1037 Not Good at Something

The moment any of them left the house, they would be surrounded and intercepted by the people outside and these people were unrelenting. However, these people definitely had no intention of starving the residents of the courtyard house. They bought a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables every day for Li Gui and the others and would leave the groceries outside the door.

Li Gui and the rest did not even bother to take a look. They were not interested at all.

“This is really like a weasel paying a visit to a chicken!” Zhang Miao muttered angrily.

“What does that mean?” Zhang Wei asked as he looked at Zhang Miao curiously.

Zhang Chao whispered from the side, “Being up to no good.”

Weasels preyed on chicken and it was their favorite food. What kind of predator would send gifts to its prey?

Zheng Peng was also trapped in Li Gui’s house. He actually found life quite comfortable. He was a person who was satisfied as long as he had food to eat and he was not picky about food at all. However, he just felt a little defeated during this period of time.

Qiao Qiang kept asking Zheng Peng to play chess with him. Zheng Peng originally thought that he would definitely be able to defeat Qiao Qiang with his skills, but he did not expect to be completely crushed by Qiao Qiang in less than 10 minutes. Zheng Peng felt indignant and continued to play a few more rounds, but he lost every round to Qiao Qiang without any exception.

“Why can’t you even win against my grandfather?” Zhang Chao’s immature voice sounded beside Zheng Peng.

“Are you saying that you play better than your grandfather?” Zheng Peng asked curiously.

Qiao Qiang grabbed Zhang Chao proudly and said, “Our Zhang Chao is invincible in the park! No one can win against our Xiao Chao. Do you think he read all those books for nothing?”

Zheng Peng suddenly felt a little emotional as he thought about Qiao Mei’s philosophy when it came to education. She was different from most people. Other families would not let their children spend so much time and effort on these hobbies. They would say that if the children could not even absorb the contents of the school textbooks, then how could they spend so much time on these hobbies?

He had asked Qiao Mei about this before. Qiao Mei said that there were so many professions in this world and each profession would have its own master. Zhang Wei had his mind set on being a soldier, so if he persisted and continued to chase after his dream, he could definitely become the most outstanding soldier. As for Zhang Chao, at such a young age, he had already mastered knowledge that surpa.s.sed what many children his age knew. This was his strength. One should study to broaden one’s horizons, not to study for the sake of studying.

As for Zhang Qin and Zhang Miao, Qiao Mei did not want them to live a tiring life. However, if she nurtured Zhang Qin well, then Zhang Qin might be able to take over her business in the future! At that time, Zhang Qin would be known as a famous female entrepreneur in the capital!

“Come! I’ll play a round with you! I don’t believe that you can beat me!” Zheng Peng said stubbornly.

This time, he suffered an even bigger defeat. The game lasted for 20 minutes though, and the reason was because Zheng Peng did not know how to play his moves and needed to think for a long time. If not for Zhang Chao being a patient boy, he would not have wanted to play with Zheng Peng anymore.

“I have never expected that there is something which Professor is not good at,” Zhang Chao said softly.

Zheng Peng smiled and patted Zhang Chao’s head. “I’m not Superman, so how can I know everything? Of course there are things that I’m not good at. There will also be things that you’re not good at.”

Zhang Chao’s eyes suddenly lit up. He looked at Zheng Peng in surprise and asked, “Really? But none of the children outside are willing to play with me. They say that I’m a boring person…”

“Our Xiao Chao is just not good with words. It’s not that you’re boring. Don’t you see that I like talking to you? You’re also willing to chat with me. You don’t need to expect everyone to like you, but you have to like yourself, do you understand?” Zheng Peng said.

The thing that made Zheng Peng sad was not the fact that Zhang Chao defeated him, but that Zhang Chao even comforted him after defeating him and said that his chess skills were only average!

That was not acceptable! He must work hard to improve his chess skills! He must surpa.s.s Zhang Chao! At the very least, he must be better than Qiao Qiang!

After a few days of persistent research and learning, Zheng Peng could finally last 20 minutes when playing with Qiao Qiang. This could be considered a huge improvement. After all, Qiao Qiang was not as amiable as Zhang Chao, who would wait patiently for him to make his moves.

Even before dawn the next morning, the area outside the Xia family’s main door was already packed with people. These people were all prepared for a protracted battle. They each had a small stool with them and some people were even ready to set up tents outside the main door.
