Qinghe County is a small county not too big, located on the southwest border, with four distinct seasons and a slow pace.
How can the pace of a small county town be so fast? Cities need to be divided into grades, and the classification is based on the companies they belong to, not the population. Super first-tier cities are home to the world's top 500 companies. Those companies have output value upstream and downstream, and they drive many industries. It is natural for residents to make money. And in small border counties like this, the only larger enterprises left are the small state-owned enterprises in the county.
You can't make any money, but it's relatively leisurely and less stressful.
As an art teacher, Li Lin'an has a lot of rest time on weekdays, and is a little busier on weekends because he has two training classes and teaches some children painting, and his income is not low in a small county.
The community they live in is the second batch of commercial buildings in this county. In this period when prices are not high, it doesn't cost much to buy a house. The area and layout are large enough. In terms of material conditions, it is very good.
If nothing happens on weekdays, Li Lin'an will take his wife and children to the river to sketch. The only not-so-good thing is that there is no car at home.
Mainly because Li Lin'an doesn't know how to drive.
But it doesn’t matter. The family walked slowly and leisurely to the river, exercising and running. This process itself is a kind of relaxation and leisure.
Along the way, Li Lin'an chatted with Shu Lan, took turns holding Li Chenghuan, and occasionally let his son go for a walk.
In short, it doesn’t matter the speed or result of getting to the destination, but the process.
Li Lin'an is a relatively gentle person in both words and deeds. He rarely gets emotional. In Shu Lan's words, the last time I saw him excited was when Li Chenghuan was born.
After arriving at the river, Li Lin'an prepared his tools and started sketching. Shulan spread the prepared tablecloth on the ground, took some cards or childish toys to play with the children, and looked at her husband next to her from time to time. .
Li Chenghuan was a little helpless. He tried to make his mother understand that it was too childish, but after all, kid at this age still had to look like a kid, so he could only cooperate in the performance and make his mother happy.
In his previous life, his mother had always been with him, pouring all her love into him, making him think that he was more important to her than anything else. Li Chenghuan only recently discovered that this was a misunderstanding.
In fact, when I was free from illness and pain, my mother clearly loved my father more.
For example, one day he fell asleep and suddenly woke up from the pain. When he opened his eyes, he saw that a pine cone had fallen from the tree above his head and hit his head. He looked at his mother quite speechlessly, only to see her distractedly looking at his father. Sketching, and then said quite seriously: "Serious men are so handsome."
Li Chenghuan couldn't care less about the pain in his head, he just felt that his mother was so numb that it made his skin crawl.
He still remembers that when he was reborn, the system told him that his parents would inherit some talents from him. Although they were not the ultimate top talents, they were still excellent.
His father will inherit his good memory, and his mother will inherit his good athletic ability.
But in fact, with the hard work of the vast majority of people, it is simply not their turn to compete for the upper limit of talent.
Regardless of memory or athletic ability, no matter how talented a person is, if he doesn't practice, he won't be outstanding.
Compared with ordinary people, his biggest advantage is that he knows where his talents are from the beginning, so he can avoid many detours.
Memory can be trained in some way.
And there is no doubt that the more times you train, the more obvious the improvement will be. Even through a large amount of training, you can change the brain synapses and truly enhance your memory physiologically.
Li Chenghuan likes to memorize numbers, especially those with no rules, which is of great benefit to improving his memory. Every time his parents take him out for a walk, he will stare at the cars on the street. Memorize their license plates.
Over time, this matter began to become easier. As the number of times increased, one day he suddenly mastered the trick of instant memory... As the car passed by in a flash, he glanced at the license plate and did not try to recite the string of numbers. It's like taking a photo, imprinting the entire license plate in your mind.
Later, imagine the license plate you just saw and read it.
This memory method is very effective, but he is not yet able to remember more complex graphics, and he will forget them if he does not recall them for a long time.
Therefore, he will also try to use the law of Ebbinghaus's forgetting curve to consolidate his memory. One day, he will finally be able to recall the license plate of the white car he saw at the intersection last night.
Memory can indeed be obtained and improved through training.
But this is probably a little game for my own entertainment.
Of course, the final analysis is because he is too young now. If he acts too evil, the surprise will become a fright. Otherwise, it would be more interesting for him to memorize words with an Oxford dictionary.
It was not until after his third birthday that he could clearly feel that his language skills had improved a lot, and he could speak most sentences fluently.
Although his father and mother still treat him as a child (isn’t this nonsense), they finally began to take the initiative to expose him to some preschool enlightenment education.
"The grass grows taller and brighter every year..."
"Li Liyuan Shangpu... one sleep and one..."
"What?"
"The grass grows taller and brighter every year."
Li Lin'an, who had just returned home from get off work, heard that Shu Lan was teaching his son to recite ancient poems. He smiled dumbly and said, "Isn't it too early to memorize ancient poems at such a young age?"
Shulan said proudly: "Humph, you don't even know how good your son is! Come on, let your son perform for your father."
Li Lin'an sat on the sofa, looked at Li Chenghuan with interest, and said, "Okay, okay, let's see how many ancient poems my son has memorized."
Li Chenghuan put his hands behind his back and put them on his back with a milky voice. The rhythm was ups and downs, making people laugh.
"The sun sets over the mountains, and the Yellow River flows into the sea..."
"Birds in thousands of mountains have disappeared, and every trace of human beings has been wiped out..."
"The grass grows and orioles fly in the February sky, and the willows blow on the embankment and are drunk by the spring smoke..."
"Wow wow wow wow wow..."
Li Lin'an gradually started with a smile on his lips, then the smile gradually disappeared, and finally he was stunned.
Shulan was very satisfied with her husband's expression and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh: "Haha...how is it? Isn't it awesome? Are you scared?"
Li Lin'an opened his mouth slightly, but he didn't recover for a long time, and blinked, "You...when did you start teaching him to recite ancient poems?"
"It starts this morning."
"I just carried a total of..."
"Thirteen songs."
"this!"
"I find it incredible too!"
Li Chenghuan felt proud and smiled crookedly, scaring them to death.
This is nothing to any adult who has received nine years of compulsory education, and it is even more so to him.
In his previous life, when he was in a hospital bed and in unbearable pain, memorizing things could distract him. He memorized a large number of ancient Chinese poems. Now he recited more than a dozen poems at once because his mother only taught a dozen poems today.
He doesn't intend to keep pretending to be a normal child. On the one hand, he suppresses his nature and is unhappy. On the other hand, he has never been an honest child in his heart.
There is nothing wrong with being a little genius or precocious from time to time as long as it is not excessive. More importantly, they will be happy because of it.
Li Lin'an found it incredible. Even though his mood was stable enough, he couldn't help but stand up and said, "Let me hug you."
Li Chenghuan proudly opened his arms and welcomed the hug.
Then, Li Lin'an hugged Shu Lan.
"Honey, you are awesome for giving me such an awesome son!"
Li Chenghuan's smile froze as he was left standing aside, and the corners of his mouth twitched.
