Chapter 418 The child is too sensible

A few days later, the commendation ceremony was officially held at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.

Standing before the solemn and majestic Great Hall of the People, Jiang Si was filled with emotion.

This was her second time stepping into this place.

Last time, she sat in the audience as a military family member, but this time she stepped onto the stage as an outstanding worker.

From family to personal life, it's all about honor, but Jiang Si's mindset is completely different.

This leap in identity and ability undoubtedly provides a great angle for news reporters from various newspapers outside the venue.

As expected, as soon as the commendation ceremony ended, Jiang Si was surrounded by reporters as soon as she came out of the Great Hall of the People.

Fortunately, this wasn't the first time she'd faced a situation like this.

Perhaps because she was a few years older, or perhaps because she was in her area of ​​expertise, Jiang Si was confident and composed when facing questions from reporters.

He answered every question with ease, and even the staff accompanying him nodded in approval.

After the interview, it was already quite late.

Since the family was going to watch the news tonight, they decided not to eat out for the celebration dinner.

Jiang Si only learned yesterday that Huo's mother had generously added another television set to the old house.

When I got home, the food was already on the table.

The family had a lively meal together, and before seven o'clock everyone started cleaning up the dishes.

At 7:30 p.m., Beijing TV broadcast its "TV News" program on time.

Not long after the news started, the two little ones pointed excitedly at the TV screen.

"Look, Mom! Mom's out!"

"Shh," Huo Tingzhou whispered to the two little ones, "Watch the news carefully."

As he said this, his eyes were glued to the screen the entire time, as if afraid of missing a single moment.

Jiang Si was a little embarrassed at first, since all the content was staged.

At that moment, the whole family was staring at the screen, and she was so embarrassed that she almost dug out a three-bedroom apartment on the spot.

But it must be said, the photographer's skills are truly amazing.

The captured shots, with their perfect angles and lighting, beautifully showcased her dedication at work, her sincerity in communicating with others, and her excitement when receiving recognition.

Of course, the editor also deserves credit for their excellent pacing.

With the addition of voice-over narration and suitable background music, the final combination was surprisingly good.

Even after the news broadcast was over, everyone was still somewhat unsatisfied.

In fact, this program is already quite long.

Normally, a 30-minute program usually broadcasts three news items.

Giving Jiang Si nearly twenty minutes this time shows that they value her highly.

Of course, there were also many other shots interspersed throughout, with the two little ones appearing the most.

Because of this, the two little ones were even more excited than Jiang Si, the person involved.

After watching the news, she insisted on going back, afraid of breaking her promise to her friends tomorrow.

The next day, the two of them got up and washed up before 6:30 in the morning.

But they clearly forgot that there was another person who was visibly excited last night.

The brother and sister were just about to go to the bedroom to wake their mother up when Huo Tingzhou, who had come out a step earlier, hugged them.

"Shh." He gestured and said in a low voice, "Mom is still sleeping, don't disturb her."

The two little ones nodded repeatedly, and even reflected on their own actions.

"Dad, we were wrong."

"Mom takes us to kindergarten every morning, it's so hard for her! She can't even rest on weekends."

"..."

Listening to the children's thought-provoking words, Huo Tingzhou touched his nose, his face flushing.

He was about to change the subject when Jiang Si, still half asleep, opened the door.

When she came out, the three men at the door looked somewhat uneasy.

Jiang Si looked puzzled. "What are you three doing standing at the doorway?"

Upon hearing this, the two little ones quickly apologized earnestly, "Mommy, we're sorry, we woke you up! Go back to sleep, we won't bother you anymore!"

Jiang Si was kept up late last night by someone, and she didn't sleep well.

However, considering that today is the first time her two children have invited their best friends over, she, as their mother, couldn't just leave them unprepared, could she?

Before she could even speak, the two little ones said, "Mommy, you take us to kindergarten every day, it's so tiring. Starting tomorrow, don't take us anymore, we'll go to kindergarten by ourselves!"

The kindergarten is located in the family compound, less than a ten-minute walk from home.

Along the way, you'll encounter many children; it's very safe.

Jiang Si was still a little dazed and didn't react immediately.

The two little ones added, "That way Mommy can sleep in a little longer in the morning!"

Hearing this, Jiang Si gave Huo Tingzhou a strange look. "What did you say to them?"

Could it be that she's trying to shift the blame for her exhaustion onto her two children again?

It must be! Otherwise, why would the two little ones say this for no reason?

Huo Tingzhou: "..."

How should he explain this?

You can't say that the two children are too sensible and too good at self-reflection, can you?

Upon seeing his expression, Jiang Si immediately understood.

She ignored him and glanced at the two children.

She only picks them up and drops them off every morning and evening, so it's really not hard work for her.

Jiang Si patted the two siblings' heads earnestly.

"For Mom, picking you up and dropping you off at school every day is a very happy thing."

She wasn't trying to deceive them at all when she said that.

The time we can spend with our children as they grow up is already limited. Every day on the way to and from picking them up and dropping them off, I listen to the two children chattering about the interesting things that happened at kindergarten.

This was indeed a happy and precious time for Jiang Si.

"Alright." Seeing that they still looked conflicted, Jiang Si smiled and changed the subject, "Weren't we inviting some kids over to play today? How many kids are there?"

Sure enough, the moment this was mentioned, the two little ones' attention was instantly diverted.

"There are Qingqing, Niuniu, Honghong, Xiaogang, Leilei..." In no time, a string of names came out.

I knew the two kids were popular, but I didn't expect them to be this popular.

Based on this, at least twenty children will be coming to the house soon.

So, as soon as breakfast was finished, Jiang Si quickly started preparing food for the little guests.

The food was prepared well in advance, including tiger-skin cake rolls, alphabet cookies, fruit, White Rabbit milk candy, and orange soda, which is the kids' favorite.

In addition, Huo Tingzhou also fried a large plate of shrimp chips.

These shrimp chips were brought back from Shanghai during the Chinese New Year. Just as the two were busy preparing them, the two little ones ran over again.

He came over but didn't say anything, just kept following Jiang Si around.

Jiang Si: "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

Sui Sui glanced at his younger sister, and in the end, he took on the responsibility of being the older brother.

"Mom, are there enough cups at home for the kids?"

Jiang Si smiled; she had thought it was something serious.

There's nothing else in the house, but there are plenty of cups.

"certainly……"

Before he could finish speaking, he abruptly stopped when he saw the fleeting look of disappointment on the faces of the two little ones.

After a pause, Jiang Si suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "It doesn't seem to be enough."

As she spoke, she gestured for Huo Tingzhou to take out the set of cups with the words "Yihe" printed on them that Manager Mo had given her a few days ago.

The two little ones' eyes lit up instantly upon seeing this, their voices filled with joy, "Thank you, Mom!"

In the end, Huo Tingzhou couldn't stand it anymore and stopped them, also giving them a reminder.

"These cups are porcelain. They were a gift for Mom as a keepsake. Be careful when you drink the orange juice later, okay?"

The brother and sister nodded emphatically!
