Chapter 170

A Day in Jiang Xiaoman’s Life (2)

“You’re very smart, Teacher is very happy.” The teacher coughed and said, “Then, go back to your seat and pay attention.”

Yu Qingshi returned to his seat, but Xiaoman didn’t budge yet.

As soon as she lifted her head, her face was bursting with tears. She said with a small cry, “Then, can Teacher not tell our parents? Grandma is very fierce…”

“…Teacher won’t tell them.”

Jiang Xiaoman cried bitterly. “Wuu wuu wuu, thank you Teacher. Teacher is so kind.”

Ah, this was such a good trick. Who was it that first taught her? She already forgot. But it really worked well. Crying really was a child’s most powerful weapon. You could have anything as soon as you go wuu wuu wuu.

Jiang Xiaoman was very happy.

System: “……”

Originally, it wanted to give her some tasks, but suddenly the words got stuck in its mouth and it didn’t know what to say.

It strangely felt that giving so many tasks to nurture its host to be a villainess was just adding flowers to a brocade, not sending coal in the winter2.

But it never seemed to succeed in controlling her and making her follow the plot.

The system was in deep confusion and thought about it for a long time.

Well, since it couldn’t figure out the reason, then there was no need to think about it too much. It would just issue the task!

[Long-term mission: gather hostility and isolate yourself from your classmates. A villain does not need friends; only a lone villain is truly invincible!

Reward: Collect one person’s negative emotions, reward +100 points]

Jiang Xiaoman didn’t want to do this task.

She said, “I don’t want to do it. I never fight with kids.”

The system wanted to persuade her, but after thinking about it, the last achievement reward was also something the host didn’t want to do, but got completed anyway. So the system chose to shut its mouth.

Who knows, maybe the task it gave might get completed by itself?

Its host had her own ways to complete the tasks.

The system said, a bit bored, “Anyways, it’s a long-term task. You can take it slowly, host.”

Long-term meant she could do it anytime, which meant she could choose to do it or not.

“Okay.” Jiang Xiaoman understood, and was very happy.

In the afternoon, there were two language lessons.

In this lesson, Yu Qingshi finally discovered the secret that had been troubling him for a long time – what Xiaoman had been busy doing.

The language teacher assigned the children a homework assignment – to write a diary.

They had to write down everything that happened in their day, to train the children’s ability to write and gather materials.

Of course, the one with the highest completion rate, the one who wrote the diary most diligently was Jiang Xiaoman. Only she maintained strong interest in the homework, and persisted in writing and recording her experiences everyday.

She got the highest score. The language teacher liked her very much and asked her to stand at the podium to read out her rich and interesting day, and share the fun with her classmates.

So, Jiang Xiaoman went up.

“Today is Monday. Grandma baked me a flatbread. It was delicious! Grandma said that this was her unique secret recipe, and no one sold anything like this in the city. After breakfast, I went to school. At school, I completed assignments, took a break, and then school was over. After school, I went to hobby class. Today, I saw the teacher break bricks in hobby class. Today was a really happy day.”

“Today is Tuesday. I ate the leftover pancake from yesterday. Grandma walked me to school again! I went to school and did assignments. I got first place again today! After school, I went to hobby class again. The hobby class teacher said that if I persisted, I would be able to enter the advanced class in the future. Today was a really happy day.”

“Today is……”

So that’s what she had been up to.

Yu Qingshi finally understood.

Jiang Xiaoman had been so busy and tired everyday that she didn’t feel like talking to him anymore because she had gone to this hobby class.

Martial arts class, taekwondo…that was Jiang Xiaoman’s hobby class. No wonder he couldn’t figure it out.

Today was also another ordinary day. After school, Jiang Xiaoman happily went to hobby class again.

She fell in love with the hobby class last time after watching the teacher punch through bricks with his bare hands.

She thought that once she learnt it, it would be so amazing. If she could punch through bricks with her bare hands, then she should also be able to block Grandma’s cane!

She wanted to learn!

But the teacher also said that this technique was too hard and was not suitable for children in the foundation class. If she was still interested in continuing the classes in the future, he would teach her the more advanced techniques.

You needed to take your time when studying. You couldn’t become fat with one meal. Xiaoman understood this principle.

So, she went to hobby class even more diligently. She didn’t know that she was soon going to have one more classmate.

After Yu Qingshi went home, he blushed and flushed before finally mustering up the courage to bring up hobby classes again.

Yu Wencheng was confused, didn’t they already have two teachers at home? Why did he still want more?

“I… I don’t want to have class at home.” Yu Qingshi played with his fingers while saying in a low voice. “I want to study together with Xiaoman.”

His voice became smaller and smaller as he got more and more embarrassed.

Yu Wencheng understood immediately, and he felt torn and a bit uncomfortable.

So that was it.

What his son wanted was not hobby classes or private tutors at all. None of those things were important; what was important was being able to study together with Xiaoman.

Sure enough, once a son grows up, his father would not be able to manage him anymore.

Yu Wencheng was half happy and half sad.

There was nothing wrong with this, so he quickly made the arrangements. There was just one more question…

Yu Wencheng looked at him and asked, “Why didn’t you just say so earlier?”

What kind of taciturn mess was his son? How many days had it been? Did he get sick because he kept it all bottled up inside?

“…” Wuu wuu wuu, he was shy!!!

Footnote:

2.  Adding flowers to a brocade: a brocade is already beautiful, so adding flowers is just cherry on top, nothing really important.

Coal is critical to survive the cold winter, so it means doing something very important.
