"Laugh at you stupid!" Lin Zhan raised his hand and lightly tapped her forehead, and there was more smile in his eyes than usual.

Xu Xiaoxi frowned, rubbed her forehead, and was puzzled, "Why am I stupid?" Am I afraid that the two children will not learn well and delay their time in vain? ”

If it's a mother, it doesn't matter, but she's a stepmother.

It has always been difficult to be a stepmother, that is, these two children are better behaved than other children, so her life is better, but she can't act arbitrarily just because they like her.

And even if it was his own birth, he was invited by the master at first glance, and he was actually quite apprehensive in his heart.

After thinking about it, Xu Xiaoxi said again, "After all, who doesn't want their own children to be promising, and who doesn't have a wish in their hearts to see their son Jackie Chan and their daughter to become a phoenix?" ”

"And Xiaocheng'er is looking forward to studying, and now he has finally read it, in case the master says that he has not studied well, how can I tell him?"

Xiao Cheng'er has a strong self-esteem, and she is afraid that this child will be disappointed in herself.

And she was afraid to invite her parents when she was a child, and now she is the parent who is invited, and she has a headache when she thinks about it.

"Cheng'er is very smart, you don't need to worry about Li Xuanqing reprimanding him."

Hearing Lin Zhan say this, Xu Xiaoxi raised her eyes and looked at Lin Zhan, "Really?" ”

"Really!" Lin Zhan smiled and nodded, "Last time we went to Furui Restaurant for dinner, I heard Li Xuanqing talk about it on the way, he said that Cheng'er is smart, he can read a little, Xiaoshan and Xiaolier are still reading and writing, and he is already familiar with poetry and general meaning." ”

"Xiaocheng is so powerful?" Xu Xiaoxi had a surprised expression on her face.

Lin Zhan nodded again.

While Xu Xiaoxi was happy for Xiaocheng'er, a trace of apology flashed in her eyes, "It's also my fault, I'm only busy with the restaurant during this time, and I don't have time to take care of the children, and I don't even know how Xiaocheng'er is learning." ”

It seemed that the Chinese New Year was approaching, and they had been reading for a long time, but she had never asked them about their homework.

Once in a while, sharing dinner with them can make both children happy for a long time.

Lin Zhan sat beside her, put one hand around her shoulder, and let her lean on his body.

"Xiaoxi, you have done well enough, if it weren't for you, these two children would still be living with me in the village without food and clothing, it is you who have changed them and me."

Xu Xiaoxi didn't deny that this was his own credit, but he just didn't feel satisfied.

In the past, she had no children, and she managed a huge family kitchen alone, and firmly believed that even after she got married and had children, she would be able to take care of her career and children, and she would never sacrifice her career because of her children, nor would she neglect her children because of her career.

But now, she finds it really difficult to juggle her career and children.

I can take care of the head, but I can't take care of the tail, but fortunately, Xiaocheng'er and Xiaoli'er are very well-behaved, they are very tolerant of their mother, who is not their mother, otherwise the family would have been chaotic a long time ago.

At this time, Lin Zhan's voice sounded again, "Xiao Xi, Cheng'er and Xiao Li'er are not your responsibility alone, I am their father, if they learn badly, it is also me, the father, who did not let them learn well." ”

Xu Xiaoxi was very moved when she heard this, yes, the child is the common responsibility of the father and mother, if the child is not taught well, it is also to blame both parties, not unilaterally accusing which person.

In this year, Lin Zhan still has such an awareness, which makes Xu Xiaoxi feel very surprised, and at the same time, he also feels that the decision he made at the beginning was correct.

She leaned on Lin Zhan with her whole body relaxed, and said in a low voice, "In the future, I won't worry about being alone like this, I will tell you and discuss with you." ”

Lin Zhan said, "Xiaoxi, you have to remember that my husband is not an ornament!"

Xu Xiaoxi just wanted to nod, but suddenly said, "Then you are not allowed to hide anything from me, you have to tell me, don't bear it alone." ”

"Good!" Lin Zhan's voice was full of laughter.

——

The next day, Xu Xiaoxi deliberately made time, bought some things, and went to Li Xuanqing's house with Lin Zhan.

Li Xuanqing saw that the two of them were so cautious, and his expression looked much better.

There was a stove in the house and it was extra warm as soon as you entered.

Xu Xiaoxi remembered that there was no stove between the rooms, and the stove looked very new at first glance, obviously just bought.

Because these three children are studying here, Li Xuanqing is also painstaking.

"You don't have to worry, it's not a bad thing for me to call you here today, it's mainly to discuss the matter of Lin Yucheng with you."

Hearing Li Xuanqing say this, Xu Xiaoxi was a little surprised and said, "What's wrong with Cheng'er?" ”

Li Xuanqing said, "Lin Yucheng is very smart, I think he can go to the school now, as for Lin Yuli and Zhao Xiaoshan to go to the school next year, I don't know if the two of you can agree?" ”

Xu Xiaoxi remembered that Li Xuanqing said before that the three children were too young, and if they entered the school at that time, they would not be able to keep up with the process.

As a result, he changed his mind in such a short period of time, which shows how satisfied he is with Xiaocheng'er!

"We naturally agree on this matter, it's just a matter of going to school, and we may have to trouble you!" Xu Xiaoxi said with a weak heart.

The silver is not a problem, the problem is that she doesn't understand the rules of the school, if Li Xuanqing can help with this, then they can rest assured.

"Since I proposed it, then this matter will naturally be handled by me!"

Saying that, Li Xuanqing said again, "After this matter is completed, Lin Yucheng has to go to school with me every day, and Lin Yuli and Zhao Xiaoshan still come to class at the same time as usual. ”

When the words fell, Xu Xiaoxi immediately agreed, "No problem, Cheng'er is sincere in studying, he will be willing." ”

Li Xuanqing smiled, and had no objection to Lin Yucheng's determination.

When Lin Zhan was leaving, he took out a brocade bag and handed it to Li Xuanqing with both hands.

"Li Gongzi, the matter of the city is entrusted to you!"

Lin Zhan's attitude was very respectful, and Li Xuanqing did not refuse, and took the silver, but after taking it, he found that it was heavy inside.

In this way, I'm afraid it looks like a hundred taels.

Li Xuanqing hurriedly said, "Young Master Lin, the cost of going to school is not as much as this amount of silver. ”

Lin Zhan said sincerely, "I know that Li Gongzi really wants his three children to study, and he cares about the feelings of his fellow villagers, so he doesn't care about money. ”

"This kindness, my wife and I are grateful, a little heart, and ask the son to accept it."

The three children are very happy to come here to study, there is something to eat when they are hungry, a stove to keep warm when it is cold, and it feels like they are at home.

As for the ten taels of silver that Xu Xiaoxi gave every month, I don't know how much was spent on these three children.

Such a kind person, even Lin Zhan, a man, felt that he couldn't let him suffer.

So when he came just now, Xu Xiaoxi personally went to the store to select clothes for him, and Lin Zhan was not jealous at all.

Because Li Xuanqing's character is too valuable, it is really rare!

When Li Xuanqing saw Lin Zhan like this, he didn't pretend to excuse himself.
