PNB Chapter 150 Strict Teacher
Chapter 150 Strict Teacher
One moment she's the best sister in the world, the next she's ruthlessly exposed her lie.
Ashu's face immediately turned as red as a boiled shrimp.
"..." The two sisters didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Should we be moved by their family bond, or should we give these two silly and amusing siblings a flick on the forehead each?
Just a single jujube can reveal the most genuine family affection in the world.
You can also see the two children living alone in a foreign land, relying on each other for survival, and living a difficult and anxious life.
Like,
They had just arrived in this unfamiliar world, cautious and timid, with only each other to rely on, weren't they?
This is probably why they couldn't help but want to help the brother and sister...
Lin Lanshan blinked her sore eyes and took out another fruit.
"A-Shu, this reward is for you. It's a reward for your hard work in raising your sister. You're really amazing!"
Don't be afraid or worried. As long as you two siblings trust and rely on each other, life will definitely get better and better, understand?
Ashu's hands trembled as he gathered the sweet fruit he wanted to eat in his palms. For some reason, he couldn't get it into his mouth.
Large tears silently dripped from her eyes and fell to the ground.
He did lie; he was actually a little tired. Also, he missed his parents…
Seeing that both children were crying, Lin Chunyi sighed inwardly and asked softly, "A-Shu, where is Yang Yu?"
"Brother Yang Yu went for his morning exercise. I'll go call him back right now." Ashu wiped away his tears with his sleeve, sniffed, and gave her a smile.
After Ashu left, the two sisters tried to persuade Ahua to sleep a little longer, but she refused and just sat on the bed watching them.
So the three of them started chatting idly in the room.
Lin Chunyi brought over two small wooden stools and sat down beside her bed. "Ahua, I see a copy of the Thousand Character Classic on the table. Are you starting to learn to read?"
When it comes to studying, Ahua gets really excited. She says happily:
"This book was a gift from Yang Yu to my brother and me. My brother is still learning the first page, while I've already learned the second page. Yang Yu said I'm much smarter than my brother, hehe!"
That little expression and tone of voice were overflowing with pride. He looked so energetic and full of life.
Lin Lanshan appropriately expressed her surprise, "I didn't expect Ahua to have a talent for studying! Can you write all these characters?"
Ahua's eyes sparkled with confidence and pride: "I can do it all! I love learning characters! Brother Yang Yu said that if I learn to read, I won't have to go hungry anymore!"
Reading may not bring you good fortune, but it will certainly make you a better person. So she continued to encourage him:
"Okay, Ahua is great! You must study hard in the future and never give up halfway."
Ahua nodded vigorously.
Lin Chunyi suddenly remembered that she had noticed a pile of things in the left corner when she came in, and asked:
"By the way, Ahua, I just saw a lot of bamboo baskets in your house. Where did you buy them?"
They look pretty good, so they'll buy a few too; they can hold a lot of things.
"My brother made them all himself in his spare time."
The two sisters were stunned. Ashu was only eleven years old, yet he could make so many exquisitely crafted baskets. That was amazing!
Seeing that the two were silent, Ahua thought they didn't believe her, so she quickly explained:
“It really was made by my brother! Father used to make money by selling these. My brother and I learned from each other when we were little, but I can’t make them as well as he can.”
Not only my parents, but even the people in the village used to say that my brother learned very quickly and made very good bamboo woven products. They said he would definitely be able to make a living from this in the future.
It's just a pity that before my brother finished his studies, my parents...
Noticing Ahua's sudden drop in mood, the two sisters changed the subject again.
We chatted about their recent martial arts practice and I asked them what interesting gossip was going on in the village lately.
"Gossip?" Ahua looked doubtful.
Lin Lanshan cleared her throat. "No, I wanted to ask how you get along with the villagers. Are there any children bullying you?"
Children whose parents are absent seem to be more easily ridiculed and bullied by others.
Ahua shook her head, then seemed to remember something, looking conflicted, unsure whether she should speak.
Just as they were about to ask for more details, they heard two footsteps outside the door.
Yang Yu ran into the house, covered in sweat, and bowed to them...
The dim sky outside was beginning to clear. It seemed getting late; I should hurry and teach them today's lessons before heading to the county town.
So the two swallowed their questions, and when they thought about it again, they never imagined that Ahua had almost gotten into trouble...
The two sisters stood up and told Yang Yu and Ashu to go to the backyard to adjust their state and prepare to begin.
Ahua wanted to get out of bed and learn along with Lin Chunyi, but Lin Chunyi stopped her, saying, "You don't need to practice these few days. Just take your medicine and rest. Once you're fully recovered, Ashu will teach you."
No slacking off! Make up for all the practice you missed these past few days. We'll check next time you come!
Only after receiving a "leave slip" personally issued by her teacher did she obediently lie back down on her bed and continue to stare blankly at the sky.
In the open space in the backyard, Yang Yu and Ashu were reviewing the moves they had learned before.
The two sisters sat on the steps, their expressions shifting between dissatisfaction and calm.
Lin Lanshan asked seriously, "Sister, do you think they've been slacking off? It's been more than half a month since I taught them, and they still haven't mastered what they were taught last time."
Lin Chunyi tried her best to understand them, "Perhaps they have too much chores to do at home and can't manage it..."
She paused for a moment, then said expressionlessly, "It's alright. As the weather gets colder, there won't be much else to do. They'll have a whole winter to train every day!"
After completing the last movement, Yang Yu and Ashu had sweat on their foreheads, but felt a strange chill down their spines.
The two scorching, no, chilling gazes from the steps made them afraid to even lift their heads completely.
The two men took a deep breath and swallowed hard, neither daring to say that they were "finished."
The more they looked at them, the angrier they became. It seemed they had been too lenient in their teaching! The two sisters clicked their tongues, then stood up, stretched their limbs, and went down the steps...
An hour later,
The tough young man, Yang Yu, lay panting on the ground, staring at the bright sky with a vacant look in his eyes.
Young boy Ashu lay on the ground, a single tear of pain sliding down his cheek.
Lin Lanshan put her hands on her hips and yelled, "Look at you guys! You've only practiced for an hour, and look what you've become!"
My peach ran for two hours and she wasn't as weak as you guys. What are you waiting for? Do you want me to personally pull you up?
The two of them were immediately jolted awake and jumped to their feet.
Peach, who had already taken over the mule shed of the indigenous people, twitched her ears, proudly raised her head, and snorted.
One has to play the bad cop, and the other has to play the good cop.
Lin Chunyi began to speak nonsense to them in a gentle tone: "In martial arts, if you don't advance, you will fall behind. If you don't keep striving forward, you will be abandoned by it and you will never be able to learn it well again!"
That's why I'm strict with you, it's for your own good! Otherwise, at your current pace of learning, you won't see any results even after ten or eight years.
We're going to the county town now. Think carefully today about why you want to learn martial arts, what you want to achieve, and whether you can persevere. We'll come back tomorrow.
Although her tone was gentle, the words that came out of her mouth sent a chill down their spines...
