Chapter 212 Our village library is famous in the town
Kyoto, Yan family.
The man with frosty white temples has a softer look on his serious and hard lines on his face.
He sat there, looking at the phone that he had hung up, his eyes deep and thoughtful.
"Brother Huai?" Meng Jingxian was opposite him, saw his expression in her eyes, and called softly, hesitantly, "...what are you thinking about?"
She didn't know how she dared to ask this question.
She had never asked this before.
She always listened to what he said and did whatever he said.
I never dared to ask him more about his thoughts, for fear of being troublesome or of annoying him.
Meng Jing gently curled her white fingers. Perhaps she had lost her temper in front of him during this period, breaking her previous gentle image, but he was not displeased, so she emboldened her?
I waited anxiously for a moment, but didn't hear an answer.
Meng Jingxian lowered her eyes, feeling disappointed.
"I'm thinking that maybe I did something wrong before." At this moment, the man's deep voice came.
"Brother Huai?!" Meng Jing raised her head demurely, her fair face showing surprise.
The man looked at her, his deep eyes less sharp, calm and deep, "I used to think that a father should be like a father. A father should be strong, reliable, and strict. I did what I thought.
A strict father, but the distance between him and his children is getting farther and farther, and he is becoming more and more alienated."
"But children grow up day by day. When they are young, they don't understand anything, so they follow orders. When they grow up and have their own thoughts and ideas, what they need is no longer orders, but guidance and equal respect.
."
"Over the years, they have all grown up, and it seems like I am the only one who is still standing still."
There was self-mockery in the man's words.
He still treats his two sons as children in need of discipline.
But the sons have actually reached the age of starting a family and starting a business, and even Ah Chi has become a father.
After laughing at himself, Yan Huai smiled with relief.
"Actually, it's not as difficult as you think to lower your attitude as a father." The man stood up and patted his legs, which were numb from sitting, "I think it's good like this now, what do you think, A-Xian?"
The man has already gone upstairs.
Meng Jingxian was still sitting on the sofa, her body stiff and her expression dull.
A woman in her fifties with flushed ears.
This was also the first time she heard him ask for her opinion in such a tone.
Although he didn't wait for her answer.
Equality...respect?
Meng Jingxian twisted her handkerchief, her face turned red, and then her eyes slowly turned red.
…
Yan Xi held Qi Qi and ran back and forth in the village.
It was getting late, and people on the roadside lit up lights and smoke, and the air was filled with the smell of human fireworks.
Yan Xi seemed to have endless energy, running and jumping with the little baby on her back, spreading her laughter far away.
"Uncle, don't run away. It's time to go home for dinner. My parents will be back soon." Qiqi had no choice but to pull the young man's hair to remind him.
Many children came out to watch the fun on the roadside. The way my uncle was running and jumping... really looked like a gorilla in the zoo.
Qiqi raised her little eyebrows, she was a little gorilla carried on the gorilla's shoulders.
Yan Xi didn't mind the feeling of being in the spotlight at all, and shouted, "Okay, uncle will take you home for dinner!"
"Uncle, you were still crying at home, why are you so happy now?"
"Nonsense, why is uncle crying? You are wrong!"
"You haven't returned my little handkerchief to me yet."
"Qiqi, you are a bad person. Why do you always argue with uncle?"
"Okay, Qiqi was wrong." Qiqi doted on her naughty uncle, "Then why is uncle so happy?"
Yan Xi bumped her steps and bared her big white teeth, "Uncle is happy!"
Qiqi tilted her head and bared her teeth, "Then Qiqi is happy too!"
When Fu Yanchi returned home in the evening, the young man from Erha came out first this time. He stood in front of him with great pride and said, "Fu Yanchi, I will do the work after the new year!"
Fu Yanchi couldn't clear his ears for the next night.
Even when I was sleeping, there was someone next to me that had a demonic voice piercing my brain.
"Fu Yanchi, please come up with a more detailed plan later and show it to me. I am very determined this time!"
"Roll up your sleeves and just do it! This is a man! There are people behind him who know the truth!"
"Hey, Fu Yanchi, the old man didn't tell you this, right? He told me today, hahaha! He said, 'Dad can afford it'! Hahaha!"
Fu Yanchi, "..."
Turn over and sleep.
It's simply childish. Comparing this in front of him?
Are you embarrassed to say that you are a man?
He doesn't care about hitting him.
Lest no one do long-term work for you next year.
The next day, Qiqi helped her mother-in-law finish the housework, picked up a pen and a small notebook, and was about to go to the library to do her homework, when a large follower followed behind her.
It was less than eight o'clock in the morning, and there were already many people sitting in the library.
In the corner, there are little dolls playing on the slide and seesaw. At the desk, there are villagers reading books and absorbing knowledge. There are also monkeys reading books about little people. There are also elementary school students like Qiqi who come here to do their winter vacation homework.
Over at the counter of the agency store, Mr. Fu was reading "Advanced Mathematics" with a small fire cage and reading glasses.
"Qiqi, Qiqi!" Beside the long desk, Goudan, Huazi, and Xiya waved to her in low voices, "Come here quickly!"
Qiqi immediately ran over and asked quietly, "Brother Tiejun, what's going on?"
"How many little red flowers do you have there?"
"There are six of them!"
"Quickly, take it out and let's put it together. We can change a few and start laughing!"
This is a benefit Mr. Fu gave his children after he opened a consignment store.
If you read and do homework in the library for an hour, you can get a small red flower.
Collect little red flowers and you can exchange them for all the products on sale, including pens, notebooks, toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo, etc.
Two small red flowers are exchanged for a White Rabbit toffee, three small red flowers are exchanged for a jelly, five small red flowers are exchanged for an open smile, and six small red flowers are exchanged for a gourd soda.
There are other items that require different amounts of red flowers, and you can redeem them as long as you gather the quantity.
In other words, when you read books in the library, you can not only learn knowledge, but also get small benefits.
It simply stimulates the children and villagers to read and study.
Yan Xi found a book related to business management from the bookshelf. As soon as she sat down, she saw the little kids running to the counter and chattering there to exchange snacks.
The young man raised his eyebrows and looked at the time seriously, calculating how many small red flowers he could get today.
Over there, Qiqi and Goudan were all laughing and already nibbling. The children's faces were filled with happiness and contentment.
"Qiqi, look over there." Tiedan pointed to the corner of the long desk, where several half-year-old children were also sitting. "They are from other villages, and they will probably come here every day from now on."
Hua Zi took a bite and smiled, his voice unclear, "Our Qiqi Library has become famous in the town!"
