While dad and mom were busy, little Feng Ruoruo also started her day in kindergarten.
The first thing I did in the morning was to do some simple morning exercises with the teacher and stretch my limbs.
Next it’s time to play games.
When everyone was playing games together, Feng Ruoruo unexpectedly discovered that Liu Zihao was not very lively today.
When playing games, Liu Zihao is always the most active one, and he always likes to show off his strength while playing games.
But today, Liu Zihao seemed listless when playing games with everyone, and he didn't have his usual liveliness.
After the game was over, Teacher Fang asked the children to go back to the classroom and sit down to rest. Feng Ruoruo, Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei came to Liu Zihao together.
Feng Ruoruo asked curiously: "Liu Zihao, are you unhappy today? Are you sick?"
Liu Zihao looked up and saw Feng Ruoruo, Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei standing in front of him. The boy hesitated for a moment, turned his head away and said, "I'm not sick."
Seeing that Liu Zihao was very fierce, Yang Xiaoxi unhappily pulled Feng Ruoruo and Chen Yaofei to leave.
"Ruoruo, Feifei, let's go. He said he's not sick anymore, and he's still so fierce. We don't want to play with him."
Feng Ruoruo continued to ask seriously: "Liu Zihao, are you really not sick? You seem unhappy, why?"
Liu Zihao raised his head and said in a fierce manner, "Don't bother with it."
Seeing Liu Zihao being so fierce, Yang Xiaoxi was also unconvinced and said, "Who cares about you? If you hadn't gone to Ruoruo's house to eat snacks yesterday, we wouldn't have come to play with you."
In Yang Xiaoxi's heart, any child who went to Feng Ruoruo's house to eat snacks could be considered a friend.
Of course, those who didn’t go are also considered friends, but Yang Xiaoxi felt that if they went to have dim sum together, everyone’s relationship would definitely be better.
But Yang Xiaoxi didn't expect that after eating the snacks, Liu Zihao not only didn't get along better with everyone, but was still angry with her and Ruoruo. The little girl was very dissatisfied with Liu Zihao and turned around to pull Feng Ruoruo and Chen Yaofei away.
After listening to Yang Xiaoxi's words, Liu Zihao said angrily: "I don't want to play with you either."
Yang Xiaoxi was very angry and said to Feng Ruoruo: "Ruoruo, let's go. He won't play with us."
Chen Yaofei also whispered: "Let's go, Liu Zihao doesn't want to play with us."
Seeing that her two best friends had said it, Feng Ruoruo stopped insisting and just said to Liu Zihao, "Liu Zihao, if you are unhappy, you should speak out. Xixi said that if you speak out when you are unhappy, you won't be unhappy anymore."
Yang Xiaoxi was surprised and asked, "Did I say that?"
Yang Xiaoxi, who was a little confused, had already forgotten what he had said before.
Chen Yaofei still remembered it, and nodded to Yang Xiaoxi and said, "Xixi, you said it, you told me and Ruoruo."
Yang Xiaoxi nodded and said, "Okay then, but Liu Zihao doesn't want to say it."
After the three little girls lectured him in person, Liu Zihao finally couldn't hold it anymore. The little boy said, "Yesterday, I went to Ruoruo's house for snacks, and my grandma and I came home late. My mom scolded my grandma."
Hearing this, Feng Ruoruo immediately exclaimed: "Ah, how can your mother scold your grandmother?"
Yang Xiaoxi continued, "Your mother doesn't respect the elderly. Teacher Fang said that we should respect the elderly. How can you scold grandma?"
Chen Yaofei thought for a moment and said softly, "Your mother is your grandmother's junior. You shouldn't scold your grandmother. It's not good."
After Liu Zihao heard what the three girls said, the little boy became even more unhappy: "I know it's not good. My mother did something wrong. I told her off, but she didn't admit her mistake and even beat me."
Finally, the real reason why Liu Zihao was unhappy in the morning was revealed, it was because he was beaten by his mother yesterday.
Yang Xiaoxi thought about it and said, "Then your mother is even more wrong. She did something wrong and refused to admit it. How could she still hit you?"
Chen Yaofei said, "Did you do something wrong, or say something wrong? That's why your mother beat you?"
Children will think that if their parents beat them, it must be because they have done something wrong or said something wrong, such as swearing.
Liu Zihao thought for a moment and said, "I did nothing wrong. I was protecting my grandma at the time, and then I told her that if she talks about grandma again, I will ignore her."
At this point, Liu Zihao's face was full of grievance: "Then she hit me."
Feng Ruoruo was a little indignant when she heard this: "Your mother was wrong. She did something wrong in the first place. How could she hit you?"
Chen Yaofei said, "But Liu Zihao said he ignored Mom, that's not right, right?"
Yang Xiaoxi added: "Liu Zihao said, 'If his mother talks about his grandmother again,' he will ignore his mother."
Yang Xiaoxi's words stunned the children. It sounded like a tongue twister, which really made the children a little dizzy.
Even Yang Xiaoxi, who said this, felt a little confused when he thought about it.
There was a moment of silence, and finally Feng Ruoruo said, "Then, Mom shouldn't hit Liu Zihao so easily."
After hearing Feng Ruoruo's words, Liu Zihao suddenly felt as if his heart was open. He felt that Feng Ruoruo was very kind and was standing with him.
Of course, children don’t have so many thoughts. Liu Zihao just thinks that Feng Ruoruo is helping him and is on his side: "Feng Ruoruo, you are so nice. You always speak up for me."
The children were a little surprised by Liu Zihao's sudden praise.
Feng Ruoruo was stunned for a while, then quickly said: "No, I think your mother shouldn't hit you. You just spoke up for grandma and asked mom not to say anything bad about grandma. You didn't do anything wrong."
Liu Zihao nodded in agreement: "Yes, I didn't do anything wrong, but my mother beat me. She was wrong. It was my mother who was wrong."
Children always have a simple sense of right and wrong. They think that something is either right or wrong.
Now that Feng Ruoruo and Liu Zihao had said that, Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei also felt that Liu Zihao was right, and that it was wrong for his mother to hit him.
But when it came to figuring out who was right and who was wrong, the children became troubled again.
Yang Xiaoxi pouted and said, "Then Liu Zihao's mother is wrong. What should we do? Should we tell Liu Zihao's mother?"
Chen Yaofei thought about it and said, "How about we let grandpa and grandma talk to Liu Zihao's mother."
Yang Xiaoxi immediately rejected it: "No, Liu Zihao's mother scolded his grandmother. It's so fierce. Feifei, don't let grandpa and grandma go. Grandpa and grandma will also be scolded."
It has to be said that Yang Xiaoxi was quite sober. Although she couldn't say things like "one shouldn't get involved in other people's family affairs", she knew that she couldn't let Feifei's grandparents talk about Liu Zihao's mother.
Feng Ruoruo thought for a long time and came up with a solution: "We can tell Teacher Fang."
Tell Teacher Fang? The children were all stunned.
Liu Zihao was a little scared and said, "Shouldn't I tell Teacher Fang? If I tell Teacher Fang, my mother will definitely be even angrier, and she might beat me again when I get home."
The little boy said this, obviously he had similar experiences.
Feng Ruoruo said boldly: "We can tell Teacher Fang to stop your mother from beating you."
Liu Zihao asked doubtfully, "Will Teacher Fang tell my mother?"
Feng Ruoruo said confidently, "Yes, you did nothing wrong. Your mother shouldn't hit you, so we told Teacher Fang, and Teacher Fang won't let your mother hit you either."
After Feng Ruoruo's very strange "inference", Liu Zihao was successfully persuaded (fooled) and nodded and agreed to tell Teacher Fang.
After lunch, several children took the opportunity to run over to Teacher Fang and tell her about this matter during the break before nap.
When Teacher Fang first heard the four children chattering, she had no idea what was going on.
Sometimes it was Liu Zihao being beaten by his mother, sometimes it was Liu Zihao's mother being wrong, and sometimes it was asking Liu Zihao's mother not to beat him.
Confused, Teacher Fang could only tell the four children to stop talking: "Don't talk at the same time, talk one by one and explain the whole thing to the teacher first."
The second time, Liu Zihao spoke first. This time it was simpler and Teacher Fang understood it immediately.
Liu Zihao was at home yesterday and saw his mother and grandmother arguing. His mother scolded his grandmother, and he stood up to speak for his grandmother, but was beaten by his mother.
The matter was indeed very simple, but Teacher Fang felt a bit overwhelmed after hearing it. As a kindergarten teacher, it seemed that she should not be involved in such matters of children's families, nor was she qualified to be involved.
Especially the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. This is a historical problem. Does Teacher Fang really not know how to deal with it
So Teacher Fang could only persuade Liu Zihao: "Liu Zihao, many times, when adults quarrel, it's not like what you see. You are still children, don't get involved in adults' quarrels."
Feng Ruoruo couldn't help but say after hearing what Teacher Fang said, "But Liu Zihao was beaten by his mother."
Teacher Fang thought for a moment and said, "Liu Zihao's mother beat him because he got involved in adult matters. He probably didn't know who was right between his mother and grandmother, so he stood on his grandmother's side and talked about his mother. That was his fault."
Without waiting for the children to speak, Teacher Fang said to Liu Zihao seriously: "So, Liu Zihao, you have to remember not to get involved in adult matters casually. Adult matters should be left to adults. You are still children and don't understand many things."
After Liu Zihao heard what Teacher Fang said, the little boy was obviously unconvinced: "I understand. Mom scolded grandma because grandma took me to Ruoruo's house for snacks and came home late. Grandma has already apologized, but mom still keeps scolding grandma."
As Liu Zihao spoke, his voice became choked up, his little face full of grievance, and he seemed about to cry.
Teacher Fang was stunned by what was said. She felt that the child in front of her didn't look like a five-year-old child at all.
But if you think carefully about what Liu Zihao said, you won’t feel that there is anything wrong with it.
From a child’s perspective, Liu Zihao didn’t understand what “friction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law” meant, nor did he know that his grandmother and mother might have conflicts on a regular basis.
He is very intuitive. Yesterday, he went to Feng Ruoruo's house with his grandmother to have snacks, but he came home late. Then his mother was unhappy and kept complaining about his grandmother.
Liu Zihao felt that his mother shouldn't always talk about his grandmother, so he stood up and spoke for her.
So in the child’s sense of right and wrong, he or she will feel that he or she has done nothing wrong, so why would his or her mother hit him or her
Teacher Fang is really confused now. He doesn’t know how to explain this problem to Liu Zihao
After thinking for a long time, Teacher Fang could only say, "How about this, when kindergarten is over in the afternoon, if your mother comes to pick you up, I will tell your mother to stop hitting you."
When Liu Zihao heard the teacher say this, he was immediately satisfied and nodded: "Well, thank you Teacher Fang."
Feng Ruoruo then added: "Teacher Fang, Teacher Fang, you also need to tell Liu Zihao's mother that she cannot scold Liu Zihao's grandmother."
When Teacher Fang heard this and saw that the four children were looking at him seriously, he felt a headache again.
Finally, in order to get the four children to go to bed, Teacher Fang had no choice but to agree: "Okay, Teacher Fang will tell Liu Zihao's mother not to quarrel with his grandmother in front of Liu Zihao in the future."
The four children were quite satisfied with this answer and nodded with a smile.
In order to stop the children from continuing to speak, Teacher Fang said first: "Shouldn't you go to bed? Otherwise, the teacher will not allow Feng Ruoruo's father to send snacks on Friday."
After Teacher Fang said this, the children quickly took off their shoes, ran into the nap room with mats, and climbed onto their own little beds.
Teacher Fang sat at the door, looking at the group of children taking a nap inside. Thinking back to Liu Zihao's question just now, she couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook her head.
As he thought about it, as an adult, Teacher Fang couldn't help but envy these children.
You can be so carefree, you can think of many complex issues so simply, and you will be happy when you eat delicious snacks.
As Teacher Fang thought about it, he couldn't help but humming softly.
"I don't want to grow up..."
Half a day may sound slow, but it actually goes by very quickly.
The kindergarten children woke up from their nap, learned a few things from Teacher Fang, then did some handicrafts together, drew a picture, and finally sat down to listen to Teacher Fang read a story for a while. Then the kindergarten bell rang.
As parents came in to pick up their children one after another, the kindergarten seemed a bit crowded but also very lively.
Because Teacher Fang had announced that Feng Ruoruo's father would deliver snacks on Friday, today, except for Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei, no other children clamored to go to Feng Ruoruo's house for snacks.
Chen Yaofei's grandparents wanted their granddaughter to communicate with others more, and thought it would be just right for her to go home after having dinner at Su Ji, so they decided to take their granddaughter to Su Ji for dinner after kindergarten every day.
Yang Xiaoxi's father naturally had similar ideas, since his daughter liked to eat Ruoruo's father's food. Of course, today, Yang Xiaoxi's mother would go to the Old Street Night Market to take pictures.
After Feng Ruoruo, Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei were picked up, and most of the other children were also picked up, Liu Zihao's mother finally arrived.
Out of her promise to the children, Teacher Fang naturally also spoke a few words to Liu Zihao's mother separately.
In fact, the main point is that Liu Zihao's mother and family members should not quarrel in front of the children in the future, and should not beat the children casually.
Teacher Fang did not touch on other people's family affairs, that is, she started from educating the children and hoped that Liu Zihao's mother would consider her child's mental health.
Although Liu Zihao's mother is quite aggressive, she still takes her son's problem very seriously. After listening to Teacher Fang's private lecture, Liu Zihao's mother also readily agreed that she would not quarrel in front of her child and would not beat or scold her child casually.
The matter seemed to be resolved, but was it really resolved? Perhaps only Liu Zihao's family knew.
On their way home, the three girls, Feng Ruoruo, Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei, also told their parents about this incident. All three little girls were a little proud and felt that they had done a great thing to help children.
