The author has something to say: The last update before school starts √The update plan for September is tentatively scheduled to be every Sunday, Tuesday, and Friday, and the time remains unchanged.Bow to everyone~

But when I actually walked into the children's house, these emotions disappeared again.

The new students lived in a very ordinary apartment building. It took ten minutes to walk from the subway station, and there were low green shrubs and brick flower beds all the way.When Shenxie University was about to graduate, I also saw similar houses with my classmates. They were often old buildings of more than [-] years, with obvious advantages and disadvantages. They were often old houses of local middle-aged people, just enough to accommodate a group of young people who were just fledgling. body and dreams.

At that time, Ye Chen hadn't appeared in his life yet, and the future seemed to have a long wait to come.

Shen Xie stopped at the entrance of the community to register information, and when she wrote down the visitor's address, she suddenly got a "Oh——" from the guard who suddenly realized

"It's a teacher, right?" The uncle at the gate warmly greeted him, "Yiyi's mother told me earlier that a teacher is coming."

He graciously showed Shen Xie the way: "Just turn right ahead and go upstairs to Unit [-]."

"Hey, thank you." Shen Xie thanked with a little surprise, and handed back the pen and the registration book through the window. The ballpoint pen attached to the plastic coil was hung on the window sill, and Shen Xie reached out to pick it up and handed it back In the hands of the doorman uncle.

For some reason, the tension that had been tense since last night seemed to suddenly relax.

Then follow the instructions to find the corresponding building number and go up the stairs to the third floor, then took out the phone to confirm the address.

The other party sent a message one day in advance, and checked the time and place of class with Shen Xie, and also attached a voice from the child, "Teacher Shen" shouted softly, followed by Omega's mother's laughing voice: "please."

It is impossible to say not to touch.Shen Xie is not the kind of person who would pick and choose students. He used to work part-time in that kind of training studio and taught high school students who had to take art exams. Whether it was before or now, he can treat them equally.

But I have to say that the other party's ironing post still warms people's hearts.

At least she is a mother who cares about her children.

As a result, when this kind of emotion actually opened the door and walked into other people's homes, I still couldn't help being overwhelmed with amazement.

The decoration of the whole house is a warm and harmonious light beige color. What doesn’t match the dusty and peeling exterior walls of the buildings is that the house looks very clean and the decoration is well maintained. It can be seen that it is old but definitely not. The type that makes people feel a little dilapidated.There was a pair of brand new plush rabbit ear slippers in a conspicuous place at the entrance of the porch. Shen Xie greeted people first, and later learned that the little girl and her mother chose these shoes together the night before.

After entering the house, the windows are bright and clean, and you can see the decorations and children's products with a strong style of little girls everywhere. It is a happy family of three that can be seen at a glance.

In contrast, although Lian Shui Wan Ju is also transparent and tidy, it obviously does not have this kind of fluffy popularity.

Standing at the door to greet the child's mother, a gentle female Omega, is as gentle and polite as the impression given by WeChat conversations.After asking, it turned out to be a typical AO family. The child's father was an employee of the company, and the mother chose to become a full-time mother like most Omegas after marriage.

"Yiyi, come and say hello to Teacher Shen."

The mother called out the child who had been watching from behind. The child stared straight at Shen Xie's changed shoes, and was slapped twice on the head by the mother.

"Hello, teacher." The girl who called Yiyi immediately stood up straight and said hello.

Shen Xie and the new student had actually met each other in the studio several times before. Although they hadn't formally brought her along, the little girl was very lively and cute. She sweetly called "Teacher Shen" when she saw Shen Xie, and she showed no signs of shyness at all.

Following the mother and daughter two steps into the room, I saw that a corner of the living room had been opened up for painting, and the area surrounded by colored floor washers faced the largest window in the room.

"My mother and I dressed it up together!" The little girl proudly claimed the credit, and Shen Xie couldn't help but bent down and rubbed her head: "Thank you for your hard work, it looks so good."

Really nice looking.

Although the space is not very large, it is neat and clean, and what is rare is that it does not appear obtrusive, and it blends harmoniously with the original decoration.The drawing paper easels have been prepared neatly according to the prior agreement, and it can be seen that they have been carefully arranged and prepared.

Because she had learned about the children's learning level and willingness during the previous communication, Shen Xie also specially brought a blank water color card made by herself when she came to the door this time.The little girl's mother brought them fruit once and then went into the bedroom, leaving Shen Xie and the children to do ice-breaking coloring games in the living room.

"Mr. Shen." The child called him sweetly, and quickly moved out the drawing paper and drawing board, while chatting with Shen Xie, "Is my mother very nice?"

Shen Xie was somewhat surprised when she heard this sentence.

It's not that he has no experience in dealing with children, but the first topic is to show off his parents, which is still a bit beyond his expectations.

Before he could ask further questions, he found out that the little girl's biological mother was a Beta, and she was separated from her father when she was very young.

"They asked if I wanted to be with my dad or my mom, and I chose my dad."

So for many years after that, the father has been taking care of the child. It wasn't until Alpha's father asked the little girl last year that the two welcomed the second mother in the family together.

"Mom said we had been waiting for each other for a long time before we finally got together."

To be honest, Shen Xie was a little surprised when she heard this, she couldn't tell what flashed through her mind at that moment, and when she thought about it later, she had to admit that she might have thought of herself for a ten-thousandth of a second.

But in fact, he just said calmly at that time: "Is that so?"

He helped the little girl squeeze out the paint, and then guided her to use a small brush dipped in water to smudge the color.

He was still smiling while doing this, and he still remembered to correct the little girl's gesture of holding the pen.So the little girl shared with him even more proudly: "You know, my mother treats me very well now."

Then there are some small daily trifles to share, maybe the children see him as friendly and unassuming, or if they have a lot of honey in their hands, they really can’t help but want to overflow, even facing the first day to teach themselves The teacher can't help but show off.

So by the end of this day's class, Shen Xie had already heard a lot of stories about the "second mother".

For example, her mother took her to buy the most popular small hairpin in the school, "becoming a little bit prettier than the most beautiful female student in the next class".

Another example is that my mother picked out a lot of the latest nail art stickers with her without telling my father, and then took them out one by one in the room to try them out. I painted all ten nails colorfully, and then quickly removed them before my father came home. Lose.

As for inviting all the plush toys out to sit in a row in the sun on a sunny day, making delicious lunches in different ways, or generously letting myself kiss the cheek in front of my classmates, it's not a problem at all.

"Don't look at my mother being so gentle, but when someone bullies me at school, she will take me to justice!"

The kid doesn't seem to be bothered by his stepmother at all, and when he mentions this, it's not so much a big deal, it's more like a kind of showing off without malice:

"My mother told me that I was luckier than the other kids because two angels wanted to kiss me!"

—Two angels.Shen Xie finally smiled when she heard this.

So why the little girl can't wait to reveal the truth about the family relationship seems to have found the answer.

There is a saying that children will naturally identify those around them who can share their secrets. However, compared to this, what is more admirable is what kind of parents can let their children live with such pure and kind words. Here, I am so happy that there seems to be no haze.

What a happy child to have such a pair of parents.

So when the children's candy sharing session progressed to the point where many friends were invited to have a birthday party at home, Shen Xie couldn't help but follow suit: "I had it when I was young."

He held the little girl's hand and put the pen into the bucket with her to rinse it clean, and then arranged the completed color cards and hung them up neatly: "It's true, with a lot of friends, everyone can get a piece of cake." .”

Probably because of being reminded of the past, those memories of childhood and community welfare homes suddenly emerged from the depths of my mind.At that time, every child’s birthday was very simple, and they could only get a small piece of cream cake during the afternoon snack time.

But that kind of pure happiness is still clearly imprinted in my heart, so that every year when that day is approaching, I start to pay attention to the calendar hanging on the wall every day, and jump for joy every time I tear off a page.

What was I looking forward to at that time, to grow up, to protect the people around me, to become a truly complete and independent self, and to survive without relying on anyone.

It seems that there is a certain naive comparison mentality, so that even this little bit of happiness can't help but share it at this time.

——But the current self doesn't seem to be able to achieve those things in his dreams.

And it seems unlikely that it did.

At that moment, he even began to envy his new student, who was also facing a family separation, but she could have a pair of parents who respected her, a gentle and kind new mother, and her life after the change was still peaceful and peaceful.

Instead of being the one abandoned by everyone like myself.

He didn't even dare to think, whether his obsession with Ye Chen now was due to his subconscious obsession with being unwilling to give up the connection with another person.

Or simply because he is an Omega, he has to bear all this.

However, this idea was ruthlessly broken in the later time.
