A mont later.
He softly explained, "Miss Yang, I just... I just saw that Miaomiao’s creamy cornbread was sitting on the plate, and she wasn’t eating it. I was afraid she might waste it, so I took her bread, thinking I would help her finish it..."
So that’s what happened!
Yang Yuxi finally understood that Hanghang didn’t really an to take Miaomiao’s things on purpose. He was being kind-hearted but failed to consider Miaomiao’s feelings and didn’t ask for her permission beforehand, which led to this little unpleasant incident.
Hearing Hanghang’s explanation, Yang Yuxi couldn’t help but breathe a small sigh of relief.
She gently patted Hanghang’s shoulder and spoke to him in a gentle voice, "Hanghang, I know you ant well, but next ti, please ask your friends if they really don’t want to eat sothing before deciding to help, okay? Sotis, kids might just not want to eat right then, or they might want to save it for later. By just taking it without asking, you might make them feel uncomfortable or even upset..."
Miaomiao nodded tearfully, clearly feeling that Yang Yuxi’s words resonated with her.
After listening, Hanghang lowered his head in guilt, realizing that his actions were indeed a bit inappropriate.
Yang Yuxi continued, "Hanghang, you need to rember that sotis our well-intentioned thoughts and actions can unintentionally hurt others. So, before doing anything, think more and consider others’ feelings. Whatever you do in the future, always ask for others’ opinions first, okay?"
Hanghang nodded seriously, "Okay!"
"Mm, admitting your mistakes and correcting them makes you a good child!"
Yang Yuxi smiled approvingly and gently patted Hanghang’s head.
Then, she turned to Miaomiao and smiled, "Miaomiao, look, Hanghang has realized his mistake and promised to be careful in the future. Can you forgive him?"
"Mm..."
Miaomiao hesitated for a mont, then nodded and quietly said, "Okay, I forgive him."
"What a good child."
Yang Yuxi gently stroked Miaomiao’s head and complinted with a smile.
After that, she curiously asked Miaomiao, "Miaomiao, why didn’t you eat that creamy cornbread? Do you not like it?"
Miaomiao shook her little head, her voice slightly aggrieved, "Miss Yang, it’s not that I don’t like it..."
She paused, then said, "I was saving it for my brother to eat."
When she ntioned her brother, a hint of warmth flashed in Miaomiao’s eyes.
Yesterday, her brother brought ho the milk candy that the teacher rewarded him with for her to eat, so she also wanted to share the best-tasting stuff with her brother.
She couldn’t bear to eat it and wanted to save it to take ho for her brother.
But who knew...
Hanghang misunderstood that she didn’t want to eat it, and even took her creamy cornbread because of it.
Thinking about her brother not getting to eat it made her feel sad again.
Yang Yuxi gently praised, "Wow, Miaomiao is such a good child! So young yet you know to share good food with family, really great. Then I will reward you with two more creamy cornbreads!"
Saying that, Yang Yuxi took two creamy cornbreads from Wang Wenxia and put them on her tray.
"Thank you, Miss Yang."
Getting the reward, especially a creamy cornbread reward, made little Miaomiao, who was on the verge of tears, instantly smile, and her mood lifted too.
Aside, Hanghang watched enviously, wishing for such a reward too.
But he understood that his previous behavior was wrong, so it was unlikely he would get such a reward.
Yang Yuxi noticed Hanghang’s disappointed expression and, after thinking for a mont, said, "Hanghang, recognizing your mistake and correcting it just now was very good. As a reward, I’ll give you a creamy cornbread too."
Upon hearing this, Hanghang’s eyes imdiately brightened, "Really, Miss Yang?"
"Of course it’s true!" Yang Yuxi replied with a smile.
"Miss Yang, I also want more creamy cornbread."
Yuanyuan promptly expressed her desire.
"Haven’t you finished eating? Finish it first, then say!" Yang Yuxi gave her a glance and responded.
"I’m not going to eat it all myself, I want to save so for my mommy!"
Yuanyuan explained eagerly. After hearing that Miaomiao wanted to save so cornbread for her brother, she imdiately had the sa thought to save so for her mom.
Unfortunately!
The creamy cornbread in her hand was almost gone, only a small half was left. That’s why she spoke up to ask for more.
However, this action imdiately sparked a little "trend-following wave."
Seeing this, the other kids imitated quickly, all racing to express their desire to take the creamy cornbread ho for their moms, dads, grandpas, and grandmas, even grandpas and grandmas on their mom’s side.
These requests, of course, Yang Yuxi couldn’t fulfill one by one.
After all, there weren’t that many creamy cornbreads left!
After dividing the remaining creamy cornbreads among the children, she candidly told them, "You can decide what to do with the piece of creamy cornbread in your hand; you can choose to eat it yourself or save it for your family."
At first.
The children’s determination was firm.
They all shared a common belief: to take the creamy cornbread ho for their families to taste.
But soon...
They couldn’t resist the temptation.
Take little Miaomiao for example.
At the start, she set aside the creamy cornbread ant for her brother on one side of the plate and never touched it.
She simply focused on enjoying her portion, occasionally sipping so sweet apple and red date soup.
The rich fruit aroma and creamy scent blended perfectly, whetting her appetite.
After finishing her share, Miaomiao couldn’t forget the delicious taste of the creamy cornbread.
She gazed at her brother’s portion of the creamy cornbread, torn in an internal struggle.
She continuously wavered between eating and not eating it.
Finally!
Recalling the scene where her brother shared snacks with her, she made a decision...
To split the creamy cornbread in two!
"This half is for brother, and this half is for ," she whispered to herself.
After splitting it, she couldn’t resist the temptation any longer and enjoyed her half early.
anwhile, Yuanyuan suddenly rembered that besides her mom, she also had a dad and the grandmother who pampered her the most at ho.
So then...
She had to carefully divide her last piece of creamy cornbread into four equal parts: "This is for grandma, this is for mom, this is for dad, and this is mine."
After ensuring every family mber had a part, she realized there was still a little piece left for her to eat, which delighted her.
The soft and sweet creamy cornbread was sothing she never tired of eating!
After eating her share, she looked at the remaining three small pieces of creamy cornbread and couldn’t help but lick the corner of her lips.
She still wanted to eat more!
She recalled how every ti her mom bought small cakes or pastries ho, her dad never even looked at them. Even when she offered them to him, he always refused.
Therefore.
This discovery made her eyes light up: "Oh, right, dad doesn’t like snacks!"
So then...
Very considerately, she helped relieve her dad’s burden by finishing his portion of the creamy cornbread.
