"Dad, here is a homework assigned by the science teacher, requiring mom and dad to participate. But mom has been busy recently because she is about to have a baby, so she hasn't been able to help Guoguo complete the homework. Guoguo is the only one in the class who hasn't finished it." Guoguo put down the handle in his hand, pouted and said bitterly.
Lin Yi was stunned when he heard this. After listening carefully, he realized that this task was mainly for parents to supervise whether Xiao Guoguo could persevere in completing the observation task.
The specific assignment is to plant a plant, then observe it for a month, and record the growth of the plant every day.
Lin Yi thought this was a good assignment, so he asked, "What does Guoguo want to plant?"
Speaking of this question, Xiao Guoguo's big watery eyes suddenly narrowed into a slit. He trotted to open his schoolbag, took out a natural science textbook and ran over.
"Dad, I want to plant peach blossoms on the balcony. It will definitely be beautiful." Xiao Guoguo gestured exaggeratedly, hoping to get Lin Yi's approval.
Lin Yi didn't have any other opinions about planting peach trees, but the biggest problem was that it took many years for a peach tree to mature, and nothing could be observed within a month.
"A peach tree won't work, little fool. It grows too slowly." Lin Yi said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
Hearing this, Guo Guo shrank her hands, pouted in distress, then flipped through the book again, looked at Lin Yi in confusion and said, "Then what should we plant, Dad?"
"You can grow some vegetables or something like that because these things grow fast."
Guoguo's eyes lit up, and she jumped excitedly, "Grow apples, big apples. Guoguo likes big apples the best."
Lin Yi couldn't help laughing again. Although Xiao Guoguo had excellent academic performance and was sensible, he was like most spoiled little Guoguos. He had never done housework and had basically never bought vegetables by himself.
In terms of common sense, it is still at the primary school level.
"Little fool, apples are fruits, not vegetables."
"Oh?" Little Guoguo scratched his head. Guoguo now had some understanding of his own. He was no longer the one who believed whatever Lin Yi said before. He argued, "Humph, Dad lied to me. Why does mom often make apples, grapes and bananas into a dish for Guoguo? They are vegetables."
Lin Yi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said with a smile: "That's a fruit salad, not a dish."
The little thing thought about it and wanted to stick to his point of view, but found that it seemed to be the case, so he accepted Lin Yi's point of view reluctantly.
Seeing that the child didn't know what to choose, Lin Yi recommended: "I suggest you plant cabbage and carrots. Of course, if Guoguo likes to eat potatoes and bean sprouts, you can also plant them."
For Lin Yi, who has been engaged in farming since childhood, it is no problem for him to help Xiao Guoguo grow vegetables.
"Guoguo wants to eat bean sprouts, potatoes, and carrots. White radishes seem to be delicious too. Why don't we plant some more..."
Lin Yi waved his hand to interrupt, "No, you can't observe so many, just plant one!"
Guoguo pouted regretfully and shook her head, causing her two ponytails to swing back and forth, making her look extremely cute.
Lin Yi was really defeated by Xiao Guoguo and had no choice but to give her another choice.
"Bean sprouts and cabbage, Dad will only grow these two." Guoguo shouted excitedly.
"Okay, okay, okay!" Lin Yi said with a knowing smile.
Now that the decision has been made, start preparing.
