Dad, we are so stable, should we do something?

My second brother Tian Yuheng and his classmates have been preparing for the dragon boat race recently. This year, many students from the academy participated, saying that they wanted to have a good start. The academy also supported everyone and they jointly funded the construction of a dragon boat.

When the Dragon Boat Festival came, everyone in the Tian family went to cheer for Tian Yuheng. There were still many teams participating in the competition, and many merchants had also participated. The onlookers had been waiting there early.

"Sister, do you think my second brother and the others can make it into the top ten?" Tian Fuer said pessimistically.

"It shouldn't be possible. How can the students in our academy compare to those who do rough labor every day and practice longer than them. Look at their thick arms, and then look at my second brother and his thin arms and legs." Tian Xing'er was also pessimistic.

"Let's make a bet to see what place Second Brother will get. If we win, we'll treat us to a meal." Tian Yuze said.

"Shouldn't it be the loser who gets to pay?" Fu'er asked doubtfully.

"With so many teams, how can we guess the result? He sees that there are many people who have no chance of winning just like my second brother and his friends. You see that fat and big-eared guy, it seems that several rich men in town have joined, and it doesn't look like they can accomplish anything. So, I don't know if my second brother and his friends, who are ranked last, can win." Tian Yuze explained seriously.

"Tian Yuze, if your second brother hears what you said, he will beat you. No one will protect you if you get into trouble in the future." Tian Xing'er said with a smile.

"You guys have said bad things too, and I'm not the only one. Come on, tell me what place you guys guessed. If none of you guessed it right, how about picking the one closest to the last one? I guessed second to last. Sister, Fu'er, what about you guys?"

"I guess it's third from the bottom." Tian Xing'er took a look and thought that her second brother and the others had worked hard recently, so it couldn't be too low.

"I'm fourth from the bottom." Tian Fuer was too embarrassed to say he was the last one, fearing that he would make his second brother sad.

"Okay, then let's wait for the result. By the way, sister, did dad tell us why big brother didn't come back this year?" Tian Yuze asked.

"I seem to have heard that eldest brother is going to become a disciple of a great teacher. He just completed the apprenticeship ceremony under the teacher some time ago, and then went on a study tour with this teacher, and hasn't had time to come back yet." Tian Xing'er heard that this teacher seemed to be specially introduced to eldest brother by the eldest son of the Xue family. He resigned from his official position in the capital and was still on the way, so eldest brother went to pick him up. Later, the other party also agreed to accept eldest brother as a disciple.

"Okay, big brother is excellent. I want to find a teacher who is better than big brother in the future." Tian Yuze always takes everyone as an example and wants to do better in everything.

"Okay, the game is about to start, everyone, come and watch."

The competition had entered a critical moment. Several teams were vying for the first place, but Tian Xing'er was more concerned about her second brother. They were indeed a little behind and were not as good as those fat uncles. "Ah, why are we last? That scholar is so useless. How come he dropped the oar?" Tian Yuze said angrily. In this way, he won the bet and he still had to treat them to a meal.

"Okay, Yuze, you treat us to dinner today. We want the most expensive meal." Tian Xinger said happily after seeing the result.

"Hmph, if you're inviting me, just don't eat too much." Tian Yuze felt a little sorry for his wallet. He actually wanted to cheat his sister out of her money, but he didn't expect that he failed.

"Oh, there are delicious foods." Tian Fuer was also jumping happily.
