307 Reading and literacy
In the afternoon, the snow was still falling, and although the snow was small, there was already a white layer on the ground. The wind outside was not small, Tang Baiyu didn't go out, and stayed at home to watch the two children play.
Puyu and Erbao are lying on the thick carpet floor, and Puyu is playing with puzzles. This puzzle is made with thin wooden boards with brightly colored teeth, scratched in beautiful drawings, and then separated and polished smooth. Tang Baiyu glanced at it, and it was a rubbings of "Hibiscus Brocade Chicken". Erbao couldn't play with his brother, so he sat on the other side of the felt carpet and played with blocks alone.
Tang Anqing brought the fashionable fruit from outside, put it on the kang table, and saw that Tang Baiyu took a piece of the puzzle piece that Puyu needed, and said with a smile: "The fruit is here, come and eat." ”
"Daddy, Yu'er will fight it herself. Mother, I'm going to finish fighting and then eat. Puyu waved his small fist at Tang Baiyu, and Tang Baiyu stiffened his face and followed him. Tang Anqing walked up to Erbao with some bad taste, and reached out to knock down the castle that he was about to pile up. Erbao raised his head and saw that it was his favorite mother, but he waved his white and tender little fist unhappily, and then pulled the scattered building blocks in front of him, turned around, and played with the little farts against his mother and mother again. Tang Anqing saw that his youngest son ignored him, walked up to him with a smile, squatted down to see him playing happily, and touched his black curly hair, "You have fun." ”
On the other hand, he brought over the black lacquer luodian girdle on the side, and put some of the fruit snacks on the kang table into the dishes, and dutifully served Erbao and ate a small piece, Puyu saw it and looked at it with a blank look, "Mother, Yu'er also wants it." ”
"Okay." Tang Anqing had to get Puyu's favorite fruit and stuff it into his big open little mouth, Erbao saw it and snorted twice dissatisfied, and his little feet kicked and collapsed the castle he piled up, and his little butt rubbed in front of Tang Anqing, and he was about to stand up with the corner of Tang Anqing's skirt, Tang Anqing helped him stand up and took him to sit down on the ivy chair covered with satin cushions on the side.
At this time, it was the maid outside who came to report, saying that the sister-in-law of the Xia family was here.
Tang Anqing let her in, and Sister-in-law Xia came, holding Quan'er in her arms, her face was flushed, and there were tears on her face, as if she had just cried. Compared with Puyu and Erbaolai, Quan'er is like a child of normal age, who loves to cry and make trouble.
"Why is Sister-in-law Xia here? It's cold outside. Then let the maid pour a cup of boiling tea.
Sister-in-law Xia smiled embarrassedly, put Quan'er on the thick felt carpet, and the child immediately came to Puyu, and shouted with a small face: "Brother Puyu.. Hiccup.." There was still a cry in his voice.
"It's not like I want to play with Puyu after lunch, so I said that it will snow and wait for the snow to stop. But the whole brother just didn't stop, and he couldn't coax him, so he had to hug him over and play with Puyu. Sister-in-law Xia said embarrassedly, since Tang Anqing's family moved over, they usually want to find someone to play with when they open their eyes, except for going home for dinner at noon, they can't wait to play behind Puyu all day long. I couldn't stop it when it snowed, and I was so soft that I had to come to Tang Anqing's house with my whole child. Why do some of their own children mean that they are taken care of by other people's families?
"It's okay, just let him come over and play, anyway, this place is big, and it just so happens that Puyu is still playing puzzles alone." Tang Anqing said with a smile, "Sister-in-law Xia will cook for a while, do you want to eat some of this freshly washed fruit?" ”
Sister-in-law Xia didn't sit for a while, and after drinking two sips of tea, she told Quan'er two sentences before leaving.
Puyu was also willing to play with Quan'er, but she couldn't see him crying, so she let the maids lead Quan'er to wash her face in disgust. Seeing that Quan'er was still a little reluctant, but she was honestly led out by the maid and looked back at Puyu, Tang Anqing couldn't help laughing, "Our Yu'er is just to attract people, I don't know how many girls like you when you grow up." ”
"Humph! I don't want to play with those girls, they're so stupid that they know how to cry. "Okay, the pear blossom of the girl's family with tears is said to be crying, Tang Anqing is a little crying and laughing, and it is not a good thing for her own children to be too smart in some aspects. But a three-year-old child was so serious about talking about the future, and Tang Anqing nodded his nose and didn't say anything. "If you don't want to play the same puzzle with Quan'er, just go inside and bring the other puzzles to play, aren't there several sets of simpler ones?"
"Okay, Yu'er go get it." After a while, he took out a puzzle from his small room, and he was particularly narcissistic about his Q version of the puzzle, and there was an album. This is Tang Anqing's album for Puyu's enlightenment, the album is painted with animals and flowers, and the names and characteristics are marked at the bottom, coaxing the children to broaden their horizons in play.
"Yu'er, why did you bring the album?" Tang Anqing asked suspiciously. Erbao was lying in Tang Anqing's neck socket and looked at Puyu curiously, waving his small fist, "Guoguo.. It depends. ”
"Erbao want to see it? You don't know how to read yet, and I can't show you yet. I'll show you after my mother teaches you how to read. Puyu raised the album in his hand and raised his chin slightly, "I want to teach Xiaoquan to see, how can I not be too stupid with me, backfire, isn't it?" ”
"It's good that you want to teach the whole child to read and write." Tang Anqing nodded, "Do you want to teach Bao'er too, you have to set an example for your younger brother as an elder brother, or if Bao'er knows how to read, how about my mother reward you?" ”
"Is it okay to do anything, mother?" Puyu blinked her sparkling eyes and leaned over to speak. Tang Anqing nodded, "As long as it's not too much, my mother can agree to you." But don't overdo it. Tang Anqing playfully stretched out his finger and shook it in front of Puyu's eyes.
"Well, mother, don't worry. Teach my brother how to read, and let me do it. Puyu patted her chest and said proudly. Tang Anqing looked down at Erbao, touched his curly hair and asked, "How is it, Bao'er, I will reward you if you learn it." Bao'er, who was still reluctant, nodded obediently, and Tang Anqing put him on the felt carpet.
Tang Anqing sat on the kang table and watched with great interest as a three-year-old child taught a two-year-old child and a child less than a year old to read and write. Peeled a sugar fried chestnut and stuffed it into Tang Baiyu's mouth on the side, "How about tasting it?" ”
"It's not as good as what you make." Anything that an upright person says will be convincing, Tang Anqing smiled and accepted the praise of the public, but modesty is a virtue. said: "Speaking of which, the chestnuts here are more delicious, and with some boiled goat's milk in them, the natural taste is sweeter." But speaking of which, I haven't drunk goat's milk for a long time, and I heard that there seem to be a few water cows raised in Zhuangzi, and the nutrition of milk is relatively high. "Especially at this time, the feed is natural and pollution-free, so the milk produced is naturally free of those messy additives. It's greener than any green product at that time. Although some of the technology is a little behind, the air is much better.
Although Puyu is smart, she is still a child at heart, and she doesn't have much patience, waiting to teach two smaller words before throwing the album aside and not teaching. "Xiaoquan, let's go put together a puzzle. Brother, go play with your mother. ”
Xiao Quan is now completely what Puyu says, and when he loves to play, when he heard Puyu say this, he immediately followed Puyu over there to play puzzles. "Xiaoquan, I told you that if you forget it tomorrow, I won't let you play."
Xiao Quan pinched his fingers, looked at the album and looked at Puyu, and when he heard Puyu threaten him like this, he agreed regardless of 321. Erbao is unhappy, he is on the rise. dragged the album to the edge of the pit, holding the album, "Mother, teach me.."
Tang Anqing smiled and leaned over to carry Erbao to the kang, let him sit on his lap, and pinched his fat little face, "Look, mother, oh, you're looking at a page, then mother will teach you simple words." ”
One afternoon, Puyu and Quan'er were playing on a thick felt blanket, and when they were tired of playing, they slept on the thick felt blanket, but fortunately, the whole room was warm on the kang, and there was a charcoal basin burning in the corner. In the middle, Sister-in-law Xia came over twice, and looked at her son, who was playing well, and wanted to stay with her son for a while, but her son didn't pay attention to her, and muttered twice with some taste. Originally, I wanted to accompany my son at Tang Anqing's house, but because Tang Baiyu was not embarrassed to stay at someone's house, he only stayed for a while and went back.
The light snow outside kept falling, and it stopped for a while, intermittently, and a thin layer of snow accumulated on the ground. When it was almost dark outside, Sister-in-law Xia was urged by her mother-in-law, "Daughter-in-law, you see that your grandson has been in someone's house all the time, you can go and take a few pickled duck eggs I made before and let her family taste them." ”
"I see, mother. When I went back, I saw Puyu and asked Quan'er to read and write, mother, you have also seen Puyu's child, smart. If Quan'er followed him, maybe he could become like Puyu. Sister-in-law Xia said that she was very happy, although she opened a small shop outside, and her family was also solid, but who didn't want her son to study more, even if he was a showman, it would be a glorious lintel, and it would be better to be a daughter-in-law in the future.
"That's a good thing, but you can't play with people all the time." Granny Xia thought about it similar to Sister-in-law Xia, and her face showed a little more joy. "You see that Quan'er is not at home all day, so he can only see it twice at night, and the old woman is also thinking about it. Don't look at your father, he still gets up early in the morning to see the whole child twice. Granny Xia said with a smile.
"I know my mother, I'll go and bring Quan'er back, if Puyu doesn't come to our house, I still want Puyu and Erbao to come to our house to play." After Sister-in-law Xia finished talking to Granny Xia, she went to the kitchen and brought a bowl from the jar in the corner to take Granny Xia's salted duck eggs, and went to Tang Anqing's house.
