After listening to Chen Xiao's story, Mo Xin finally understood why such a smart kid would pretend to be a stupid kid.

Chen Xiao comes from a single-parent family. According to her, she has never seen her father since she can remember. When she was a child, she once asked her mother why other children had fathers but she did not. At that time, Li Jiayin told her daughter that she

My father works far away and cannot go home for the time being. The naive Xiao Chen understood with a smile that his father works far away.

But as she got older, she gradually no longer believed her mother's words. Her mother said that she worked far away. Could it be that she didn't go home for ten years after working? She guessed that her father might have passed away, but her mother

It was hard to tell herself, or maybe her parents were divorced, so she kept the matter in her heart and never asked why her father didn't come home.

And Li Jiayin is a workaholic. In order to give her daughter better living conditions, she is busy with work. She gets up early every day, cooks breakfast for her daughter and goes to work. She doesn't come home until late at night because her daughter eats at school at noon, so she doesn't need to care.

Regarding her lunch, even if she went home in the evening, she would go back to her room and continue working, neglecting to care about her daughter.

When Chen Xiao was a child, Chen Xiao was very sensible. He knew that his mother was busy at work, so he would get up in the morning, eat and go to school, and go home honestly after school in the afternoon. But as he grew up, he became unhappy. Why did his mother never care about him? In addition,

I was in adolescence at the age of 13 or 14, and I was very rebellious, so I deliberately did wrong questions and got low scores in the exam, hoping to attract my mother's attention and concern.

However, Li Jiayin, who is focused on work, does not understand her daughter's thoughts.

If she sees that she doesn't study well, she will just find a tutor for her.

From the first to the second year of junior high school, she found no less than ten tutors for her in two years, but her grades still did not improve. It was too easy for a student with good grades to pretend to be a poor student, so the previous tutors did not notice Chen Xiao.

problem until I encountered Mo Xin today.

In addition, this year is the third year of junior high school, and next year he will take the high school entrance examination and enter high school. Li Jiayin is a little anxious.

Both the first and second grades of junior high school were on campus. As soon as the third grade of junior high school started, Li Jiayin started a day school for her daughter. She wanted her to make up classes when she came home from school. She wanted to take advantage of the last year to make up for her daughter's grades so that she could get into the exam.

high school.

She still doesn't understand her daughter's thoughts.

I thought my daughter had poor grades and was partial to subjects, so I would only find a tutor for her. When I saw her eating slowly and failing to finish her homework, I would just get angry and scold her, and never care about what my daughter needs.

Chen Xiao usually has a lot of pocket money. She can tell Li Jiayin what she wants, and Li Jiayin will give her the money.

Perhaps in Li Jiayin's opinion, as long as he buys her what she wants and provides her with favorable living conditions, he cares about her.

Just like today, Mo Xin came to the house to help Chen Xiao with her homework. After she made arrangements, she went back to her room and continued working. She is truly a workaholic.

At the end, Chen Xiao raised his tearful eyes and asked in a low voice: "Teacher Mo, you won't tell my mother about this, will you?"

Mo Xin shook his head and said, "Since I promised you, I won't tell your mother."

Now it was not difficult for Mo Xin to understand why Chen Xiao pretended to be a stupid child. What bad intentions could she have? She just wanted her mother to care about her.

Since Chen Xiao is not partial to science, there is no need for him to keep doing this part-time job. Mo Xin cannot deceive others, nor can he deceive himself. Although he promised Chen Xiao not to deliberately do wrong questions on her,

He told her, but he didn't promise her that he would continue to be her tutor.

Chen Xiao finished his homework and was reading a book while Mo Xinze and Zhao Hongyan sent a message.

Because when Chen Xiao explained the reason, Zhao Hongyan sent an angry expression and said: Big pig head, are you in class?

Mo Xin was not in a hurry to reply to the message, but waited for Chen Xiao to finish speaking before replying: That's right.

Then I sent this sentence: Do you think single-parent families have a great impact on children?

After hearing Chen Xiao's story, he felt confused and wanted to find someone to talk to.

Zhao Hongyan:??

Zhao Hongyan: Is the child you are teaching a single-parent family?

Mo Xin: Probably so.

He thought for a while and briefly described the incident. Zhao Hongyan didn't reply for a long time. Mo Xin put down his phone and opened Chen Xiao's physics textbook.

The time soon reached nine o'clock. The sound of closing the door suddenly sounded in the quiet living room. Mo Xin looked up and saw that it was Li Jiayin walking out of the room.

"Have you finished the class?"

Mo Xin was a little embarrassed, but finally nodded.

Li Jiayin gave him a slight smile, and then asked her daughter: "Xiaoxiao, can you understand what Teacher Mo said?"

Chen Xiao nodded dullly and said nothing.

Li Jiayin said to Mo Xin again: "This child has not been talkative since he was a child. Let Xiao Mo worry about it."

"No, Xiaoxiao is very obedient and has good absorption ability. Her study should not be a problem."

Li Jiayin said helplessly: "If she could understand the lectures, she wouldn't have failed three of the four high school entrance examination subjects."

Mo Xin was speechless and promised Chen Xiao not to tell her about this. He couldn't go back on his promise in front of Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao quietly looked at Mo Xin with a worried expression, fearing that he would tell him that he was pretending to be stupid. Mo Xin smiled back to reassure her.

"Sister Li, it's getting late, so I'll go back first."

Mo Xin said goodbye. It was already nine o'clock, and the little girl had to go to school tomorrow, and as an orphan and a widower, it was not convenient for him to stay late.

"Okay, I'll take you out."

"No, no, no, I know the way."

"It's okay. You need to brush your face at the door, otherwise you won't be able to get out. Xiaoxiao, don't say goodbye to Teacher Mo yet."

"...Goodbye, Teacher Mo."

"Goodbye with a smile."

Mo Xin watched Chen Xiao raise his little hand and also said hello.

After taking the elevator downstairs, Mo Xin didn't know what to say about what had just happened. Li Jiayin suddenly said: "I sent today's salary to your mobile phone, please check it."

Mo Xin originally wanted to refuse, saying that he was working as a tutor to teach children, and he discovered some amazing facts. He only worked there for two hours and did nothing. How could he have the nerve to accept the money? But refusing would mean that

When he wanted to tell the reason, he didn't want to be someone who went back on his word and betrayed the little girl.

"Sister Li, can you ask me some personal questions?" Mo Xin said softly.

He felt that a child's education should start from his parents. Chen Xiao was obviously a very smart little girl, but in order to make her mother care about her, she had to pretend to be a stupid child. This was really pitiful. He planned to do something.

I don't know, but tapping from the side is still possible.

"Hmm? Just ask."

Mo Xin took a look around the community and found a bench under a streetlight. He pointed to the bench and said, "Shall we sit down?"

Li Jiayin naturally had no objection. She was curious as to why Mo Xin, as a student's tutor, would ask her personal questions. However, she had nothing to be ashamed of, so she simply let him ask.

The two sat down on the bench, one at each end, half a meter apart.

"Sister Li, why didn't you see your husband?"
