The Cub’s Father Pretends to Be Poor Everyday

Chapter 5

Several other children also found Xie Yishu’s work card and stared at it without blinking.

“Uncle,” Tang Tang, a small girl, pointed at Xie Yishu’s work card. “You have the same card as Teacher in Little Mushroom Class.”

“Teacher Zhang in the Little Carrot class also has it.” “There is also Teacher Wang in the Little Cauliflower class! She also has it!”

Several children tweeted, and soon realized that the teachers of Yunshan Kindergarten all had such a work card.

The little guys were silent.

They looked at each other and the little boy named Wangchao carefully ask: “Uncle, are you also our kindergarten teacher?”

Their small guilty expressions after doing terrible things amused Xie Yishu. He nodded with a suppressed smile.

“Ms. Miao Miao has gone back to District 17. I will take her class and be your nursery teacher.”

The little kids stifled.

They are excited to leave the school, and once their little issues are resolved, they realized that their original plan of “beg strangers to take themselves out of the kindergarten” was wrong.

They did something wrong and the teacher caught them right away… The four children all lowered their heads, making the one child who was still raising his head stand out.

Bo Zai stared at the photo on the work card, and the chubby face flushed.

It really seems!

He’s not imagining it!

The children’s hair look so fluffy and soft.

Xie Yishu couldn’t hold back, rubbing their little heads one by one, and went to the little chubby kid, and gently pinch his cheek.

Plum cheek, feel great!

Xie Yishu resisted the urge to squeeze a few more times, and took back his hand. He said to the children, “You can’t do this next time. If you have any concerns, you should tell the teacher’s first.”

The other kids and Wangchao nodded obediently.

Xie Yishu smiled at them and said gently: “Let’s go back to the classroom, other children should also be in the classroom.”

He extended his hand towards them, a chubby hand slipping through the other four small hands before immediately grasping it.

Bo Zai clenched Xie Yishu’s fingers tightly, and the chubby face turned red: “Okay!”

Wangchao and the other kids did not notice the strangeness in their friend action and they hold each other hands and walk together.

Bo Zai other hand was hold by Tang Tang, walking with his short legs, and following Xie Yishu. When he raised his head, he could see Xie Yishu’s profile.

The profile is also like the picture that his father showed him.

Bo Zai’s heart thumped loudly.

He wanted to ask Xie Yishu if he was his mother, his mouth opened, and eventually he lowered his chubby face.

He will go back and look at his mother’s picture again.

He was scared of recognizing the wrong person once again.

The small mushroom class is on the west side of the first floor.

When Xie Yishu took the children to the classroom, there were already many children in the classroom.

Teacher Ge was disinfecting the crayons that he would use in the class later and when Xie Yishu saw this, he also help to disinfect the crayon.

Ge Qing saw him, stopped his movements, and smiled at him: “I heard from the headmaster that you are the new nursery teacher? My name is Ge Qing, and we will be partners in the future.”

“My name is Xie Yishu.” Xie Yishu raises his eyebrows. “Please give me advice in the future.”

He is gentle, and his laughter easily arouses the goodwill of others. “I will introduce you to the children in our little mushroom class first,” Ge Qing said, assuaging his fears that “he may not get along well with the new colleague.”

“The one over there, is called Chen Li, he is the class monitor of our little mushroom class. He is very sensible and usually takes care of other children. When he is here, I and Miao Miao can felt relieved.”

“The two kids that is building blocks next to him are Zhang Zixuan, the one  in a red coat, and Zhang Zihao in a blue coat. They are identical twins. Zhang Zixuan is the older brother. There is a small mole under his eyes.”

“Xiao Yi is the name of the child who is reading a picture book. He is more introverted than other children and cries more easily. This kid is much better now than when he first started kindergarten, but we still need to be gentler when talking to him…”

Xie Yishu listened carefully to Ge Qing’s introduction and tried to remember the name and personality of each child. He noticed the  gaze cast from the distance.

The little boy named Bo Zai was looking at him while hiding behind the toy mecha.

When Bo Zai noticed that he was looking at him, he squatted down and covers his eyes as if he was hiding himself.

 Xie Yishu was amused by him. Ge Qing followed his gaze and saw the little fat cub covering his eyes and pretending to be invinsible. He introduced: “He called Bo Zai, he just transferred to our little mushroom class last month. He…”

Ge Qing stopped and hesitated.

Xie Yishu looked at him and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Ge Qing looked around. There were no children. He lowered his throat and said in a voice that only he and Xie Yishu could hear: “He is very pitiful. He is a child of a single parent family, and he has only one father.”

“His father is a mechanic. He seemed to owe a lot of money outside and that is why they constantly on the move. Thus, because of it, he transferred to our Yunshan kindergarten.”

“Teacher Xie, you see that he is shorter and fatter than other children. It is probably because the family can’t afford to buy children’s nutrient solution and can only let him eat other things.”

Ge Qing looked at the chubby cub behind the toy mech, and his eyes were full of pity. “He is the only one in Little Mushroom Class that comes from sing-parent family. That is why me and Miao Miao rarely bring up the topic of “mother” in front of the children, he is too young…”

Xie Yishu nodded understandingly.

He looked at the chubby kid that is squatting behind the mecha, and remembered his childhood.

 At that time, the orphanage had insufficient funds, and they rarely drank the nutrient solution. So, they are shorter than the other children and look malnourished.

Because they do not have parents, he and his siblings in the orphanage were often laughed at by children of the same age. Later, he and Jiang Zhou learned a few tricks to fight using light brain, and no one dared to bully them again.

 Thinking of the past, and then looking at the chubby cubs in the distance, Xie Yishu’s tone softened: “I know, thank you Teacher Ge.”

Before the class started, Xie Yishu introduced himself to the children.

Because he has many younger brothers and sisters, Xie Yishu is very good at dealing with children. After one art lesson, he was called as “Shu Shu teacher” by the little guys.

In the art class, Xie Yishu also noticed that Bo Zai had been watching him.

 Other children will also look at him, and when they encounter difficulties, they will look at him and raise their hands to call him to help. But the little fat cub was different. He just looked at him, and when Xie Yishu guessed whether the other party needed his help, and when he was ready to go and help the kid, he would lower his head and continue painting..

There is a half-hour break between classes.

Xie Yishu took a few children who needed to use the restroom. He returned and poured warm water for the children who wanted it. He called and warns at the little boys who were playing, then, he turned and lean his back at the wall near him.them. After a brief break, he discovered that the little chubby cub was still drawing.

Xie Yishu walked over and sat down beside him.

Bo Zai held the crayon in his hand, and hummed attentively, without raising his head, and did not notice the teacher coming.

It wasn’t until Tang Tang shouted “Mr. Shu Shu” that Bo Zai was surprised that Teacher Xie was sitting beside him.

Subconsciously, he straightened his back, took a deep breath, and try to flatten his belly.

Xie Yishu waved towards the little girl, waited for the little girl to bounce away, and turned to look at the cub with a tight, chubby face, tried hard to maintain his sitting posture, and smiled at him: “Bo Zai, what are you painting?” “

He looked at the picture of the little fat boy and guessed that the little guy might be painting a house, a wall, and two windows.

Unexpectedly, Bo Zai answered seriously: “I am painting my mother.”

Xie Yishu didn’t react for a while.

Bo Zai looked at Xie Yishu, who was stunned, and with a flash of inspiration, took pictures of the drawing and said suggestively: “Bo Zai’s mother has white skin and big eyes.”
