When Sun Mian came back to recognize his relatives this time, the elders gave him red envelopes, and his brothers and sisters of the same generation also prepared gifts for Sun Mian.
Yuan Sihan was heartbroken when she heard that Sun Mian's brother didn't even take a single photo while he was at another home. So this time, she prepared a thick photo album for Sun Mian and put in it the photos of his family she had collected.
And the remaining blank pages will be filled by Brother Sun Mian himself in the future!
Sun Mian took the photo album and began to look through it with great interest. A group of children also came over to look at the photos with him, and at the same time, they talked a lot to Sun Mian about the people in the photos, the scenes when the photos were taken, etc. The scene was very lively.
Among the Sun family's children, besides Sun Qi, who was preparing to follow Sun Aimin on his journey abroad, Sun Yao, the youngest daughter of Sun Aijun, the second brother, also came. She looked at the photos of the Yuan family and thought that next time she would bring all the Sun family photos to give to her younger brother Xiao Mian.
She had been with little Sun Mian for some time before, but this time she specially prepared a gift for him, which was a brand new set of extracurricular reading materials for elementary school students.
Although the Sun family lives in the countryside, they have never slacked off on their children's education. Except for Sun Qi, who graduated from junior high school, the other children are working hard to go to college.
Sun Mian looked at the extracurricular reading materials, his eyes shining with joy. He said to Sun Yao, "Thank you, Sister Yaoyao. I will study hard and learn as many characters as possible so that I can read many more books!"
Zhao Ming, who had received the "Three Good Students" award every year since he started school, saw little Sun Mian holding extracurricular reading materials and smiling so hard that his teeth were showing. He knew that this new brother also loved to study.
He slapped his head, regretting that the gift he prepared was not "what he liked". Oh, if only he had asked his brother what he liked earlier.
However, he had invested heavily this time. He directly took out the first prize medal he won in the city's primary and secondary school students' essay competition and said to Sun Mian, "Brother Xiao Mian, this is your brother's most precious medal. Only students who study hard can get it.
This medal is for you. I hope you can continue to study hard and win a few medals of your own in the future!"
Although Sun Mian was young, he knew how valuable the medal was to Zhao Ming, and he immediately declined, "Brother, I will definitely study hard in the future, but I can't accept the medal, and my parents won't let me!
I watched a competition on TV, and the medal given to the first place winner was this color. My father said that the medal was made of gold and was very valuable.
What is more valuable is not the value of gold, but honor. This medal is your honor, and I will work hard to gain my own honor in the future..."
Sun Mian's words stunned everyone except little Zhang Lin. They thought: Is this something a six-year-old could say? This is too... nice, isn't it?
You know, although Sun Xiaohao is smooth-talking and eloquent, and can say a lot of words to make adults happy, such words would never come out of his mouth.
Each of his long speeches was made with a clear purpose, in order to gain something beneficial for himself.
Compared with the elders of the Sun and Yuan families, children of the same generation seem to have a more intuitive and profound understanding of Sun Xiaohao's nature.
They have all more or less experienced Sun Xiaohao's "powers", who can turn black into white, play the role of an innocent little white rabbit after getting into trouble, and frame other children at the same time.
Sun Xiaohao had long coveted Zhao Ming's golden medal. He knew gold was valuable, and mistakenly thought it was a gold medal. It was precisely because of this that he had always wanted to take Zhao Ming's "gold medal" for himself.
In the past, when we went to play at Aunt Yuan Rui’s house, if we liked Zhao Ming’s toys, Yuan Rui would ask for her son’s consent and let him take them away.
If Sun Xiaohao took Zhao Ming's things without asking, once he was discovered by elders like Yuan Jie and Yuan Rui, they would definitely give Sun Xiaohao a serious lecture to make him understand the principle that "taking without asking is considered stealing."
However, this medal was of great significance to Zhao Ming. Yuan Rui knew how much her son treasured it. Therefore, when Sun Xiao asked for the medal several times, Yuan Rui refused him sternly and gave him a lecture.
When Yuan Jie and Sun Aimin found out that Sun Xiaohao was asking for other people's things again, they criticized and educated him, and told him emotionally and rationally that this medal was a symbol of honor for Zhao Ming, and if he wanted the medal, he had to work hard to prove himself with his strength.
What happened in the end? Sun Xiaohao not only ignored a word, but also secretly took the medal away when no one was paying attention. When Zhao Ming discovered that the medal he had hidden in the cabinet was missing, he first suspected Sun Xiaohao.
Yuan Jie and Sun Aimin questioned Sun Xiaohao, but he denied taking the medal. Finally, Yuan Jie and Sun Aimin searched the house and found the medal in a toy box under Sun Xiaohao's bed.
Sun Xiaohao had to endure some physical pain that time, and he bore a grudge against Zhao Ming. He was constantly trying to make things difficult for Zhao Ming, including tearing up Zhao Ming's award certificate and framing Zhang Sen. This was all due to his resentment from the incident.
A careful comparison shows that Sun Xiaohao has been educated like this by his aunt and uncle for several years, but he still hasn't been able to change his greedy and selfish nature.
But what about little Sun Mian? After only spending about a month with his uncle, he was able to remember his uncle's teachings and implement them. The gap between the two was really too big. Maybe this was just innate?
When Zhang Sen saw Zhao Ming take out the medals that he had been carefully protecting, and thought about what little Sun Mian had just said, he knew that his younger brother was worthy of such a precious gift.
He said, "Little Brother Mian, Brother Ming is willing to give you his most precious medal, which means that he values you as his brother more than the medal. And this medal is not given for free, it comes with conditions, right, Brother Ming?"
Zhao Ming was just worrying about how to convince Sun Mian to accept his gift. Seeing Zhang Sen trying to smooth things over, he quickly said, "Yes, yes, I didn't give you this medal for nothing. You have to promise me to study hard and strive to win the prize."
If you don't get a medal of your own before sixth grade, I'll take this one back!"
Finally, after being persuaded by his brothers and sisters, Sun Mian accepted Zhao Ming's precious medal and carefully put it back into the medal box.
