Fang Qiao understood perfectly.
Because she also had a very serious image at the nursery.
The main problem is that you can't be too casual. Some kids are really unruly; if you joke around with them, they'll take advantage of you.
After the class meeting, the parents were about to leave.
When the parents saw that they were leaving them in this unfamiliar environment, some children who had not attended preschool and went straight to primary school started crying and clung to their parents' hands, unwilling to let go.
Sweetie didn't cry; she even waved goodbye to Fang Qiao.
Before leaving, Fang Qiao said to her, "I'll pick you up after school."
Sweetie shook her head and said, "No need, I've already made a promise with Brother Chen Yan that I'll go home with him after school."
Do you know where his classroom is?
"I don't know. But Brother Chen Yan said he would come to find me during breaks, and he will also come to find me after school."
Sweetie was clear-headed, and considering that Chen Yan had been going to and from school alone for the past six months without any incident, Fang Qiao nodded and agreed: "Okay, then I won't pick you up at noon. You can go home with Chen Yan. Be careful, okay? After school, sit in the classroom and wait. Don't run outside alone until Chen Yan comes to find you, okay?"
Sweetie obediently replied, "I know."
Despite having repeatedly told her to be careful, Fang Qiao was still worried because it was Tian Tian's first day of elementary school. So, she rushed to the school gate just before school ended.
She found a secluded corner and quietly waited, lest Tian Tian discover her and accuse her of breaking her promise as an elder, saying she hadn't come to pick her up but still did!
As the school bell rang, elementary school students carrying their backpacks rushed out of the school gate, their numbers growing from a few scattered to a dense crowd.
Fang Qiao stared intently, afraid of missing something that might catch her eye.
She stared for five or six minutes before finally seeing Tian Tian and Chen Yan appear at the school gate.
Chen Yan took Tian Tian's wrist and led her out with the flow of people.
The two turned into the road leading to their family compound, one after the other. Chen Yan walked more steadily, while Tian Tian skipped and hopped the whole way, looking particularly happy just from behind.
Fang Qiao followed them quietly all the way home before emerging from the shadows.
Fang Qiao followed again in the afternoon and watched as Chen Yan firmly gripped Tian Tian's wrist, like a rider holding the reins tightly to prevent a wild horse from running out of control.
Fang Qiao nodded in satisfaction.
Chen Yan is still very reliable and trustworthy.
Only then did they completely let go, allowing the two children to go to and from school together.
The first week of first grade passed peacefully. At the beginning of the second semester, as soon as Tian Tian came home from her morning classes, she excitedly said to Fang Qiao, "Auntie, shall we go to the zoo this Sunday? I want to go to the zoo to see the tigers and lions!"
"Why did you suddenly decide to go to the zoo?" Fang Qiao asked.
"Because my deskmate Zhang Haotian's parents took him to the zoo yesterday. He said there were several lions and tigers in the zoo, and they were all very majestic! I want to go to the zoo too." Tian Tian shook Fang Qiao's arm and said coquettishly, "Auntie, I've never seen a lion or tiger before, so please say yes, okay?"
Fang Qiao didn't agree immediately, but said reservedly, "It's only Monday today, there are still six days until Sunday, I don't know what the weather will be like then. Let's talk about it later, if the weather is good on the day I'll take you."
She didn't want to be upset if her wish fell through because she couldn't go due to bad weather.
Fang Qiao's words were essentially no different from a direct agreement.
Sweetie immediately cheered, "Yay! Yay! I can go to the zoo to see the tigers!"
Sweetie hugged Fang Qiao's neck warmly and kissed her face several times: "Auntie, I love you to death!"
Fang Qiao chuckled to herself.
Sweetie was looking forward to Sunday, eagerly anticipating her trip to the zoo to see the big cats. But before Sunday arrived, something terrible happened on Thursday night.
Street officials went door-to-door, banging gongs to notify residents to close their doors and windows and not to go out unless absolutely necessary, to avoid personal danger.
because--
A tiger has escaped from the zoo!
