Chapter 240: Extra (6)...His mom found him a stepdad

Although Xiang Chen and Huo Kai have been friends for many years, they only attended the same middle school. Huo Kai didn't get into the high school Xiang Chen attended.

Later, Xiang Chen went to university, while Huo Kai enrolled in a vocational school. Huo's mom wanted him to become a chef, saying chefs never go hungry...

Before signing up, she found a master for Huo Kai to learn from. He spent three days peeling potatoes with the master, managing to turn a basket of potatoes into only half a basket. He almost contributed his fingers to the pile. In the end, the master called Huo's mom to take him back home.

University tuition isn't cheap, and Huo Kai didn't want to go. Huo's mom threatened to beat him with a rolling pin. The last time she wielded this epic weapon was when Huo Kai wanted to join a gang. She chased him for three blocks that time.

But now, when Huo Kai stood still and let her hit him, she couldn't bring herself to do it. He had asked some friends who graduated from vocational schools. Some of the majors were incomprehensible to him, and the money they earned was meager. He figured it was better to start earning money early without studying. After all, he was already an adult.

How could Huo's mom not understand her son's thoughts? When Huo Kai did something wrong, she could hit him without hesitation. But seeing him stand there and let her hit him, she couldn't bring herself to do it.

In the end, Huo's mom cried. At his age, how could he not go to school? It was all just making a fuss about poverty.

Seeing his usually tough mom cry, Huo Kai was at a loss. He didn't know how to comfort her, so in the end, he could only agree with whatever she said.

Huo's mom was old-fashioned. She believed her son should either learn a skill or have a proper, stable job. The latter was preferable, but if that wasn't possible, he should learn a skill.

As for the salary and all that, she didn't consider it too much. Her son understood himself best. In her eyes, those who could earn big money were those with good brains, and good brains equated to good grades. Like Xiang Chen, who's wealthy now.

Xiang Chen: "...It's not that I don't have any, all my money comes from the demolition."

But that's just how Huo's mom thinks, and Huo Kai can't change that. He can't bear to argue with his mom, so he can only accept it.

They consulted Xiang Chen about choosing a major. At that time, Xiang Chen had just graduated from high school, so he wasn't very familiar with these things. However, he went to ask a teacher who had been very good to him and explained Huo Kai's situation, asking for help in analyzing it.

In the end, this teacher gave them an answer that surprised everyone: he suggested that Huo Kai apply for early childhood education.

Xiang Chen: "..."

The teacher's analysis was logical and based on evidence. According to Huo's mom's requirements, priority should be given to majors that lead to secure government jobs, like accounting and computerization, but Huo Kai was not suited for those. He just couldn't grasp it.

Although early childhood education involved a lot of learning, it was diverse. Xiang Chen knew that Huo Kai wasn't very good at studying, but he wasn't stupid either.
