Soon Yang Ren went to the street to learn about the situation. He learned that the Disabled Persons' Federation had held such a Braille training class recently, so he directly signed up for Xu Yao. There are a total of five students in this class, all of whom have acquired blindness. The course lasts for three weeks and is taught by a very young female teacher.
When he sent Xu Yao over on the first day, Yang Ren was even more nervous than his son started school. He brought Xu Yao a thermos cup and made chrysanthemum and wolfberry. For fear of burning it, he insisted on waiting for the water to cool before closing the lid.
The classroom is not big, but everyone has a big desk. The teacher arranged for everyone to sit down, and then handed out a tool for writing Braille. As soon as she turned her head and saw Yang Ren still standing outside the door, she smiled at him and said: " You can go and come back after class."
Yang Ren rubbed his hands nervously and said embarrassedly, "Teacher, can you come out? I want to tell you about Xu Yao's situation."
The teacher was pretty good. He really walked to the door of the classroom, looked at Yang Ren with sincere eyes, and waited for him to speak.
Yang Ren said: "Xu Yao has a hearing impairment. I'm worried that you guys can't communicate normally. See if I can... mate, can I accompany you to read."

Looking at Yang Ren's blushing face, the teacher smiled slightly, saying that it is best not to accompany him to study, and asked him how he usually communicates with Xu Yao, Yang Ren naturally refused to say that Xu Yao can recognize language by touching his mouth, so he said: " You speak loudly in his ear and repeat it a few times."
"Well, don't worry, our communication should be fine." The teacher smiled.
Yang Ren was still worried and said anxiously: "Then please repeat it a few times, he can't hear clearly, I'm sorry to ask a few more times, I'm afraid others will be impatient. And he doesn't speak very clearly, but if you listen carefully, you should be able to understand."
The teacher's smile gradually expanded, and he said to Yang Ren, "Don't worry, our special education will be more patient than you think."
"Thank you, thank you!" Yang Ren folded his hands and nodded slightly to express his gratitude.
"You are his... family, right?" the teacher smiled, "I can see that you really care."
family.
The word appeared again, soothing Yang Ren's heart that was hanging in the air. He nodded, and couldn't help but look into the classroom. Xu Yao sat there, expressionlessly touching the school tools on the table.

Yang Ren went to Kang Xiaomeng and asked her what gifts girls her age like.
"What's the matter? Who are you going to give a gift to?" Kang Xiaomeng asked alertly.
Yang Rencai said that he wanted to give Xu Yao's Braille teacher a gift.
"Yang Ren!" Kang Xiaomeng shouted angrily, "When Tong Tong was in elementary school, I said to give gifts to the teacher, but you were unwilling. Now Xu Yao is going to a training class, so you will give gifts?"
Yang Ren smiled guiltily and said, "Isn't Xu Yao more difficult to learn than other students? I hope that teacher can help him more."
"You're being treated differently!" Kang Xiaomeng said to him, and he didn't return his mouth. He persistently asked what gifts the young woman liked, so he started to prepare.
Yang Ren gave the teacher a bottle of perfume, and then sent some small gifts one after another, but Xu Yao didn't know about them, and Yang Ren didn't want him to know. He just hoped that the teacher could treat Xu Yao a little better and not make him feel frustrated or helpless.

In fact, it is very difficult for adults to learn a new language or writing. Braille is naturally better in elementary school, but Xu Yao is an exception. His hands-on ability is particularly strong, and his touch is unexpectedly good. .
These five students are all adults, the oldest is 60 years old, and the youngest is 22 years old. They have not been blind for a long time, but they all find it very difficult to touch the blind spot. But after two classes, Xu Yao was able to figure out the initials of Pinyin. When the teacher and Yang Ren praised Xu Yao, Yang Ren became proud without noticing, he was even more proud than Tongtong's 100% exam.
Yang Ren waited outside the classroom every time, went in as soon as the class was over, took Xu Yao to the toilet, and helped him get some warm water. Until one day, the teacher told him that he didn't need to be so nervous to stay by Xu Yao's side, give him some space, let him study by himself, make friends with others, go to the toilet, etc., and take him to do it once or twice Just let it go.
Yang Ren thought for a while and knew that what he did was not conducive to Xu Yao's independent development, but as soon as he left his sight, Yang Ren felt anxious. He talked to the teacher and asked if there were any good ways to make deaf-blind people like Xu Yao live better.
The teacher told Yang Ren that he must cultivate his independence and give him some space for himself, otherwise, it is easy to have hallucinations for people who lack such dual senses.
"Illusion?" Yang Ren was shocked, this was the first time he heard the word.
