Chapter 1186: 297: A gentleman of noble character is as meticulous as cutting and carving jade, as if polishing and grinding it.

Grandpa Du chuckled, "It’s been over a decade; I’m used to not having breakfast."

Zhao Yu said, "Good habits can be maintained, but bad ones need to be changed. If you had that unrepentant rotten attitude in my family, my mom would definitely beat you to death!"

Although Ni Yang usually doesn’t have much of a temper and always looks cheerful, she actually has strict house rules.

Because when Zhao Yu first arrived, she looked malnourished, so Ni Yang custom-made a set of Nutrient Pills for her.

Since they’re Nutrient Pills, the taste is definitely not great, and some even have a very strange flavor.

Zhao Yu didn’t want to eat them, but with one look from Ni Yang, she immediately caved in.

She hadn’t even done anything; it was just a look, but it scared Zhao Yu half to death.

Grandpa Du raised his eyebrows slightly, "I didn’t realize your mom could be so savage?"

"Exactly!" Zhao Yu swung her fist, "Are you scared?!"

Grandpa Du’s lips curled into a smile, his dark eyes sparkling with mirth as the warm sunshine peeked through the clouds, casting an even glow on him.

The gentleman is a cut above, precise as if cutting, carving, and polishing.

"Oh, am I really that savage?" Ni Yang’s eyes creased with a smile, and dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth.

Zhao Yu shook her head as if it were a rattle-drum, "No, no! You’re not savage at all! You’re incredibly gentle, quite simply the gentlest in the world!"

Du Jiaojiao chuckled, "Yangyang, you’ve set up some good family rules there!"

Before this, Du Jiaojiao also thought Ni Yang was just a gentle and kind-hearted person; she didn’t expect to be mistaken.

Ni Yang smiled faintly, stood up to take the breakfast offered by the vendor, and said in a light tone, "Without rules, nothing can be squared."

After the breakfast was served, Zhao Yu became distracted.

She began to gobble down her food.

She finished the breakfast, enough for at least two grown men, in fifteen minutes and, after eating, she let out a satisfied belch.

Du Jiaojiao watched in amazement, "Oh my! Duoduo, aren’t you stuffed?"

"Not stuffed, not stuffed at all, just perfect," Zhao Yu said, relaxing comfortably against the back of the chair.

"You’re amazing!" Du Jiaojiao gave her a thumbs-up, "By the way, shall we get going now?"

Zhao Yu continued, "My mom said you need to sit quietly for about five minutes after eating before you can walk. Otherwise, it’s bad for the stomach and even affects life span."

Du Jiaojiao laughed, "You really are your mom’s good boy."

"That’s right," said Zhao Yu, quite proudly.

After resting, the group headed to the train station by car.

Grandpa Du drove, Du Jiaojiao sat in the passenger seat, and Zhao Yu with Ni Yang sat in the back.

It takes a while to get to the station from here.

Du Jiaojiao looked at Ni Yang through the rearview mirror, "Beautiful lady, would you like to listen to some music?"

"Sure," Ni Yang reclined lazily in her seat, half-closing her eyes.

She hadn’t slept well last night and felt a bit sleepy early this morning.

Du Jiaojiao rummaged in the front and found a cassette tape to play music.

A stream of music, both strange and familiar, flowed inside the car, a bit fast-paced and vibrant...

Ni Yang, who had originally been squinting, suddenly opened her eyes and subconsciously hummed along to the music’s rhythm, "Sister Jiaojiao, is this the ’Journey to the West’ theme song?"

Du Jiaojiao looked back with a smile, "Yes! Yangyang, have you also watched ’Journey to the West’? It’s really great! It’s a pity that only 11 episodes have been released so far!"

Ni Yang suddenly remembered that the 1986 version of "Journey to the West" had already started airing, but currently, there were only 11 episodes available; the rest would not be broadcast until 1988.

Ni Yang nodded, "Yeah, I’ve watched it too."

Zhao Yu sat up straight, "Mom, when did you secretly watch ’Journey to the West’ without me knowing?"

Ni Yang said with a laugh, "You’re never home all day, running wild with Yunyun. It’d be a surprise if you knew what I’ve watched."

Zhao Yu continued, "Is ’Journey to the West’ really that good?"

Ni Yang nodded, "Good indeed. Oh, Duoduo, do you know why our country spared no expense to make ’Journey to the West’?"

Duoduo shook her head.

Du Jiaojiao was also curious, "Why? Yangyang, do you know the inside story?"

Ni Yang smiled and said, "Sister Jiaojiao, don’t you read the newspapers?"

"Newspapers?"

Ni Yang went on, "Actually, R Country made their own version of China’s ’Journey to the West’ back in 1978, but because the original plot and characters were so distorted and the values shattered, it angered viewers greatly. Therefore, it was banned in China after only three episodes aired. After R Country’s attempt, our citizens didn’t want our classic masterpieces destroyed, which led to the current production of ’Journey to the West’."
