After guessing that the time was almost up, Xia Junshan and Nan Li took Chaochao directly to the auditorium where the singing competition would be held.
"Oh hubby, I didn't expect there were so many people today~"
"Fengfan Elementary School has always attached great importance to this kind of cultural activities over the years!"
The couple walked forward while chatting, intending to find a seat near the front so that they could better watch their daughter's performance later.
Not long after we sat down, the show officially started. The young host Huanhuan walked up to the stage with a male classmate in a stylish manner.
Initially, the little girl was a little nervous when she saw the crowd in the audience, but when she saw her parents waving to her, a smile appeared on her face.
Taking a deep breath, she picked up the microphone in her hand and said generously: "Dear classmates and teachers!"
"Following the rhythm of youth, we stride towards spring, singing and laughing all the way, and everything is waiting happily in the wind and snow..."
Seeing her daughter's outstanding performance in the audience, Nan Li, who was holding her son in her arms, quickly made a video call to her mother on her mobile phone and asked her to watch her granddaughter's performance as promised at home.
As for Xia Junshan, he was watching attentively and did not make a video call to his old father-in-law like in the play. Although he still respects the old man now, he is not as humble as before.
And I'm a little dissatisfied in my heart. The old man is indeed doting on his two children, but he always holds reunion parties from time to time, which is a bit unbearable.
In the month since Huanhuan went to school, we have already had two gatherings, and she calls almost every weekend. Sometimes it is really impossible to avoid it.
Normally, a grandpa misses his grandson, so it’s not a big deal to take the kids to eat. The key is that Arita Yulan makes people nervous every time.
Last time she had a fit, and she would talk useless things during meals, which made her wife Nan Li very unhappy.
Xia Junshan, the son-in-law, had some things he couldn't say, and a grown man couldn't be as knowledgeable as Tian Yulan, so he was rather critical of the organizer's old father-in-law.
The programs here are performed one after another. Every time when his daughter Huanhuan is hosting, Xia Junshan applauds enthusiastically.
"Pah! Pah! Pah~"
“Huanhuan is great~”
"Oh, hubby, please keep your voice down~" Nan Li felt the eyes of Yiyang around her, and she couldn't bear to look at him.
Xia Junshan ignored him and continued to clap excitedly. Let those people envy him and don't let his daughter be so outstanding.
After a while, it was time for Huanhuan's class performance. This time Nan Li also had an excited expression on her face. Looking at her outstanding daughter on the stage, she was so proud that she didn't know what to say.
"The sunshine wants to penetrate all languages, spring brings friendly stories and legends, the same feeling gives us the same desire, the same joy gives us the same song, the same song~"
After her daughter finished singing, Nan Li clapped as hard as her husband, and she didn't forget to wave to the stage.
After learning that the "same song" sung by his daughter Huanhuan had won the championship, Xia Junshan's eyes moved and he leaned into Nan Li's ear during the award ceremony at the school.
He said softly: "Honey, Huanhuan has won the championship now. You sit here while I buy a bouquet of flowers for the child. When it's over, just wait for me at the stairs~"
"Okay, let's go!" Nan Li nodded and said casually, and then continued to appreciate her daughter's wonderful performance on the stage.
That was so proud. I couldn't even hold it back just now and posted several posts on WeChat Moments, all showing off my daughter.
Here, Xia Junshan trotted all the way to the flower shop outside the school gate, just hoping to see it as soon as he came out after Huanhuan was over.
So after entering the flower shop, I looked around and said straight to the point: "Hello, bring me a bouquet of white roses and a bouquet of tulips, please hurry~"
"Okay, please wait a moment~" the female clerk said and turned around to go to work.
"Sir, your flowers are nice~"
After Xia Junshan paid the bill, he trotted back to school holding two bouquets of flowers. As for why he bought two bouquets, the reason was very simple. His daughter Huanhuan was given as a gift, so naturally his wife Nanli couldn't be left behind.
When I returned to the school auditorium, I didn't go in again, but held on to the stairs and breathed heavily, because it was already announced that it was over, so I just waited at the door.
After a while, people came and went, and soon they saw Nan Li walking over with Huanhuan and Chaochao, and the little girl still had a trophy in her hand.
"Huanhuan, here~" Xia Junshan happily waved his hand over there.
"Dad, look, I won the championship~"
As soon as Huanhuan saw her father, she immediately ran over happily, shaking the trophy, and then hugged her father's waist.
Seeing this, Xia Junshan leaned down and reached out to help his daughter tidy up her hair that was messed up while running together, and then handed the tulip over.
"Huanhuan, you performed so well just now. Congratulations on winning the championship. This flower is for you~"
"Thank you, Dad~" The little girl was very happy after taking the flowers.
Then I felt a little confused, so I pointed to the remaining bouquet of roses in my father's hand.
"What about this?"
"Of course this is for mom. She has been helping you rehearse these days. That's a lot of hard work and she must be rewarded~"
Xia Junshan stood up directly as he spoke and handed the rose in his hand to his wife who was smiling beside her.
"Honey, this is for you~"
Although Nan Li was happy after taking the flowers, she still pretended to be reserved.
"Oh my God, I just bought it for Huanhuan. Why did you buy a bunch for me? What a waste of money. Don't do this again~"
"That's not okay. I just want to buy flowers for my most beautiful wife in the world, Nan Li. I will fight with anyone who wants to stop me!" After Xia Junshan said this, he deliberately pretended to be unhappy.
Next to him, Huanhuan hugged his younger brother, snickering "hehe", and Chaochao even pretended to cover his eyes with his little hands.
When Nan Li heard these disgusting words and the laughter of the two children, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed, so she blushed and rolled her eyes at him.
But I don’t know how happy I am in my heart, and I also feel very proud, because among my friends of the same age, which one has lived as happy as his own? Who at 37 has ever received flowers from her husband?
The family went home happily. Nan Li, the co-pilot, made another video call to her mother on the way.
"Mom, are you at home?"
"I'm shopping for groceries in the supermarket. Where are the two little babies Huanhuan and Chaochao?" Zhao Na asked while pushing the shopping cart and looking at the mobile phone screen.
Nan Li didn't know if it was because she was happy to receive the flowers from her husband, but she even showed her rare coquettishness to her mother in front of her husband and children.
"Mom, why have you changed now? You are calling two little darlings, and you are ignoring me, the big darling?"
"Hey, you're almost 40, can you stop being so disgusting?"
"I haven't celebrated my birthday yet, I'm only 36 now!"
The mother and daughter chatted for a few more words, and Nan Li also explained the purpose of the call.
"Mom, Junshan and I will pick you up later. Huanhuan and Chaochao have been clamoring for hot pot last night, so we can celebrate~"
"Okay, then you guys go directly to your home and I'll send back the things you bought~" After that, Zhao Na hung up the phone.
