Chapter 269: You let the wolf in and then try to fix the problem?
Xu Hongmi took a lot of photos of the two with her phone. She looked at the time and it was almost time. She walked over to her daughter who was sweating. She wiped her forehead again and said, "Lingling, we have gained so much today. Can we come again next time?"
Hearing this, Xiao Lingling immediately felt a little depressed, and could only look at Chen An with a little grievance, "Uncle-in-law, next time you must make time to take Lingling out to play, okay?"
Chen An smiled and nodded, "Okay, I promise you..."
Lingling stretched out her little finger and looked at Chen An, "Hook..."
"Let's make a promise to each other for a hundred years and never change. If we change, we will be little crabs, walking sideways..."
"Hehe, my little uncle-in-law is not allowed to turn into a little crab..." Little Lingling achieved her goal and laughed like a little fox.
Chen An gently picked up Xiao Lingling and let her sit on his shoulders.
Xiao Lingling grabbed Chen An's hair tightly with both hands and shouted excitedly: "Wow, I'm so tall!"
"Hold on tight, let's go over there and have a drink..."
Xu Hongmi followed beside him, carrying a small bucket in her hand, putting away the tools, looking at the small bell on Chen An's shoulder with a smile on her face, but at the same time she was a little envious of her sister, her luck was much better than hers.
The sea breeze blew gently, ruffling Xu Hongmi's hair. She looked towards the distant sea, feeling a little yearning for such a simple and happy life.
But these thoughts came and went quickly. Listening to her daughter's bell-like laughter, she knew she had to work hard to be a mother who could protect her from the wind and rain.
Time passed quietly amid laughter and joy, the sun gradually set, and a gorgeous sunset glow appeared on the horizon.
On the way home, Xiao Lingling was so tired that she fell asleep in the car, with the shells she had dug that day still tightly clasped in her hands.
Xu Hongmi said softly: "Thank you today, Xiao Chen."
"Sister Hongmi, why are you so polite to me..." Chen An said with a smile.
Chen An did not express his opinion on Xu Hongmi's educational methods. After all, everyone has their own opinions.
However, in Chen An's opinion, there are problems with the education methods of many middle-class families today. For example, Gu Jia's method works very hard and is willing to spend money to equip her children.
This is all due to the anxiety of the middle class, because only this class, which is neither up nor down, feels the most uncomfortable. On the one hand, it is not easy to reach the middle class through hard work, and naturally they hope that their next generation can go one step further. Unfortunately, they will never understand.
Ordinary people can make the leap to the middle class with hard work and high education and high IQ, but if they want to cross the class again, it is not based on hard work alone, but requires a certain amount of accumulation. Otherwise, the efforts of several generations of others will be surpassed by you who only have a degree from a prestigious university and have worked hard for ten years. Isn't that like a field mouse giving birth to a rat, with each litter being worse than the last?
After sending Xu Hongmi home and looking at the time, Chen An went to a nearby supermarket to buy some vegetables and meat. He also went to Liangpinpu to buy a few boxes of snacks before driving to Qin Qiao's house. The snacks were naturally for Guan Guan, and as for the ingredients, Chen An naturally wanted to show off his skills.
At the entrance of the community, Chen An took out his cell phone and called Qin Qiao.
"Hey, Erha, have you figured out what to do?" Qin Qiao's somewhat tired voice came.
"Hey, what's going on? The voice sounds weak. Could it be that he eavesdropped on the fight next door again today?" Chen An teased.
"Can you please speak nicely? I just took a small order and I'm a little tired. If you have something to say, please tell me quickly. If not, I'll hang up and go to bed." Qin Qiao said unhappily.
"You can sleep, but open the door for me in three minutes." Chen An said and hung up the phone.
Qin Qiao's sleepy eyes immediately widened and she asked, "What, you are not..."
"Beep, beep, beep..." A busy tone came. Qin Qiao felt very uncomfortable. She didn't care about anything else and quickly cleaned up the room.
Chen An deliberately waited downstairs for a few more minutes before going upstairs.
Qin Qiao opened the door and was about to say something bad about Chen An being unpunctual, but when she saw the big bag in his hand, she was stunned.
"No, why did you buy so many vegetables?" Qin Qiao asked in surprise.
"Of course it's cooking." Chen An raised the bag in his hand.
"Hey, hey, I can't cook. If I can just cook noodles or fry eggs, that's OK, but don't expect me to do it." Qin Qiao waved her hands quickly.
"Seeing that you're so lazy, I'm afraid you'll get poisoned. Don't worry, I'll do it." Chen An said with a smile.
"No, Chen An, are you mentally ill? Do you want to do it yourself at home?" Qin Qiao frowned.
"I haven't rented a house yet. You can't cook in a hotel. I'm tired of eating out. I'll lend you my kitchen today and let you taste my cooking skills." Chen An said.
"Where are you going to put it?" Qin Qiao rolled her eyes at him.
"That depends on where you want to put it..." Chen An smiled evilly.
As an internet expert, Qin Qiao reacted immediately, with a blush on her face, and kicked Chen An on the calf, "Work hard, don't talk, and don't have any messy thoughts."
"I'm not saying you're small, but where do you get your confidence from? Someone like me can just go to a nightclub at night and attract so many beautiful girls. Do I need to do anything bad to you?" Chen An looked smug.
Qin Qiao smiled slyly, with a hint of ridicule in her eyes, and took the tissue beside her and stuffed it into Chen An's hand, "Haha, it's not safe, be careful of getting sick, and you have a girlfriend, so I advise you to just look at the browser honestly."
Chen An was a little depressed and pointed to the bedroom, "Dark Circles, go back to your nest quickly, Brother Chen will call you when he's done."
"No, I have to keep an eye on you here. What if you put something weird in the dishes?" Qin Qiao crossed her arms.
"Hey, little sister, don't you know what it means to let a wolf into the house? Do I need to waste money on medicine? With your tiny arms and legs, wow, it can be done with three fingers..." Chen An gestured.
"Hmph, get to work. If the food isn't tasty, you'll have to pay for the venue and usage fees." Qin Qiao snorted.
"Don't worry, just sit here, cheer for me, and sing some songs to cheer us up."
"I'm not helping you at all." Qin Qiao spat in dissatisfaction.
Chen An was busy in the kitchen, preparing the ingredients with a focused look.
Fortunately, I had prepared and brought some common seasonings. Otherwise, with the few seasonings available at Qin Qiao's house, I would have had to cook the food in plain water or eat it with pickles.
Qin Qiao seemed to be fiddling with her phone nonchalantly, but her eyes would occasionally glance at Chen An. Looking at his skillful and quick movements, she couldn't help but feel a hint of anticipation in her heart.
After a while, as the ingredients were put into the pot, the tempting aroma began to waft from the kitchen.
Qin Qiao sniffed subconsciously and swallowed her saliva unconsciously. This guy really wasn't bragging. Just by smelling the fragrance, his craftsmanship must be correct.
