Chapter 35 Gifts

After breakfast, Zhou Linglan went to work as usual, and Fu Yuanhang went to school. Usually, if Su Taotao was at home, Chenchen would follow his mother. Su Taotao would go to school with her uncle only when she went to work in the county.

It was rare that both parents were at home today, which was a very fresh experience for Chenchen.

Fu Zhengtu was a very stable person. When he knew that Chenchen was his son, he seemed to have no emotional fluctuations on the surface, but he was still very excited and a little at a loss.

Fortunately, Chenchen was very similar to him when he was a child in terms of personality and appearance, but he was more obedient and smarter than he was when he was a child. He liked this son who came out of nowhere very much.

Recently, Su Taotao began to teach Chenchen. He didn't learn anything very profound. He just read the Three Character Classic and Thousand Character Classic, taught him various graphics, and taught him to recognize colors and Arabic numerals, which are basic knowledge.

However, Chenchen has a good memory and learns things quickly. Children are forgetful and forget what they are taught the moment they turn around. But Chenchen can basically remember everything he is taught, and remember it very firmly. If you ask him again the next day, a few days, or even a month later, he still remembers it very clearly.

Chenchen should be the legendary gifted child. Except that he is still a little slow in learning to speak, his performance in other aspects is very good. For such a child, you must teach him according to his aptitude, otherwise it is easy to bury his talent.

Su Taotao has no experience in raising children. She has been crossing the river by feeling the stones. There is no good educational environment here. She is also worried that she can't teach her child well. If there is a kindergarten in the base, Su Taotao still plans to let him go to school.

Fu Zhengtu is an amazing father. He actually took out a set of military chess and said it was a gift for Chenchen.

Su Taotao suspected that he was lying. Fu Zhengtu didn't prepare a gift for Chenchen at all. It should be that he took it out temporarily to make up the number after she asked him yesterday if he had a gift for Chenchen. This set of military chess was obviously not newly bought. Each chess piece was polished very smoothly. It was obvious that it had been used a lot. She also found Go and chess in his luggage.

However, Su Taotao did not expose him. Chenchen had never seen military chess before, so he was still very happy to receive this novel gift.

It was just that she didn't know what Fu Zhengtu, the father, was thinking about teaching a two-year-old child who didn't even know how to read military chess. It might be easier to teach him Go.

Fu Zhengtu taught his son to recognize the army commander, division commander, brigade commander, regiment commander, platoon leader, and soldier

in a serious manner... Chenchen followed him carefully and recited "jun, si, yu, tuan..." in his unclear pronunciation. The picture was quite heartwarming.

This father was more patient than she thought.

After Fu Zhengtu had taught for a few times and took a break, Su Taotao asked, "Mom really won't go to the base with us?"

Fu Zhengtu shook his head, "She wants to live a quiet life alone for a few years and then go there later. The new school there is good, and I want to take Yuanhang there to go to school."

Fu Zhengtu paused and asked, "I don't spend much time at home. Can you take care of the children alone?"

Fu Zhengtu was good at speaking, and he said this in a very tactful way. It was common for him to stay in the laboratory alone for several days without going home.

Su Taotao can understand Zhou Linglan very well. Even in the 21st century, most of the older generation revolves around their children and grandchildren, and rarely has their own private time. People of this generation believe that having many children means more blessings, and live wholeheartedly for their children. For someone as insightful as Zhou Linglan, the idea of ​​finding time to be alone is still very avant-garde, and many elderly people in the 21st century cannot do it.

If it was another reason, Su Taotao might still persuade her, but for this reason, Su Taotao supports and admires it very much. She also hopes to have her own life when she is old.

Su Taotao touched the child's head, "Since it's mom's wish, let her do it. Xiaohang is very talented in studying. The teachers here can't teach him anything. We should find better educational resources. Chenchen is very well behaved, so we don't have to worry about him. By the way, is there a kindergarten there? It's like the Yuhong class."

Fu Zhengtu shook his head honestly, "I haven't noticed it."

If he knew that there was a two-year-old son waiting for him at home, he might have learned about it in advance.

"It's okay, we'll see when the time comes. I can take care of him, but it's not easy to find a job. It's hard to find a job as easy as a state-owned hotel." To work in the First Hotel as a consultant requires the right time, place and people. This opportunity is once in a lifetime.

Fu Zhengtu looked at her, and the words "If you don't need to work, I can support you" were about to come out of his mouth, but he took them back. His intuition told him that if he said that, she would be angry.

"Yeah." Fu Zhengtu left a word, turned around and went to teach his son the division commander, army commander, brigade commander...

Su Taotao: "..."

Fu Zhengtu was lucky to get married early, otherwise he would be destined to be alone with his ability to talk to death anytime and anywhere.

Even though the two of them had slept together and had a son, they were still not familiar with each other. It was a bit awkward to just sit there and not talk. Chenchen didn't like to talk either, and Fu Yuanhang wasn't a talkative person. These three people together couldn't fill one mouth. Su Taotao could already imagine the embarrassing scene of her chattering alone while the family of four gathered around the table for dinner. It was really a headache just thinking about it.

Su Taotao pinched her chin and looked at Chenchen. No, she had to cultivate Chenchen. The older two couldn't change, but Chenchen still had the potential to be a good conversation starter.

"I'm going to the county town later. Is it okay for you to stay at home with Chenchen?"

Fu Zhengtu and Chenchen looked up at the same time, looking at each other.

After a while, Fu Zhengtu said, "Let's go together. I'll drive you there."

Chenchen nodded vigorously: "Together~~"

Su Taotao: "..." Okay, the son is not familiar with his father either.

Fu Zhengtu gave a temporary "notice" this morning that he would be leaving the day after tomorrow, catching Su Taotao off guard. She had originally planned to go to take over tomorrow, but after thinking about it, she decided to go today to complete the handover, and then go again tomorrow to monitor them to do a brine comparison and insurance.

She left a note for Fu Yuanhang, went back to the room to take her notebook and bag, and then went to the utility room to drag out a large bag of things.

Seeing this, Fu Zhengtu didn't ask anything, but silently stepped forward to help carry it to the car.

Su Taotao felt that there was nothing wrong with Fu Zhengtu's sultry personality, so she didn't waste her breath explaining.

Su Taotao hugged Chenchen and sat in the back seat. Fu Zhengtu didn't say anything, but silently went to the driver's seat to make sure they were seated before slowly starting the car.

Chenchen was more excited and curious than the first time he rode a tractor. Most of the time, he had no expression on his face. Only when he was interested in something or was happy, his eyes would bend and sparkle.

Su Taotao held the little guy on her lap and held him in her arms. She explained the various parts of the car to him along the way. She would grab Chenchen's little fingers with her own hands and point them out, saying that this is the steering wheel, this is the handbrake, this is the glass window, that is the seat belt... She also explained their uses.

The boy often slacked off and only followed her to the last word. When Su Taotao praised him or kissed him, he squinted his eyes happily and applauded himself.

Fu Zhengtu looked at them from the rearview mirror from time to time, and was surprised that Su Taotao's knowledge was broader than he thought. Then he thought that she was an educated youth from a big city, so it was not surprising that she knew a lot.

He agreed with what Zhou Linglan said: She raised Chenchen really well.

She respected Chenchen and treated him as an equal. No matter whether he could understand or not, she would not fool him and would patiently explain things to him.

No matter what questions Chenchen asked her, she would lower her head and answer every question with a patient smile.

Fu Zhengtu curled the corners of his lips. There probably wasn't a child who wouldn't like such a mother.

Fu Zhengtu did not look at himself in the rearview mirror, otherwise he would have been able to see the happiness and satisfaction on his face at this moment.
