Hearing this, Zheng Laidi retorted angrily, "What pretty sister or pretty younger sister? You brat, if I say someone is a vixen, then she is a vixen. Besides, if I'm not your mother, then who am I?"
With a hint of annoyance, Zheng Laidi tapped her son's forehead, almost losing her temper and giving her precious son a couple of smacks on the bottom.
“You’re not good-looking and you look really old. The kids say you look like my grandma.”
Cui Jiabao said aggrievedly, "From now on, let my dad take me to kindergarten. I don't want to be laughed at by the other kids anymore."
"They're talking nonsense!" Zheng Laidi said sharply, glaring at her son. "You came from my belly, you're my own son, I'm your own mother, and I always will be!"
Gently tugging at her son's ear, Zheng Laidi said, "A son doesn't despise his mother for being ugly. When I was young, I was considered one of the most beautiful girls in the village. If you don't believe me, go back and ask your father to see if I'm lying to you."
I may have a few wrinkles now, but it's all from working so hard for you and those few good-for-nothing girls. You can't be ungrateful and despise your mother!
Cui Jiabao snorted and remained silent, pouting.
"You have a problem with that?"
Zheng Laidi asked.
"I don't want to talk to my ugly mom!"
Cui Jiabao showed no respect to his mother: "My dad is good-looking, and Wuya and I are good-looking too. We look like my dad. Daya, Erya, Sanya, and Siya look like you. You are all ugly monsters. Anyway, this is the last time you're taking me to school. If there's a next time, I'll stay at home and never go to kindergarten!"
"I think you're asking for trouble."
Zheng Laidi made a threat.
"If you dare lay a finger on me, I'll tell my dad, and he'll beat you up!"
Cui Jiabao wasn't afraid at all. He snorted and said, "Today I'm going to kindergarten to make friends with the pretty little girl and her brother. Once the three of us are familiar with each other, I'll go to their house to play with the pretty older sister."
"You dare!"
Zheng Laidi was furious.
"I dare, I dare, hehehe..."
Cui Jiabao made a face, completely ignoring Zheng Laidi's words.
"Sister-in-law, that woman was very rude just now."
The adorable little girl, Xiao Wu, glanced at her sister-in-law and said, "She rolled her eyes at us and spat on the ground. She's filthy. I don't like her."
"...Xiao Liu doesn't like it either."
The little girl chimed in.
Song Lan: "She probably has an eye or throat problem, we don't need to pay attention to her." Song Lan didn't really care about Zheng Laidi's rude behavior, but since the other party dared to cross her bottom line, given Song Lan's personality, she would definitely not let the other party get away with it.
"oh!"
The two little ones nodded their heads in response.
"Hanghang, Xuanxuan, Teacher Li is here, come quickly!"
At the kindergarten gate, a female teacher with two long braids waved to the adorable fifth and sixth graders. Her name is Li Ling, and she is the teacher in charge of teaching the two classes and also their homeroom teacher.
Goodbye, sister-in-law!
The adorable little five and six siblings were released by Song Lan. They waved to their sister-in-law and then walked hand in hand toward Teacher Li.
"Teacher Li! Teacher Li, wait for me!"
When Cui Jiabao saw Teacher Li leading Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu into the kindergarten gate, he quickly pulled his hand out of his mother Zheng Laidi's grasp and ran ahead.
"Son, slow down, slow down! Be careful not to fall!"
Zheng Laidi shouted urgently.
Upon hearing Cui Jiabao's voice, Teacher Li stopped, bent down, and said something to Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu. Then, she let go of their hands and watched the two little ones walk hand in hand into the kindergarten gate.
"Teacher Li!"
Cui Jiabao ran over, panting, and said, "Why did you let Qin Yuhang and Qin Yaxin leave? I ran so fast to catch up with them so we could go into kindergarten together."
Just then, Zheng Laidi arrived in front of Teacher Li. She looked unhappy and said, "Yes, Teacher Li, what's wrong with you?"
"Hello comrade, I'm here waiting for little Cui Jiabao."
Teacher Li responded with a smile.
Unexpectedly, Cui Jiabao felt wronged. He puffed out his cheeks and asked, "Teacher Li, do you not like me?"
"No, the teacher likes every child in the class."
Hearing what Teacher Li said, Cui Jiabao was still unhappy: "Then why did you let Qin Yuhang and Qin Yaxin leave first?"
"If the teachers want to wait for you, let them go to the classroom first. This is for their safety."
Qin Yuhang and Qin Yaxuan are undoubtedly the names of the adorable fifth and sixth graders. Although Cui Jiabao only started kindergarten yesterday, the chubby boy has a good memory and remembered the names of many of his classmates in just one day.
After pursing her lips and sulking for a while, Cui Jiabao said listlessly, "Oh," and then said, "Teacher Li, I'm going to the classroom too."
"Go."
Not far away, more parents brought their children over, so Teacher Li didn't take Cui Jiabao into the kindergarten. However, she did see Cui Jiabao and another child enter the kindergarten gate.
"Comrade, is there anything else?"
After realizing that Zheng Laidi was still there, Teacher Li asked her a question.
"I have something to ask you."
Zheng Laidi said with a gloomy face, "How do your kindergarten teachers teach children?"
"Comrade, I don't understand what you mean."
Teacher Li looked completely bewildered.
"What don't you understand? I was a bit older when I gave birth to my son, so how did I become the grandma of my son in the eyes of your kindergarten kids? Let me tell you, it's your responsibility as teachers that those kids don't behave well. I can let it go this time, but if there's a next time, I'll never forgive your kindergarten!"
She made a harsh statement—well, that was just Zheng Laidi's opinion—but anyway, she fell silent, glared fiercely at Teacher Li, and then left muttering curses.
You're blocking my way.
Song Lan was walking along the roadside when she suddenly heard Zheng Laidi's voice behind her, which almost made her laugh in exasperation.
Blocking the way?
She was walking in front, and the other person was walking behind. She was walking along the side of the road, so how was she blocking the other person's way? Song Lan stopped, glanced back at the other person, and said calmly, "This road is not narrow, and I am walking in front of you on the side of the road. It's not like I'm blocking your way, comrade."
As soon as the sound faded, she continued on her way.
Zheng Laidi felt her face burning, as if she had been slapped hard.
Why do you look so pale? Did something happen?
The speaker was a woman named Ma Fenglan who had been watching Zheng Laidi's antics outside Song Lan's courtyard. She was walking towards them with her granddaughter when she saw Zheng Laidi standing by the roadside, performing a dramatic face-changing act like a Sichuan opera mask-changer.
"What's it to you?"
Zheng Laidi snapped out of her daze and glared at Ma Fenglan: "You're always thinking about making a fool of yourself, but you're going to be disappointed this time!"
Ma Fenglan was seven or eight years older than Zheng Laidi. In their early years, since they were both women from the countryside and their villages were adjacent, they were quite close. However, after a while, Ma Fenglan found that Zheng Laidi could not distinguish between Ma and Ming, so she gradually reduced her contact with Zheng Laidi. In the past year or so, they had hardly spoken to each other properly.
