On the fourth day of joining the group chat, Zizi realized that her typing speed was not as fast as others. Other friends had spoken more than ten sentences before she had even finished typing her own.
At the same time, the clever cub discovered that these older brothers and sisters never finished speaking at once. They always liked to break a sentence into several parts, without punctuation, and spout out one segment at a time.
The baby frowned, somewhat puzzled.
Is that why they type fast?
The cub seemed to be lost in thought.
Because he was slow at typing, Zaizai temporarily lost the motivation to join the group chat and stopped chatting. Instead, he lay on the small table, swiping the screen with his chubby fingers, occasionally clicking and looking here and there.
Nanny Xiaole came over to accompany Zizi and saw her lying on the small table. She smiled and reminded her: "Xixi, you can't lie on the table to read things. It's bad for your eyes."
Hearing this, Yu Xi said "Oh", then sat down obediently and stopped lying on the table playing with her phone.
The nanny was warned by the two elderly people and the employer not to let Yu Xi play with her mobile phone all the time.
She took out a picture book from the cabinet and asked Zizi if he wanted to read.
Frustrated by the typing speed, Zizi lost interest and didn't want to chat or read. She just wanted to find a way to type quickly.
When the baby heard the nanny say that these picture books were bought for her by her mother and were brand new and she had never read them before, she became a little interested and quickly said that she could read the books now.
Zizi said: "Okay, then I'll watch for a while."
The voice was childish and contained a reluctant tone, but the pair of round eyes were wide open, staring at the picture book in the nanny's hand without blinking.
Even the cub couldn't help but stretch out its chubby little hands, ready to take those cute picture books.
Seeing that Zizi was actually impatient despite saying one thing and thinking another, Xiaole couldn't help but laugh. She put the picture books aside and took out two new ones and handed them to Zizi.
Zizi took the two new picture books. Thinking that these were bought for him by his mother, he felt very happy. Without thinking too much, he opened the picture books and started reading.
Nanny Xiaole saw that the baby was so engrossed in reading that he didn't need her company at all. She felt a little bored, so she picked up her phone and chatted with others.
She kept switching between Penguin and WeChat apps, and looked up from time to time to see what her baby was doing.
The picture book doesn’t have many pages. In less than half an hour, Zizi finished one and was ready to start the second one.
When she closed the first picture book and was about to put it aside, she raised her little head and saw the nanny next to her typing quickly.
The movements of his fingertips were as graceful as a startled swan and as elegant as a swimming dragon, so smooth and flowing!
Yu Xi was stunned.
Nanny Xiaole noticed Zizi's gaze. After typing two words, she looked up at Zizi and asked with a smile, "Xixi, have you finished reading? Do you want to go to the living room and have some fruit with grandpa and grandma?"
She smiled and said, "Today we have Xixi's favorite peaches and strawberries."
When Zaizai heard the words "peach" and "strawberry", his eyes lit up immediately.
However, she has more important things on her mind right now, so she put the peaches and strawberries aside!
Yu Xi looked at the phone in the nanny's hand, and Xiao Le suddenly realized that he had been caught slacking off at work. Just as he was about to put the phone back in his pocket, he heard Zi Zi say, "Sister, you type so fast!"
Xiaole had a smile on his face, but he felt a little embarrassed.
It's over. If Xixi tells this to the old man or her boss, won't she be caught slacking off at work?
She tried to change the subject.
Xiaole: "Xixi, do you want to..."
The cub looked at the nanny eagerly with a pair of sparkling eyes, "Sister, can you teach me?"
Xiaole was stunned for a moment, "Huh?"
Zizi noticed that the nanny didn't seem to want to teach her the secret of fast typing, and she suddenly had an idea.
The next second, her soft and cute face showed a lonely and aggrieved expression. She looked extremely sad, and even the tone of her voice was full of sadness.
Zizi said: "Sister, my mother is very busy at work! She doesn't even have time to video chat with me!"
Xiaole is a nanny hired by Yu Tangxing to take care of the baby and two elderly people in the Yu family. She knows her employer well and of course knows that she is very busy at work.
However, even though Yu Tangxing is very busy, he still finds time to video chat with his daughter every night.
Seeing Zizi's dejected look, Xiaole quickly comforted her: "How could that be? Mommy will definitely have time to video chat with Xixi. When Mommy gets off work, she will definitely call Xixi back."
Zizi ignored me and continued to hold back his feelings of grievance and sadness, saying, "If I could type, I could send a message to my mother."
"When my mom sees it, she can reply. She no longer has to wait until she gets off work to video chat!"
Xiaole vaguely felt that there was something wrong with the logic, and was about to explain it to Zizi in detail, but Zizi started hugging her and acting coquettishly.
Zizi: "Sister, just teach me, okay~~"
Xiaole: “…………”
Zizi: "Sister, you type so fast! I want to learn. If I learn, I can type as fast as you!"
Zizi: "Okay, okay~~"
Suddenly, the words Xiaole wanted to say were stuck in his throat and he couldn't say anything.
As human cubs, cuteness is their advantage, and "looking cute" is invincible. Who can resist the coquettishness of a cub that is so well-behaved, sweet, and as soft as marshmallow?
No! No! People!
Except for mom and grandpa.
Xiaole couldn't resist Zizi's coquettishness and patiently said to Zizi, "I type using pinyin. It's faster than handwriting and more accurate."
Xiaole: "Xixi, do you know pinyin? That's what the kindergarten teacher taught us, like 'ah oh, uh eh, wu yu'."
Zizi suddenly understood.
It turns out that my sister types so fast because she uses pinyin!
It turns out that the “ah oh er yi wu yu” taught by kindergarten teachers are pinyin!
She nodded her head towards the nanny and answered in a cute little voice, "I know! Teacher Xiaohua taught us pinyin!"
Zaizai then asked how to input using pinyin.
Xiaole taught her patiently.
Perhaps because of her great motivation to learn, Zaizai learned the "pinyin" input as soon as she saw the nanny's demonstration; not only that, Zaizai also asked the nanny to teach her pinyin.
Why does the nanny need to teach pinyin?
It’s not that Zaizai doesn’t know pinyin, it’s just that Zaizai can’t remember all the initials and finals at the moment!
There are 26 letters in the English alphabet, and my son can read them all haltingly, but there are 63 Chinese pinyin letters, which is 37 more than the English alphabet!
She is just a four-year-old kid, how can she remember everything?
In order to better learn and remember these pinyin, Zaizai asked the nanny to find the pinyin picture book that her mother had bought for her before, and learned pinyin according to the picture book. When she encountered something she didn't know or couldn't remember, she would take the picture book to find her grandparents and the nanny.
For several days in a row, Zaizai carried the pinyin picture book with him. It is no exaggeration to say that he "forgot to eat and sleep".
Well, the baby still remembers to eat his meals, drink his soup, and have fruit snacks, and he still goes to bed before 10 o'clock every night.
How can we forget important things like eating and sleeping?
If there is something I really forgot, it is.
Yu Xi hasn't had a video call or phone call with her mother for several days, let alone a message. She is working hard every day to transition from handwriting input to pinyin input.
…
Yu Tangxing hasn't received a call from her daughter for several days.
There was a time when Yu Xi would call her every day and they would talk for half an hour whether there was something or not. Later, when she went to kindergarten and had her own interests and hobbies, the call went from every day to once every two days, once every three days, and once every few days.
However, the interval will not exceed five days.
Sometimes Yu Xi doesn't call her, so Yu Tangxing will call her daughter or mother when she gets home from get off work; if it is too late and she is worried about disturbing her daughter and the two elderly people's rest, she will also call the nanny to ask about the latest situation.
That day, Yu Tangxing didn't work overtime too late, so he got home quite early, but he had no appetite.
Lying on the sofa playing with my phone, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't called my daughter in the past few days, and I felt a little empty inside.
She flipped through WeChat to see if she had forgotten to reply to Xixi's message.
Otherwise, why didn't Xixi call her?
This shouldn't be!
Yu Tangxing saw that the chat history between her and her daughter stopped at the video call four days ago. After the video call ended, she sent a voice message to Xixi saying "good night".
Xixi also sent her a voice message saying "good night".
Apart from this, until now, the two have not sent messages to each other, nor have they made video calls or voice calls.
Yu Tangxing: “…………”
Didn’t you say you would video call me every day after you bought me a phone?
Little liar!
She was a little unhappy.
It's still early. At home, this time should be after dinner and before going to bed. Calling them now will not delay their meal or disturb their sleep.
Yu Tangxing didn't think too much and made a video call to his daughter.
After a while, the little guy over there answered the video call. A soft and cute face almost occupied the entire phone screen. It was vaguely visible that the little guy was in the toy room where he usually read and played.
Seeing such a lovely baby daughter, Yu Tangxing's heart, which was tired and bored from work, was instantly soothed a lot.
She couldn't help but smile, her voice a little hoarse as she asked, "Xixi, have you eaten yet? What did you eat tonight?"
Yu Xi was very happy to see her mother video call her, and she couldn't help but smile widely, "Mom, I'm full!"
She counted on her fingers, "We had sweet and sour pork ribs, pearl glutinous rice meatballs, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, minced meat and tofu tonight..."
"Yeah, and greens!"
Although grandpa ordered the baby to eat the vegetables with a stern face, the baby did eat the vegetables!
The baby is not picky about food and doesn’t eat vegetables!
The baby felt that he was great and awesome for eating vegetables tonight, and couldn't help but straighten his chest, waiting for his mother's praise!
However--
Yu Tangxing smiled and said, "Oh, then does Xixi have to wait for Grandpa to tell her to eat the vegetables?"
Yu Xi: “…………”
Yu Xi was silent and didn't want to talk.
Yu Tangxing found it funny to see his daughter like this.
In fact, the smile on her face did get bigger, and her eyes curved into fat crescents.
When he didn't hear his daughter's answer, Yu Tangxing changed the subject and asked gently, "Xixi, are you reading? What book are you reading?"
After hearing his mother's question, Zaizai found a point that made his mother praise him!
When buying a mobile phone, grandma also bought a mobile phone holder for Zaizai, so that Zaizai can put the phone on the holder when video chatting with his mother, without having to hold it in his hands.
Now, the phone is placed on the stand.
Zizi picked up the pinyin picture book on the table with both hands and faced the cover of the picture book to the camera of the mobile phone.
She said, "Mom, I'm reading a book and learning pinyin!"
She is learning pinyin. She is a hardworking and studious girl!
Mom quickly said: Baby is awesome!!
Yu Tangxing looked at the cover of the picture book, then at her daughter's smug face, and couldn't help laughing out loud.
Yu Tangxing: "But, honey, you're holding the book upside down."
Yu Xi: “……………………”
