Chapter 428: A Day Tour of the Children's Orchard (4000/10,000)
In the orchard, in addition to these adults and children who are busy picking strawberries, there is also a very special team.
This is a team of children who gathered at the gate of the orchard under the leadership of teacher Li Qiuling.
Unable to resist Mengmeng's warm invitation, the teachers and children of Caojiazhuang Kindergarten came to play.
After Li Qiuling lined up the children at the gate of the orchard, she told them some rules for entering the orchard.
For example, fruit trees, flowers, strawberries, or equipment in the orchard must not be destroyed.
"Children, you must remember that this is Meng Meng's classmates inviting us to come over to play, we can't be unscrupulous because of this, you must eat the strawberries that we all pick, and we must not waste them."
"Also, all white and green strawberries are not allowed to be picked, do you understand?"
Li Qiuling asked them loudly.
The little ones shouted in unison, "Teacher, I understand." ”
"Okay, let's go, let's all look at our feet." Li Qiuling instructed them.
Let the little ones walk in front, and he follows in the middle, taking care of both the front and the back.
I'm afraid that one of the little ones will fall down if they are a little frizzy.
When they walked inside, Cheng Xiaolin saw them and said to her husband, "I'll watch them, you can get busy first." ”
Cao Shujie also glanced at the group of children, he saw at a glance that the crowd was cute with three pigtails, there was no way, the other children were dressed very ordinary, only his daughter was wearing a pink coat, and the little girl who was only 4 years old was stinky and beautiful.
But that's not all she has.
When Mengmeng went out in the morning, she was still yelling to be powdered.
Her mother Cheng Xiaolin lost to her, and she was still thinking that she had never been so stinky and beautiful when she was young, what kind of girl did she give birth to?
"Sister Qiu Ling." Cheng Xiaolin trotted to Li Qiuling's side.
Li Qiuling was immediately relieved when she saw her coming.
"Linlin, aren't you busy today?" Li Qiuling asked him.
Cheng Xiaolin pointed to the busy workers in the orchard, and said: "There are more people this year than in previous years, and they can take care of it, so I will be a little more relaxed." ”
Li Qiuling looked at her with some envy, but it was useless for her to think more, her husband was at that level, and this kind of thing couldn't be compared.
"Mom, hee-hee." Meng Meng shook her little hand towards Cheng Xiaolin in the crowd.
She was so happy today that both her father and mother agreed to let her little friends come to play in the orchard.
They are now ready to go into the orchard to see the flowers first, then the deer, and finally the strawberries.
"Mom, I'm going to take the kids in and play." Meng Meng shouted.
Cheng Xiaolin waved her hand to let them in: "Let's go, you follow me." ”
"Let's eat strawberries today and eat to your heart's content." Cheng Xiaolin said with a smile.
She also asked the children if they had any other favorite foods.
Little guys, you look at me, I look at you, and you're a little embarrassed to speak.
Cheng Xiaolin also saw that they were a little embarrassed, and said to them: "The children can relax, you are still the same as usual, you can play as you want." ”
"Auntie, thank you." A little girl said.
Cheng Xiaolin said happily: "It's okay, don't be so polite." ”
came to the kiwi orchard and watched the garden bloom, Cheng Xiaolin introduced them here.
Pollination has already started here.
The orchard is pollinated and supplemented by bees, and she advises the children not to provoke the bees.
"Wow, what a beautiful flower."
"Sister Mengmeng, your orchard is so big."
"There are so many people, what kind of fruit tree is this?"
"I know, I know, my mom said it's called kiwi."
A group of children croaked like ducks, and the scene was a little out of control several times.
But seeing the children standing motionless in place, talking there, Li Qiuling and Cheng Xiaolin were relieved.
"Kids, let's go in and play." Cheng Xiaolin said.
As soon as she finished speaking, a group of children were going to drill into the kiwi forest.
And the little ones shouted for a game of hide and seek.
When Li Qiuling heard this, she hurriedly shouted: "Don't run around, children, otherwise I won't be able to find you for a while." ”
It's a pity that the little ones ran into the kiwi forest early.
Fortunately, they didn't run far, so they played around here, drilled back and forth under the trees, and were not afraid of the soil in the orchard sticking to their bodies, and then went home and was scolded.
For these children, it is already commonplace.
Meng Meng is in the crowd, and he has more fun.
At this time, she also broke away from the shackles given to her by her parents at home, and spread joy everywhere like a loose little donkey.
Cheng Xiaolin and Li Qiuling were also standing in the orchard, looking at the little guy running back and forth under the tree, Li Qiuling was still a little embarrassed: "Linlin, I'm causing you trouble this time." ”
"Hey, it's okay, Sister Qiu Ling, they're all children, just let them play." Cheng Xiaolin was also very satisfied when she saw her daughter's cheerfulness.
She said: "Mengmeng usually yells at home that no one plays with her, and her father and I have been very busy lately, so it's good to have these children to play with him." ”
"You're busy with business, Mengmeng is still young now, she is not sensible, but she will definitely understand in the future."
Cheng Xiaolin thought deeply of Li Qiuling's words, she said: "Mengmeng is still very well-behaved most of the time. ”
The others who came to pick in the orchard saw more than 20 little ones playing together, and they were also happy.
Others wonder whose family these children belong to?
There are also children who come with adults who want to play when they see them, but they are persuaded by adults?
These adults think that if their children accidentally fall or bump after a while, it will not be good to touch them.
As they were talking, they suddenly saw a little girl in a pink coat and pigtails in the crowd lying on the ground while running.
This made many adults who saw this scene worry, but who knows, at this time, someone next to him shouted: "Mengmeng, get up, you roll on the ground again, be careful that I go home and beat you." ”
This reprimand made the other adults who saw this scene stunned, and they didn't understand what was going on, so they saw the little girl who had accidentally fallen to the ground just now and stood up again.
She had just fallen so hard that it seemed like nothing had happened.
This makes many parents from the city, county, or provincial capital feel incredible.
"That kid is real, she's still a girl."
"Who's to say it's not, then again, if my son had fallen, he would have cried a long time ago."
"Do you think these kids are having a good time?"
"It's different, they can only play this, my children can learn English, they can learn interest classes, they can learn piano, and the gap will get bigger and bigger in the future."
Cheng Xiaolin was not far from the one who spoke just now, she heard what the other party said, and inadvertently glanced back at the other party.
She admits that if there are no accidents, the person just said is right.
Comparatively speaking, the teaching resources of rural kindergartens are indeed very poor.
But that doesn't mean that there are few things that make them happy.
Besides, who said that her daughters must learn less than their children?
These onlookers went to pick strawberries again, Cheng Xiaolin and Li Qiuling chatted with each other, Li Qiuling also heard what those people just said, she asked Cheng Xiaolin: "Lin Lin, when you were a kindergarten teacher in the capital, what did the children over there learn?" ”
"Kindergarten kids?"
Seeing Li Qiuling nodding, Cheng Xiaolin said to him: "Sister Qiuling, this is different, the children over there do learn a lot of things, but their kindergarten tuition is also high." ”
"Like the kindergarten where I work, a child costs 50,000 or 60,000 yuan a semester."
"How much?" Li Qiuling suspected that she had misheard.
But Cheng Xiaolin said it again, fifty or sixty thousand yuan a semester.
This number made Li Qiuling feel a little suffocated.
It's too high.
All in all, she earns less than 10,000 yuan a year, but the kindergarten tuition fees of those children outside are so high.
It's no wonder they learn so much.
"It's not all like that, there are some cheaper ones, but they cost thousands of dollars a month."
"You are like us here in the city, there are also one or two thousand, three or four thousand yuan a month, and there are public kindergartens that cost a few hundred yuan a month, and the positioning is different."
"yes." Li Qiuling came back to her senses.
Seeing that the children had played enough, and whether they were dirty or not, they were all sitting on the ground to rest, Li Qiuling went over to them and told them to go inside and see the sika deer.
"Let's go, after watching the sika deer later, let's go pick strawberries and eat them." Cheng Xiaolin told them.
When they heard that they were going to pick strawberries, the children jumped up from the ground one by one.
Cheng Xiaolin smiled, after all, it was a group of children, and they couldn't control their emotions when they heard about eating.
Li Qiuling also wanted to ask her how much strawberries cost? Kindergarten pays.
But Cheng Xiaolin refused: "Sister Qiuling, this is also a little bit of our orchard's heart for the children, and let's just eat what we grow." ”
"When you leave later, you can pick some and take them back." Cheng Xiaolin said.
"I can't take it, what if it happens." Li Qiulin waved his hand in a hurry.
But Cheng Xiaolin didn't care, she said: "If you don't take it, then I'll send it to you at night." ”。
"Linlin, why are you like this."
"Sister Qiu Ling, didn't I say it? It's all grown by yourself, and you take it back to let the children and the elderly at home taste it. ”
The two argued, followed the children, and walked deeper into the orchard.
Today is the Qingming Festival, and there are really a lot of people who come over.
The further you go inside, the closer you get to the strawberry fields, the more people there are.
Li Qiuling couldn't care about reasoning with Cheng Xiaolin, she hurriedly ran to the front of the team and walked forward with the children to avoid the children from colliding with other adults.
"Who, don't run around, follow the team." Cheng Xiaolin followed them behind.
When there are disobedient people, she will also say two words to them.
When I passed by the strawberry farm, I saw so many people picking strawberries inside, and these children were very greedy.
But the teacher and Mengmeng's mother both said that after watching the sika deer in a while, they would let them come and pick strawberries to eat.
I finally came to the side of the deer park, and there were many children around here.
The big guys are watching the sika deer in the garden running back and forth.
Antler velvet has already begun to grow on the head of the male deer, and the first stubble can be cut in late June.
Cheng Xiaolin remembered that her husband also said that she wanted to get some deer blood to soak in wine to nourish her body.
But Cheng Xiaolin always felt that the smile on her husband's face was weird when he said this.
Li Qiuling also came up for the first time, she saw these sika deer in captivity in the park, and asked Cheng Xiaolin why she didn't raise more?
"Sister Qiu Ling, raising sika deer is very troublesome. It's still very occupying, otherwise it would have been popularized in our village. Cheng Xiaolin said so.
As soon as Li Qiuling heard it, she knew that what she said was true.
"This is also a helpless thing, in fact, our village is very good now, most families have planted kiwi fruit trees, even if they don't plant kiwi fruit trees, they are all raising cattle or planting pasture, which is much better than other villages."
"Besides, I have calculated this account, which can increase a lot of income for the people, how could there be these benefits in the past."
Li Qiuling looked at Cheng Xiaolin, and she said: "The big guys know in their hearts that this is brought by the two of you, and we are actually very grateful to the two of you in our hearts." ”
Cheng Xiaolin was very happy, she said: "Sister Qiuling, don't say that, everyone believes in us." ”
After looking at Meihua Road for a while, some children couldn't calm down, and their eyes kept looking at the strawberry farm.
When Cheng Xiaolin saw this scene, she shouted directly: "Children, let's go pick strawberries and eat them now." ”
When the little ones heard this, they all jumped up with joy: "Oh, I've eaten strawberries." ”
"I'm going to pick it, I'm going to pick it too."
"Sister Mengmeng, can I pick 5 strawberries?"
"Can I pick 10, I can eat 10."
"Cao Pengfei, just brag, can you still eat 10 strawberries if you're so thin?"
"You can only eat 10 if you're fat."
The little ones are arguing again.
Cheng Xiaolin was really helpless when she heard the content of their quarrel.
She took 4 large pots from the side, handed two to Li Qiuling, and she took two: "Children, the strawberries you picked are all put in the two pots of me and Teacher Li, and we will fill these 4 pots later, wash the strawberries and eat them." ”
"Linlin, how big is this? Why do I look so big? ”
The more Li Qiuling looked at it, the more she felt that something was wrong.
Cheng Xiaolin said with a smile: "Sister Qiu Ling, it's not that big, one pot can hold more than three catties." ”
Hearing her say this, Li Qiuling breathed a sigh of relief, but she said: "4 pots are 12 catties, that's a lot, these children can't eat at all." ”
"It's okay, don't worry, come to our orchard, don't eat enough." Cheng Xiaolin said.
"Let's talk about half the size, eat poor people, don't look at their young age, they really eat a lot."
She also shouted: "If you let Shujie know that I am so picky, he will have to scold me to death when he turns around." ”
"Huh!" When Li Qiuling heard Cheng Xiaolin say this, she laughed along.
