Chapter 20 (Chapter 20 (2nd Update)...)

Village Party Secretary: "..."

He started to chase the naughty kid, but was stopped by his wife.

"Why are you chasing this kid? The youngest has been thinking about our Zhong for a long time. When has he really taken action?"

Before the village party secretary had time to speak, he heard her continue:

"And this kid is one of the best in the village. He must just be shouting slogans. He is a kid."

He was shocked: "Him? Song Yao is good?"

Countless images of Song Yao flashed through the village party secretary's mind.

What about poking a hornet's nest, crying and calling for help when he couldn't get down from the tree, and deliberately guarding him in short sleeves when he wanted to feed the chickens with mosquitoes.

Another time, in order to catch insects better to feed the chickens, the naughty kid thought about how to attract insects every day, and he really attracted a bunch of insects to crawl around.

At that time, the Song family couldn't catch all the insects after catching them for a long time, and it was getting dark, so they had to borrow chickens from the neighbors.

Together with the five chickens at home, more than 20 chickens took half an hour to clean up the bugs.

His wife knew about these things at that time. At that time, their family also lent out eight chickens.

The village party secretary's wife didn't think it was a big deal:

"The youngest son is also raising chickens to help the family. Haven't you seen how well the chickens at the uncle's house are raised by the youngest son?"

Although the bugs in the yard made him very busy at that time, this method was very good.

Unfortunately, Song Yao himself was also messing around. He didn't even know which trick worked.

After asking everyone, they found that they were all very troublesome, so they simply gave up.

Anyway, the chickens at home can find food to eat and lay eggs as usual. If you want more eggs and fatter chickens, just learn from Song Yao to catch bugs whenever you have time.

With the few chickens they raised, it is enough to ask the children to catch bugs on weekdays.

Anyway, if the insects are not attracted, they can still be raised well, and the adults are too lazy to try one by one.

The initiator Song Yao also felt guilty and did not dare to mention the experiment of insects again. He just caught insects manually to feed the chickens.

How come this matter has only advantages and no disadvantages when it comes to her wife's mouth.

The village party secretary listened to his wife's praise with a numb face:

"The youngest is smart and sensible. He knows to take the initiative to help the family with work when he is five years old. Since he can run, he has been delivering meals to his family during the busy farming season.

I heard from my aunt that he cleans his room every morning. He washes himself without being told by the adults. If it weren't for my uncle and aunt, he would want to wash the dishes."

She counted how well-behaved Song Yao was, and her tone gradually became envious.

This tone was too familiar, and the village party secretary suddenly had a bad premonition.

Sure enough, his wife changed her tone the next second:

"Look at your son, he is two years older than the youngest son, he comes back covered in mud every day, I have trouble washing his clothes.

His room is so messy, if I don't clean it for a month, it will be messy for a month, I am such a clean person, how could I give birth to such a sloppy son."

Village Party Secretary: ... Here it comes.

Sure enough, the next second, his wife glared at him:

"I learned it from you!"

Village Party Secretary: It's over.

Sure enough, his wife's topic naturally turned from her son to her husband:

"Look at you, you don't even know how to wash yourself every day, if you don't wash yourself tonight, don't even think about sleeping with me!"

Village Party Secretary hurriedly coaxed:

"Wash, wash, wash, I will definitely wash it, I will wash it tonight, okay, didn't you just let me eat peanuts? Come, let's eat peanuts."

As for going out to chase Song Yao, the naughty kid?

This brat is lucky.

Song Yao didn't know that his aunt had stopped someone for him. He sprinted at first, ran a distance, and found that the village party secretary didn't chase him, and he was happy.

So the sprint became a small step run, and finally slowly became a stroll.

He said to 005: [It's useless to just look at the tutorial. I don't know what many things are. ]

Song Yao felt that if he wanted to learn this course, he still needed some auxiliary teaching materials.

005 also felt that this course was quite difficult.

It encouraged Song Yao: [Host, don't be discouraged. Learning is a process of constantly encountering difficulties and overcoming difficulties. This is very normal. ]

Song Yao nodded: [I know, just like I couldn't help Sister Shengsheng calculate the accounts last time I was on vacation, but now I can calculate large amounts of accounts. ]

The child was very proud: [Dad said that because I helped him calculate the accounts, the honey he sold was my credit. ]

Song's father has not been idle at all these days. He goes to the county to promote his honey when he finds time.

He sold it cheaply and was good at talking, so he really let him sell eight kilograms in small quantities.

Because it was sold in small quantities, the price was 1.77 yuan.

Song's father couldn't calculate it clearly, and was afraid that he would make a mistake. He also heard from Teacher He that Song Yao had basically no problem calculating, so he asked him to calculate the various amounts and write them down.

For example, how much is two kilograms, how much is three kilograms.

When he came back the next day, he asked Song Yao to calculate according to how much is one tael and how much is two taels.

According to Song's father, most people are not as rich as Comrade Dong, so it is too difficult to ask them to buy a kilogram of honey at once, but if they sell it one tael at a time, they can still negotiate.

It's just nonsense.

Father Song has been bringing a large bottle of water every morning these days. When he comes back in the evening, he is still thirsty and drinks water, so now he brings three large bottles.

He was tired and thirsty every day. When he came back, he would be paralyzed and didn't want to move, but he didn't forget to pull his son to his side and praise him.

After all, Song’s father still remembers taking Song Yao out to play during the last holiday. At that time, the child could only calculate half a bucket of water, but now he can calculate the general amount directly in his head.

Even if it is difficult, his son can give the answer by scratching a branch on the ground a few times.

Father Song always thought that his son was good at everything, and this time he almost blew his son to the sky.

So Song Yao, who is praised almost every day, is now super confident in his arithmetic skills and learning ability.

[Even though I still don’t know a lot of things now, as long as I learn, I will definitely learn them soon. 】

005 immediately expressed his approval and applauded: [Bah, bang, bang, the host is right. 】

After receiving 005's approval, Song Yao proudly raised his face:

[I also think what I said is very good, so let’s first find out if there is any record of fan clocks in history class. 】

He swayed, searching in the learning system as he walked.

Unfortunately, the Fan Clock is too ancient for the interstellar age, and no information about it has been recorded in any other subject except that course.

Song Yao was not discouraged. He immediately thought of another way:

[There is no reason for this because too much time has passed, but for us now, the time of the fan clock has only passed more than two hundred years...]

When it came to the word "only", Song Yao was a little cautious.

But when I think about 005's era, which is nearly four thousand years later, I instantly feel confident again.

[That’s right, it’s just over two hundred years ago. You don’t have records there, maybe we have them here. 】

005 thinks what he said makes sense.

[Then host, what are you going to do next? 】

Song Yao said with a serious face: [Let's go to the county government. They have a lot of books there. Maybe we can find information about fan clocks. 】

005 immediately said that this was a good idea:

[Host, you are so smart. After you find the information, you can understand and learn faster by comparing the two sides. 】

Song Yao waved his hand proudly: "Haha, don't praise me all the time, I'm just an ordinary genius."

After discussing with 005 what to do next, as soon as Song Yao returned home, she bumped into Song's father who was sitting and carefully packing honey.

"Dad, today is Saturday, please take me to the county."

Father Song glanced at his son in surprise: "Are you going to the county?"

Song Yao nodded quickly.

"Yes, yes, I want to go to the county government to find some books to read."

Dad Song: "Are you really going to the county?"

Song Yao: "Really!"

Dad Song: "Didn't you ask me to take you to your mother's house during the holiday on Monday?"

Song Yao: "!!!"

The child, who was obsessed with studying and couldn't help himself, looked shocked.

He must have worked too hard.

I was so busy studying that I forgot such a big thing.

Seeing Song Yao's dull expression, Song's father thought he had changed his mind, so he said politely:

"It's okay. If you want to go to the county today, we can go to the county."

005 immediately sprinkled flowers: [Host! You don’t have to be sad that you can’t go, your dad agreed! 】

Song Yao came to his senses: "I'm not going to the county anymore, I'm going to my mother's house!"

005:【……】

Song Yao whispered to it:

[I haven’t seen my mother, father, and brothers for ten days. I miss them so much, so we will go to my mother’s house today. 】

After speaking, the child swallowed: [And my mother cooks very delicious food. 】

005 feels that based on its understanding of the host, this sentence is the key point.

But this is the host’s idea, and of course it must support it.

[The host is right. Studying also requires a balance between work and rest. You have studied seriously for five days. Of course, you should go to a place that makes you happy during your vacation. 】

After Song Yao was so affirmed, he immediately threw away the shame he had just felt about "putting down his studies in order to eat the food cooked by his mother".

She took Father Song’s arm and started acting like a baby:

"Dad, dad, let's go to mom's house today. Mom, baby daddy, and brothers must have missed me too."

He gave an example: "When she sees us passing by, her mother will definitely prepare a lot of delicious food for us to eat."

Father Song swallowed immediately and said, "Okay, let's go see your mother and your little father today."

He has been very tired these past five days. Although he makes money every day and feels happy no matter how tired he is, Father Song will not wrong himself.

School has a holiday on Saturday, so he can take a break for himself.

So after dinner, he expressed to Grandpa Song and Grandma Song that he wanted to take his son to Liuye Village.

This matter had been agreed upon a long time ago, so the two elders naturally had no objections.

Grandma Song raised her eyes and looked at her son and grandson in front of her.

The desire and anticipation for delicious food almost overflowed from their faces.

She looked away in disgust:

"Didn't you get another fish yesterday? Bring it to them."

"And bring some of the mushrooms I picked up at home, as well as six eggs and a tube of honey."

As greedy as these two were, they used to just try to eat.

Although the relationship between the two families is good, they can't just eat and drink for free.

Song's father and Song Yao had never thought of this, and they happily went to pick up things and put them in the backpack.

Song Yao also ran into the house, took out the small notebook he had hidden under his pillow, and put it at the bottom of the backpack with great care.

Song's father took a curious look: "What is this?"

Song Yao said proudly: "I drew it!"

Song's father was extremely surprised: "You can actually draw?"

You know, in their area, drawing is something that only craftsmen can do.

His son actually has such an amazing craft!

Song's father became excited and immediately reached out to take it: "Let me see it, let me see it."

Song Yao quickly covered it with his hands: "No!"

He stared with eyes that were round because of the widening, and his face was full of vigilance:

"This should be shown to my brothers first. I promised them last time that I would show it to them first."

The more he couldn't see it, the more anxious Song's father felt.

But seeing his son's insistence, he could only reach his hand back with regret.

Song Yao comforted him: "After showing it to your brother, I will show it to your father."

Song's father: "Then don't forget it."

The child patted his chest: "No, don't worry, Dad, I'm very reliable."

Song's father: ... I would have believed it if you hadn't said the last sentence.

Skipping this episode, the father and son walked happily towards Liuye Village.

Liuye Village is actually not far from Dashu Village. Even with Song Yao, a child, it takes two hours to walk there.

But there are many more wild animals there than in Dashu Village.

The villagers said that it might be because Liuye Village is almost in the deep mountains and surrounded by mountains.

Unlike Dashu Village, although it is also in the mountains, the mountains around them are inhabited.

Wild animals are afraid of people, so they will gradually hide in the deep mountains where there are few people, and there are more and more wild animals in Liuye Village.

But there is no need to be afraid during the day, so although Song's father is also vigilant, he is also relaxed and leads his son all the way there.

Song Yao was happy to look at the chirping birds on the big tree, and then look under the tree to see if there were any beautiful mushrooms.

He was particularly amazed:

"Dad, I found that the mushrooms growing along the way are so beautiful, I am so lucky."

Song's father: ...Because the ugly ones are not poisonous, they are picked by passers-by as soon as they appear.

But he didn't say anything, but nodded in agreement:

"Yes, our youngest son is the luckiest."

Song Yao was even happier.

However, after walking for more than half an hour, he didn't have the energy to run around.

Today, Song's father had a lot of things in his backpack, and he still couldn't carry his son. Even if Song Yao was tired, he had to continue walking.

But fortunately, he had a learning system.

In order to relieve fatigue, Song Yao started to learn while walking.

Song's father walked for a long time without seeing his son talking. When he turned around, he saw that he didn't know why he looked serious, and the key was that his eyes didn't fall anywhere.

"Youngest son, what are you thinking about?"

Song Yao took a short break to answer his father: "I'm learning in my mind."

Song's father was shocked.

His son's self-management awareness is too strong.

The children in the village are still shouting that they don't want to go to class, but his son doesn't even forget to learn how to walk.

Song's father was proud at first.

He is indeed his son! He is so good at following his mother!

After being happy, Song's father felt a little guilty.

The youngest son has always admired him.

But his son is so serious and motivated, and he just wants to rest every day...

Song's father, who has always been lazy, finally felt a sense of urgency.

He quickly took out a small note from his pocket.

It was a price list written by Song Yao, ranging from two taels to more than ten kilograms, and it was clearly written on it.

Song's father went to the county to sell honey these days and looked at the price directly on the note. Now he thought about it and felt that he should memorize all the reference prices on it.

Apart from anything else, he would feel more confident when he went out to quote.

Song Yao studied for half an hour and felt that he should rest.

As a result, when he exited the learning system, he saw his father muttering those amounts beside him.

Song Yao: "..."

Dad is so motivated and hardworking?

The child who took a break after studying for half an hour suddenly felt a little guilty.

He immediately pretended to be calm and opened the system to continue studying.

005 was very surprised to see him come back: [Didn't the host say that we should study for half an hour and rest for half an hour? ]

Song Yao said righteously: [I suddenly feel that learning is endless. I should study for a while. When I get to my mother's house, I will have plenty of time to rest. ]

005 immediately flattered: [As expected of the host, the learning consciousness is high! ]

Outside, Song's father was dizzy from carrying the book, and he turned his head to see his son still looking serious.

He:... Why is my son so hardworking.

The genes of the youngest mother are too strong.

In order to maintain his son's admiration for him, he gritted his teeth and devoted himself to studying again.

The father and son walked for more than two hours.

When they arrived at the entrance of Liuye Village, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, we can play!

They walked ahead happily, speeding up a bit.

If conditions did not allow it, the father and son would have wanted to fly to Song Yao's mother's house.

Song's father is very experienced: "Your mother must be walking outside at this time, and she will be home soon."

Song Yao was eager to try: "I can go and scare my mother! She must not have expected me to come. I will hide and suddenly jump out when she is not paying attention."

Song's father: "...Are you sure?"

Song Yao nodded: "I haven't played such a game with my mother yet."

Song's father: "...I played it once when I was a child."

Song Yao was curious: "Why only once?"

Song's father touched his son's head lovingly: "You will know soon."

Song Yao didn't quite understand, but it didn't stop him from excitedly planning where to hide to scare his mother.

When they arrived at the familiar house, Song Yao immediately signaled Song's father to go first.

He himself hid behind the door stealthily.

Song's father glanced at his son, his eyes full of infinite love, and then entered the yard.

Song Yao's heart was pounding, and he hid behind the door nervously and expectantly.

He hid in a very good place. The door just blocked his little body, and he could also observe the situation outside through the crack of the door.

Song Yao waited for a few minutes before he saw his mother appear on the path.

She was holding a sweet stick in her hand, eating while walking towards him.

When they were about to reach the door of the house, Song Yao was eager to jump out to scare her, but she suddenly threw the sweet stick in her hand up.

The child who was hit by the sweet stick was stunned.

The door was opened in a flash, and a tall, fair-skinned woman with firm and tough features shouted:

"What kind of thing dares to sneak around in front of my mother's house!!"

Then Song Yao's eyes blurred, and his vision suddenly became higher.

When he reacted again, his face was facing the sky.

He was stunned for a moment.

Then he realized that he was lifted up by his mother.

Song Yao's mother also found something wrong and took the child down with one hand.

The mother and son looked at each other.

Song Yao pursed his lips.

His mother immediately felt as if she was facing a great enemy:

"Hey! Hey! Don't cry, mom thought you were a wild goat. That thing hurts people, so I wanted to control it.

Mom controls people... No, I always use this trick to control wild animals. Your dad was lifted up by me before. Do you think he is fine now?

Okay, nothing is wrong, eh, yes, yes, let's not cry."

Song Yao sniffed and was coaxed to hold back his tears.

As soon as he held back his tears, he caught a glimpse of a dead wild goat lying in the yard.

Child: "..."

Song Yao's mother looked back along his line of sight: "...It's not what you think...It's very simple for mom to kill a wild goat, there's no need for this trick."

Song Yao: "..."

He looked at the wild goat in shock, then at his mother, his eyes were full of tears, and he finally couldn't hold it back anymore:

"Wow——"

The child's loud cry echoed through half of Liuye Village.

The strong man who was carrying a small tree on his shoulder and walking towards home heard the cry and sighed helplessly.

He stopped and said to his son: "It will take me a while to get back. You should go back first and take the wild fruits we picked. Then take this wild rabbit back for the youngest son to play with and comfort his younger brother."

"Your mother made him cry again."
