Chapter 370: Chapter 370

Zhao Guangran sat angrily on the kang, really wanting to go on strike, making him very frustrated.

"Alright, keep working. It’s not your turn today, so wait until tomorrow." Zhao Xuran was giving Gong Ruini such a comfortable massage.

The previously tense shoulder felt much more relaxed, so he was also a bit displeased with Zhao Guangran’s unhappy expression.

Since there was no way to convince Zhan Banxia and the others, it wasn’t worth getting angry. It just meant he had no status in front of the twins.

Wait until tomorrow? My dear brother, as if you didn’t know how petty Gong Ruini is. If she gets angry, she won’t lift a finger for at least three days.

These guys really don’t have any brotherly love; they’re all just looking out for themselves.

Zhao Guangran puffed up and glared at Zhao Xuran, especially at his big brother, who was becoming more and more stingy. He used to share good things with his brothers. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novel⦿fire.net

Regarding his younger brother’s silly demeanor, "Just stop thinking about watching Ni Zi’s jokes, won’t you?"

Knowing full well not to offend Gong Ruini, yet he continuously offends Gong Ruini, even as the big brother, he can’t handle it.

"Idiot." Zhan Banxia, who was tracing with a red pen on the side, blurted out without lifting her head.

"Fool." Zhan Zisu was memorizing acupuncture point charts. Since Zhan Jing no longer left the house for consultations, there was more time for teaching Zhan Banxia and the others.

At such a young age, they were already deprived of the time a child should have for play; Gong Ruini found it terrifying to watch.

Even Zhao Guangran, at his age, still thought about going out to play, not to mention Zhan Banxia and Zisu, who were only three years old.

Gong Ruini had to admire why these two would promote the traditional Chinese medicine industry so widely when they grew up; being so steady at such a young age was not ordinary maturity but rather divine favor.

Idiot and fool, Zhao Guangran was so angry that his eyes turned red. When his own big brother said that, he accepted it. In his mind, his big brother held a high status, and if it weren’t for his partiality to Gong Ruini, Zhao Guangran would give him an even higher rating.

As for Gong Ruini, Zhao Guangran also admitted she was smarter than him, truly someone who crushed him in all aspects. If he didn’t acknowledge her intelligence, wouldn’t that indirectly imply he was stupid?

And now, with these two little ones making such blunt comments, how could Zhao Guangran not burst out, "You guys are bullying your brother too much, aren’t you?"

So what if they’re bullying someone? Zhan Banxia just wanted to speak up when Zhao Xuran intervened, "Banxia." Zhao Xuran still didn’t want the two younger brothers to underestimate Zhao Guangran, even if Zhao Guangran often did silly things.

Alright, since the big brother spoke, Zhan Banxia could only reluctantly keep quiet.

"Big brother." At a crucial moment, the big brother stepped in, and Zhao Guangran was excited, looking gratefully toward Zhao Xuran.

"Alright, quickly copy the test papers and mail them out early so others can start studying." Zhao Xuran didn’t want to listen to his younger brother’s cringe-inducing words.

He pouted, wasn’t it just because he thought his words were cheesy? He really couldn’t understand it. Clearly, Gong Ruini would also say such things, but why did his big brother find his words cringey?

How come he didn’t find Gong Ruini’s words cringey, Zhao Guangran really didn’t get it. Should he speak in the same style and tone as Gong Ruini?

That made Zhao Guangran quite eager to try. If it really worked, what harm would it be to be laughed at once or twice? As long as it pleased his big brother.

Seeing his younger brother’s shifty eyes, Zhao Xuran knew this guy was up to no good again, "Turn off those thoughts in your head for me."

"Don’t think about taking shortcuts."

Alright, the big brother still favored Gong Ruini the most, and the resigned Zhao Guangran could only return to being a miserable scribe.

After copying only a few sentences, Zhao Guangran remembered something important and that he had always forgotten to ask.

"Uncle, is this for Aunt?" Zhao Guangran recalled that Gong Ruini mentioned this was for someone they were mailing to Cai Ming. He suddenly realized it might be for Cai Ming’s girlfriend, otherwise, why be so eager.

Knowing that there wasn’t enough of these test papers at the moment, they were barely managing to copy them all in time.

The guy had just gotten his brain around it? Gong Ruini had been waiting for Zhao Guangran to make such a sarcastic comment, thinking this boy considered Cai Ming an elder who couldn’t be easily teased and thus hadn’t brought it up.

Turns out this wasn’t the reason at all; he’d just figured it out recently. This was really not easy for him.

Cai Ming was making test papers when he heard Zhao Guangran’s remark. His face flushed instantly, and he didn’t dare look up at the kids.

What an honest child, unlike the next generation of kids. When teased , they wouldn’t know how to stop talking about how much girls liked them and all the troubles of choosing who.

Gong Ruini, having just finished fantasizing, noticed Zhan Banxia stopped tracing with the red pen, and Zhan Zisu stopped memorizing acupuncture charts, each of them staring at Cai Ming. Could it be that kids now understood these things?

"Uncle’s blushing, really looks nice." It was the first time Zhan Banxia saw Cai Ming blush, really thinking it looked nice.

Zhan Banxia’s innocent words made Cai Ming even more embarrassed, not knowing what to do.

"Uncle, you absolutely must make her Aunt, otherwise you’ll really lose out." Zhao Guangran said something startling, making Cai Ming want to throw him out.

Impressive, Gong Ruini supported this. For such a passionate classmate, Gong Ruini thought she was indeed suitable for her own uncle. Though a bit feisty, she excelled in etiquette and would definitely manage the family well no matter how rowdy Cai’s family gets in the future.

Being just virtuous isn’t enough. During this visit, seeing Cai’s family being so shameless up close, Gong Ruini observed that someone with a bit of fierceness, alongside being virtuous and gentle, was indeed suitable for Cai Ming, and this old classmate was definitely fit for her uncle.

Gong Ruini gave Zhao Guangran a look that said "well done," making Zhao Guangran pleased, "Ni Zi, wasn’t I right?"

He hadn’t expected that his casual words would make Ni Zi so happy, pondering if he could have his ban lifted early, making Zhao Guangran quite hopeful.

"Right, right." Gong Ruini thought about it and decided not today; can’t let Zhao Guangran get too full of himself, "Tomorrow."

Oh, finally addressing a looming crisis, Zhao Guangran’s mouth opened wide in surprise.

"Oh, you guys are teasing your uncle now." Cai Ming impolitely gave both Gong Ruini and Zhao Guangran a little knock on the head, realizing he had to show some uncle-like authority to hold back these two mischievous kids.

Oh, there’s no need to get physical just because the uncle is embarrassed, Gong Ruini protested, "Uncle, you can’t hit a lady like me. Such behavior is not gentlemanly."

Oh, talking about being gentlemanly and ladylike, Cai Ming wasn’t afraid, "Is it nice of you to discuss this? Don’t you know it could ruin a girl’s reputation?"

Cai Ming had considered this idea, but until he passed the college entrance exam and left the Northeast, he wouldn’t consider such things.

Reputation? Alas, the uncle is still a bit conservative, though his concerns aren’t unfounded. Which family would let a daughter with a stable job come to the Northeast to endure hardships, all hoping their daughters will live good lives?
