"Look at you, there is sand on your mouth and face. Stop licking it and close your mouth tightly."
Zhang Tan was wiping the sand off Xi'er's face. She had been digging for sand just now and had a lot of it on her hands. A fart made her cover her mouth in a hurry and it got all over her face.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu~~~"
Xi'er stood obediently in front of Zhang Tan and let him wipe his face with a tissue. Her big pure eyes stared at his face non-stop, her little face full of innocence.
Zhang Tan smiled and said, "You see how shy I am."
Xi'er hiahia laughed and said, "Boss Zhang, you are a good person."
"Huh? What's the matter?" Zhang Tan was a little surprised. After Xiao Bai, he was issued a good person card again.
Xi'er said happily: "My sister often wipes my face, and you are the second one."
Zhang Tan: "Just because I wipe your face, do you think I'm a good person?"
Xi'er nodded. Her judgment standard is very simple, but very practical. So far, except for her sister, no one has touched her little face, and even fewer people care about her. Wherever she goes, she is always disliked by others.
It's pitiful that children think she is stupid and adults think she is uneducated.
Zhang Tan said: "Xi'er is so cute, everyone will like you..."
"Boss Zhang, do you like me?" Xi'er's eyes were sparkling. It was impossible for a person to say that he didn't like me at this time, not to mention that Zhang Tan said it from the bottom of his heart.
"Of course I like you. A cute kid should be like you."
Children should not be like Xiaobai. Xiaobai thinks too much and knows more than her peers. If she is in a complete and happy family, then she will be a good child in the eyes of her parents.
But unfortunately, she lives in an incomplete home and the family is relatively difficult. This means that she is destined to have a harder life than other children because she is too sensible.
Children shouldn't be like Liliu, who is the biggest headache for parents.
Xi'er is the most ideal child. She is innocent, simple, has no small thoughts, and says whatever she thinks. It is easy for adults to know her thoughts and know how to take care of her. She will not be wronged if adults don't worry about her.
She is also very independent and can have fun on her own. She loves to laugh and is strong. She is not sad when other children dislike her, let alone feels relieved. She only pretends to be happy in her heart.
As soon as Zhang Tan finished speaking, he suddenly felt a little wet on his face. He had been secretly kissed!
Xi'er stood up on her little feet and kissed him. Immediately she laughed, as if she had done something great.
"Boss Zhang, I like you too, hiahiahia."
"Shoho~~" Xiaobai on the side widened his eyes and couldn't help but use vulgar words.
Liuliu fanned the flames almost instinctively, and immediately whispered: "Xiaobai, what should you do? Xi'er has robbed your boss Zhang."
Zhang Tan didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Xi'er. He wiped the saliva on his face and said, "Okay, I've wiped it clean for you. Xiaobai and Liuliu, you all should also wash your hands. Stop digging sand and come back with me."
Xi'er raised her little face, struck while the iron was hot, and asked Boss Zhang, could she hold his hand?
So, Xi'er not only kissed Zhang Tan, but also held his hand.
Xiaobai followed behind and stared.
Behind him, Luoliu was muttering: "Xiaobai, you are such a pathetic duck~"
Early the next morning, Zhang Tan got up amidst the crow of chickens, went for a run in the yard, washed himself, had breakfast, and went to work. When he was leaving, Aunt Huang rushed over.
"Zhang Tan, I'll spare you 2 minutes." She handed him a list.
"This is the school purchase list I made. Take a look at it when you have time. I'll wait for your reply."
Zhang Tan glanced at it and saw that there were many items. He put it in his bag and said, "I'll take a look at it in the morning and I'll get back to you then."
"Okay, go to work and drive carefully."
Watched Zhang Tan go.
"Afen, why are you here so early today?"
When Aunt Huang heard the sound, she looked over and saw that it was Lao Li who lived in the sentry box.
"I came here specifically to find Zhang Tan. This is for you. I was just looking for you."
She gave Lao Li a lunch box.
"What?"
"The breakfast I brought you."
"Why did you bring me breakfast?"
"I made a little extra this morning. I thought you might not have eaten it, so I brought it to you."
"Thanks."
"Why are we still so polite?"
The two have lived in the village in the city for thirty or forty years and have known each other for thirty or forty years. Lao Li has never been married and has no children. He has a small two-story house in the village, but he would rather live in the Little Red Horse Academy.
In the small room of the sentry box, although it is small, it is lively, lively and comfortable.
"Is it urgent to find Zhang Tan?" Lao Li asked casually.
Aunt Huang stood chatting with him: "He wanted to add some facilities to the garden, so I made a list for him."
"Add facilities?"
"Yes, he thinks the garden is too empty and the children can only dig sand often."
"Hey, that's a good thing. It seems like he wants to run Little Red Horse seriously."
"Did you see it?"
"I can tell. During the summer, several waves of businessmen came to buy land. I was afraid that you would think too much, so I didn't tell you."
Aunt Huang really didn't know about this, so she asked curiously: "What happened next? Didn't we reach an agreement?"
"I don't know the exact information, but these people often come to chat with me. One of them is a man named Mr. Mei. He has been here three times and I have let him in. According to him, he and Zhang Tan have already negotiated a price.
, but Zhang Tan didn’t sell it in the end.”
"When did it happen?"
"About September."
"Why doesn't Zhang Tan sell it again?"
Because she already knew the final answer, Aunt Huang was not in a hurry, she was just curious.
If she had known this news at first, she would have been furious.
She would definitely be the first to object to the sale of Little Red Pony Academy.
However, she really had no confidence that she could convince Zhang Tan not to sell it. This prime location could be sold for a sky-high price, and she would not have to struggle for the rest of her life. There were really not many people who could resist such temptation.
"I don't know the reason, and I haven't asked. Do you still remember the night when Xiaobai came to the academy barefoot? The time when she cried very pitifully."
Although she spoke in general terms, Aunt Huang naturally knew which time she was talking about, which was the night when Xiaobai's aunt planned to let her leave the kindergarten, but Xiaobai refused and ran to see Zhang Tan crying.
"Remember."
"That was the night before Mr. Mei came. The next day he said there was no chance and never came again."
Aunt Huang and Lao Li chatted for a while, then returned to the academy building, sorted out the picture books, and then took the broom out to sweep away the fallen leaves in the yard.
There was an autumn rain last night, and the sycamore and maple trees in the yard dropped many leaves. The leaves fluttering on the ground held crystal drops of water. When you walked through them, the soles and toes of your shoes got wet.
Lao Li also came to help.
It took the two of them more than an hour to sweep away the fallen leaves, and Aunt Huang focused on the sand pit again.
"These naughty kids dug the sand pit like this and dug right in." Aunt Huang said funny.
I saw a deep pit dug in the sand pit, in the shape of an inverted pyramid, about half a meter deep.
Not far away, there was a pile of sand. As you can imagine, the children moved the sand from the pit there and piled it out.
"How dangerous." Lao Li said. He went to the building to find a shovel and filled up the sand pit.
The two of them worked together to not only fill the deep hole, but also level the sand pit.
After working hard all morning, he was tired but at ease. Zhang Tan was able to resist the temptation not to sell Little Red Horse. He also gave money to buy facilities and planned to run it for a long time. They couldn't help much and could only do their best to run Little Red Horse.
