Gu Yanzhi clicked on the chat interface, followed this line, and found that the other party was Bo Zai kindergarten teacher, and he just added the Xunxin with little cub today.
There was a high frequency of chats between the two, and hundreds of messages were sent to each other overnight. The sentence that the other party asks the most is “Bo Zai, is your dad home?”
Gu Yanzhi sat down on the sofa, with no expression on his face, and slender fingers tapped the screen twice to reply.
[Bo Zai: Not yet.]
The other party seemed to be on the side of the light brain, and he got a reply as soon as the news on his side was sent.
[Mom: Really?]
[Mom: Have you eaten dinner?]
Gu Yanzhi replied blankly.
[Bo Zai: Not yet, Bo Zai will wait for Dad to come home.]
[Mom: Does your dad come home so late every day?]
[B Zai: Um. Sometimes he comes back early, sometimes he is late.]
[Mom: So, are you hungry?]
Gu Yanzhi replied “hungry”.
He can almost guess what the person opposite will reply to in a moment.
It’s nothing more than “The teacher will cook for you every day, okay?” “What do you and your dad like to eat? Teacher will make a portion for you whenever I cook for myself, then you can take it home, OK”…
The other end did not disappoint him.
[Mom: Teacher found a delicious cake shop next to the kindergarten. Tomorrow you help teacher organize the cup holders. After that, teacher wil treat you to eat cakes? You take it home after school and eat when you are hungry, so you won’t be hungry.]
Gu Yanzhi with a cold face imitated his son’s usual language habits.
[Bo Zai: Really? Bo Zai can really eat small cakes tomorrow!]
[Mom: Really. When did the teacher ever lie to Bo Zai]
[Mom: Bo Zai, what kind of cake do you and your dad like?]
Gu Yanzhi looked at the question opposite, with mockery in his eyes.
In fact, he always wanted to ask these people who put their careful thoughts on the surface. Since he wanted to cook dinner and buy cakes, why did he ask his preference?
Bo Zai was 5 years old, simple and cute; he will always be used by people again and again.
[Bo Zai: Grapes! Both Bo Zai and dad like grapes!]
[Mom: The teacher also likes grapes.]
[Mom: Then tomorrow teacher will treat Bo Zai to eat grape-flavored cakes.]
[Bo Zai: Good! Thank you, teacher!]
Gu Yanzhi couldn’t talk anymore. He wanted to make an excuse to quit the message, but saw another message from the other party.
[Mom: Will the cub feel scared at home alone?]
Sometimes I will get scared, Teacher Xie.
Gu Yanzhi stops his fingers, deleted the last name, reedited it, and clicked to send it.
[Bo Zai: Sometimes I get scared, teacher.]
[Mom: Send a message to teacher when you are afraid in the future. Teacher will accompany you.]
[Bao Zi: Will teacher be here all the time?]
Gu Yanzhi finished this sentence, opened the expression bar, and chose a smiley face.
There is no need to talk anymore. He knows the other party’s purpose and can guess what the other party will reply.
[Mom: It is uncertain.]
Gu Yanzhi paused.
[Mom: Teacher cannot guarantee that I will always be there.]
[Mom: One day Bo Zai will grow up, teacher will help you to overcome this kind of fear.]
Gu Yanzhi deleted the expression in the input field and replied a “Okay”.
–
When the little cub woke up and rubbed his eyes, he saw a figure on the single sofa.
“Dad?” He yawned, struggling to stretch his short legs to reach the slippers on the floor. He wear the slippers and ran to Gu Yanzhi’s body, and the chubby little body leaned on Gu Yanzhi’s knee. , “Dad, what time is it?”
Gu Yanzhi glanced at the time on the terminal: “It’s almost half past ten.”
It turned out that it was almost half past ten.
No wonder he is so sleepy.
The cub closed his eyes and was ready to continue sleeping, and when he thought of Xie Yishu, he opened his eyes again.
He turned his head to look at the couch but didn’t see his child’s light brain and he suddenly become sober: “Dad! Where is Bo Zai’s light brain?”
“Dad saw it turned off when I came back and helped you charge the light brain.”
“Oh.” Bo Zai ran to the study, and he saw the light brain was charging on the bay window. He pressed the power button to open the chat interface with his mother.
Looking at the content of the chat interface, the chubby face showed a confused expression.
Has he talked so much with his mother?
Why can’t he remember?
Was he talking to his mother half awake? Bo Zai scratch the chubby face, think it is very possible.
Because he said to his mother at the end, he felt a little sleepy and he will go to sleep first.
He also sent an emoticon of ‘Little Bear Sleeping Soundly’ to his mother.
Gu Yanzhi leaned on the door frame and asked the little cub: “What’s wrong?”
Bo Zai subconsciously turned off the message and hid his light brain behind him: “It’s nothing.”
He couldn’t let his father see the content of his chat with his mother.
With his chubby hand behind his back, he turned off the light brain and ran to Gu Yanzhi to hug him with his chubby little arms. He changed the subject with a guilty conscience: “Dad, why did you come home so late today?”
Gu Yanzhi pretended not to see that the little cub was changing the subject. When he picked him up, he pat little cub ass lightly and said: “Dad has been busy with work recently. I heard Aunt Qiu say you haven’t eaten dinner yet? “
Addicted to chatting with his mother, the little cub who can put aside his favorite dinner nodded. He was afraid that his dad would ask him why he didn’t have dinner. He took the initiative to please: “Bo Zai wants to wait dad to come home and have dinner with dad.”
If it weren’t for housekeeping telling him that the little cub had been holding light brain all night. Then, he saw the chat record in the light brain; Gu Yanzhi would probably really believe his words.
Gu Yanzhi held little cub with one hand, freed one hand to open the cupboard door, and selected little cub’s least favorite flavor among the many children’s nutrient solutions, and brewed him: “It’s not good to eat too much food so late, Dad will accompany you. You drink the nutrient solution.”
Bo Zai looked at the dark green powder in the blender and said weakly: “Dad, can Bo Zai change the nutrient solution flavor?”
He did not want to drink celery cucumber carrot kale mixed vegetable flavor nutrient solution.
He wanted to drink sweet strawberry flavor, or a fragrant mango flavor.
It would be better if it was replaced by his favorite sweet grape flavor.
“Aunt Qiu said you haven’t been drinking mixed vegetables for a long time.” Gu Yanzhi deliberately added a little less water, pressed the button, and started the blender to mix the water and powder, making it a mess, “Daddy will give you less water. Isn’t it good to eat to eat the paste?”
Three minutes later, the little cub looked at the dark green paste in his own small bowl and clenched the small spoon.
“Dad, did Bo Zai do something wrong?”
Gu Yanzhi didn’t answer him, but just said: “It’s not good to be a picky eaters.”
The little cub wore an uncomfortable face, staring bitterly at the nutrient paste of the vegetables, and finally succumbed, honestly digging and eating with his own small spoon.
Gu Yanzhi looked at the little chubby cub who was honestly eating nutritious paste and slowly said: “Bo Zai, do you want to go to District 21?”
Before the little cub wake up, Gu Yanzhi has been thinking about that “Teacher Xie”
As an ordinary parent, he contacted Lu Yun, the director of Yunshan Kindergarten, and asked about the basic situation of the new life teacher in the small mushroom class.
The other party said that the newly hired life teacher really lacks relevant work experience and training experience, so she can understand his concerns and worries in this regard. However, she hopes that he can trust the teacher and the school.
Lu Yun believes that this “Teacher Xie” will be a good life teacher.
Because this man still submitted his resume when the school recruited a monthly salary of which has less zero, and he has great insights into the work of nurses.
After learning that the other party was initially willing to work as a life teacher in the Little Mushroom class with a very low monthly salary, Gu Yanzhi had a judgment in his heart.
He has seen too many of these people in recent years, each of them have a certain purpose.
They want to approach him.
They want to be his lover’s substitute.
They want to be Gu’s wife.
In order to approach him, they tried hard to make themselves similar to Xie Yishu.
Some have similar eyebrows, and some have same back images. Some have a similar voice, and some have a similar personality. Some changed their names, saying that there was Shu in his name; some even changed their life experience, saying that they had lived in an orphanage when they were young.
Some approached him at the banquet, while others wanted to make Bo Zai as their tools to get in high position.
They come out one after another.
Each one of them is like a joke.
Although Gu Yanzhi can handle these people and things well, he has been bothered an tired from it.
In addition, the little cub also grew up day by day, began to remember things and was sensible… Gu Yanzhi didn’t know what means was used by “Teacher Xie” to make the little cub want him to be his mother, but he knew that he could not replace Xie Yishu as a the child’s mother.
“Teacher Xie” is not the first, nor will it be the last.
Gu Yanzhi didn’t want these people and things to affect him and Xiaoshu’s children.
So he wanted to take the cubs to District 21.
No one there will connect him with the main star Gu family.
And that is Xie Yishu’s hometown.
The little cub will love it there.
Sure enough, Bo Zai put down the small spoon, no longer sullen n bowed his head to eat, but asked him: “Dad, you are talking about Mouton? The Mouton where my mother lived?”
“Yes, the Mouton star that your mother lived in.” Gu Yanzhi said, “You may not remember, it is a very beautiful planet.”
He took the pup to the 21st district two years ago, but at that time, the pup was still small. Like a goldfish, his small head melon could not remember what happened the day before.
“Bo Zai is going!” The little cub thought he was going to play there, cheered, and could not wait to ask, “Dad when will we go?”
“This weekend, let grandma take you first, okay?” Gu Yanzhi could not directly take the little cub to the 21st district, “Daddy’s company still has some things to deal with. When those things are done, Dad will take you to District 2.”
Gu Yanzhi thought about it and gave a specific time: “at the latest one month.”
In one month, he can handle the company’s affairs and settle in District 21 with his cub.
Bo Zai said happily: “Okay, okay.”
He is so happy. Although he has seen the photos and knows that his father took him to Mouton Star before, he was still a baby at that time and he didn’t understand anything. Going to Mouton Star this time is no different to him for the first time.
And he also likes Grandpa very much.
As long as he can take him to District 21, he doesn’t really care whether his father took him or his grandfather took him.
“Bao Zai has to organize his suitcases and bring light brain too. By the way, if Bo Zai want to bring light brain with Bo Zai, the charger must not be forgotten. There are also packs of milk-flavored biscuits to take with me on the flight. I want to share it with my grandma…”
The little cub was a little excited, even the mixed vegetable paste that he doesn’t like usually pleasing to the eye. He ate all up, took his napkin and wiped his mouth, jumped out of the chair, kicked his short legs and wanted to go to the study room and make a list. However, he was stopped by Gu Yanzhi.
“It’s already this late, you should go to bed.” Gu Yanzhi carried the little cub to the second floor and took him to wash up. “The list can be done tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Bo Zai nodded his head, held Gu Yanzhi’s neck, and touched Gu Yanzhi’s face affectionately with a small hand, “Bo Zai go to bed early and get up early tomorrow.”
Then go to kindergarten early and tell his mother the good news.
–
The next day, Bo Zai was almost late.
He was so excited last night. He keeps on tossing and turning and only fell asleep near morning. As a result, when Gu Yanzhi called him to get up the next day, he slept like a pig, holding a small pillow and couldn’t open his eyes.
Gu Yanzhi just let him sleep.
Since there is that kind of “Teacher Xie” in the kindergarten, even if the little cub can’t get up and want to ask for leave, Gu Yanzhi will happy help him.
It’s a pity that the little cub woke up in time with his little biological clock and saw the time displayed on the bedside alarm clock, like being struck by lightning.
“Dad! Why don’t you call Bo Zai to get up! Bo Zai is going to be late!” The chubby cub stomped his feet, anxious, and wishing to grow wings in the next second and flew to the kindergarten.
In this regard, Gu Yanzhi was very calm: “Dad called, you didn’t get up.”
The little cub was indignant, but he couldn’t argue with Gu Yanzhi, so he could only finish breakfast quickly, wipe his mouth, and rushed out the door with his little schoolbag on his back: “Bo Zai is going!”
Along the way, he also desperately urged the driver’s uncle to “hurry up,” but even then, when the cub arrived in the small mushroom class, his friends in the class have filled the class.
An An and Tang Tang surrounded Xie Yishu and asked Xie Yishu to tell them the story on the picture book.
Bo Zai looked at this scene with grief and anger.
The time in the morning to spend with his mother is gone!!
Xie Yishu also saw the little cub standing at the door with his head down and exuding a decadent atmosphere.
He finished reading the story for An An and Tang Tang, walked to the cub, pinched his chubby face, and smiled and said, “Bo Zai, morning.”
“Teacher thought Bo Zai going to ask for a leave today. Teacher was so happy to see Bo Zai coming to kindergarten.”
“Is it true?” is really convince from the coaxing. When he heard that Xie Yishu said that he was very happy to see him, he got up again. “Bo Zai was very happy to see Teacher Xie!”
Xie Yishu saw that the little cub had regained his former vitality, and he was relieved. He bring a small chair to sit down, patted the small chair next to him, motioned to the cub to sit, and asked, “Why did Bo Zai come late today?”
He brought the cake and the chubby bear to the classroom in the morning. Originally he wanted to give it to the chubby cub when no one was in the morning. Now he can only find another opportunity to secretly put these two things in the chubby cub’s schoolbag.
As soon as he mentioned this, Puppy puckered his mouth: “It was Dad who didn’t call Bo Zai to get up.”
“He said that Bo Zai slept like a pig, and even when he calls, I didn’t wake up.” Little cub was a little aggrieved, “Bo Zai is not a piggy, Bo Zai was just a little excited last night and slept late. As long as he calls a few more times and shook Bo Zai vigorously, Bo Zai can still get up.”
Bo Zai originally wanted to tell Xie Yishu about going to District 21 on the weekend, but before sleeping last night, he thought about it and was not ready to tell.
He wants to buy a lot of special products in the 21st district, come back to his mother, and give her a surprise!
Bo Zai did not say why he was excited, and Xie Yishu automatically understood that he was excited to eat grape-flavored cake today.
It was the same when he was a kid, and what he hopes the most was for someone to celebrate his birthday.
No matter how hard it was in the orphanage, the dean’s mother would make a small cake for the birthday child. Children who have a birthday can get a larger piece and other can have a small piece of the cake. It is one of the most beautiful things in his memory.
Xie Yishu rubbed little cub chubby head.
He really likes the little cub so much.
Sometimes when he look at little cub, it reminded of himself.
It is probably one of the reasons why he likes Bo Zai so much that he can see his shadow on Bo Zai.
–
After school, the cub felt that the backpack was heavy.
He thought of his mother blinking mysteriously at him after lunch break, knowing that his mother had put the little cake he said last night in his schoolbag.
The cub chubby blushed red.
He likes this feeling; he and his mother have a little secret that only each other knows.
As soon as he got home, the cub opened the schoolbag and found that besides the cakes, there was also a toy bear.
The toy bear wears a small shirt and a v-neck sweater…This is the toy bear that his mother used as a model in the live broadcast room. The little cub looked at the toy bear’s familiar little clothes and realized that the toy bear usually accompanied his mother to live broadcast. He is like a little bear in his mother eyes!
This discovery made the little cub ignore the cake and ran to the study room to get the light brain.
[Bo Zai: Teacher Xie!]
[Bo Zai: [photo] [photo]]
[Bo Zai: Is this a gift from Teacher Xie to the Bo Zai?]
[Bo Zai: [photo][photo][photo][photo][photo]]
He was a little excited. Bo Zai’s hand couldn’t stabilize the light brain, thus the picture came out to be blurry. Thus, he asked Tori to help him use the continues shooting. He took a lot of pictures in one breath and sent them to his mother.
But his mother seemed to be busy, and he answered him after a while.
[Mom: Yeah, does the cub like it?]
[o Zai: I like it!!!]
Bo Zai stretched out his little chubby hand and touched the little toy bear’s head with pity.
In his former kindergarten, a little girl often brought the doll to the class, saying that it was an all-galaxy limited edition doll that her mother bought for her.
Bo Zai knows that he is a boy, so he shouldn’t compare the toys at home with the one the little girl has. But every time he saw the little girl bring the doll her mother bought for her to the kindergarten for everyone to see, he was still envious.
Because he didn’t have a mother to buy him toys.
But now he doesn’t have to envy the little girl!
He also has toys that his mother gave him! It is also all-star limited! It is unique!
He hugs the toy his mother gave him to sleep, assuming like he is hugging his mother to sleep!
[Bo Zai: Teacher Xie, this is the best toy that Bo Zai has received.]
[Mom: This is not just a toy.]
[Mom: Do you remember what teacher said to Bo Zai yesterday? Teacher cannot guarantee to be there all the time, but teacher can guarantee that teacher will accompany Bo Zai to overcome your fear.]
Bo Zai scratched the chubby face.
He didn’t actually remember.
Dad used to say that he must have been a small flathead fish in his previous life, because he would spit out milk foam after drinking milk. He had opposed this statement before, thinking it was his father’s slander, but now he couldn’t help but doubt it.
Is he really a fish in his last life?
Doubt turned into suspicion, and chubby cub swiped the screen quickly, and soon turned to the chat content of last night.
Mom did say this to him.
But why would he say such things to him?
The little cub asked Tori to read the content on the screen to him.
Tori read it flatly, and the cub listened carefully with its small ears on its side.
Listen, listen, open your eyes.
He told his mother that he would be afraid when he was home alone!
How could he tell his mother this?
He is not at home alone. He has the housekeeper grandma accompanying him at home.
And even if he is at home alone, he will not be afraid, because he is a little man, and the little man is not afraid to be alone.
Bo Zai crooked his small head and was very puzzled, but at this time his mother sent him another message. Bo Zai had to put the doubt aside first and let Tori read the latest message from his mother.
[Mom: Although teacher can’t stay with the Bo Zai, the bear can. When Bo Zai is scared at home, take the bear out and treat the bear as teacher to protect you, you won’t feel scared.]
[Mom: But most of the time, teacher is still there.]
[Mom: If you feel that something is wrong near your home, such as a bad guy wandering around, you must contact your father and teacher in this case. If the teacher does not reply, send a video invitation and the teacher will come over immediately.]
Hearing the “video invitation”, Bo Zai’s eyes lit up and asked eagerly.
[Bo Zai: Can Bo Zai send a video invitation to teacher only when Bo Zai in danger?]
[Mom: it’s okay even if it is on normal time. As long as teacher is free, we can video call together.]
The cub jumped with excitement.
The housekeeping grandma’s voice came from outside: “Little master, what are you doing in the toy room?”
Bo Zai immediately shrinks a little and covered his face with his paws.
But this still couldn’t stop the smile on the chubby face.
[Bo Zai: Can Bo Zai have a video call with teacher now?]
[Mom: I think we can’t right now, teacher is not in kindergarten… Bo Zai, are you alone at home now?]
[Bo Zai: Not alone. Grandma Qiu is also here.]
[Mom: That’s good. Teacher went out today and may not be able to reply to your message in time. However, teacher will read the message sent by Bo Zai, and will reply to Bo Zai immediately.]
[Mom: Bo Zai go and eat the little cakes. Remember to share it with Grandma Qiu]
Bo Zai naturally took his mother’s words as a sacred decree, and asked Tori to reply “okay”, and went to the housekeeping grandma with the teddy bear, and asked her to cut half of the cake for himself, which he shared with her.
On the other side, Xie Yishu also put away the light brain.
He looked at the magnetic suspension bus stopped in front of him, brushed the terminal and got on the bus.
001 reported to him with due diligence: “Host, according to the system query, there will be a slight traffic jam in three kilometers ahead, and it is expected to arrive at the main star port at 7.35pm. The host’s flight is TS089, and the latest boarding time is 8.20 pm, don’t worry about not catching up.”
This information can be found on the light brain, but he can’t bear to destroy the positivity of the small system: “Thank you, 001.”
“No need, host, this is what an excellent system should’ve done for the host.” 001 has a serious tone, but the rising tone still reveals the joy of being recognized for his work.
Xie Yishu looked at the receding scenery outside the window.
These days, he relied on the rewards of “Little Bear Superman” and other viewers in the live broadcast room to buy the ticket to go to 21st district. Yesterday, all the earnings from the live broadcast were taken out, and combine with the balance in the previous bank account. Then, he book a ticket to 21st district tonight.
He didn’t know if it is because he was travelling to his hometown, he felt a little nervous before he boarded the bus.
The light brain vibrate in his hand, and Xie Yishu opened the screen. It was a message from two people.
One comes from the chubby cub.
The little cub sent several pictures of the little cakes, probably taken by the little cub himself. He could see that the little cub worked hard, but each one was out of focus, and it became a blurry image.
[Xie Yishu: Is it delicious?]
The other party quickly replied to him, using several exclamation marks, and also sent a big smiley face with cream on the corner of his mouth.
[Little chubby cub: delicious!!! [image]
This picture is probably a selfie. If it weren’t for the iconic little chubby face, Xie Yishu would not have recognized the person in the photo as a little cub.
[Xie Yishu: That’s good.]
[Xie Yishu: I heard that the small mango-flavored cake is also delicious. Next week, teacher will treat you to eat the small mango-flavored cake.]
After sending this sentence, Xie Yishu switched the interface to view another message.
Another message was sent by his old friend.
[A ning: I’m leaving at 12:30 to Mouton Port to pick you up.]
The author has something to say:
Ning Bupei: I saw Xiao Shu earlier than you.
Gu Yanzhi: Oh. (on the surface calm but is actually mad)
