Everyone in Kindergarten was reborn, except for…[90’s] - Chapter 3

Today’s family courtyard is a bit lively.

Early in the morning, there are chores to be done in the east and chores to be done in the west. On a perfect Sunday, the plan to sleep in and have a lazy morning has gone down the drain.

Old man Rong went out to inquire and educate around, then came back with hands behind his back, spreading gossip to the family members.

“Tianbao from the Kong family had a nightmare and started screaming. It seems she screamed too loudly, scaring people, and even Xiongbao from the Xiong family in the opposite building also screamed. You know how it is with kids, they imitate each other, and now several kids are also screaming for no reason. But our little treasure, Xuebao, is the most well-behaved; she sleeps soundly and peacefully.”

Old man Rong praised and looked approvingly at their own little one.

Xuebao was sipping her tofu pudding, proudly puffing her chest out, and in her sweet little voice, she said: “I’m the most well-behaved, good babies sleep and grow tall.”

This proud little appearance made everyone in the family happy. Old Lady Zhao Guixiang, smiled and said: “Look at our clever Xuebao, she already knows about growing taller; when we sleep well, we grow up to be tall.”

Xuebao was praised, and her grape-like eyes sparkled with a little pride. She pursed her lips, with the corners of her mouth slightly upturned, happily swinging her little legs.

“People just love our Xuebao. Old man, it’s not you who bought this breakfast for her; it was Ms. Lin who bought it for Xuebao.” The old lady beamed with pride. Their Xuebao is simply adorable, and everyone loves her.

Old man Rong was very surprised and said, “Isn’t it Dong’er who went to buy it this morning?”

“He did go, but he didn’t buy it.”

Old man Rong frowned and said, “When I just came back, I heard that Ms. Lin fainted. It has nothing to do with you, right?”

He stared at his son, Rong Jiadong, who raised his hand and said, “Oh, I went… It has nothing to do with me. She was absent-minded early in the morning, her hair was all messy like a chicken coop, and she was wearing mismatched shoes. Who knows what happened to her.”

With her round and big eyes, Xuebao stared at her dad, puffing up her little cheeks, and softly said, “Don’t say bad things about the teacher.”

Rong Jiadong patted his daughter’s little curls and said, “I didn’t say anything, I didn’t say anything.”

The little girl tilted her head and said with confidence, “Chicken coop.”

This is not a good word.

Rong Jiadong: “Oh my, my little girl. Dad was just describing it casually. Look at your messy hair, didn’t Dad also say that about you? It’s not saying bad things about people. Be a good girl.”

The little girl didn’t say a word and took a big bite of the biscuit.

Tao Lihua smiled and said, “Xuebao, eat slowly. Later, Mom will take you…”

“Knock knock knock, knock knock knock!” The urgent knocking on the door sounded, and Tao Lihua quickly got up to open it. “Who is it? Huh? No one…”

At the door, there was no one, but when she looked down, there was a short and stout little fellow.

The short and stout little boy rushed in like a little locomotive, and in no time, he ran straight to Xuebao and hugged her tightly, exclaiming, “Xuebao!!!”

Xuebao was sitting on the chair, eating, and was almost knocked over by him. Fortunately, Rong Jiadong quickly held onto the chair. The little boy hugged Xuebao tightly and cried, “Xuebao, Xuebao, you’re okay, you’re okay now.”

Rong Jiadong narrowed his eyes slightly, “Even though you’re a short winter melon, I must say I find you a little displeasing.”

Why are you clinging so tightly to my little girl?

Rong Jiadong became unhappy on one side, while little Xuebao was confused on the other. She didn’t know what happened to Xiongbao, who began to cry. Mimicking the adults, she quickly patted his back and said, “Don’t cry, Xiongbao. If you cry, the eagle will take you away.”

Xiongbao cried heavily. He himself didn’t expect that a landslide accident would send him back thirty years in time. How could he not cry?

Crying, crying intensely and loudly.

This is a cry of tears of joy!

“Xuebao, oh, little Xuebao…”

The father finally couldn’t bear it any longer. He pried open the little boy’s hands and picked him up, saying, “You little fellow, why did you come to my house crying early in the morning? What’s going on? Did you misbehave again and get scolded by your dad?”

Xiongbao wiped his face and looked at the young man before him. He was no longer the old and lifeless person they later saw. He was still the best Uncle Rong who used to buy them sweets. Unable to hold back his emotions, Xiongbao hugged Rong Jiadong’s neck tightly, and with a loud cry, he buried his face in his neck and sobbed loudly.

Rong Jiadong: “D*mn!”

Xiongbao: “Uncle Rong, I like you the most…”

Rong Jiadong: “…”

You can like me all you want, but please don’t wipe your tears and snot on me.

The Rong family members were stunned by the unexpected actions of the little boy.

Little Xuebao looked at Xiongbao, not understanding why he was hugging her dad again. The little girl pursed her lips and tugged at Xiongbao’s trousers, softly saying, “This is my dad.”

She tugged again, trying to snatch her own dad back.

Xiongbao came to her house early in the morning to snatch her dad, and she pouted, feeling a little bit unhappy.

“Xiongbao…”

Xiongbao turned his head and hugged Xuebao again, saying, “You’re okay, that’s really great!”

Little Xuebao’s big black grape-like eyes were filled with confusion. Today’s Xiongbao was so strange.

She pouted her small mouth, patted him gently, and in a childish voice said, “Big boys don’t cry.”

“Xuebao.” At some point, a few more kids appeared at the door, short and chubby little ones, gathering outside the Rong family’s home. This group of kids, like little animals, all had red eyes and called out crisply, “Xuebao.”

Xuebao scratched her head, making her already untidy curls even messier. She slid down from the chair and asked softly, “Are you all here to play with me?”

She felt a little shy as she said, “I can’t play with you all today.”

She looked at Tao Lihua, and her little hands came together as she said, “Today, I’m going to buy sandals with Mom. My sandals are broken, and I have no shoes to wear.”

At the forefront was Kong Tiantian, with her hair tied in a cute ponytail, nodding with red eyes and saying, “You go ahead, we’ll be playing downstairs. When you come back, come find us, okay?”

Little Xuebao quickly nodded vigorously and crisply replied, “Okay.”

She also became anxious and said, “Mom, braid my hair, let’s go buy shoes.”

Buy shoes early, come back early, and go play early.

Tao Lihua looked at her daughter and then at the group of kids, nodding and saying, “Alright, we’ll leave early and come back early.”

These kids are all Xuebao’s classmates from kindergarten, and she could probably call each of them by name. “Xiaobai, don’t you live at the back? Why did you come here?”

She was surprised. These kids really had the heart to come all the way here just to play with her.

The little boy who was called out suddenly realized and scratched his head, saying, “I didn’t tell my mom and just ran out…”

The Rong family: “…”

Another little boy called out, “I didn’t tell my mom either.”

As they finally realized that they had been reborn and quickly ran over here, they just wanted to confirm if Xuebao was still alive. They completely forgot that they should have informed their family before leaving.

After all, they are only… four years old!

“Oh, I didn’t say anything either!”

“Oh no, my mom will scold me.”

“Oh no!”

The little kids who had gathered like ants just a moment ago quickly scattered. One by one, they ran back home.

Old Lady Zhao Guixiang looked serious. She pursed her lips and said, “Where did they go for the spring outing yesterday? Did they get into some trouble? Why do all the kids look strange?”

Little Xuebao tried to mimic her grandmother’s serious expression and nodded, but she couldn’t imitate the tone. Her voice remained soft as she said, “Early in the morning, they were acting strangely.”

Zhao Guixiang lifted her granddaughter and said affectionately, “Our precious little darling.”

Tao Lihua had already started cleaning up the dishes and said, “Mom, later I’ll take Xuebao out to buy things. Is there anything you need?”

Zhao Guixiang replied, “I’ll take care of the dishes and utensils. You go and comb Xuebao’s hair. Kids are impatient and eager to play.”

Xuebao’s little plan was exposed, and she snuggled into Zhao Guixiang’s arms. Zhao Guixiang laughed heartily and said, “Oh, you are feeling embarrassed now, huh?”

Then she said to Tao Lihua, “I don’t need to buy anything right now. Your second sister is coming over today, so why don’t you buy some meat and make dumplings for lunch?”

Tao Lihua sighed and agreed.

The family of the second aunt’s husband consists of many brothers, and they haven’t divided the family property. As a result, their family life is quite tense. Whenever the couple visits every week, the mother-in-law takes steps to improve their living conditions. Tao Lihua has grown accustomed to this routine, so she doesn’t say much about it.

As a mother, she loves her daughter and grandson, but as a mother-in-law, she doesn’t meddle unnecessarily. She refuses to get involved in any troublesome matters.

Besides, Tao Lihua is actually quite willing for the second sister to come.

The reason, hehe.

That’s because this person is hardworking.

Tao Lihua has always felt that, from childhood to adulthood, she has never seen anyone as diligent as her second sister-in-law. Whenever she visits, she’s like a spinning top, always busy and active. Tao Lihua really likes it when her second sister-in-law comes. After all, their family conditions are decent, and they are not afraid to enjoy a good meal together for a week.

“Mom, how big are Xiaoyu’s feet?”

Zhao Guixiang glanced at her daughter-in-law. She knew her daughter-in-law was very good at handling things. She understood that her daughter-in-law wanted to buy sandals for her grandson. Zhao Guixiang said, “You don’t need to buy him new ones; he can still wear last year’s sandals. Save some of your money.”

Tao Lihua responded with an “okay” and skillfully divided her daughter’s hair into two loose centipede braids. Little Xuebao didn’t have bangs, but she had some fine baby hairs along her hairline. Tao Lihua found two cute strawberry hair clips and pinned one on each side.

Little Xuebao happily said, “Mom, the strawberry hair clips should match the little strawberry dress.”

Tao Lihua: “Okay.”

She took out the white-based little strawberry dress and dressed her daughter in it. The little girl happily ran to the mirror, and with a series of thumps, she admired herself, looking left and right, feeling satisfied, “I look pretty.”

Tao Lihua said, “Yes, yes, you look beautiful.” Then, she opened the little mushroom baby cream and applied it to her daughter’s skin, making her smell nice and fresh.

She went back to her room and grabbed a handbag, placing her wallet inside. She said, “Mom, Dad, we’re going out.”

Rong Jiadong said, “I’ll go with you too. I need to visit the factory.”

He quickly took off his white shirt and complained, “This naughty child, she dirtied me all over. How can I go out like this?” He swiftly changed into clean clothes and said, “Our boss asked me to help with running a wedding car today.”

He picked up the hair spray and sprayed some on his head, then casually combed his hair. He asked, “How do I look?”

The elderly couple looked at their son’s appearance, and Grandpa Rong couldn’t bear it, saying, “Not good, not like a decent person.”

Old lady: “Hurry up and leave.”

Rong Jiadong: “Uh, it’s not what you think…”

He chuckled and said, “Xuebao, isn’t your dad very handsome?”

Xuebao said loudly, “Daddy is the most handsome.”
