Chapter 961: Chapter 962: Why Rely on Others? Chapter 961: Chapter 962: Why Rely on Others? Xiao Changyi was folding flowers in the back garden of the mansion.
All four little fellas were following Xiao Changyi, and seeing him folding flowers, they didn’t understand and asked, “Daddy, why are you folding flowers?”
Xiao Changyi, without turning his head, said indifferently, “For your mother.”
Upon hearing it was for their mother, the four little ones imdiately beca excited, exclaiming, “Then we want to fold too! We want to give flowers to Mommy as well!”
Xiao Changyi didn’t stop them; he let the four toddlers shuttle through the flower bushes, folding what they thought were pretty flowers.
“Daddy! Daddy! Scary! Scary!” Suddenly, little An Yiyun scread, looking extrely afraid, and even hid behind Xiao Changyi for a sense of safety.
“Ah, scary!” An Yiqing and Su Yixing also saw what An Yiyun had seen and quickly hid behind Xiao Changyi as well.
Perplexed, Xiao Changyi followed the children’s line of sight and saw a small caterpillar crawling on the ground. He was about to reassure the children that there was nothing to be afraid of, that the insect was not that scary, but before he could speak, little Su Yi Jing strode over with his short legs and stomped the insect dead.
Xiao Changyi: “…”
Xiao Changyi just sighed silently, then took the opportunity to teach the three little ones hiding behind him, “Look at your brother, if you had his courage, you wouldn’t be scared either.”
The three little ones looked at Su Yi Jing with admiration, “Brother is so brave.”
Su Yi Jing ignored his three younger brothers and continued to fold flowers, planning to pick the most beautiful one for his mother.
Turning around, Xiao Changyi bent down and said to the three little ones, “Now you can hide behind Dad and Mom when there’s danger, but what will you do if Dad and Mom are not around? Who will you hide behind then?”
The three little ones imdiately said in unison, “Brother!”
Xiao Changyi: “…”
“Can’t you resolve the danger on your own?” Xiao Changyi spoke again, “Why rely on soone else?” He hoped his children would grow up to be independent. It’s better to rely on oneself than to depend on others.
Su Yixing and An Yiqing said nothing, but An Yiyun was confused, “Dad, Mom, and Brother can protect Yun Er, why can’t Yun Er hide behind you?”
With great patience, Xiao Changyi explained, “It’s not that you can’t hide, but you should see if you can handle the danger yourselves. If you can, why hide?”
An Yiyun looked as if he had not understood.
Su Yixing and An Yiqing also appeared not to have understood.
The children were still young, and these principles were a bit hard for them to grasp now, so Xiao Changyi did not press the matter further and went back to folding flowers.
anwhile, Xiao Changyi sighed inwardly.
Just yesterday, they all said they would grow up to protect him and his wife, but today they had changed their minds again, just like last ti…
It wasn’t just like last ti, it was always like this.
But, couldn’t their thoughts just stay the sa day after day, instead of changing daily…
Children are truly hard to manage.
Xiao Changyi had a deep realization of this fact.
Still, his own Jing’er was good, saving him and his wife a lot of worries.
Involuntarily, Xiao Changyi’s gaze went towards little Su Yi Jing, who was folding flowers not too far away, feeling sowhat comforted.
Once he had finished picking nice flowers, Xiao Changyi led the four little ones back to the main courtyard.
As soon as the four little ones entered the main courtyard, they ran towards An Jing, holding the flowers high for her, “Look, Mommy, flowers, we brought you flowers.”
“For ?” An Jing was sowhat incredulous, but still accepted the flowers handed to her by the four little ones.
