The Actor and His Sister Are Three and a Half Years Old

Chapter Sixteen

Chu Xiaoyi looked at the scene in the kindergarten, feeling that he had strayed into a new world.

He used to go to a kindergarten in the old city. It was an affiliated kindergarten of a certain university. The teaching staff was pretty good. The children also came from Kochi families, but it is by no means exaggerated.

In the auditorium, Mother Anne took Chu Xiaoyi toward her seat, and met many enthusiastic parents along the way.

Chu Xiaoyi found that Anne's mother was also very popular in the school, and she was also a very popular kid in the kindergarten when she wanted to come to Anne, otherwise there would be no "Mother Anne" aura.

Mother Annie and Chu Xiaoyi walked to the front row of the auditorium. She pointed to the named seat in the front row and explained: "Xiao Xiao is a student representative. The parent is not in the class, but in the first row."

Chu Xiaoyi turned his head and saw that he saw the seat of "Brother Chu Xiaoxiao" and said hurriedly: "Thank you!"

Chu Xiaoyi was dizzy in the auditorium, but fortunately, with the help of Anne's mother, he finally managed to take a seat.

There is also a small paper bag on each seat, which contains the kindergarten opening ceremony souvenirs. The various small objects are exquisitely made and very grand.

Chu Xiaoyi: The kindergarten's opening ceremony plans are almost catching up with the brand activities this year?

He found that Anne's mother's seat was next to him, and it was estimated that the child Anne had also made arrangements for the opening ceremony.

The positions of the two of them are simply VIP seats, and the people behind them talked to each other as soon as they were seated.

"Is this Brother Xiao Xiao?

It’s the first time I know that Xiao Xiao has a brother? "

The parents in the back row probed their heads and said incredulously.

The front row of the parent seat seems to have a unique social circle, everyone knows or faces each other, and it is not awkward to talk.

When Chu Xiaoyi first arrived, he had never had such a great social pressure, and he was busy saying: "Hello, hello, I am Brother Xiao Xiao."

"Hello, hello, I'm Yahan's father!"

The male parent handed Chu Xiaoyi a business card and shook hands with him solemnly.

Chu Xiaoyi greeted countless children's parents again and again, and received a few business cards in a bewildered manner.

Fearing to remember people by himself, he simply took out a pen from the small paper bag and wrote the child's name on the parent's business card to distinguish it from the parent who did not hand him the business card.

Chu Xiaoyi: If it is a blind or fearful person, I am afraid it has completely collapsed now.

Chu Xiaoxiao seems to have a good relationship with Annie and Yahan, so that Anne's mother and Yahan's father also take good care of Chu Xiaoyi.

Yahan's father: "You will take pictures at the ceremony later, do you bring a camera?"

Mother Annie took out the compact Leica from her bag and said, "I brought it, but I don't know how to use it. Try again now."

Yahan's father nodded, then silently looked at Chu Xiaoyi, showing a concerned gaze.

Chu Xiaoyi knew the school's requirements. The kindergarten asked parents to take a photo of the child at the ceremony as a souvenir.

He scratched his head awkwardly, and hesitated: "...I can use my mobile phone to take pictures?"

Xiao Bi had informed Chu Xiaoyi about the matter in advance, but he felt that it would be okay to take photos with a mobile phone, so naturally he was not prepared.

Yahan's father immediately showed disapproving eyes, but he was quite bold, patted his chest and said, "It's okay, I'll take a picture of Xiao Xiao for you!"

In the next second, Yahan's father picked up the SLR camera equipped with an ultra-long lens and showed Chu Xiaoyi his weapon.

If it weren't for his suit and leather dress, Chu Xiaoyi would suspect that the other party was a paparazzi or standing sister, and would immediately rush out to shoot a star.

Chu Xiaoyi was a little flustered when he saw this, and said hurriedly: "Thank you, but it's actually unnecessary, really unnecessary..."

Chu Xiaoyi: Is my sister an international superstar?

This is already an Oscar red carpet treatment?

Mother Anne persuaded: "You can let Yahan's father take pictures, otherwise when Xiao Xiao hand in homework, she will have a gap in her heart."

The photos taken by parents for their children will eventually be handed in, and teachers will even show them in class.

If Chu Xiaoyi casually took photos with his mobile phone, wouldn't it make Chu Xiaoxiao look up in front of the children?

Chu Xiaoyi was confused, but he didn't expect this link to be there.

After learning more about it from Mom Anne, he realized that this is a parent-child project reserved by the kindergarten. Once the school has assigned the task, it will be shown in the class later. There used to be parent-child painting, parent-child baking and so on.

Mother Anne said sadly: "Where can I bake?

Last time I had to go to the baking class in advance to complete the request for making cakes, and I finally managed to cope with it. "

Chu Xiaoyi: "..." This kindergarten is "what can't you do, toss the parents first"?

Mother Anne: "But I heard Dad Xiao Xiao say that you still bring a cameraman over, so you can use your mobile phone to take pictures. Anyway, there are high-definition images left, which are more commemorative than photos!"

Yahan's father gave a thumbs up admiringly, and said, "It's amazing, I didn't expect it!"

Chu Xiaoyi directly sacrificed the three consecutive denials and waved his hands frantically to explain: "I am not, I don't, you have misunderstood..."

Chu Xiaoyi: How can I explain that Director Li and others are not here to take a commemorative video for Chu Xiaoxiao?

The opening ceremony finally began, and Chu Xiaoyi no longer needed to talk to the enthusiastic parents, and could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The part of the ceremony was quite normal, with the principal’s speech, the student representative’s speech, and the parent representative’s speech. There were no new tricks in the speech content, but the language used was extremely rich.

The principal is an old gentleman with blond hair. He finished his speech in Chinese, English and French respectively.

Chu Xiaoyi said blankly: "It's so difficult to be a kindergarten principal now?

Need to know three foreign languages? "

He felt that after entering the kindergarten, he felt like a barrage of walking, and there was no way to stop.

Mother Anne: "What's the problem with this?

Xiao Xiao is no better than him... Xiao Xiao is here, Xiao Xiao is here! "

Chu Xiaoyi heard the excited voice of Annie's mother, and she saw Chu Xiaoxiao in her little robe come on stage.

She wore a dark robe on the outside and the school uniform she wore in the morning. She looked dignified and well-behaved.

The Headmaster Blond smiled gently at Chu Xiaoxiao, he reached out his hand to guide her forward, and adjusted the height of the microphone on the podium for her.

Chu Xiaoxiao thanked the principal, and then began to speak without writing, saying fluently: "Dear teachers, dear moms and dads, lovely classmates..."

Although Chu Xiaoxiao’s speech level is like a three-and-a-half-year-old child, she stood solemnly under the warm light of the auditorium, which was really childish and cute.

When Chu Xiaoyi saw the little thing standing on the podium speaking, his heart softened, and he stretched out his hand to take a picture of her.

Chu Xiaoxiao's speech was not long. Just when Chu Xiaoyi thought she was about to step down, she suddenly changed her tone and came up with another language, freely saying: "Goodmorning, ladies and gentlemen, mydearteachersand..."

Chu Xiaoyi was taken aback for a moment. He only wanted to speak bilingually as his sister, so he put down his phone and continued listening.

It didn't take long for her to change her tone again, and continued: "Mesdamesetmessieurs, bonjour..."

Chu Xiaoyi: "?"

Chu Xiaoyi: "This is..."

Annie's mother admired: "Xiao Xiao's French is really good, not worse than Annie!"

Anne's father is French, so the children grew up in a Sino-French family.

Chu Xiaoyi: "?"

After Chu Xiaoxiao finished speaking French, he continued to calmly said: "Дамыигоспода..."

Chu Xiaoyi tentatively said: "...Is this Russian?"

Mother Anne: "You are so amazing, you can hear it!"

Chu Xiaoyi: "..." No, no, I just remembered the experience of being humiliated by a big tongue trembling that day, so I carved this tone into my bones.

Chu Xiaoxiao switched to two languages ​​again, totaling 6 in total, and finally stepped down amid warm applause.

While applauding, Mother Anne said regretfully: "It's a pity, I still don't understand Spanish and Arabic..."

Chu Xiaoyi's face was dumbfounded, and her soul was puzzled: "Since you don't understand, how do you know that she speaks Spanish and Arabic?"

Mother Anne: "Because Xiao Xiao speaks in the working languages ​​of the United Nations, which are Chinese, English, French, Russian, Arabic and Spanish, totaling 6 subjects."

Chu Xiaoyi: "..." Is she the spokesperson of the United Nations for a long time?

!

After Chu Xiaoxiao finished his speech, the parent representative took the stage to speak. He spoke three languages ​​like the principal.

According to Mother Anne, this Chengcheng father used to be a simultaneous interpreter, and in short, he was also a professional player.

Of course, he received less applause than Chu Xiaoxiao, after all, he did not have an advantage in the number of languages.

Chu Xiaoyi witnessed his sister's amazing performance at the ceremony. He felt that he had always misunderstood her. Is it possible that Peppa Pig's tenth-level scholar is a genius?

Xiao Bi actually told her elder son that her younger daughter is very talented in language, but she has always belonged to the introverted and modest school, and she doesn't like to speak too much, so that Chu Xiaoyi did not clearly understand the true meaning.

Chu Xiaoyi heard the private efforts of the parents and was convinced that it was not the parents who created the language environment for Chu Xiaoxiao, but the sister's own abilities.

Their family is different from Anne's mother and others. In order for Anne's mother to learn Spanish, she plans to learn the language by herself, and then practice with Anne, so as to provide the children with a language environment.

Yahan’s father can’t learn a foreign language by himself. He will ask a foreign teacher to accompany Yahan for one-on-one practice, but this choice is obviously a middle-of-the-line policy, not as good as the parents of the “parents are the best teachers” school.

The parents of this kindergarten painstakingly study various courses, choose the best goals from them, and take their children around the world, both to learn and to broaden their horizons.

They have bothered to find summer camps and genius camps a long time ago, so that the children can prepare early in order to help the follow-up impact on the Ivy League school.

Chu Xiaoyi is by no means a "qualified" parent, but the funny thing is that he relies on his sister to attract attention, and countless people have to ask him for experience.

Chu Xiaoyi said in surprise: "But don't you feel tired?

Will it delay work? "

Mother Anne showed him the Gantt chart on the phone and replied: "Tired is definitely tired, but if you manage your time scientifically, you will basically not delay either."

Mother Anne is an excellent working woman and a master of project management. She arranges her work and family time in an orderly manner.

It is said that the same is true for Anne's father. They are responsible for Anne's foreign language training to maximize the efficiency of education.

Chu Xiaoyi pondered for a few seconds. He narrowed his eyebrows slightly, and said cautiously: "I don't know if it's appropriate to say that...but I think you are a little bit anxious?"

After Chu Xiaoyi faced the parents alone, he felt suffocating anxiety.

The people around him seemed to be always ready and hurried, showing the momentum to win the battle, which made him a little frightened.

Annie's mother smiled bitterly: "Of course I will be anxious. If Annie doesn't mix well with us in the future, what should I do?"

"She has to go to a high-ranked Ivy League before she can start various plans in life."

Chu Xiaoyi couldn't help falling into silence. He looked at Mother Annie's worried eyes and suddenly realized what they were afraid of.

They are already heroes and elite parents, but they are deeply afraid of class division and even more worried about the decline of their children's class.

They force themselves to become world-class education experts, pushing their children up with all their strength, lest they fall behind on the starting line.

They are convinced that money alone is not enough, and more importantly, to maintain the existing circle, and must do everything in their power to give their children the best things possible.

This is not only fighting father and mother's family strength, but also fighting father and mother's action and willpower.

No matter how outstanding you are in your field, you will still fall into an anxious circle, even the more elite you are.

Only the elite know the importance of class, but mortals don't have such troubles.

After the opening ceremony, Chu Xiaoyi's mood remained subtle and complicated, and even continued to pick up Chu Xiaoxiao home.

Chu Xiaoxiao climbed to the back seat calmly, and put her small schoolbag on one side. She looked no different from the morning, as if she hadn't been affected in any way.

Chu Xiaoyi looked at his sister in the rearview mirror with a slight hesitation on his face.

If the little thing is really a genius, then the family is facing new problems, how can we not waste her talent?

Chu Xiaoyi: Mother Annie has worked so hard to raise the card while holding the SR. Naturally, they can't fall behind with the SSR.

Chu Xiaoxiao noticed Brother Qi's silence, she noticed his fluctuating emotions, and she curled her eyebrows and said, "What's wrong with you?

Why are you in a bad mood? "

Chu Xiaoxiao looked at Chu Xiaoyi's mood and his face was strange. She felt that there were so many things with her brother, and there were countless times in a day when she was in a bad mood?

He was either sad or furious, and now he was anxious again, just like an unstable chemical element.

Chu Xiaoyi hesitated for a moment and asked, "Xiao Xiao, what school do you want to go to in the future?

Which day shall we go shopping in advance? "

Anne's mother takes Anne to visit the Ivy League school every year, so that she can develop an interest in well-known universities and lay a foundation early.

Chu Xiaoyi felt that it was necessary to understand her sister's ambitions. Does she like Harvard or Cambridge?

Should he take her to the US or the UK?

Chu Xiaoxiao tilted his head and said, "I want to go to Hogwarts, can you take me there?"

Chu Xiaoyi: "..."

Chu Xiaoyi gritted his teeth and said: "I'm asking about the university you want to study..."

Chu Xiaoxiao: "I want to read Hogwarts! I want to go to Gryffindor!"

Chu Xiaoyi raised his forehead with a headache. Could someone else take the child to the Ivy League school? Did he take his sister to Universal Studios?

Chu Xiaoxiao was originally calm, but she became more excited at this moment, and even happily sang the Hogwarts school song: "YoumightbelonginGryffindor, wheredwellthebraveatheart, theirdaringnerveandchivalry, setGriffindorapart..."

"..." Recently, Chu Xiaoyi discovered that her sister had a problem when she was happy. She would dance and sing happily. The last time she sang "Letitgo" while stepping on a puddle.

Although Chu Xiaoyi felt that she was talking to her like a duck, she had to say that her singing relieved his anxiety and made him no longer feel tight and uneasy.

His mood also relaxed, regaining his standard of star dancing, and joked: "You sing really badly."

Chu Xiaoxiao: "Then you re-sing the sentence I just sang, and I will admit it is unpleasant if you can sing it."

Chu Xiaoyi: "..." He can imitate the tune, but he can't recite the lyrics?

!

Seeing that he couldn't learn, Chu Xiaoxiao immediately showed a proud look, and at the same time admitted her long-term doubts: "Brother, do you really have fans?

Why should they like you? "

Chu Xiaoyi: "?

! "

Kill brother and punish your heart?

That night, Chu Xiaoxiao paid a painful price for her remarks. She was forced to watch her brother's costume TV series in the living room, and her beloved IPAD was also confiscated.

She groaned and rolled on the sofa, and said mournfully: "I don't want to watch this..."

Chu Xiaoyi: "Chu Xiaoxiao, if you watch foreign language cartoons every day, you should also accept the influence of history and culture. You can't forget your roots!"

The backstage director heard the words of the tenth-level scholar of Zhugege: "?"

Backstage director: Are you sure that watching domestic costume dramas counts as accepting the influence of history and culture?
