In the blink of an eye, it was the weekend again. For Xi Xi, this coming weekend was mixed with good news and bad news.
The good news was that the blackboard bulletin that Xi Xi and her friends had carefully prepared for two weeks had been completed. (In fact, it had been completed on Tuesday, but they had been adding to it later.) The beautiful handwriting, beautiful pictures, beautiful plate arrangement, interesting patterns, and so on. The blackboard bulletin they made was loved by all the students in the class, and many students from other classes also came to watch it.
Now, their blackboard was ready, and they were only waiting for the evaluation organized by the school next Monday.
In addition to these, there were other things that made Xi Xi happy. For example, the bean sprouts planted by Xi Xi had grown in the water in the glass bottle, and the other flower pots had sprouted new buds one after another. In the yard full of flowers, it was full of spring!
It seemed that everything was developing in a good direction. However, there was a worrying thing that was enough to make Xi Xi unhappy!
The little girl's loosened lower incisor, after a week of development, finally began to unscrupulously reveal its ambition to break away from its owner's gums!
"Papa, look!" On Friday night, Xi Xi finished brushing her teeth. Before going to bed, she said unhappily.
The little girl opened her small mouth and wanted her father to see. She stuck out her small tongue and pressed the bottom of her tongue against the tooth. She moved it, and the shaking tooth began to twist.
That's right!
It was twisting!
The tooth had loosened to the point that it could rotate!
Of course, the word "twisting" was an exaggeration. In fact, it could only twist a little. Xi Xi did not dare to use too much strength, because if she turned her head, the root of the tooth would still be stuck in the soft flesh of the gums, and excessive movement would be very painful!
"Well, Papa saw it. Now that it has reached a certain level, it should be able to fall off by the weekend or early next week. We have a word to describe this situation: melons fall when ripe. " Yang Yi laughed. "It means that the Apple on the tree is like an apple. When it ripens to a certain extent, the stalk will naturally fall off, and the fruit will fall onto our plate! It's the same for your teeth. Lick them more often, and when they shake to a certain extent, they will naturally fall off. "
Although her father's story had attracted some of Xi Xi's attention, the little girl still had her own worries.
"But, but what if I dropped it while I was sleeping?" The little girl, who was wearing a little nightgown, sat cross-legged on the bed. Her eyebrows drooped as she said to her father worriedly, "I'm afraid I'll eat it into my stomach. It's very scary!"
Uh, what if my teeth fall out and I accidentally eat it? Xi Xi's question stumped Yang Yi!
At first, Yang Yi thought that Xi Xi's question was funny. He had never heard of anyone losing their teeth while sleeping! In some novels, it was mentioned that some tough guys would swallow their teeth after being beaten.
But on second thought, Yang Yi felt that there was a possibility that one's teeth would fall off in their sleep!
However, teeth wouldn't be digested by gastric juices, so eating anything was just a matter of looking around. Moreover, teeth that fell off naturally weren't sharp, so it wouldn't cause too much of an impact on the stomach. Yang Yi wasn't worried that this problem would cause serious consequences.
Yang Yi thought about it carefully. After all, this was a very small possibility, so the key to his answer was to let Xi Xi not worry too much and sleep peacefully.
"How could it? The teeth won't secretly fall out while you're sleeping. It's still thinking that I'm going to leave Xixi, so I have to bid Xixi a proper farewell, so it must let you watch it fall! " Yang Yi said with a smile, "Dad has prepared everything for you. When your first baby tooth falls off, we'll put it in a small bottle and treasure it. It's a memento of your growth!"
In order to reassure Xi Xi, Yang Yi used a fairy tale tone and anthropomorphized the teeth.
"Really?" The little girl looked at her father for a while and whispered in a low voice. When she saw her father nod to her firmly, she hesitated and felt relieved.
…
On Saturday morning, Xi Xi got up and the first thing she did was to run to the bathroom to check her teeth.
Fortunately, her front teeth were still there, so she hadn't swallowed them. The little girl breathed a sigh of relief.
"Papa, where's Mom?" After washing up, Xi Xi went downstairs and saw her father in the dining room, ladling porridge into her bowl, and Tong Tong, who was walking around holding a bottle and drinking milk. However, there seemed to be no trace of her mother, so the little girl asked curiously.
Tong Tong woke up very early every day and was very energetic. When he got up in the morning, he walked around. Today, Murphy was not at home, so Yang Yi took care of him alone. The little boy walked to the living room and then back to the kitchen like a patrol officer, as if he was patrolling to prevent his father from doing anything illegal!
"Mom went to the company. She has a concert next week, so she can't practice singing at home, so she has to go to the company to practice." Yang Yi raised his head and smiled at Xi Xi.
"Why?" Xi Xi asked curiously as she climbed onto the chair and sat down to eat breakfast.
"Because when little brother sees Mom, he will pester her and ask her to play with him!" Yang Yi turned to look at Tong Tong and said with a smile.
Xi Xi also turned to look at Tong Tong.
Little Rascal found that his sister and father were both looking at him. Little Rascal seemed to have heard them talking about him, and it was about his mother. However, he did not fully understand the specific content, so at the moment, he was in a state of confusion.
Looking at his innocent little eyes, Xi Xi couldn't help giggling.
After breakfast, Xi Xi was full of energy. The little girl ran around the house with her little brother while giggling. Soon, she felt a little bored and went to find her father. "Papa, what are we going to do this morning?"
Yang Yi thought for a moment and said, "How about we decorate the flower pot? For example, we can make a small flag, which is equivalent to the small tags we see when we go shopping. We can stick it in the soil and tell others what we are doing. "
"Okay! Okay! " Xi Xi was interested. She knelt on the sofa and held her father's shoulders with both hands. She asked excitedly, "What are we going to do?"
"First of all, let's take a piece of white paper and paste photos of carrots or cabbages on it …" Yang Yi was also speaking on the spot. He said whatever came to his mind. At this moment, he thought that it was a little inappropriate to paste photos, so he pondered for a moment and said, "Wait a minute, we don't need to paste photos. Let's draw them. It looks more interesting!"
"Yes, yes!" When it came to drawing, Xi Xi was even more interested. The little girl pulled her father's arm and couldn't help but twist her little butt. She said excitedly, "Papa, I want to draw. Let me draw the big carrots!"
"Of course you draw them. I'll let you draw them. At most, I'll teach you how to draw them." Yang Yi said with a smile, "Because these are the fruits of your labor. When the time comes, you'll have to take photos and paste them in your observation diary!"
"In addition to the pictures, you'll have to write the name of the things you planted. For example, if this flower pot is planted with potatoes, you'll have to write potatoes on it, and then mark it with pinyin and the English name."
Children at Xi Xi's age were mainly learning pinyin. Yang Yi also made adjustments according to the actual situation.
"I know, potatoes are called potatoes! Tomatoes are tomatoes! "Xi Xi smiled and proudly said to her father.
"But do you know how to write them?" Yang Yi poured cold water on this somewhat complacent little girl and deliberately made things difficult for her.
"Ah!" Xi Xi was dumbfounded.
Xi Xi could speak a lot of English. She could even converse with Lu Weisha in Swedish. However, this was limited to the oral level. Even in the past year, she rarely read foreign language books. For these more complicated foreign language words to write (although it was not difficult to learn how to write after speaking), it was really difficult for her.
