243 I just want to miss you first!
Su Taotao heard the laughter of her own children before she even reached the door of her home.
She recalled the little kids sitting quietly in the classroom, folding paper airplanes. They were so well-behaved and obedient, and also very touching.
He is just as unhappy if he has friends of the same age but on different social networks.
Forget it, the children’s happiness is the most important.
"Hahaha~~ Dongdong~~ You are wrong, you are wrong~~ You are wrong again~~"
Su Taotao pushed the door open and walked in: "What are the kids playing?"
Chenchen tilted his head and looked over, his big eyes curled up: "Mom~~ Welcome home~~"
Dongdong and Mumu were both there, and the other children greeted Su Taotao one by one.
Su Taotao nodded: "Didn't Dongdong go to school in the afternoon?"
Dong Dong nodded and said, "If Chen Chen doesn't go, I won't go either."
Dong Dong sighed and said regretfully, "My mother only promised me that I don't have to go this afternoon, but I still have to go tomorrow.
Aunt Taotao, Chenchen isn't going tomorrow either?"
Su Taotao said: "That depends on Chenchen. If he wants to go, then he can go. If he doesn't want to go, then he can just not go for the time being."
"Alas," Dong Dong sighed again, "Aunt Tao Tao, why are you so good? It would be great if my mother was like you."
Su Taotao touched Dongdong's head and said with a smile, "Your mother is also very good, but Chenchen is still a little young, so it's okay for him to go to school a little later."
"Who is saying bad things about me?" Xia Zhiqiu was chatting with someone on the side of the road when he heard his own son complaining about him.
"Dongdong, do you think your mother is not good? Why do I think you are as good as Chenchen?" Xia Zhiqiu said.
Every child is an independent angel. Avoid comparison.
Dongdong is also very smart, but not as smart as Chenchen. She knows and accepts this fact.
But you can't say that in front of your children.
It's hard to pick out a child as smart as Chenchen.
Su Taotao also smiled and said, "Why do I also think that I am as good as Dongdong's mother?"
Dongdong looked here and there, and finally pouted and said, "That's not what I meant. I just don't want to go to school either. I want to play with Chenchen."
Playing with other kids is not as fun as playing with Chenchen.
Chenchen tilted his head and said, "Dongdong, I will go to school~~ But I won't go every day~~ I will go when I miss you~~"
Dong Dong asked him seriously: "Then can't you think about me every day?"
Chenchen shook his head: "Maybe not. I still have to think about my mom, my dad, my uncle, my grandma, and my grandpa. I can't think about one person every day. I have so many people to think about."
Dong Dong: "..." What about him? Where is he in the queue?
"But I am the one who misses you first. What about me? Where do I rank?" Dongdong couldn't help asking.
Chen Chen still shook his head: "You can't think about me first~~ You have to think about your dad~~ your mom~~ your family~~"
Dong Dong just wouldn't listen: "I just want to miss you first!"
Chenchen spread his hands and sighed: "There's nothing we can do about it~~"
Mumu listened to the conversation between the two little guys and laughed so hard that she couldn't even straighten her back, but Dongdong was about to cry.
Su Taotao and Xia Zhiqiu couldn't help laughing, the kids were really fun.
Mumu touched Dongdong's head and said, "Dongdong, why don't you think of Uncle Mumu first, and Uncle Mumu can also think of you first."
Dong Dong shook his head and said with his neck stiff, "I just want to be the first one, Xiang Chen Chen!"
Su Taotao took out the lychees that Huang Po had forced upon her:
"Okay, okay, Auntie Taotao will reward obedient children with lychees."
"Wow~~"
"Wow……"
The two little ones both exclaimed in support.
Logistics are not well developed these days, and people outside Lingnan can rarely taste this Lingnan delicacy.
Even Xia Zhiqiu has never eaten it.
Among the people here, only Mumu has eaten it, and Su Taotao of this era has never eaten it either.
"The lychee flesh is snow-white, very sweet, fragrant and delicious!" Mumu actually rarely has the chance to eat it, and he can't help swallowing his saliva when talking about it.
Watermelons in summer are cheap and big, refreshing and heat-relief. They are Aunt Zhong’s favorite fruit.
I rarely buy lychees.
Mrs. Huang gave us a handful, which looked like a lot, but the lychees were big and each person couldn't get many.
Chenchen took Dongdong and counted the total number of lychees first, and then counted the number of people. Of course, his beloved father had to be counted as well.
Then he used the multiplication table he had learned and concluded that one person could divide into four.
He raised his head and asked Su Taotao: "Mom, am I right?"
Su Taotao nodded: "Chen Chen is very powerful, you are right."
Then Chenchen started giving four lychees to everyone.
Xia Zhiqiu was completely convinced and secretly gave Su Taotao a thumbs up.
Su Taotao smiled and said nothing.
Fu Zhengtu only taught Chen Chen the multiplication table, and it was Chen Chen who applied what he learned by himself.
When Su Taotao was distributing fried noodles or cakes, she might have said something like "One part is eight, two four is eight, just two pieces for each person."
Chen Chen remembered it and used it to divide the litchi.
The more Dongdong looked at Chenchen, the more he admired her: "Chenchen, you are so amazing. We went to school together, why can't I count?"
Chenchen said: "My dad taught me~~You can also let your dad teach you~~"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll ask my dad to call me when I get home in the evening." Dongdong was very happy to get the lychees given by Chenchen.
The four children gathered together to eat lychees, and Su Taotao asked each of them to drink some salt water to cool down.
On the way home, Dongdong asked Xia Zhiqiu:
"Mom, is it because Chenchen is smarter than me that he doesn't have to go to school every day?"
Don't think that children are young and don't understand anything. In fact, their minds are as clear as mirrors.
"Chenchen is smarter than other kids of the same age, but Dongdong is not bad either. There are not many people as smart as Chenchen." Xia Zhiqiu told the truth.
Dong Dong nodded: "I know, I have always known that Chen Chen is smart. So, mom, how can I become as smart as Chen Chen?"
"This..." Xia Zhiqiu was in a dilemma, "Mom thinks everyone is different, let's take the lychees we just ate for example.
Are there bigger ones, smaller ones, redder ones, greener ones, sweeter ones, sour ones..."
Dongdong held his mother's hand and listened attentively.
Xia Zhiqiu continued, "It's the same with people. Intelligence is Chen Chen's strength, but you have your strengths.
You are stronger than dust, right? You speak more fluently than dust, right?
Chenchen doesn't want to compete with you to see who is stronger or who speaks more fluently, right?"
Dongdong nodded reluctantly and acknowledged this.
Chenchen speaks slowly, not in a hurry at all, and I won’t learn from him.
He just doesn't have much strength and gets tired after walking a few steps. No one has to compete with others to see who is stronger. When he can't walk anymore, he just lets others carry him on their backs and he's very happy.
"But mom, I'm still a little sad that Chenchen didn't miss me as much as the first one."
Xia Zhiqiu said: "Chenchen is still young, it's normal for him to miss his parents. When you were young, did you miss your parents the most?"
Dongdong thought about it and realized that when he was a child, he really missed his mother and wanted to go to work with her every day.
It's not like that here.
"Well, when I was little I missed my mom the most and not my dad that much, but I still want to learn the multiplication table from my dad. Next time I share lychees, I also want to know how many lychees each of us can get!"
Xia Zhiqiu touched Dongdong's head and said with a smile: "You don't need Dad to teach you. Mom can teach you now. One plus one equals one, one plus two equals two..."
Dongdong jumped up and down and followed his mother's chanting: "One plus one equals one, one plus two equals two..."
