Cheng Cheng's storytelling competition was on Friday afternoon. Zhang Tan was invited to participate, and he also brought Xiaobai, Xiaomi and Xi'er from the same kindergarten.
Surprisingly, little Yingzi Xie Ying also came. She came earlier than Zhang Tan and the others, and was already talking to Cheng Cheng. Cheng Cheng seemed much calmer, and there were three little ones cheering her on. She was brave.
Much more.
"Teacher Zhang, I heard that you are here. Welcome. I am the principal of the kindergarten..."
Not long after Zhang Tan arrived, a middle-aged man who claimed to be the director of the garden came over and warmly welcomed him.
Zhang Tan told him that he was here for Cheng Cheng and that he and Cheng Cheng were partners.
Cheng Cheng is the fifth speaker. All the stories told in the first four have been heard before. When it comes to Cheng Cheng’s Little Red Riding Hood, this new story immediately attracted the interest of teachers and children. This story is not only new, but also full of ups and downs and exciting.
It is very immersive and can easily make the audience feel anxious along with the adventure of Little Red Riding Hood.
Not surprisingly, her speech received applause from the audience, and the children clapped and chattered about this new character, Little Red Riding Hood.
"Where did Little Red Riding Hood come from?" a child asked.
Cheng Cheng was stunned, and then whispered that it was Little Red Riding Hood from Little Red Horse. Then, regardless of whether everyone understood it or not, he came down the stage to find Xiaobai and the others. When they saw Xiaobai, they all praised her and jumped up and down a few times.
At 4:30 in the afternoon, all the speeches were over. Cheng Cheng's father, Meng Guangxin, persuaded everyone to stay and invited everyone to have dinner together. They made an appointment at a children's restaurant on the edge of West Chang'an Street. It was close to the Little Red Horse and it was convenient for the children to study after eating.
garden.
The journey is not far, just two subway stops away, but it takes a while to walk, especially the children can’t walk so far, so we all took the subway together.
"Xiao Yingzi, did you come alone?" Zhang Tan asked Xie Ying. When he came, Xiao Yingzi had already arrived. During this period, he did not see her parents. She was the only one in the kindergarten.
"My mother sent me here." Xiao Yingzi said.
"What about your mother? Has she gone to work?"
Xiao Yingzi said yes, she wanted to leave.
Zhang Tan: "Don't leave, come with us to dinner. Thanks to you cheering Cheng Cheng up, Cheng Cheng was able to perform so well without being nervous."
Cheng Cheng held on to her clothes. Although he didn't say anything, his intention was very clear and he wouldn't let her go.
Xiao Yingzi often praised Cheng Cheng for telling stories, and even learned from her. During that time, she would find Cheng Cheng every night and ask her for advice on how to tell stories, because she also wanted to participate in a storytelling competition.
The two became good friends. Today, Cheng Cheng participated in a storytelling competition. Xiao Yingzi came to support her alone. She was worried that she would be nervous, so she cheered and enlightened her as soon as she arrived.
Xiao Yingzi finally agreed to stay for dinner, and a group of people entered the subway station. It was not yet the rush hour, so the flow of people was relatively small, but in half an hour, the flow of people would increase dramatically.
"Where's Xiao Yingzi?" While waiting for the subway at the platform, Zhang Tan felt that a child was missing. When he looked carefully, Xiao Yingzi was missing.
"hiahia, there she is." Xi'er's sharp eyes saw Xiao Yingzi not far away, talking to a woman wearing a subway uniform.
"Xiao Yingzi~~Don't go too far, come here quickly."
Zhang Tan waved, and Xiao Yingzi turned back and smiled at him, continuing to talk to the person in front of him. After a while, the two of them came over together.
Xiaomi told Xiaoyingzi not to run around, as he would not be able to find it if he lost it. Immediately, her eyes fell on the hands held by Xiaoyingzi and the aunt in front of her, and she was filled with curiosity.
"What is this?" Zhang Tan asked doubtfully.
"This is my mother." Xiao Yingzi said, "Mom, he is Boss Zhang, he is a good person, this is Cheng Cheng, she is very good at telling stories, this is Xiaobai, she is very helpful, and this is Xi'er, she
I really like to laugh and am very happy every day. This is Xiaomi. Xiaomi’s sister is a policeman. She will also be a policeman in the future. She is really awesome."
Xiao Yingzi's introduction made the children all raise their heads and chests, looking very proud. At the same time, they looked at Xiao Yingzi's mother curiously.
"Hello, Boss Zhang, thank you for taking care of Xiao Yingzi..." Xiao Yingzi's mother said.
She is a very elegant woman and very beautiful. Like Xiao Yingzi, she has a pair of big melancholy eyes. Zhang Tan has seen her several times before, but each time it was at night and he never looked at her carefully. Moreover, this
This was the first time I saw her wearing a work uniform, and it was a big change.
This was the first time Zhang Tan knew that Xiao Yingzi's mother was a subway worker, or to be precise, a station attendant.
It doesn't look like it.
If it is said that Xiaoyingzi's mother is an entrepreneur, Zhang Tan is more willing to believe it.
During the work, everyone just chatted briefly, and soon she went to work.
Xiaobai was curious, and kept following Xiaoyingzi's mother who was working far away. From time to time, he would look sideways at Xiaoyingzi, and then at Zhang Tan. He wanted to say something, but didn't know how to say it, and finally turned it into one sentence:
"Your mother is so good."
Xiao Yingzi was dumbfounded. How could her mother be associated with being good? Zhang Tan explained to her that being good in Xiao Bai did not mean being obedient, but that she was good-looking and beautiful.
Xi'er and Xiaomi also nodded repeatedly. They were both envious of Xiao Yingzi's mother. Xi'er even bluntly said that she wanted Xiao Yingzi's mother.
Every mother is beautiful, but the angle of beauty is different.
Xiaomi looked sad. When she saw Xiaoyingzi's mother, she thought of her own mother. She almost forgot what her mother looked like. When she got home, she wanted to see her mother's photos and try to remember them in her mind.
Meng Guangxin invited everyone to have dinner at the children's restaurant. He especially apologized to Zhang Tan because the first time he had dinner with Boss Zhang was in a children's restaurant.
Zhang Tan has nothing to do with it, the main thing is that the children are happy eating.
Because I met Xiao Yingzi's mother by chance, I paid special attention to Xiao Yingzi that night. At 10 o'clock in the evening, when the children were going to bed, Xiao Yingzi packed up her things, put two books in her bag, said goodbye to Jiang Bin, and
Xiaobai said goodbye to Cheng Cheng, she was going home.
However, her parents did not come to pick her up. She went home by herself.
Zhang Tan was a little worried, but I heard from Teacher Xiaoliu that Xiaoyingzi had been like this for a long time. As soon as ten o'clock in the evening, she packed up her things and went home, and nothing happened.
Xiaobai and Jiang Bin, who were not sleeping, escorted Xiao Yingzi out of the classroom, crossed the yard, and came to the outside of the little red horse. They watched her walk to West Chang'an Street and completely disappear before their eyes.
"Don't worry about Xiao Yingzi, she is a very sensible child. Her mother works on the subway, so she can give her a ride." Lao Li said, and then played with his tea set.
Zhang Tan sat opposite him and asked, "Old Li, what do you know?"
Lao Li poured him a cup of hot tea and glanced at Xiaobai, who was squatting in front of his radio listening to the radio after delivering Xiaoyingzi. He was relieved to see that she didn't stuff mulberry leaves into his teapot and didn't have any in her hand.
"Her mother used to live in Huangjia Village. Of course I know her. It can be said that I watched her grow up."
"No, why am I not impressed?"
"She got married when she was very young, and her relatives in Huangjia Village also passed away early, so she doesn't come very often. It's normal for you to pay homage during festivals and festivals. It's normal for you not to have any impression."
