December 24th.
Christmas Eve, Christmas Eve.
With the rapid development of Hua Xia over the years, the common people gradually began to understand and accept Western culture.
Christmas was the most important holiday in Western countries. No matter how much Donghua Gate Kindergarten promoted traditional culture, they could not deliberately ignore it. Otherwise, how was it different from closing the country off?
Therefore, Christmas was the only Western festival that Donghua Gate Kindergarten celebrated.
Since it was a holiday, they naturally had to arrange themed activities.
Playing with the children was secondary. The school mainly wanted the children to understand the differences between Chinese and Western culture more easily and understand the meaning of Christmas. They also hoped to cultivate the children's interest in learning English.
After all, no matter how Hua Xia developed in the future, it was imperative to integrate with the international community.
Therefore, learning English was definitely beneficial to the children.
The winter break would start in the middle of next month. Therefore, the kindergarten would usually set this day as the winter parent-child activity day, requiring the parents to attend.
The parent-child activity could not only promote the emotional exchange between the children and their parents, but it was also beneficial to the healthy growth of the children's body and mind. Naturally, its importance was needless to say.
The kindergarten hoped that every child's parents could be present. For this reason, they gave the parents a notice half a month in advance, which could be considered as leaving sufficient time for the parents to prepare.
Qin Ruoying originally wanted to participate.
However, because she had taken the largest portion of the elixir some time ago, if she did not go into seclusion to digest it in time, much of the medicinal effect would be wasted.
The Udumbara Flower was so precious. Wouldn't it be a pity to waste it?
Qin Ruoying's aptitude was very ordinary. If she did not rely on external help, then when would she be able to break through to the Celestial Being level?
Chen Xi had no choice but to repeatedly persuade her. After the little fellow said that she must let her mother have a good rest, Qin Ruoying reluctantly returned to her room and went into seclusion.
Qin Ruoying could not be present, and Chen Xi had other arrangements that day. Therefore, he had to find someone to take care of Niannian for him temporarily.
This important task …
Naturally, it fell on his sister-in-law's shoulders.
For this, Chen Xi specially called out his sister-in-law, who was in seclusion.
Qin Xueqing had always been impatient with Niannian, as if she didn't like children.
However, Chen Xi knew very well …
Qin Xueqing was a typical example of a woman who said she didn't want to, but her body reacted honestly …
Niannian was taken care of by her sister-in-law, but the brothers were in trouble.
The last time the two of them complained in the classroom that they didn't have a father, so Chen Xi wanted Xia Kaiji to attend the Christmas party in person, hoping to ease the estrangement between father and son.
After all …
Blood is thicker than water.
When Chen Xi proposed this idea, although Gu Lao still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he did not speak out against it.
On the other hand, the reaction of the two brothers was obviously a bit too extreme.
"We don't have a father!"
"No! No! There isn't! "
"We don't want Daddy! I just want my mother! "
The two brothers said one after another, and no matter what, they refused to acknowledge this father. This made Xia Kaiji, who was hiding outside the teahouse, so sad that he shed tears.
When he received Chen Xi's call, Xia Kaiji was full of joy, thinking that Gu Lao had finally forgiven him.
Unexpectedly …
The children actually refused to acknowledge him.
How could Xia Kaiji not feel sad?
Chen Xi tried to persuade the two brothers, but how could children easily give in when they were stubborn?
Whoever tied the bell should untie it.
Chen Xi suddenly thought of Gu Yao, so he used the Soul Crystal to directly summon Gu Yao's soul back.
After this period of recuperation, Gu Yao more or less recovered some of her consciousness.
After being summoned by Chen Xi, she quietly floated over the teahouse and saw everything that happened in front of her with her own eyes.
Gu Lao sat in the booth sullenly.
The two brothers stood on the side crying endlessly.
Xia Kaiji hid in the corner and silently wiped his tears …
From the day she passed away, this happy family had already been shattered.
Gu Yao was just an ordinary person, without the support of a profound cultivation base. Even with Chen Xi's help, how long could her soul last?
Three years? Five years? Or ten years?
In the end, she would disappear from the world, just like water evaporating. Not a single trace of her could be found.
She was gone, but the children were still there.
Even after ten years, they would only be fifteen or sixteen years old teenagers.
Gu Lao was already old.
Did he really want them to grow up alone like wild children, without anyone to rely on?
Gu Yao was persuaded by Chen Xi, and she finally figured it out.
After the resentment that had shrouded her heart for a long time dissipated, her soul seemed to be a little purer.
Then, Gu Yao quietly came to the two brothers.
She didn't know what she said to the two brothers, but they quickly quieted down and obediently followed Chen Xi out of the teahouse, standing in front of their biological father again.
"Daddy …"
The two brothers hesitated for a long time, and then finally called out 'Daddy'.
The moment he heard these two words, the man who was shining in the workplace finally couldn't hold it anymore.
He knelt on the ground, his hands tightly hugged the two brothers.
Because of a moment of excitement, Xia Kaiji actually let out a whimper.
"I'm sorry … Yao Yao … I'm sorry …"
He touched the two brothers' face, looking at them who obviously grew a lot taller, his tear-stained face couldn't help but reveal a trace of smile.
"I'm sorry, it's all Daddy's fault, Daddy let you suffer …"
"I'm sorry, Yao Yao …"
"I regret it so much!!!"
Xia Kaiji repented painfully, but he didn't know that every word he said now floated into Gu Yao's heart without missing a single word.
Gu Yao came to Xia Kaiji's back, as usual, gently hugged him from the back.
But it was a pity …
Xia Kaiji could no longer feel that kind of feeling from before …
Chen Xi quietly returned to the teahouse, leaving the warm moment to Xia Family's father and son.
Sister-in-law sat in the booth, bored to death, flipping through the book, as if she was not interested in everything around her.
The Christmas party will only start after school.
Niannian was still in school, the two brothers were taken out by Chen Xi.
Qin Xueqing seemed to be dissatisfied with Chen Xi because of this trivial matter, so when she saw Chen Xi came over, she rolled her eyes at Chen Xi, and then turned her body to the side.
Seeing this, Chen Xi didn't take it to heart, but directly sat in front of her, and smiled and asked, "Let me ask you a question … Why did you say you are cultivating?"
"…"
Sister-in-law didn't answer, she didn't even bother to lift her eyelids.
Chen Xi waited for a while, seeing that she still didn't speak, he continued to say, "Your so-called cultivation, first of all, is to get rid of the distracting thoughts, not to care about the chaos of the mortal world …"
"Or else, if the heart is not calm, it will mess up your actions …"
"But why do I feel …"
"This kind of cultivation, is no different from getting rid of feelings?"
"Humans have seven emotions and six desires …"
"Getting rid of feelings, getting rid of desires …"
"Is that still a human?"
After hearing this sentence, Qin Xueqing finally reacted.
She looked at Chen Xi with a speechless face, and just as she was about to say something, Chen Xi stood up and walked out.
Before she left, Chen Xi didn't even look back as she threw down a sentence.
This situation was very similar to the last time they talked.
"I'll also leave you with a sentence …"
"Who doesn't cultivate in life?"
"Through the years of wind, frost, rain, and snow, feel the mellow and long life …"
"The gains …"
