The Big Landlord

"Benzi, I will review my lessons at your house this holiday," Zijian strode into the main room, greeted him with a smooth face, threw his schoolbag on the table, and walked straight to Feicui, pretending to be nothing. Knowing, he said in surprise, "Yeah, Cui'er is here too."

Feicui smiled and said nothing, and continued to teach Linglong. After this period of teaching, Linglong could already do some single-digit multiplication and division. She also knew a lot of new words. She already knew half of the Chinese language books in primary school. , "Population of people from top to bottom, sun, moon, water, volcanoes, stone fields and soil, wood, grain, rice, bamboo, knives, craftsmen, carts and boats, front and back, left and right ears, eyes, tongue and teeth..." I can read it smoothly, and my progress is not ordinary.

Wang didn't want Zijian to disturb Linglong's study, and he didn't want this kid to take advantage of Feicui in the name of homework. He took a few steps forward, grabbed Zijian, and said angrily: "What's wrong with your family?" The environment is much better, why are you here here?"

Zijian's house consists of several large brick houses with special rooms for studying. The outside of the house is not a thoroughfare, so it is much cleaner than Wang Ben's place.

"I don't know how to solve some questions. I can ask Cui'er for help here," Zijian lied without changing his face without even thinking about it.

This reason was too far-fetched. Wang Ben curled his lips and said disdainfully: "Tui'er is only in her second year of high school. You are going to take the college entrance examination this year. You can't even do the questions in your second year of high school."

"Oh, there are always people coming to my house and it's so noisy that I can't study at all." When his plan failed, Zijian quickly thought of another reason, sat down at the table swaggeringly, opened his schoolbag and started taking out various books, and said proudly: "Anyway, I'll be doing my homework at your house, and you still have to take care of the food."

This kid is really thick-skinned. It depends on how long you use up your energy. Wang Ben turned to Feicui and said, "Cui'er, take Linglong to the bedroom to study. Lock the door bolt and don't come out if you have nothing to do. We won't disturb Zijian. This kid didn’t get admitted to college this year and it’s all our fault.”

"Okay," Feicui agreed readily with a smile, picked up the stool, hugged the book, and led Linglong into the bedroom. With a creak, the door closed tightly.

"You..." Zijian's wishful thinking failed and he pointed at Wang Ben and complained, but did not dare to say it out loud.

Wang Ben shrugged and smiled proudly, and stopped paying attention to the boy. He took out a martial arts novel by Jin Yong and lay on a chair to review it quietly.

From time to time, the sound of Linglong reading aloud and the sound of Jadeite teaching could be heard in the room. Zijian had no intention of studying at all. He rubbed his skin and rubbed it for half an hour. He still hadn't finished a math problem. He rolled his eyes and asked. He walked to Wang Ben and said with a smile: "I also want to be a tutor for Linglong."

"No," Wang Ben didn't even raise his head, frowning and refusing without hesitation.

Zijian adjusted his glasses and said unconvinced, "Why can only Cui'er do it?"

"She's only a sophomore in high school, so she's not as nervous as you," Wang Ben said calmly.

"I don't want money," Zijian discussed the terms.

Wang Ben ignored it, turned to the next page of the novel, and continued to stare at the book.

"I'll give Linglong two yuan an hour!"

"..." This kid is really thick-skinned. Wang Ben couldn't continue reading calmly. He raised his head and glanced in disbelief. He thought about it and agreed readily: "Okay."

"Seriously!" Zijian looked happy and hurriedly took out a hundred yuan from his pocket. This was given to him by Wang Ben on the first day of the new year. Two yuan an hour, several hours a day, enough to pay for the entire New Year's Eve. The new school year has started, and since the wool comes from the sheep, he has nothing to lose.

"How about you teach mathematics and Cui'er teaches Chinese?" Wang Ben suggested with his head held high and a smile on his face.

"No problem!" Zijian agreed without thinking.

Calling Feicui out of the bedroom, she was very happy to hear this idea, which gave her more time to calm down and learn spoken English. Zijian didn't want any money, and Wang had no intention of leaving Feicui, so he still paid ten yuan an hour, as long as he stayed at his home.

"Tui'er, let's teach Linglong," Zijian couldn't wait, said hello and walked quickly to the bedroom.

"Come back!" Wang Ben shouted, changing his smile from before, and said righteously, "Who told you to teach together? It's not a mess. Who did Linglong listen to?"

"Then I'll just stay silent and watch," Zijian suggested in a panic.

"That won't work, why don't you do your homework?" Wang Ben frowned and refused without hesitation, and said with a serious smile, "Follow the school method, one person per class."

"...Okay," Zijian reluctantly agreed and continued to return to the table to do his homework.

After a Chinese class, it was Zijian's turn to start math. Just as he was about to run to the bedroom, he was called back and placed the place where the math class was on the table in the main room.

Five minutes into the math class, Wang didn't even read the novel. He pulled out an English song tape and went straight to Feicui, who was listening to spoken English at the door of the main room. He smiled slightly and said, "There's a song in it called Argentina by Madonna." I cry, which is nice, and you can listen to it.”

The small tape was inserted into the Walkman, and the melodious singing came out, and a smile appeared on Feicui's white and rosy face.

"Let's listen together," Wang Ben suggested with a natural look.

"Okay," Feicui agreed happily and handed over an earplug.

Each person puts on an earplug, tilts his head gently together, and listens quietly.

When Zijian next to him saw this scene, he shouted that he had been fooled and was so angry that he blew his nose and glared. He dared to agree to let him teach just to make time for Feicui so that the two could be warm and sweet together.

Looking at Zijian's depressed expression, Wang Ben was secretly proud, "Huh, let's see how long you can hold on." He deliberately asked Zijian to teach Linglong in the hall, just to get a little intimate under his nose and make this kid give up completely. The idea of ​​coming home is to go home and review your lessons.

Not only that, at noon, Wang Ben and Feicui went to the kitchen house to work on lunch together. They picked vegetables together and chatted for a while. From time to time, they heard cheerful laughter, which made Zijian's heart tremble.

"book!"

Villager Uncle Luo appeared at the door with a smile on his face and greeted him cordially.

"Congratulations to Uncle Luo, you are marrying your daughter-in-law," Wang Ben said with a smile on his face. The day after tomorrow is the day when Uncle Luo's second son Luo Zhiping will marry his mother-in-law. He chose to get married in this first month so that he could go out to work after the wedding. No. wasting time.

"Are you free? I would like to ask you to help me carry the dowry," Uncle Luo said with a smile. The so-called dowry carrying is actually to welcome the bride. When picking up the bride, the dowry is also carried.

"This," Wang Ben didn't agree immediately. He usually wouldn't refuse such a happy event, but he hesitated a little. It wasn't because he couldn't afford it, but because the daughter-in-law that Uncle Luo was about to marry lived far away from Xiushui Bay. It's more than ten miles away. If you go, you need to stay there for one night.

"The other party has done quite a lot of dowry. There are more than 20 large items, and there really aren't enough people to do it." Uncle Luo understood this and hoped to persuade Wang Ben.

Hearing the sound in the kitchen room, Zijian ran over in panic. He changed his previous depression, laughed twice and said proudly: "Haha, go ahead, Benzi, how can such a good thing be without you?"

This kid finally got his chance. He wished that Wang Ben would leave quickly so that he could be alone with Feicui. He might take this time to have a stalker or express his affection.
