Chapter 81: Flashy Appearance
Yu Xiangwan smiled
"It's because the children in our Yuhong class sing so well," she said with a smile, "They sing so well, but it would be a waste if there is no stage for them to perform on."
Yu Xiangwan slightly adjusted the order of events.
Now that it's confirmed, she'll work harder to train her children.
Mrs. Yang exclaimed: "Young people still dare to think and do."
Neither of the two sisters-in-law wanted to go on stage. They planned to fully support Yu Xiangwan and the children.
Yu Xiangwan told the children that they would perform this song in front of many, many people, and the children were very excited.
There was no trace of fear on their faces.
However, not being afraid now does not mean that you will not be afraid when you actually take the stage.
After all, saying that one can do something is one thing, but whether one can do it is another.
But it doesn't matter, Yu Xiang's evening party gradually helps the children adapt to the stage and more people.
For example, take them to the flag-raising ceremony.
A group of little kids participated in the flag-raising ceremony, which was something worthy of attention in front of a group of primary school students, middle school students and teachers.
What's more, these little kids are all trying hard to keep a straight face, which creates a unique kind of cute contrast.
The children in the Yuhong class are indeed very serious.
Because Teacher Xiao Yu said that flag-raising is a very serious matter and we cannot joke around or play pranks.
Otherwise, they will have no candy!
I can’t live without sugar!
For the children in the Yuhong class, candy is everything, and they must seize all the victories of eating candy!
Yu Xiangwan did not let the children down.
After the flag-raising ceremony, the first thing Yu Xiangwan did when she got home was to fulfill her promise and give candies to the children.
Time flies and it is the day before National Day.
Taking parents' participation into consideration, the school party will officially start after dinner, and any parents who are free can come and participate.
After dinner, the parents went out in groups of three or four.
"Hey, Erdan's mother, isn't your son Erdan in the Red Education Class? Why are you going to the party?"
"Hey, he must be free, just like me. It's rare to see such a lively place, so I can join in the fun."
Erdan's mother smiled with a reserved and proud smile: "Our Erdan is going to perform too."
The sisters-in-law who came with me were all very surprised.
"How old is Erdan? Three or four, maybe? So young!"
"That's right. What does such a young person know?"
When Erdan's mother heard this, she disagreed.
"I really didn't understand it before, but after attending the Red Education Class, things are different!"
"You don't know," Erdan's mother began to talk, "On the first day of the Yuhong class, he learned to count and could even write one, two, three. Now he can count to fifty!"
"Wow!"
“That’s amazing!”
The approval and surprise from the people around her made Erdan's mother even more excited to talk.
"That's right. Some time ago, he showed off to me that he could feed rabbits. He even wanted to teach me how to cut grass to feed rabbits. I was so happy!"
Parents all like smart children, and when they heard such words, they all laughed.
"It's hilarious that a little kid actually understands this, hahaha!"
Erdan's mother explained, "They all learned it in the Yuhong class. You may not know that the teacher even borrowed a rabbit to show the children. He was very patient."
"They also took the children to pick wild fruits and taught them not to go to the river alone, not to open the door to strangers, and not to follow strangers. Erdan came home with a set of clothes every day."
Not all families have children attending Yuhong classes.
Some busy parents don't have time to pay attention to what their neighbors are doing, let alone a child.
At this time, I heard Erdan's mother's introduction, which was extremely novel.
"Our children have attended the Red Education Class before, but they didn't teach these things back then."
"Of course I did. At the time, I thought it would be nice to have someone to help take care of the child."
Erdan's mother laughed and said sincerely, "Because not all teachers are as responsible as the current teacher of the Yuhong class!"
As a loyal fan of Yu Xiangwan's fan club, Erdan's mother introduced Yu Xiangwan eloquently.
"...Don't underestimate Teacher Xiao Yu because she is young. Only young teachers have so many ideas..."
She talked a lot, becoming more and more excited and louder as she spoke, attracting a crowd of parents.
This made Erdan's mother more eager to share, and also made people around her more curious about Yu Xiangwan.
Yu Xiangwan, without knowing it, had gained a lot of reputation points.
The topic didn't get off the topic for long before Erdan's mother quickly returned to the party tonight.
She said proudly, "Don't think that children can't accomplish anything just because they are young. I heard that the Red Education Class has made very thorough preparations for this gala."
"My kid hums songs every day when he comes home. He's serious about it."
"Teacher Xiao Yu said it well. No matter how the song turns out, as long as a child of this age is not afraid of the stage, he will be amazing."
"When parents are free, please go and show your support, clap your hands and give your children some encouragement."
The parents around were amazed, but also agreed very much.
"Yeah, that's pretty amazing too."
"By the way, I heard that children as young as one or two years old can play. Is that true?"
The only contact, Erdan's mother, confirmed: "Yes, all of them are in the Yuhong class."
The sisters-in-law around her cried out in surprise again.
"When my children were that age, the crotch pants were still popular."
"Hey, I want to see how these kids sing tonight."
Through word of mouth, more and more parents are curious about the performance of the Yuhong class tonight.
Everyone was there to watch the fun, and no one expected a group of kids to do well.
However, Principal Liu, who had seen the rehearsal, was very optimistic about it.
He specially arranged the order in which the children would perform.
Considering that these children are still young and have limited patience, they definitely cannot be left until last, otherwise he would really have planned to do so.
He placed the children at the first peak of the first wave of performances, ranking third.
By this time, the atmosphere had warmed up and most people were looking forward to the party.
Yu Xiangwan was also very satisfied with this order.
Seeing more and more people gathering below the stage, the host was also preparing to come on stage. She thought it was almost time, so she asked the children who were playing to gather together.
"Come on, assemble!"
The little guys were very obedient. They ran over quickly and stood in the order of the performance.
This process has been rehearsed countless times.
"I'm about to go on stage. What should I do if I see a lot of people?"
All the children said in unison: "Look at the teacher!"
"Yes, the teacher is right downstairs, just look at the teacher!" Yu Xiangwan instructed.
"We are the best, right!"
"right!"
Very good, the momentum is there!
The children's clear and loud voices made the parents laugh.
The children were in the backstage. Although we couldn't see them, we could tell from their lively voices that they were full of energy.
Of course, Lu Yingzheng also brought Nian Lin Nian Yan and Xiao Xiao to support Yu Xiangwan.
He had previously asked Yu Xiangwan what she was going to perform, and Yu Xiangwan said it was a secret.
Lu Yingzheng didn't ask any more questions, but he had already guessed what the performance would be from some daily clues.
He wouldn't be stupid enough to tell Yu Xiangwan, wouldn't that be a waste of Yu Xiangwan's "surprise"?
"Xiao Lu, do you know what Xiao Yu is going to perform with those kids tonight?" Political Commissar Yang asked curiously.
Of course Lu Yingzheng wanted to keep it a secret for Yu Xiangwan: "I don't know, we'll know when we see it later."
Political Commissar Yang: "My wife's temper has been getting better and better since she started to work with your Xiao Yu to teach the Red Class."
He snickered: "Xiao Yu is really good. He can actually change my old woman's temper."
Hearing what Political Commissar Yang said, Lu Yingzheng was stunned.
"Your Xiao Yu", this sentence is really...
A strange emotion surged in Lu Yingzheng's heart.
This kind of intimacy, which was recognized by others, gave him an inexplicable impulse. ???
He wanted others to keep saying this, and he wanted Yu Xiangwan to stay in his home forever.
Lu Yingzheng was a little absent-minded.
A slight pain in his head brought him back to his senses.
He held Nian Yan's little paw.
"Oh oh!" The child's childish cry brought him back to the scene.
He didn't bring the stroller out tonight because there were too many people and it was inconvenient.
It just so happened that Mrs. Yang and Yu Xiangwan were going to lead the Yuhong class, so he and Political Commissar Yang became "alones".
So, he asked Political Commissar Yang to help take care of the child.
Nian Yan rode on his head, and Nian Lin rode on Political Commissar Yang's head.
These two little guys love climbing the most.
Not only can we climb up to a high place, but we can also see so many people. We are so excited.
Not only the twins, but everyone around them was as excited as them.
I don't know who shouted "Let's start", but everyone gradually quieted down.
The host comes on stage, the leader speaks, and the opening performance begins.
Finally, it's the third show's turn.
"Next, please invite the children from the Yuhong class to sing "Singing the Motherland" for us!"
Yu Xiangwan waved gently to the children and Sisters Yang and Haiping.
The children started to move, and Sisters Yang and Haiping helped to maintain order.
As for herself, she walked to the stage with her head held high and a smile on her face.
The children performed on the stage and she conducted off the stage.
Yu Xiangwan could see the panic flashing in the eyes of several children.
She used high fives very skillfully to attract the children's attention: "Focus, whose little eyes are not looking at the teacher?"
Hearing the familiar words, the children all looked at her, and as expected, they calmed down immediately.
The adults and parents in the audience were immediately impressed by the artifact and started whispering to each other.
"I really didn't cry."
"Hahaha, I saw my brother. He looked quite energetic, with a five-pointed star on his head."
Yes, the kids are dressed smartly tonight.
Although there is no need to buy performance costumes, it is still possible to unify the colors of the clothes. After all, the colors of the costumes in this era are relatively simple and there are only a few types.
After some statistics, Yu Xiangwan found that everyone was wearing blue shirts and black pants, so they unified the style like this.
The highlight is the red five-pointed star stuck in the center of the children’s foreheads.
At first glance, it is absolutely eye-catching, and it makes the children all lively.
“Poof—”
A trumpet sounded in the background, it was the prelude.
As soon as the audience heard the music, they immediately quieted down.
The prelude lasts about five seconds, and Yu Xiangwan deliberately made such a buffer.
First, it is to let the audience know that the show is about to begin. Second, it is also to tell the children that the show is about to begin.
Afterwards, their chorus was - a cappella.
It's impossible to sing along with the accompaniment, absolutely impossible, it's too difficult.
Yu Xiangwan doesn't want to do such a strenuous task, so why should he make things difficult for himself and the children?
So, a cappella is best.
What is this called? This is called highlighting the simplest and purest singing of children, and there are very good reasons for this!
"The five-star red flag flutters in the wind, and the song of victory is so loud!"
"Sing to our beloved motherland, which will from now on move towards prosperity and strength!"
This was repeated three times, with the singing becoming louder and louder each time.
The children's clear eyes and singing seem to purify the soul.
The song ends.
Yu Xiangwan's eyes were determined as he shouted the slogan: "We are——"
The children shouted loudly: "Children of the motherland!"
"We want—"
"Defend the motherland! Defend the people! Charge, charge, charge!"
