After Xi'er and Tan Jin'er left, Zhang Tan drank the tea in the cup, got up and went back to his room, telling Lao Li to go back early: "It's getting cold and I'm getting old, don't hold on, go back and warm yourself by the fire."
Lao Li: “……”
He decided that he would never give Zhang Tan tea again, he was so stupid!
At ten o'clock in the evening, the primary school teachers arranged for the remaining children to go back to the dormitory to sleep. Xiaobai was still interested, but all her best friends were gone. She looked around and found only Luo Zikang who was familiar with her, so she hugged the doll and rubbed it.
In the dormitory on the second floor, I walked around Luo Zikang's little bed and took the opportunity to chat: "Luo Zikang, your bald head doesn't have long hair?"
Luo Zikang rolled his eyes at her and disdained to talk to her.
“You’re glaring at me?”
“Go away!” Luo Zikang spoke concisely and concisely, as if saying another word to Xiaobai was a waste of life. He lay down, covered himself with a quilt, looked at the ceiling, and began to sleep.
“Luo Zikang, are you dreaming?” Xiaobai asked curiously.
Luo Zikang rolled his eyes at her again: "Silly boy!"
Xiaobai was startled, and confirmed again that Luo Zikang was still the same Luo Zikang, a complete bastard. It was impossible for her to chat with Luo Zikang, because Luo Zikang was not very smart.
"Hanhan'er~" Xiaobai muttered and walked away honestly. When she passed the door, Teacher Xiaoman told her to go home and not run into the yard. He watched her go upstairs before paying attention.
The children who came to the dormitory said: "Lie down, the teacher is going to turn off the lights~"
Suddenly, she seemed to hear a child say something, but the voice was too soft and she couldn't hear it clearly, as if it was an auditory hallucination.
She looked around the dormitory and found nothing unusual, so she turned off the light. At this time, Luo Zikang spoke: "Teacher Xiaoman~"
Teacher Xiaoman came to his bedside and whispered: "What's wrong? Everyone is going to bed."
Luo Zikang pointed to the small bed inside and said, "Zheng Zheng was talking to you just now, but you ignored her."
“Ah?” Teacher Xiaoman said in surprise, “Is Zheng Zheng talking to me? The teacher didn’t hear you. I’ll go and have a look.”
She walked inside and came to the very back of the classroom, where she saw a child lying on a small bed. Only a small head was exposed outside the quilt. His eyes were clear, but full of grievances. When he saw her coming, he sighed aggrievedly.
Called Teacher Xiaoman~
The moisture in the eye sockets is condensing...
“What’s wrong? I’m sorry, Zheng Zheng, the teacher didn’t hear you just now. I’m sorry, what do you want to say to the teacher?”
It was okay if she didn't speak. As soon as she spoke, the tears in Zheng Zheng's eyes gathered faster and fell from the corners of her eyes, one drop, two drops, three drops...
Teacher Xiaoman was in a hurry. Fortunately, Zheng Zheng was just sobbing and not crying loudly, otherwise the children would not be able to sleep.
Under the gentle comfort of Teacher Xiaoman, the little girl named Zheng Zheng finally expressed her grievances. It turned out that she was not the one who had auditory hallucinations just now. It was indeed a child who spoke, and that person was Zheng Zheng. Zheng Zheng is
She said that she wanted to hear stories, because the mother would tell the baby stories while she slept, and she couldn't fall asleep without stories.
Zheng Zheng's bed originally belonged to Xiao Yingzi, but Xiao Yingzi rarely sleeps in Little Red Horse now. Her stepfather will come to pick her up before ten o'clock in the evening.
So her bed was given to other children.
…
On the third floor, Zhang Tan heard the sound and opened the door. Xiaobai was standing at the door in her pajamas, eagerly telling him that she had forgotten the story of the City in the Sky, so she wanted to listen to it again.
“…Then come in.”
Zhang Tan led the child into the door and was about to close it when his heart moved and he looked to the other end of the corridor. Sure enough, he saw Teacher Jiang standing at the door!
The two of them smiled in unison. Zhang Tan was about to make an OK gesture, but he didn't expect Teacher Jiang to get there first!
“Boss Zhang, where are you staying? Come here quickly.” In the living room, Xiaobai was shouting when he saw that Zhang Tan didn’t follow him.
Zhang Tan closed the door, returned to the living room and said, "Why are you sitting here? Don't you know that to listen to bedtime stories, you have to lie on the bed, cover yourself with a quilt, and hold a baby?"
Xiaobai was startled: "Isn't this bad?"
“What’s wrong with this? This is the best way to listen to stories. Come on, I’ve got everything ready for you.”
After saying that, he left first. Xiaobai looked at him from behind, hesitated, climbed off the sofa, put on his little slippers, and followed him into the room.
Zhang Tan was sitting by the bed waiting for her, but saw her suddenly stop at the door.
“What’s wrong? Come in, isn’t this bed comfortable and soft?” Zhang Tan banged the bed.
Xiaobai turned to look out the window and said, "Boss Zhang, it's raining. Have you collected your clothes?"
"..." At such a warm time, you are concerned about whether you have put away your clothes and how the seeds on your head are growing. "I put them away. Don't worry. Come over quickly. Let's tell a story and then go to bed."
“Oh.” Xiaobai said, “I’m going to Kangkang.”
“Hello~”
Xiao Bai had already run to the balcony to check whether he had collected his clothes before he came back, closed the door, and climbed onto the bed. When he saw Zhang Tan was about to lie down, he immediately said warily: "Boss Zhang, where do you live?"
"Ah? It's nothing. It's mainly because it's raining and I'm a little cold. Can you let me lie on the bed and tell you a story?"
“Isn’t this good?”
“That’s okay, I’m in good health and I shouldn’t catch a cold.”
…”
Finally, Zhang Tan got his wish and lay down in bed, leaning against the bed. Xiaobai lay far away, thousands of miles away from him, as if to guard against a thief.
Zhang Tan was also speechless.
But it doesn’t matter, everything is difficult at the beginning.
“Do you really want to listen to Castle in the Sky again?” he asked.
Xiaobai opened his big clear eyes and nodded a little sheepishly, "Yeah."
“But haven’t you heard it several times? I know Cheng Cheng told you.”
“I still want to listen.”
“Would you like me to change a story? You haven’t heard it before.”
"don't want!"
Unexpectedly, Xiaobai didn’t want it. She wanted to listen to "Castle in the Sky".
“Okay, but why? Don’t you like hearing new stories?”
“嚯嚯嚯~”
Under the illumination of the desk lamp, Xiaobai's little face seemed to be even more rosy, like an apple that had been frosted in autumn.
“I have to listen! Do you want to speak or not?”
Zhang Tan: “…”
Your father, I thought you were going to say something gentle and private, but I didn’t expect you to say such a thing to me, and the atmosphere was gone!
The next day, Zhang Tan was so hungry that the meal had not been delivered yet!
He wandered to the refrigerator, hesitated for a moment, opened the refrigerator, found the snacks prepared for the children, picked out a pack of bear biscuits, tore them open and ate some first to cushion his stomach.
So hungry!
The clock hanging on the wall showed that it was already half past twelve, and the lunch that was promised to be delivered at twelve o'clock has not come yet.
Finally, after he ate two pieces of bear biscuits, there was a noise in the yard. He went to the balcony and looked out, and saw Tan Jiner arriving late with Xiaobai and Xier!
He quickly put the remaining uneaten bear biscuits into his pocket, wiped his mouth, opened the door, and welcomed the arrival of the three girls.
“I’m sorry, Boss Zhang, I’m late, you must be starving.” Tan Jiner apologized as soon as he appeared.
“It’s okay, it’s okay, I’m not hungry.”
Gulu boom boom~
My stomach is ringing.
Tan Jin'er stared at Zhang Tan's belly in surprise, then pretended not to hear and went to the restaurant with the food box.
Zhang Tan felt very embarrassed and remained silent.
“hiahiahiahia”
Xi'er and Xiaobai, the two little melons, smiled very calmly and did not give any face.
“Eat, eat, if you laugh again, there will be no food!” Zhang Tan threatened.
Tan Jin'er has already brought the prepared lunches to the table one by one, including her signature Dengying beef and her new try Bangbang chicken.
“I heard that you like to eat Bangbang Chicken, so I made a special portion. It was the first time I made it, so it took some time. Don’t worry, I didn’t put too much chili pepper. It should suit your taste. Try it.”
Tan Jin'er took out a pair of clean chopsticks and handed them to Zhang Tan.
Zhang Tan picked up a piece of Bangbang chicken, which was indeed not spicy.
He was a little surprised. When he saw the Bangbang Chicken, he subconsciously tightened his anus, thinking that he was going to suffer again, but he didn't expect that the Bangbang Chicken made by Tan Jin'er was not spicy!
He couldn’t help but ask: “Why do you think I don’t eat spicy food? If Bang Bang Chicken is not spicy, is it still called Bang Bang Chicken?”
"Ah? You, do you eat spicy food?" Tan Jin'er was startled, and then apologized: "I'm sorry, Boss Zhang, I guessed it. Xiaobai said you like to eat Bangbang Chicken, but I usually notice that you don't seem to like it.
I like spicy food, so..."
Xiaobai ran over and said confidently: "I'm so embarrassed about Boss Zhang eating spicy food. He's so good at eating spicy food. Sister Jin'er just doesn't eat spicy food. I don't know how to complain. Okay, Boss Zhang doesn't want to eat spicy food."
I like eating~”
Xi'er came over and said, "Xi'er also said it, but my sister didn't listen!"
Zhang Tan glanced at them and said to himself, "You guys go have some fun!"
PS: Quick question and answer: Why do you want to listen to "Castle in the Sky" that you have listened to several times?
