Chapter 314 Mao Mao Studies Diligently
His parents always said he was useless and stupid. He didn't take it to heart at first, but compared to He Yuxiang and Xiao Yu, he really was stupid.

Mao Mao wasn't jealous of He Yuxiang and his sister; he accepted the fact.

Talia felt as if her heart was riddled with countless needle pricks. "How could you think that?"

"Because you and Dad have always said that."

Mao Mao looked up at her mother, her tone sincere, her clear blue eyes sparkling.

Talia felt a pang of pain in her heart: "How could this be? In your parents' eyes, you are the smartest person."

"Mom, don't lie to the child." Mao Mao raised his index finger and shook it.

Talia's eyes reddened, and her throat felt like it was blocked with cotton.

Seeing that her mother didn't say anything, Mao Mao went back to her room to do her homework.

I got tired of writing in my notebook.

Why do you need two pages to write just one word? Isn't that a huge waste of paper?
Mao Mao didn't understand, and finished her homework while lying on the table in a daze.

Mao Jianguo had just woken up when he saw his son sitting improperly and became furious: "Who told you to sit like that while writing?"

Mao Mao: "I've finished writing."

He stuffed his workbook into his schoolbag.

"You finished writing as soon as I arrived. Did you write it seriously, or are you lying to me?!"

Mao Jianguo angrily cursed.

Back then, he studied day and night to climb up from the countryside, so how come his son is so lazy?
Mao Mao's chin trembled slightly with a wronged expression: "I didn't lie."

"Then take out your workbook and let me see it."

Mao Jianguo checked his son's homework and found that he had indeed finished it.

Mao Mao snorted and went to take a shower.

Mao Jianguo didn't say anything more. He turned his head and saw his wife sitting like a statue. He was startled: "Wife, why are you sitting in the living room without moving?"

After a long silence, Talia said, "Mao Jianguo, go find another woman and have another child."

Before she lost her own freedom, Talia wasn't so strict with Momo; her greatest wish was for her child to grow up happily.

But people's hearts are not as good as snakes swallowing elephants.

She hopes that Mao Mao will be better.

Especially since He Yuxiang and Xiaoyu are both smart, even if she says she doesn't mind, she secretly hopes that Mao Mao can strive to achieve the same results as them.

But she doesn't like children to feel inferior.

He was a bright and sunny child by nature.

Compared to a perfect score, Talia asked herself honestly, and she would rather her child be happy.

Mao Jianguo was stunned: "What did you say? Did someone take advantage of my busy work schedule to sneak into my life? Let me tell you, Talia, I will never get a divorce in this lifetime."

“Our educational philosophies are different. I don’t want to force my child to study anymore. As long as he obeys the law and doesn’t harm others, I will be satisfied.”

"I only said a few words to him, I didn't hit him much, and you're already threatening to divorce me. What if he does something even worse in the future, and you still side with him? The child will be spoiled by you!"

"That's why I'm telling you to have another one, so you can torment other people's children, not Mao Mao."

"Did Chen Qing tell you something? You believe everything she says! She's raising her nephews and nieces. As long as she raises them well, she'll be considered a good aunt in the eyes of outsiders, and she won't have to take responsibility for their future. But we only have one child. Can we compare to her?"

Mao Jianguo was irritable.

It's rare to have a day off.

My family is full of troubles.

Talia grabbed the enamel mug next to her and threw it at him: "That's enough!"

Mao Jianguo winced in pain in his shoulder. "You're at it again. I've been very busy lately and don't have time to mess around with you."

Mao Mao stood at the door, pursed her lips, and tears streamed down her face.

He will study hard in the future, so that his parents will stop arguing.

He stood at the door for a long time, waiting for his parents to stop fighting before going back to his room and locking himself in. He sat on the bed for a long time before finally falling asleep. When it was time for school, Mao Mao went to find He Yuxiang again, begging him to teach him more: "I want to get a perfect score like you guys."

He Yuxiang: "...Okay."

He tutored Mao Mao after class.

Mao Mao isn't stupid; he just absolutely hates studying. But once he decides to study hard, he doesn't complain about the hardship or fatigue.

Xiaoyu went to play with Maomao after class, but Maomao wouldn't play with her.

Xiaoyu was a little sad, but her brother said that Mao Mao needed to study, so she didn't bother him anymore and took her older sister Xiaohe out to play.

Honghong hasn't been coming to class lately, and Xiaoyu has suddenly lost two playmates.

Even though Xiaoyu is missing two people, she's not too sad because she has many friends.

Mao Mao glanced outside during her study session and saw Xiao Yu playing jump rope, her eyes filled with envy.

But if he doesn't study hard, his parents will get divorced, and he doesn't want his parents to get divorced.

Mao Mao lowered his head and continued studying.

His attitude towards learning suddenly became serious, which surprised Teacher Lin. She called Mao Mao's name several times in class, saying, "Did you all see how positive Mao Mao's attitude towards learning is? You should all learn from Mao Mao in the future, understand?"

"know."

Scattered sounds could be heard from inside the classroom.

Mao Mao casually tugged at her lips.

He Yuxiang felt bad seeing Mao Mao like this, but since Mao Mao wanted to improve her grades, he didn't stop her. Instead, he taught Mao Mao wholeheartedly.

Mao Mao is diligent at school.

I'm also studying hard at home.

Mao Jianguo was very satisfied: "That's it! That's the style of my son, Mao Jianguo!"

Talia had a bad feeling, so when the weekend came, she sent Mao Mao to Chen Qing's house to play.

Mao Mao refused: "No need."

It's too easy to be happy in the courtyard, which interferes with studying.

Moreover, Dad dislikes Auntie, and whenever he slacks off, he blames it on her.

His aunt was so good to him, and she even saved his mother. He didn't want his aunt to be scolded all the time because of him.

In the courtyard, Chen Qing suddenly remembered Mao Mao: "Why hasn't Mao Mao come to our house for so long?"

He Yuxiang: "He won't be coming anymore."

Chen Qing frowned: "What utter nonsense are you spouting?!"

“Mao Mao’s parents are very strict about his studies,” He Yuxiang replied.

Chen Qing was speechless.

The practice of "tiger parenting" existed in every dynasty.

She used to work in Haishi, where her colleagues' children were enrolled in a lot of tutoring and extracurricular classes. When she saw a five-year-old child speaking fluent English, her first thought was envy.

If you raise children scientifically, it will indeed be better for their future. However, Mao Jianguo's approach to Mao Mao seems more like a form of suppression and education.

Chen Qing sighed, "It's not easy being a child either."

He Yuxiang: "Indeed, so you can have sweet potato porridge for lunch. Don't torture the child."

Chen Qing hesitated, then asked, "Why are we eating sweet potato porridge again?"

"Because I want to make money, I don't have time to cook."

"……All right."

As long as there's food to eat, that's fine.

Chen Qing mixed sweet potato porridge with chopped chili peppers, making it both hot and spicy.
