House Dad's Literary Life Chapter 310

Chapter 310 – Xixi in Wonderland

On Monday, Yang Yi accompanied Xixi to the kindergarten. Today, he was going to tell a story to all the children at the Chuntian Kindergarten, which was a great experience.

After accepting Teacher Mu’s invitation, Yang Yi carefully prepared. Not only did he adapt the original story, but he also used a computer to draw some colored ill.u.s.trations to help the children understand.

“Uncle Yang Yi!” Before it even started, Yang Yi received a warm welcome from the children in the middle cla.s.s. Lan Xin, Yang Luoqi, Chen s.h.i.+yun, and Nan Zhaoyu were all excitedly surrounding Yang Yi, competing to hold Yang Yi’s hand, as if they wouldn’t be able to walk without holding his hands.

At first, Xixi was very proud, but not long after, the little girl became a bit jealous. She ran over and hugged her father’s leg, pouting and saying, “This is my Papa, don’t s.n.a.t.c.h my Papa!”

The little girl didn’t know that if she hadn’t always portrayed her father as omnipotent, her little friends wouldn’t have adored Yang Yi like a superhero!

Finally, Yang Yi, surrounded by children, arrived at the large cla.s.sroom of the kindergarten. The cla.s.sroom was very large, filled with small chairs. Teachers from different grades stood and instructed their students to sit down in rows.

These hundreds of children were chattering, each saying something, and the large cla.s.sroom was almost turned upside down by the noise.

Fortunately, the projector was turned on by Yang Yi and the kindergarten teachers. A magical ill.u.s.tration was projected onto the white screen in front, which immediately made the children forget about the noise and focus on the ill.u.s.tration.

The ill.u.s.tration showed many mushrooms as tall as trees, a crooked forest, and a lush green gra.s.sy background. There were also many strange characters interspersed throughout.

There was a beautiful little girl wearing a princess dress, of course, with black hair and black eyes.

There was a white rabbit with pink eyes, but it was wearing a blue suit jacket, looking very serious.

There was a clown with a tall hat, red curly hair, and dressed in gorgeous, even somewhat flamboyant clothes.

There was a queen character with red hair, blue eye shadow, and an extremely arrogant expression.

And, the one that attracted the children’s attention the most, a short-haired cat with a large head floating in the sky, with huge eyes and a big mouth shaped like a crescent moon.

“Xiao Hui! It’s Xiao Hui!” Lan Xin, who often goes to Xixi’s house to play, recognized it and exclaimed excitedly.

“Yes! It’s Xiao Hui!” Xixi giggled, the little girl thought it was fun.

Yang Yi finally stepped onto the stage, with no podium blocking the children’s view. He directly faced pairs of innocent and pure eyes, and all the children’s attention was focus on him.

“Children, it’s an honored to be invited…” Yang Yi said a few polite words and went straight to the point. “Today, Uncle will tell you a very, very magical story. The name of the story is ‘Xixi in Wonderland’!”

The children below the stage were already attracted by the big pie drawn by Yang Yi, “very, very magical”, and they all looked forward to it. On the other hand, Xixi was happily twisting and turning on her small chair. When she heard the name, the little girl finally realized that she was the main character!

“So, one day, Xixi and her sister Ding Xiang were sitting by the river. Ding Xiang was reading a book, and Xixi felt very bored. She secretly glanced at the book her sister was reading and thought to herself, ‘Oh, why is the book my sister is reading so boring? It’s all incomprehensible words, not even a single ill.u.s.tration!'”

Yang Yi’s opening resonated with some of the children. However, the story was even more exciting. Soon, the image projected behind Yang Yi changed, and a rabbit with pink eyes wearing a suit vest appeared on the screen.

Rabbits were the cutest! All the children liked rabbits!

“Just when Xixi didn’t know what to do, suddenly a little white rabbit hopped and ran past her. Xixi suddenly regained her energy and was curious about how there could be such a rabbit. It could wear clothes and even say. ‘Oh my, I’m going to be late!'” Yang Yi vividly performed the rabbit’s tone.

The children, who were already completely attracted, stared at Yang Yi intently. Hundreds of children were quietly listening to the story. This could also be considered a miracle!

The scene changed again, showing the little girl’s panicked expression as she fell into the rabbit hole.

“Xixi was very curious, so she quickly followed to see what was going on with the little white rabbit! But the little white rabbit suddenly hopped into a large rabbit hole, and Xixi followed it inside. However, she didn’t expect that the hole actually a well, and she fell straight down.”

At the most critical moment, Yang Yi stopped, coughed twice, and said, “Children, you must remember, never go to those dangerous places, don’t learn from Xixi!”

Below the stage, Xixi pouted her little mouth, mumbling reluctantly, “I didn’t go to a dangerous place!”

The story continued. Yang Yi talked about Xixi sliding out of the rabbit hole and entering a strange hall. “The rabbit had disappeared, and Xixi wanted to get out of this strange place. However, Xixi searched and searched, only finding a small golden key. The big doors couldn’t be opened, and Xixi found a door that the key could open, but it was too small for Xixi and she couldn’t get out. She saw a very beautiful garden outside, with beautiful flowers and beautiful fountains. It was much more beautiful than this place!”

“What should we do?” Yang Yi created a bit of suspense, raising the children’s interest.

“Shall we go back?” Nan Zhaoyu raised his hand and said weakly.

“But we can’t go back. The hole can’t be climbed up,” Yang Yi smiled.

Looking at the little ones with worried expression on their faces, Yang Yi didn’t tease them anymore. He immediately talked about Xixi drinking the shrinking potion, not being able to get the key, and having to eat the growing cake. As a result, she became very big, and her tears almost flooded the hall.

The following events became increasingly bizarre. Xixi scared away the little rabbit, but because of the rabbit’s fan, she became small again and fell into her own tears. She then met a talking mouse…

Yang Yi told the story for the whole morning, leaving his mouth dry. Fortunately, he had streamlined the plot, and just before lunch, he finished telling the story of “Xixi in Wonderland”.

Even so, hundreds of children listened with rapt attention, wis.h.i.+ng they were Xixi in the story, able to adventure in a dreamlike wonderland!

Even so, Yang Yi’s performance today was outstanding. The kindergarten organized a lecture once a month, and it was rare to be so warmly received by the children. After finis.h.i.+ng, Yang Yi was surrounded by a group of children. They all forgot about their hunger and looked at Yang Yi eagerly. “Uncle Yang Yi, do you have more stories?”

“Everyone, let’s go eat first. Next time, if there’s a chance, Uncle Yang Yi will tell you more stories!” Yang Yi had to coax the little ones, and his daughter couldn’t even get close.

Xixi was actually surrounded by her little friends. The children in the middle cla.s.s had excited expressions on their faces. They excited asked Xixi, “Xixi, have you really been to such a fun place? Can you take me with you to play?”

Such a fun place, Xixi also wanted to go!

The little girl had to work hard to explain to her friends that she hadn’t been there, but if her father took her there to play, she would definitely tell them.

With the help of a few teachers, Yang Yi finally walked out from the circle of children. He happened to hear the conversation between Xixi and her friends. He smiled slightly and said, “Don’t worry, there will be. Uncle will build a big wonderland world, and then invite all the children to play together.”

“Really?” A group of children, including Xixi, exclaimed in surprise.

“Of course it’s true, only dogs would lie to you! Uncle promises to keep his word!” Although it was just a promise for now, Yang Yi was not bragging.”
