Chapter 26 Weird Kid 26
It is not because we say the world of adults is complicated that they tend to overthink.
As a senior teacher who has worked in a key primary school in the city for many years, Teacher Li is very good at considering issues from the students' perspective.
Seeing the students watching her banging the cymbals, Teacher Li's first reaction was whether this student had any opinion about what happened that day.
Don't underestimate children's psychological problems, as they are sometimes much more complicated than adults think. She has experienced this deeply throughout her career.
The solution to psychological problems always involves communication. Teacher Li, holding her daughter's hand as she finished class, had already quietly decided in her heart that she must pay more attention to this student in the future.
Find time to visit their home after a while. If they have any opinions, they should speak them out. Keeping them in your heart can easily lead to problems.
Yan Xia, who didn't realize that she might get a home visit just because she looked at her head teacher for a second longer, withdrew her gaze after the head teacher left and waited quietly for the teacher to announce the end of get out of class.
Teacher Li, who had scheduled home visits, did not find time to go until before the National Day holiday. Teaching and family matters kept her busy for the entire month.
During this month, Yan Xia took a leave to record the third episode of "72 Hours". After another week or two, the much-anticipated National Day holiday arrived, which lasted for eight days, followed by the Mid-Autumn Festival.
The fourth and fifth episodes of "72 Hours" will be recorded consecutively during this holiday.
On the morning of the departure day, Yan Xia was also happy to receive a cymbal wake-up service at home. After attending a free class in the interest class, he was too lazy to change and just continued to listen. So at the request of the interest class teacher, he got a new pair of cymbals at home.
Although the teacher asked me to buy it so that I can practice more in private, not to use it as an alarm clock.
The recording location for the fourth episode was a large desert in the north, which was quite far away and spanned half the country, so they had to catch a plane early in the morning to gather at the airport in another city, and then fly to their destination together.
---
In the transit airport, the program crew rented a place for recording. In fact, its biggest purpose was to wait for people. Yan Xia and his companion arrived neither too early nor too late. Feng Lele and Yuan Xiao arrived earlier than him. The following groups also said they would arrive soon.
When Yan Xia was led to the place by the staff, he saw at a glance that two of his peers had gap teeth exactly like him, even though their teeth were still fine when they were recording half a month ago.
Yan Xia looked at his little friend with a little more loving eyes.
The naturally optimistic little fat boy didn't understand such looks. He just felt that his friend, whom he hadn't seen for half a month, had acquired a bit of his grandmother's temperament. But it didn't matter. What mattered was that he was waiting for someone to become thinner, and if he didn't eat something, he would become a bolt of lightning in his mother's mouth.
So much so that when Yan Xia just put his suitcase together with everyone else's, the fat boy pulled his arm.
"Yan Xia, are you hungry? I want to buy some food, do you want to come with me?"
Yan Xia looked around and there was nothing to do.
"OK."
The children naturally acted together. Although Yuan Xiao didn't want to eat anything, she still went with them. After more than ten minutes, the three of them brought back a bag of snacks from the convenience store.
As a result, he was intercepted by an adult as soon as he entered the door.
Feng Lele was obviously anxious: "Dad, you are going too far! You promised to let me eat it."
If the adults don’t agree, the children won’t dare to go and buy it.
Feng Jianxian picked through the bag and said, "I just want to see if you bought anything your mother doesn't allow you to eat."
After checking to make sure there was none, he took out a small can and patted it, "Why did you buy this? You are not allowed to take it on the plane if you can't finish it."
Feng Lele reached out and took it, "I want to eat it now."
Feng Jianxian smiled and said, "If you can't open it, Dad will open it for you."
Feng Lele turned around and refused: "No, I know how to open it." Then he ran to an open space and knocked on the floor for a long time, but the lid still didn't move.
"I remember it was like this." The fat boy, who had no idea where he had learned this method, muttered softly as he faced the can that couldn't be opened.
After failing to unscrew it again, he tapped the bottom of the bottle.
Yan Xia sat on a chair nearby, holding a bag of shredded squid and eating it while watching the child with interest. The child's serious look in his eyes showed that he had watched too many short videos about daily life trivia.
I don’t know if it was because his technique was wrong or the short video taught him wrongly, but after struggling for a long time, the little fat boy finally chose to give up. He didn’t want to turn back and ask for help from his old father who had been rejected by him, so he simply turned his attention to his little friend next to him.
"Yan Xia, can you do it?"
Yan Xia stuffed a mouthful of squid into his mouth and reached out to take it, "Let me try."
However, at the moment when the two of them touched each other, the can broke from the bottom with a snap, and the peach syrup inside fell to the ground along with the glass.
Yan Xia held an empty bottle in his hand in silence: “………………”
If he hadn't seen the fat boy looking confused, he would have suspected that he was being scammed.
The end result was that the child didn't get to eat the can and was scolded by Zun Zun. Because there were glass shards in the can, the adults didn't let the child clean up the mess himself.
After an unimportant episode, the rest of the group arrived and boarded the plane which would take more than four hours to fly.
I don’t know if it was the broken cans at the beginning that caused this trip, but it wasn’t smooth from the start. First, we encountered turbulence during lunch time on the plane, which scared everyone on the plane to scream.
Then after getting off the plane, Yan Xia discovered that his suitcase had been taken away by mistake.
It’s not as simple as you took mine and I took yours.
Instead, I took yours, you took his, and he took mine, and we found a piece of luggage and it felt like a bloody triangle plot.
Who would have thought that there would be three identical suitcases in the checked baggage of an airplane? Except for the weight of the suitcases and the labels attached to them, there was no other difference.
By the time the box-finding plot was over, it was more than an hour later than the program crew's expected departure time.
---
Outside the airport, on the program crew's bus, the fourth live broadcast officially began as the bus drove out.
Six groups of people sat together. Although they were tired, the atmosphere in the live broadcast room did not become cold as they chatted with each other.
Yan Xia and Feng Lele sat together, playing rock-paper-scissors out of boredom. The loser had a note stuck on his face.
When the car reached the edge of the desert, Yan Xia expressionlessly tore off the piece of paper on his forehead that could be used as a door curtain.
As expected, his luck on this trip was not very good from the beginning, and there was an ominous atmosphere everywhere.
The place where the fourth episode was recorded was a famous tourist attraction. Their final destination was a homestay built in the desert. The bus obviously couldn’t get in, so the PD let them get off when they drove to the outskirts.
The unique scenery of the Northwest region comes into people's eyes. The surroundings are extremely empty, and there is an endless desert not far away.
Director Shang, who had arrived earlier, sat on a small stool and first introduced the scenic spot to everyone, and then said that they would ride camels to their destination by themselves.
Following Director Shang's instructions, everyone indeed saw a camel caravan not far away. There were about a dozen camels gathered together, all of them were very strong and tall, and the boss standing next to them looked particularly petite.
As they got closer, the presence of its tall body became particularly obvious. It was the kind that could easily reach their knees when it jumped.
"How come they are so tall! Taller than cows!"
"Dad, I'm a little scared~"
"Will I be killed if I fall?"
Several children tilted their heads back and talked in a flurry, their curiosity mixed with excitement and a hint of timidity.
The boss, dressed in distinctive ethnic costumes, smiled kindly and answered the children's questions in a responsive manner, as if they were back in the early childhood education class in kindergarten.
After a while of talking and talking, we finally got to the point of the trip.
Adults and children rode together. There were about ten camels left, and the boss let everyone choose the one they liked.
Yan Xia held his eldest brother's arm, looked around and chose one that looked very handsome, with a clean face, a bit like the prince charming in the camel world, and had an extraordinary temperament.
As the camel stood up, the line of sight suddenly rose higher. Yan Xia leaned against Yan Ji's chest and looked at the endless desert. His mood improved a little.
For safety reasons, each camel had a dedicated person responsible for leading it. Yan Xia and his group were led for several meters, while Yi Lixiao and his son, who were standing behind them, did not move at all.
The camel below was being led with its head raised, grunting and braying like a stubborn donkey.
Yan Xia turned around after hearing the noise, and heard Yi Jingchen's baby voice asking, "Am I too heavy?"
Yi Lixiao hugged the child tightly in his arms and said, "Maybe it's a little uncomfortable." Then he looked down at the boy holding the leash in front of them and said, "How about we change one?"
The young man scratched his head and said, "It's okay to change it. It's like this sometimes. I don't know why. It just stops moving when it's fine."
After saying that, he patted the camel's neck, which was a signal for them to lie down. However, after patting for a long time, the four legs were still standing straight, making it look even more like a stubborn donkey.
Yi Lixiao and the other man just stayed where they were, unable to move forward or come down.
The other groups that had walked a little distance ahead stopped after discovering this, and looked back and asked.
Yan Xia didn't straighten his head and stared at the stubborn donkey... No, after looking at it for a few seconds, Camel called out the translator that he hadn't used for several days.
Then I saw a bunch of... Let him go???
???
Release who??
Yan Xia was confused for a while, and then he realized that when the other party was grunting, it seemed that he was looking towards them, or more specifically, towards him, with his eyes fixed on him.
so……
Yan Xia looked down at the handsome camel below, wondering if they were related in this way? ?
Don't want to tire the camel in your heart, so you hesitate to move forward in protest?
But these two...are both males!!
Yan Xia tentatively asked the leash boy in front of them, "Can I change one?"
The guy doesn’t understand why they have to change it, but since the program crew paid him, of course he can be satisfied with this little thing.
After Yan Xia came down, he took three or two steps forward and replaced another one. Then the camel that had been motionless like a stubborn donkey for a long time really moved, and its steps were even quite fast.
“…………”
Yan Xia looked back speechlessly, feeling inexplicably shown off.
"Dad, why is it moving again?" Yi Jingchen's questioning voice sounded behind him.
Yi Lixiao certainly didn’t know the answer to the question that even the owner of the man didn’t know, so he could only give a vague answer, “Maybe it has come to its senses.”
"Then why was it so upset before?"
Yi Lixiao: “…………”
Good question, he wanted to know too.
Similar conversations like "A Hundred Thousand Whys" are also happening between other fathers and sons.
Yan Xia hummed a little tune while swaying on the camel's back, hiding his achievements and fame. As for the sudden change of rider in front of him, others thought it was just a bored act of a child while waiting, and they did not connect the two things together at all.
The boss still doesn't know that two of his camels have secretly married each other.

By the time we arrived at the B&B, it was just in time for sunset. Compared to the tranquility of the sunset at the seaside, the dusk in the desert added a sense of grandeur.
After a whole day of hard work and admiring the beautiful scenery, everyone was tired. After a rest, we played a few simple games for dinner, chatted about family matters, and then went to sleep.
On the first night in the desert, Yan Xia slept until he woke up naturally. When he opened his eyes, it was dark and the curtains in the room were drawn. Yan Xia thought that his eight-hour sleep setting had failed, so he deliberately checked the time.
It's seven o'clock, it should be dawn.
His mind was still not clear, and Yan Xia subconsciously took off his pajamas and prepared to change into the clothes he took out last night. As a result, when his little arms were halfway raised, he suddenly lost control, and he wrapped the pajamas half on his head and tied the sleeves under his nose.
In a few seconds, only the eyes were left exposed in the little head.
Yan Xia: “…………”
Very good, now he can tell that it is definitely terrible weather outside without even opening the curtains.
I can only say that it’s a good thing he didn’t go to get his socks first, otherwise the Calabash Brothers shape might have scored a second goal.
After the little arm was put down, Yan Xia opened the window with his upper body naked.
I don't know when a sandstorm started outside, and the flying dust was floating in the air, making the visibility in the desert that was vast and boundless yesterday less than five meters.
The program crew had clearly conducted an on-site investigation and found that the weather was good in the past few days, but it changed faster than turning the pages of a book.
After expressing deep sympathy for the program planners, Yan Xia closed the curtains again, without finishing changing her clothes.
Just as the curtains on his side were closed, the door of the room over there was opened a crack from the outside. It was his eldest brother who came back from washing up.
Yan Ji stared at the child's head for two seconds and said, "It's quite unique."
“…………”
Yan Xia silently dismantled the strict weather warning and added, "Pay tribute to the local characteristics."
This kind of dress is part of the local women's headdress.
It’s just that they wrapped it with a gauze scarf.
---
When Yan Xia packed up and went out, two families were already waiting in the activity room of the homestay. The sudden sandstorm disrupted the program team's plans.
There was no explanation on how the subsequent recording would be done, and the director team was still in a meeting, but it looked like we would have to stay indoors the entire day.
The psychological pressure brought by the gloomy weather was quite strong. Even the usually optimistic little fat boy couldn't muster up the energy when facing a room full of fun game props. He looked out the window with a frown.
"Do you think there will be a tornado that will chase us away?"
Yan Xia shook his head: "No."
"How do you know it won't happen? What if a giant tornado comes and kills us..." Before the fat boy could finish his disaster movie fantasy, there was a sudden noise outside.
In addition to the voices of the program staff, there seemed to be the voice of the B&B owner and the shouting of children.
Feng Lele stood up with an extremely agile step, opened the door, and peeked in: "What happened?"
The source of the sound was on the right side of the activity room. Yan Xia followed it and saw that the door of the sheep pen was open, and one of the sheep raised by the owner was missing.
A staff member who stayed at the scene explained that the boss's child was feeding the sheep just now, and a ram hit someone and ran away when he was not paying attention.
It ran into the dust, and the boss and several staff members went to chase it. The child who was hit was fine, but I don’t know if the sheep can be found in this horrible weather where people can’t tell the difference between animals and humans from a distance.
If a person is too far away to be seen, he can still shout to locate him, but if a sheep runs far away, no one will call out, because he really can't find where it is.
Feng Lele sighed after hearing this: "I hope I can find it back."
“So many kebabs.”
It's such a pity to run away.
Staff: “…………”
Yan Xia: “…………”
He is really a foodie.
The guests were unable to help in this situation. When preparing to go back to the house, Yan Xia turned his head and saw that the door of the sheep pen was not closed. He wondered if the boss was so busy chasing the runaway sheep that he forgot about it.
There were several half-grown sheep inside, eager to try out something. Yan Xia went forward and tried to reach out to close the door, but before he reached the position, one of the eager lambs suddenly rushed over at a very fast speed.
The goat rushed forward with the charging skill inherited from his ancestors in the sheepfold. Yan Xia was just about to step back to dodge, but he failed and his leg jumped up on its own and bounced over the goat.
Bumped into a lonely sheep: "???"
The staff preparing to pull people in: “…………”
Live audience: [Really. Goat jumping! ]
After Yan Xia landed, his eyes were also confused.
??? What’s going on?
It's not like he can't dodge it?!
Is the detection in this program wrong? It detects that he is playing goat jumping when he is hiding?
But the dancing in this game is not real!
In just a few seconds, Yan Xia's mind was spinning in eight hundred ways. He suspected that the guy who wrote this paragraph didn't even know what leapfrogging was.
And there is reasonable evidence, because...
The lonely sheep turned back.
Yan Xia jumped back again with an expressionless face.
A few meters away, Feng Lele clapped and cheered: "How cool! I want to play too."
The staff held out Erkang's hand, thinking...
He seems to be having a lot of fun. Should I stop him?
The barrage of 666 in the live broadcast room flew up, indicating that...
Can play.
The goat's boomerang didn't hit anyone, but instead sent itself back to the sheepfold. Yan Xia silently closed the door, refused to participate in the game, and started with myself.
The staff took over the task and bolted the door tightly.
Yan Xia made way and turned to look at his eldest brother, the only person at the scene who could understand him.
Yan Ji raised his eyes slightly, and the same emotion was written in his pupils.
Yan Xia was satisfied, at least there was someone who understood him.
On the way back to the house, the little fat boy had long since come out of the imagined disaster movie and was chattering to express his excitement to people all the way.
In the world of elementary school students, goat jumping is really interesting! ! !
If he could jump that high, he would also like to try it.
The other children who arrived late expressed great regret for missing the wonderful scene.
So they started a fake dance.
After all the dancing was done in a crooked and noisy manner, the directors' meeting was over.
