My wife is in my arms

Chapter 345: Trivial Matters Before the Lunar New Year

Early the next morning.

Zhang You squatted in his yard to build a new doghouse for Cheetah. Now they had moved into their new home, and as a member of this family, Cheetah was naturally no exception. So Zhang You bought a large doghouse of about two square meters for Cheetah after a pet shop opened at around nine o'clock.

Lin Baoer's house is really nice.

In particular, the lighting is very good, and both upstairs and downstairs can get sun, but Zhang You’s favorite is this small courtyard.

The area is not small, and Lin Baoer also designed it into a garden style, and planted a lot of plants in it. If it is spring, such a garden will be full of greenery and blooming flowers if it is carefully maintained.

However, Zhang You plans to hire someone to clear the land after the New Year and turn it into a vegetable garden.

He was not good at growing flowers and plants. He raised several potted plants, but they all died soon after. After this incident, Zhang You realized that potted plants were very delicate and indeed difficult to grow.

But when it comes to growing vegetables, Zhang You thinks he will have no problem. He just needs to buy a few seedlings, plant them in the soil, and remember to water them regularly, and they will basically survive.

This can also help cultivate Xiao Zishan's living habits, letting her know that leeks are leeks. Don't shout "What a large field of leeks" when you see a wheat field. It will only make you laugh if you tell others about it.

The construction of Cheetah's large doghouse was almost completed. Zhang You was just about to get up when he saw Jiang Yiren walking in from outside with a grim expression.

Today, the woman was wearing loose straight jeans and a high-end button-down jacket. Perhaps she was worried that she would be outdone by the other rich ladies, so she specially drew a fox-like eyeliner with a reddish-brown eyeliner and put a little makeup on her smooth face.

He is in good condition overall, but his complexion doesn't look very good.

And Xiao Zishan followed behind with a pout, looking like a bullied person.

Seeing the situation of the mother and daughter, Zhang You seemed to realize something and immediately squatted down again and continued to fiddle with the doghouse.

It was obvious that Jiang Yiren went to the parent-teacher meeting for Xiao Zishan today. She originally wanted to save face for her daughter, so she put a lot of thought into her outfit and makeup. However, she didn't expect that Xiao Zishan's grades... would make her lose face.

"dad"

Xiao Zishan shouted.

Zhang You pretended not to hear it, knowing that Xiao Zishan did not do well in the final exam, so it was naturally impossible for him to show off at this time.

Last night, Jiang Yiren was already very unhappy because he had left her alone and took Xiao Zishan to sleep in her room. If he acted rashly again at this time... then he would be the perfect punching bag.

Zhang You is not stupid. The main reason is that Xiao Zishan was doing homework at night before the final exam. Most of the time, it was his father who was in charge of supervising. So Zhang You thought it would be best for Jiang Yiren to ignore him at this time. He called out, but seeing that his father didn't seem to hear him, Xiao Zishan called out again, "Dad"

Zhang You stood up and walked around the doghouse twice. Finding that there was nothing wrong, he pinched his fingers and started calculating like a fortune teller.

Jiang Yiren had been paying attention to her husband's expression since she entered the door. She had noticed that she had brought Xiao Zishan back. He subconsciously looked up and then quickly lowered his head.

So her husband now... obviously knows that she is in a bad mood because of Xiao Zishan's parent-teacher meeting, so he deliberately pretends to be deep in front of her. Don't tell me, her husband's performance is really good.

Sometimes she wiped the doghouse with a rag, and sometimes she stood up and walked around the doghouse, as if she was worried that the doghouse was not waterproof enough and would leak when it rained. This might be what her best friend called a traceless performance.

The movements are natural and the expressions are well controlled.

"Stop pretending……"

As soon as Jiang Yiren opened her mouth, Zhang You looked over in surprise and said, "You're back! Why did you and your daughter walk without making any sound? You scared me." "Really?!"

Jiang Yiren said with a smile.

"All right!"

Seeing Jiang Yiren's reaction, Zhang You knew that he had gone too far. He spoke first and said, "Let me make it clear first, if Xiao Zishan didn't do well in the exam, don't put the blame on me and say that your IQ is inherited from me."

“Isn’t it!?”

Jiang Yiren asked back, "A daughter's IQ is inherited from her father, and a son's IQ is inherited from his mother. This is scientifically proven. Don't deny it. Last time, little Shan got 98 on the math test. What did you say? You said you could teach this girl anything, but why don't you teach her today?"

"dad"

Xiao Zishan cried out again in grievance.

"Alright, alright, stop yelling. How many points did you get in the exam?!"

Zhang You said helplessly.

"The homeroom teacher sent it to the group chat. You can enter your daughter's name and check it out. The score was outrageous. It was so outrageous that I couldn't even look up in the classroom. And that... Xiao Zishan's English and Chinese teachers even pointed it out to me, telling me not to focus on work and neglect Zhang Zishan's education."

Jiang Yiren turned to look at her daughter and asked, "Zhang Zishan, let me ask you, as your mother, do I really care about your studies? If I had known that you would do so poorly in the exam, I should have asked your father to go today. He is thick-skinned and doesn't care."

Zhang You seemed not to hear Jiang Yiren's complaints.

This is also normal. As a mother, it is understandable for her daughter to complain about such a low score. As for Zhang You... he has let it go. If she does well in the exam, she deserves praise, but if she doesn't do well, that's okay.

In short, don't push your children too hard, especially in a family like this. There is no need to do so. Children from ordinary families need to rely on academic performance to cross social classes.

Jiang Yiren was originally a singing queen, and her father was the founder of Phantom Dance. No matter how poorly she did in the exam, she didn't have to worry about her future. Zhang You took out his mobile phone and opened the parent group. He entered Xiao Zishan's name, and her grades popped up soon.

At this time.

Xiao Zishan also came over with a cute look. She didn't look at her father's mobile phone, but was observing her father's expression. After seeing Xiao Zishan's grades, Zhang You's expression was a little stiff.

Mathematics 89.

It seems that the effect of the special treatment has long been lost. The tone is 77 and the English is 79.

This result... is indeed not optimistic. You know, students nowadays are all very vigorous, especially those in the first grade, a lower grade where the gap shouldn't be too big. According to Xiao Zishan's results, Zhang You conservatively estimated that he was fifth from the bottom.

If you are more radical, you might even be ranked third from the bottom.

It’s no wonder that Jiang Yiren looked so unhappy. With such a bad score in the exam, not to mention Jiang Yiren, even he would have to keep his head down when attending the parent-teacher meeting.

Seeing Xiao Zishan looking at him nervously, Zhang You took a deep breath and said, "That's right. The room for improvement is getting bigger and bigger. Last time, I only left myself two points in math, but this time I left eleven points. That's very good. I will leave myself more room to maneuver so that I can perform better in the future."
