Dad Academy

Chapter 1212 It’s hard to say goodbye when we meet (13, please vote for me)

In the evening, Tan Jin'er called and asked about Xi'er's parent-teacher conference.

She started the video and chatted with Zhang Tan for a few words. Before she could finish her words, Zhang Tan couldn't laugh or cry, so she gave her phone to the child Tan Xi'er who was watching helplessly.

If he didn't give the phone to Xi'er immediately, Zhang Tan would feel that he had robbed her sister.

Although he didn't, Xi'er felt that way to him.

Tan Xi'er, a child, was holding her mobile phone and chatting with her sister. Balabala talked about what happened at today's parent-teacher meeting, and proudly said that she had met many mothers of her little friends today. These mothers are so gentle, hiahia...

On the other end of the phone, Tan Jin'er asked her to put her phone away, otherwise all she would see would be her mouth and nose.

This sentence made Tan Xi'er laugh so much that she couldn't stop laughing. She opened her little mouth to scare her sister on the other side.

Xiaobai was sitting on the sofa watching cartoons and laughing from time to time.

Zhang Tan went out and came to the second floor. He saw that Aunt Huang's office was open and the lights were on.

He walked in and saw Aunt Huang working at the desk.

"Zhang Tan is here." Aunt Huang heard the movement and raised her head to greet him.

"Aunt Huang, have you eaten?" Zhang Tan sat on a chair in front of his desk.

"I've eaten." Aunt Huang took off her reading glasses and said, "Here, I'm calculating this year's accounts, and the results have just come out."

Zhang Tan glanced at the thick account book on his desk. Aunt Huang pushed it to him and let him take a look.

Zhang Tan took it in his hand and looked through it at will. The ledger recorded the daily expenses of Little Red Horse Academy.

"After all, the academy has still made losses this year." Aunt Huang said guiltily.

"This has nothing to do with you. We have known for a long time that it is impossible to make a profit by opening Little Red Horse Academy. Just think of it as a charity academy. If you think about it this way, we won't mind."

"Public welfare is public welfare, but public welfare must also be healthy and sustainable. If we continue to operate at a loss like this, it shows that there is a problem with our model, and it also shows that my capabilities are limited."

"How come it's about you? This has nothing to do with your ability. On the contrary, if you were not in charge, the academy would not be able to operate at all. There would be no place for so many helpless children."

According to Aunt Huang's estimate, Little Red Horse Academy has probably lost about 150,000 yuan this year.

When Zhang Tan heard this number, he didn't feel much excitement in his heart. 150,000 was really nothing to him, but this 150,000 could give many children in Pujiang City a safe haven.

What you lose is much worse than what you gain.

So it's a good deal.

As for Little Red Horse achieving breakeven, of course it’s good if it can, but it doesn’t matter if it can’t.

Zhang Tan doesn't plan to increase the fee, it's good as it is now.

He came out of the office and went to the classroom on the first floor and saw many children playing.

Dudu's figure also shuttled among them. She ran past Zhang Tan holding a rag doll.

"Liuliu, Luoliu—look at our baby."

"Haha, what's wrong with the baby?"

"Don't laugh at me, the baby is sick."

"Good guy, I'll give the baby an injection and he'll be fine in a moment."

With that said, Luliu opened the first aid kit that he had prepared, took out a big and scary pin from it, and stuck it into the doll's butt. At the same time, he coaxed the doll to stop crying, stop crying, and it would be fine in a while. .

It turned out that he was playing house and treating ragdolls.

After getting the injection, Dudu said that the baby was indeed much better. He carried the doll back and when he passed by Zhang Tan's feet, he looked up at him and let out a haha ​​as a greeting.

Zhang Tan understood the subtext, and the general idea was, ha, I'm busy, I don't have time to talk to you.

Dudu carried the doll back and handed it to another child.

Zhang Tan knew the little girl named Xiu Xiu whom he met at the Xi'er parent-teacher meeting yesterday.

Xiuxiu happily hugged the doll and listened happily to Cheng Cheng's story.

Teacher Xiaoliu came to Zhang Tan at this time. Seeing that he was observing Xiuxiu, he said, "That's Xiuxiu. She has been in the academy for more than three months. She will leave after tonight."

"Ah?" Zhang Tan asked in surprise, "Leaving after tonight? Where to go? Going back to your hometown?"

Teacher Xiaoliu nodded and said: "I heard from her father that she wants to go home. The kindergarten semester is almost over, and she and her father are going back to their hometown to celebrate the New Year."

"Will you come back?"

"have no idea."

Zhang Tan was silent. When he saw Xiuxiu's father yesterday, he could tell that Xiuxiu's father probably worked here and was dressed very frugally.

A migrant worker like him might be in Pujiang this year and might go to Qicheng next year. You never know.

Just like Malanhua and Bai Jianping in the past, they traveled to so many places, and Pujiang was just one of the stops on their many journeys. If they hadn't met him, they might have left with Xiaobai long ago, and they didn't know where they would go.

There are too many little red horses for children like Xiuxiu who come and go.

Zhang Tan took a walk in the yard, strolled around the studio, and chatted with Lao Li for a while before returning home.

Xiaobai and Xi'er have gone downstairs to play with their friends.

Zhang Tan sat in the study and worked in front of the computer. Time passed slowly. In the silence of the night, he suddenly heard faint crying coming from the yard.

He stopped typing on the keyboard and listened carefully. Sure enough, there was a cry, and it sounded like Xi'er's.

He checked the time, it was already half past nine in the evening.

He got up, first went to the balcony and looked down, and sure enough he saw Xi'er crying in the yard, surrounded by many children and several teachers.

He also saw Xiuxiu's father among them.

Zhang Tan went downstairs and found Xi'er crying while hugging Xiu Xiu.

People around her were trying to persuade her to let go and let Xiu Xiu go home, but Xi'er was reluctant to let go.

Xiu Xiu also held Xi'er. Xiu Xiu's father stood aside, carrying a luggage bag and a huge packaging bag at his feet. The zipper at the mouth of the bag seemed to be broken, revealing a quilt inside with small Rabbit cartoon pattern. He stood aside quietly and let Xiu Xiu, Xi'er and other friends say goodbye.

The two little ones hugged each other tightly.

Not only are they good friends at Little Red Horse, they are also good friends at kindergarten, and they spend more time seeing each other than their relatives every day.

In the eyes of adults, three months is very short, and it passes in the blink of an eye.

What can you do in three months? Let alone becoming a close friend with a stranger.

People's hearts are so unpredictable.

However, for children, in their short life, three months can be a long time, enough for them to become good friends with each other.

None of the adults came forward to persuade him. Maybe they had already tried to persuade Zhang Tan before he came, but to no avail.

Xiaobai took two steps forward, touched Xi'er's little head, then touched Xiuxiu's little head, and held both little ones in his arms.

Although she has limited contact with Xiuxiu and is not familiar with it, she will be sad when every child leaves Little Red Pony.

At this time, Dudu rushed out of the classroom, got through the crowd, held a doll in his arms, patted Xiuxiu who was hugging Xi'er, gave the doll to her, and said anxiously : "*\u0026amp;amp;%%￥ # %......"

Zhang Tan recognized it. This doll was the one he saw before. Dudu held it while playing house. He went to Liuliu for medical treatment and injection, and was held by Xiuxiu to listen to it. Let Cheng Cheng tell the story.

Dudu hurriedly uttered baby talk. Although everyone couldn't understand what she said, everyone could understand that she wanted to give this rag doll to Xiuxiu.

Xiuxiu hugged the doll tightly and whispered thank you Dudu.

With a beeping sound, she looked up to the sky and cried, hugging Xiuxiu with tears in her eyes.

After watching it, vote for the month
