During the Spring Festival, the capital's Chang'an Street is decorated with lanterns, but the always crowded roads are spacious and empty. In the CCTV station, the stars of the Spring Festival Gala rushed to the CCTV No. 1 studio, where they nervously conducted the fifth rehearsal.
Chu Xiaoyi followed the staff in a hurry, suddenly felt his throat dry and sore, coughed violently a few times, and subconsciously tugged on the brim of his hat.
When the agent He Xin saw that his artist was not in good condition, he hurriedly handed out the water bottle and asked worriedly, "Are you alright? Would you like some water?"
The director who led the way also stopped when he heard the words, the little girl looked at Chu Xiaoyi hesitantly with a hint of concern on her face.
Chu Xiaoyi saw that the people around him were looking at him uneasily. He didn't want to delay the progress of the staff, so he quickly waved his hand to indicate that he was fine, and said in a hoarse voice, "It's fine, just take some medicine at night."
The agent He Xin watched Chu Xiaoyi come to the stage. Seeing that the other party was holding on to the rehearsal on the stage, he could only sigh silently in the corner. Chu Xiaoyi caught a cold during the filming, and after finishing the film, he rushed to the Spring Festival Gala non-stop, and rehearsed nervously for several days. No wonder his health has not improved.
However, a celebrity is a profession where you can't complain about exhaustion and illness, especially an artist who is on the rise. Although Chu Xiaoyi is now a popular traffic niche, no one can guarantee that he will be popular for a long time, which makes him feel very dangerous, like a machine that does not dare to stop.
At the end of the rehearsal, Chu Xiaoyi was finally able to rest, sitting in front of the vanity mirror and taking medicine. He Xin asked, "Are you going home this year? I ask them to send your luggage back first?"
Chu Xiaoyi was a little stunned when he heard the words, and dared not say the truth: "I don't have to work?" Could it be that he was out of breath so soon
He Xin: "What kind of work can I have during the Spring Festival? Isn't it just the Spring Festival Gala performance?"
Chu Xiaoyi: "I didn't have a job in previous years..."
He Xin: "The year before last was an accidental delay, and last year was Director Chen's play. Those are all special circumstances. You should also take a year off!"
Chu Xiaoyi sat on the chair in a loss, looking a little confused and at a loss. He didn't expect that he could have a luxurious rest, and he could go home after a long absence for a good year.
He Xin reminded: "Would you like to call your uncle and aunt? You haven't been back for several years, have you?"
Chu Xiaoyi has been busy like a spinning top in recent years. During the Spring Festival, he did not relax, and even had little time to talk to his parents on the phone. This is something that can't be helped, and the work and rest of the two sides are completely different. Chu Xiaoyi was either on the plane, or on the way to the plane. When he was really free, it was already two or three in the morning. How could he call his family
His father, Chu Jiadong, would occasionally talk to him on the phone, but the two of them never talked for a long time, and often hung up after a few sentences. Mother Xiao Bi is a high school teacher, and she is also busy with her feet on the ground. Chu Xiaoyi has long been accustomed to it.
Chu Xiaoyi: "Let's wait until the end of the Spring Festival Gala. It's not too far away anyway. It's not bad for this phone call."
He hadn't seen his parents for a long time, and he didn't know what to say on the phone for a while, and he felt a little bit of a nostalgic feeling.
In Yurongtai Community, Han Ya saw the stylish tea room in the small courtyard, and immediately knew that this was the residence of high school teacher Xiao Bi. Teacher Xiao was dignified, elegant, and friendly, with the classical beauty of oriental women all over her body, and was very popular among students in the grade. Han Ya has been out of school for a long time now and still has a fresh memory of Teacher Xiao.
Of course, one of the reasons why Han Ya and others were so impressed by Mr. Xiao was that Mr. Xiao's son became a star.
When Han Ya was in the third year of high school, she made up lessons at the teacher's house. She also met the little boy Chu Xiaoyi and chatted with him about many pop singers. No one would have thought that Chu Xiaoyi's posters are now plastered all over the streets and alleys, becoming the idol that countless girls are chasing wildly. Han Ya can always see Chu Xiaoyi on TV, and recall the teacher from his mother-like face.
As a well-known high-end real estate, Yurongtai is beautiful and quiet in the community, with an excellent environment. It can be said to be quiet in the city. Xiao Bi's home is located on the first floor, with its own spacious courtyard, which is well-maintained.
"Mr. Xiao, happy Spring Festival!"
As soon as Han Ya entered the room, she was warmly welcomed by Teacher Xiao. Xiao Bi looked at Han Ya, who was carrying a large bag and a small bag, gave her a reproachful look, and said helplessly, "Come on, come on, still carry so many things?"
Han Ya smiled and said, "I spent so many meals at my teacher's house in my third year of high school, and now I have to make up for it."
Xiao Bi didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she heard the words, so she could only help the student put down the things in her hand and greet her to sit down at the same time.
There were two elderly people in the room, one man and one woman, who were choosing dishes. They greeted Han Ya awkwardly when they saw Han Ya's arrival. Xiao Bi introduced: "This is Xiao Xiao's uncle and aunt. Come here on New Year's Eve to celebrate the New Year together."
Han Ya hurriedly said, "Happy New Year's Eve!"
"Hello, hello." The two old people were a little embarrassed, they hid in the kitchen with the vegetable bowl, leaving the living room to Xiao Bi and Han Ya.
Not long after, Chu Jiadong, who was wearing an apron in the kitchen, also came out. With a red face and a loud voice, he greeted Han Ya with a smile, and immediately went back to the kitchen to continue cooking.
"Mr. Xiao is really amazing, Mr. Chu actually cooks at home?" Han Ya joked, "The big boss still does housework?"
Han Ya's high school is among the top three key middle schools in the city, and most of the female teachers are well-married. At that time, an English teacher was so angry that she was poor in the class, and she said that if she had not had the ideal of a teacher, she would not come here to experience life. Xiao Bi is considered to be unobtrusive in the school, but the students who are close to her know that her family is well-off.
Xiao Bi smiled and said, "What kind of big boss is he? He's taking Xiao Xiao at home now."
Han Ya: "Mr. Chu now has both sons and daughters, so he doesn't need to continue to struggle. He is happier than many big bosses!"
Xiao Bi made tea for Han Ya, and then took out the refreshments to serve. The two chatted for a while, and after recalling the past events of the year, they slowly cut to the point. Han Ya is now an expert in education, and for some time specialised in the research on psychology and education of supernormal children. After Xiao Bi heard the news, she found her former student and asked for advice.
Xiao Bi looked distressed: "I went back to school a few years ago after giving birth to Xiao Xiao. She has been playing around with her dad at home, and I didn't notice anything unusual..."
Han Ya laughed and said: "Look at what you said, just playing with President Chu can make a child prodigy, isn't that good?"
Xiao Bi sighed slightly and lowered her voice: "Actually, I hope she is just an ordinary child, you don't know how harsh her father used to be to Xiao Yi. If Xiao Xiao really has the potential in this regard, he will not have to die. Forcing her to learn, is she the same as Xiao Yi back then?"
Han Ya showed a thoughtful look, she had heard a little about the Chu family. It is said that when Chu Xiaoyi wanted to be a singer, he had a very unpleasant quarrel with his father, Chu Jiadong. Chu Jiadong was very worried about Chu Xiaoyi giving up his studies. Although Chu Xiaoyi is now famous, it does not mean that the estrangement in the past has disappeared.
Han Ya comforted: "Don't worry, in fact, child prodigies are not mysterious, and the research on supernormal children at home and abroad has become more and more in-depth. If Xiao Xiao's intellectual development is indeed far beyond that of his peers, or has some kind of special talent, then she It is said that learning more is a good thing, but learning less will delay her..."
"Do you know the Junior Class of No. 8 Middle School? There are specially recruited supernormal children of the right age and provide them with a suitable learning environment. If supernormal children are placed in normal classes, it may cause them to feel disgusted with learning, because their The learning ability far exceeds that of the peers, and there will be a feeling of 'not enough to eat' in class, thinking that school is boring."
Xiao Bi smiled and nodded: "You are an expert in this field, so I asked you to come and have a look."
Han Ya: "Let me meet Xiao Xiao first, and I happened to have a test question..."
Before Han Ya finished speaking, she suddenly saw her little head sticking out from behind a wall not far away, and she couldn't help but be slightly taken aback. The little girl is pink and jade-cut and her eyes are bright. She looks young and is hiding behind the wall curiously to peek, making people inexplicably reminiscent of the "observation in the dark" emoji.
Xiao Bi followed Han Ya's line of sight, she immediately found Chu Xiaoxiao behind the wall, and said, "Xiao Xiao, what are you hiding there for?"
Chu Xiaoxiao cut Qi Liu Hai, her hair was tied back obediently, her face was like a ball of glutinous rice, she said softly: "Mom, I want to go to see Sister Yang Yin to play."
"It's going to be dinner soon. Come over and say hello to Sister Han Ya, and go out later."
Chu Xiaoxiao looked at Han Ya, she seemed to be observing something, her eyes flickered. Seeing that she was cute and well-behaved, Han Ya simply spoke first and said with a smile, "Hello Xiao Xiao, I'm Han Ya, I used to be your mother's student."
Chu Xiaoxiao's eyes were like translucent gems. She looked at Han Ya for a long time, making him a little confused.
Han Ya always felt that she was completely seen through by the little girl in front of her, and waited blankly for Chu Xiaoxiao's reply.
No one knows that the young Chu Xiaoxiao has a special ability, she can see the emotional color of the people around her. In her eyes, everyone's heart has a different color, her mother Xiao Bi is crimson, Han Ya is orange, all are friendly and kind colors. This also made Chu Xiaoxiao unguarded in front of them.
"Xiao Xiao, say hello to sister quickly." Xiao Bi couldn't help reminding her little daughter when she saw that her little daughter was motionless.
Chu Xiaoxiao was sure that Han Ya was sincere and harmless, and she immediately became lively and relaxed, and said generously: "Hello, sister, my name is Chu Xiaoxiao."
Seeing that the little girl was innocent and confident in her speech, Han Ya felt relieved and said, "Xiao Xiao, I heard from Mr. Xiao that you are very good at foreign languages. I also want to learn foreign languages recently, so I can ask you some questions. ?"
Han Ya has dealt with many extraordinary children, and naturally knows the importance of equal communication. Geniuses or child prodigies always seem to have quirky temperaments, and if adults put on airs in front of them, they basically hit a wall.
Chu Xiaoxiao tilted her head and thought for a moment, instead of replying to Han Ya right away, she ran away like a bunny hopping.
Han Ya looked at the little girl who suddenly ran away, and looked at Xiao Bi in a bit of bewilderment, not knowing where she had offended the other party.
"You're poking a hornet's nest this time, she probably won't let you go for a while..." Xiao Bi couldn't help laughing, "In our family, we don't dare to casually 'learn' or 'ask' from her."
Han Ya: "?"
Before Han Ya could react, she heard the sound of the scroll wheel. Pushing a huge whiteboard taller than herself, the little girl charged towards Han Ya with great interest, and finally stopped steadily in the middle of the living room.
Chu Xiaoxiao adjusted the iPad page and handed it to Han Ya. She instantly assumed the attitude of a little teacher and said seriously: "Sister, please choose the courses you want to study."
Han Ya looked at the content on the iPad and became confused. It listed various courses, ranging from serious courses such as English, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, etc., to informal courses such as splits, cat language, happy elimination. Xiaole, etc.
Han Ya: "..." It seems that something strange is mixed in.
Han Ya said patiently, "Are all of these things Xiao Xiao knows?"
Chu Xiaoxiao stood on her hips and raised her chest. Her little face was full of pride: "These are things I can teach others." In other words, she didn't have a language she was proficient in, and she wasn't on the list for the time being.
Seeing her complacent, Xiao Bi couldn't help but reach out and knock on her little daughter, reminding: "Don't be too proud."
Chu Xiaoxiao gestured with his fingers, corrected it rigorously, and said solemnly: "I am only a little proud, not too much."
Han Ya couldn't help laughing when she heard the little girl muttering in a milky voice. Xiao Bi was also helpless, unable to stop Chu Xiaoxiao from showing off childishly.
Han Ya suppressed her curiosity about the cat language. She chose one item at random and said, "Then I'll choose Japanese."
Han Ya doesn't mind playing with Chu Xiaoxiao for a while. They used to play simulation games where teachers teach and doctors give injections when they were young, which is a unique and beautiful memory. Games are an excellent moment to show children's thinking logic, which is a good entry point.
Seeing that Han Ya had decided to finish the course, Chu Xiaoxiao immediately prepared in full swing, and turned out the lesson plan he had prepared.
Xiao Bi noticed the surging enthusiasm of her youngest daughter. She glanced at Han Ya sympathetically and sighed, "You will regret it later, she is really a good teacher."
Chu Xiaoxiao likes to teach and be a teacher the most, and I don't know if this talent comes from Xiao Bi.
Han Ya: "?"
Han Ya originally wanted to observe Chu Xiaoxiao through the game, but she didn't think that the little girl was not playing a family, but she really wanted to teach.
Chu Xiaoxiao brought a small chair, and she stood on the chair in high spirits, writing on the whiteboard with a pen. Not long after she was teaching, she noticed that Han Ya was silent, and immediately said dissatisfied: "Sister, why don't you read along?"
Han Ya: "..." Because I just wanted to observe your language skills, and didn't really want to learn Japanese
Han Ya: "I-I'm afraid I can't read well..."
Chu Xiaoxiao said solemnly: "Then you have to follow along. Let's repeat it again, あ, い, う, え, お."
Han Ya looked embarrassed. As an adult, she was sitting in the living room of Teacher Xiao's house again. She was really embarrassed to read a foreign language, so she whispered to test: "Xiao Xiao, sister has a set of exercises in hand, otherwise we will do it together..."
Han Ya has now made a preliminary evaluation of Chu Xiaoxiao, so there is no reason to continue to fall into the Japanese course and can enter the next stage. She has a set of exercises for supernormal children that test their logical thinking and image recognition.
Chu Xiaoxiao immediately shook his head, with a decisive attitude: "No, learning can't be abandoned halfway, あ, い, う, え, お!"
Han Ya bit her head and said, "I'm in a normal state today. I'll learn from you another day, okay?"
Chu Xiaoxiao: "あ, い, う, え, お!"
Han Ya: "..."
Chu Xiaoxiao: "あ, い, う, え, お!"
Han Ya said with an air of gossamer: "あ, い, う, え, お..."
Chu Xiaoxiao instantly showed a satisfied look and continued: "か, き, く, け, こ..."
Han Ya really had no choice but to listen to the little girl's lecture for 45 minutes, and it was a high-quality course that must be followed to prevent distraction. If she wanted to touch the phone, the girl would show a disapproving expression, and the other party silently blamed her with her eyes, which made her feel distracted.
At the end of the first Japanese class, Chu Jiadong greeted everyone to eat in a timely manner, and this interrupted Chu Xiaoxiao's continuous behavior. Seeing this, Han Ya was relieved and finally got up from the sofa. She was devastated by the high-intensity course, and she really felt a little hungry, and at the same time she was secretly grateful.
Han Ya: Fortunately, I didn't choose the cat language just now, otherwise it would be a shame.
If she really chooses cat language, she feels that it is entirely possible for Chu Xiaoxiao to force herself to meow and read.
