Chapter 247 I'll Knock Out Your Teeth
Outside, it was freezing cold, and each step was difficult for a child, but the child was hungry, and eventually walked to the Gu family's door.
He peeked inside and heard voices inside, then went over and knocked on the door.
The loud cry startled the child, who was about to turn and leave when the inner door was opened.
"Zhang Tiancai, what are you doing here?"
The person who opened the door was Sanhu. He was a little surprised to see the person standing outside, so he asked directly.
"I came here to play with you, why can't I come to play with you?"
Sanhu didn't say anything when he heard Zhang Tiancai's words, but his eyes were saying: "You're out playing in this cold, snowy weather? Are you out of your mind?"
Zhang Tiancai felt very uncomfortable seeing him staring at him, so he waved his hand and said, "Forget it, if you don't want to come out, then forget it. I'll find someone else to play with."
He finished speaking and was about to leave when Sanhu stood at the door without moving, seemingly waiting for him to leave before closing the door.
Zhang Tiancai, having taken two steps, stopped and turned around when he heard no sound behind him: "Gu Changliu, you did this on purpose, didn't you? You just wanted me to leave, didn't you?"
"I already told you I came here to play with you, but you won't play with me. Does that mean you'll never play with me again?"
"Zhang Tiancai, are you out of your mind? Look up at the sky. Do you think it's appropriate to go out in this weather?"
Zhang Tiancai indeed raised his head. Snowflakes fell on his face and melted into water before he lowered his head again: "It's just a few snowflakes."
"It turns into water when it comes into contact with something hot. You don't think a little snowflake could hurt you."
Sanhu was at a loss for words. This Zhang Tiancai was just like his father, both of them lacking common sense.
Since he couldn't explain it clearly, Sanhu decided not to continue. Just as he was about to close the door and go back, the door was blocked by someone.
"Gu Changliu!! I asked you to go out and have fun, how could you do this?"
"Look, the trees and the stones outside are covered in white snowflakes. It must be so much fun! Why don't you come out and play with me?"
"I'm not going. You can go by yourself. I'm going home to study. I'm not talking to you anymore."
Hearing this, Zhang Tiancai pouted unhappily: "Fine, you think you're so great! You've only been to school for two days and you're already acting like a great scholar?"
"Let me tell you, just keep pretending. If you decide you don't want to study anymore and come looking for me again, I'll... Ouch, who hit me?"
Zhang Tiancai covered his forehead and looked around, but there was only himself and Gu Sanhu around; there was no one else there!
He warily scanned his surroundings. "Who hit me? Come out here, I'm going to kill you."
"Fine, I'm out now. Go ahead and kill me if you dare. If you do, I'll tell my uncle that you want my third brother to drop out of school and go play with you."
“I’m going to tell my uncles that you’re trying to corrupt my third brother and prevent him from becoming the top scholar in the imperial examination. If my third brother doesn’t become the top scholar, he won’t be able to become an official, and then my mother won’t be able to be the mother of an official.”
"My mother can't be the mother of an official, that's all your fault. You dragged my third brother into this mess. I'm going to tell my uncle, and he'll definitely beat you to a pulp."
The phrase "looking for teeth all over the ground" was learned from Lin Cai, because every time Lin Cai disciplined Big Gray, she would tell Big Gray not to steal food, or she would beat Big Gray until he was looking for teeth all over the ground.
After Xiaochunhua finished speaking, she grabbed a snowball from the ground and threw it at Zhang Tiancai. Zhang Tiancai glared angrily at Xiaochunhua after being hit in the face again.
"I'm letting your third brother go play for a while, not making him follow me around all day. What does it have to do with me if your third brother doesn't become the top scholar?"
"It's you, it's all related to you, it's all your fault, you're the one who let Third Brother go out to play, it's all your fault..."
Xiao Chunhua stared intently at Zhang Tiancai, not afraid of his fierce appearance at all. She even made a face at him provocatively before quickly hiding behind her third brother.
Seeing how mischievous Xiaochunhua was now, Sanhu sighed inwardly. If it were the Xiaochunhua from a few months ago, let alone hitting people with snowballs, it would be difficult to even get her to speak!
But now Chunhua not only dares to hit people, but also dares to provoke them. Sanhu is very satisfied with this result and also likes this kind of younger sister very much.
He looked at Zhang Tiancai and said, "I just told you, I'm not playing. You can go by yourself!"
Hearing him say he wasn't going again, and still angry from being hit twice earlier, Zhang Tiancai snorted heavily, "Fine, I won't go then. What's the big deal? If you won't go, I'll go by myself..."
Less than half an hour after the person left and the brother and sister returned home, they heard someone banging on the door again.
"Ah~ my son, my genius, you were so young, how could you leave us so soon!"
"My son, my poor son! You've left us like this, what are we, your old father and mother, supposed to do!"
A commotion erupted right at the Gu family's door. Gu Dachui, who opened the door, was a little dazed by the scene before him.
Lin Cai heard the noise and came out from inside. She pushed Gu Dachui aside and saw the child on the ground. His lips were purple and his body was soaking wet. It was obvious that he had fallen into the water.
Then they saw the child's parents: "What's going on? Your child is gone, what are you doing at our doorstep?"
"It's all your fault, it's all your fault! If it weren't for you, how could our genius be lying here?"
"If it weren't for you, how could our genius not have opened his eyes to look at me? He always dotes on me the most, and he can't bear to see his mother cry. He always tries to make me happy..."
“But now…” Zhang Cui couldn’t stop crying when she talked about her son. She really loved her son and really hoped that he could open his eyes and look at her.
But she has shed countless tears since then, and her son is still lying there with his eyes closed, not moving an inch.
Upon hearing Zhang Cui's words, Lin Cai squatted down to check on the child, but Zhang Cui pushed her hand away as soon as she touched the child.
Then she heard, "Lin family member, you'd better not touch him! Half an hour has passed, touching him won't bring him back to life!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Cai abruptly raised her head, her eyes sharp as she looked at the speaker: "You're saying this child drowned half an hour ago?"
