Chapter Ninety-Three: Be bold and say no to what you don't like
"Baby, playing here alone?" Li Zhiting sat next to Nini and picked up a building block casually.
"No play, I'll clean up." Nini's voice was muffled.
"Is there anything you can tell Dad?"
“......”
There was a silence in response, and Nini continued to pick up the toys on the floor and put them back in the box one by one.
After waiting for a while, Li Zhiting found that tears were slipping from the corners of Nini's eyes who had been buried in packing up the toys.
Li Zhiting pursed his lips, stopped talking, and silently accompanied Nini to help her clean up.
After a minute, Nini finally spoke.
"Daddy......"
"Huh?" Li Zhiting looked at Nini gently and encouragingly.
"Am I being stingy?" Nini tugged at the hem of her skirt, big tears falling down, and her voice trembled a little.
"How so? We Nini have always been the most generous. Li Zhiting half-knelt and gently hugged Nini into his arms.
Feeling her father's warm embrace, Nini finally couldn't help crying, her little body couldn't stop shaking, buried in Li Zhiting's shoulder and cried while crying: "But I see children playing with my toys, I feel very uncomfortable, I don't want them to play." ”
"Did you tell them at the moment that they weren't allowed to play?" Li Zhiting asked gently.
"No...... They all had a great time, I don't know how to put it. Nini's voice buzzed.
"Dad never thought that Nini was stingy, but thought that Nini was a very generous child." Li Zhiting gently touched Nini's head and soothed: "You don't want them to play, but you still let them play in the end, right?" ”
“......”
"And, the reason Nini is uncomfortable, Dad guesses not because they played with your toy, but because they played with your toy without your consent."
"Hmm...... They played on their own, without my permission. Nini said aggrievedly.
"And if they had your consent beforehand, would you play with them?"
"I don't know...... Nini whispered, "I had to clean up the toys after playing, they didn't clean them up, so Nini didn't want to play with them either." ”
"You see, Nini didn't let them play because she was stingy, but they played with your stuff without your consent and didn't clean it up, so Nini doesn't have to blame herself, you're not wrong." Li Zhiting's gentle voice was seductive, and Nini's expression gradually relaxed.
"Nini, do you remember what Dad said during dinner?"
"Hmm." Nini replied in a low voice.
"Your stuff is yours, Dad won't take your stuff casually, and others can't take your stuff casually, of course, unless you take the initiative to share it with others." Li Zhiting still maintained a half-kneeling posture and hugged Nini, "Dad hopes that Nini is a person who is good at sharing, but Dad respects Nini's opinion more." For a child who breaks the rules, you can warn him! Or ask your dad to help you solve it, you don't need to sulk yourself, you know? ”
"Got it, Dad."
"Nini had a great performance today! Don't say no to things you don't like! ”
"Really? Will they dislike me, Sister Yeon-hee? Nini was still a little worried.
"Don't worry about them, not everyone is qualified to be your good friend." Li Zhiting patted Nini on the back, "Dad will help you clean up together, and then go to bed early." ”
"Hmm!" Nini finally smiled again.
Early the next morning, Nini found the housekeeper before going out.
"Grandpa Butler." Nini was carrying a schoolbag, and her little face was full of seriousness.
"What's wrong with Miss?" The housekeeper wondered.
"If there are still children who come to play with Sister Yeon-hee today, I don't want them to touch my toys." Nini was very serious and her thoughts were very clear.
It's not that she doesn't allow Yeon-hee to have friends to play with, but she doesn't touch her things while playing.
As soon as Nini's words came out, the housekeeper suddenly realized, "Nini was angry yesterday because of this?" They played with your toys at Taole Castle? ”
"Hmm." Nini nodded solemnly, quite like a little adult, "And I didn't clean up after playing." ”
This is the first time since the housekeeper met Nini that he found that Nini has such a strong sense of defense for her own things, "I know, don't worry, Miss." ”
Hearing the housekeeper's promise, Nini was relieved to go to school.
Seeing Nini leave, the housekeeper just wanted to leave, when he found a small figure standing in the corner.
"Yeon-hee, why are you here?" The butler was slightly surprised and strode forward.
"Grandpa......" Yeon-hee hung her head, still holding Princess Aisha's doll in her hand, "I came to look for the doll's hand, and her hand is gone." ”
Yeon-hee said as she lifted Princess Aisha up, and the butler saw that the beautiful Princess Aisha doll had disappeared with one of her right hands, and her blue dress was a little wrinkled.
The joints of this Barbie doll are all moving, and it is normal to lose parts, but ......
"Yeon-hee, why did you come to the third floor to find it? Didn't Grandpa say you couldn't come to the third floor? The butler frowned, "You have been here secretly?" ”
Yeon-hee hung her head and suddenly hugged Aisha back into her arms with a frightened look, "Grandpa, I didn't come up on purpose. ”
"You are not allowed to come up in the future, if you leave something on the third floor, the maid will find it if you clean it." The housekeeper took Yeon-hee's hand and went downstairs.
"Oh......"
"Our family is small, what toys do you play with if you don't pack them up and throw them there, you can still find them next time you play, but this place is very big, if you don't develop the habit of tidying up well, you really can't find it if you lose it." The housekeeper remembered what Nini had said just now, and he was taking this opportunity to warn Yanxi.
"......" Yanxi didn't respond obediently as he expected, but was silent for a few seconds and then whispered aggrievedly: "Grandpa, did Yanxi do something wrong, Sister Nini doesn't like me anymore?" ”
The housekeeper paused and looked at Yeon-hee, who was only thigh-high herself, "Why do you think that?" ”
"I just heard what Nini's sister said to her grandfather, and my sister doesn't like me playing with her toys." Yeon-hee looked up and looked at the housekeeper pitifully.
"Yeon-hee, you misunderstood what Sister Nini meant." The housekeeper squatted down, looked at Yeon-hee seriously and explained, "It's not that Sister Nini doesn't like you to play with her toys, but we didn't take her toys before we moved them yesterday. ”
Yeon-hee didn't look at the housekeeper's eyes, her eyes drooped, and her long eyelashes trembled, "But there is a maid at home, and the maid will clean it up." ”
It's all cleaned up by my mother at home, and there are maids here, why should she clean up?
