Artificial Idiocy (3)
One day, sheâs going to pull it aside and give it a beating.
Jiang Xiaoman refused to say anything no matter what. Jiang Xiumei was also helpless and angrily said, âWow, Jiang Xiaoman. Youâve never been so disobedient before, and you never talked back to me. Youâre not my dear baby anymore.â
Jiang Xiaoman snorted and said while sobbing, âYes! Iâm rebellious now!â
â......â
It was not a good thing for a child to be too smart. At times like this, it could make someone really furious.
Jiang Xiumei smiled furiously.
Xiaoman cried miserably, but she did not coax her.
This matter was too serious, and she needed to teach her a lesson. Otherwise, in the future she would go to the roof and take off the tiles.
Jiang Xiaoman cried all night, feeling very sad and aggrieved. The more she thought about it, the sadder she got.
She was now the little cabbage in the ground, swaying in the wind and drenched by rain, wanted by no one.
Grandma didnât want her anymore.
Jiang Xiaoman cried all night.
The system couldnât bear it anymore. It comforted her and said, âHost, donât be sad. Weâll find other opportunities in the futureââ
She felt that she could only ask her little friend to take her in.
She wanted to let Grandma know that children also had feelings!
She wanted to let her grandma know that children also had a temper!
She couldnât just spank her all she wanted!
She was going to show her up good!
Jiang Xiaoman made up her mind and used the trick the system taught her, âsoft mouth, short hands4â. She was going to bring a lot of delicious food for her friend Yu Qingshi. That way, it would be hard for him to reject her request.
She was going to stay at his place for a few days.
To win him over, she used on point to exchange ten candies from the system.
This candy was costly. It was the most expensive candy the system had, and she couldnât bear to eat them.
She planned to give them all to him.
Jiang Xiaoman cried and prepared her stuff, secretly stuffing some clothes in her schoolbag. She was waiting for Monday to go to school.
She was very sad and angry.
When she arrived at the kindergarten, she wanted to give Yu Qingshi the sweets. However, she found out that he did not come to school today.
Footnotes:
3. Just fierce on the outside, but without real substance
4. This is the same idiom that has been mentioned a few times in this series. Eat someoneâs food and your mouth becomes soft (so you canât scold them), take someoneâs gift and your hand becomes short (so you canât hit them). Itâs very wordy and awkward though (the raw is only 2 x 4 word long) so Iâm shortening them to this.
