Chapter 577: Chapter 577: You Really Shouldn’t Learn from Suizi
"You... you filled up the entire jar with human... waste?!!"
Suizi couldn’t eat anymore. Her face was about to contort into a symbol of distress.
"Yu Jingting, can’t you do something less distasteful? This is too..."
"Exactly! Civilized behavior won’t kill you, for heaven’s sake!" Wang Cuihua also felt nauseated.
Just imagine those two ungrateful sons of Old Mrs. Yu, oh, three including Yu Shuilin, being tantalized by the treasure map and dedicatedly serving the old lady till her last breath.
A tight after the old lady’s death, the three brothers excitedly started digging for the treasure.
As they reached out to seize it...
The scene was unbearably stimulating.
Yu Jingting was overly pleased with his ingenious idea, even going so far as to explain how he planned his fecal hidden treasure.
"If I filled up the entire jar, anyone could see it at first glance. Even an idiot wouldn’t reach in. Here’s what I did: I set it up in two layers, the top was covered with thin paper. Underneath, well, you all know what it was—natural fertilizer, human gold—"
"You don’t need to describe it in such detail!" Suizi quickly interrupted, hinting him to skip to the end.
"At the top, I put a silver dollar coin. Heh, good-hearted people like me are rare these days. Who would dare to say that I didn’t share the ancestral wealth?"
"You really have no shame." Wang Cuihua tsked and Suizi agreed.
"No matter how much I gave out, at least I didn’t monopolize it, right?" Yu Jingting was quite pleased with himself.
"I can already imagine the scene. They dig up the jar, reach in without hesitation, see the silver dollar coin and excitedly dig deeper, then—"
"Watery, smelly~" Yu Jingting’s descriptive details of the jar’s contents incite backlash from his wife and mother.
"Come over, the roasted sweet potato is ready." Yu Shuisheng, holding a shovel with a few roasted sweet potatoes, handed them over. They were hot!
"Try these roasted sweet potatoes, isn’t the texture somewhat mushy?" Yu Shuisheng peels open a potato and casually comments.
Suizi and Wang Cuihua’s faces go through a subtle change. This golden yellow sweet potato flesh, its mushy texture... really terrifying.
"What’s wrong with you all?" Yu Shuisheng asks.
Suizi points at Yu Jingting: "Let this mischievous man tell you."
Yu Shuisheng sits down cross-legged, eating the piping hot roasted sweet potato, giving his son a curious look.
Yu Jingting repeats his previous conversation and Yu Shuisheng becomes nauseous. Suddenly, the roasted sweet potato in his mouth didn’t taste good anymore.
"Dad, can I describe the hand feel of that jar to you?"
Yu Shuisheng puts down his sweet potato, starts cracking his knuckles.
"I will smack you into a pulp— stand there, don’t run!"
The father and son chase after each other, Suizi and Wang Cuihua have stomach aches from laughing.
"Oh boy, those laugh lines are going to kill me!" Suizi wipes away the tears of laughter.
"Sometimes I can’t understand where this kid gets his endless energy from?" Wang Cuihua finds her son quite peculiar.
Even when they lived in the village, he was restless whenever he had nothing to do. After moving to the city, he managed to juggle being a factory director, studying and pranking people. Didn’t he ever get tired?
"I used to wonder about that too, only understood it when Little Luobo was born. Mother, look at our meals now, quite expensive, aren’t they?"
Wang Cuihua glances at the barbecue ingredients. Indeed, they were quite expensive. Money for stove material alone did not even come into the picture; just buying lamb already costed more than some people’s weekly food budget.
"Now that our living conditions have improved, we can afford it."
"That’s just it. Some people might find it hard to afford stewed white cabbage and pork glass noodle soup every meal, while others can afford grilled lamb every day without breaking a sweat. Because the underlying circumstances of each person are different. The same holds true for Jingting, he’s naturally energetic. For others, doing something might be exhausting, but for him, it’s just an appetizer."
If energy were compared to wealth, Suizi believed, Yu Jingting would absolutely be the equivalent of a multi-billionaire with an inexhaustible source of energy.
While others might be falling apart after doing one thing, he always finds the time to do something else, tireless day in and day out.
"Our children seem to have inherited it from him. Look there, someone has climbed up the tree again!"
The father and son run into the woods, and in a few seconds, Yu Jingting has hoisted himself up the tree, sitting there munching on elm seeds.
Wang Cuihua shouts at Yu Jingting on the tree: "Don’t just eat by yourself, pick some elm seeds and bring them down. We can steam them with steamed buns tonight!"
"Suizi, come over!" Yu Jingting calls her, wanting to share in his discovery just like a child.
Suizi comes over, and he cracks off a large cluster of elm seeds for her.
The fresh elm seeds are tender and sweet, tastes especially good when eaten raw. Jiaojiao, leading Little Luobo by the hand, also comes to join in the excitement.
Luoluo, pointing at her father on the tree, exclaims in amazement, "Monkey?"
Bobo is looking at the elm seeds in his mother’s hand, his tiny eyebrows are knitted together, "Eat grass?"
"It’s delicious." Suizi picks one and puts it in her son’s mouth, Bobo cautiously grinds it with his four teeth. Then, his expression lights up.
"Mouth (hae fourth tone)... eat more!"
He spends a lot of time with his grandmother, and even at his young age, he already has a strong Dongbei accent.
"Up, up!" Luoluo is uninterested in eating but is excited about climbing the tree. She points at her "monkey" dad on the tree, wishing to also climb up for a better view.
"You’d better not even think about it." Suizi pinches her daughter’s nose, stuffing a few elm seeds into her mouth, Luoluo’s mouth pouts.
"Wife! I’m thirsty, can you get me a bottle of water?" Yu Jingting sends Suizi away and signals for Jiaojiao.
"Hand your niece over.",
"Aren’t you afraid of getting skinned alive by my sister-in-law?"
"Heh, she wouldn’t dare hit me. Your sister-in-law dotes on me."
"Hey, Sister-in-law?" Jiaojiao suddenly points outside the woods and says.
"Honey! This was all Jiaojiao’s idea, I didn’t mean to—Damn it, Yu Jiaojiao, are you trying to get yourself killed?!" Yu Jingting, having realized he was tricked, starts throwing tree branches at his sister. Suizi never came!
By the time Suizi noticed that the "monkey" in the tree became two, a few minutes had already passed.
There was an extra child in Yu Jingting’s arms. Luoluo sat quietly in her daddy’s lap, surveyed the distant scenery from the tree branch, just like a well-behaved child.
Suizi’s blood pressure was skyrocketing.
"Yu Jingting! Put the child down!"
"Oh, isn’t that little... what’s his name again?" Yu Jingting pointed in a random direction.
"Don’t change the topic! I won’t let you off the hook this time!" Suizi gritted her teeth. Even an elegant lady could very quickly become a shrew in his company.
"Suizi, Jingting, I’ve been looking for you."
A hearty male voice came from behind Suizi. Suizi, who was just shouting like a madwoman, suddenly froze. Yu Jingting in the tree winked at her. See, he didn’t lie.
"Liao Yong, is that you? What are you doing here?" Suizi took two deep breaths, turned around, and her expression returned to its usual gentle composure.
Yu Jingting whispered into his daughter’s ear, "See that? Your mom’s a two-faced little monster. Don’t learn from her, she wears two faces...
