"It's also the tutor that Grandpa specially found for Linlin."
Mr. Gu's eyes were kind and he looked at the shrinking child with a smile.
My dissatisfaction with my previous tutor deepened.
Look at what she did to the children?
I wasn't very courageous originally.
Now he's like a frightened rabbit.
It's very distressing.
...
Tutor?
This word made the child subconsciously shrink behind his mother.
He reached out and grabbed his mother's clothes.
Keep your head down.
Then, he shook his head.
Obvious resistance.
...
Mr. Gu was stunned.
Um?
What's the meaning?
This kid doesn't want a tutor?
He looked at the child's parents.
...
The child's parents looked at each other, with wry smiles on their faces.
"Linlin doesn't want to find a tutor."
The man spoke.
"That you......"
Gu Lao took a deep breath.
I didn't pay attention just now, and my voice was a little loud.
He did not miss the child's trembling body.
"Then what kind of tutor are you looking for?"
Gu Lao lowered his voice.
There was a bit of dissatisfaction on his face.
...
"Uncle, we can't stop eating because of choking."
The man explained.
Is it possible that because of an accident, you will never find a tutor for your child again?
They also felt distressed when their children were scolded so harshly by their tutors.
But in the final analysis, the child was not injured.
And psychological scars cannot be healed by avoiding them.
"As long as he meets a good tutor later, the child will forget the unhappy memory."
"It is not good?"
...
"yes."
The woman touched the child's head lovingly.
"Cover the bad memories with happy memories."
"I hope that when this child hears the word tutor in the future, what he thinks of is not an unpleasant scolding, but a happy memory."
"I don't want these two words to become a taboo for children."
...
Gu Lao was like a deflated balloon.
His shoulders slumped a little.
His anger goes away as quickly as it comes.
He admitted.
What the child's parents said...makes sense.
yes.
That incident was obviously not the child's fault.
Why should the child live in the shadow of that incident?
Why...
The old man was silent for a while.
Then he slowly said, "Yeah."
"You are right."
"But isn't it too soon?"
"Can......"
Give your children more time.
...
"We are also worried that the longer it takes, the greater the impact of what happened before will be on the children."
The man smiled bitterly.
"Although it is possible that the child will slowly forget about it as time goes by."
The woman's words made the old man close his mouth that was about to open.
"But if it is the first possibility, then the long-term pain is not as good as the short-term pain."
"We hope to help children face that memory as soon as possible."
"So that he can completely get rid of the shadow caused by that incident."
There was some sonorous meaning in the woman's words.
...
"......All right."
Mr. Gu shook his head mockingly, "The old man is old, and he doesn't think as much or as thoughtfully as you young people."
"No, uncle."
The man hurriedly spoke out to comfort the somewhat lost old man, "We know you feel sorry for your child."
"We feel sad too."
"But it hurts, and what needs to be done must still be done."
"Besides..."
The woman looked at the young man who had remained quiet while they were talking, with a slight smile on her face, "This is the tutor you insisted on recommending to us."
"You still don't believe him?"
...
"Of course I believe Xiaoxiao."
Gu Lao's conditioned response.
Then after being stunned for a second, the old man laughed.
yes.
This tutor was specially invited by him.
"Xiaoxiao will definitely get along well with Linlin."
...
"Linlin."
The old man looked at the other child who had remained quiet while they were talking.
"Do you believe Grandpa?"
...
The child slowly raised his head.
Grandpa was very kind to him.
He knows.
I never dislike his clumsiness.
He felt very happy being with his grandpa.
He nodded slightly.
...
Gu Lao's slightly cloudy eyes lit up with a faint light.
"I knew it."
"Grandpa loved Linlin so much before."
"How come Linlin doesn't believe grandpa?"
The old man smiled slightly proudly.
"Then Linlin try to trust this big brother, okay?"
"This eldest brother is grandpa's old friend."
"Does Linlin know what the meaning of year-end friendship is?"
The old man waited patiently for the child's answer.
After a few seconds, the child nodded.
"Linlin is so amazing."
Mr. Gu did not hesitate to praise him, "I even know what it means to have a year-end friendship."
"That's right."
"Big brother is a very good friend of grandpa."
"Grandpa believes that Linlin will like this big brother as long as we get along with him for a while."
"If you still don't like it in the end..."
Gu Lao paused.
Although he thinks this possibility is very low.
He still made a promise, "Grandpa will not find a tutor for Linlin for the time being."
"Let Linlin's parents not find a tutor for Linlin."
This promise suddenly opened the child's eyes.
Really, really?
"of course it's true."
Gu Laodang pretended not to notice the hesitant expressions of the parents of the children next to him, "When has Grandpa ever stopped talking?"
The child tilted his head.
I recalled it carefully.
It seems like...there really isn't.
Grandpa has fulfilled his promise to him every time.
...
"Grandpa has a very good reputation."
Gu Lao laughed.
"So, Linlin, how about getting along with big brother first?"
"This big brother is amazing."
"Ordinary people can't afford such a powerful tutor."
"Next time you tell your classmates that your tutor is a student at Yenching University, they will definitely envy you."
Yenching University?
The child's parents were stunned.
Turns out to be a student of Yenching University?
Suddenly, the way they looked at Xiao Xiao changed.
This is a truly top student.
...
The child blinked.
For the first time, a clear emotion of surprise appeared on his face.
He knows about Yan Da.
Such a famous top university.
Mom and dad also told him.
There was a vague hope that he would be able to attend Yanda University in the future.
Every time he heard his parents talk about Yanda, he was also very excited.
But looking at his exam papers, he felt that Yan being bigger than him was just an unattainable dream.
...
Is this eldest brother actually from Yan University?
Then...if he had this big brother to teach him...would he...
The child pursed his lips...
Is it possible to go to Yanda?
...
The child's eyes fell on Xiao Xiao's face for the first time.
Xiao Xiao smiled at the child.
The child's gaze instantly shifted and his eyes flickered.
But soon, he looked at Xiao Xiao again.
This time, he didn't hide.
...
The adults who noticed the child's actions laughed.
Gu Lao reached out and patted the child's head, "Why don't you come out from behind mom?"
"Say hello to the teacher."
"From now on, you must study hard with the teacher."
