King’s House Kindergarten

That's what it means to be happy and sad.

Shen Yue's easy-going temperament is something that everyone in the Pingyuan Palace can see. For so long, Zhuo Yuan seems to have never met Shen Yue when he was angry.

In addition, Shen Yue has always been patient with children, and has never spoken loudly to children.

Babies are self-willed, angry, and do wrong things, and Shen Yue also follows suit.

Soothe your emotions first, and wait until the children are soothed before you start reasoning with each other. Even if he is reasonable, he is half-squatting, and he is at the same height as the child, and he speaks in a warm, soft voice, not mixed with intimidation or threats.

Therefore, Zhuo Yuan always felt that Shen Yue would not be angry.

But this time, he seems to have done a bit too much, and also miscalculated the situation.

——Since he "stung" Shen Yue last time, Shen Yue seems... really angry with him.

It's just that Shen Yue has a good temper. Even if she is really angry with him, she doesn't make a fuss or get angry. She just takes it lightly.

right! She has been ignoring him for a long time since he made a fuss last time.

It's not at all like before, when he talked to her, she looked at him with sweaty eyes and smiled, and answered him gently.

Whenever she has time now, she is with several children. He just stepped forward on purpose, if he wanted to get closer, she would leave with excuses.

Not to mention being alone with him.

Sometimes he would like to talk to her a few more times for some reason, but most of her eyes were light, and after a few words, they avoided the important things and did the other things lightly.

He even took Xiaozhi to the front and asked her if she wanted to ride a horse or not. She looked at Xiaozhi and smiled, but said that she promised Xiaoba to go with her, let's not wait...

Zhuo Yuan suddenly felt that he was like a big bear child who was used to being treated gently by Shen Yue.

But no matter how the children in the house make trouble, she is gentle and tolerant, and even a troublemaker like Xiao Wu, she is not angry.

But she remembered his "disturbance" so clearly.

In the carriage, Zhuo Yuan leaned against the carriage window and sighed.

The children next to him all went to play with Zhuo Xin and Shen Yue, and only Ah Si accompanied him in the carriage by reading books.

"What's wrong with you, Uncle Six?" Ah Si saw that he was in a bad mood for a few days.

Zhuo Yuan finally didn't shy away, "I'm angry with me. She even ignored me when I took Xiao Shima to find her. This time, I'm really angry..."

Ah Si looked at him and thought, it's strange that Ah Yue is not angry when you are so noisy...

Suddenly, he paused again, and said in surprise, "Ayue...haven't you been angry with you before?"

Literally, how is this possible?

You are stealing from relatives and flirting with others. Sixth uncle, you are so disgusting, how could Ayue not be angry with you?

Zhuo Yuan: "..."

Seeing Zhuo Yuan's speechless expression, A Si sighed, "A Yue's temper is really good."

Zhuo Yuan said quietly, "Little Asi, what should Uncle Six do?"

Ah Si couldn't help complaining, "How do I know what to do? It's Uncle Six that you want to marry A Yue, but it's not that I want to marry A Yue..."

"..." There seems to be some truth, but Zhuo Yuan couldn't refute it for a while.

Ah Si paused for a while, and suddenly hesitantly said, "Uncle Liu, shouldn't you kill Aunt Liu?"

Ah Si is half sympathetic, half nervously looking at him.

"How is that possible!" Zhuo Yuan snorted confidently.

Just before they finished speaking, they heard the noise and frolic outside the carriage, and the two of them turned to look outside the carriage at the same time.

Not far away, Wu and Suisui came back on a pony.

After walking for a few days on the way back to Beijing, Xiao Wu and Suisui's ponies have become proficient in riding, and Zhuo Ye and the guards next to them are watching, and they are ready to go.

Xiaoba also wanted to ride a horse, but he was afraid, so he reached out and pulled Shen Yue's sleeve, pitifully begging Shen Yue to accompany him.

Shen Yue said she wouldn't, but Xiao Wu and Xiao Ba also wanted to be with her.

Zhuo Ye laughed, "Miss Shen, get on the horse with the Eighth Young Master, hold on to the Eighth Young Master, I'll take you and walk slowly, you'll be fine."

Xiao Wu and Xiao Ba are both on the side and trying their best to encourage him.

Zhuo Yuan had proposed to ride a horse just now, but she refused, but now, Shen Yue looked at Xiao Ba, Xiao Wu, and Zhuo Ye, and said with a warm smile, "That's work."

Zhuo Yuan's face turned green.

"Miss Shen, don't be afraid." Zhuo Ye reached out to help her mount, Shen Yue grabbed him firmly, and then Zhuo Ye hugged Xiaoba again.

Xiao Ba sat in front of Shen Yue, Zhuo Ye led the horse and walked slowly with Xiao Wu and Suisui, the voices and laughter of several people could be heard in his ears.

Ah Si: "..."

Zhuo Yuan: "..."

The two of you look at me, I look at you, and they all remember the phrase "how is it possible" in Zhuoyuan's mouth...

Ah Si said truthfully, "Zhuo Ye has a good temper, and he won't make a fuss. He's stable, and he won't act like Uncle Sixth..."

Zhuo Yuan looked at him with dead fish eyes, "Okay, let's talk, don't you have the most bad ideas?"

Seeing him approaching, A Si sighed, "A Yue is not angry with us, because we are children, so A Yue is tolerant to us; but Liu Shu, you are not, you are not angry if you want Shen Yue, you You have to make Ayue feel like a child, so that she can't get angry."

Zhuo Yuan took a deep breath, feeling that it made sense.

Ah Si continued, "Sixth uncle, think about it, among so many children in the house, who are you the least angry about?"

Zhuo Yuan had an idea, and the two of them said in unison, "Peach!"

Ah Si nodded, "Yes, so Uncle Six, you should go to Tao Tao. Tao Tao's idea may not be the best, but it must be the most coquettish one!"

Zhuo Yuan sighed in his heart, but couldn't help reaching out and rubbing his head, "Si, Uncle Six finds that you are very promising."

Ah Si glanced at him, worried to death.

***

Before and after dusk, the group settled down at the Hancheng Inn.

When I went back, because I had to hurry, I didn't go around Mingzhou or Dancheng, but went directly back to Beijing from Hancheng, the nearest road.

Running around on the way, and riding a horse with Xiaoba, Shen Yue was a little tired, so she took a bath early, and then lay on the couch and read a book.

She has been living with Green Green for the past few days.

With the green onion around, Zhuo Yuan really didn't make much noise.

And she was too busy right now.

The attention is on a few children.

When I came to Xucheng from Beijing, there were only four children in the house, Xiaowu, Xiaoqi, Taotao and Suisui.

Xiaowu, Xiaoqi, Taotao and Suisui had spent a period of time in the kindergarten earlier, they had already adapted and familiar with the kindergarten life, and quickly got used to the schedule on the way to the winter camp.

Therefore, when I came from Beijing to Xucheng, the arrangements along the way were very substantial, but the time was relatively abundant. But when he returned to Beijing from Xucheng, there were more Ah Si, Xiao Liu and Xiao Ba in the house, and the children in the house suddenly changed from four to seven.

Although the increase in the number of people is not much, the multiple has doubled.

Shen Yueguang's daily average time allocated to each child was suddenly cut in half.

On the whole way back to Beijing, although Zhuo Xin and Cong Qing helped, Shen Yue's time was still very tight, and often a day passed in the blink of an eye, which was not enough at all.

Because, the children in the house are more than just four, six, and eight. The three children, A Si, Xiao Liu and Xiao Ba, each need Shen Yue to spend time to pay special attention and company.

For example, Little Eight.

Xiao Ba likes to eat very much, but Shen Yue found that not every meal, Xiao Ba will eat a lot; but sometimes, Xiao Ba is prone to overeating.

Moreover, when binge eating is not always eating, it may be that suddenly, Xiao Ba began to dig out the snacks that he had hoarded and start eating.

Many children like to hoard candy, because it is fun and delicious; but Xiaoba's habit of hoarding snacks is much more paranoid than the children next to him.

Shen Yue spent a lot of thought and carefully observed Xiao Ba. Try not to interfere with Xiao Ba's emotions and actions, and use a relatively neutral and independent perspective to observe the reasons behind Xiao Ba's emotions and actions.

Shen Yue slowly discovered that Xiao Ba couldn't keep his mouth shut, not all when he was hungry, but more when Xiao Ba was anxious.

For example, when Xiao Wu refused to play with Xiao Ba. At night, Mother Wang let Xiaoba sleep, when Xiaoba didn't want to sleep. Then there is the time when the children are doing daily activities together, and Xiaoba can't do it...

Every child has his own stress performance before emotions.

For example, Tao Tao’s performance is crying, thinking that crying can solve the problem; Xiao Qi is avoiding problems; Xiao Wu will be angry with his arms around his arms, humming lightly, or simply create a head-on conflict to ease his current emotions; Si’s is more direct, just not Manager...

Among the children, the one who seems to have the best temper has always been Xiaoba. Xiaoba never gets angry when something happens, always smiles and smiles and goes.

But Shen Yue's observation is that Xiao Ba also needs other things to digest his negative emotions.

The way Xiaoba digests his negative emotions is not crying or getting angry, but eating.

Eating can bring comfort to Xiaoba.

Just like Hachi likes to make small reports.

When Xiao Ba encounters unhappy things, he will smile honestly, and then quickly start flipping through things to eat.

This is why Xiao Ba is always stocking up on snacks.

——Because he needs food at any time to help digest his bad emotions.

But Xiaoba was so young that he didn't realize it at all.

Xiao Ba would only think that he wanted to eat something, and then he ate it; and after eating, he really forgot the unhappy things before.

Therefore, Xiao Ba eats desperately and is also keen to make small reports. In fact, it is one of Xiao Ba's ways to relieve his anxiety.

Therefore, when Shen Yue finds that Xiao Ba has anxiety and stress reactions, Shen Yue will spend a lot of time, talk with Xiao Ba patiently, enlighten Xiao Ba's emotions a little bit, and help him face his own emotions and digest them together. Gradually reduce Xiao Ba's dependence on food in the face of anxiety.

But it's not easy.

Every child is an independent individual, not an accessory of adults. They have their own subjective feelings and tendencies to choose. Adults can only rely on their own authority and children's trust in themselves to influence children and make them slow. Try slowly in a good direction.

But once an adult forces a child to do what the adult wants, it itself becomes one of the main sources of anxiety for the child.

Therefore, what Shen Yue has to do is to try her best to accompany Xiao Ba when she senses the coming of Xiao Ba's emotions, so that Xiao Ba slowly learns to face and accept her emotions.

This is difficult for young Hachi.

Shen Yue also needs to spend more time to guide.

...

This is only Xiao Ba, the situation of A Si and Xiao Liu are different, but they are much more complicated than Xiao Ba.

Several children need more time for Shen Yue to pay attention.

So instead of being in Xucheng and Pingning Mountain, it seems that Zhuo Yuan is around every day.

Zhuo Yuan also has his own affairs to consider, such as those in the court and the army, so the short trip to Xucheng is over. In Shen Yue's opinion, there are a steady stream of secret letters sent to Zhuo Yuan every day.

Zhuo Yuan is also too busy to tease her as much as he did earlier.

Instead, she felt better.

The time he kissed her lips was swollen, she was a little angry with him, but soon, she felt that he was no different from a big bear child. Sometimes, the more he saw you, the more proud he became.

You just pretend you didn't see it, and he slowly loses the fun of pranking.

Therefore, in Shen Yue's view. On the way back to Beijing, Zhuo Yuan was slowly busy with the affairs of the court. She pretended not to see his little actions, and he lost the fun of pranking. Instead, Shen Yue felt that it was very good now, and hoped to be able to return to kindergarten. Before, I spent more time taking care of A Si, Xiao Liu and Xiao Ba, so that they could smoothly integrate into the kindergarten life.

Little Eight has made progress.

But Si, she is still a little unsure.

Before coming to Xucheng, she was the one who worried the most. The childhood imprints imprinted on a child's mind are difficult to eradicate. And these imprints, often in invisible places, affect and accompany a child's life.

She had heard from Tao Bo, Zhuo Yuan, and Cong Qing that Ah Si's dislike for Xiao Qi was deeply rooted. She was worried that Ah Si's resistance to Xiao Qi and Hui's mother would become a paranoid part of her heart, and she would react against it. Come and influence himself.

But this trip to Xucheng, I don't know if it was because Zhuo Yuan handled it properly, or because Ah Si was well enlightened and cured during his time at his grandfather's house, Shen Yue always felt that Ah Si treated Xiao Qi. , not as paranoid as Tao Bo, Zhuo Yuan and Cong Qing said.

On the contrary, although Ah Si sometimes shows that he doesn't like Xiao Qi, he cares about Xiao Qi most of the time.

More often, he didn't even show that he didn't like it, he just loved Xiao Qi directly - for example, when he fell asleep, he always remembered that Xiao Qi loved to kick the quilt, and when he fell asleep subconsciously, he would remember to cover Xiao Qi with the quilt.

From Shen Yue's observation, Ah Si not only treats Xiao Qi, he also takes care of Xiao Wu, Xiao Ba and Tao Tao like a brother. Sometimes, this kind of care is even more meticulous than that of Zhuo Xin, a much older second brother...

But if he is concentrating on reading or doing things, and the children next to him want to talk to him, he is too arrogant to take care of him, and he is completely like a much older child. One, talking to Zhuoyuan is a bit old Shen's eldest child...

Although there was nothing wrong with Old Shen, Shen Yue always felt that such a Si had lost a little childlike innocence.

So Shen Yue always spends a lot of time getting along with Ah Si.

For example, I painted sunflowers with him, and then pretended to cover the sun with the painted sunflowers, but most of the time, Ah Si looked at her with a look of wanting to laugh.

Otherwise, she is also keen to bathe the left and right little milk dogs together with Ah Si. Xiao Qi had a good time, and Ah Si was so bored that he stretched out his hands to poke the palms of the left and right.

Most of the time, Ah Si will immerse himself in the world of books, but there are times when he is still childlike, and he will play with the children next to him, playing hide and seek, kicking Cuju, or eagle catching chickens.

After all, there are many diversity in children, and Shen Yue needs to slowly discover them.

But it is necessary to take into account Xiaowu, Xiaoqi, Taotao and Suisui.

Shen Yue's time in a day is usually continuous, which is not enough.

In addition, after returning to Beijing, and other children entering kindergarten, I am afraid that the unit time spent on each child will drop sharply.

The official kindergarten class will start in early February, and she still has a semester plan to arrange for this semester.

It is rare to arrive at Hancheng Inn earlier today, and to be able to read a book on the couch is also relaxing.

Shen Yue just saw it without realizing it, when a small official knocked on the door, "Is Miss Shen here?"

Shen Yue got up and answered the door, "What's the matter?"

The clerk in the inn cupped his hands, "Miss Jiu said she wanted to see Miss Shen, and asked the younger one to come over and ask Miss Shen if she has rested. If not, can you come over?"

If Taotao was looking for her at night, she would probably fall asleep again.

During this period of time, her energy was mostly on Ah Si, Xiao Liu, and Xiao Ba, and she ignored Tao Tao. Shen Yue replied, "I'll change my clothes and go."

The clerk in the inn cupped his hands, "The little one will go and answer first."

Shen Yue turned back and put on a cloak before going out again.

The inn was safe, but it was spring, and it was still a little cold at night.

Tao Tao's garden is arranged at the back garden of the post hotel. From Shen Yue's place, you have to pass through the garden in the back garden of the post hotel.

The garden was lit, but it was not dark.

Shen Yue stopped in front of the warm pavilion in the garden with the illuminated lantern, "Bean?"

How could Xiaoliu's beans be here?

Shen Yue looked around, but didn't see Xiao Liu, Mama Wang or Gui Zhi, not to mention why Douzi's cage was here...

When Shen Yue was surprised, Douzi suddenly said, "Don't be angry! Ayue!"

Shen Yue was stunned.

Slowly turned around to look at Douzi, Douzi... was she talking to her?

Douzi really fluttered his wings and continued, "Don't be angry! Ayue! I was wrong!"

"I know I was wrong!"

For some reason, Shen Yue only felt that when Douzi said these words, it was both mechanical and funny, very funny.

But Douzi kept repeating, "I admit it! Don't be angry!"

"Baby Qing is also a baby!"

"How can you be angry with the baby!"

"Baby Qing Zhi won't cause trouble in the future, and won't make A Yue angry!"

"Ayue, please forgive him!"

Shen Yue couldn't help but chuckle. It is self-evident who taught Douzi's words. But Douzi can imitate his words, but he can't imitate his tone.

Shen Yue has been listening quietly with a smile, and the scene when Zhuo Yuan is patiently teaching the half-hearted Douzi to speak can emerge in his mind.

It must have been taught too much, and Douzi was confused.

Later, the word order is also remembered upside down.

For example, "Baby Ayue will hear it clearly in the future!"

"Baby Ayue won't make Qingzhi unhappy in the future."

"Qingzhi, please forgive baby Ayue!"

"Baby Ayue has a thin face, let me tell you, Qing Zhiqing, she likes you, don't ignore him..."

After warming up the pavilion, Zhuo Yuan felt like he wanted to die!

Stupid, stupid bird!

Totally wrong!

He really...

Zhuo Yuan already felt that the scene was so embarrassing that he couldn't describe it in words, and Douzi continued, "Ah, you stupid bird, you are so stupid!"

"Ayue won't be angry anymore, I'll feed you candy! If you mess up, I'll feed you bitter gourd."

Shen Yue couldn't help it any longer and laughed out loud.

Zhuo Yuan's face is not a question of whether it is green or not, but it is blue and purple, purple and white, white and black.

When Shen Yue appeared in front of him with the illuminating lantern, Zhuo Yuan's black face suddenly became invisible.

"What a coincidence..." Anyway, his ears were all red, and his words were not incoherent.

Shen Yue smiled and said, "Parrots don't eat candy, baby Qing."

Zhuo Yuan was stunned: "..."

Shen Yue smiled again, "Also, bitter gourd is delicious."

After Shen Yue said that, she turned around with a smile, and did not speak to him again. Instead, when she passed Douzi, she stopped again and said gently to it, "Thank you for your hard work, Douzi, I am very happy tonight."

Douzi replied, "It should be! It should be! You're welcome!"

Shen Yue lowered her head and smiled again.

Douzi said, "Baby Ayue, good night!"

"Good night, Douzi!" The smile on the corner of Shen Yue's mouth seemed to have not fallen since before, she took the lantern and left, with warmth hidden in her eyes.

It shouldn't be Tao Tao looking for her tonight.

She doesn't have to continue to go to Taotao Garden.

Clear baby...

Shen Yue couldn't help but draw a smile in her heart, and soon, there were footsteps behind her, she seemed a little nervous, but it seemed that she naturally had to pace side by side with her, just like a long time ago.

Because shoulder to shoulder, the shadows of the two also leaned together, and she stepped on it from time to time.

"You stepped on me..." As soon as I heard it, I was deliberately looking for something.

Shen Yue still reached out to him.

He paused, held it in his hands naturally, was not ready to let go, and naturally searched for the topic and said, "By the way, this time back in Beijing, there are more Ah Si, Xiao Liu and Xiao Ba. In addition, apart from Qi Yun's Nephew, the youngest son of Shang Shufu, I am afraid that there are still several who can't be pushed back to the kindergarten one after another, is there not enough space in the kindergarten?"

When he said this, Shen Yue really focused on what he just said, "The current kindergarten was temporarily prepared for the children of the Wangfuzhong. If the original classroom space needs to accommodate some more children, it may not be large enough. Also, because the preparations were rushed at the time, many functional areas were not available, such as the music room, planting area, etc. If there were fewer children, they could barely share..."

"Then let's expand." Zhuo Yuan looked at her, "Anyway, the entire North Courtyard is empty. Let Uncle Tao find someone to build the North Courtyard into a kindergarten. Don't save space, go to complete it."

Shen Yue looked at him in surprise, the entire North Courtyard...

Zhuo Yuan looked at her with a smile, "Yeah, didn't you say before that what you want to do in particular is to build a kindergarten, so that children can explore and grow in the kindergarten, and make kindergarten a place they like?"

Shen Yue was stunned.

Zhuo Yuan continued, "There will be children who will grow up and leave to start their new journey; there will also be new children entering the kindergarten, starting from scratch again..."

Shen Yue smiled, and he remembered everything she said when he was at Ningshan.

Zhuo Yuan said again, "Then we are fortunate to be bigger and can accommodate more children. By the way, I am optimistic about the next door. When the next door Lao Liu returns to his hometown, I will bring that house over and do it. A whole kindergarten is still nearby. When the time comes, let these families in Beijing send all their cubs over, and you will take care of them. I also like children, but at that time, Xiao Wu and the others were all grown up. I will stop being the king of Pingyuan, and I will be in charge of teaching the children in kindergarten Cuju. I can't play better than Qi Yun, right?"

Seeing his longing look on his face, Shen Yue laughed, "Then you won't be the king of Pingyuan anymore, who will you hand over the stalls of the palace?"

Zhuo Yuan didn't even think about it, "Axin! You can keep him idle all the time."

Shen Yue laughed.

...

"Ah!" Zhuo Xin sneezed repeatedly.

"Brother, why do you keep sneezing?" Xiao Wu was dissatisfied.

Zhuo Xin rubbed his nose and sighed angrily, "I don't know either, but I always feel that something is wrong, as if someone was plotting it."

After saying that, Zhuo Xin glared at Xiao Wu, "Is it you! What are you thinking of bad ideas again!"

Xiao Wu "giggled" and laughed.

He knows it!

"Don't run!" Zhuo Xin shouted when he got up.

Xiao Wu was so happy that he was running around in the courtyard, and the whole inn was filled with Xiao Wu's "hee hee ha ha" laughter.

Ah Si covered his head, and it was Xiao Wu again, it was really noisy!
