Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Although the school already had the key points of knowledge listed by Zhai Jing and Le Wan, how could they explain this? It was like being in the same class for a hundred years. Everyone was given the same teaching materials and listened to the same lessons. However, some people could quickly grasp the knowledge, while others could not grasp the main points.
Therefore, as the owner of the notes, if Zhai Jing could speak for himself and give some pointers, it would undoubtedly be of greater help to the students.
However, Zhai Jing said,
“It’s possible, but this notebook was compiled by me and Student Le Wan. If I want to give a lecture, she’s actually more suitable than me.”
The principal thought for a moment. It did make sense. After all, Zhai Jing was a genius, while Le Wan had caught up from behind. In comparison, Le Wan’s experience was probably more suitable for ordinary students.
Hence, he clapped his hands and said,
“Then you’ll be in charge of the first half of the lecture, and Le Wan will be in charge of the second half.”
When Zhai Jing came out of the principal’s office, he received a call from his mother.
“Are you coming back so soon?”
Zhai Jing looked at the time. It was almost noon. He asked curiously,
“It’s almost time to come back. What’s the matter?”
“I went to buy pork trotters this morning. It’s been braised for almost three hours now and it’s already rotten. I was thinking that if you’re free, we should send the things to the Le family as soon as possible.”
Zhai Jing didn’t expect her to act so quickly. She had only said that she would do this last night, and now the pork trotters were already braised.
“Alright, I’ll come back now.”
After hanging up the call with Mother Zhai, Zhai Jing called Le Wan and told her about the pig trotters.
Speaking of braised pork trotters, Le Wan had actually eaten it once. That was before her relationship with Zhai Jing had been confirmed. During one of her tutoring sessions, Zhai Jing had specially brought a soft braised pork trotter to her with a lunch box.
According to Zhai Jing, the pork trotters were braised for Mother Zhai, who was in the hospital. As there was too much braised meat, he gave some to her.
Although the pork trotters were already cold when she got them, Le Wan still enjoyed them and praised his cooking.
Zhai Jing said that he had learned his cooking skills from Mother Zhai. However, his stewed food didn’t taste as good as Mother Zhai’s.
In Le Wan’s opinion, the braised pork trotters were already very delicious. However, he said that Mother Zhai’s cooking was even better. Didn’t that mean that she would have the chance to eat even better pork trotters now?
At the thought of this, Le Wan felt like she was about to drool. She quickly said,
“Alright, alright, hurry up and send it over.”
When Zhai Jing heard this, he thought to himself, As expected. He was glad that Le Wan was a person who was easily satisfied. Otherwise, Mother Zhai would be worried.
“Then where are you now? Are you at home or outside?” Zhai Jing heard the noise coming from Le Wan. It sounded like there was a breeze, but it didn’t seem to be indoors.
At the mention of this matter, Le Wan felt a little helpless and complained,
“Don’t talk about it. It’s rare for us to have a good day’s rest, but my big brother woke us up early in the morning. He said that there was a lake in Wade Town where we could fish, but because of the incident with the Watson family, we didn’t catch any fish, so he felt that it wasn’t satisfying enough and he dragged us to the lake early in the morning to watch him fish.”
Zhai Jing was a little surprised.
“Eldest Brother is actually so free? Papa Le didn’t drag him to work?” Le Wan chuckled.
“Daddy wants to, but Eldest Brother is so sneaky. Taking advantage of his morning run, he went out early in the morning. His father thought that he was so eager to go to work, so he even praised him at home. In the end, Big Brother waited for him to go to work before running home again. Then, he pulled me and Little Brother up the mountain.”
When Papa Le heard that Big Brother Le didn’t come to work, he was furious.
How did Le Wan know about this? It was because Big Brother Le had turned off his phone and Father Le couldn’t find him. After knowing that they were fishing together, he called her.
Of course, Father Le couldn’t bear to be angry at his precious daughter. He only asked Le Wan to pass the phone to Big Brother Le.
“I’m going to give him a good scolding. How can he become so unambitious at such a young age? He doesn’t even go to work. Has he gone on a holiday and become lazy?”
If Big Brother Le was lazy and became used to not taking over the company, how could he retire and spend time with his wife?
Therefore, Papa Le was determined to prevent his son from showing such signs. He had to nip this lazy behavior in the bud..
