Parental Love: Jiang Weimin's Life of Lying Down

Chapter 16 The Strategy Takes Effect

Jiang Yafei and Jiang Yaning came to the busy square, each holding a picture album in their hands. They found that many girls in the square were wearing clothes from Jiang Weimin's picture album, looking particularly energetic and lovely.

When the group of girls noticed the huge picture album in Jiang Yafei and Jiang Yaning's hands, they immediately put down the games they were playing and quickly gathered around.

One of the girls said excitedly: "Jiang Yafei, is this the new 16-page album drawn by Jiang Weimin that you mentioned before? Let us take a look!"

Another girl chimed in, "Yeah, let's see it!"

"It's okay to look at it, but you can't touch it."

She carefully opened the album and saw that every page was filled with exquisite paintings, which aroused exclamations and envy from the girls around her.

Jiang Yafei showed a satisfied smile on her face. Perhaps this feeling was the same as the happiness of a modern girl buying a long-awaited brand-name bag and showing it off everywhere!

"Jiang Yafei, can Jiang Weimin help us draw one of these beautiful paintings?"

Soon after, other girls chimed in and said they also wanted to have such a portrait.

Facing everyone's enthusiastic inquiries, Jiang Yafei quickly explained the task assigned by Jiang Weimin, "You can still draw, and exchange for comic books. One drawing for a book, and I can also draw family photos!"

"Really? What does the photo look like?"

"Look, this is our family photo. Jiang Yafei turned to the last picture in the album. Isn't it beautiful? However, to draw a group photo, you need to use two picture books to exchange for one picture."

"Great, I'll go home and get the comic book right away. Jiang Yafei, could you please help me register it first?"

"Don't worry, there are still some conditions to pay attention to. New pictures, new requirements. Jiang Weimin needs to exchange for the comic books that he hasn't exchanged before."

"What's the meaning"

"Look at the details in my hand. These are the names of the comic books that I have collected. Any name that is not listed above can be exchanged."

Jiang Yafei thought for a moment and added, "The comic books of the Four Great Classics can also be changed in the details, but only the paintings of the previous versions can be changed."

"So, Jiang Yafei, can we change all the styles of pictures for the comic books that are not in the details? And for the comic books of the Four Great Classics that are in the details, can we continue to change the pictures of the previous versions?"

"Yes, that's it."

"This is too difficult! Where can we find it?" everyone complained.

"The quality of the paintings has been upgraded because they are hard to find. So if you want to change them, please try to find them!" Jiang Yafei explained.

"Jiang Yafei, wait a minute. I'll go back and copy down the details first."

"I'll copy it too," others echoed.

"Then let Wang Liya have the details first. If you want to copy something, copy it from her."

"Everyone, please find them as soon as possible. Jiang Weimin only collects two copies of each book. For example, after Wang Liya collects two copies first, she will not be able to change the paintings of this book later," Jiang Yafei reminded.

"Let me take a look at the details first," the little girl said, and immediately took the details and read them carefully, then ran home in a hurry. Then everyone dispersed.

A group of boys surrounded Jiang Weidong and played on the other side of the square.

"Jiang Weidong, your sister is showing off her new album again. It looks like it's Jiang Weimin's new album."

"What's so special about a bunch of little girls looking at a tattered painting? My little picture book has been turned into a picture album by my sister."

"You have two paintings yourself!" the person next to him reminded him.

"Hehe" the boy scratched his head awkwardly.

"This is all good news, as it means we have picture books to read again," Wang Yuanchao said excitedly.

"How come it's a good thing?"

"Aren't the comic books collected by Jiang Weimin Jiang Weidong's? Aren't the comic books of Comrade Jiang Weidong everyone's? Aren't the comic books collected by Jiang Weimin for everyone?"

"Wang Yuanchao, you are still the most cunning," the others laughed and teased.

"Jiang Weimin is planning to clear out all the comic books on the island."

"Isn't it just making wedding dresses for us?"

As time went by, Jiang Weidong's group grew bigger and bigger, and the number of members increased day by day. Most of these new friends were attracted by the comic books in Jiang Weidong's hands.

At this moment, they were gathered in a circle, talking about various topics with great interest, and at the same time looking forward to the picture books that were about to be in their hands.

"Okay, everyone, be patient! I will go home and get twenty picture books, and then we will go to Dajun's house to read them together." Jiang Weidong felt like he was commanding a group of people.

Hearing this, the friends around were extremely excited and shouted: "Long live Jiang Weidong!"

At this moment, Jiang Weidong successfully recruited many like-minded friends with the comic book in his hand, which made him feel the same as when his elder brother Jiang Weiguo was still on the island, when he was surrounded by people. This feeling was so wonderful that Jiang Weidong couldn't help but indulge in it.

Unlike Jiang Weidong's happiness, Zhou Aiguo was in a very bad mood at this moment.

The two sisters Zhou Aihong and Zhou Ailing stood at the door, carefully observing the movements in the house. They knew that their brother Zhou Aiguo was angry because of the comic book incident!

"Sister, we are in trouble this time. What should we do?" Zhou Aihong looked worried.

"It's okay. The picture books have been replaced anyway, so why not take them back?" Zhou Ailing didn't care.

"Oh, that's my brother's favorite picture book!" Zhou Aihong frowned, feeling a little sorry.

"Okay, okay, don't think too much. At worst, you can ask Dad to buy him a new one later!" Zhou Ailing comforted her sister.

At this moment, Zhou Aiguo walked out of the room and questioned his two sisters angrily: "Why are there only a few of my comic books left? Did you exchange them for paintings again?"

Zhou Aihong and Zhou Ailing looked at each other, feeling a little timid. Zhou Aiguo looked at the few comic books he had left, and his anger grew stronger.

"Brother, haven't you read all these picture books?" Zhou Aihong tried to explain.

"That's my favorite comic book. Even if you've read it, you can't just exchange it for something else!" Zhou Aiguo was very angry at this time.

In fact, Zhou Aiguo had exchanged comic books for paintings before, but he had always kept a few of the most popular comic books, which made him very popular among his friends. Now, these precious comic books are gone, how can he not be angry?

"But we have already replaced the picture book, so we can't get it back!" Zhou Ailing said helplessly.

After saying that, she winked at Zhou Aihong, and the two of them quickly turned around and ran out the door, leaving Zhou Aiguo standing there alone, stamping his feet in anger.

Jiang Weidong didn't expect that their plan was still successful, but it just took a little longer.

You two stop right there, don't run! Zhou Aiguo chased after them closely, while the two sisters in front ran forward with all their might.

Just as he was about to catch up, a voice came from the door: "Aiguo, what are you doing?"

It turned out that Zhou Aiguo's father had just come home from get off work. The two sisters immediately ran to their father and shouted in unison: "Dad, Dad, my brother wants to beat us."

"Dad, please save us."

Zhou Aiguo's father looked at his two daughters with loving eyes.

Then, he turned his head, stared at Zhou Aiguo seriously and asked: "What's going on? Why are you bullying your sister?"

Zhou Aiguo said aggrievedly: "I didn't, it was my sister who exchanged my comic book for the painting."

The sisters retorted unconvincedly: "That was given to us by our aunt. It is not only yours, but also ours. We have the right to dispose of it."

Relying on their father being around, they stared at Zhou Aiguo without fear.

Zhou Aiguo was so angry that his face turned red. He glared at the two sisters: "That's not okay either!"

Dad quickly tried to smooth things over: "Okay, it's just a few picture books. Buy more if you run out."

Zhou Aiguo explained anxiously: "Dad, you can't buy it on the island. My aunt brought it from Qingdao."

Dad frowned, thought for a moment and said, "Okay, as a man, don't bother with your sister. Write a letter to your aunt and ask her to bring you a few more books next time she comes."

"Slightly...slightly..." The two sisters stuck out their tongues as if they had won a victory. Zhou Aiguo was full of dissatisfaction and helplessness, wanting to cry but without tears.

At Jiang Weimin's house, Wang Yuanchao was looking through a picture book when he suddenly became excited as if he had discovered some treasure.

"Brother, look what this is?" Wang Yuanchao took out two picture books and held them in front of Jiang Weiguo.

"Wang Yuanchao, don't be so surprised. How can there be money in comic books?" Jiang Weidong looked at Wang Yuanchao speechlessly.

"Yes! Have you forgotten? Last time we got 2 cents out of the comic book and used it to buy popsicles," Jiang Weidong reminded.

"Don't mention it. They came looking for us later and it was Jiang Weimin who paid us back. How come you found the money again?" Jiang Weiguo said with a frown.

"No, do these two picture books look familiar to you?" Wang Yuanchao shook the picture books in his hand and asked with a smile.

Jiang Weiguo laughed when he saw it. Isn't this Zhou Aiguo's comic book? It has really been replaced. Our plan was successful.

"What do you think, brother? What did I say? We are the ones who plan ahead and fight the battle thousands miles away!" Wang Yuanchao looked very proud.

"Haha, let's see if Aiguo is still as proud as ever next week. Doesn't he like these two picture books? I've finally given him a good lesson this time." Jiang Weidong looked proud.

"That's right, take it to show Da Jun and the others quickly. They have wanted to read it for a long time but never had the chance. If Jiang Weimin finds out, he will definitely put it away. Jiang Weimin is now a comic book collector. He has collected all the comic books in the house and locked them in the cabinet." Jiang Weidong said as he put the two books in his arms.

"Your brother's hobby is not something that ordinary people can afford."

"Yeah, most people don't have that many things to exchange for these comic books. But it's okay this way, let him help us exchange comic books in the future."

Jiang Weidong and Wang Yuanchao talked as they hurriedly ran out the door.

Jiang Yafei looked at the two people's backs as they left and asked curiously, "Brother, why are you two running?"

Jiang Weidong replied excitedly: "Jiang Yafei, our plan was successful." After that, he raised the picture book in his hand, continued to run forward, and soon disappeared in the distance.

Jiang Yafei hurriedly followed him and shouted, "Second brother, wait for me, what is the plan? Tell me clearly!" She shouted as she chased after him.
