Chapter 41 Erhu, driver's license and a cunning father
When I stepped into the north gate of the community, it was almost nine o'clock in the evening.

Shen Mo wanted to call his mother back to ask if they had returned.

When I added Chen Weining on QQ just now, I found that I had a missed call from my mother.

Looking at the time, it was just when I was giving Sister Ning a massage, so I turned the volume to mute.

At this moment, a mechanical system prompt sound suddenly came from my mind.

【Ding】

[Trigger limited-time task: Master the professional level of Erhu]

[Detected that the target aunt likes folk music, having this skill can achieve twice the result with half the effort]

[Task content: Improve to professional erhu performance level within one week]

[Task Reward: 1 learning card in advance, lasting for one week; upon completion, 1 yuan, attribute point +]

Uh, this...

Father Tong is too sensitive.

Just now, Chen Weining just casually mentioned that she and Su Yiyun liked folk music during their college years.

Now the task comes.

But, isn’t this task too difficult?

Shen Mo had learned erhu before and even obtained a level 10 social certificate.

But only insiders know that the so-called social level ten is just the entry level, which is roughly equivalent to the level of the third grade of the primary school affiliated to the music conservatory.

Want to improve to professional performance level within a week?
Is Tong's father joking?
But fortunately, there is a study card.

When I opened the system backpack, I saw that there was indeed an extra learning sheet inside, with some related introductions below.

(Note: Using this card can gain super learning ability of Erhu related skills, valid for one week.)
It's too late today, let's use it tomorrow.

Shen Mo raised his legs and hurried on, but he didn't expect to hear a reminder sound in his mind again.

【Ding】

[You have a random task: Get a C1 motor vehicle driver's license]

[If you have a car, it's easy to find a horse; if you have a horse, it's easy to shoot. A man who is going to win back the battle cannot suffer a loss in terms of travel]

[Task content: Get a C1 driver's license as soon as possible]

[Task Reward: A Citroen C5-2.4L Deluxe Edition]

He was about to take a step forward when he paused, and an expression of joy involuntarily appeared on his face.

This is really timely relief!

A car is a man’s safe haven.

These days, Shen Mo increasingly felt that the performance of his second-hand electric scooter was declining, and it was time to retire it.

The Citroen C5-2.4L luxury version is currently priced at around 20 yuan.

Although the low value retention rate of French cars has always been a point of criticism, in fact, in terms of product strength, Citroen's overall strength is still relatively strong, whether it is safety or control, it is guaranteed, especially the excellent chassis tuning.

For him as a prospective college student, it is actually more than enough.

This time the system released two tasks, so it seems that I need to plan them carefully.

It takes a long time to apply for a driver's license, and the fastest one is 35 days.

This is based on the appointment for Subject 1 exam tomorrow.

Then the priority is very clear. First spend a week to complete the erhu task, and then concentrate on taking the driver's license test.

Shen Mo was planning in his mind and unknowingly walked to the downstairs of Building 3.

I saw my father's Jetta parked at the door of the unit. It seemed that they had returned home.

This car of my father's has been with him for some time. It looks a little weathered on the outside, but it can still carry the whole family steadily, just like himself.

When I looked up, I saw that the lights in the house were on warmly.

I went up to the 5th floor and smelled a familiar smell before I even entered the door.

When I opened the door, I saw my mother Zhou Wanyun preparing Panax notoginseng, Perilla stems, donkey paste and other medicinal materials in the kitchen.

Dad Shen Weiguo was plucking the little rooster's feathers.

Suddenly, Shen Mo felt like he had returned to the past.

In the past, every time I went home from school during holidays, I saw this scene.

My mother prepared the ingredients for the rooster soup, and my father was responsible for killing the chicken.

But this time, there's a little difference.

In the past, my dad was always excited and gloating when he killed a chicken.

Because watching his son swallow the greasy, bitter and astringent height-increasing rooster soup with a painful look on his face was the source of his happiness. He would always gloat over his son's misfortune and grin.

Sometimes she would look kind and say, "Son, your parents are doing this for your own good. Drink this to help you grow taller."

This is also the reason why he excitedly ran to the countryside to buy a few roosters before coming to Hangzhou this time.

But this time he plucked the rooster, portraying a person who had lost all hope in life and looked miserable.

the reason is simple.

My son has grown to 1 meters tall and doesn’t seem to need height-increasing soup as much anymore. However, he has looked a little haggard recently and has become the one who needs to take supplements.

Yesterday, my wife Zhou Wanyun forced me to drink two big bowls of soup. I guess his soup is also indispensable for the pot I prepare today.

"Mom, no, again?"

Shen Mo couldn't help but let out a cry of grief.

Smelling this familiar smell, he felt the psychological shadow deep in his heart rising.

"The senior year of high school is so hard, how can we not make up for it?"

Zhou Wanyun dried her hands and walked out of the kitchen, feeling righteous and confident.

"Why are we having the class reunion so late?" she began to interrogate.

"Uh... the meal took a little while."

It was hard to say what Shen Mo said, he went to a party with his classmate's mother.

In the kitchen, Shen Weiguo cleaned the little rooster and put it in the refrigerator, waiting to steam it tomorrow morning so that it could be eaten at noon.

"Wanyun, I'll go back tomorrow morning." He walked out and said.

"Didn't we agree to stay for two days and go back the day after tomorrow?" Zhou Wanyun looked surprised.

"Yeah, Dad, why so fast?"

Shen Mo was also surprised.

"Li City's business cannot do without me. Look, a customer is calling me." Shen Weiguo said seriously.

The couple opened a curtain shop in Li City Furniture City and their business was pretty good.

This reason sounds very sufficient.

Too bad you can't fool someone.

"Heh, I'm right next to you, how come I didn't see anyone calling you?"

"I don't know what you are thinking. Don't you just not want to drink that soup?"

Zhou Wanyun glared at him.

Shen Weiguo smiled awkwardly.

No one knows a man better than his wife, and his tricks were perfectly seen through by his wife.

Shen Mo suddenly realized, and stood up and hugged his father, "No, Dad, if you want to leave, you have to finish eating those two roosters together!"

"Who told you to buy so many?"

Shen Weiguo knew that he was trapped in his own web and did not dare to resist his son's "bondage of love".

After some negotiations, the three-party talks finally reached an agreement: Shen Weiguo will return to Li City after drinking chicken soup tomorrow at noon.

……

After the noise, 501 returned to its former tranquility.

Shen Weiguo leaned back on the sofa watching the TV series "Snow Leopard", while Zhou Wanyun lay sideways with her feet on her husband's legs.

Shen Mo moved a stool and sat next to his father.

Although it was a very ordinary scene, it was a warm moment for the family.

commercial time.

"Dad, don't work too hard in business."

“I can make money now.”

Seeing that his father had a few strands of white hair on his head and his originally straight back had begun to hunch, Shen Mo couldn't help but say with some sadness.

"Hey, look at my son. He's grown up and knows how to care about his dad!"

Shen Weiguo grinned at his wife with satisfaction, feeling as happy as if he had eaten honey.

"Okay, Dad will listen to you. If you work hard for a few more years, Dad will buy you a house in Hangzhou."

This has always been the couple’s wish.

"Dad, Mom, how about I go to Li City with you during the summer vacation?" Shen Mo hesitated and expressed his thoughts. He wanted to spend some time with his parents during this summer vacation.

"Uh……"

"Um……"

The couple were both startled.

"It's not impossible, but didn't you plan to get your driver's license in Hangzhou during the summer vacation and sign up for English classes?"

"The conditions in Li City may not be as good, and the storefronts are smaller."

Shen Weiguo expressed his opinion.

The couple did not rent any additional room, they just lived behind the curtain shop.

Shen Mo had been there many times. The place was small, with a lot of stuff, and was barely enough for a couple to live there.

It would be inconvenient if he were included, unless the family of three rented another house.

"It's just as well that your mom is here in Hangzhou with you, son."

"If you hold on for another year or two, Dad won't go to Li City anymore."

In the end, it was Shen Weiguo who made the final decision.
