Reborn at Boot Camp: General, Don t Mess Around! - Chapter 2802

2802 Amazing
“When I was young, Grandpa and I played reasoning games. It wasn’t until I entered senior high that I started winning once or twice against Grandpa in these reasoning games.

“It’s very difficult for you to win if you compete with Grandpa in intelligence.”

Li Jinnian’s reply made Ye Jian understand what it meant to have a superior IQ. “Back then, our country suddenly stopped receiving support. At that time, they didn’t have computers. They only had the abacus passed down by our ancestors.

“Grandpa and countless respected old scientists took their abacuses to the laboratory. Bundles of pencils and stacks of parchment paper filled the laboratory. The old scientists sat in the laboratory without the help of any computing equipment and took the remaining manuscripts that had been half burned. They used their abacuses to calculate day and night. They wrote the formulas on the parchment paper and placed the numbers on it.

“As long as Grandpa uses his brain a little, he’ll get you to agree to something without you even realizing how it happened.”

With that, Li Jinnian, who was driving in front, couldn’t help but laugh again.

The old man was as happy as a naughty child. Hearing that, he said to Ye Jian with interest, “Do you want to play a round of reasoning games tonight? This was your cousin’s favorite game in the past. Every time he came home and saw that I was free, he would come over and kick up a fuss.”

Ye Jian was really interested in this. She started to play a round with the old man in the car.

Li Jinnian shook his head.

In the past, he was led by his grandfather like this too. Now, it was his cousin’s turn.

Xia Jinyuan, who drove back to the Xia family’s old residence in Beihai, made it in time for lunch. Before he could rest for a while, Grandpa Xia pulled him to his vegetable garden and asked him to water the plants.

At this moment, he didn’t know that his girlfriend was coming over with her grandfather. Under the hot sun, he used his hand to test the temperature of the water in the water tank. It was already warm from the sun. Wouldn’t the vegetables wilt?

“Is something wrong with your eyes? Didn’t you see the newly turned soil at the side? You’re supposed to water that!”

The old man didn’t stand on ceremony. He knocked his grandson on the head with his hand. He was wearing a short coat and holding an old fan in his hand. He stood in the shade as he instructed Xia Jinyuan to work.

Xia Jinyuan resigned himself to fate. Not only did he water the old master’s vegetable garden, but he also went to the greenhouse to remove the insects from the plants that the old madam had nurtured. He was kept busy.
The old madam’s heart ached when she saw her grandson busying himself. She used the fan handle in her hand to poke the old master’s arm. “How long are you going to torture him? Don’t you see how hot the sun is? Shouldn’t you let Little Six rest well?”

“Why should he rest? If he can rest, he can run. Go and urge his mother again. See if she’s here yet. Ask her to hurry over and take a look at Little Six before leaving. She shouldn’t come and disturb you all day.”

When the old madam, who had a head full of silver hair, heard this, she poked the old master with the handle of the fan. “She doesn’t disturb me. She just comes here to ask about the situation. Don’t talk nonsense, lest Little Six feels uncomfortable.”

“He doesn’t like Shuman to begin with. If you say these things, won’t the mother and son become enemies?”

Although the old madam didn’t like her ex-daughter-in-law, she had never made things difficult for her. Now that she saw Madam Xiao alone, she couldn’t help but pity her.

There was a sigh in her kind voice. “Alas, we don’t want to see things like this either. However, Little Six is stubborn. We need to persuade him…”
