Dad Academy

"Tired?"

"I'm not tired."

"I'll carry you on my back."

"Hoo ho ho, I want it~"

Zhang Tan carried Xiaobai down the mountain. Xiaobai hugged his neck, feeling happy. She looked down at Dunzi, who was walking fast with short legs at her feet. She patted her old man's head and said, "Old man, you too Just memorize it."

Zhang Tan was taken aback and thought to himself, do you want to exhaust yourself to death, old man? Although Dunzi is not as tall as you, he is extremely stocky and weighs only more than you but not less.

Before he could make an excuse, Dunzi ran forward to clear the way, pointed at the ditch on the side of the path and said, "Xiao Bai, look, there are fish waving around~"

By this time they had arrived at the foot of the mountain, surrounded by paddy fields, crisscrossed by canals, abundant aquatic plants, and fish splashing in the canals.

When Dunzi saw this, he rolled up his trousers and went into the water to catch fish.

The water in the ditch was very shallow, barely covering his ankles.

There was a loud splashing sound in the ditch. It looked like there were a lot of fish. The natural environment in the mountains was so good.

Xiaobai eagerly got off Zhang Tan's back, laughed loudly, and ran to catch fish, even saying that this was her strength.

The two little ones were tinkering in the ditch for a while. It looked very lively, but the actual effect was not very good. After struggling for a while, they caught two crucian carp, but they gained a lot of happiness.

Zhang Tan on the shore did not stop him, just to let Xiao Bai change his mood. However, the clothes of the two little ones were already wet at this time. Teacher Jiang called them to come up, and Zhang Tan went down to catch the fish himself. He caught every fish accurately, and they were all little ones. Finally, all the crucian carp were released because there was nothing to put the fish in, and Xiaobai and Dunzi didn't want the fish to die of thirst.

After returning home, I changed Xiaobai and Dunzi into dry clothes. Since they were nowhere to be found, they ran out of the house immediately to play with other Xiaobais in the village.

These novices got the news and knew that Xiao Huahua was back, so they came to play with her specially.

Zhang Tan saw them wandering around on the field ridge. A group of eight or nine children were chattering and running back and forth.

It was almost noon now, and they had to prepare lunch. In fact, Dunzi's mother had been helping them prepare when they went up the mountain. At this time, Teacher Jiang joined in, and the two asked Zhang Tan to rest in the living room without interfering.

Zhang Tan came to the yard to enjoy the cool air and looked at a few little ones in the fields in the distance. He saw a group of people jumping into a puddle. It was too far away to see clearly. It seemed like that, but I guess it wasn't possible, Xiaobai. He Dunzi had just changed clothes.

However, contrary to expectations, these two little guys really jumped into the mud pit with others. When they were told to go home for dinner, they were so miserable that they were covered in mud because they were afraid of being scolded.

Dunzi's mother came out of the kitchen in a menacing manner, carrying a fire stick. When Dunzi saw this, she shouted, turned around and ran away without saying a word, and ran out of the yard quickly and onto the ridge of the field. His mother was chasing behind him while saying harsh words. Suddenly, he fell down from the narrow field ridge and fell into the paddy field, turning into a clay doll. Not only was his body covered with mud, but his head and face were also covered in mud. It's mud. His mother took a stick and forced him out of the paddy field and escorted him back...

Xiaobai was stunned, looking at the miserable Dunzi, and then at Zhang Tan, fearing that her old man would teach her a lesson like Dunzi's mother, so should she run away?

Dunzi came back, and was taken to a well by his mother to rinse with water. The mud was finally washed away, and then he was beaten. He held his mouth in frustration and wanted to cry. Xiaobai comforted him.

"Xiao Bai, come here. You also need to take a shower and change clothes. These are clean clothes you just changed into." Zhang Tan said.

"Old man, are you angry?" Xiaobai asked carefully.

Zhang Tan said he was not angry, and Xiaobai asked if he would hit her, but Zhang Tan said no.

After changing the clothes of the two little ones, it was time for lunch. Dunzi's mother changed drastically now. She was no longer as fierce as before, but she continued to take food to Dunzi with concern.

Xiaobai looked at it in a daze.

There were also vegetables from her old man in her small bowl. She looked at her old man and found that her old man was smiling at her stupidly.

She knew that her old man would never be cruel to her, let alone hit her. A child has this intuition, she can feel it.

As for grandma, she won’t be cruel or hit her. She has never done so in so many years.

Neither of them are like Dunzi's mother, that's the mother who knows how to spank children and care about them, just like Malanhua.

"Don't eat so much chili pepper, it's not good for your stomach." Suddenly Zhang Tan said.

Xiaobai was stunned for a while, looking down at her small bowl. She didn't even notice that there were so many chili peppers, but it was delicious.

"It's delicious, but don't eat too much. It's not good for your stomach and your stomach will be uncomfortable." Zhang Tan explained.

"No, this is my strength."

Xiaobai didn't care. She wanted to eat, and she wanted to eat. The more Zhang Tan refused to let her eat, the more she wanted to eat. Teacher Jiang couldn't stand it, and persuaded her not to eat so much, and put the dishes with chili away. .

But Xiaobai didn't know what was going on, he just wanted to eat, so he jumped off the chair, went around the table looking for chili peppers to eat, looked at grandma and Zhang Tan, and laughed: "Ohhhhhh~~~ Don't you yell at me? ?”

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly stumbled and the small bowl fell to the ground with a clang, breaking into pieces and the food spilled all over the floor.

Everyone helped clean up and cared about whether she was injured.

Xiao Bai stood in a daze, staring blankly at the broken bowls and food on the ground. Listening to the caring words of the grandmother and old man beside him, he suddenly asked loudly: "Aren't you going to scold me?"

"Kid, why do you always want me to scold you?" Zhang Tan said funny and touched her little head.

Xiaobai suddenly burst into tears. Zhang Tan couldn't figure it out and quickly comforted him, saying it was okay, just break it if it was broken, as long as it was not intentional.

Xiaobai cried even louder, pushed Zhang Tan away, and walked out pitifully. Grandma Jiang followed. She didn't listen to Grandma Jiang, and sat on the threshold, looking at the fields outside the house, and continued to cry, crying very sadly. .

Zhang Tan, Teacher Jiang and Dunzi's mother looked at each other, but none of them understood why Xiaobai was crying. Dunzi's mother pushed Dunzi and signaled to comfort Xiaobai quickly.

Dunzi carried the rice bowl over, but his mother pulled him back, took away the rice bowl, and told him to concentrate and not eat while comforting Xiaobai.

Dunzi looked at the dining table reluctantly, walked over to Xiaobai, and sat on the threshold, saying nothing, just accompanying him.

Teacher Jiang saw that Xiaobai was crying and had no intention of stopping. He didn't understand why she, who had always been strong, was crying so sadly. Could it be that she was depressed after visiting her mother's grave in the morning?

She stepped forward and held Xiaobai in her arms. Xiaobai was still crying and took away her cell phone to make a video call to Malanhua.

The video call was connected, and Malanhua asked her in surprise what was wrong. Xiaobai was crying while eating hot peppers, breaking her rice bowl, and jumping into a mud puddle. She just said, "Come and beat me." .

As expected, Malanhua scolded her as a melon on the other end of the phone, but since she was already crying, she didn't scold her too harshly and just said she would settle the score later.

"Aunt~~~ You'll be back soon???" Xiaobai asked crying into the phone.

She cried so miserably that she fell asleep in Zhang Tan's arms until she was tired from crying, still sobbing from time to time in her sleep.

Dunzi's mother said pitifully: "It must have been suppressed by the tomb sweeping in the morning. I didn't cry at that time, I was holding on. Now I can't hold on anymore and that's why I cry so hard."

Zhang Tan carried her back to the room and sat by the bed to look after her. Her eyelashes were shaking from time to time in her sleep, which showed that her sleep was still uneasy.

He didn't know why Xiaobai was crying, but he must be missing his mother.
