The whole family travels through time and space, and the three of them struggle together
Chapter 39: Being Scolded
The next morning, Zhou Dajiang and his mother-in-law had breakfast and rented an oxcart from Zhang, the village chief, to go to town. From there, they took a horse carriage to the provincial capital. The provincial capital was quite far, and the ride would take a whole day. They set out that day and returned the next evening.
Zhou Sisi waited patiently at home, and finally her grandma and dad came back.
She looked at her grandmother, who nodded. "I've agreed to publish it and signed the contract. However, in order to make it a hit, I need you to draw two more volumes. That way, we'll have a solid readership, and things will be easier later."
Zhou Dajiang added, "However, you probably won't see any in town. The bookstore only has branches in the prefectural capital and the capital. There are none below the county level yet."
Grandma Chen patted Zhou Sisi's head and encouraged her, "Good boy! Grandma's friends also think that your subject matter is very good. At such a young age, you can create such a work. You have a bright future ahead of you. Keep painting!"
Zhou Sisi is already very satisfied that her work has been recognized and will be published in the near future. As for what her grandma said about going to Beijing, Zhou Sisi said that it is enough to just listen to it. No one knows what will happen in the future, so she will talk about it when there is a chance in the future!
The book issue was resolved, and the only thing left was the blueprint. Zhou Dajiang had been gone for two days, and Zhou Sisi had been scratching her head at home for two days, her head almost bald from scratching, but she still couldn't figure out how to draw.
The shape was fine, she said, having seen it before and already drawn it. What puzzled her was the connection between the blade and the shaft. Zhou Dajiang had initially told her that the rotating blade couldn't be molded in one piece, due to technical limitations. They'd have to cut the shaft into sections and then connect them together. The key was this connection; it couldn't be too loose. If it was too loose, the blade wouldn't be fixed, and processing wouldn't work. It had to be firmly fixed, but securing it was another challenge.
She wanted to ask her grandmother to help her ask her father again, but her grandmother was tired, and after talking to her, she went back to the house to lie down, and her grandfather followed her back to the house.
She wanted to give up painting, but she was unwilling to do so. The picture was secondary, she wanted to understand the key.
Just like watching a magic trick in modern times, when the money in the magician's hand suddenly disappears, the audience will be curious, how can it disappear in the blink of an eye? When the magician reveals the mystery, they will realize that it was just held on the back of the magician's hand.
Zhou Sisi has the same thought now. She has already participated in it and wants to figure out how to make the blade and the shaft tightly connected and not loose.
But now that she was asked to give in, she felt that she had done nothing wrong. Wasn't it just asking her father to do some exercises?
In modern times, grandpas and aunties still dance in the square, and the security guard in the kindergarten leads the children to dance "Seaweed Seaweed". It's not a big deal, so what?
Whose child isn't naughty? This is the least of her faults, okay?
Chen Xiuying was a spoiled child. These past two days, she saw Zhou Sisi sighing and groaning over those broken blueprints, scratching her ears and cheeks, and now staring at Zhou Dajiang with longing eyes, "wanting to speak but too shy", which made her very angry.
Seeing that her parents had also entered the room and there was no one else around, she walked directly to Zhou Sisi, took the completed outline drawing from the child's hand, and handed it directly to Zhou Dajiang.
"Here, child, you have already drawn the outline. You can draw the rest yourself!"
"No, the connecting axis part has not been drawn yet." Zhou Dajiang was dumbfounded.
“Draw it yourself!”
"I'm not good at drawing." This time, someone's breath became weaker.
“You draw it yourself!
Children have no obligation to draw for you. Even if they are helping you, they have no obligation to be bossed around by you!
Who needs help from someone like you? And you're deliberately making things difficult for them?
It's just a little exercise in front of everyone, what's the big deal? Are you missing a bone or a piece of flesh? You're even trying to make things difficult for your child!
Yes, Sisi was wrong for not discussing this with you in advance! Just talk to her about it afterwards and be more careful next time. This guy is so good, he even picked a fight with a child. Look at you!"
Chen Xiuying was fine if she didn't get angry, but once she did, it was like a volcano erupting, burning Zhou Dajiang to charcoal...
The old couple in the room couldn't help but shed tears of sympathy for Zhou Dajiang when they heard their daughter's tantrum.
Master Chen: "This child's temperament has changed drastically since the accident. She used to be obedient to Dajiang, but now she has turned into a tyrant."
Mother Chen: "He's a tyrant, so be it. What the child said is right. A man needs to have a bigger vision.
Even if you want to teach a child a lesson, it should be when she does something serious. Why are you so upset about this harmless mischief? "
Master Chen fought for the man: "Da Jiang is already good enough. As for other fathers, I guess their children wouldn't dare to approach him, let alone do exercises with him."
Chen's mother: "Okay, stop talking. I can't hear what they are saying."
The fun hasn't even finished yet, and this old guy keeps interrupting us!
Zhou Sisi felt guilty when she saw her parents were angry because of her. She walked up to her mother and tugged at her hand, then walked up to her father and apologized sincerely, "Dad, please don't be angry with me. I'm just tired of doing the eighth set of radio gymnastics. Children like to jump around, it makes them happy."
Next time, I'll tell you in advance if I want to do anything, okay? Mom got angry at you because she felt sorry for me, so don't be like her!"
After being criticized by Chen Xiuying, Zhou Dajiang realized that he was petty. Even if he was educating his children, he should not use this method. Now that the child had apologized to him, he also apologized to the child.
"Dad was wrong too. I shouldn't have treated you like this. Your mom is right. Education also has its own methods. This time, Dad was wrong. Dad apologizes to you. I'll explain the diagram again later. This time, we can complete it together."
Then, he walked up to Chen Xiuying and poked her arm, "My dear wife, you are right. I know I was wrong. If I make the same mistake again next time, you can continue to criticize me!"
Chen Xiuying was so angry that she burst out laughing. "You're usually slower than others when it comes to everything, but you're quicker to admit your mistakes than anyone else! Pay more attention to the kids next time and change your petty and sour attitude."
Zhou Dajiang: "Okay, okay, I'll change it." This article can finally be moved on.
Chen Xiuying continued, "You weren't home these past two days, so I counted the orders and found they were starting to decrease. The weather's getting colder, too. I estimate our cold noodle business will come to an end in another two weeks."
"Then let's tell everyone in advance that we will not sell our cold noodles until the end of this month, so people can make plans earlier." Zhou Dajiang made the decision.
"Okay, then when people come to place orders later, tell them that I'm going to cook." Chen Xiuying said and turned into the kitchen.
The old couple sitting in the house listening to the noise, it's over already? Too fast!
Chen’s mother: I haven’t heard enough!
