The elders felt sorry for the children. Seeing that Cheng Tianyuan's training was a bit excessive, they hurriedly joined in and acted as peacemakers.
"Okay, okay, the children already know that they are wrong, let's forget it."
"After this, I will pay attention to it in the future."
"We are all still children at heart, and sometimes we don't think things through carefully. As adults and old people, we may not be able to do everything perfectly, let alone the children who are only teenagers!"
"Yes, yes! The child has realized his mistake and will correct it in the future."
Seeing that the old people were talking like this, Xue Ling didn't want to interfere any more, so he said: "Okay, okay! Everyone go back to the room, wash your face and drink some hot water. We will go out to eat hot pot in ten minutes."
"good."
"Yes, Mom."
The four children fled like birds and beasts and hid in their rooms.
Xue Zhilan smiled fondly and said: "Although winter melon is big, it is still a vegetable. Don't look at a person who looks tall and big, but he is actually only a teenager."
"Of course you are already twenty." Cheng Tianyuan reminded.
"It's still the nature of a child." Xue's father said warmly: "Children, let's teach them slowly. It's impossible for people not to make mistakes. If you know your mistakes and can correct them, and you can correct them in time, you are already pretty good."
Xue's mother echoed: "When he sees something fun, he just plays with it, and sometimes he doesn't take care of his younger siblings. When he gets older, he will be more considerate."
Cheng Tianyuan sighed softly and said: "They are all boys, but Xiaoxin is a girl and the youngest - they think and do things with men's logical thinking. It is inevitable that they will be too careless and ignore their sister. Xiaoxin still needs their help
Protection. What happened today, I have to take the opportunity to teach them a lesson so that they will remember it for a long time."
"Yes." Xue Ling shrugged: "But don't go too far. Brothers do need to protect and take care of their sister, but she also needs to be able to be independent. When you have time, you have to teach Xiaoxin how to do things outside.
How to protect yourself.”
People are independent individuals and cannot live dependent on others all their lives. It is better to teach her to fish than to teach her to fish. Instead of protecting her and letting her relatives around her protect her, it is better to let her learn to protect herself.
The daughter looks like her and him, almost taking advantage of the two of them.
Although she is only twelve years old, her height is already comparable to that of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl. Not to mention her appearance, you can tell at a young age that she will be a great beauty in the future.
Your child is growing up so well. As a parent, while you are happy and happy, you will inevitably also be a little worried.
If you look too attractive, you will definitely have more troubles. Especially in today's society, transportation and communication are extremely convenient. In an international metropolis like the Imperial Capital, there are really many people with mixed voices.
As the environment becomes more and more complex, children should be educated better so that they are more aware of dangers, especially girls.
Cheng Tianyuan was slightly embarrassed, with a hint of displeasure in his tone.
"You must teach her, but she is only twelve years old, still a half-grown child. Her brothers have not taken good care of her, so I have to teach her a lesson first."
Xue Ling glanced at him, but smiled and said nothing.
Rare things are more valuable, and the same applies to people. There are three boys in the family, and one is just a cute little girl. Naturally, she gets more attention and love.
Cheng Tianyuan refused to admit it, but in fact he preferred his younger daughter.
As a pillow person, how could she not know!
Forget it, it’s not good to defend him in front of the elders, it’s better to find an opportunity to let my daughter have more awareness of self-protection.
Mother Xue raised her head suddenly and said: "That one was advertised on TV earlier - learning Taekwondo and Karate. Why don't all the children learn it?"
"Go, go, go!" Xue's father frowned and said, "Those are foreigners' gadgets. Why do we want our children to learn foreign gadgets? Aren't our kung fu better?"
"Haha!" Xue Zhilan said: "Those are all learned by professionals and are not very suitable for such an old child. It is better to go to a more professional learning institution and learn some self-defense techniques."
"Hey! This is good!" Father Xue nodded in agreement: "It's more targeted!"
Cheng Tianyuan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said with a smile: "This is a good self-defense technique!"
Xue Ling also thought this suggestion was a good one and said with a smile: "There are quite a few such institutions now. We will check and ask around later. Try to find them in nearby urban areas. It will be convenient for the children to study on weekends, winter and summer vacations."
"Go and learn." Xue's mother said, "Not only do you have to be flexible in mind, but you also have to be flexible in body. The four of us can go together and take classes on weekends, during winter and summer vacations."
"Okay." Cheng Tianyuan nodded: "We will look for them later. After the New Year, we will let them learn."
After a while, the children all packed up and came out.
Everyone filed down.
Cheng Tianyuan took out the car keys, but Xue Ling stopped him and explained: "Lao Liu is waiting outside the community. There are eight or nine seats in that car. Our family can still fit in it if we squeeze in."
"Okay." Cheng Tianyuan said: "There are often traffic jams outside during meal time, and there is no place to park. It is more convenient to drive one less car."
Everyone got into the car, Cheng Tianyuan sat in the passenger seat, Xue Ling asked the children to sit in the back, helped the old man get into the car, and sat in the middle.
Xue Ling explained: "Ah Heng has already gone to pick up Auntie and Xiaohan. They went directly to the hot pot restaurant to meet us. I have sent him the address and he knows that place."
The commercial vehicle set off and arrived at its destination half an hour later.
The family set off early and arrived at the hot pot restaurant before the peak meal time.
The environment of the private room is very good, the traditional ancient style design is added with modern technological factors, and the lighting effect is excellent.
The children were the most excited. They gathered in front of the menu and ordered quickly, asking the three elderly people what they wanted to eat.
Mother Xue looked at the energetic children and smiled from ear to ear.
"Okay, okay! We're not picky about food. You can make the decision to eat whatever we have."
Xue Zhilan smiled heartily and said, "Their signature dish is mutton slices. Let's try a few plates."
"Okay!" Cheng Huanran counted and ordered six plates of mutton.
Xue Ling looked at the box number and sent a message to Xue Heng.
Cheng Tianyuan on the side couldn't help but ask: "Have you invited Ah Huan and the others to come over?"
"No." Xue Ling explained: "The young couple are too busy and are afraid of disturbing them."
Cheng Tianyuan reminded in a low voice: "Ask, if you have time, come and join in the fun. They and A Heng are both members of the same family. Let's call them as much as possible. Can we come and follow them?"
"Okay." Xue Ling dialed Xue Huan's number.
After a while, Xue Huan answered.
——Sister? What's the matter? Oh? I just got off work and am driving to pick up Xue Yue. Xiao Yi? She has to work the night shift tonight and has no time. I plan to take Xiao Yue to eat at my parents' place.
Xue Ling chuckled and explained: "Your parents and your brother are not at home. I will be the host tonight and treat everyone to hot pot. I will send you the address now. After you pick up Xiao Yue, come over and join in the fun."
"
——Really? Xiao Yue was still clamoring in the morning that he wanted to have hot pot at night! It would be great if his aunt treats him.
Ten minutes later, Xue Huan came with Xiao Yue in hand.
Soon, Xue Heng also led Xiao Han into the box, while Mrs. Chen was laughing on the side.
Everyone sat at two large tables, and everyone decided to eat whatever they liked. They laughed and chatted while eating, making the guests and hosts happy.
The family hadn't had such a lively and cheerful atmosphere for a long time. Xue Ling drank a little wine, her cheeks were red and she was a little tipsy, and she couldn't help but rub her temples.
