"Waa... I don’t want to... don’t want to go to kindergarten... sniff sniff..."
"I want to go ho, I don’t want to go to school, Mama let’s go back, let’s go back..."
"Sniff sniff... I want to go ho... I don’t want to go to kindergarten... I just don’t want to, Mama, why do you have to make go... sniff sniff..."
When one child starts to cry, the entrance of the kindergarten starts to beco a bit noisy.
But when several children start crying and fussing, the gate turns directly into chaos, even sowhat chaotic beyond control.
So children cry so hard they’re gasping for breath, tears and snot flowing together, clutching tightly to their mother’s clothes; so are crying while pulling hard on their mother’s backpack, wiping their tears with little hands, their voices full of endless grievance; so children hold tightly onto their mother’s legs, burying their heads in them, crying heartbrokenly.
Those who don’t know might think there’s a "Baby Crying Contest" happening here, various cries rising one after another, making the parents feel both sorry and helpless...
Of course.
Not all children cry.
So of the older children, and even a small number of the younger ones, didn’t cry when they arrived in the morning.
So parents, seeing the behavior of other children, couldn’t help but feel a bit envious.
But envy is envy.
One must still comfort their own child’s emotions!
Hanghang’s mom gently wipes away her son’s tears with a tissue, speaking softly: "Hanghang, didn’t you promise mom last night? You said you also wanted to co to kindergarten today to eat breakfast. But if you don’t go in now, how will you eat breakfast?"
This question caught Hanghang off guard, gradually stopping his crying.
He wants to eat the food at the kindergarten, but he also doesn’t want to go to school...
What should he do now~
Who will help ~
Oh!
Got it!
His little brain turns, and he looks at his mom with red eyes, speaking tearfully: "Mama, can... can the teacher bring it... bring it to the gate for to eat..."
Ha~
This little guy has quite a few tricks up his sleeve!
You think the teachers have nothing to do and are just there for you?
Bringing you food!
What a lovely dream you’re having!
Upon hearing his son’s proposal, Hanghang’s mom feels no fluctuation in her heart, and even has an urge to laugh.
"The teachers have to take care of so many children, where would they find ti to bring you food? Be good, go inside by yourself, so you can have lunch at the kindergarten at noon."
Jianing happened to co over, heard the conversation between the mother and son, and imdiately joined in with a smile, trying to guide Hanghang: "Hanghang, Miss Xie is telling you, today’s breakfast includes pumpkin cakes, made personally by Uncle Chef Huang. They’re crispy and sweet, sticky and chewy, super delicious. If you co inside with Miss Xie now, we can have breakfast together, okay?"
Hanghang’s mom promptly adds: "Hanghang, didn’t you keep saying yesterday how delicious Uncle Chef Huang’s food is? If you go inside with Miss Xie, you can have the pumpkin cakes he made right away. If you don’t go in, your share might be eaten by other kids!"
What?
If he doesn’t go to kindergarten, his share of snacks will be eaten by other kids?
No, no!
He hasn’t tasted it yet, how can he let other kids eat it?
This absolutely won’t do!
Upon hearing this, Hanghang’s eyes widen in shock, getting anxious!
Little head tilted up, filled with a worried look: "Mama, I want to eat... Uncle Chef Huang’s pumpkin cake, I don’t want... don’t want other kids to eat mine, I don’t want, I don’t want... it’s mine, they can’t eat it la la..."
Hanghang’s mom pretends to be helpless, sighing: "Hanghang, mama really can’t help you with this. If you don’t want to go to kindergarten, your share of the snack might get wasted. To avoid wasting food, the teachers will definitely distribute it to other kids. So, if you want to eat your portion, you should quickly go inside with Miss Xie. This way, no one else can take your snack."
"Hanghang, don’t you think what mama said is right?"
Hanghang blinks, thinks it makes sense, nodding his little head gently.
Seeing Hanghang’s resolve start to waver, Jianing imdiately reaches out to hold his little hand: "Such a good boy, go to the classroom with Miss Xie, then I’ll give you an extra pumpkin cake as a reward, okay?"
This ti, Hanghang didn’t resist holding hands with Jianing.
But he still holds his mom’s hand tightly and speaks with a bit of a babyish tone and a sob: "Mama, don’t leave, okay? Wait here for , and after I eat the pumpkin cake, I’ll go ho with you~"
Hey! This little guy! Dreaming quite big!
Hearing her son’s request, Hanghang’s mom couldn’t help but internally complain about her son.
At the sa ti, she doesn’t forget to remind him: "Hanghang, did you forget? After breakfast at kindergarten, there’s lunch too! Didn’t you keep clamoring last night at ho to eat the braised pork? If you go ho with , won’t you miss the lunch at kindergarten today?"
Thinking of the taste of yesterday’s lunch braised beef, the little guy felt more tempted, nodding vigorously: "I want to eat, I want to eat, Hanghang wants to eat..."
His little look of craving for the braised beef amused the few adults present.
Jianing further reminds: "Hanghang, after lunch, we still have snacks in the afternoon. Didn’t you particularly love the white fungus lotus seed soup at yesterday’s snack? How about you wait until after the snack, then let mom pick you up to go ho, okay?"
Hanghang’s mom and Jianing said one thing after another, successfully coaxing little Hanghang into compliance.
He nods happily as if being a good boy: "Okay!"
"What a good boy!"
Jianing praises him at the right ti, then smiles and instructs: "Let’s say goodbye to mom!"
"Mama bye-bye~"
Hanghang waves his little hand thoughtfully at his mom, then obediently follows Jianing into the kindergarten.
Although successfully sending Hanghang to the classroom, Jianing knows "Food Temptation" is only a temporary asure. After all, relying on coaxing won’t last long; sothing more substantial is needed soon, or else these kids will get restless once again...
So...
When she saw Huang Jun bringing Qingqing and Weiwei to the kindergarten, she imdiately greeted him with a smile: "Qingqing and Weiwei’s dad, let take them to the classroom for you."
"No, no, you go ahead, I’ll take them myself!"
"Co on, Huang Jun’s dad, sending kids to the classroom is my duty as a co-teacher, you don’t have to stand on ceremony..."
Huang Jun notices her peculiar behavior and smiles: "Miss Xie, is there sothing up?"
Jianing hesitates, not knowing how to start: "It’s nothing really!"
Huang Jun teasingly says: "If it’s nothing, then I’ll head in first!"
"There is, there is!"
Jianing quickly stops him, pleading: "Qingqing’s dad, I just wanted to ask if you could make so pumpkin cakes first? Even if it’s just to get the aroma going... it would help calm these kids down."
Is that it!
Huang Jun laughs: "Got it, no problem."
He squats down, speaks to his two little daughters: "Qingqing, Weiwei, you go with Miss Xie to the classroom, daddy will prepare breakfast in the kitchen first, and deliver it to you later."
Qingqing replies in a small voice, "Okay."
It’s clear she doesn’t want to leave her dad!
Weiwei waves her little hand: "Papa, you can go worry-free!"
Huang Jun reaches out to touch their little faces: "Good girls."
He stands up and says to Jianing: "Thanks for helping with this, Miss Xie."
"No need to thank , it’s what I should do..."
Jianing smiles and takes Qingqing and Weiwei’s little hands: "Qingqing, Weiwei, let’s go."
