Gao Dashuai felt a pang of jealousy when he saw the children receiving sugar rewards, raising his sleeve and pretending to sob, "Others get rewarded with sugar just for answering 'dog's hoof,' and here I am, having worked so hard on my painting and not even a single piece of sugar to show for it."
The Lin Family matriarch glanced at him and said with a chuckle, "If you want sugar, it's no problem. Just wait until the day you can paint orchid leaves that actually look like orchid leaves, then come to my house and ask for sugar."
Hearing this, Gao Dashuai took it as the matriarch indirectly inviting him over to her place, and he felt flattered. He quickly raised his hand to his chest, pledging an oath like a determined revolutionary soldier would double his efforts.
All the older generation watched Gao Dashuai's act and could hardly contain their laughter, but they only dared to let it out after they had moved away from his table.
