Chapter 315: Chapter 293: Isn’t This a Kind of Indirect Praise?

The next morning.

Sunlight gently filtered through the sparse clouds, softly illuminating Dorami Kindergarten.

On this beautiful morning, Dorami Kindergarten was about to hold its annual “Enjoy the Fun of Autumn Plowing, Relish the Joy of Planting” autumn plowing event.

In preparation for this grand moment, the children appeared in the park wearing neat uniforms, as requested by the kindergarten.

At this moment.

Led by their class teachers, the children held hands, forming tidy lines, and marched joyfully toward the botanical garden, ready to begin a special autumn plowing experience.

As soon as they entered the botanical garden…

The children were just like “Granny Liu visiting the Grand View Garden” – their eyes were opened wide!

Indeed.

They were captivated by the fruit trees along the way.

Those fruit trees danced gracefully, laden with fruit, like a bountiful harvest painting, making the children reach out to touch the fruits, feeling the gifts of nature, while exclamations of awe continued to rise.

“Wow, there are so many fruits here~”

“Wow, are these oranges? They are still green, so cute!”

“Look, that’s pomegranate! But they’re so small, still red, like little lanterns. Are they about to ripen?”

“Grapefruit, grapefruit, I know that’s grapefruit!”

“Look at those persimmons, so many persimmons are there!”

“Huh? What’s that tiny thing? Oh, I know, it’s hawthorn! I’ve read about it in books…”

“…”

Amidst the children’s exclamations, the teachers led their respective classes to their “responsibility fields.”

“Kids, look, this plot of land before us is the ’responsibility field’ of our Class (3). We will sow seeds of hope here, let the seeds take root and sprout on this land. We need to weed, till the soil, water them, and carefully nurture their growth over time…” Yang Yuxi introduced to the children, standing in front of the responsibility field with the Class (3) sign.

“Field Joy” is a unique course meticulously crafted by Dorami Kindergarten, extending children’s daily activities to an expansive plantation base.

By personally participating in planting activities, children gain a deep understanding of the growth processes of various plants, experience the joy of planting and the happiness of labor, while also honing their labor skills.

More importantly, this activity helps cultivate children’s observational abilities and exploratory spirit, enhancing their knowledge of nature.

Making the plantation a truly beloved and enlightening “field paradise” for young children.

As the plants gradually mature, the children will personally partake in the harvest, turning their labor fruits into delicious snacks, or not — instead, the fresh vegetables can be displayed outside the kindergarten gate, for parents and nearby residents to purchase through a charity sale.

The funds raised from these charity sales will be entirely allocated to each class’s budget.

Before starting the planting, the teachers gathered around their respective classes and patiently introduced the crops to be planted, detailing their growing habits and processes.

The children listened intently, occasionally responding with an “Oh” of understanding.

Whether they truly understood or were just being good sports, one couldn’t tell.

Huang Jun stood in a corner of the botanical garden, observing Qingqing and Weiwei listening intently along with the other children, knowing that these two little ones had a keen interest in planting activities.

And as anticipated…

When Qingqing and Weiwei got their little hoes, they immediately threw themselves energetically into the ranks of land cultivation.

Huang Jun smiled, picking up his phone to capture this memorable moment.

But it didn’t take long…

For his sneaky photography to be discovered by the two little ones.

“Daddy…”

“Ah!”

Since he was caught, Huang Jun had no choice but to step forward, smiling as he asked, “Qingqing, Weiwei, what vegetables are your class planting today?”

“Spinach!”

The two little ones shouted in unison.

“Really, shall I help you plant them?” Huang Jun saw that they were highly motivated but still small in strength, so he offered to help.

The two little ones excitedly answered, “Okay!”

Other children heard this and gathered around curiously, looking at Huang Jun with eyes sparkling with anticipation, “Qingqing’s daddy, are you going to plant spinach with us?”

“Yes!” Huang Jun nodded, smiling slightly, “Do you welcome me?”

“Welcome! Very welcome!”

The children answered in unison, their little hands applauding loudly.

Yuanyuan excitedly added, “I love planting spinach with you, Qingqing’s daddy!”

“I also love planting vegetables with you!”

Huang Jun chuckled in response, taking the hoe from Yang Yuxi’s hand, then stepping into Class (3)’s ’responsibility field.’

He swung the hoe, joining Yang Yuxi and the other teachers in busying themselves with re-tilling the small piece of land.

The saying goes, “A good match makes work less tiring.”

Added to this is a group of little helpers energetically assisting on the side.

It didn’t take long for the renovation work to be completed.

The weeds were cleared away, and organic fertilizer was evenly spread on the land, making it look rich and full of life.

Then, they divided the land into two plots…

The speed of their work made other classes’ teachers envious indeed!

But unfortunately…

They didn’t have such supportive parents helping out, and could only watch from a distance with envy, silently feeling sorry for their own two arms that were on the verge of exhaustion…

Huang Jun was completely unaware that he had once again become the “hot commodity” in the eyes of teachers from other classes.

At this moment, he was smiling as he spoke to his two precious daughters, “Daddy will dig the holes, how about you two plant the seeds?”

“Sure!”

Qingqing and Weiwei smiled brightly, dimples showing, and nodded at him with their little heads.

Huang Jun switched to a small hoe and dug a shallow pit.

Qingqing and Weiwei quickly placed a few spinach seeds in the pit, then Huang Jun gently covered them with soil, moved to another spot, and repeated the process.

Just then.

Suddenly, Qingqing let out a shout of surprise, “Ah!”

“What’s wrong?” Weiwei asked curiously.

“An earthworm!” Qingqing excitedly pointed to the pit just dug.

Turns out Huang Jun’s hoe accidentally uncovered a large earthworm, wriggling frantically on the soil.

“Wow, that’s a huge earthworm…” Weiwei was also intrigued by the sudden discovery and couldn’t help but open her eyes wide.

“Earthworm, over there, I see it, I see it~”

This discovery instantly attracted the attention of the nearby children, who gathered around to curiously observe the earthworm.

However…

The earthworm quickly burrowed back into the soil and disappeared from sight.

Such a pity~

The kids pouted, looking regretful.

Qingqing and Weiwei watched the place where the earthworm disappeared, but continued to giggle as they sowed the seeds.

The responsibility field of Class (4) was not large, and with the power of many, the spinach planting was completed quickly.

Huang Jun reached out to wipe the sweat off Qingqing and Weiwei’s foreheads, asking gently, “Are you tired?

Qingqing nodded slightly, then shook her head saying, “Daddy, I’m not tired.”

“I’m not tired at all either!” Weiwei shook her head too.

Huang Jun smiled and took the opportunity to guide them, “You must feel how hard farmers work planting crops, right? Do you remember the Tang poem I taught you, ’Sympathy for the Farmers’?”

“Of course we remember!” The two little ones nodded eagerly, smiling as they said, “Daddy, I’ll recite it for you.”

“Go ahead!” Huang Jun agreed happily.

Qingqing and Weiwei blinked, thought for a moment, and then recited in unison, “Hoeing the crops at noon, sweat drips onto the soil beneath the crops. Who knows that in the bowl, every grain is the result of hard work.”

Their smooth and accurate recitation surprised the teachers, including Yang Yuxi and Liang Yinqiu.

Although this Tang poem is simple, for the little kids in the class, it’s still a bit challenging, and not all kids present could recite it so fluently.

Qingqing and Weiwei’s ability to recite it fluently is thanks to Huang Jun’s careful guidance!

It’s undeniable that Huang Jun is an outstanding educator, his culinary skills aside!

Their admiration for Huang Jun rose steadily.

The other children were also impressed by Qingqing and Weiwei’s performance, casting admiring glances their way and thinking to themselves, “That’s amazing!”

“That’s very well recited!” Huang Jun nodded in satisfaction, praised them, and then continued to ask, “Do you know what this ancient poem means?”

“We do.” Qingqing and Weiwei nodded together: “It teaches us to treasure food and not waste it casually.”

Huang Jun smiled and further emphasized, “That’s right, so when you eat, you must finish the food in your bowl and not waste any.”

Weiwei smiled sweetly, saying, “Daddy’s food is so delicious, I can’t bear to waste it!”

“Yes, daddy’s cooking is so good, we can’t get enough, how could we possibly waste it!” Qingqing nodded like a little chick pecking rice.

Huang Jun chuckled.

Isn’t this a form of praise?

Seems so!

Just as Huang Jun was enjoying this moment of joy, Xie Jianing’s surprised exclamation, “Ah!” suddenly rang in his ears…
