Chapter 524 Children learn about the world through adults’ words and deeds
Duan Hongxuan returned to his small courtyard. He Yuyu and the others were washing the newly bought clothes. When they saw Duan Hongxuan coming back, Xiao Dang ran over happily with his two short legs. Duan Hongxuan quickly squatted down, and Xiao Dang
Smiling, he threw himself into Duan Hongxuan's arms, and Duan Hongxuan picked up the little girl.
The little girl giggled in Duan Hongxuan's arms, "Uncle Xiucai, why did you come back just now? Aunt Yuyu and I just wore new clothes, and you didn't even look at it!"
"Aren't the new clothes pretty? Do you like them, Xiaodang?"
The little girl nodded vigorously: "Yeah! Beautiful, I like it too!"
Duan Hongxuan carried the little girl to the yard and sat under the grape trellis, "Aunt Yuyu and the others have washed the new clothes, so Xiaodang can wear them for her mother tomorrow!
Tomorrow, Xiaodang will wear new clothes and your Aunt Jingru will go to mom and grandma and let them see Xiao Zhang’s new clothes, okay?"
"Yeah! Okay!" When the little girl heard that she would be able to wear new clothes tomorrow and show her mother and the deaf old lady in new clothes, she was so happy!
Duan Hongxuan took out a piece of toffee, peeled it open and fed it into the little girl's mouth. The little girl sipped the sweet and milky toffee in her mouth, smiling happily!
The little girl was eating sweet toffee, sitting in Duan Hongxuan's arms and shaking her short legs, and asked Duan Hongxuan vaguely: "Uncle Xiucai, have you given her the clothes you bought for Huahua?"<
/p>
"Give it, what happened?"
When the little girl heard this, she nodded with satisfaction: "I can wear new clothes with Huahua tomorrow!"
When He Yuyu and the others finished washing their clothes and came out to dry them, they saw Duan Hongxuan sitting on the lounge chair under the grape trellis, and Xiaodang sitting in Duan Hongxuan's arms, eating something in his mouth and shaking his short legs happily!
He Yuyu shouted to Xiaodang: "Xiaodang, what good things are you secretly eating alone?"
The little girl waved her little hand at He Yuyu: "I didn't eat it secretly. It was the toffee that Uncle Xiucai gave me. It's so sweet! Aunt Yuyu, do you want to eat it?
Uncle Xiucai, do you have any more toffee?"
Duan Hongxuan deliberately teased the little girl: "Don't you already have it? Why do you still want it?"
The little girl quickly shook her head: "I don't want it, Aunt Yuyu doesn't have it yet!"
"Xiao Dang, you only think about your Aunt Yuyu. Where is my aunt? I still take care of you every day!"
"Auntie, it's Uncle Xiucai's toffee, I don't have it!" the little girl quickly defended.
"Huh!" Qin Jingru said angrily with a deliberately tigerish face: "Then you don't know how to ask for one for my aunt. You little heartless thing, my aunt's love for you is in vain!"
The little girl quickly turned around and looked at Duan Hongxuan pitifully, "Uncle Xiucai, are there any more toffees?"
"Toffees, how many do you want, Xiaodang?"
The little girl tilted her head, counted on her fingers, raised her head and said: "Two, two toffees!
One for Aunt Yuyu and one for Auntie!"
"You kid, where's mine? Have you forgotten me? Who usually plays with you?"
"Ah?" The little girl looked back at Yu Haitang, and then asked Duan Hongxuan: "Uncle Xiucai, and Aunt Haitang also want one!"
"How many toffees do you want in total now?"
The little girl began to count with her fingers again and muttered in a low voice. After a while, she raised her head and stretched out three white and fat little fingers towards Duan Hongxuan: "Three, Uncle Xiucai, Xiaodang also wants three toffees!<
/p>
One for my aunt, one for Aunt Yuyu, and one for Aunt Haitang, a total of three toffees!"
Duan Hongxuan laughed: "Xiao Dang is really smart. For the sake of Xiao Dang being so smart, Uncle Xiu Cai will reward you with three toffees!"
As he said that, Duan Hongxuan took out three toffees and put them in Xiaodang's hand. The little girl smiled happily: "Hehe! Thank you, Uncle Scholar!
Auntie, Auntie Yuyu, Auntie Begonia, eating toffee is so sweet!
I got the toffee for you!"
He Yuyu and the others came over with smiles and took the toffee handed over by the little girl. They ate the toffee happily and did not forget to praise the little girl!
After the three of them had dried their clothes, they all gathered under the grape trellis. Qin Jingru took the teapot and a few teacups, picked up some peanuts and melon seeds, and washed a few apples before sitting down!
While everyone was basking in the sun, drinking tea and eating snacks and fruits, Qin Jingru said with emotion: "Brother Hongxuan, my life here is more comfortable than that of the old wealthy landlords in our village!"
"How old are you? How have you ever seen a wealthy landlord?" Duan Hongxuan couldn't help but laugh when he saw Qin Jingru sighing like this. "If a wealthy landlord could live like me, then this wealthy landlord would be in such a miserable state."
Click!"
"Poof!"
"Cackle!"
He Yuyu and Yu Haitang were both happy, but Qin Jingru said unconvinced: "I didn't talk nonsense!
Although I have never met the landlord Lao Cai, I have heard it said by the elderly in our village!"
"Oh?" Duan Hongxuan asked curiously: "Then tell me, what kind of life did those wealthy landlords in your village live?"
Qin Jingru said seriously: "I heard from the old people in our village that it turns out that the landlords and wealthy people in our village never have to work in the fields. They have meat to eat every day. It's okay. They can just go around here or there, or just
Tea is brewing in the yard, and there are maids beating their legs!
Not only do you have meat to eat here every day, you don’t have to work in the fields, and now you also have tea, snacks and fruits!
Tell me, are you living like a wealthy landlord?"
He Yuyu and Yu Haitang were made to laugh non-stop by Qin Jingru, and Duan Hongxuan was also happy, "The rich landlords don't have to do any work. I still have to go to school and work in the steel rolling mill!
Besides, I don’t have a maid to beat my legs!”
He Yuyu chuckled, pointed at Qin Jingru and said: "Brother Hongxuan, this is it!
In my opinion, if you really let Jingru beat your legs, Jingru will definitely not object, right Jingru?"
Yu Haitang also smiled and said: "That's right, Jingru, do you want to be a maid to Brother Hongxuan, a wealthy landlord?
Cack!"
Qin Jingru blushed, "Huh! If you work as a maid for Brother Hongxuan, that's okay!
Working as a maid here is better than working in our village every day and getting hungry!
I can eat meat every day here, as well as snacks and fruits. This is much better than the life of our production team leader!"
"Aunt Yuyu, what is a maid?" Xiaodang suddenly asked curiously.
Before He Yuyu could answer, Yu Haitang started teasing the little girl: "Girl, the maid is the little girl who is most loved by the landlords!
Xiaodang, if your scholar uncle is a wealthy landlord, do you want to be his maid?"
When the little girl heard this, she was afraid that others would compete with her, so she quickly replied: "Yes! I want to be a maid for the scholar uncle!"
"Cackle!"
Xiaodang's words immediately amused everyone. He Yuyu smiled and patted Yu Haitang, "What nonsense are you teaching Xiaodang!
Xiaodang, don’t hear Aunt Haitang’s nonsense, we don’t want to be a maid!”
Xiao Dang looked at He Yuyu and then at Duan Hongxuan in confusion, "Aunt Yuyu, isn't it okay to be a maid for the scholar uncle?"
"No, it's not okay to be a maid for anyone!" He Yuyu said seriously.
"But, what if Uncle Xiu Cai doesn't like me anymore but likes the maid?" Xiao Dang asked He Yuyu with a worried look on his face!
Duan Hongxuan also smiled, hugged Xiaodang and said: "Where did your uncle Xiucai get this maid? Don't worry, uncle Xiucai will not dislike our Xiaodang!
Xiaodang is so good and smart, everyone likes her!"
When the little girl heard Duan Hongxuan's words, she immediately felt relieved and smiled happily, "Okay, as long as Uncle Xiucai doesn't dislike me, I won't be a maid!"
He Yuyu said depressedly: "You can't forget the maid, can you? The maid is to serve people, so don't worry about the maid or not!"
Xiaodang said with a smile: "Then I will serve Uncle Xiucai!"
He Yuyu said angrily: "Just a little girl like you, you still want to serve others and you can't even dress yourself. If you don't let us serve you, we will be thankful!
From now on, you are not allowed to mention the word "maid" again, do you hear me?"
"Yeah! Yeah! Remember! Don't mention the maid!" Xiaodang nodded repeatedly!
He Yuyu glared at Yu Haitang fiercely again, "Look at you, what did you teach Xiaodang? If one day this girl says something casually in the courtyard, hum! Just wait for Sister Qin to settle the score with you!<
/p>
And the deaf old lady, look at how the deaf old lady will scold you!"
Yu Haitang clasped his hands together like He Yuyu and begged for mercy: "Yu Yu, I was wrong. I didn't mean it, I just made a joke. I didn't know that this girl Xiaodang would remember it!"
With that said, Yu Haitang quickly asked Duan Hongxuan for help, "Brother Hongxuan, what should I do? Can you help me think of a way, otherwise Sister Qin will be angry with me, and the deaf old lady will be angry too!"
Duan Hongxuan shook his head speechlessly, "You! It's okay for us older ones to make some harmless jokes together, but you must be careful when speaking in front of children!
Children come into contact with and understand the world by observing and imitating the words and deeds of adults.
Sometimes a casual move or word from an adult may be remembered by a child!
So from now on, you have to be careful when speaking and doing things in front of Xiaodang!
Children learn things very quickly. As the saying goes, it is easier to learn badly than to learn well!
Sister Qin gave Xiaodang to us with confidence. We can't let Xiaodang learn some messy things and make people laugh for nothing!
If you really want to teach Xiaodang something, you might as well teach her to memorize multiplication tables!"
Yu Haitang nodded repeatedly: "Yes! I remember Brother Hongxuan!"
Yu Haitang also made an unintentional mistake, Duan Hongxuan said a few words and let it go, "Okay, don't worry, I will leave Xiaodang's affairs to me!"
"Thank you, Brother Hongxuan!" Yu Haitang finally breathed a sigh of relief after thanking Duan Hongxuan, and then went to Qin Jingru to settle the score: "Jingru, it's all you who caused the trouble. You mentioned the maid for nothing, and I almost killed the little girl.
You must be a bad teacher!"
Qin Jingru refused: "This has nothing to do with me. I'm just talking about the old wealthy landlords in our village. It was you who asked Xiaodang to work as a maid for Brother Hongxuan!"
"You...!"
"Okay, okay!" Duan Hongxuan said quickly, "This matter is over, no one is allowed to mention it again!
Okay, you guys just sit here and play, I’m going back to the house to write something!”
