious wish."
While speaking seriously, he wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes: "Look, I was even moved to tears."
Song Yao was shocked to see that he really cried.
Oh my God, does Dad also want Zhongzhou to become the strongest country?
Thinking of the fact that he had wasted a year of study time by talking about it before, Song Yao felt a little uneasy. Compared with his father, he didn't care at all.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Song's father began to mutter whether his smile just now was a little obvious?
The father and son looked at each other nervously, and then quickly looked away at the same time.
They both felt guilty.
