"No need to be polite, your child’s health is important. Let’s leave it at that, goodbye."
"Goodbye, Teacher Li."
After hanging up the phone, Kang Li returned to the dining table and said with a smile, "Mom has already asked for your leave, now you just listen to mom, understand?"
Xiao Ming Rui nodded with a "mm-hmm."
Kang Li: "Let’s eat."
Xiao Ming Rui: "Okay, mom eat too."
After finishing the meal, Xiao Ming Rui took a couple of walks in the courtyard, drank his cough syrup, and had half a pot of warm water from the enamel tank before he went back to his room to lie down.
He actually felt quite listless.
After tidying up the kitchen, Kang Li went to check on Xiao Ming Rui and softly stepped out of the room upon seeing the little guy already fast asleep under a thin blanket.
After lunch, Xiao Ming Rui felt revitalized and conveyed to Kang Li that he could skip his nap, implying that he wanted to study.
Kang Li clearly understood what the child meant; she smiled, nodded, and stated that they would start catching up on today’s lessons in ten minutes.
It took nearly five to six minutes to wash the dishes and clean the kitchen before Kang Li returned to the living room.
By then, Xiao Ming Rui had already brought his schoolbag to the side and taken out his Chinese language book, math book, writing notebook, arithmetic notebook, and pencil case.
"Our Ruirui is all prepared, huh? Okay, let’s start our lessons now."
Taking the math book, she had the child show where they stopped yesterday, then reviewed yesterday’s material with him before starting on new content.
Her voice was gentle and soft, explaining concepts clearer to Xiao Ming Rui than even his school teachers, so unconsciously, Kang Li ended up teaching two more lessons’ worth of content.
"Oops! Did mom speak a little too much?"
"I understood it all."
"Really?"
"Mm-hmm."
Kang Li gave a thumbs-up: "Our Ruirui is truly brilliant, covering three lessons in one go, smart!"
Xiao Ming Rui shyly smiled, "It’s because mom teaches well."
