As Teacher Jiang finished speaking, all the children looked at Yi Bao, who was sitting on the outermost seat.

The twin brothers, Lin Haizhi and Lin Hairui, were sitting next to each other.

Although they couldn’t tell the twins apart, they all remembered the teacher’s words.

When Yi Bao heard his name called, he instinctively stood up, looking somewhat puzzled at the teacher.

He didn’t have a question to ask.

Even Er Bao’s curiosity was piqued, and he looked at his brother.

Teacher Jiang was also taken aback. “Lin Hairui, I called Lin Haizhi, your brother, not you.”

Yi Bao then remembered that he and Er Bao had switched seats.

He wanted to sit down because he and Er Bao had switched seats, but he felt that deceiving the teacher was not right.

“Hahaha…” Er Bao burst into laughter. “Teacher, you’re wrong. This is my brother, Lin Haizhi, and I’m Lin Hairui. Hahaha…”

Teacher Jiang was at a loss for words. This child… really made her laugh and cry.

She had just said yesterday that the older brother would protect the younger brother, so they sat on the outside.

Today, they had switched seats, and she felt embarrassed.

She wasn’t angry, just… embarrassed.

“Teacher, didn’t you say the older brother would sit on the outside?”

“Teacher, you didn’t guess who was the older brother and who was the younger brother today.”

“Teacher…”

“Teacher…”

The other children also chimed in.

Teacher Jiang sighed. “Students, today I called the wrong name, but this incident also teaches us a lesson. Do you know what lesson it is?”

“Huh?” Question marks seemed to pop up on the heads of the children.

“Teacher, what lesson is it?” some of the children asked.

Teacher Jiang explained, “It shows that our twins are very smart, they can adapt to unexpected situations.”

What’s ‘adapt to unexpected situations’? The children couldn’t understand.

“Alright, the one who raised their hand just now is Lin Hairui, the twin brother. Now, let’s hear Lin Hairui’s question,” Teacher Jiang swiftly moved on from the topic.

As Yi Bao sat down, Erbao stood up.

He grinned widely, his smile innocent and naive.

Erbao asked, “Teacher, did you sleep with your parents when you were six?” Erbao thought to himself, if the teacher didn’t sleep with her parents when she was six, then they might not need to either.

But if she did, then he could protest at night to sleep with his mother.

If his dad disagreed, he could say the teacher suggested it. Surely, his dad would listen to the teacher.

Teacher Jiang: “…”

She felt like she might have caused trouble this year.

However, Erbao’s question resonated with many of the other children.

Some of the children empathized, “My parents don’t sleep with me anymore. They don’t like it.”

“My parents too. They said if they slept with me, there wouldn’t be any younger siblings, but I want younger siblings.”

“I still sleep with my mom.”

“I also sleep with my mom. I don’t sleep with my dad because he snores heavily, really heavily,” whispered the children, revealing some intimate details about their homes.

Teacher Jiang: “…”

She felt like she stumbled upon some incredible secrets.

Was this something a preschool teacher should be hearing?

“Hmm…” Teacher Jiang interrupted the children’s conversation, “Lin Hairui, when I was six, I didn’t sleep with my parents anymore because I had grown up and could sleep by myself. I was becoming a little adult.”

She had long forgotten how it was when she was six, but Lin Hairui’s question reminded her of the reasons behind it.

It was simply that parents didn’t want to sleep with their children, but the children wanted to sleep with their parents.

As a good teacher, she could only compromise with the parents.

If she said six-year-old children should sleep with their parents, she felt like the parents of the children in Class 3 would all come talk to her tomorrow.

Being a preschool teacher was supposed to be the easiest job, yet why did it feel more exhausting than being a high school teacher?

Hearing that the teacher also slept by herself when she was six, Lin Erbao was convinced. “Thank you, teacher, I understand now,” he said happily, sitting down with sparkling eyes, as bright and radiant as sunshine.

Teacher Jiang had never seen such a lively and vibrant child before.

He was full of vitality and resilience.

“Do any other children have questions? You’re welcome to ask,” Teacher Jiang withdrew her gaze from Lin Erbao and looked towards the other children.

“Teacher, I have a question,” one of the boys raised his hand.

Lin YiBao recognized him; he was the one who stood in front of Sanbao during the tug-of-war competition yesterday.

Teacher Jiang said, “Xuejun, please go ahead.”

Xuejun stood up, “Teacher, my dad and mom always argue at night. My dad even hits my mom. But every time I find out, they lie to me, saying they weren’t arguing, that they’re just planning on having a younger brother or sister. Why do they want to have a younger sibling when they’re arguing?”

Teacher Jiang: “…”

This question needed a discussion with Xuejun’s mom before she could answer. “How about this, when you go home after school today, tell your mom to come see me at my place after dinner, okay?”

“Okay,” Xuejun felt relieved hearing the teacher’s response.

He believed that after his mom talked to the teacher, she wouldn’t argue with his dad anymore.

Lin Erbao immediately raised his hand again, “Teacher, teacher, can I ask another question?”

Teacher Jiang was a bit wary of his question, so she said, “Each child can only ask one question, okay?”

Seeing this, Lin YiBao whispered to Lin Er, “What do you want to ask?”

“Teacher, I want to ask where your house is,” Lin Erbao whispered.

Though they thought they were whispering quietly, the children sitting in front of them heard.

One of them turned around and whispered back, “I know where Teacher Jiang lives. After school, I can take you there.”

The child only knew the way but didn’t know how to explain it.

“Okay, thank you,” Lin Erbao replied.

“What are you going to Teacher Jiang’s house for?” the curious child asked.

“I’m not going to do anything. I just want to know where Teacher Jiang lives so that when my parents fight, I can go to Teacher Jiang,” Lin Erbao explained.

The other child’s eyes lit up, “Right! If my parents argue, I can go to Teacher Jiang too.”

These children spoke quietly and sat at the back, plus there were other children talking, so Teacher Jiang didn’t know what they were discussing.

After the Q&A session, Teacher Jiang returned to her office.

Next was the children’s free time.

Bella came over to the twins, “Twins, do you want to play the ‘Beat the Invaders’ game?”

The twins usually played ‘Eagle Catches Chicks’ the most, so they hadn’t played ‘Beat the Invaders’ before.

It sounded intriguing, so they both agreed without needing to discuss.

“Then let’s go outside,” Bella called a few other children too.

Being twins and new to the kindergarten, the other children were fascinated by them, so they always wanted to include them in games.

Bella led a group of several children, including the twins, to the playground, totaling twelve kids.

They first chose two leaders, who then played rock-paper-scissors to decide.

The winner picked their teammates to play as Liberation Army soldiers, while the loser and the remaining children played as the invaders.

Bella won and chose to play as a Liberation Army soldier, picking the twins for her team.

Then Bella explained to Yi Bao and Erbao, “In the game of ‘Invaders Enter the Village,’ there are six villagers and six invaders.

It’s a one-on-one match.

You hop on one foot with the other foot raised in front.

Then you use your hand to grab the ankle of the raised foot and use the knee of the raised foot to bump the opponent until they can’t stand anymore,

both feet touching the ground, which means they’ve lost.

In our game, losing means you’re ‘dead.’ The winner can rest or challenge the next person…

until everyone on the other side is ‘dead,’ then one side wins,” she explained, demonstrating as she spoke.

Yi Bao and Erbao understood.

Erbao asked, “Is there a punishment for losing?”

They all looked at each other, as they had never had a punishment before.

But having a punishment for losing sounded interesting.

One of the kids asked, “So, what’s the punishment for losing?”

Erbao had a clever idea, “The loser has to bring out all the snacks they have today, and then we winners can feast.”

“Eat a feast?” Bella didn’t understand. “What does that mean?”

“In our village, when someone dies, there’s a feast. The loser brings out all the food for the winner to feast on,” Lin Er explained.

Upon hearing that the losers had to bring out snacks for the winners, several children agreed enthusiastically. “I’ll go get some snacks,” they all wanted to win.

“I have some, I brought small cookies today.”

“I brought White Rabbit candies.”

“I brought peanuts.”

The children rushed into the classroom and brought out their snacks.

The twins also had something; they hadn’t eaten the small bread rolls their mother gave them in the morning.

Because Sanbao was too young to compete he was in the sideline.

So Lin Bao and Lin Er brought out their bread rolls.

The twelve children put their snacks together, making quite a collection, resembling a feast.

Then the two teams of six started competing.

Bella was the first to go.

The twins immediately clapped their hands.

Bella was strong; she even won at tug-of-war.

They thought she would be formidable, so they cheered her on loudly,

“Go Bella… Go Bella…”

However, Bella lost in no time.

The twins were dumbfounded.

It’s quite understandable, really.

Bella was chubby and heavy, so when she was standing on one foot, she couldn’t balance well and easily lost.

Because Bella lost so quickly, the player from the other team eliminated one of the kids from their team before taking a break.

In the end, Bella’s team lost.

So, the six members of Bella’s team lay on the ground, pretending to be dead, while the other team’s six members sat beside them, feasting.

Erbao’s eyes wandered left and right, looking like he couldn’t believe what just happened!
