Rise of the Poor

Chapter 34: Chew food thoroughly

Views:

On the rocks by the river at the foot of the hill, Zhu Ping'an and the scheming little loli stared at each other, and the atmosphere was a little weird for a moment.

"Why did you call me over here?" Zhu Ping'an spread out his chubby hands and asked helplessly.

"Haha, you spoke first, you lose." The dark little loli jumped up from the stone excitedly, clapping her hands.

You lose, sister, when did I play the game of who speaks first with you? Zhu Pingan was speechless. By the way, this girl changed into a new set of clothes. She doesn't have to be so willful even if she has money. She changes clothes every day. She is obviously a little fox, why does she dress like a butterfly? Although it looks good, it's too wasteful. She wears a set every day and then throws it away.

"Hey, what do you mean by rolling your eyes?" Li Shu, a black-bellied little girl, pinched her waist and walked up to Zhu Ping'an and asked angrily, "No, I'm going to tell Master Sun that you didn't pay the tuition and even eavesdropped on the class..."

I'm afraid of you!

"Okay, miss, just say what you want to say." Zhu Ping'an was completely defeated by the threat of the sinister little loli and said with a sigh.

As expected, he still looks like a bastard, which makes people unhappy!

"Ah, what's your attitude? Believe it or not, I'll tell the Master!"

The sinister little loli Li Shu pouted, stretched out her chubby little hand and gently poked Zhu Ping'an on the forehead twice with an unfriendly look on her face.

"I believe it, I believe it, of course I believe it."

I bow my head when I should. I have this awareness. I am not the kind of person who would rather save face than live in misery. What's wrong with bowing my head and bending my waist? The strong wind knows the strong grass. The grass bends under the strong wind, but it will still be strong enough to accept the sunshine and rain after the wind and rain stop. The heavy snow presses down the green pine, but you are a green pine with a strong character and don't bend. You are fine in the heavy snow, but what about the blizzard? After the blizzard, the green pine will break. As long as you are rooted in the land and do not abandon your position, it doesn't matter if you bend your waist and bow your head.

"You were eavesdropping on the class. Was it interesting? Tell me what you heard." The black-bellied little Lolita's big round eyes were full of curiosity. Of course, she couldn't change her arrogant and conceited habits. "Humph, I'm giving you this opportunity because I feel sorry for you."

"After listening to the Three Character Classic, I realized that man is inherently good at birth. Natures are similar, but habits make them different..." Zhu Ping'an listed them one by one as if they were his own treasures.

"Are you going to waste your opportunity?" The scheming little loli Li Shu was very dissatisfied.

"I also listened to the Thousand Character Classic, which says that the sky and the earth are dark yellow, the universe is vast and ancient. The sun and the moon wax and wane, and the stars are lined up..." Zhu Ping'an continued.

"Forget it, I'd better go tell the Master."

The scheming little loli stood up from the stone, took a step with her short legs, and looked like she was going to tell you about something bad.

"There is also a story about a little red dress." Seeing that the black-bellied little Loli was pretending again, Zhu Ping'an had to bring out the story of coaxing the children in the orphanage.

"Oh, then I'll just listen to it reluctantly."

The scheming little Lolita retracted her short legs and sat back on the stone.

Sure enough, fairy tales are better for comforting children.

"Once upon a time, there was a little girl who was loved by everyone..." Zhu Ping'an spoke slowly.

"Everyone loves me, but is anyone as cute as me?" The dark little loli interrupted Zhu Pingan and asked.

Well

The big bad wolf in the story is cuter than you! Of course, I can't say this out loud.

"Not as cute as you..." Zhu Ping'an curled the corners of his mouth and said against his will.

The scheming little loli was satisfied, and arrogantly asked Zhu Pingan to start talking again.

"Once upon a time, there was a little girl who was loved by everyone. She liked to wear a very beautiful red skirt given to her by her grandmother, so people called her Little Red Skirt."

The black-bellied little Lolita curled her lips and whispered, "I won't wear the same clothes every day."

"One day, the mother said to Little Red Skirt: 'Grandma is sick, please help me take some snacks to visit her.' The mother also specifically instructed: 'Grandma lives in the forest, the journey is long, you must be careful on the road, don't play around!'"

Well, Zhu Ping'an changed the story of Little Red Riding Hood into the story of Little Red Skirt. In the Ming Dynasty, no girls wore hats, so it was changed to Little Red Skirt.

"Little Red Skirt met a wolf in the forest. She had never seen a wolf before, and she didn't know that wolves were ferocious, so she told the wolf the purpose of coming to the forest. After the wolf knew it, he tricked Little Red Skirt into picking mushrooms... ... The Big Bad Wolf ran to the cabin in the forest and pretended to be Little Red Skirt's voice and knocked on the door of her grandmother... ... 'Gulp!' The Big Bad Wolf swallowed Little Red Skirt's grandmother whole. ... ... The Big Bad Wolf pretended to be the grandmother... ... The Big Bad Wolf opened his mouth wide, and with a 'Gulp!', he swallowed Little Red Skirt into his stomach without even biting her."

"Have you eaten everything?"

"Later, a woodcutter came and took out a pair of large scissors. While the big bad wolf was still asleep, he used his fastest and most careful hands to cut open the wolf's belly. Grandma and Little Red Skirt were rescued from the wolf's belly."

Seeing the scheming little girl listening to the story attentively, Zhu Pingan sighed that children are more receptive to new things. If this story is told to adults of this era, they will definitely not accept it. They will ask how the big bad wolf can talk, can the wolf's stomach hold an adult and a child, and why the person eaten in the wolf's stomach can come out safely...

After telling the adapted version of the Little Red Riding Hood story, Zhu Pingan asked, "What did you learn from this story?"

"Chew your food thoroughly..."

Hearing this, the scheming little loli blinked and tilted her head and said.

Chew your food thoroughly!!!

It’s not this at all!

The story of Little Red Riding Hood warns little girls not to chat with strangers casually, not to play too much, and to go home early!

Zhu Ping'an also hopes that this story can make the black-bellied little Loli stay away from a stranger like him, and tell her to stop playing outside and go home quickly to be a lady who never goes out of the house.

But he didn't expect that the black-bellied little loli didn't play by the rules at all. She said that food should be chewed thoroughly before eating, which shocked Zhu Ping'an.

The scheming little Lolita listened to the story with great interest. The story told by this poor little girl was different from those told by others and seemed very interesting.

"Well, seeing that you work so hard, I'll give you another chance. Tell me another one."

The black-bellied little loli said something in a proud and arrogant manner.

"Uh..." Zhu Pingan was stunned for a moment, then looked at the sun in the sky. The teacher must have finished the get out of class by now, "Okay, I'll tell you another story about the Frog Prince."

"Once upon a time, there lived a king. All his daughters were very beautiful, especially the youngest one. Even the sun, which had seen everything, was surprised by her beauty every time it shone on her face. Near the king's palace was a large dark forest. In the forest, under an old bodhi tree, there was a well..."

The scheming little Lolita listened carefully and thought that the story told by this little turtle was quite interesting and what he said was also good.

What do you mean that even the sun is surprised by her beauty every time it shines on her face? Is this a disguised way of saying that I am beautiful... Oh, it makes me a little shy...

"The little princess doesn't like this ugly frog..."

When Zhu Ping'an got to this point, he was interrupted by the black-bellied little girl mumbling, "If it were me, I would dislike this ugly frog even more. A toad wants to eat swan meat. Humph, I like the best man in the world. He has to be the top scholar. I want to be an official's wife..."

The little brat is so shameless that he always talks about the dowry of 10,000 yuan to become an official's wife. Well, such a young brat doesn't even have the concept of shame.

"From then on, the handsome prince and the beautiful little princess lived a happy life..." Zhu Ping'an finally finished telling the story of the Frog Prince, and was interrupted several times by the sinister little Lolita.

"What? A toad is a toad. It will never become a prince... You can stew a toad or braise it, but it can never become a prince..."
