Han Ya showed a thoughtful look, and she heard a little about the Chu family. It was said that Chu Xiaoyi wanted to be a singer back then, and he had a very bad relationship with his father, Chu Jiadong. Chu Jiadong resented Chu Xiaoyi's decision to give up his studies. Although Chu Xiaoyi is now successful and famous, it does not mean that previous resentment and conflict have already disappeared.
Han Ya comforted: "Don't worry, the child prodigy is not a mystery, and the research on prodigies at both domestic and abroad is getting more and more in-depth. If Xiao Xiao's intellectual development is indeed far beyond that of her peers, or she has certain special talents, it’s a good thing for her to study more, otherwise, learning less will delay her..."
"Do you know the Eighth Middle School Junior High School? It specializes in recruiting gifted children of the right age to provide them with a suitable learning environment. If prodigies are placed in ordinary class, it might make them feel tired and sick of studying, because their learning ability is much higher than that of their peers, they will feel ‘not enough to eat’ in class and think that school is boring."
Xiao Bi smiled and nodded: "You're an expert in this field, that's why I asked you to come and have a look at it."
Han Ya: "Let me see Xiao Xiao first, and I happened to have a test question with me..."
Han Ya's sentence had yet finished, she suddenly saw a small head poked out behind a wall not far away, and she couldn't help being taken aback. The little girl has a beautiful face like a carved jade with a pair of bright glittering eyes. She looks young and is hiding behind the wall curiously peeking, which inexplicably reminds people of the ‘secret observation’ meme.
Xiao Bi followed Han Ya's sight. She immediately spotted Chu Xiaoxiao behind the wall and exclaimed, "Xiao Xiao, what are you hiding there for?"
Chu Xiaoxiao with her neat-cut bangs, her hair tied to the back of her head and her face as if it was a glutinous rice ball, said softly, "Mom, I want to visit Sister Yang Yin."
" We are going to eat soon. So, come over here and say hello to Sister Han Ya, and then you can go out later."
Chu Xiaoxiao looked at Han Ya, her eyes flickering as she seemed to be observing something. Seeing her being cute and well-behaved, Han Ya was the first to speak, and smiled: "Hello Xiao Xiao, I am Han Ya, I used to be your mother’s student."
Chu Xiaoxiao's eyes are like translucent gems, and she looks at Han Ya for a long time, making the other party a little confused.
Han Ya always felt that she had been thoroughly seen through by the little girl in front of her and waited in a daze for Chu Xiaoxiao’s reply.
No one knows that the young Chu Xiaoxiao has a special ability. She can see the emotional colors of people around her. In her eyes, everyone's heart has a different color, her mother Xiao Bi’s is crimson, Han Ya’s is orange. All the colors are friendly and cordial. This also made Chu Xiaoxiao unguarded in front of them.
"Xiao Xiao, greet your sister." Xiao Bi couldn't help but remind her little daughter when she saw that her little girl was still motionless.
Chu Xiaoxiao confirmed that Han Ya was sincere and harmless, and she immediately became lively and relaxed, and said generously: "Hello, sister, my name is Chu Xiaoxiao."
Seeing the little girl's naivety and confidence in her speech, Han Ya immediately put her mind down and took the initiative to say: "Xiao Xiao, I heard Teacher Xiao said that you are very good at foreign languages. Recently, I also want to learn foreign languages. Can I ask you some questions?"
Han Ya has dealt with a number of gifted children, and naturally knows the importance of equal communication. Geniuses or child prodigies always seem to have weird traits. That is, if adults put on airs in front of them, they will hit a wall when communicating with them.
Chu Xiaoxiao tilted her head and thought for a moment. She didn't immediately reply to Han Ya but ran away like a bunny hopping around.
Looking at the little girl who suddenly ran away, Han Ya looked at Xiao Bi a little bewildered, not knowing where she had provoked her.
"You poked a hornet's nest this time. She probably won't let you go for a while..." Xiao Bi said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "In our house, we don't dare to ‘learn' or 'ask' from her casually."
Han Ya: "?"
Before Han Ya could respond, she heard the sound of a wheel rattling. The little girl pushed a huge whiteboard higher than herself, rushed towards Han Ya enthusiastically, and finally stopped firmly in the middle of the living room.
Chu Xiaoxiao adjusted the iPad page and handed it to Han Ya. She immediately assumed the posture of a little teacher, and said solemnly: "Sister, please choose a course you want to learn."
Han Ya looked at the content on the iPad and was dazzled by the various courses listed on it, ranging from serious courses such as English, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, etc., to informal courses, such as splits, cat language, fun, and relaxation, etc.
Han Ya: "..." I think there is something strange going on.
Han Ya patiently said: "Are all these Xiao Xiao can teach?”
Chu Xiaoxiao held up her chest with arms akimbo, her small face full of pride: "These are the things I can teach others." In other words, if she doesn't have a good command of the language, the language has not been on the list yet.
Seeing how proud she was, Xiao Bi reached out and tapped her youngest daughter, reminding her: "Don't be too proud."
Chu Xiaoxiao corrected it with her fingers and said solemnly, "I have only a little pride, not too much."
When Han Ya heard the little girl's milky voice, she couldn't help but laugh. Xiao Bi was also helpless, unable to stop Chu Xiaoxiao from showing off like a child.
Han Ya suppressed her curiosity about cat language, she chose one at will and said, "Then I will choose Japanese."
Han Ya, on the other hand, doesn't mind spending some time playing with Chu Xiaoxiao, and when they were kids they used to play simulations of teachers teaching and doctors giving injections. The game is a perfect moment to show the logic of children's thinking, so it's a good starting point.
Seeing Han Ya's decision to finish the course, Chu Xiaoxiao immediately prepared in full swing and found out the lesson plans she had prepared.
Xiao Bi noticed the surging enthusiasm of her little daughter, she gave Han Ya a sympathetic look and sighed, "You'll regret it later. She's really good at teaching."
Chu Xiaoxiao likes to teach as a teacher the most, and she doesn't know if this talented skill comes from Xiao Bi.
Han Ya: "?"
Han Ya originally wanted to observe Chu Xiaoxiao through games, but she didn't think that the little girl was not playing house but really wanted to teach.
Chu Xiaoxiao moved a small chair, and she stood on the chair with a high spirit, writing on the whiteboard with a marker. Not long after she had just taught, she noticed that Han Ya had clammed up, and she was immediately dissatisfied: "Sister, why didn't you follow along?"
Han Ya: "..." Because I just want to observe your language skills, but don't really want to learn Japanese?
Han Ya: "I...I'm afraid I can't read well..."
Chu Xiaoxiao solemnly said: "Then we need to read it more, let's repeat it, あ, い, う, え, お." (This is AIUEO, 5 first hiragana characters like ABCDE in English)
Han Ya was embarrassed. As an adult, she was sitting in the living room of Teacher Xiao's house and she was really ashamed to read a foreign language, so she whispered: "Xiao Xiao, sister has a set of exercises, otherwise we will do the exercises together..."
Han Ya now has a preliminary evaluation of Chu Xiaoxiao, and naturally, there is no reason to continue learning the Japanese language course and can move on to the next stage. She has a set of exercises for prodigies, which can test their logical thinking and image cognition.
Chu Xiaoxiao immediately shook his head, with a decisive attitude: "No, you can't give up your studies halfway, あ, い, う, え, お!"
Han Ya bit the bullet and said, "I'm not feeling well today, so I'll come back and learn from you some other time, okay?"
Chu Xiaoxiao: "あ, い, う, え, お!"
Han Ya: "..."
Chu Xiaoxiao: "あ, い, う, え, お!"
Han Ya said wearily: "あ, い, う, え, お..."
Chu Xiaoxiao instantly satisfied and continued: "か, き, く, け, こ..." (Hiragana for ka, ki, ku, ke, ko)
Han Ya had no choice but to listen to the little girl for 45 minutes, and it is a high-quality course that must be listened to without any distractions. If she wants to touch her phone, the girl will show an expression of disapproval, and the other person would silently criticize with her eyes, making it difficult for her to be distracted.
When the first Japanese lesson was over, Chu Jiadong greeted everyone for a meal promptly, which interrupted Chu Xiaoxiao’s action just in time. Han Ya felt relieved when she saw it and finally got up from the sofa. She was devastated by the high-intensity course, which made her feel a little hungry.
She was secretly grateful in her heart. Han Ya: Fortunately, I didn't pick cat language just now, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.
If she did choose cat language, she thought it was possible for Chu Xiaoxiao to make herself meow and read it out loud.
