Godly Stay-Home Dad

ime, it meant that their elementary school days had completely come to an end.

They had all become adolescents, with junior high awaiting them.
When the time for them to go to college came, they would be real adults.

“How was today?” Zi Yan asked with a smile after Mengmeng got in the car.

“We had a good time.”

Mengmeng’s voice was very crisp and pleasant to the ear.
Kids’ voices changed as they grew.
But Mengmeng’s voice had always been so melodious, which was delightful to hear.

She had really inherited Zi Yan’s excellent genes.

“There are a few students in the class who don’t like one another.
But they had a longer talk than anyone else today.
Gee, boys can be fickler than girls.” Mengmeng curled her lips.

Zi Yan couldn’t help laughing.

“Dear lord, you should stop worrying about others.
By the way, did you stay within your budget today?”

“Of course.
We only spent a little more than 15,000 yuan.
Muen was the one in charge of money.
She will transfer the balance to us when she gets home.”

After saying that, Mengmeng looked at Zi Yan with some vigilance.

“Mummy, are you planning to confiscate my pocket money?”

“What are you talking about?” Zi Yan couldn’t help rolling her eyes at her.
“Is your mother such an unreasonable person?”

“Yes, you are.
You always take advantage of me and Daddy.
Daddy, do you think Mummy is a bad guy?”

“Pfft…”

“Is she setting me up?”

Zhang Han coughed softly, put on a serious look, and focused on driving, as though he didn’t hear Mengmeng’s words.

“You little jerk.
Is it because I haven’t spanked you for a long time?” Zi Yan raised her palm.

“You can try.”

Mengmeng immediately stuck out her little butt, but withdrew it in less than a second.
Then, she leaned against the back of the back seat and giggled.

“You’ve really gone unruly.
I gotta give you a good discipline…”

“Oh, don’t tickle me.
Giggles…”

The mother and daughter roared with laughter in the back seats.

When the two walked on streets, they were often taken as sisters.
Zi Yan still looked very young, while Mengmeng was also very attractive.
She was now a big girl nearly five feet tall.

“Dad, I don’t like you anymore.
You never back me up.”

After she was done giggling, Mengmeng made a face at Zhang Han.

“It’s pointless to step up for you” With an innocent look on his face, Zhang Han said, “The thing is, as you’ve said, we would still be no match for your mother even if we team up.”

“Well, it seems so.
Daddy, you are so smart.”

“Sort of.”

However, it didn’t sound like a compliment at all.

Zhang Han scratched his chin.

“This girl is starting to have her own ideas now.
Even I am clueless about what she is thinking about.”

“Mengmeng, you are going to the First Middle School.
Who among your classmates has been admitted by that school?” Zi Yan inquired.

The results had just come out a couple of days ago.
Zi Yan had not asked about it yet.

“Muen, Xiao Qi, and about seven other classmates have been admitted.
At least that’s what I’ve heard so far,” Mengmeng replied.

“That sounds pretty reasonable.
Mengmeng, I suppose you’ll be assigned to one of the advanced classes.
But since the ordinary classes are planning to recruit more students, some more of your friends may go to that school as well,” Zi Yan muttered.

The First Middle School was the best middle school in the region.
Therefore, many parents would do everything they could to send their children to that school.

It was rather difficult to get into that school through the official entrance examination.
However, the school was expanding enrollment, which meant that some students could buy their way in.
In order to let their children get a better education, many parents were willing to pay the price.

However, how well they could learn was totally up to the students themselves.
If they were not the academic material, it would be useless no matter how great the school they were enrolled in.

“But no matter what, when you are in school, you have got to focus on studying.
If your grades are satisfying, I and your Daddy will be very happy.
And we will also reward you,” Zi Yan said.

This was a warning for Mengmeng.
She was trying to tell her that even though she was starting to learn cultivation, she should not give up on her studies.

If that was the case, Zi Yan would immediately terminate her cultivation.

But to tell the truth, Zi Yan was not too concerned.

Mengmeng had been given a lot of time to play in the past six years.
Usually, she only did her studying in class.
When she came home after class, she was only required to spend a little time reviewing her lessons.
And that was all the study she needed to do to get good grades.

Had she spent every hour of her free time on schoolwork, Zi Yan would not be surprised even if Mengmeng took first place in the entrance examination in Xiangjiang.
After all, her daughter was very bright.

“Mummy, just put your heart back in your chest.
I haven’t found school any bit challenging.” Mengmeng shook her head.

“You seem quite confident.” Zi Yan smiled.

Her daughter had grown from a delicate little girl to a cheerful and out-going young lady.
Zi Yan had been aware of her changes the whole time.

It was just that sometimes Mengmeng would also give people a headache.

Sure enough—

When they were back at Mount New Moon, Mengmeng eagerly ran to the back mountain to play.

Suddenly, she looked back.

“Eh? Grandpa, what are you doing?” Mengmeng asked in bafflement.

“I’m fishing,” Zhang Guangyou answered with a smile.

“Then why aren’t you using a fishhook?”

Mengmeng pointed at the fishing rod.
There was only a fishing line draping from the rod, which even touched the bottom of the pool, but there was no hook tied to the line.
“This can’t be fishing.
Grandpa must be kidding.”

“Mengmeng, have you heard this saying before?”

“What saying?”

“When Jiang Ziya went fishing… and what’s the rest of the sentence?”

Zhang Guangyou touched his stubble and waited for Mengmeng to complete his words.

Mengmeng walked over quickly, reached out her right hand, and answered straightforwardly—

“You’re fined 200 yuan!”

Zhang Guangyou, “Huh?”

“Pay the fine now!”

Mengmeng, like a miser, was trying to exploit her grandfather.

Behind her, Zi Yan couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed.

“Mengmeng!”

There was a hint of helplessness in Zi Yan’s disapproving tone.

What made her helpless was…

“Hey, Yan, don’t tell off my granddaughter.
She just did what she should do.
How could I not be fined fishing here? Isn’t it so, Mengmeng?”
