In the silence, Gu Xian started talking again.

He poked Gigi Lai's arm and asked:

"Zizi, when do you think our family will move to the city? Living here, we have to get up an hour early to ride bicycles to work every day, and ride an hour back at night. This is such a waste of time!"

Li Zi raised her eyebrows:

"Didn't you say that we would wait until we were assigned to the welfare housing in the work unit before moving? What, you can't stand it now?"

Gu Xian looked up at the roof, stretched his limbs, and said:

"No, I'm tired. It's been a long time since I wanted to be allocated a welfare house, but too much time has been wasted on this journey. You think, why don't we rent a house in the city first."

Gigi Lai shook her head and rejected his proposal:

"No. Have you forgotten that Ning Ning is still young and needs someone to take care of her? What will Ning Ning do if we move to the city?"

Gu Xian took his head back and looked at Li Zi:

"Actually, I think we can send Ning Ning to the day care class in our unit. Before, I thought that if one teacher looked after many children, Ning Ning would be neglected. My mother would be more attentive to taking care of her than the teacher. But the problem is , Ning Ning is not an ordinary child. With 001 here, we can rest assured."

Gigi Gigi frowned and thought for a while, neither agreeing nor rejecting:

"Let's take a look. We'll see what happens after the year. After all, it takes time to find a house. Then we'll have to ask Ningning for her own opinion."

Gu Xian nodded:

"Okay, let's take a look first. But I think we really need to move to the city."

The two ended the topic again and did not continue talking. They each sat on their own stools, waiting for Gu Ning to wake up.

After waiting for a while, Gu Ning woke up.

Because she has had enough fun recently, she is very interested in learning today and is very focused. Studying took a little longer than usual.

Seeing Gu Ning wake up, Gu Xian and Li Zi rushed to greet her.

"Ning Ning, how did you study today?"

Gigi Lai asked with concern.

"Mom, it went well! I had a lot of fun studying today! I found today's course very interesting and I learned a lot."

Gu Ning answered excitedly.

Gigi Gigi smiled and patted Gu Ning's head lovingly:

"That's good. What did you learn today? So interesting."

"hey-hey."

Gu Ning grinned,

"Mom, do you know? Tadpoles turn into frogs. So, those tadpoles are frogs that have not grown up. Mom, do you know what tadpoles are? They are those black fish in the small ditch in the brigade. We used to They all thought it was a fish, but it never grew up, and I had never seen what it looked like when it grew up.”

Gigi Gigi smiled. She had gone to college after all, so of course she knew that tadpoles could turn into frogs.

However, she didn't want to disturb her daughter's interest, so she pretended not to know:

"Really? It turns out that this is the case, and my mother doesn't even know it. But now that you tell me, I know it. How come our Ning Ning is so powerful that our mother also learned new knowledge."

Gu Ning laughed proudly, and her smile was particularly bright:

"Hey, Mom, no, no. No wonder we haven't seen what a tadpole looks like when it grows up before. How can we see it when it grows up and turns into a frog?"

As she said this, she thought of something and jumped up with excitement.

Then he rushed to Gigi Lai, grabbed her arm, and asked excitedly:

"Mom, let's catch some tadpoles tomorrow and take them home to raise and see if they will turn into frogs when they grow up. Okay?"

Of course Gigi would not refuse, otherwise it would hinder the child's desire for knowledge.

So she nodded and agreed:

"Okay. I'll go catch it with you tomorrow."

"yeah!"

Gu Ning was so excited that she jumped three feet high.

"but……"

Gigi Lai's words suddenly changed:

"It's not enough for me to accompany you. You also need to ask your father if he is willing to accompany you. Your father is much better at catching fish than I am, but I may not be able to catch tadpoles."

Hearing this, Gu Ning ran to Gu Xian again and hugged his thigh:

"Dad, dad, you come with me too!"

It was rare for Gu Ning to ask him for anything, so of course Gu Xian had to give it up.

He coughed twice, cleared his throat, and then answered:

"Uh-huh. You have to have a begging attitude when asking for help. If you ask like this, how can I possibly agree to it?"

Gu Ning frowned, feeling a little distressed, and asked:

"Dad, how can you promise me?"

Gu Xian actually hadn't thought about it yet, he just wanted to show off and tease Gu Ning.

But of course he would not directly say that he had not thought about it, so he glanced at Gu Ning and said:

"Think carefully about what conditions you have to give before I can agree."

Gu Ning pouted, a little embarrassed.

Gu Ning couldn't think of anything for a moment, but in order to realize her wish, she shook Gu Xian's leg and begged:

"Dad, I really can't think of it. Just tell me."

Gu Xian was very pleased with it, so he stopped embarrassing her.

He rubbed his chin, thought for a while, and said:

"Then you wash my feet today. If you promise to wash my feet, I will accompany you to catch tadpoles tomorrow."

Gu Ning didn't think this was a difficult task and agreed without hesitation:

"Okay, it's settled."

Gu Xian smiled and agreed:

"Okay, it's a deal."

Gu Ning was still a little uneasy, so she stretched out her hand and said:

"Then let's pull the hook."

Gu Xian shook his head in amusement, and finally stretched out his hand to hook up with Gu Ning indulgently.

The big and small little fingers were hooked together. Gu Ning shook his hand, causing Gu Xian's hand to shake as well.

She recited fixed lines:

"Pull the hook, hang yourself, and don't change for a hundred years."

Finally, Gu Ning pressed her thumb against Gu Xian's.

The agreement is reached!

Gu Ning was very happy. She turned around and ran outside the house, shouting as she ran:

"Dad, wait for me. I will go to the kitchen to get hot water to wash your feet now."

Gu Xian responded happily:

"Hey, I'm waiting for you to wash my feet."

Seeing Gu Ning go out, Li Zi smiled and glared at Gu Xian:

"You are serious. You just agree to it. But you still have to hide it and let Ning Ning wash your feet."

Gu Xian smiled with a proud face:

"The child finally asked me for something. If I didn't show it off, wouldn't I have wasted such a good opportunity? You see, wouldn't it be exchanged for her to wash my feet?"

Gigi Lai hit him angrily, but there was still a smile in her eyes:

"You are really out of shape. You are so old, but Ning Ning is still so young, yet you ask her to wash your feet. You are really embarrassed to mention it."

Gu Xian was still beaten by her and did not hide:

"It's okay, it's just once. I have never experienced the feeling of a child washing my feet."
