The slight difference is that Jiaqi is becoming more and more sensible and capable, at the beginning of 06, under my teaching, Jiaqi has learned to sweep the floor, every time I clean the living room, Jiaqi will be next to me to help me pick up the bags on the ground, and sometimes take the initiative to throw them into the trash, at that time I really felt very touched. Especially again, when I watched Jiaqi work hard to sweep the dog shit pulled out by Xiaobai at home into the dustpan little by little, I felt very relieved.

Jiaqi, who used to ask me to wipe my little buttocks, unknowingly, is now able to handle poop for Xiaobai.

After that, I started teaching Jiaqi to read.

Except for a few part-time jobs, I spend most of my time at home, so I have a lot of time to teach Jiaqi to read and write.

Of course, the basis of handwriting is to teach her to know pinyin.

At that time, in fact, I had almost forgotten the A, O, and E I learned in elementary school, and in order to teach Jiaqi to know pinyin, I also went to buy a CD, starting from the most basic ā,á,ǎ,à to let Jiaqi learn my accent and mouth shape to slowly imitate,Little by little,Then teach an,ang,en,eng,in,ing,ong...... Finally taught her to spell, at first, because I was anxious for Jiaqi to learn pinyin, so I taught quickly, but Jiaqi was also confused, every time I had to confuse or forget, and then I slowed down the progress, and taught so many a few a day, and as a result, I persisted for more than a week, and Jiaqi really knew how to spell.

Speaking of which, Jiaqi's memory is really good, there are many times I only taught pinyin once or twice, seeing her open her mouth and opening and closing but not making a sound, thinking that she has not learned, she is going to repeat, but she read it out decently, which makes me very happy.

Teaching Jiaqi to learn pinyin is definitely not a matter of mastering it at one time, at that time I finally understood why the teacher always has to assign homework to students, the reason is very simple, that is, I am afraid that students learn in the classroom because there is no timely review and repeated use, and slowly forget over time, so in the form of homework to strengthen students' memory, exercise students' application ability.

I didn't expect this simplest reason to fully understand it after I started raising children, and I really felt that I was really too naïve at that time. I've always had an aversion to homework before, but now I understand how important it is.

After learning the importance of homework, I went to the nearby regular bookstore to buy some exercise books about children's Chinese pinyin and came back to Jiaqi to practice, every night after Jiaqi watched TV, I spread the homework book in front of the coffee table, urging her to take a pencil and slowly copy the pinyin letters on it, watching her sit in front of the coffee table, seriously holding a short 2B pencil to write out the crooked letters of the scene, at that time I really thought it was funny, of course, it was also very cute.

After that, I taught Jiaqi to write, of course, because I still clearly remember the scene of learning Chinese characters when I was in elementary school, so I also taught Jiaqi to write Chinese characters according to the method taught me by my elementary school teacher......

Speaking of which, perhaps because I have learned to be alone for a long time, I am also a relatively patient person, and after a period of time, Jiaqi finally learned to write pinyin and write a few simple Chinese characters.

At that time, my pride was really inflated, and I felt like I had done something as great as Newton's discovery of gravity and Edison's invention of the light bulb.

It's just that, because my own handwriting is not very good, so follow me to learn, Jiaqi's handwriting is always not very formal, there is no pen, it can only be regarded as more conventional, so I bought some calligraphy to let Jiaqi copy.

I still remember when I was in elementary school, I hated copying and writing because I always felt that it was too wasteful and didn't have much effect, but now, the calligraphy is the best way for me to improve Jiaqi's handwriting.

During the period of teaching Jiaqi to write, I forced Jiaqi to copy two pages of calligraphy every day, and Jiaqi also didn't like copying calligraphy, and whenever she had time, she wanted to play and watch TV, but then under my fierce scolding, Jiaqi still had to listen to me obediently and write calligraphy honestly.

After that, as Jiaqi learned more and more words, I asked her to copy short essays, and the articles copied were all relatively simple short essays that I chose, with not many words, but also simple, and only commas and full stops for punctuation, so Jiaqi was also easy to copy and not easy to make mistakes.

In this way, Jiaqi learned more and more words, and it became more and more complicated.

It didn't take long for her to learn to write intricate Chinese characters such as running, walking, and taking.

However, no matter how many Chinese characters Jiaqi learned, I never taught her how to write "papa".

The word Papa has always been written in English.

After a long time, Jiaqi asked me, "How do you write papa?" and I told her with a smile that the word "papa" is special, only in pinyin, not in Chinese characters. At that time, Jiaqi was stupid and really believed it, and in all the short articles I wrote after that, my name was always "papa".

Of course, I also started to teach Jiaqi to sing and memorize sentences, but memorizing sentences and other things is still a bit difficult for Jiaqi's age, and later I also learned from early childhood education books that it is best to teach a child to memorize sentences and rhyme poems, so that it is easy to remember.

According to the method in the early childhood education books, I was inspired later, so I made up a poem for Jiaqi according to the poodle Xiaobai at home, called 'Xiaobai Song', and Jiaqi really knew how to memorize it.

Since then, from time to time, I will ask Jiaqi when feeding Xiaobai: "Qiqi, come, recite the 'Xiaobai Song' to Papa." ”

Jiaqi looked at Xiaobai, narrowed her crescent-like eyes, revealing her little white teeth, under my clapping hands, she also clapped her little hands, and read briskly: "One pound weighs, two pounds weigh, three pounds of long hair, four pounds of love to hug, five pounds of bouncing, six pounds of running around, seven pounds of howling, eight pounds of hair loss, nine pounds of love to sleep, ten pounds can't wake up!"

"Well, that's right, Kiki is awesome!" I would pet Kiki's head and praise her, and sometimes give her a bear hug and kiss her on the face.

At that time, I really thought that I had supreme happiness.

Of course, life is not always happy.

Before the arrival of 06, Jiaqi had a cold and fever, and I was busy at that time, so I took her to the hospital to hang up the salt water for three days before the fever gradually subsided. As a result, within two days, I actually caught a cold, but fortunately, at that time, I only had a low-grade fever, and I was not feeling well, but after taking medicine for two days, I persevered.

After a week or two of tossing like this, Jiaqi and I, two sick cats who cherished each other, gradually recovered.

In the blink of an eye, it was already 06 years.

At the beginning of March 06, I didn't know what I had eaten, and I had a stomach upset, and my stomach hurt terribly, so I lay in bed for a day.

At that time, Jiaqi was lying on my bedside, her little feet looking at the sky and kicking, dragging her cheeks, her eyes staring at comic books, her little hands constantly turning, while I was lying at the head of the bed looking at her.

At that time, looking at Jiaqi, who was fascinated by reading comics in bed, I suddenly asked her, "Kiki, Papa has a stomachache, why do you say?"

Jiaqi slowly shifted her gaze from the comic book to my face, blinked her small eyelashes, and said innocently, "Because ...... Because Papa ate too much oily meat, he had a stomachache. ”

"Why doesn't Kiki have a stomachache?" I asked her tentatively, smiling.

Kiki rolled her little eyes, opened and closed her mouth, and said, "Because...... Because I have too many popsicles in my stomach, I am not afraid of oily meat......

"Why are you not afraid of oily meat after eating popsicles?"

"Because the stick is cold, and the meat is very oily and hot. ”

"Then how can my stomach be better if I eat papa?"

"Well, you have to take a lot of medicine to get better. ”

"What kind of medicine are you taking?"

Jiaqi hesitated for a long time, stared at me, her big eyes were as wide as two big cherries, and said innocently: "Of course you have to take cold medicine......

At that time, I laughed and my stomach cramped with laughter.

With Jiaqi, there is never a lack of happiness and innocence.

I always thought that Jiaqi and I would always be so peaceful and happy that we would be able to get along with each other in peace, and occasionally have a little turmoil, and we would be able to calm down quickly, every day like this, until we were old, until one of us died first.

But I was wrong.

I didn't expect that the warm and quiet life that I thought would last forever would be disrupted not long after, and besides, Jiaqi's life and I had a completely different direction.

That happened on 4/6/06.

That day, Jiaqi and I stayed at home as usual, idle and watching TV, when the phone rang suddenly.

I ran to answer the phone, but it was my uncle's voice on the other end of the line.

"Hey, Jiandong. ”

"Ah, uncle. ”

"Jiandong, how are you doing alone these days?" my uncle asked me very usually.

"Well, that's good. Uncle, don't worry. ”

"Well, you haven't found a job yet, have you?"

"Uh......" I was silent on this question, indeed, since my father died for three years, I have not found a permanent job, at most a few times I have gone to work part-time, a temporary job for a while, but because of Jiaqi, I finally gave up those jobs.

"That's right," my uncle suddenly lowered his voice, "Jiandong, I have helped you get through the relationship a while ago, my uncle has a friend from out of town who can let you go to the police academy to study, the premise is to take the exam, but the answer to the exam Uncle can help you get it, so you just need to prepare, you can enter the school, and after you graduate, you can go to the army, and then you can be assigned a job...... At that time, work wasn't a problem, was it?"

My uncle's words immediately caused an uproar in my heart.
