90s: Koi beauty reborn and became rich

Chapter 88 The Pillar of the Family

Otherwise, if Yi Congxin comes home late again, not only will he not be able to have a ready-made meal, but he will also have to worry about him and the old man...

As a traditional Shanghai SIPG man, where is his dignity? How can this be tolerated?

One decision was followed by another:

Xin vowed to become the mainstay of the "home cooking"!

at the same time.

Yi Congxin was tinkering with her little tape recorder in the house.

This was bought by the original owner when he was learning English. He used it very carefully and it is almost like new.

She finished her work at Zheng's today and was about to leave when she was stopped by a young waiter. It was the one who Xin Yu mentioned who helped her "fry chicken offal" that day.

The young man's name is Cheng Tao. Xin Yu told her that the young man was not the most outstanding in terms of ability, but he was the most active and serious one.

Cheng Tao held a stack of straw paper in his hand and asked Yi Congxin for advice.

Yi Congxin looked at the straw paper, which was covered with dense notes, which showed that Xin Yu was right.

Cheng Tao asked a bunch of questions, which were pretty common, except that he mispronounced "Cangshu" (pronounced the same as "zhu") as "Cangshu"...

Yi Congxin answered the question and corrected his pronunciation.

Cheng Tao smiled embarrassedly. He did not continue his studies after high school. Although he knew most of the characters in the medical books and pharmacist classics, the pronunciations of many medicinal herbs were mostly in ancient languages. He did not expect that he had made a mistake.

Yi Congxin smiled and said nothing, but she secretly took note of this. If she wanted the young men at Zheng's to learn more accurately, she wondered if she could use a small tape recorder to make teaching tapes. Learning is essentially "listening to books, reading, and writing," so adding "listening" to the paper materials would be even better.

However, she had a hard time using this old-fashioned tape recorder, and accidentally jammed the blank tape...

She guessed that it might have been damp in the mountains, causing the tape to wrinkle and become tangled when it was turned on.

Yi Congxin's small hands carefully and little by little buckled the pleated strap outwards.

After washing the dishes, Xin Yu did not return to his room, but subconsciously walked into Yi Congxin's room again. Now he treated him less and less as an outsider, and did not even knock on the door when he came in.

Seeing Yi Congxin busy with a small tape recorder, Xin Yu asked, "What's wrong?"

Yi Congxin pointed at the small tape recorder and said, "It's not listening. It's completely stuck."

Xin Yu took the tape recorder directly and prepared to do something big.

Repairing household appliances is a man's job.

Yi Congxin, holding his chin beside him, casually mentioned that he wanted to record the video and make it into a teaching tape.

Xin Yu was busy with his hands and responded nonchalantly.

He also wanted to pull out the tape, but he didn't control the strength well. He pulled the thin and soft tape without any precision. With a little force, the tape broke directly in the middle... broke...

The expressions of both of them suddenly turned ugly.

Yi Congxin frowned slightly and glanced at him indifferently.

Xin Yu frowned and tried to make amends, "This...this kind of tape is almost outdated. You can actually burn it into a CD. Don't we have computers?"

computer?

The two of them suddenly reacted.

Where's the computer? It's the most expensive appliance in the house!

There is nothing in Yicongxin's room, and there is even less in Xinyu's room.

The two looked at each other: Grandpa?

These days, grandpa hardly left the house except for making medicine and eating.

Yi Congxin and Xin Yu entered the old man's house one after another.

The old man was happily playing Minesweeper???

Yi Congxin, Xin Yu:……!!!

The same thought came to both of them at the same time: Is it because I ate too much that I am hallucinating?

Grandpa looks like... such a normal person!

Yi Congxin concealed his shock with a serious expression: "Playing this can help train your brain's flexibility and logical thinking, which is great."

As she spoke, she walked over to the old man and gave him a thumbs-up.

The old man had just put up a small flag, turned around and smiled at her, and handed the mouse to Yi Congxin.

Yi Congxin unceremoniously clicked five small flags in a row, creating a large open space.

Xin Yu was quite depressed as he was ignored by the two.

The thought of burning my cooking, breaking the tape while repairing electrical appliances, and even my best computer skills... I have no room to use them at all.

As the "pillar" of the family, I am completely useless in this family!

Xin Yu walked out of the old man's room with a look of annoyance on his face and sat in the yard in a daze.

The moon quietly peeked out from behind the thick clouds, and the moonlight shone into the yard, spreading tenderness and tranquility.

After a while, there was another person beside Xin Yu.

"It's really nice to have a computer at home," Yi Congxin pondered for a moment, then continued, "I haven't asked you what you want to do with it yet?"

She had a vague guess in her heart that Xin Yu was not someone to be played with, and she had wronged the boy that day.

Xin Yu felt his heart tremble uncontrollably.

He looked at Yi Congxin, then turned his head away calmly and whispered, "I want to participate in the Information Olympiad."

Yi Congxin’s eyes lit up: What!

She glared at Xin Yu with a hint of anger: "Why didn't you say so earlier!"

Excitement and happiness are obviously stronger than surprise and anger.

Xin Yu looked at Yi Congxin deeply and muttered softly: "You didn't ask..."

Yi Congxin looked at Xin Yu with more surprise than seeing a rare medicinal herb. She unconsciously curled the corners of her lips: "You won't tell me if I don't ask? You are so young, but your mouth is harder than a duck. Don't do this again in the future."

She suddenly remembered something and asked anxiously, "Informatics Olympiad...do you need a coach? Where can I buy some practice questions? Oh, and what about your school classes?"

Three soul-searching questions in a row.

Xin Yu: “…”

He actually has experience in these areas. He had completed the entire high school content in his second year of high school, and he had no shortage of questions and coaches.

He carefully explained his preparations to Yi Congxin.

Yi Congxin had never imagined that this guy had actually been on the national team. With proper preparation, he could even participate in international competitions. And this year's national team trials were in October, so wasn't it almost time?!

Then we can’t delay any longer!

She waved her hand and said, "Starting tomorrow, you should prepare for the competition at home. We won't work at Zhengji anymore. We've already finished the poster shoot anyway."

"Then my salary..." Xin Yu hesitated.

He is not a person who likes to give up halfway. Although the money in his card is enough for him to get married and have children in the future, he still wants to rely on his own abilities to earn money to support his family.

Yi Congxin glared at him, "Salary? I don't want it! Just prepare this at home and don't think about anything else."

She didn't know the ins and outs of the Information Olympiad, but she knew that as long as she got a medal with high enough gold content, she could go straight to the shore.

What's more, she could see that Xin Yu really liked this.

She had previously forced him to take on the Zhengji job out of concern for Xin Yu's future viability, but now that he had his own better goals, as his "sister," she was bound to support him.
