Chapter 737: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 737: Meeting the Love Rival
Shu Yu asked, "Why?"
The old lady poked her forehead. "The one who brought Da Hu and San Ya back must be from the Zhang family. Since I know their intentions, you shouldn't meet him again. I've already refused on your behalf."
Not only that, she would also restrict Da Hu and San Ya from visiting the Zhang family in the future.
As the old lady pondered, she heard Da Hu's excited voice from the courtyard. "Zhao... Big Brother Niu, you're back?"
Da Hu was about to blurt out more, but he quickly stopped himself.
Zhao Xi walked over with a smile and patted the heads of the two children. "Yes, I'm back. Do you miss me?"
"We do." Da Hu replied, then he noticed Meng Yunzheng coming out of the house and became even more excited. "Brother Meng!"
He wriggled out from under Zhao Xi's hand and rushed over to Meng Yunzheng. "Brother Meng, the learning method you taught me is so effective! I can remember so many words now. I've even become like a little scholar. It's amazing!"
"Is that so?" Meng Yunzheng praised him and then looked up at Zhang Ping'an, who was standing somewhat awkwardly in the courtyard. His gaze was scrutinizing, but after a moment, he lowered his head and said to Da Hu, "Although the method is effective, it's still a shortcut. After you remember, you need to review and solidify the foundations before you can learn more advanced knowledge. Being a little scholar is good, but if it distracts you from your own studies, it would be putting the cart before the horse, understand?"
Da Hu tilted his head, not quite understanding. Being a little scholar, couldn't he review as well?
But Brother Meng was a very knowledgeable person, and Da Hu admired and idolized him the most, so whatever he said must make a lot of sense.
The little boy nodded vigorously. "I understand. Then, I won't be a little scholar for now. I'll teach others once I can recite everything."
Saying that, he turned his head to Zhang Ping'an and said, "Brother Zhang, I won't come to your house for the next few days."
Zhang Ping'an always felt that Meng Yunzheng held a lot of hostility towards him. He forced a laugh and said to Da Hu, "Alright, studying is indeed important. I've delayed you for several days."
Da Hu waved his hand. "No, Brother Zhang, you don't need to feel guilty."
Meng Yunzheng sneered, and Zhao Xi enjoyed the show.
Just as Zhao Xi received Meng Yunzheng's sharp and gloomy gaze, he suddenly remembered that his time limit hadn't expired yet. He quickly realized the situation and called out loudly towards the kitchen, "Grandmother, is lunch ready? We just got back, and our stomachs are growling."
Meng Yunzheng smiled kindly and asked Zhang Ping'an, "Mr. Zhang, we just got back today, and there's plenty of food at home. Do you want to stay and have some?"
Zhang Ping'an quickly waved his hand. "No need, no need. I just brought Da Hu and San Ya back. I'll leave now."
After saying that, he glanced towards the kitchen. The old lady had come out and invited him as well, but Zhang Ping'an declined.
Unfortunately, he didn't see Shu Yu come out, which left him somewhat disappointed as he turned and left through the courtyard gate.
Da Hu and San Ya exchanged glances, wondering why the atmosphere felt strange.
Fortunately, the voice of Shu Yu soon came from the kitchen, "Come and eat. Stop standing outside."
The two children immediately rushed into the kitchen, excitedly asking Shu Yu, "What are we having today, Second Sister?"
"Sour and spicy fish," Shu Yu replied, raising her head to see Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi entering as well. She greeted them, "Let's eat first. After we finish, I have something good to show you."
