Siheyuan: There are seven fairies in my house, I am so busy
Chapter 146 Family
Seeing the eager look in Fifth Sister's eyes, Zhang Jialiang certainly would not refuse.
"Of course, if you want to learn I can teach you.
It's just that you're a little short, so it's not very convenient to ride such a big bike."
This is indeed true. The 28-inch bicycle is too big and too high. It is also thick and heavy, so it is not very friendly to women.
Although the fifth sister is only 15 years old now, she has grown up. Girls develop physically earlier than boys. She is now 1 meters tall.
All the women in the Zhang family are not short, they are all over 1 meters tall. The tallest is the fourth sister, Zhang Jiaxiu, who is 6 meters tall. But even the fourth sister finds it very difficult to ride a 1-inch bicycle, and that's when the seat is lowered to the lowest position.
"It's OK. I can just pull it out and ride it. I can pull it out from under the beam. I've seen many people ride bicycles this way."
Zhang Jiamei also knew that she was short and weak, and riding such a big and heavy bicycle, her feet could not reach the pedals while sitting on the seat. It would not be pleasant to be hit by the bicycle if it fell over.
However, these could not stop her enthusiasm for learning to ride a bicycle. Besides, many children now ride like this, so if others can do it, she can do it too.
"Okay, no problem. If you want to learn, I'll teach you. We have a bicycle at home now, so we can learn anytime.
But you have to be careful when learning to drive. It’s okay if the car falls, but don’t get hurt.”
Learning to ride a bicycle is not a complicated thing. If my sister wants to learn, let her learn.
"What are you learning!
She is so short and weak, what if she crashes the car?
This car is new, the paint will fall off if it falls!"
Their mother Wang Shujuan was not happy. She heard Laowu pestering Liangzi to learn how to ride a bicycle. She was afraid that the bicycle would be broken. A bicycle is a precious thing, and it is a new one. It would be painful if a piece of paint got knocked off.
Zhang Jialiang was a little helpless. His mother didn't let his fifth sister learn to ride a bicycle because she was afraid that she would fall. It was not because she was afraid of his fifth sister falling, but because she was afraid of the bicycle falling.
This is normal. In this day and age, if a person falls, it's okay, but if a bicycle falls, people will feel sad. This is also a normal reaction.
"Okay, I get it now."
Zhang Jiamei was very disappointed when she heard that her mother didn't want her to study.
At the same time, the other sisters were also a little disappointed. Not only the fifth sister wanted to learn, but they also wanted to learn. Now seeing their mother's attitude, they knew that they had no chance either.
“Mom, it’s okay, bicycles are meant to be ridden.
Besides, bumps and bruises are inevitable when riding a bicycle. Even people who know how to ride a bicycle are like this. I am the same. Sooner or later, my bicycle will get bumped and bruised.
If your sisters want to learn how to ride a bicycle, then go ahead and learn. And you should learn too. Once you can ride a bicycle, it will be more convenient to get things done.
Everyone in our family can learn it. Anyone who wants to learn can learn it. I will teach you.
This will save me from having to ride alone all the time, or have to pull something alone in the future, which is not acceptable.
Let’s make a deal first, whoever learns to ride a bicycle will have to pull the stuff.”
Zhang Jialiang disagreed with his mother's idea. Although he understood it, a bicycle is meant to be ridden. Should it be treated as a sacrifice?
"Humph!
Okay, I can't control you. You earned the bicycle, so do whatever you want with it.
But even when learning to ride a bike you have to be careful, and avoid falling if you can.
I won't learn it. I'm too old now and it's too late for me to learn how to ride a bicycle."
Wang Shujuan glared at Zhang Jialiang. There was nothing she could do with this son. The bicycle was earned by her son, and he didn't feel sorry for it. He was willing to let his sisters learn, so let them learn.
"Oh! Now I can learn how to ride a bicycle. I want to learn too!"
The youngest girl, Zhang Jiali, began to cheer. When her fifth sister said she wanted to learn how to ride a bicycle, she wanted to learn it too. Now that her brother and mother agreed, she began to feel happy.
The eldest sister, the second sister and several other younger sisters were also very happy. Who doesn’t want to ride a bicycle?
Everybody wants to learn.
"Okay, you can learn if you want, but let's make a deal first. From now on, cleaning the bicycle will be left to you. When the bicycle gets dirty, you are responsible for cleaning it!"
Zhang Jialiang looked at his sisters and assigned them the job he was most reluctant to do. The result surprised him.
"No problem, I love cleaning my bike, I promise to clean it every day!"
Unexpectedly, Eighth Sister Zhang Jiali was very happy to accept this job and promised it happily.
Not only the eighth sister, but several other sisters also excitedly said that Zhang Jialiang didn't need to worry about this matter anymore. Cleaning the bicycle was a good thing. They couldn't bear to see such an expensive bicycle get dirty. Their reaction stunned Zhang Jialiang.
Times have indeed changed. There are still people rushing to clean bicycles.
After talking about the bicycle, the family turned their attention to the big bag of nutritional supplements.
"This is quite a lot of lard, weighing a full 5 kilograms, which is enough for our family to eat for a while.
Don’t mention adding some lard when cooking, it tastes so good, and now I have more confidence in cooking.”
Zhang Jiamei first focused her attention on lard. Among these items, lard was the one she valued the most.
This is indeed the case. Among these thank-you gifts, lard is the most precious, weighing as much as 5 kilograms. Ordinary dishes will become delicious if a little lard is added. It is much better than ordinary vegetable oil.
"Pork, flour, and bones are all good things. We have a lot of delicious food during this period.
I am good at all these things. During this period, I followed Master Zhou to cook everywhere. Although I have not started to formally learn cooking, I was secretly observing Master Zhou carefully when he was cooking.
I have learned a lot now, and now with these ingredients I have the confidence to make delicious food!"
While picking at these things, Zhang Jiamei happily said that she would make full use of them and let her family have delicious meals.
"Okay, if you have good stuff, you have to use it sparingly, otherwise it will be used up in a few days.
Hurry up and put these things in place, take the cake and snacks to your grandma, and let Xiao Lanhua have some too.
Try to keep things in the container for as long as possible, and don’t eat them all at once.”
Wang Shujuan's frugal nature began to reveal itself again. When she had good things, she always wanted to put them away and use them as long as possible, and was reluctant to use them all at once.
She taught this philosophy of housekeeping to her daughters through words and deeds, resulting in all the daughters of the Zhang family being the same, each of them being a good housekeeper and very good at thriftiness.
The same goes for the fifth sister, she can always make delicious meals using the least amount of ingredients.
"Uncle, you are awesome, you are a hero!
We defeated the bad guys and earned so much delicious food!"
Xiao Lanhua held a piece of egg cake, took a bite with relish, and then praised Zhang Jialiang with admiration on her face.
