Chapter 33: A Slap in the Face

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Xingxing is in kindergarten class, and we are busy every day, but we are full of happiness in our busyness.

Waking up early is my busiest time, sometimes I can't wake up in the morning, I dress him in order to be in a hurry, sometimes the clothes are put on he still closes his eyes, most of the time I am pretending to be asleep, I poke his fingers twice in his creaky socket, he can't hold back and laugh, and then wash, we leave home hand in hand, and start a happy day.

We have a little girl downstairs named Coco, she lives with her grandma and grandpa, and Xiao Xing is in a kindergarten, this year in middle class, every day her grandparents drive this little girl to kindergarten, sometimes bumped into, Coco Grandpa always let take their car to kindergarten, I always refuse, I feel very happy on the way to kindergarten with Xiao Xing, the car is too fast, I haven't said a few words to arrive.

That day, I got up a little late, and Xiao Xing hurriedly packed up and rushed down, and went downstairs just to meet their car just started, but Grandpa Coco rolled down the glass and shouted: "Let's go, you will definitely be late for the car." "I looked at my watch, it was really too late, and there was a meeting in the morning, so I pulled Xiao Xing to get in the car. We sat in the back seat, Coco's grandmother put her arm around the little girl, Xiao Xing sat in the middle, and I sat next to the car door. Coco's grandmother greeted me warmly.

I asked Xiao Xing to call Grandma, and Xiao Xing said loudly: "Grandpa, Grandma is good." ”

I said I hadn't asked my sister yet. Xiao Xingxing said, "Good morning, Coco." ”

The little girl's grandmother smiled and said, "This child is really well-behaved and polite." ”

Xiao Xing watched the grandfather drive intently, and he was attracted by the grandfather's skillful gearing movements.

I turned my head to look at Coco, smiled and said, "Coco, good morning." ”

Coco pouted and looked unhappy.

Grandma quickly took over the topic and said, "She hasn't slept yet." ”

I saw Coco say loudly: "I don't want him to take our car, let him go down." ”

The atmosphere instantly became very uncomfortable, and the three adults were particularly embarrassed.

Coco's grandmother hurriedly said: "Happy is your good friend, and Happy let you play with his car that day, do you want to share it with friends?"

Coco began to twist around on her grandmother's thighs, humming and chirping, "Won't I let him sit?"

I smiled awkwardly, took Xiao Xingxing's hand, and looked at Xiao Xingxing's expression, for fear that the child would be affected. But Xiao Xing watched the grandfather driving obsessively, and didn't hear anything at all. I'm not going down, I'm not going down, it's okay, it's coming soon, so I'm holding on for a minute.

Finally arrived at the kindergarten gate, Coco made more trouble, and suddenly waved his hand and slapped Happy in the face. I blocked Coco's hand with my left hand and hugged it with my right hand with joy. Coco's grandfather put the brakes on it, and the car finally stopped. I quickly opened the car door and hugged Xing Xing out of the car. Coco's grandfather quickly got out of the car and ran over and asked, "Are you okay?" I smiled awkwardly, "It's okay." Coco's grandfather said embarrassedly: "The child is used to not being presentable, I'm really sorry." ”

I hurriedly said, "It's all children, it's okay." ”

After saying that, I pulled my joy and hurried into the kindergarten. Walking to the door of the classroom, I squatted down and asked Xingxing, "Does it hurt?" and Xingxing said, "It doesn't hurt." ”

I hurriedly said, "It's okay if it doesn't hurt, let's get up earlier in the future, so that we can have more time, and let's take the bus, okay?"

Happy nodded seriously and said: "Mom, it's that Coco, she often beats others, and she also beat that child that day, and the children cried." ”

I quickly replied, "In this case, let's stay away from her from now on, okay?"

Happy replied, "Okay." ”

When I returned to work, I was in a bad mood. Thinking about giving the child a slap in the morning, my heart is not happy.

I was the first to pick up my child in the afternoon, and I always felt that my child had been wronged. When I saw Xiao Xing running to me happily from the team, hugged me and said, "Mom, you are the first to pick me up today, you are awesome." I laughed, a child is a child after all, and he has long forgotten all the unhappiness of the morning.

At night, when my husband came home, he was happy to have slept. I told my husband what happened this morning, and he was very angry and looked left and right with the child's face. I smiled and said, "Kid, what can you do?" ”

He looked at me, wanted to say something, and held back.

I knew he wanted to blame me. I also know why he held back, because he went to work far away and was very busy, and he couldn't help if he left early and returned late, so he was embarrassed to accuse me.

When he got up in the morning, he said to me, "Go get a driver's license." ”

I stared at him, "You're fine." Do we still need to buy a car?"

He replied, "You should learn first." ”

In those days, there were very few private cars, and with such economic conditions as mine, I never thought about it. But I know that the reason why he said this was because he felt that his child had been wronged. I smiled and ignored him.

That night, he handed me a receipt for the collection, which belonged to the driving school. I realized he meant it. He told me, "In the future, when the children go to school, you have to pick up and drop off the children, and you must learn to drive." "Actually, I know that his self-esteem has been hurt, and he can't tolerate his child being slapped in the car. I laughed, and for the sake of his self-esteem and his love for children, I went to study. But God knows where the money is for the car.

Going to a driving school to learn, I was more miserable. First of all, the steering wheel of the jeep was very heavy, and my arm strength was very small, and every time I got down, my arm was about to break. The most embarrassing thing was that I was too low, and I had to put on two pads to reach the accelerator and clutch, and every time I went in and out of the garage, I had to lie on the steering wheel for a break in the middle of the drive. The basic drivers are men, and every time it is my turn to drive, they feel like they are watching a play, laughing back and forth.

Halfway through the study, I said to my husband, let's forget it, I really don't want to learn. He smiled and said, the money will not be returned, you can do it yourself, think about so much money, for the sake of the money, go on. After just two weeks of study, I came across a side parking test, and the coach told me, you can try it or not, you will definitely not pass, but you must accumulate some experience. A total of ten people went to the test that day, the coach put me in the first place, I knew that I couldn't pass anyway, so I put it very open, when it was my turn to park on the side, I actually staged a textbook-level parking teacher, that was the best time in my life to park on the side, I actually passed, the remaining nine people passed 5, the coach spoke highly of me, saying that I was an exam-type player, but this time gave me a lot of confidence, everyone is not laughing at me to put on two mats when driving, and finally I was the first to get a driver's license in that period。

The day after I got my driver's license, my husband said to take me out to celebrate, and we drove a long way to a car shop, and he pointed to a small red off-road road and said to me, this is it. I asked him in surprise, "Where did the money come from?" He smiled and said, "Ask my friend to borrow it, besides, let's buy the cheapest one, I work harder, and I will pay back the money." ”

I laughed at him, you didn't open your mouth to borrow money when you bought a house, but now you open your mouth to borrow money from others when you buy a car, you are so vain.

He didn't say anything, in fact, I knew that the slap, although it was a slap from a young and ignorant child, but it hit his son in the face, as a father, a father with responsibility, his love for his children is a kind of open-minded love, he would rather suffer himself than let his children suffer even the slightest grievance.
