Chapter 419: 107: Capital Circle Big Shot_4

She was determined to straighten out Miao Yajing’s strange personality.

Otherwise, this child might just turn the world upside down in the future!

"I know." Miao Yajing’s face was already expressionless.

As soon as she finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the bedroom.

After dinner, Aunt Zhou Ju called Zhou Mei to have a video chat and catch up on family matters.

After a few words, Zhou Ju laughed and asked, "How’s Jingjing’s studies going recently?"

Zhou Mei said, "Her academic performance is still okay. The teacher said there was some improvement in the last monthly exam. This child is actually very smart, just doesn’t work hard enough. The college entrance exam is right around the corner, and she’s not focused on studying at all. When I scold her for it, she just gets unhappy and locks herself in her room, throwing a tantrum!"

At this point, Zhou Mei paused, "Last month, she even told me she wanted to join the school’s harmonica club. Can you believe that? She must be out of her mind. Luckily, I was there to stop her; otherwise, her academic performance would have dropped long ago! Not to mention a top-tier university, she might not even get into a second-tier one."

Miao Yajing really liked the harmonica, and it just so happened that the school had set up a harmonica club, so she tentatively asked her mother if she could join without affecting her studies.

But Zhou Mei didn’t even think about it before outright rejecting her.

The reason was that it would definitely affect her studies; couldn’t she learn whatever she wanted after getting into university?

Miao Yajing was very disappointed, and her total score on that month’s exam dropped by ten points.

Yet, Zhou Mei not only failed to see any issue but felt even more convinced that her decision was without fault, thinking, if Miao Yajing started to regress in her studies before even joining the club, what would happen if she actually joined?

Hearing this, Zhou Ju sighed, "It’s the same with all kids these days. Our Weiwei is just as rebellious!"

Zhou Mei continued, "Ju, we can’t spoil these kids nowadays. They need to be scolded when it’s called for, and disciplined properly. If I wasn’t constantly reminding our Jingjing, she would probably be mingling with the wrong crowd and become a little gangster by now!"

Zhou Mei has always felt that Miao Yajing’s achievements today are a result of her good parenting.

Just like what happened tonight.

If she hadn’t sternly refused Miao Yajing’s unreasonable request, who knows how much further this child would have pushed the boundaries.

All her little smarts are being used on stuff like this!

Zhou Ju nodded, feeling there was some truth to what her sister said.

In her room, Miao Yajing also heard her mother and aunt’s conversation.

A self-mocking smile appeared on the corners of her lips.

Her mother’s words had just rendered her efforts over the last three years completely meaningless.

Zhou Mei believed that it was her strict management that led to her current success.

Adults never seem to question their own actions.

**

The Lu Family.

Lu Lingli, looking at Grandma Lu who was engrossed in opera, curiously asked, "Grandma, didn’t you say Grandma Fang was coming over? Why hasn’t she arrived yet?"

It had already been two days.

There hadn’t been a peep from Youling’s side.

Grandma Lu hummed along with the opera before saying, "Your Grandma Fang ran into some issues over in East City that she had to deal with, so she will probably be delayed by a couple of days."

Lu Lingli nodded, "That explains it."

After speaking, Lu Lingli curiously asked, "Grandma, what opera are you listening to?"

"Beijing opera’s ’fight the dragon robe of a Beijing opera’," Grandma Lu answered.

Lu Lingli squinted her eyes, "I think it doesn’t sound good at all."

Why do old people like listening to opera? I don’t get it.

Hearing this, Grandma Lu immediately kicked out, "You little brat! Did I make you listen? This is our national essence; don’t you know how to appreciate it?"

Lu Lingli swiftly dodged Grandma Lu’s foot, laughing, "Which young person would like this, right?"

She truly couldn’t appreciate it.

Grandma Lu gave her a look, "Just because you can’t appreciate it, don’t assume all young people feel the same."

After speaking, Grandma Lu continued, "The girl who’s going to be my granddaughter-in-law loves Beijing opera; not only does she enjoy listening to it, she can sing it too! And what’s more, Lin Wu sings it quite well."

Hearing this, Lu Lingli looked utterly surprised, "Your granddaughter-in-law? May I ask who she is?"

Although Lu Manshan had been dating a girl for a long time, he had never brought her home.

Besides.

Lu Manshan had always been abroad.

With that in mind, Lu Lingli said, "You’re not talking about Lu Da’s bluff, are you?"

Grandma Lu haughtily tilted her chin, her face full of pride, "Of course! Let me tell you, everything about my granddaughter-in-law is exceptional, not to mention she’s beautiful and extremely capable!"

Lu Lingli’s face filled with confused question marks, "So does this mean... Lu Da’s been bluffing about dating someone?"

At these words, Grandma Lu’s smile instantly froze.
