Chapter 646: Chapter 646: A Dog’s Hard Life
Oh no~
Can’t hide it anymore~
With someone backing him up, Little Grey just slumped on the ground, not wanting to move at all. The clever Bun was still looking very seriously.
"Tsk tsk tsk, your writing is quite neat."
Looking at the neat numbers on the white paper, I had to admit, the handwriting was prettier than mine.
Since childhood, my handwriting has been notoriously chicken scratch. Especially in high school, I don’t know how many times the teachers have commented on it.
The corners of Mo Jingchun’s mouth slightly lifted as he extended his right hand and said, "No need to hide, I’ve seen it. Hand it over."
Candy, with her head down, reluctantly handed over her brother’s little stick.
After taking the stick, Mo Jingchun put it back in the drawer.
"I was just taking a nap, how come you made such a fuss."
Mo Jingchun pointed at Little Grey and Bun, chuckling, "Teaching them real numbers, only you could come up with that."
"Let me guess, you threatened their meals again, didn’t you?"
Just when Candy thought her brother was going to stand up for Little Grey and Bun, he surprisingly said, "Carry on, your sister and I won’t disturb your class."
Before Candy could react, her brother and sister were already gone.
Mo Jingchun was secretly thrilled, glad that Candy found something fun, not wanting to interrupt him. Seriously, teaching is such a meaningful thing, why would he criticize it?
But the stick still needed to be confiscated.
For a moment, Candy was bewildered, and Little Grey was even more so.
Just as he was about to sneak away, a cold snort was heard, frightening Little Grey.
"Hmph~"
"Little Grey, where do you think you’re going?"
"Look at Bun, how serious they are!"
"That’s the difference! That’s the difference!"
On the couch in the living room, Zhou Yaling laughed uproariously at the recorded video.
Too funny.
The surprising thing was, under Candy’s guidance, Little Grey and Bun actually learned something.
"Brother, this is too funny."
"Indeed, we are old now. Every generation has its own way of playing when they’re young."
Both of them were five, and back then, she and her brother were playing in the mud.
To be honest, they probably knew fewer numbers than Bun did. Back then, according to the rules, you couldn’t attend preschool until you were six years old.
Kindergarten? Nonexistent.
And aside from the first day of school each semester, regardless of grade, parents didn’t pick up or drop off their kids. It was always the big kids from the production team taking the little ones to and from school.
Back then, you also had to line up to walk home. Such nostalgic childhood memories.
Mo Jingchun said nonchalantly, "It’s good, otherwise, you’d have to look after the kids."
"Hehe, brother, you’re right, but it’s tough on Little Grey and Bun."
"Hmm, brother, I’ve decided. I’ll give them extra food tonight! School is such a hard work, so nutrition shouldn’t fall behind."
It’s said that sharing joy with others is better than enjoying it alone, Zhou Yaling trimmed the video intending to post it on social media. Just as she was about to post, she paused.
"Brother, the study appeared in the video. Will there be any issue posting it online?"
Mo Jingchun replied without looking up, "There’s nothing to hide."
"Except for the full-scale aircraft carrier model, which seems valuable, there’s nothing else."
"Hahaha, then I’ll post it."
Mo Jingchun didn’t say anything more, which was tacit approval. It was better to post it, so people with intentions would know there was really nothing in his study worth risking their lives for.
The limited edition model was indeed very valuable, but stealing it wasn’t necessary.
In the following time, Zhou Yaling witnessed the terrifying speed at which Candy gained followers.
Even more interesting were the comments left by netizens.
"Dog: I don’t even need to go to school, why do I have to learn?"
"I pick you up from school, and you want me to study. What kind of retribution is this!"
"Hahaha, truly the age where dogs and cats are despised."
"Didn’t they say no magic creatures after the founding of the country?"
"Doggy: I never thought that being reincarnated as a dog couldn’t escape the fate of schooling."
"Bun is so smart."
Some netizens noticed the aircraft carrier model in the video, and to an ordinary person, they would just exclaim at Mo Jingchun being a military enthusiast.
For some professionals, they could instantly see the uniqueness of the model.
In just over an hour, Zhou Yaling’s followers increased by over ten thousand.
Some replied wanting to see a live broadcast, but Zhou Yaling chose to ignore them. She understood the most basic simple truths and would not be blinded by momentary interests.
Although she often posted Candy’s humorous short videos and had tens of thousands of followers, she never used her account for sales and never did advertisements.
In the late afternoon, Mo Jingchun and Zhou Yaling saw Little Grey and Bun dash out the door.
Before long, Candy hummed a cheerful little tune, like a retired old cadre, slowly descended the stairs with his hands behind his back.
"Why did you come down?" Mo Jingchun asked in surprise.
Hearing this, Candy tilted his head, and said mysteriously, "It’s recess, studying requires a balance of work and rest."
Having said that, Candy tugged on his sister’s hand, acting spoiled, "Sister, give Little Grey an extra chicken leg tonight."
Zhou Yaling smiled, her lips slightly curving, "Sure, what about Bun? Can’t favor one over the other."
"Hehe, how could I. Bun gets an extra bag of fish snacks tonight!"
"Brother, sister, Bun is really smart, learned it in no time."
Mo Jingchun calmly glanced at Candy, the meaning in his eyes clear - as if you needed to say it.
Back when he first adopted them, Mo Jingchun had discovered it.
If Bun hadn’t been smart since young, they might have been done in by that big rainstorm years ago. Wouldn’t have today without it.
For these years, Bun had never gone hungry.
Even when Candy was just learning to walk, he never failed Bun.
Many times, if not for timely intervention, Bun would have eaten itself to death.
"So annoying, I found out that Little Grey and Bun aren’t suited for counting."
As he said this, Mo Jingchun and Zhou Yaling couldn’t hold back, almost bursting out laughing.
Realized it, huh. Didn’t consider that numbers within ten are fine, but larger ones - letting the speechless Little Grey and Bun cope - how is that fair?
Would 100 really mean saying it 100 times? How’s that different from taking their lives? No difference at all.
"Hehe, I’ve thought it through. When brother goes to work the day after tomorrow, I’ll visit Big Black’s trainer. I’ll study in-depth with that instructor on how to educate dogs and cats."
"What do you call that... hmm..."
Candy’s eyes lit up upon thinking of the word, "Right, specialization in arts. I heard the PE teacher mention it."
Mo Jingchun: Is there anything your PE teacher doesn’t know?
