Old Yang took the waterlon from Wei Kaiyun’s hand and went ho.
The two of them went to the brigade office. "Accountant Li, what’s up?"
"Xiao Wei, can you find a way to help teach Shuzhi? He’s my second child, already fourteen, soon to be fifteen, but he still doesn’t want to do anything.
I’ve even hit him. Now the kid is just working passively.
He’s not young anymore, in a few years he should be starting a family. I don’t expect him to have great abilities, just as long as he can support a family."
Wei Kaiyun nodded, "I can talk to him, but I can’t guarantee any results."
Li Yunqiang was really out of options. The kid didn’t speak anymore, just ate when he got ho and, after eating, went back to his room, ignoring his two younger siblings.
Actually, Li Yunqiang hoped Wei Kaiyun would guide Shuzhi like he did with Chaoyang and Xiang Dong, not just talk. But if he refuses, there’s nothing to be done.
Wei Kaiyun understood Li Yunqiang’s intentions. Right now, he didn’t want to spend the effort. Not to ntion others’ kids, even his own might not be easy to manage, it all depends on oneself.
Indeed, the influence of family on children is very important.
"I’ll go to your house tonight to talk to him. No, I’d better go see him in the fields now."
No point wasting one’s efforts doing thankless tasks, and not having one’s own ti.
Li Yunqiang had no choice but to nod, watching Wei Kaiyun leave, realizing that asking for help was futile.
He sighed; the second son was already like this, the remaining two can’t turn out the sa.
Wei Kaiyun arrived at the fields, walked around, and saw Li Yunqiang’s second son working sluggishly, not too fast, not too slow, but definitely giving off a perfunctory vibe.
He walked up to him, "Li Shuzhi?"
"Master Wei."
"Hmm, what’s up? Don’t want to work?"
Li Shuzhi had no good feelings towards anyone at the mont. Hearing Wei Kaiyun talk like this, his expression turned sour.
Wei Kaiyun shook his head internally, soone like him, even if you supervise him daily, it’s no use.
"Want to talk a bit?"
"Master Wei, what do you want to talk about?"
"What do you want to talk about? If you have things on your mind with nowhere to say them, you can tell . I’m soone who keeps secrets, absolutely won’t tell others."
Li Shuzhi was tempted. He had a belly full of complaints, but no one to listen.
He threw down the hoe, "Master Wei, let take you to a nice place."
Wei Kaiyun smiled and nodded, following behind Li Shuzhi.
They walked for about twenty minutes, "This is it? This is the place?"
Li Shuzhi lay on the ground, chewing grass, one leg crossed casually, "Master Wei, isn’t this nice? You can relax lying down like this."
Wei Kaiyun sat beside him, "You really lack insight. What kind of place is this? You haven’t experienced comfortable places. This is just outdoors. If you want comfort, I’ll tell you, the grasslands are truly cozy."
"The grasslands?"
"Yes, lying on the soft grass feels like you can touch the clouds.
The most comfortable is the hot springs. I bet you usually just shower, have you ever soaked in a bath tub?
Actually, a bathtub isn’t even a tenth as nice as a hot spring."
"But we don’t have that here."
"Yeah, this small place, what would it have?"
"Master Wei, have you been there?"
"Of course. There are also traditional dicine practitioners for massages; it feels so refreshing afterward."
"Master Wei, where is all this?"
"If I tell you, will you even understand? I see your state today, think you’ll never leave here in your life. Even if I tell you where, you’ll never get to try it."
Li Shuzhi suddenly sat up, "Master Wei, I know you ca to see , want to study hard."
Wei Kaiyun laughed, "You’re wrong. I just can’t stand you and wanted to show off a bit.
Whether you study or not, what does it have to do with ? Do you think you’re so important? Truth is, nobody is indispensable to anyone."
Li Shuzhi was stunned, "Master Wei, you ca just to show off?"
"Yes, I dare say I’ve been to most of the country. I’ve tried different customs, tasted great food."
"You’re still here?"
"Hmm, good question. Why am I here? Because I’ve seen the world’s complexities, now I want peace.
Don’t get smug. I’ve been through this, if I didn’t tell you, you wouldn’t even imagine it. That’s the gap."
"When I grow up, I can do it too."
"You? I look down on you. With your little brain, you’d be easily swindled outside."
"Why do you look down on ?"
"Isn’t it true? What can you do? You can’t even recognize all the words, if you don’t get swindled, who would you swindle?"
"Still trying to make study?"
"I wouldn’t control even my own son, that’s his business, why would I manage you?
Enough, talking to you isn’t going anywhere, I’m leaving, enjoy yourself, but life’s fair; if you indulge when you should strive, you will pay for it later."
Li Shuzhi watched Wei Kaiyun leave, lying on the ground felt uncomfortable now.
Since he’d been called out, he might as well not go back.
Thinking about Wei Kaiyun’s words, he really wanted to experience the hot springs and delicacies he ntioned.
Who says he’d definitely be swindled? He’s not stupid, after all.
Wei Kaiyun walked ho, feeling amused; this was purely wasted ti.
That kid is probably still lying there, not going to work. People like that will be like this forever.
Li Yunqiang kept an eye on Wei Kaiyun. Seeing him return but not his son.
"Xiao Wei, how did it go?"
"Not effective. You’re wise; as long as he can support a family, it’s fine."
"Xiao Wei."
"Accountant Li, it’s a matter of personality, it’s also because you didn’t instill the right values when he was young.
Now he’s practically an adult, with his own ideas. Who wants to work when enjoynt is better?"
"Xiao Wei, is there really no way?"
Wei Kaiyun shook his head, "No, even if you watch him daily, he’ll still be like now, won’t take initiative, people like that lack responsibility. Accountant Li, as long as his character is okay, that’s enough."
"So just watch him live a hard life?"
"You definitely have to care, you gave birth to him, you have to raise him.
I bet you actually want him like Xiang Dong?
But frankly speaking, you didn’t manage him like that from the start, now what can you expect?"
Li Yunqiang lowered his head in despair, always thought the kids were small, he could support them, that’s been harmful for them.
