Novel Full Chapter 234 - The Fool
Chapter 234: The Fool
After Ling Sheng’s audition ended, she went to the market and bought seafood, which her father liked. She also bought a few fresh pufferfish and a tricycle, which cost her a few thousand dollars.
Huo Ci and Xiaoqi sat side by side on the sofa, watching television. The kindergarten teacher had asked them to watch a science video about roundworms. They taught the children how to be hygienic and wash their hands before dinner.
“Grandpa, do you think there are worms in my stomach?” Xiaoqi looked at Grandpa seriously.
“Yes, your stomach is full of worms.” Huo Ci was annoyed. He did not know why he had to keep the brat company while he watched a science video.
Upon seeing the child in the animation pull out a roundworm, he switched off the television immediately. He had lost any appetite for snacks.
The moment Ling Sheng stepped into the house, she saw Xiaoqi taking off his pants and sticking his butt out. He was lying on the sofa facing Huo Ci. “Grandpa, take a look.”
Huo Ci slapped his butt in disdain and growled in annoyance. “Scram! Why should your old man watch?”
Xiaoqi’s soft, tender voice was pleading. “Grandpa, Grandpa, I’m begging you. I just want you to take a look. Do you want to take a look?”
Huo Ci turned around impatiently and saw Ling Sheng, who was standing at the door like a fool. He let out a low cough and bellowed, “Why didn’t you say anything when you got back?”
Upon hearing the sound, Xiaoqi looked up at his mother. In a flurry, he pulled up his pants and buried his face in the sofa, his butt sticking out in embarrassment.
Upon seeing the scene before her, Ling Sheng looked at Huo Ci with a confused expression and swallowed with difficulty. “Father, what were you teaching Xiaoqi?”
“What could I teach him?” Huo Ci’s temper rose as he gently kicked Xiaoqi’s butt in disdain. “Why did you give birth to a fool? His father must be retarded!”
Xiaoqi stood up immediately and corrected him seriously. “Xiaoqi doesn’t have a father. He only has Mommy, Grandpa, great-grandpa, and great-grandmother.”
“Your father is still a retard.” Huo Ci looked at the child’s red face and said in disdain, “The Huo Family doesn’t have such a stupid bloodline.”
Xiaoqi’s delicate face became listless. He sniffled and pouted in grievance before saying loudly, “Xiaoqi is also a member of the Huo Family.”
Upon seeing the scene in front of her, Ling Sheng could not help but laugh. “So, why did you take off your pants in front of Grandpa?”
Xiaoqi felt terribly wronged. He told her everything about the video and whispered in fear, “Grandpa said my stomach is full of worms. They will crawl out of my butt.”
Huo Ci shot her a look of disdain. He had wanted to see what kind of fool she had given birth to!
Ling Sheng patted the child’s head with a smile, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. “There are definitely no worms in Xiaoqi’s stomach. Your grandpa lied to you!”
“Mommy, how do you know?” Xiaoqi wrinkled his nose and touched his stomach, worried that there could be worms in it.
“If there were worms in it, your stomach would hurt and you would pull them out. You wouldn’t gain weight if you just ate them.” Ling Sheng pinched her son’s tender cheeks. “Do you have any?”
Xiaoqi thought seriously for a while before shaking his head. His eyes lit up as he shouted, “There are no worms in Xiaoqi’s stomach?”
Ling Sheng replied, “No.”
Then, she looked at her father and wondered if he could talk to the child nicely or see how scared her baby was.
Huo Ci’s temper was so bad that he wanted to scold her. She did not look after her own son, yet she blamed him for not teaching him well. He let out a snort and asked, “Did you get the role?”
