Yi Zhonghai said proudly: "My daughter, we don't usually teach her. When I read the newspaper, she asks me to read to her. After I read it once, she can recognize the characters. She also has a photographic memory and can recite it after reading it once!"

When everyone heard this, they looked at Yi Jiale in surprise and praised him again, "Oh, I didn't expect this to be a little prodigy."

[I am still a genius with a photographic memory]

[This child is so young, you must train him well in the future! ]

【The young generation is the backbone of our country! 】

…………

In the car, the adults were chattering about how to educate children and kept praising Yi Jiale.

Yi Jiale was so shy from being praised that his face flushed. However, the children in the carriage all looked at Yi Jiale with unconvinced eyes, because just now their parents kept saying to them: [Ah, look at other people’s children, look at you! ]

Children hate it most when their parents compare them with other children. Although Yi Jiale looks cute, they all dislike Yi Jiale a little at this moment.

Yi Jiale breathed a sigh of relief when they were almost home. These adults were too talkative. They kept chatting from the moment they got in the car until they got off. It seemed like they could never talk enough.

An old man and an old woman pulled Yi Jiale out of the car, still feeling a little unsatisfied. After all, whenever someone praised their daughter, the old man and the old woman would be very excited and couldn't stop at all.

As soon as I got home, my mother went to cook, and then Huo Sheng came to the door.

Huo Sheng smiled happily when he saw Yi Jiale, his eyes seemed to be shining. Huo Sheng knew that the old man didn't like him holding Tuanzi's little hand, so generally, Huo Sheng would not hold Tuanzi in front of the old man.

Huo Sheng: "Tuanzi, you're back!"

Yi Jiale asked while washing his hands: "Yes, we just came back, Mr. Huo, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Huo Sheng lowered his head and smiled embarrassedly: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that you have been studying recently, and I didn't want to disturb you and ask you to play, so I wanted to ask if you want to go out and play now?"

Yi Jiale washed his hands and shook them, then wiped them on his body: "Okay, my mom will cook dinner in a while, let's go play now, and call Sister Xiong by the way!"

Yi Jiale turned around and shouted to his parents, "Go out and play by yourselves!" and then he pulled Huo Sheng out.

Huo Sheng felt a little shy when Yi Jiale held his hand. He thought of the old man again and turned around. Sure enough, the old man was glaring at the hand he and Tuanzi were holding.

Huo Sheng quickly turned his head, pretending that he didn't see the old man's eyes, and happily ran hand in hand with Yi Jiale.

Yi Zhonghai blew his beard and glared, thinking, "This brat thinks he didn't notice it! Humph, they are all little bastards who came to steal my daughter!"

The lady saw her husband still standing there looking outside, not knowing what he was looking at, so she shouted, "Why are you standing there like an idiot? Can't you come over and help me?"

Yi Zhonghai then withdrew his gaze and turned to help the aunt cook. It was the aunt who did the housework in the past, but after his daughter told him that her mother had a hard time doing housework, Yi Zhonghai would help with some housework if he was not tired.

However, the aunt knew that his locksmith work was tiring, so she usually didn't let him do it after get off work.

Hutong Entrance

A few children were playing outside, and the entrance of the alley was no longer filled with the noisy chatter of children as before.

Those who need to register for tomorrow have already registered, and those who need to attend classes have already attended. Many children have not finished their winter vacation homework and are rushing to finish it, so these courtyards are so quiet.

Huaihua is also going to be in the first grade this year, so she can come out and play because she doesn’t have homework. Banggeng is in the fifth grade and Xiaodang is in the third grade, so he is still busy with his homework at home.

There were only a few children standing at the door and there was nothing to play with. A few children sat on the steps and asked in a chattering manner, "Is Huosheng School fun?"

If Huo Sheng went to school this year, he would be in the third grade. Huo Sheng was also very smart and studied hard, so he skipped directly from the first grade to the second grade, and then he would be in the third grade this year.

Mr. Huo did not answer the other children's question about whether it was fun or not. He first asked Yi Jiale: "Tuanzi, are you really going to skip to the third grade this year?"

Yi Jiale: "I'm not sure yet, but I have finished my third grade courses. But after all, I'm still young, so I'll see how things go when the time comes!"

Huo Sheng nodded in understanding, and said expectantly: "I still hope you can go directly to the third grade. I am in Teacher Yan's class. I guess you will also be in Teacher Yan's class in the third grade, so we can be classmates!"

Yi Jiale: "Hey, Mr. Huo, you know I'm very smart, aren't you afraid that if I really come to your class, I'll take your first place?"

Huo Sheng smiled shyly: "I'm not afraid that you will take my first place. If you do, it means I'm not as good as you. I'll just work harder in the future! As long as you can come, I'll be very happy~~"

Yi Jiale looked at Huo Sheng seriously: "Don't worry, I will definitely take the first place away from you, just don't cry when the time comes!"

Huo Sheng lowered his head and said a little embarrassedly: "Tuanzi, I am a man, why would I cry?"

……

Lin Xiong and Huaihua just watched the two of them talking to each other, and they couldn't get a word in at all.

Lin Xiong felt strange. Why did he feel that Huo Sheng was like a little girl, always lowering his head shyly with his face and ears red, while Yi Jiale had an expression as if he was determined to defeat Huo Sheng.

Lin Xiong couldn't figure it out, and stopped thinking about it. While the two were chatting, he ran back home to get some snacks, and they shared them while eating and chatting.

Huaihua felt a little embarrassed for eating Lin Xiong's snacks, so she ran home to get her own snacks to share with everyone.

Mr. Huo's family situation is not very good, and he seldom gets to eat snacks. However, Yi Jiale had told Mr. Huo not to be polite to him, otherwise he would not play with him. Yi Jiale also often gave snacks to the other children, so everyone knew that Mr. Huo was under Yi Jiale's protection, so they would share some food with him. Mr. Huo could also eat snacks calmly, after all, what he ate now, he would return double to Tuanzi in the future.

Huo Sheng glanced at Yi Jiale's little face as he was eating snacks, his eyes softened a little, and he accepted all the snacks that Yi Jiale fed to his mouth.

Yi Jiale has a system mall and a lot of points, so one point can buy a bunch of snacks. Yi Jiale mainly buys snacks that are available in this era. Yi Jiale can't finish them, so he shares them with these children. Seeing their innocent smiles makes him happy.

In Yi Jiale's opinion, Mr. Huo was the most pitiful child in the orphanage, so he often took extra care of him.

Yi Jiale is a generous person, but he doesn't like others treating him as a fool. He can share, but if someone else doesn't share, that person will be added to Yi Jiale's blacklist. From then on, that person can only watch other children eat Yi Jiale's snacks.

……

Time passed quickly amid the carefree conversations of the children.

As the sun sets, the family starts yelling “It’s time for dinner!!”

Hearing the calls from their families, everyone hurried home to eat, because food was not abundant in those days, and if you missed it, you would miss it and go hungry for the whole day.

No one wants to go hungry.
