Return to 90 and start a career

"When he entered kindergarten, he learned to dress, go to the toilet, and eat by himself. As parents, we were already used to taking care of her. It was really difficult to adapt to such a situation all of a sudden."

Steve said with a smile: "You will gradually find that it is not that the children can't live without us, but that we can't live without the children."

"My child is now in a senior class and no longer likes to share his secrets with us, so cherish every moment now."

"Parents must learn to adapt to this process and let them fend for themselves." Steve has come through this stage, but every time he talks about it, he still feels a little regretful.

It is a pity that when the children were young, they did not cherish their dependence and sharing more.

When Li Manjun heard what Steve said, she realized that I was not the only one who felt uncomfortable. She gained a subtle balance in her heart and felt instantly comfortable.

"What brings you here?"

The two began to talk about business. After talking about the matter, Li Manjun received a call from Zhao Yong and asked her anxiously:

"Should we go pick up Nian Nian?"

Li Manjun looked at the time, it was half past four, and said, "Let's go together?"

Zhao Yong said yes, as if he couldn't wait, and urged her to hurry up.

Li Manjun found it funny. It seemed that her husband was more anxious than she was.

The couple arrived at the gate of the kindergarten one after another. The gate was crowded with parents who came to pick up their children from school.

Zhao Yong had no expression on his face, but his pressing movements betrayed his urgency.

After being enlightened by Steve, Li Manjun became much calmer. She squeezed her way to the front of the crowd and followed Zhao Yong.

At five o'clock, the kindergarten gate opened on time. The teacher led the children who had lined up to the school gate, and a parent came to let a child go.

Every year I put on the new schoolbag issued by the school, and eagerly raised my head and stood on tiptoes to look for my parents.

Zhao Yong, a tall man, waved his hand and said, "Nian Nian! No, it's Zhao Jianing."

"Zhao Jianing, your father is here to pick you up." The teacher called his name behind him. Nian Nian was stunned for a moment before he realized that it was him. He was carrying a small schoolbag, restrained his steps, and came to the teacher like a lady.

The teacher asked who the person in front of her was, and she said, "It's dad."

The teacher then safely handed the child into Zhao Yong's hands and waved kindly, "See you tomorrow."

Li Manjun told her daughter, "Say goodbye to the teacher."

Nian Nian obediently said to the teacher: "Goodbye, teacher."

Zhao Yong lifted his daughter up and put it on his shoulders, squeezed out the crowd, and then put her down. While holding her hand, he bent down 13 degrees and asked with concern:

"How was your day at school? Did the teacher hurt you? Did you have enough lunch? What classes did you take?"

Nian Nian originally wanted to answer, but my father asked so many questions at once that my little mind couldn't turn around, so it shut down and looked at my mother with "Huh?", confused, and didn't know where to start.

Li Manjun slapped Zhao Yong's arm and said, "Ask one by one."

Zhao Yong smiled and asked again, "Have you had enough for lunch?"

Nian Nian nodded heavily and said, "I ate two big buns, the meat is super delicious!"

"Did the teacher hurt you?"

Nian Nian shook his head, "No."

"So did you have a good time at school today?"

Nian Nian shook his head, his little brows furrowed, looking a little tangled, which made Li Manjun and Zhao Yong feel a little nervous, fearing that she would not come back tomorrow.

Niannian said: "A lot of children cried, they were so annoyed. The teacher said they could go home after school, but they still cried. Luo Tiancheng also cried later, but I didn't cry. The teacher said I was the bravest and rewarded the little red flower. "

As he said that, he pointed to the new schoolbag in his mother's hand. There were little red flowers in the bag.

However, the excitement of getting the little red flower for the first time has passed. Now I am no longer looking forward to the little red flower as much as I did at the beginning.

Li Manjun opened the zipper of her schoolbag. Inside there were two sets of school uniforms, a small red flower, the pants she brought to her daughter's kindergarten for a change today, and an empty snack box.

It looked like I didn't wet my pants, so I didn't use it.

I tell my parents every year: "Lin Fangfang told me that she won't come to the kindergarten tomorrow."

"Who is Lin Fangfang?" Zhao Yong asked curiously.

Answered every year: "Lin Fangfang is Lin Fangfang!"

Li Manjun and Zhao Yong nodded, okay, they should be female classmates in the same class. Unexpectedly, they made new friends just after entering the kindergarten.

Zhao Yong carefully tested his daughter: "Do you miss your parents today every year?"

Nian Nian nodded, "I think so! But the slide in the kindergarten is so fun~"

Okay, the requirements are not high, just think about it. Zhao Yong thought with a wry smile.

When the family of three returned home, Niannian immediately rushed over and gave Aunt Guo a big hug, saying that she missed the snacks made by her the most.

"I was eaten today by Luo Tiancheng and Lin Fangfang. Can I still take it with me tomorrow, mom?" I came to ask my mother every year.

Today, she brought half a box of cookies made by Aunt Guo to school. The cookies with dried fruits were crispy and soft, and the children loved them.

Li Manjun asked her funny: "Do you still want to go to kindergarten tomorrow?"

"Yeah!" Nian Nian felt that kindergarten was more fun than home. It would be better if the children didn't cry.

Fortunately, she still had Lin Fangfang and Luo Tiancheng to play with. She gave them biscuits, so they stopped crying and played house with her.

Li Manjun saw that her daughter didn't have any separation anxiety at all. She guessed that it might be because she was raised by a nanny, so in Nian Nian's mind, her parents were not at home during the day.

If she had to choose between playing with her aunt at home or going to kindergarten to play with the children and teachers, she would choose the latter without hesitation.

Li Manjun touched her daughter's little head and said, "Okay, let Auntie make more and share it with the teacher and other children tomorrow so that they don't cry."

"Hmm!" Nian Nian immediately ran to the kitchen and told Aunt Guo that she wanted to make cookies to take to school, and they also wanted fruit-flavored cookies.

Aunt Guo dotingly agreed, and she would do it soon.

She has ready-made baking tools and materials at home, and making snacks and desserts is what she is best at.

After dinner, Zhao Yong took his daughter to the balcony to cool down. Li Manjun and Aunt Guo put away the dishes together and stayed in the kitchen to prepare cookies with her.

Aunt Guo guessed that Li Manjun might have something to say and waited patiently.

Sure enough, Li Manjun asked her after a while: "Aunt Guo, now I go to kindergarten every year and only stay at home all day on weekends. I want to retire Auntie Zhong. From now on, you will be responsible for grocery shopping and housework. Can you accept it?"

"Of course, we can negotiate the salary."

Li Manjun looked sincere. She hoped Aunt Guo could continue to stay.

Not only because Aunt Guo is a good cook and can make snacks, but also because the time cost of changing nannies is too high, so it would be best if she can add money to keep someone.
