The kindergarten was going to hold field parent-child activities on Sundays, and the teacher announced various matters in the parent group, so that parents could prepare in advance. In addition to parents, each child must also prepare a show to perform on the bus.
Ye Linchuan had just finalized the contract, and now was the busiest time, so he definitely didnât have time to waste a day with her. They all said that the eldest brother was like a father, and since his father could not participate, the burden naturally fell on Ye Qinghe.
Ziyu had never been to kindergarten, so this experience of outing with children was the first time for Ye Qinghe.
He was somewhat flustered, worried that this would not be done well or that would not be done right. After thinking about it, he couldnât help but contact Shen Zhou, who was very experienced.
The two of them video called and discussed the upcoming parent-child outing while doing group homework.
âMister canât take Yaya?â Shen Zhou held a pen to write, and asked casually.
Ye Qinghe shook his head, âMy dad just signed a contrast. It seems to be a real estate development. He wonât even be coming back home. How can he take Yaya for an outing?â
He still remembered that when he was in kindergarten, whether it was a performance or a museum exhibition, his father was always absent, either attending a meeting abroad or attending an important banquet.When his father was not free, his mother became the one who often accompanied him. Later, when his mother died, he would never see his parents again in school activities. Even the parent-teacher meetings were held with the help of secretaries or assistants.
Ye Qinghe was just a child, and he would naturally complain after a long time, but he did not blame him.
He was considerate of his fatherâs hard work and understood why he was paid. He put loneliness and sadness in his heart and turned it into motivation to study hard, took good care of his younger brother, and got along with his classmates and teachers.
Ye Qinghe made himself sad and mature enough, trying not to add any more troubles to his father.
But Ye Ya was still young, and half of the short life she experienced was spent in the laboratory. As her brother, he hoped that she would have a childhood that was not lonely, and he hoped that she would be carefree and smooth out those unfortunate memories.
âI hope I can replace dad and make her feel dependent.âYe Qingheâs clear voice was firm.
He grew up like this ever since he was Ye Yaâs age, and he didnât want Ye Ya to be like him, always looking at the figure of other peopleâs father enviously. If his father couldnât do it, he would replace his father and become the one who could make his younger brother and sister feel safe.
Shen Zhou stopped at the tip of his pen and looked up at Ye Qinghe. He suddenly felt that the children of rich people were also very pitiful.â¦â¦
Shen Zhou comforted and said, âYou donât have to be too nervous. Just follow along, and the kindergarten teacher will take care of other things.â Shen Zhouâs voice fell and his gaze fell upon a small face in the crack of the door observing in secret.
He grinned, âIs it Yaya?â
He found her!
Ye Ya covered her mouth, her black pearl-like eyes twitched twice.
Squeak.
Ye Ya opened the door and came in with a small step.
She was wearing a cake dress provided by Childrenâs Home and a rabbit ear-shaped hairpin. She had big eyes and small pink lips; she was naturally quiet and cute.
âHello, Brother Shen Zhou.â Ye Ya stood on tiptoe, holding the desktop with both hands, and sweetly greeted Shen Zhou on the video screen.
âBrother is doing his homework and canât play with you.â Even though he said that, Ye Qinghe still hugged Ye Ya on his lap.
She looked at the ballpoint pen on the table and stretched out her hand to get it.
âNo.â Ye Qinghe stopped her movements with a serious expression, âYa Ya canât play with pens.â
Ye Ya moved around disobediently on his lap, âYaya can help Brother do his homeworkâ¦â Brother was doing math homework, and she was the best at counting.
Ye Qinghe refused decisively, âBrother doesnât want Yaya to do it.â Besides, how would she know how to do it?
Ye Ya, who was rejected, put her hands around his chest and snorted angrily, turning her head and leaving him with an arc-shaped side face.
Shen Zhou casually changed the topic, âThe teacher said that children have to perform something. What does Yaya want to perform?ââ
This reminded Ye Ya.
When she came home from school on Friday, the teacher specially reminded the children to prepare a talent show in advance, saying that they would show it to their parents in the car.
But she didnât think about performing anything.
Ye Ya touched her chin with her index finger, her brows tangled and frowned.
She was mediocre and had no special skills. She couldnât do anything but sing, and there were only a few songs she could sing.â¦â¦
Looking at the little figure who was deep in thought, Shen Zhou pursed his lips and smiled, âYaya can think about it alone, and tell us when you have thought about it.â
She had to spend a lot of time thinking about this thoroughly; she wanted to think of the best show for her brother.
âThen Iâll go think about it.â Ye Ya jumped off Ye Qingheâs lap, patted the back of his hand, and said like a little adult, âToo bad, I can only do homework for Brother next time.â Putting her hands behind her back, she really went outside to figure it out.
Ye Qinghe watched Ye Ya leave, and silently gave Shen Zhou a thumbs up.
Genius, his tablemate was genius.
