“Mianmian’s parents don’t need to say that. I was just doing my duty as a teacher.”
"Not all teachers can fulfill their duties as teachers. You are remarkable."
Chu Xingyue gave Hua Yu a very positive compliment.
Being sincerely praised by such a beautiful person made Hua Yu's heart pound, even more nervous than when she took the teacher qualification exam and went for the interview.
Hua Yu was unaware of Chu Xingyue's identity; if she had known, she probably wouldn't have been able to utter a word.
Fortunately, Hua Yu doesn't know yet.
"Teacher Huahua, I'll be able to see you again when I go to school." Chu Mianmian's happy words made Hua Yu's expression dim.
"It's okay, Mianmian, just be a happy child. Teacher will be fine." Huayu, who was in a bad mood, didn't notice the meaning behind Chu Mianmian's words.
Even at this moment, Hua Yu didn't forget to comfort little Chu Mianmian.
Before Chu Mianmian could say anything more, Chu Xingyue picked her up.
"Mianmian, your birthday is in a few days. Shall we invite Teacher Huahua to your birthday party?"
Chu Xingyue's suggestion really appealed to Chu Mianmian, and the little girl was even a little shy.
"Teacher Huahua, may I invite you to my birthday party?" Huayu couldn't bear to refuse because of the sincerity in his eyes.
"this……"
Hua Yu hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"Teacher Hua, what the child means is what we mean. On behalf of my whole family, I sincerely invite you to Chu Mianmian's birthday party."
If Hua Yu were to refuse now, she would be being ungrateful.
"Okay, then I'll prepare to participate."
"Xia Yiyang, who is Chu Mianmian's uncle, will be responsible for picking you up and dropping you off."
Chu Xingyue pointed at Xia Yiyang.
"Teacher Huahua, I will contact you in advance."
"Yes, thank you."
In the years that Hua Yu has been a teacher, she has seen all kinds of parents, but not many like Chu Mianmian's parents. Hua Yu usually only sees Chu Mianmian's mother or maternal grandparents. She rarely sees relatives on Chu Mianmian's father's side; she only knows that Chu Mianmian's father is a soldier.
"Then we'll meet there."
"OK."
Hua Yu is still unaware that she will not be leaving the school, but being naive, she doesn't understand the meaning behind Chu Mianmian's words at all.
The following time was spent chatting with Chu Xingyue and the others, along with Chu Mianmian and Hua Yu. In just two or three hours, Hua Yu had been so cunning that the group of shrewd people were practically trying to get her even her bank card PIN.
They chatted so skillfully that Hua Yu didn't notice anything amiss.
With the addition of the clever Chu Mianmian's interruptions, the young people clearly got along very well.
When they came down the mountain, Chu Jiaojiao brought Hua Yu down with her. The group chatted and laughed, making the hardship of going up the mountain and the ease of coming down the mountain come to an end.
It wasn't appropriate to invite Hua Yu to dinner right away when we first met, as that would be too abrupt. So we decided to meet up again on Mianmian's birthday.
"Teacher Huahua, I'm so happy to have met you today, the teacher that Mianmian often talks about at home. Our family is so honored that Mianmian has a teacher like you. Thank you so much!"
"Thank you!" The Chu family members also sincerely thanked Hua Yu.
These words made Hua Yu's nose tingle instantly, and her eyes filled with tears, but she bravely held them back.
Hua Yu sniffed.
"Thank you, it's an honor to meet you all!"
Xia Yiyang offered to take Hua Yu home, and although he wanted to decline, Chu Xingyue stopped him.
Hua Yu had no choice but to give up.
That evening was a big family dinner at the Chu family home. Everyone who could come home returned by the time Chu Xingyue and the others arrived.
Although Gu Yanci has not yet held a wedding with Chu Xingyue, he is now considered the son-in-law of the Chu family and is naturally a member of the family.
Everyone enjoyed dinner, especially the elders in the family. As people get older, they love the sight of their children and grandchildren gathered around them. The youngest, Chu Mianmian, received special attention from everyone. The little girl was also very sweet-talking, keeping the old folks smiling from ear to ear.
Secondly, there are my several brothers in the family who haven't found girlfriends yet.
Instead, Chu Xingyue and Gu Yanci sat comfortably on the sofa, watching the awkward expressions of everyone being pressured to get married.
Chu Xingyue was the one in her family who had the least hope of finding a partner. All the elders had assumed that this matter was left to the country, since she was the country's daughter. Who knew that she would be the first to get engaged?
When you meet the right person at the perfect time, nothing is impossible.
Even the youngest, Xia Yiyang, is now being pressured to get married, and everyone looks helpless and despondent.
"Ms. Mianmian's matter has been resolved. The Education Department directly spoke with the principal. I didn't ask about the specifics of the discussion, but the feedback I received was that the matter was settled."
Gu Yanci held Chu Xingyue's hand in his, and he rubbed the calluses on her hand and whispered something.
"Yes, thank you for your hard work, Comrade Xiao Gu."
"Didn't you always call me Brother Gu? Why don't you call me Brother Gu anymore?" Gu Yanci tightened his grip on her hand.
"Brother Gu." A sweet voice rang in his ear, making Gu Yanci's throat tighten.
Gu Yanci wanted to slap himself right now. Why did so many people have to flirt with the girl? He didn't succeed in flirting with her, and now he's the one being flirted with.
After dinner, those who could go home went back overnight, since they had work the next day. Gu Yanci also said goodbye to the elders of the Chu family.
The two are not married yet, so it would be inappropriate for them to stay overnight. Gu Yanci's upbringing also prevented him from doing so.
"Drive carefully on the road, and let me know when you get home," Chu Xingyue said, bending down to instruct Gu Yanci in the car.
"Okay, bye-bye, keep in touch anytime."
"Let's go." Gu Yanci turned around and went back only after his car was out of sight of Chu Xingyue.
Chu Yunzhi and Chu Nanzhi were waiting for Chu Xingyue in the courtyard. Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but tease her:
"Get married soon so I can enjoy the toast my brother-in-law offers."
Chu Yunzhi, who was standing next to him, nodded in agreement.
"Give me a break, you two single guys are laughing at An'an for having a boyfriend." Chu Jiaojiao scoffed at her two brothers.
One sentence shut the two brothers up.
What to do? I can't win an argument with my sister, but I can't bring myself to hit her.
The two brothers could only shrug and admit they'd made a fool of themselves.
"An'an, we're coming in. What's there to talk about with two bachelors?" As she spoke, she reached out and led Chu Xingyue through the door.
Chu Xingyue followed behind with a smile, but didn't say anything for the two brothers. The brothers were like naughty kids in front of their sister; if you paid attention to them, they would get even more energetic.
The elders in the family all went back to their rooms to rest one after another. Li Muqiu originally wanted to take Chu Mianmian back, but the little girl refused to go back. In the end, Chu Mianmian only stayed after Chu Xingyue spoke up.
"Sister-in-law, Jiaojiao and I will take Mianmian to school tomorrow. You and my brother should go home and rest early."
"Alright." Li Muqiu had complete peace of mind with the two nuns.
"Mianmian, Mommy and Daddy are going home. See you tomorrow!" Li Muqiu squatted down and told her daughter.
"Daddy, Mommy, be careful on the road." The little girl was overjoyed to be with her favorite aunt again.
"Look at your daughter, she's got her aunt now and she doesn't even want us anymore." Chu Qingzhi felt a little sour, as he had wanted to be affectionate with his daughter, but she didn't even care about him.
"Why are you jealous of your sisters?" Li Muqiu, sitting in the car, found her husband's jealous expression extremely amusing.
No one in the family holds a higher place in the little girl's heart than Chu Xingyue, isn't that something everyone knows?
The little girl knew that her aunt and her other aunt would be taking her to school together tomorrow, and the three of them were happy in bed for a long time that night.
It takes more than an hour to get from the Chu residence to the city center, so she has to get up more than an hour earlier than usual in the morning. Fortunately, the little girl has practiced a lot and doesn't have any morning grumpiness. She gets up as soon as Chu Xingyue calls her and puts on her school uniform.
They sat properly at the dining table to eat breakfast, and finally, with Chu Qian and Su Jin reluctant to part, they embarked on their journey to kindergarten.
The little girl chattered away with her aunts along the way, and they were both happy to talk to her.
"Auntie, Auntie, will dropping me off today interfere with your work?" Look at this little girl, how can anyone not love her?
"Don't worry, your aunts won't be back at work until this afternoon, so dropping off Mianmian won't affect anything," Chu Xingyue said affectionately, gently patting the little girl's head.
Will Auntie be able to come back for Mianmian's birthday?
"Auntie isn't sure yet, but she'll try her best to come back and celebrate Mianmian's birthday."
Chu Xingyue really couldn't be sure if she would be held up by other things and unable to come back, and the little girl would definitely be disappointed.
“It’s okay, Auntie. Work is important. Every day with you is Mianmian’s birthday.”
Upon hearing this, Chu Xingyue couldn't help but lean closer to the little girl and pinch her lips.
“Our Mianmian is truly Auntie’s sweet little cotton-padded jacket.”
"Yes, she's my aunt's sweet little cotton-padded jacket, and also my aunt's sweet little cotton-padded jacket." This made Chu Jiaojiao, who was driving in front, laugh.
This girl would never have said such a thing if I wasn't with her right now. Anyway, she's used to it. One is a sister-obsessed person, and the other is an aunt-obsessed person. They're both equally jealous of each other.
Chu Xingyue was practically dying of laughter at this little girl; this adorable little rascal was just too cute to resist.
The car quickly returned to the main road, and soon they would arrive at Chu Mianmian's kindergarten.
This was the first time Chu Xingyue had taken her little girl to school. If Li Muqiu were here, he would have noticed that his daughter was more excited than usual today.
"Auntie, auntie, my kindergarten is just ahead."
The little girl leaned forward so much that she would have climbed right next to Chu Jiaojiao if it weren't for the seatbelt.
"Sit tight, and wait for your aunt to find a place to park the car."
Upon hearing this, the little girl quickly leaned back in her seat, her legs twitching slightly, showing her good mood.
"Alright, we're here!"
Chu Xingyue got out of the car first, followed by Chu Jiaojiao. Chu Mianmian was carried out of the car by Chu Xingyue and stood steadily on the ground. She waited obediently for her aunt Chu Xingyue to close the car door. She held the hands of her aunt and her younger aunt on the left and right, jumping and skipping, making everyone who saw her happy.
"Mianmian".
"Qingqing".
Little Mianmian tugged at Chu Xingyue and Chu Jiaojiao's hands and looked up at the two of them:
"Auntie, Auntie, is my good friend Qingqing."
"Go."
The two sisters let go of the little girl's hands, and then watched as the two little girls hugged each other, laughing and jumping.
Suddenly, one of the little girls stopped what she was doing and looked at Chu Mianmian with a slightly aggrieved expression.
"Mianmian, we won't be able to see Teacher Huahua today."
As soon as the little girl finished speaking, her eyes reddened, and tears fell like little beans.
"Qingqing, don't cry. Teacher Huahua won't leave. My aunt said Teacher Huahua won't leave."
"Really?"
"Really, really. Auntie, are you right?"
Chu Mianmian turned to look at Chu Xingyue.
"Why don't you take your best friend to the kindergarten and see for yourself?"
"Qingqing, these are my eldest aunt and youngest aunt."
This little girl seems to have the opposite personality to their Mianmian. Their Mianmian has never cried since she was little, nor does she like to cry, because she has known since she was little that crying cannot solve any problems.
The young girl burst into tears the moment she saw him.
"Qingqing"
"Mom, I'm greeting Mianmian's aunts."
Chu Xingyue and Chu Jiaojiao noticed that the young woman named Qingqing was very fashionable and gave off the vibe of a business elite.
"Hello, I am Qingqing's mother."
"Hello Qingqing's mom, we are Mianmian's aunts."
He Jing looked at the two beauties with very different styles in front of her. She had never seen such aggressive beauty before. Based on her professional knowledge, these two were definitely natural beauties, and their faces did not show any movement.
Chu Mianmian's mother and maternal grandparents were both teachers. The two girls in front of her were very young. Chu Mianmian's father was a military officer, and these two girls, judging from their posture, were probably also soldiers. The taller girl, in particular, gave off an even stronger aura than her master.
"Mom, Mianmian said that our teacher Huahua won't leave."
Qingqing looked up at He Jing and told her what her best friend had just told her.
"Aunties, have you heard the news that Ms. Hua from the Sunflower Class is leaving?"
“Mianmian told us when she got home that we brought her here today so that we could thank Teacher Hua in person.”
"Since Teacher Huahua didn't leave, we should thank her even more."
"What a coincidence! I've been thanking Teacher Hua Hua all day, and I also want to thank Mianmian. If it weren't for Mianmian standing up for my Qingqing, I don't know how long my Qingqing would have been bullied. My daughter has always been timid and doesn't dare to fight back when things happen. I've tried to teach her at home many times, but she just doesn't dare. I really want to thank your little Mianmian this time."
He Jing sincerely thanked Mianmian, and now she is also thanking Chu Xingyue and Chu Jiaojiao.
"You're welcome, thank you, Qingqing's mom. Mianmian is the first child of our generation, and she's been a bit spoiled at home. She learned some martial arts from us, and since her father is a soldier, it's only right that she stands up for her good friend when she's being bullied." Chu Xingyue's words made He Jing feel very comfortable.
