Uncle Must Have Had a Very Miserable Childhood, Right? (2)
Jiang Xiaoman played with it for a long ti and decided to take photos of each snowman separately.
The three snown were standing on the ground and could only be shot where they are. Jiang Xiaoman asked Jiang Xing to pick it up and put it in his hand as for the little pig.
“Extend your hands a bit more and move back a little.” Jiang Xiaoman shouted to Jiang Xing.
Jiang Xing obediently obeyed her request. When he heard the clicking sound of the shutter, his whole body finally felt relieved.
This little girl was too good at torturing him; his old bones were dead tired.
When Jiang Xiui ca back, the snow hadn’t lted yet. They already destroyed the snown, but not completely. Jiang Xiui’s sharp eyes imdiately spotted them with a glance.
She twisted her eyebrows and raised her voice to ask Jiang Xiaoman. “Xiaoman, did you play in the snow again?”
Jiang Xiaoman pointed her finger timidly and said in a small voice. “No, no, it’s not , it’s Uncle.”
Jiang Xing also imdiately said. “Yes, I’m the one who played in the snow. Xiaoman didn’t. Don’t worry, Mother.”
Who would’ve thought that as soon as his voice fell, Jiang Xiui’s face imdiately changed? She picked up the broom and growled, “Wow, you actually taught Xiaoman to lie to !”
Even though Jiang Xiaoman didn’t play in the snow, Jiang Xing was still beaten.
Jiang Xing felt so bitter. He was so miserable.

The snowfall continued for two days before the snow finally started to lt. The road to the city that was blocked due to heavy snow had also reopened again.
Jiang Xing did not waste any ti. As soon as the sky cleared, he imdiately said, “Mom, I have to go to the city again tomorrow.”
“You’re going to go again?” Jiang Xiui said worriedly. “The road is not easy; why not wait another two days?”
The road was not easy, but it was not impossible to traverse. Jiang Xing felt that it was unnecessary to wait. If he kept delaying, the business would never be finished.
“No need; ti waits for no one. Keep delaying, and before you know it, your whole life has passed before you. ”
When those words ca out, Jiang Xiui was taken aback and stunned.
This, was this sothing that her Xingxing could say?
He did not take the wrong dicine, right?
Jiang Xiui stared at Jiang Xing blankly, as if she didn’t recognize him.
Jiang Xing said aningfully. “Mom, don’t always doubt , and don’t look at like that.
I am no longer the sa as before. Thanks to Teacher Tang’s teaching and example, my mind has now been opened.”
“…” Jiang Xiui was speechless.
Those who knew would think it was enlightennt, but those who didn’t would think that he had been consecrated1.
But since Jiang Xing already decided, Jiang Xiui didn’t ddle further and left him to do his work.
The next day, Jiang Xing woke up early, busy like a bee.
He washed his hair with hot water and styled his hair shiny with hair mousse.
The ruckus woke up Jiang Xiaoman.
Jiang Xiaoman was half asleep and stared at Jiang Xing blankly, and then at the bottle of mousse in his hand.
Uncle hid such a good thing without telling her!
She wanted to use it on her hair too, but she was too embarrassed to say it.
That thing seed to be sothing that only adults could use; children couldn’t use it.
Jiang Xiaoman pretended to say unintentionally, “Uncle is so stinky.”
Wuu wuu, she also really wanted to try using it once!
Jiang Xing heard her then glanced at her, sneering, “Stinky? Don’t you usually show off your twintails to like this?!”
It wasn’t fun to see him like this now, right? Payback! Stinky girl.
“I…” Jiang Xiaoman lowered her head and said, “I’m not stinky. Besides, you are old…”
Jiang Xing was furious. He touched his hair with his hand and continued to sneer. “What do you know? It’s called ‘a good wine improves with age’.”
Jiang Xiaoman couldn’t outtalk him, so she curled her lips and remained silent.
Adults always had weird excuses and words, not honest like children. Hmph, it was all just sophistry!
When Jiang Xing left, he also took the cara with him to develop the film.
There was no photo studio in the village, so he had to take it to the city to develop the pictures.
Jiang Xiaoman hoped to see finished pictures soon, and happily sent Jiang Xing out and told him to co back ho quickly.

1. The words for enlightennt and consecration shared a letter, so this was a kind of wordplay.
