Xiao Ming and Jiang Yifan ran to the cafeteria, and Jiang Yifan found Xiaoâs mother, pulling on her apron and saying, âGrandma, can you give me and Bro Xiaoming three hundred loaches?â
Xiaoâs mother asked with curiosity, âLittle Fanfan, what do you guys need so many loaches for?â
Jiang Yifan rubbed his little hands together and replied, âI was punished by Mommy. Mommy said I have to dig out three hundred loaches in Small Mud Gully with Bro Xiaoming.â
Only then did Xiaoâs mother notice that the children were covered in mud.
Xiaoâs mother laughed and said, âLittle Fanfan, did you go play in Mud Gully again and got punished by your mommy?â
Admitting without denying, Jiang Yifan said, âYeah, I got punished. I was supposed to catch one hundred loaches in Mud Gully, and Xiaoming was supposed to catch two hundred. But there were no loaches in the Mud Gully at all, so Xiaoming and I came to find you.â
Xiaoâs mother wiped her hands on her apron and smiled, âThere are no loaches in Mud Gully, so you came to cheat with me?â
Jiang Yifan rolled his eyes and said, âGrandma, I know you love me the most and should be willing to help us, right?â
He showed a flattering smile on his face.
Xiao Ming also looked at Xiaoâs mother with anticipation.
Unexpectedly, Xiaoâs mother shook her head with a smile, âThat wonât do! Little Fanfan, although I do love you, we still have to obey your mommyâs orders. I donât dare to help you.â
Jiang Yifanâs expression stiffened, and disbelief showed on his little face.
Why would this happen?
Usually, his grandma cared for him the most, and every time his mommy scolded him, he would complain to her and be sure to succeed.
But why did it not work this time?
Jiang Yifan asked with a hint of sadness, âGrandma, why? Iâm still so young, and if Iâm hungry, I wonât grow tall.â
Xiaoâs mother patted his little head and smiled, âOf course, I canât bear it.â
Jiang Yifanâs expression stiffened again.
Why would it be like this?
Even though Grandma usually cared the most about him, whenever Mommy threatened him, he would complain, getting her on his side every single time.
But why did it not work this time?
Jiang Yifan appeared rather sad, asking, âGrandma, why? Iâm so young, and if I go hungry, I wonât grow tall.â
Xiaoâs mother laughed, âOh, you child. Your mommy said you canât have rice, but she never said you canât have vegetables.â
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yifanâs eyes lit up, and he immediately understood.
Jiang Yifan exclaimed happily, âRight, Grandma always has a solution! Grandma, can you help me find a way to get those three hundred loaches?â
Xiaoâs mother shook her head, âLittle Fanfan, youâll have to figure this out yourself. Grandma already helped you once; if I help you again, Iâm afraid your mom might punish me, too.â
Xiao Ming and Jiang Yifan,
Xiao Ming and Jiang Yifan only ate their favorite foods and snacks in the cafeteria besides their main meal of rice.
However, after the two of them had eaten their fill, they began to rack their brains to figure out how to get loaches.
âAh!â both sighed at the same time, âWhere can we get so many loaches? Grandma refuses to help us.â
In Xiao Family Village, everyone treated Xiao Jinliâs words as if they were holy.
So, apart from Xiaoâs mother, no one else would help them.
However, in terms of education, Xiaoâs mother couldnât always defy Xiao Jinli as it was not good for the childrenâs upbringing.
After sighing for a while, Jiang Yifan suddenly brightened up and said to Xiao Ming, âBro Xiaoming, I know what to do!â
Xiao Ming, â⦠Huh?â
