Chapter 334 Hmm, your P's U is the best!
Jiang Xiaoqi has found a new hobby and intends to let everyone relax after the provincial examination.
However, after the four of them played cards all night, he felt he needed to offer some advice.
These are all his points, no, these are all his cousins and friends, how can he just stand by and watch them fall into depravity?
He completely forgot that it was Jiang Xiaoqi himself who had taught those people how to play "Happy Two Against One" a few days ago.
"Cough cough," he cleared his throat before speaking.
"Did you all have a good time?"
"Hmm, that's great, that's great. But Mingfei, it would be even better if you could come up with a game that four people can play together. It's such a waste of time to have one person sitting idle all the time."
Wow! Did I just waste time and not get to play any cards?
Very good. I didn't expect that you, Lao Wang, who are so handsome, are also a playful person!
"Heh, wasting time? That's easy."
Jiang Xiaoqi was unaware that his smile was somewhat eerie, and Old Wang felt a chill run down his spine, instinctively refraining from responding.
Ignoring Old Wang, who was pretending to be a quail, Jiang Xiaoqi circled around behind his cousins again.
"Are these cards fun?" — Everyone nodded.
Do you like to have fun? — Still nodding.
"Want to play again?" — Nods.
"Well, if one could put the same passion into studying as one would into playing cards, why worry about not passing the imperial examination in the future?"
Oh dear, what am I saying? How could my cousins not have a plan in mind? They are all my brothers, so naturally they think further ahead and understand things better than I do.
It's my fault for worrying unnecessarily. The provincial examination is over, so I should relax a bit. It's just playing cards all night, right?
It's really nothing serious; it might harm your health, damage your eyes, and affect your intelligence and memory—just minor things.
"Thud!" A handful of thin bamboo cards slipped from someone's hand.
"Plop! Plop!" Great, they've all fallen.
"If it harms the body and eyes, how can it also affect intelligence and memory?"
Jiang Hao struggled to speak in his hoarse voice. He didn't know if the sleepless nights he had been staying up for several days had damaged his intelligence, but his voice was becoming increasingly awkward.
Jiang Lin seemed to understand Jiang Xiaoqi's meaning. Indeed, they had been indulging themselves too much these past few days, and they were quite bored. These cards were perfect for passing the time.
Before the results were announced, I couldn't go out. There were books available for me to read, but after the provincial examination, I found it difficult to concentrate on them.
Thinking back to when I took the imperial examination, it seems that I felt the same way; for five or six days, I didn't want to pick up a book.
Even if I picked it up, I couldn't concentrate on reading it.
Just as I was thinking about this, I heard Jiang Xiaoqi's voice again: "Irregular eating and sleeping times will affect your health, and I'm sure my cousins can understand that."
Now, feel if your shoulders, back, arms, legs and feet are sore all over.
And your eyes, are they dry, painful, red and swollen now, and do you feel like there's something rubbing inside them?
Irregular sleep patterns prevent the brain from getting the rest it needs, which can lead to sluggishness over time.
Once a person becomes slow-witted, they appear very stupid. What others can write in a moment, you might need 25 or even 35 minutes to write, and you might not even be able to write as well as others.
If one thing increases while the other decreases, does that equate to a negative impact on intelligence and memory?
After hearing Jiang Xiaoqi's words, everyone looked at each other, feeling a chill run down their spines.
Good heavens, have their brains started to deteriorate these past few days? If this continues, won't they turn into idiots?
“Mingfei is right. We shouldn’t be so obsessed with trivial things that we neglect our duties.”
Jiang Lin was the first to speak. He felt his reaction speed was pretty good; look! He was the first to react!
"That's right, that's right... you're absolutely right. We really have become a bit too addicted to having fun, which is really wrong!"
Jiang Yan was the second to speak, and that was it! He really realized he was a beat too slow!
Jiang Hao tried to speak twice, but his cousins beat him to it.
At this moment, words like "slow to react," "mentally retarded," and "forgetful" formed a circle, swirling around his forehead.
Old Wang was still completely oblivious to the situation, demonstrating what true "slow reaction" really means.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiaoqi nodded with slight satisfaction.
"Sigh~ As they say, good medicine tastes bitter and honest advice is hard to hear. I was wrong too. I shouldn't have taught you the tricks you sometimes use to relax. It was my fault!"
The word "occasionally" was emphasized.
Jiang Xiaoqi's words made everyone even more embarrassed, and their faces even flushed.
Jiang Hao finally found a chance to speak: "Mingfei, don't blame yourselves. It's because we have poor willpower and are too playful. We have no self-control when we play."
Jiang Xiaoqi waved his hand, "I don't want to say anything unpleasant, but you all know that our Jiang family's fate is intertwined, whether it's prosperity or ruin."
My cousins are all the most outstanding members of their respective families. It was our grandfather and father's generation who supported the Jiang family. Now that we have grown up, the responsibility of supporting the family will eventually fall on our shoulders.
Our elders have laid a solid foundation for us, enabling us to begin our education and enter the clan school at a young age.
Compared to those farming families who can't afford writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones, and even struggle to eat, how fortunate we are!
This world belongs to our ancestors and our parents, but it will ultimately belong to us!
Today we are proud of the Chiang family, tomorrow the Chiang family will be proud of us!
We are like the rising sun in the morning, full of vibrant energy!
Our future is a future of mountains and seas, poetry and distant horizons, a future that benefits the people and will be remembered for generations to come!
Jiang Xiaoqi finished his passionate speech, and the room fell eerily quiet.
Jiang Lin, Jiang Yan, and Jiang Hao: Why do I suddenly feel so excited?!
Old Wang: Why do I suddenly feel isolated?!
However, as an outsider, he saw things more clearly. Old Wang felt that the three older members of the Jiang family could be sold out by their younger brothers and then help them count the money.
But he can't talk too much. Look at the effect, isn't it pretty good?
They have indeed indulged a bit these past few days, but it's all because those cards are just too fun! They even created several new game rules, which is quite an accomplishment.
However, these words must absolutely not be spoken aloud, as saying them would clearly be holding Brother Jiang back.
Mind your own business and you'll live longer.
Keeping silent is the key to good health.
The only disadvantage for them was that they were born in the Great Zhou Dynasty, where the term PUA did not yet exist.
Otherwise, I really have to say: Mingfei, your Photoshop skills are the best!
