Besides the desktop, there were also table legs, as well as stool seats and stool legs. Lu Wanqing processed all the materials directly in the forest before bringing them home.
If she didn't consider the design and just wanted to make a functional table, Lu Wanqing found it simple. She took out her tools, assembled them briefly, and a square table was finished.
With the table ready, the next step was the small stools.
Since they were temporary, Lu Wanqing didn't plan to make them too complicated. She simply made two simple stools based on her memory.
The table and stools were done. Lu Wanqing tried sitting on them and felt quite good.
Xiao Yi was also happy, "Mommy, the table and stools can be used now!!!"
Lu Wanqing smiled and agreed, "Mm."
After resting for a while, Lu Wanqing moved the table into the house, along with the stools.
With the table and stools, she now had a basic workspace. Lu Wanqing took out paper and pen, recalled the appearance of a lounge chair in her mind, and began to sketch a design.
Little Zhong Liyi craned his neck, curiously watching his mommy draw.
Lu Wanqing suddenly remembered something. She looked up and turned her head to look at Xiao Yi beside her.
Xiao Yi, being looked at by his mommy, suddenly looked dazed. He met her gaze, appearing a bit lost.
"Xiao Yi, haven't you been studying for a long time?" Lu Wanqing suddenly asked.
Little Zhong Liyi: "..."
Mentioning studies suddenly reminded Lu Wanqing of an online class method that was popular in the 21st century – online courses!
They were trapped here, but the interstellar era's network was so special that the signal was always strong wherever they went. Although they didn't have a star-net pod, they should be able to take an online class through the network, right?
Lu Wanqing thought this and then spoke, "How about Mommy hires a teacher for you, and we take an online class to slowly catch up on the lessons you've missed? Would that be good?"
"What is an online class?" Little Zhong Liyi asked curiously.
Lu Wanqing explained, "It's online. The teacher teaches from over there, and you watch the teacher from here. It's like a live broadcast. If you have any questions, you can send bullet comments to ask the teacher, and if they see it, they'll answer you."
Little Zhong Liyi's lips moved, and he hesitated, "Can I still build our little home with Mommy then?"
Lu Wanqing: "..." That was a good question!
As Lu Wanqing pondered, her optical computer suddenly vibrated.
Lu Wanqing was slightly startled and looked down to open her optical computer. She saw that Zhong Lifeiyu was calling her.
She was stunned again, then looked at Xiao Yi, and finally stood up to answer the call.
The call connected, and Zhong Lifeiyu's projection appeared before her. Of course, due to the optical computer's permission settings, only Lu Wanqing and Little Zhong Liyi could see Zhong Lifeiyu's projection. Lu Wanqing had also opened her optical computer's permissions to Xiao Yi, allowing him to see his father.
Seeing his father, Little Zhong Liyi immediately ran over, his eyes sparkling, and excitedly called out, "Daddy!!!"
Zhong Lifeiyu glanced at the child, smiled, then looked at Lu Wanqing and said seriously, "Wanqing, let him rest for a while during this period. Xiao Yi has been training and studying since he was young. He's never had the chance to play like other children. Let these few days be a vacation for him."
"What about his studies?" Lu Wanqing was still a little worried.
They were trapped here, and they didn't know how long it would take to be found. If they delayed too long, wouldn't Xiao Yi's studies be affected?
"Hmm, how about we schedule just two hours of lessons a day?" Zhong Lifeiyu pondered.
Lu Wanqing thought about it and agreed, "Okay."
Zhong Lifeiyu quickly ended the communication. Lu Wanqing turned around and clearly saw Little Zhong Liyi secretly happy. The curve of the little guy's lips was almost uncontrollable.
"You're very happy?" Lu Wanqing asked, amused. She had never seen Little Zhong Liyi this happy before.
But then again, not having to attend school was probably every student's dream. Children from over three thousand years ago were like this, and children from over three thousand years later were probably the same.
"Mm!" Little Zhong Liyi was an honest child. He turned to look at Lu Wanqing and nodded happily.
Lu Wanqing ruffled the little guy's head and smiled, "Alright, since your Daddy said you should play for a few days, let's have a good time during this period. Let's play happily."
"Mm-hmm!!!" Little Zhong Liyi nodded vigorously, extremely pleased.
Lu Wanqing then put on a serious face and looked at the little guy, saying earnestly, "But you also have to remember that studying is important, and you can't let playing interfere with your studies."
Little Zhong Liyi looked into his mommy's eyes. He thought seriously for a moment, then nodded heavily, "Okay!"
Lu Wanqing raised her hand and dotingly ruffled the child's hair. He was so well-behaved.
"Let's go, then. We'll go back and continue drawing the design," Lu Wanqing said happily the next moment.
Lu Wanqing had been drawing the design earlier, and Little Zhong Liyi had seen it. As they walked back, Little Zhong Liyi couldn't help but ask, "What design is Mommy drawing? Are you designing a new mecha again?"
In Xiao Yi's impression, when Mommy drew designs, it was always for mechas. She was amazing!
Lu Wanqing smiled and shook her head, "No, it's for lounge chairs. Mommy wants to make two lounge chairs, one big and one small, so we can lie on the balcony and watch the stars together at night."
Little Zhong Liyi suddenly stopped walking. He looked up and looked at his mommy excitedly, "Together?"
Lu Wanqing nodded, "Yes, together!!!"
Little Zhong Liyi suddenly became extremely happy, and his steps seemed more energetic, his back exuding vitality.
Lu Wanqing, in a good mood, followed the little guy back to the table to continue drawing the unfinished design.
When Lu Wanqing went to take the call earlier, she had specifically adjusted the livestream camera. The recording ball had not followed them and had remained by the workbench. Therefore, when she and Xiao Yi went to take the call, everyone could only see their workbench.
Everyone had waited for a long time and was finally relieved when Lu Wanqing and Little Zhong Liyi returned. Many were also curious about the online class Lu Wanqing had mentioned earlier.
"Ahhh, they're back, they're back! Quickly continue talking about the online class. We're very curious! Who was on the phone earlier?"
"Yeah, yeah, I'm curious too! Online classes sound good, perfect for children!"
"The two upstairs are devils! I'm a student, and I don't want to take online classes. Can't we just have fun for once after finally getting out?"
"Exactly, exactly! I was so envious of Little Zhong Liyi before, being able to go out with his mommy and have so much fun!"
Lu Wanqing looked at the bullet comments and then smiled, explaining to everyone, "That was Admiral Feiyu. He said Xiao Yi had been very diligent with his studies and training. Since he had this rare opportunity to come out, he should have some fun."
As soon as Lu Wanqing finished speaking, the bullet comment section immediately filled with many new comments. Based on their tone, they seemed to be from young students who strongly agreed with Lu Wanqing's words.
"Yes, yes, yes, he should definitely have some fun! It's so tiring to study at school every day. It's too tragic to go out for a trip and still have to study!"
"Same here. I don't want to study either. If I accidentally go out and have to take online classes, I'll definitely be depressed!"
Lu Wanqing looked at the bullet comments and added, "However, it's not that he won't study at all. Admiral Feiyu and I have already discussed it. From now on, we'll arrange for Xiao Yi to study for two hours every day. Playing is fun, but studying is still important, so we can't let it slide~"
