Chapter 703 - 544: You’re Not Quite Right
Meanwhile, in the classroom of Class (4).
As the children and parents began to head home one by one, Yang Yuxi joined hands with the other two teachers in the class, enthusiastically conducting the end-of-term thorough cleaning.
What was different this time...
This time, they not only participated personally but also invited two little angels in the classroom—Qingqing and Weiwei—to become their capable little assistants.
Despite their young age, the assisting abilities these two little ones displayed were not to be underestimated.
For example.
The picture books in the reading area and the various toys in the toy area were organized neatly by Qingqing and Weiwei with such speed that they even surpassed Yang Yuxi and the others.
And that’s not all!
They also took on the task of wiping the teacher’s desk, stretching their small bodies as much as they could, and carefully sweeping every inch of the surface with their rags. Their seriousness and concentration warmed the hearts of Yang Yuxi and her colleagues, filling them with gratification and admiration.
Xie Jianing couldn’t help but smile brightly and praised, "Wow, Qingqing and Weiwei are such capable little helpers! When you’re at home, do you often help your dad with chores too?"
Qingqing’s little head shook gently from side to side as she corrected, "Miss Xie, what you said isn’t right!"
"Oh?"
Xie Jianing’s face showed a look of curiosity and confusion.
Qingqing tightly held the rag in her little hands, wiping the lectern forcefully as she explained in a childish voice, "Actually, my sister and I aren’t helping Dad with chores; we’re doing things for ourselves. Dad works so hard to prepare meals for us every day. So we want to do our part to share some housework so he can have a bit of a break..."
"Uh-huh, sister is right!"
Weiwei’s little head nodded repeatedly like a pecking chick, fully agreeing.
In fact, the two of them were eager to help wash dishes and do laundry, but their dad told them they were too young to do those chores.
However, their dad promised that when they grow a bit older, they’ll be allowed to take on those tasks.
Upon hearing this, Xie Jianing couldn’t help but glance at the two little ones, then exchanged feelings with Yang Yuxi and Wang Wenxia, "Oh my, look at these two little ones. Their understanding is really something, making many adults pale in comparison!"
Thinking about it carefully, it’s indeed the case. In the same household, why does housework naturally become someone’s exclusive responsibility, while others are seen as ’helping’ if they participate a little?
Wang Wenxia shook her head with a wry smile and shared her experience, "Yes, when I clean the room at home and ask my husband to mop the floor, he says he’s helping me mop, as if this home isn’t his. His understanding isn’t as good as Qingqing and Weiwei, these little ones!"
Xie Jianing agreed wholeheartedly, "My dad’s the same way. Even sweeping the floor, he says he’s helping my mom sweep."
After speaking, she gently shook her head, her lips curling into a complex smile: Ha, men...
She decided that when looking for a husband in the future, she wouldn’t choose someone like her dad. She wanted someone who can both "handle the kitchen" and "handle the living room"—a versatile type of man.
Yes.
Someone like Huang Jun is her ideal partner!
Just as she was thinking, Qingqing and Weiwei were meticulously wiping the table, not leaving any corner untouched, even wiping several times over.
Seeing this, Xie Jianing gently reminded, "Qingqing, Weiwei, just one round of wiping for the lectern is enough, don’t exert too much effort."
She wasn’t trying to teach the children to slack off but understood that even if it’s cleaned thoroughly now, it would still gather dust after the school starts, needing another thorough cleaning then.
Therefore, there was no need to exert too much effort now.
Weiwei playfully blinked and said, "Teacher, I understand!"
"Okay, teacher!"
Qingqing nodded compliantly, her gaze falling on Xie Jianing, who was standing on tiptoe to wipe the window, and she cautioned anxiously, "Teacher, please be careful, don’t fall!"
Weiwei chimed in immediately, "Yes, teacher, make sure you’re steady!"
Before she finished speaking.
The two little figures dashed to the sides of the table, earnestly holding it.
Even though the table was stable and didn’t need support, seeing Qingqing and Weiwei in their supporting stance filled Xie Jianing’s heart with a surge of warmth.
Unfortunately...
This warmth lasted only for a moment before being interrupted by a sudden figure...
"Qingqing, Weiwei..."
The two little ones immediately recognized the familiar voice at once.
Ah!
It’s Dad!
Instantly, their eyes turned towards the voice source and quickly spotted Huang Jun’s figure.
"Daddy!"
Qingqing’s eyes shone with excitement, she decisively dropped her "task" and joyfully ran towards the door.
Weiwei also didn’t hesitate to leave Xie Jianing and followed Qingqing’s footsteps, joyfully running towards Huang Jun.
"Slow down, don’t fall..."
Huang Jun quickly stepped forward, opened his arms, and gently embraced the two little ones tightly.
Qingqing raised her innocent little face and curiously asked, "Daddy, why are you here?"
"Daddy has finished cooking and came specifically to invite you and the three teachers to have a meal together..." Huang Jun replied with a smile and then asked with concern, "Did you two help the teachers just now?"
