Becoming a stepmother of three children gives me space

At the entrance of Tangjia Village,

Zhou Jin had been standing in front of the old locust tree for two hours, ignoring anyone who called him. The vendors setting up stalls around him wondered if there was anything strange on the tree.

One, two, three,

More and more vendors stood around him, and everyone looked up at the tree. The patrol came to report, and Daniu and Tang Hao thought someone was going to cause trouble.

I hurried over and found out that there was a misunderstanding, so I drove the people away.

"Brother Huai Ming?"

Zhou Jin ignored him, his eyes empty, muttering to himself, how can I measure the height of the tree with chopsticks without getting close to it?

Tang Hao was worried that something might have happened, so he ran to inform Xiao Yunxi.

"Don't worry about him, he's thinking about something."

Xiaobao came to Dabao and said:

"Brother, is that question too difficult?"

"What do you say?"

Xiaobao scratched his head embarrassedly:

"I've already given Dad a hint: use chopsticks. If he can't do it, he's really stupid."

You speak as if your mother is giving you a hint and you do it!

Dabao continued to bury his head in the exercises. The more he learned, the more interesting it became. It was as if he could get a glimpse into the world, and he couldn't stop.

If Zhou Jin were here, he would probably be able to find an idea from the question.

The sun sets in the west,

The vendors left one after another, only Zhou Jin remained standing there, not moving.

He had read Sun Tzu's Arithmetic and Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Arithmetic, which seemed to mention similar problems, but he had no memory of how to solve them specifically.

Pee.

Zhou Jin blew a special whistle, and the man in black appeared.

"grown ups...."

"Go find me the Sun Tzu Suan Jing and the Nine Chapters of Arithmetic. I can use them."

"promise!"

"Also, find a way to solve this problem!"

in the yard,

Xiao Yunxi was just about to ask Dabao to call Zhou Jin back for dinner when he appeared in the yard. Without asking him how he solved the problem, the food was served.

Xiaobao and Niuniu have been eating a lot in the past two days. For dinner, they had porridge, steamed vegetarian buns, and egg-filled pancakes, which were for her, Dabao, and Zhou Jin.

The two little guys were full of hope, wanting to eat the greasy pancakes.

"No."

Mother didn't allow it, so she looked at father. Zhou Jin was about to get some bread for the two children, but Dabao looked him in the face and changed his target, taking two buns and putting them in Niu Niu's and Xiaobao's bowls.

"Eat buns."

The two little guys pouted, just like buns, with unhappy faces.

Zhou Jin turned his head away and just happened to meet Xiao Yunxi's face.

It was not yet completely dark, and her face was half visible. Her skin was whiter and clearer than half a year ago, and there was a more heroic look between her eyebrows.

It happened that Xiao Yunxi looked up, and their eyes met, then quickly looked away. The two emotional rookies were pecking at each other.

After dinner, Zhou Jin was responsible for washing the dishes, Xiao Yunxi washed the children, and then played tangram with them.

"It's a dog."

“It’s a cat!”

"It's a dog."

The noise of the children in the house made Zhou Jin smile knowingly. He stood at the entrance of the village for a long time, but still couldn't find a solution. When he returned home, he heard the sound of water in the kitchen.

It's my daughter-in-law taking a bath.

Just as he was about to leave, Xiao Yunxi came out wrapped in a bath towel, her wet hair still dripping with water, sparkling in the moonlight.

"That... the clothes are quite unique, right?"

Are you sure you want to talk about bath towels?

Noticing Zhou Jin's gaze, Xiao Yunxi blushed slightly and prepared to go into the house.

"boom!"

The door was closed from the inside.

"mother!"

"The door is broken."

"Brother is repairing it."

Believe it or not!

"Open the door quickly, do you want to freeze to death?"

The door was opened,

Xiao Yunxi grabbed Xiaobao's ears. Xiaobao screamed and asked Dabao for help, but was ignored. The baby felt very sad.

Zhou Jin watched his wife and children playing with a smile, feeling an unprecedented peace. He felt like letting go of everything and staying here to live out the days with the wind blowing the wheat waves and the leisurely Nanshan Mountains.

It's a pity that he can't.

Zhou Jin, lying on the bed, could only think of Xiao Yunxi's beautiful face emerging from the water. He fell asleep while thinking about it, but some people couldn't sleep.

Anbu Dongshan contact point,

A group of people were squatting under a tree in the yard, with bitter faces, and they wanted to die. It was no problem to ask them to kill people and investigate cases, but it was really difficult for them to do the questions.

"Captain, absolutely impossible."

"This question is too difficult. We can't do it."

"It requires magical skills to do that."

Wu Lan gestured with chopsticks, feeling a little doubtful about his life. How could he calculate the height without getting close to the tree?

"You guys go to bed first."

A sleepless night,

The sky in the east was turning pale, and the team members got up and found that Wu Lan's eyes were bloodshot, and he was still in the same posture as before they went to bed last night.

The captain is crazy!

Zhou Jin was also a little bit crazy,

He got up before dawn in the morning. The children and Xiao Yunxi were still asleep. He ran to the village entrance and squatted under a tree for an hour. When he came back, Dabao and Erya were still practicing boxing.

Xiao Yunxi was preparing breakfast at the stove. The ingredients looked very well-behaved in her hands. Soon, beautiful buns were neatly arranged.

The water in the pot is boiling, open the steamer, put the buns in, and cover it with a lid.

While the soy milk is boiling, the steaming buns come out of the oven. When you put the milky custard buns into your mouth, you will feel very happy.

After breakfast,

Zhou Jin returned to the tree again and stayed there for the whole day. His subordinate Wu Lan came during the trip, but had no answer.

In the evening, Wu Lan brought Sun Zi Suan Jing and Jiu Zhang Shuan Shu, but there was still no answer.

Zhou Jin tossed and turned on the bed, unable to sleep all night, his mind full of how to solve the problem. Finally, he compromised.

I tricked Niuniu aside and gave her a candied haws. Unexpectedly, Niuniu refused to acknowledge the candied haws:

"Daddy, don't try to bribe Niuniu. Niuniu won't tell you the answer."

“…”

"Give up, Daddy, and help Mommy build a big toy."

Zhou Jin finally admitted defeat.

Whether or not to make toys is a small matter. I actually lost to Xiaobao, which is a bit unbearable.

Xiaobao was very proud:

"I can tell you the answer, but Daddy, you have to build a big toy and give me 10 cents."

"can."

Dad agreed so quickly, am I going to get less? But what's the use of having so much money? It's enough to buy cakes for Cuihua.

"Since Daddy is so sincere..."

"Hurry up and tell me, or I'll beat you up!"

Xiaobao holds chopsticks.

"How long are these chopsticks?"

"7 inches."

I stuck the chopsticks in the ground and pointed at the tree outside the yard.

"Measure the length of the chopstick's shadow and the length of the tree's shadow, and then you can figure it out. Daddy, do you understand?"

“…”

Zhou Jin felt that Xiaobao was talking about the heavenly book and didn't understand it at all. Niuniu added:

"Daddy is so stupid."

Dabao is kind-hearted.

"The ratio of the shadow to the object at the same time is fixed. If we know these three quantities, we can calculate the other one. Do you understand now?"

Zhou Jin stayed where he was.

When they march and fight, they use shadows to measure distance and direction. Why didn’t I think of this!

"Hahaha, a shadow! It's actually a shadow..."

Zhou Jin was a little crazy, Xiaobao curled his lips, as if you had calculated it yourself, but the big toy was found.
