As winter approaches, the daytime becomes shorter, giving people the illusion that time passes quickly every day.
Just like the three little girls Feng Ruoruo, Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei, who had just taken a dance class in the dance studio for a while, looked out the window and saw that it was already dark outside. The little girls felt as if it was already very late.
During the break, Feng Ruoruo quickly came to her grandmother and asked, "Grandma, should we go home? It's getting dark outside. If we don't go home, Xixi, Feifei and I won't be able to help out at Grandpa's restaurant. We have to go home and sleep."
Lu Cuiling didn't quite understand what her granddaughter said at first, and asked curiously: "Why are you coming home so late? It's still very early now."
But after thinking about it for a while, Lu Cuiling immediately understood what her granddaughter meant.
She looked outside, then at her watch.
She immediately smiled and explained to her granddaughter: "Although it's dark, it's still early. Look at grandma's watch. It's just past six o'clock. Ruoruo doesn't need to worry."
Feng Ruoruo immediately held her grandmother's hand and looked carefully at the watch on her wrist.
Lu Cuiling showed it to her granddaughter and taught her how to recognize it.
"Look, the shortest hand is the hour hand, right above the watch, it's 0, and then count to see if there are 12 squares. Each square represents 1 hour.
Now it is 6 o'clock here, and then it is a little over 20 minutes. We can count this small grid, um, there are exactly three, which is 6:23."
Feng Ruoruo looked at her grandmother's watch carefully, and recognized it very seriously, writing down what her grandmother taught her.
After writing it down, Feng Ruoruo was a little surprised: "Oh, it's only 6:23 now?"
Lu Cuiling said, "Yes, so it's still early. After Ruoruo, Xixi and Feifei finish dancing, they can go to grandpa's restaurant to help out. Then we can play there for a while, and then go home at 8 o'clock. Is that okay?"
As the grandmother spoke, she was also teaching her granddaughter to tell time on her watch.
Feng Ruoruo thought this was very interesting, then turned to look at her grandmother and nodded in agreement: "Okay, let's go to Grandpa's restaurant to play, and then we'll play until 8 o'clock and go home."
When Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei heard what was said here, they came over and asked Feng Ruoruo curiously what was going on
"What's wrong with Ruoruo?"
"Ruoruo, are you tired?"
Feng Ruoruo smiled and said, "No, I saw it was getting dark outside, so I asked grandma what time it was. Grandma said it was still early, it's 6:23 now."
When Yang Xiaoxi heard what Feng Ruoruo said, she looked out the window and exclaimed, "Wow, why is it dark?"
Chen Yaofei took a look and asked curiously, "Why is it dark at 6:23?"
Chen Yaofei's grandmother smiled and said, "That's because it's winter now. In winter, the sun goes to bed earlier, so it's dark after 6 o'clock. If it's summer, the sun goes to bed later, so it's dark later too."
Yang Xiaoxi asked curiously: "Why does the sun go to bed early in winter?"
This time, Feng Ruoruo didn't wait for her grandmother to answer. She rushed to say, "I know. It's because Grandpa Sun works too hard in the summer, so in the winter, Grandpa Sun has to go home early and go to bed."
Feng Ruoruo almost shouted when she spoke, and ended up being heard by the kids and parents nearby.
This immediately caused the parents to smile kindly, and the other little girls also found it very interesting.
"Ruoruo, you are so smart. You know that the sun works hard in the summer."
"Ruoruo is right. My parents get off work later in the summer and earlier in the winter."
Feng Ruoruo said with a smile, "Right, right? In the summer, your parents work as hard as the sun, so in the winter, they should get off work earlier so that they can have more rest."
The parents found it really interesting.
"Ruoruo really put it very clearly."
"That's right, Ruoruo really put it in a very vivid and easy to understand way."
"I've always thought Ruoruo was very eloquent, but I didn't expect she could come up with such an interesting explanation."
Hearing other parents praising her, Lu Cuiling said, "Hahaha, don't praise Ruoruo like that. She's just a little smart. If she gets naughty, she's totally uncontrollable. But she does like to talk a lot. She just won't listen to her dad at home."
The other parents all laughed again.
"Hahaha, that's good of you to say."
"Yes, yes. I always want my child to talk more, but she can't express herself as well as Ruoruo."
"Yes, a child like Ruoruo who can express himself well is really amazing."
Lu Cuiling added, "Ah, you find it very difficult to deal with a talkative child at home. A lot of times, she can't stop talking. She asks all sorts of strange questions. The only person who listens to Ruoruo at home is her father."
Feng Ruoruo heard this and said, "Grandma, he understands everything that Dad and I say, but you guys don't understand."
Lu Cuiling smiled and said, "Yes, yes, some of your words can only be understood by your father. Grandma doesn't understand them anyway, so you should talk to your father more in the future."
Other parents of children couldn’t help but wonder what Feng Ruoruo would say to her father
"What will Ruoruo say to her father?"
"Yeah, why can daddy understand but grandma can't?"
"Will you talk about cooking?"
Lu Cuiling said: "There are indeed some things about cooking. The key is that this little girl often stays in the kitchen with her father. She sees a lot and always asks some questions about cooking. Then she will say, "Dad would do this, and you did that wrong."
After hearing these words, the other parents thought about it and immediately began to form an image.
It is really interesting to think about the scene where the grandma is cooking while the little granddaughter is giving instructions.
Lu Cuiling continued, "Besides teaching you how to cook, this little girl also likes to say some weird things. For example, she will tell you what she has seen and heard. Some of these things you have never heard of."
Feng Ruoruo immediately said, "Grandma, those are what other people said, and they were also shown on TV. Grandma, you didn't watch or listen carefully."
Lu Cuiling said with a smile: "Okay, grandma didn't watch or listen seriously, but you are serious."
Feng Ruoruo immediately threw herself into her grandmother's arms and started to act coquettishly again: "Grandma, don't be angry."
Seeing the looks of the grandparents and grandchildren, everyone laughed even more happily.
At this time, Teacher Guo clapped his hands and said, "Okay, okay, let's continue dancing. For the next half hour of class, everyone should cheer up and be serious."
The little girls immediately walked back quickly and started to practice dancing seriously following the music played by Teacher Guo, and clap their hands to the beat as Teacher Guo instructed.
This time, Teacher Guo specially choreographed a little dance for the children and planned to take the children to perform it.
This is also the children's first formal performance after learning dance for several months.
Therefore, parents are more cooperative and will urge their children to practice well at home.
In the dance class, the six little girls are all very serious.
Especially Feng Ruoruo, who was chosen as the lead dancer this time, danced very seriously.
Although the little girl keeps talking during breaks, acts like a spoiled child to her grandmother, and jokes with other children and parents, she becomes very serious when practicing dancing.
Once you enter that state, you may even feel like two different people.
Lu Cuiling was very happy watching her little granddaughter dancing like a fairy.
Although the dance practice is only half an hour, there will be some breaks in between.
Of course, during the break, the children cannot leave the dance area as they did during the previous breaks. They can only take a short break between dances.
Today's dance class ended at seven o'clock in the evening.
Guo Hong finally said to the children: "Well, everyone performed very well today. I hope everyone can maintain this state. Remember to practice well when you go home, remember all the movements, and practice them thoroughly. Do you understand?"
The children naturally answered in unison: "Understood."
Teacher Guo clapped his hands and said, "Okay, get out of class is over."
Feng Ruoruo led the other children to bow to Teacher Guo and said, "Goodbye, Teacher Guo."
Teacher Guo also bowed and said, "Goodbye."
After the dance class, the children changed their clothes one after another accompanied by their parents, then said goodbye to Guo Hong one by one and left with their parents.
As for Guo Hong, she had some more explanations with Feng Ruoruo alone.
"Ruoruo, you danced very well today. You have to remember that you are the lead dancer, but you can't just think about taking care of others. You have to complete your dance moves first. Your moves, 'da, da, da', have to follow the beat. You can't steal the beat, understand?"
Feng Ruoruo nodded seriously: "I know, Teacher Guo."
Guo Hong touched the little girl's head and said, "That's good to know. You did a great job today. Keep it up."
Feng Ruoruo smiled and said, "Okay."
Seeing Feng Ruoruo’s smiling face, Guo Hong also smiled.
I have to say that Feng Ruoruo's cheerfulness is really touching.
Many times, Guo Hong couldn't bear to scold her.
However, if Feng Ruoruo becomes willful, especially naughty, it can really make people crazy.
Especially since she had deliberately made a mistake in the dance before, Guo Hong couldn't help but get angry.
When she was scolded, the little girl really cried with tears in her eyes.
But after crying, Feng Ruoruo corrected herself and she never held a grudge again. The next time she came to dance class, she was still the most lively one and would come over to play with Teacher Guo.
This kind of personality really makes people like him very much.
Guo Hong sometimes wonders why Feng Ruoruo has such a cheerful and cute personality
"Teacher Guo, Teacher Guo, aren't you leaving yet? The get out of class is over and there's no one outside. If you walk alone, will you be scared after dark?"
Feng Ruoruo's voice brought Guo Hong back to her senses, and she realized that she had been stunned for a while.
Coming back to her senses, Guo Hong smiled and said, "Let's go. Teacher Guo will go with you."
Feng Ruoruo immediately asked with a smile: "Teacher Guo, if you come with us, are you also afraid of walking alone after dark?"
Guo Hong was left in tears and amused by the little girl's question.
Especially when I saw the little girl smiling, it was completely different from before.
Guo Hong gently pinched the little girl's face and said, "Okay, Teacher Guo is indeed scared, that's enough."
Feng Ruoruo covered her face and pouted, saying, "Teacher Guo, please don't pinch Ruoruo's face all the time. Mommy has said that Ruoruo's face has become round and ugly because Daddy pinches it so often."
Guo Hong laughed: "Hahaha, didn't your mother pinch your face too?"
Feng Ruoruo added: "Mom said that she pinched it gently and it wouldn't become round."
Guo Hong smiled even more happily: "Your mother said that to you? You are such a little cutie."
The others nearby couldn't help laughing when they heard this.
Chen Yaofei suddenly said to the little sister: "Ruoruo, pinching the face is the same. If your mother pinches your face all the time, it will also make your face round."
Feng Ruoruo looked at Chen Yaofei and asked, "Is that so?"
Chen Yaofei said: "Yes, because they are all face-pinching."
Feng Ruoruo covered her face and said, "I won't let anyone pinch my face anymore. Not even mom will allow it."
Lu Cuiling smiled and said, "It's over. After Feifei said that, Ruoruo will definitely make a scene with her mother when she gets home. It will be difficult to pinch Ruoruo's little face in the future."
Feng Ruoruo covered her little face and said to her grandmother: "Grandma, please stop pinching me."
Lu Cuiling agreed: "Okay, grandma won't pinch me anymore."
After getting the answer from her grandmother, Feng Ruoruo was still very happy and smiled and said, "Hehehe, grandma is so nice."
Lu Cuiling was also very happy: "Yeah, grandma is the best."
Then the grandparents and grandchildren held hands and went downstairs with everyone. They said goodbye to Teacher Guo outside the gate of the community. The three families and the three little girls returned to the ancient street together.
Because I promised the kids that I could go back and play for a while.
When we returned to the ancient street together, there was already a long line in front of Su Ji.
Feng Ruoruo pulled Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei and said, "Oh, there are so many people queuing up. Xixi, Feifei, let's hurry up and go back to change clothes, and then we can give out snacks to everyone."
Yang Xiaoxi happily said as she ran, "Okay, Ruoruo, let's go faster."
Chen Yaofei said: "Let's not run too fast. There are so many people on the street. Don't bump into anyone."
Under Feng Ruoruo's guidance, Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei were quickly pulled back to Su Ji.
After entering the door, Feng Ruoruo pulled Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei directly into the back kitchen, and ran into the yard of Lin Ruifeng's house next door through the side door of the back kitchen.
But once they ran into the yard, the three little girls realized that they were running too fast and their grandmothers were not following them.
Fortunately, the grandfathers were already waiting here. When they saw the little girls come back, they let the children eat together first.
In this way, the three little girls ate their meal first, then went out to distribute snacks, and played with the puppy, kitten, chicken and duck for a while before they finally went home satisfied.
