Saturday morning, rainy Jiangcheng had a rare sunny weekend!
The weather is surprisingly good, and the white clouds are like torn marshmallows, a few thin pieces, floating lazily under the light blue sky. The warm sunlight illuminates the earth brightly, as if everything is covered with a radiant brilliance. The grass and leaves in the yard are green, and the flowerbed that was planted just a month ago is colorful. Even the windows of the villa are like Glass generally reflects the colorful light!
Such good weather can naturally give people a good mood.
“Giggle, Baba, I want to brush my shoes too!” Xixi’s sweet laughter came from the open door.
Today, all the doors and windows of the villa are open, the heating is usually turned on, and the doors and windows are closed tightly. Although there is air exchange, the breath is cloudy after a long time, and the continuous spring rain some time ago also breeds some damp mildew, just in time Today, Yang Yi and Murphy opened the doors and windows to let in some air.
Crossing the steamed buns who are loyally guarding the door, I saw the figure of a little girl happily running past.
Xi Xi’s outfit is interesting today, with her pink, cartoon-patterned water boots on her feet, and loose yellow/colored rubber gloves on her hands.
These rubber gloves are for adults, and Yang Yi bought them according to her own size. For Xixi, they are really big, and the mouth of the glove is almost covering her elbow!
But Xixi didn’t care at all. She raised her two forearms to prevent it from falling down. Even so, the little girl ran to her father’s side happily like the wind.
“Aren’t you going to help mom clean up the sheets and quilt covers? Dad doesn’t need your help here.” Yang Yi said with a smile.
He was brushing his shoes. At first, he just wanted to wash the two pairs of small shoes that couldn’t fit. Later, he simply washed the other washable shoes at home.
“Mama said, Mama said she was going to use the washing machine, and I didn’t need my help. Then gave me this!” Xixi also shook her little hand happily and showed her father the rubber gloves she was wearing.
Yang Yi saw that his daughter wanted to help so enthusiastically, so he did not refuse. He took a small stool for Xixi to sit on, and then the father and daughter squatted in the toilet together to brush their shoes.
“You grab the heel, brush the sole, and as soon as the water flushes, the dirt will be gone!” Yang Yi gave a demonstration to her daughter.
Xixi’s big bright eyes watched her father’s operation, and she learned it in a proper manner.
I saw the little girl pick up her mother’s pair of slippers with one hand, while the other hand awkwardly grasped the long handle of the brush and brushed it with difficulty.
“You are like this, grab here, is it easier to control the brush like this?” Yang Yi found that Xixi was different from himself, the little girl’s hands were not that long, and the brush was not flexible, so she taught her to hold the handle middle.
Xixi brushed her mother’s slippers again, but this time, she found that it was really not that hard! The little girl couldn’t help but turned her head in surprise and said to her father, “Really!”
Yang Yi took the water hose and flushed it on her daughter’s brushed shoes, while laughing: “Really? Dad will tell you a funny story, okay?”
“Okay!” Xixi replied happily.
Want to listen to Dad’s story, Xixi stopped the movement of her hands, holding the slippers in one hand and the brush in the other, but looked at Dad curiously.
Yang Yi turned off the faucet and said, “A long time ago, there was a man with a long flagpole who was going outside the city. When he passed the city gate, he found that his flagpole was too long. What should I do if I can’t pass the city gate?”
Yang Yi told the story. In order to describe it more vividly, he also used a brush and a plastic bucket as a metaphor. The long brush is the flagpole, and the opening of the plastic bucket is the city gate.
So, looking at Dad’s gestures there, and the brush stuck in the hole of the plastic bucket, although Xixi doesn’t quite understand what the city gate looks like, she still has a general impression based on the door and the plastic bucket.
I saw the little girl giggling. She grabbed her brush, stuck it upright in the bucket, and said, “You can put it in like this!”
“That’s right!” Yang Yi snapped his fingers and said admiringly, “Xi Xi, you are too smart!”
Xi Xi smiled a little embarrassedly.
Yang Yi went on to say: “But that man was so stupid that he didn’t think of changing the angle to take the flagpole out. He sat there and was sulking! Later, an old grandfather came, and he heard about this After that, just tell this person, you can cut the flagpole off and take it with you!”
Xixi saw her father stroking the middle of the brush, her brain was very flexible, and she suddenly formed a corresponding image, she said in surprise: “It’s also possible!”
“Well, it’s not wrong to do this, because the flagpoles at that time were all made of bamboo. But there is a problem.” Yang Yi said, “After the flagpole is cut off, it can’t be used as a flagpole. Our If the brush breaks, it won’t work as well as it used to.”
Xixi was a little confused by her father’s reversal. She looked at her father in confusion: “What should I do then?”
“So it’s good to use the method you just said! You can take the flagpole out of the city gate intact!” Yang Yi said with a smile, “This story tells us a truth. There are ways to deal with one thing. There are many kinds, we should respond flexibly, and learn to find the most labor-saving, best-use, and best-solving methods! If you think it is not easy to use the brush like this, you can change the holding position, and there must be one that suits you! Right?”
Xixi understood this time, she replied sweetly: “Yeah!”
Still continue to brush shoes, the little girl felt that the slippers just now were cleaned, so she changed the slippers of the other foot.
Seeing this, Yang Yi quietly wrapped his hands around, took the slippers that Xixi had put down just now, and brushed them again.
Yang Yi thinks it’s rare that Xixi can be willing to help her parents with work. He doesn’t want to use his strict standards to scare off his daughter’s enthusiasm.
…
I don’t know how long it took, Yang Yi took Xixi, washed shoes, and other scrubbed waste items that were going to the kindergarten to the yard to dry.
The father and daughter were busy, and the steamed bun, who was basking in the sun, suddenly stood up, but after sniffing, he lay down slowly, but his eyes were still looking at the gate of the yard.
After a while, Lanzhou Kai’s chubby figure appeared at the door, accompanied by Lan Xin’s cheerful voice: “Xixi!”
“Xin Er!” The little girl turned her head in surprise.
The two little girls got together, and naturally they were talking and laughing. With a companion, Xixi can’t help her father’s work.
The pampered Boss Lan has a nanny at home, and he doesn’t touch the spring water with his ten fingers. At this moment, he is also standing next to Yang Yi, chatting with Yang Yi while watching Yang Yi string his shoes on the hanger.
A substantial breakthrough has been made in the negotiation of the land in Jinling City. Basically, the two parties have negotiated the price, and only the final signature is left. I have to say that Lanzhou Kai is very capable in real estate!
In the past few months in Jinling City, Lanzhou Kai not only negotiated with the **** of Wucheng County about the land that Yang Yi wanted, but also negotiated several hundred acres of surrounding construction land that had not yet been requisitioned. !
These land, Lanzhou Kai told Yang Yi, even if the playground is not in use at that time, he can use it for commercial development, build shopping malls, hotels around the playground, rent or sell it, and can make a lot of money !
Of course, we are still waiting for the submission of the report, the approval of the Jiangnan Provincial Department, and the final signature. Lanzhou Kai came back this time to take part in his daughter’s parent-child activity~IndoMTL.com~ You came here today, shouldn’t you be asking me for scraps? “Yang Yi looked at Lanzhou Kai vigilantly. This guy found that he was very good at educating his children. He often left Lan Xin here. For example, some math homework in kindergarten, he asked Yang Yi to help Lan Xin.
Sometimes, Yang Yi really wants to ask him: “Is Xiner your daughter or my daughter?”
Of course, this is just a joke. Yang Yi and Lanzhou Kai have such a good relationship, Yang Yi can be called Lan Xin’s godfather. It’s just that Yang Yi and Lanzhou Kai are not religious, and they don’t have the habit of using these strange names.
Lanzhou Kai said with a smile: “Don’t use the waste items, our family has asked Grandma Wu to clean up a batch, but you said, on Monday, don’t forget to come over after you finish your Xixi’s handicrafts. Help Xiner, or we can do it together, you know I have no talent for handicrafts.”
“Then what did you just say you wanted to talk to me about?” Yang Yi asked curiously.
“The problem with the school! Xiner and Xixi are going to primary school in the second half of the year. Should we also consider which primary school to choose for our children?” Lanzhou Kai really had business affairs to find Yang Yi.
