Back and forth: I brought supplies to help the impoverished prince

Chapter 172 I want to know more about this world of life

When Cao Jinhua took out a small notebook and started asking questions, Qiao Shinian was curious about her behavior.

After answering the fifteen questions, Qiao Shinian felt a sense of admiration for the generous girl in front of him. She did not feel sorry for the paid and valuable knowledge.

Mu Qingchen only felt that the questions raised by Cao Jinhua were somewhat inexplicable and embarrassing, but he never thought that Qiao Shinian could actually respond.

Occasionally, she would frown and say she didn't know the answer to two questions, but she could promise Cao Jinhua that as long as she was willing to wait, there might be an answer in a few months.

Cao Jinhua regarded Qiao Shinian's statement as a polite refusal, but Mu Qingchen associated it with the so-called gift from the goddess from Wen Jiu.

He guessed that Wen Jiu's gift from the goddess might be closely related to Qiao Shinian.

But the strange "divine objects" he had seen in the palace were very magical and not something they could do. Just take the picture of the cloud scene in the sky. Even the best painter in the world could not achieve such a level.

He couldn't help but think of the birthday gift Qiao Shinian gave him. That painting was also very strange. It had a kind of weird feeling...similar to the paintings given by the goddess.

As for Qiao Shinian, she never mentioned her hometown or where it was. She just said that it was a better place than here. To the people here, her hometown was like a paradise.

"Miss Qiao is really well-informed. In that case, let's have a big one." When Cao Jinhua looked at Qiao Shinian, stars almost appeared in her eyes. "The earth dragon turning over will cause houses to collapse and the ground to crack. Miss Qiao, do you think there is really a dragon turning underground?"

"No, this is the movement of the earth's plates." Qiao Shinian picked up two pieces of cake on the table, turned the teacup lid over and put it on the table, then picked up a pen and paper and drew a diagram of the earth's splitting.

"To understand the principle of plate movement, we must first understand the planet we live on. The earth is divided into three layers: the center is the core; the middle is the mantle; the outer layer is the crust..."

When Qiao Shinian finished speaking, Mu Qingchen picked up the teacup and handed it to her mouth.

"Thank you." Qiao Shinian turned his head and smiled at him.

Cao Jinhua stared at Qiao Shinian in disbelief, "How can this be explained? Miss Qiao is a deity!"

"Uh... this is just some simple scientific knowledge. I can't call myself a genius. It's not my discovery, so I don't dare to take credit for it."

"No, no, no, do you know that no one has ever given any other explanation for these things? Whenever I ask about it, they always treat it as someone who has nothing to do, or that it is just an earth dragon turning over. Obviously no one has ever seen an earth dragon, but they say it is an earth dragon turning over, and it is even regarded as a bad omen."

"So I am an atheist. I don't believe in ghosts and gods. I believe in science." After Qiao Shinian finished speaking, she realized that she was a little excited and almost let the cat out of the bag. She said seriously, "Sir, please don't spread what I said just now, sir, and your little maid."

"Please rest assured, young lady. I only remember knowledge. I have never heard of other languages." Cao Jinhua quickly stood up and saluted Qiao Shinian: "Thank you for coming to solve my doubts."

"Why is Mr. Cao so curious about these things?" Qiao Shinian was puzzled. She felt that the world was not yet at the point where it had to pursue all the truth.

Cao Jinhua chuckled, then sat down and poured a glass of water for Qiao Shinian and Mu Qingchen: "I was a child who caused a lot of worry to my family, especially after my mother passed away, I became even more dull. Later, I traveled around with my brothers and my temperament became more lively.

I just want to know why the place where I live, the world I live in, is like this. Why are the leaves green and the flowers red? Why do ants know in advance that it will rain? Did God tell them?

Why do the tides rise and fall? Why does a bright flash of light on a cloudy day lead to thunder? Why does it snow in winter but not in summer or autumn? Why why why why why! "

Cao Jinhua became excited, her eyes full of curiosity: "Do you know this feeling? It's that I always feel that there is a reason for everything! I want to know the answers to all this! I want to understand the world I live in, I want to understand everything! Is it strange for me to be like this? When I was a child, my playmates always laughed at me and said that I was mentally ill.

This is why I am always bullied by them, saying that the Cao family has a fool, it has always been like this, there is no need to have so many reasons. But I just can't help being curious, I want to know. "

Qiao Shinian nodded. She took Cao Jinhua's hand and patted her: "It's normal. Everyone has different questions in their hearts. When I was young, I was very curious about why birds can fly and whether people can fly with feather wings. Later, I jumped from a height of five meters and broke my bones. I stayed in the hospital for three months. Only then did I realize that people can't fly with wings."

Cao Jinhua almost became a little fan of Qiao Shinian, asking questions non-stop and asking all the questions in her mind.

Qiao Shinian looked at the small notebook. The thick notebook was full of questions, and the notes went from immature to mature.

When she couldn't answer many questions, Qiao Shinian felt ashamed by Cao Jinhua's expectant gaze. It was really good that she could remember so much scientific knowledge popularized in elementary and junior high schools, but now that she met a person who was eager for knowledge, the knowledge stored in her mind was obviously not enough.

For four or five days in a row, Qiao Shinian went to Jufulou to look for Cao Jinhua on time every day.

Cao Jinhua obviously regarded her as the supreme teacher. Every time she visited her, Cao Jinhua would always go out to see her off with large and small bags of things.

Sometimes he would enthusiastically pull her to have dinner together, completely ignoring what Mu Qingchen felt.

Whenever this happened, Cao Jinhua's two brothers would always come out to smooth things over and apologize to Mu Qingchen with great apology.

From the attitudes of her two brothers and their families, it can be seen that Cao Jinhua is very favored at home. No matter how ridiculous the things she does may seem in this era, her brothers are infinitely doting on her.

The three nephews and one niece also love and care for their aunt very much.

Night, on the way home

Qiao Shinian took Mu Qingchen for a walk back to the palace, helping them to digest the food in their stomachs.

"It's really rare to meet someone who is so purely pursuing truth in such an environment," said Qiao Shinian.

Mu Qingchen nodded. Through the popular science learning these days, he seemed to have inexplicably learned the truth about many things.

The ghost lights in the cemetery and the meteors flashing across the sky.

To be honest, he heard too much at once, and he was actually quite confused now. It seemed as if some of his cognitions were overturned, and he also seemed to understand why Qiao Shinian was so confident and cheerful.

The place where she lived was truly a place of considerable knowledge. In fact, there were things in the place where she lived that he could not even imagine.

As they walked, Qiao Shinian suddenly let go of Mu Qingchen, frowned, and the next moment he held his head tightly with both hands and shook it.

"very noisy!"
