Chapter 173 Little Fool
Chapter 173 Little Fool
An'an pressed her face against the window, watching the occasional cows and sheep passing by on the roadside, and exclaimed curiously, "Cows~, this big cow is much bigger than a piglet~, moo moo~"
"I really want to raise cattle!"
Lu Junxing, who was closely watching the road conditions and somewhat worried about Wang Jinbao driving, heard the troublemaker's words and was afraid that she would call Lu Jing again and ask him to take the cow home to raise.
He had only recently finished dealing with the pigs at home, after going through the approval process and securing land to raise them in a remote corner of the community.
He didn't want to bring the cow home to serve anymore: "No! That was just your imagination!"
"No way! I saw it perfectly clearly, don't try to fool me~ I'm being really smart today~"
An'an, still unconvinced, put her hands on her chubby hips and said, "Hmph~, I just want to raise this big cow. This cow is so big, with so much meat on its body~, it must be even stronger than a pig!"
"What are you thinking? Can you even afford to support him?"
Zhuangzhuang: "Yeah~, An'an! This cow is so big, it must eat a lot!"
Ji Jianshu: "Yes, we need to herd the cattle. We have to go to school, so we don't have time to herd them!"
Before An'an could even lament that they couldn't raise cattle anymore, a flock of sheep appeared not far away and crossed the road right in front of their parked car, bleating loudly.
An'an saw a group of cute, sturdy sheep, her eyes lit up, and she poked her head out and waved to them: "Baa~, do you want to go home with us? I have pigs at home too~, and cats and dogs too, we can play with you~"
Zhuangzhuang huddled together, wanting to greet the sheep: "Baa~, hello~, I'm Zhuangzhuang!"
Zhuangzhuang, who still loves to eat, couldn't be serious for more than two seconds before slurping his saliva and asking, "Does this goat have milk? I drank goat milk at my grandpa's hometown during the Chinese New Year. It was so delicious!"
Ji Jianshu analyzed objectively and rationally: "Only ewes produce milk, and this one looks like it's mostly rams, which are usually larger than ewes."
"Look, these sheep have large horns and bushy beards, and the ewes have very thick beards! Those smaller ones are lambs!"
Seeing Ji Jianshu explaining things to the two little fools, Lu Junxing affirmed his words: "Xiao Shu is right! Generally speaking, rams are larger than ewes, and rams also have larger heads than ewes."
"Ramen's horns are thicker than ewes' and generally have spiral-shaped projections, while ewes' horns are thinner and shorter,"
As Lu Junxing spoke, he opened the window wider so that the younger ones could see: "Look, those sheep in the middle surrounded by ewes, the ones with shorter horns are the ewes!"
An'an: "Wow~, that's amazing~"
"Don't you think reading and learning are essential? Hmm? Look how smart Xiao Shu is just now, he likes to read popular science books?"
Zhuangzhuang: "That makes some sense, but even if it makes sense, I still don't like reading!"
"Me too! My brain isn't big enough to hold that much information! I still need to learn about lots of delicious foods. The four-eyed guy said there are still many things in this world that I haven't tried yet!"
An'an patted her little head with a hint of regret, worried that her brain wouldn't be able to hold all the delicious food in the future. She even shook it from side to side, trying to make sure the knowledge already in her brain was packed in tightly.
Zhuangzhuang: "Really? Then I'll save some of my head to pretend I've never tasted anything delicious before!"
Lu Junxing was helpless when he heard the two brainless children talking like this. Seeing that the sheep had crossed the road and their RV was slowly moving, he went forward to continue to observe the road conditions.
Ji Jianshu, however, is still young and doesn't understand that children sometimes talk nonsense. He continues to persistently impart knowledge to An'an and Zhuangzhuang.
"Our brains are constantly developing. Right now, we're still young, and our ability to process and store memories is relatively weak. As we grow up, our memory will..."
Before long, An'an and Zhuangzhuang, who were just getting drowsy and on the verge of falling asleep, stopped at a rest stop to have lunch.
As soon as the car stopped, An'an and Zhuangzhuang immediately covered their heads and hurriedly got off. Zhuangzhuang even breathed a sigh of relief after getting off.
"Phew~, that was close! My brain almost filled up with all that knowledge! Brother Xiaoshu has been talking about so much; my brain was almost overflowing!"
An An patted her chest and said thankfully, "Yeah~, I was even trying to pretend I'd never seen these kinds of delicious foods before! Four-Eyes said there's curry, cicada pupae, spicy snails, a mixed stew... so many delicious things I've never seen before!"
Zhuangzhuang, realizing his head was a bit full, pulled Ji Jianshu aside and explained to Yangyang, Duoduo, and Shen Yu how to distinguish between male and female rams, as well as the basics of brain development.
Seeing this, An'an was unwilling to listen again, so she went over to Lu Junxing, who was tidying up cooking tools outside the RV, and ended up making things worse for him.
"This is a small job, there's no need for Mr. Lu's help. Go do someone else a big favor!"
An'an also felt that Lu Junxing's words made sense; only capable people could be of great help. She quickly put down the small chair that Lu Junxing had just opened.
"Well, they've gone off to do something important, aren't you sure you don't need their help?"
Before leaving, An'an felt it wasn't right to leave her father like that. She rubbed her little dress with her hands and said shyly, "Well, I'm really leaving now~"
Lu Junxing unfolded the chair she had just tried to close and rearranged it, inwardly complaining that Jiang Jun was really stingy; even the camping chair was of poor quality and wouldn't stay in place.
He tried to brace himself with his hand and found it loose and somewhat unstable, but given the limited resources available while traveling, he decided to leave it at that.
An'an wandered over to Xu Tinglan's side, because she was the best cook here. Her little scheme was also quite obvious—she was hungry and wanted to take advantage of the excuse of helping out to see if she could get a bite to eat.
After discovering that Xu Tinglan only had scattered bread and biscuits, she changed direction and headed towards Shen Shaocheng, since she had verified Cheng Ge's cooking skills in the previous episode.
That's the second best!
Seeing Shen Shaocheng cooking something on an induction cooker from afar, smelling the rich aroma and a familiar, delicious scent, she skipped and hopped over.
"Brother Cheng~, I'm here to help you~"
"Oh my, An'an's here! You're so thoughtful!"
Seeing An'an run over, Shen Shaocheng stirred the instant noodles in the pot while praising her. Noticing her constantly peeking into the pot on tiptoe, he asked knowingly:
"I'm almost done here, I don't need your help~, but I just made too much food, would you like to eat some?"
Seeing An'an hesitating, her little feet twitching inwards, he picked up a piece of instant noodles, let it cool, and fed it to her, enticing her: "How about it? Do you want to stay for dinner?"
"Yay~, Cheng-ge! Your food smells so good!"
An'an was captivated by the taste, smacked her lips, and suddenly remembered that this was something she had eaten before: "This tastes like instant noodles!"
An'an finally remembered the name of the delicious food and breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, "Thank goodness, the new knowledge that came in today hasn't overwhelmed her! She still remembers her favorite food!"
