Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten
Chapter 474: Stay Away from Fools
CHAPTER 474: CHAPTER 474: STAY AWAY FROM FOOLS
Zhao Guangran listened to Gong Ruwen talking about Gong Ruini’s quirks, "Ni Zi, hasn’t she always been like this?"
"Ah, has she always been like this?" Zhao Guangran’s words left Gong Ruwen dumbfounded. How could it be like this?
How did Zhao Guangran know about this, leaving him very confused? He always considered himself to know his sister very well, yet he never knew that she had such a habit.
No way, Zhao Guangran must be messing with people again. Isn’t this what he always does?
Gong Ruwen looked at Zhao Xuran, only his answer could be trusted.
Ugh, only trusting what the big brother says. Gong Ruwen’s blatant distrust really hurt Zhao Guangran, but what could he do?
"Yeah, I think so too." Zhao Xuran had actually noticed long ago, but he thought it was normal. Everyone likes to interact more with a smart and good-looking child.
He hadn’t expected Gong Ruini to have so many expectations for her brother. Zhao Xuran really felt a lot of pressure for the child in Cai Meina’s belly.
"More than being pretty, I’m worried that Ni Zi might want a child smarter than Ban Xia and Zisu." As for whether the child was pretty, even if not, that’s innate and can’t be changed. But becoming a smart kid is still possible.
Zhao Xuran didn’t know what a normal kid should be like, but Ban Xia and Zisu were definitely smart. If they are looking for a child smarter than them, the pressure is really hard to describe.
Could it be true, looking for a child smarter than Ban Xia and them? That’s not an easy task.
Gong Ruwen had previously wondered what to do if his brother wasn’t good-looking, but now he realized he’d forgotten something important—what if his brother wasn’t smart?
Thinking of Zhao Guangran, Gong Ruwen really worried about his brother. Sigh, he didn’t hope his brother could be as smart as Ban Xia and them, but at least not as dumb as Zhao Guangran.
The thought of being as dumb as Zhao Guangran made Gong Ruwen feel like it’s the end of the world. What to do? He couldn’t let his brother become stupid.
The twins put down their brushes. Even though they were busy writing and hadn’t expressed any opinions, they’d heard everything, "He shouldn’t be like Second Brother."
"Otherwise, Sister Ni Zi would be worried."
"Yeah, we can’t let Sister Ni Zi worry."
"Right, there’s already someone as dumb as Second Brother. If another dumb person came along, wouldn’t that keep Big Brother busy?"
"Yeah, we can’t let Big Brother be too busy. He’s already busy enough tutoring Second Brother."
Zhao Guangran’s veins bulged as he listened. These two fools dared to say such things in his face. Did they think he, as their second brother, wouldn’t educate them?
Zhao Xuran listened to Ban Xia and the others’ increasingly outrageous comments, and saw his younger brother’s face turning ugly. If they continued, who knew how Guangran would explode.
In fact, Zhao Xuran knew this brother really wasn’t dumb. But with Gong Ruini as a comparison upfront and two very smart ones in Ban Xia and the others chasing behind, it would make anyone think Zhao Guangran wasn’t smart.
"Yeah, brother, make sure mom stays away from Guangran." Lying on the kang in the house, Gong Ruini had been thinking for a long time, with no leads. She planned to go out and chat to see if she could get some inspiration.
She didn’t expect that after taking a few steps out, she’d hear the content of Ban Xia and others’ chat, which brightened her eyes.
Yes, how did she forget something so important? Gong Ruini was all sorts of annoyed at herself. How could she be so stupid?
She focused on letting Gong Tao give Cai Meina prenatal education, but forgot to keep the family’s fool Zhao Guangran away. What if Guangran’s stupidity really infected her brother?
Gong Ruini had a deep impression of Zhao Guangran’s foolishness. For example, when Gong Ruwen got a bit close to him, she felt her own brother had become a bit dumb.
That was already a big kid. If it was a baby, wouldn’t it be easier to be affected?
Gong Ruini really couldn’t imagine her future smart brother being influenced by the fool Zhao Guangran, so the best solution was to stay away from fools and to interact more with smart kids.
"Ban Xia, Zisu, how about you interact more with Aunt Cai in the future?" Gong Ruini didn’t care how Zhao Guangran would react with rage. She just followed her instincts.
It wasn’t that Gong Ruini didn’t want to be more tactful, but Ban Xia and others’ actions would betray her intentions. In order to prevent Zhao Guangran from making various desperate moves and rushing in front of Cai Meina’s belly to do something foolish, why not?
Some things Gong Ruini could say, but could Cai Meina speak like that in front of Zhao Guangran?
Of course not. After all, Cai Meina is Zhao Guangran’s elder. Such obvious disdain, is it okay?
Gong Ruini’s straightforward words really angered Zhao Guangran. Was she that disdainful of him? "Hmph, I have to interact more with Aunt Cai."
"I’m actually hoping there’ll be a brother to take my place." Although Zhao Guangran really didn’t think he was an idiot, he was overwhelmed that everyone here was smart, making him feel a lot of pressure.
Zhao Guangran cared about his reputation. Even if he’d made a name for himself outside, his status at home not improving genuinely made him anxious.
"Impossible. I won’t let anyone replace you." Gong Ruini stated Zhao Guangran shouldn’t even think about it.
Hmph, even if her brother really wasn’t as smart as Zhao Guangran, it’s fine, as long as this child can study hard and not give up as Guangran did.
Although a child’s intelligence is important, even a clumsy bird can start flying early. Moreover, Gong Tao and his wife got into college. No matter how they did it, at least that gene exists.
There’s also Cai Ming’s genes. He has even smarter genes than Cai Meina. The more Gong Ruini thought about it, the more she felt that their family’s children would not be fools.
While everyone here was talking about having a smarter brother than Zhao Guangran, the Red Flag Brigade was all stirred up. Don’t be fooled by the absence of educated youths in their village; they couldn’t help but appreciate Zhao Gang and Gong Tao’s couples. They couldn’t help but be clever and even got into university in Beijing.
Oh, no, they should also count Cai Ming. At first, he changed his residence registration to become a teacher at the Red Flag Brigade.
The Red Flag Brigade had five people apply for college, and all five got in. That’s a one hundred percent enrollment rate. How could the brigade’s cadres not be excited?
Compared to the excitement in the Red Flag Brigade, the other villages were abuzz too. Previously, everyone knew Gong Tao and others had decent grades, but as for whether they could get into a good university, they had no confidence. Now they’re sure Zhao Gang and others would definitely go to Beijing as college students.
Even though they’re rural people, they think about a lot of things. So they quickly made a decision.
