Da Tang Xiao Si Zi: I have a little pouch-like boy.

Set a goal for the little girl to motivate her to study hard.

At the very least, it can play a positive guiding role, that's what Li Qin thought.

Sizi nodded seriously after hearing Li Qin's words:

"Yeah, I'm working hard!"

Li Qin patted Xiao Sizi's head gently and said:

"Yes, I believe Mingda will work hard, because you are the best!"

The little girl chuckled as soon as she heard the praise.

"Mmm~ I'm the best~"

Sizi accepted all such praise without hesitation or modesty, readily acknowledging and acknowledging it.

Li Lizhi took the express delivery matter very seriously.

I spent a few days making a plan and writing a detailed proposal.

Of course, this is just a preliminary plan, and we'll have to wait and see how it's implemented.

The specific locations for warehouse construction in various regions will be decided once the relevant information is obtained.

We've already sent people to investigate on-site, but we'll have to wait a while to get the latest information.

Li Qin reviewed the proposal and, overall, thought it was decent and presentable.

However, there were some oversights, which Li Qin pointed out and asked Li Lizhi to correct.

Whenever the two of them discussed something, Si Zi would always come to the side, without making a fuss or disturbing them, and just stay there quietly.

I listened attentively to the conversation between my older sister and my little boy, trying my best to understand what they were saying with my tiny brain.

Unfortunately, the little girl only had a vague understanding each time, and sometimes even misunderstood.

Li Lizhi was completely helpless against this little light bulb.

After all, the girl isn't making a fuss. You guys can chatter away, I won't bother you.

I'm here to learn! If I don't learn anything, I'll wait until you guys finish talking before asking Little Nang Jun any questions~

Li Qin would always explain things to the little princess earnestly, regardless of whether she understood or not, just listen first.

As you hear it more and grow older, you'll gradually understand.

This is similar to the principle that reading a book a hundred times will reveal its meaning.

At least Sizi's learning spirit is commendable and should be promoted.

It's unacceptable to dampen enthusiasm; Li Qin would never do that.

They would not impatiently shoo her away or give her a perfunctory answer just because she was young and couldn't understand.

Of course, a new problem arose during this process.

That means if Sizi wants to learn these things well, he needs to learn the most basic mathematics well.

Li Qin also told Si Zi about this, otherwise if you want to make money, you won't be able to keep good accounts and you'll only end up losing money.

So the little princess began to beg Li Qin:

"Little Nang-jun~ You'll teach me math~ I want to learn~"

Then, the Li family's private tutoring night shift started.

Every night after dinner, Li Qin would take the little princesses to private tutoring sessions and start seriously learning math.

This time, unlike her previous piano lessons, she didn't lose interest after just a few sessions.

Instead, she always attended each class very seriously, with a very earnest expression.

The results are also improving at a visible rate.

Even the simplest addition and subtraction of single digits requires the use of fingers.

Within a week, they could do addition and subtraction within 20, and their accuracy rate remained above 95%.

Of course, this result still can't compare to Chengyang's 100% accuracy rate.

It couldn't compare to Gao Yang's calculation speed, let alone Li Shu's mental arithmetic.

But the little princess is very serious and keeps making progress.

Although Gao Yang is quick at calculating, he is careless, and his accuracy rate is about the same as Si Zi's.

This girl doesn't like to double-check her work after she finishes it; she never goes back to check it.

The whole family was very happy about Sizi's diligent study.

Li Zhi was even more pleased that Li Qin was personally instructing him, so he was also brought over and entered the evening class as a transfer student.

At the same time, because they did not study together from the beginning, this transfer student was also a student in a lower-achieving class.

Li Qin had no interest in tutoring him, but Wu Mei, as the fastest and best student in the class, took on this responsibility.

She was responsible for helping Li Zhi catch up on the lessons he had missed.

Li Qin mentioned it casually, and immediately, the whole family was stunned.

Even Li Qin himself realized what he had said right after he finished.

Is this destiny?

The next moment, Li Qin cursed under his breath:

That's bullshit about destiny; it's just good students tutoring bad students.

This little kid's fate has already been altered; there's no way the two of them could ever be together.

Even though they were nominally siblings, Emperor Li Er would never allow Wu Mei to marry a member of the royal family.

When she grows up, she will definitely find another good family to marry into.

Give her a larger dowry, and elevate it to the level of a princess; that would be the best outcome for Wu Zetian.

Although Sizi studies very seriously and diligently every night.

However, when it's time to show off, the little girl still continues to do so.

I can do addition and subtraction within 20 now!

If she doesn't show off everywhere, she's not a little princess.

Inside the kindergarten, Sizi's soft, sweet voice came from the classroom.

"Third sister, you're useless at addition and subtraction within 20, are you?"

"Let me ask you~ If you have two ducks, and you lose one out of seven~ how many are left~?"

“Nine!” Yu Chi San Niang’s voice rang out quickly.

"???"

Sizi, who was about to proudly announce the answer, was suddenly dumbfounded.

What the hell? Even a third sister can't do addition and subtraction within 20?

Then Yuchi Sanniang proudly said, "Hmph! I've encountered this kind of thing before. It wasn't me who ate eleven by myself, but me, my father, and my brother. We ate them together, and then our mother found out!"

"..."

Li Qin, who was standing outside the door and heard this, immediately fell silent.

Good heavens, I thought Yuchi Sanniang really knew how.

It turns out she had done this question before!

Sizi was somewhat unconvinced and continued to ask:

"I'm asking you~ If Xi has nine apples, and I lose five of them, how many are left~?"

"Four! Haha, let's replace the apples with pastries. That's what I did last time. There were nineteen of them too. I ate fifteen and left four for my mother!"

Si Zi was starting to have doubts about life. She had only done the questions last night, so why had Yu Chi San Niang already done them all?

This is wrong!

Li Qin was speechless. This girl, why are you so honest? Why don't you replace the food with something else?

In that case, perhaps Yuchi Sanniang wouldn't do it.

"Sizi, does this mean I can do addition and subtraction within 20 now?"

Yuchi Sanniang thought she was so smart; that addition and subtraction within 20 sounded really impressive.

It was obvious that Si Zi wanted to show off, but she asked herself two questions in a row, which she answered easily.

Does this mean I'm a natural reader?

Upon realizing this, Yuchi Sanniang was immediately terrified.

This matter must not be known to my family. Studying? I'm not cut out for it.

"Sizi, ask me another question!"

Yuchi Sanniang felt that Sizi should ask the question several more times, and then regardless of whether he knew the answer or not, he should always answer incorrectly or not know.

In this way, my father and mother will not know that I am a smart person.

They wouldn't hire a teacher to teach them to read!
