Chapter 156 Home Visit Stop 1: Xiao Zhao’s House with Shiny Floors

The first family that Lin Qinglan decided to visit was Aunt Li and Uncle Zhao. The strange thing was that they were the ones who "voluntarily signed up" and actively requested that their home be visited first.

It was also the first time she had seen such a strange request. When standing at the door of Aunt Li and Uncle Zhao's house, Lin Qinglan almost slipped on the shiny floor.

No wonder he called her over so anxiously, it turned out that the place had already been cleaned.

When I opened the door, I saw Uncle Zhao and Aunt Li's son Xiao Zhao wearing an apron, holding a rag in one hand and a mop in the other. Hot water was boiling in the kitchen.

"Principal Lin is here. Mom and Dad are going to get your principal a glass of water."

"Really? The principal is here and you two are still staying in the room. This is outrageous." Xiao Zhao knocked on the door angrily and found the old couple studying quietly in the room.

Xiao Zhao was dumbfounded. How could his parents be more pretentious than him?

He immediately changed his expression and knocked on the door in a soft voice: "Dear Mom and Dad, put the book down first and study later."

"The principal is here, come out and say hello, don't keep him waiting so long."

Xiao Zhao turned back awkwardly, pretending to be helpless: "There's nothing I can do. They are like this at home. They love studying so much that I can't persuade them."

"Especially after attending the senior citizens' university, their enthusiasm for learning has been particularly high. Of course, it is all thanks to the good teachers. I would say that they made the right choice to choose our school."

Xiao Zhao didn't expect his parents to give him so much face, and he talked endlessly when he was happy.

Lin Qinglan couldn't get a word in.

In the room, Uncle Zhao asked Aunt Li with some doubt: "Can we really do this?"

"It's not like our son doesn't know what we do at home. Can he believe that we are studying?"

Aunt Li took away Uncle Zhao's upside-down book and said angrily, "I told you to pretend, but you can't do it."

"It doesn't matter whether our son believes it or not. What matters is that he won't expose us in front of Principal Lin, nor will he say bad things about us."

"He also wants Principal Lin to have a good impression of our family."

"You can't even understand this. I wonder what's going on in your head all day long?"

Uncle Zhao nodded, not quite understanding, "Will Principal Lin believe it? I didn't study hard in school. Do you think she will believe that I can turn over a new leaf when I go home?"

"I don't know about that. After all, I performed well in school and Principal Kobayashi had a good impression of me." Aunt Li said she was helpless to help.

"Our square dance class will soon represent the school to go to the provincial TV station to arrange a program. Unlike someone who ranked last in the planting class, I don't need to worry."

Uncle Zhao defended himself: "Be more precise, I am not the last one, I am tied for last one with Lao Wang."

"It makes no difference. You should continue to pretend not to know me next semester. I'm afraid people will think too much." Aunt Li happily went out to hug Principal Kobayashi.

"Son, why does Principal Xiao Lin have to stand?" Aunt Li pulled Lin Qinglan to sit down and grabbed a handful of melon seeds.

"Principal Xiaolin, come and let's eat and talk."

Lin Qinglan sat down obediently. Unable to refuse, she took a handful of melon seeds and held them in her hand.

Xiao Zhao also put down his rag and mop and called Uncle Zhao out.

Aunt Li and Uncle Zhao sat on the left and right, squeezing Xiao Zhao in the middle, and Lin Qinglan sat opposite them.

In the quiet air, the crunching sound of Uncle Zhao cracking melon seeds was particularly harsh.

He held up the plate and called out to everyone: "Eat, why aren't you eating?"

Uncle Zhao was relaxed, and Xiao Zhao swallowed nervously, "Principal Lin, let's chat about something."

Lin Qinglan nodded and was about to ask the routine questions she had prepared, when she saw Xiao Zhao's voice trembling, as if he was gathering up the courage to ask, "Principal Lin, what do you do for a living?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience fell silent.

Lin Qinglan hesitated and said, "I should be doing home visits, right?"

Uncle Zhao and Aunt Li attacked at the same time, elbowing the still confused Xiao Zhao, "Do you know how to ask? Ask something else."

"How old are you, Principal?"

"Ah? Do you have to say that?"

Lin Qinglan remembered that she came for a home visit, so how come she met someone who was investigating household registration?

She wants to take back the initiative in home visits.

She handed Xiao Zhao the registration form to be filled out.

Xiao Zhao took it with both hands reverently and filled it out stroke by stroke.

But his mind was still blank, and he turned back blankly: "Dad, how old are you this year?"

……

At the same time, the next family that Lin Qinglan was going to visit, Mr. Qian, was on the road to "escape".

He, his son, daughter-in-law and grandson Qian Dabao were all in the car.

The car didn't start, and the family just sat quietly in the dark garage, no one spoke.

Dabao, who didn't know the truth, cheered excitedly: "Dad, are we going out to play?"

"No, we're going out to get out of the spotlight."

Uncle Qian's son Xiao Qian was holding the steering wheel, looking ready to die.

"Dad, where are we going?"

"You can go anywhere, just don't stay at home."

"Dad, why can't we just stay home, are we going on an adventure?"

"Don't ask so many questions, kid. If you continue asking, you will be asked to go home with your grandfather and wait for the principal to come for a home visit."

There were many questions in Dabao's little head. Children are always determined to get to the bottom of things. He kept a calm expression. Uncle Qian, who was playing games, asked curiously: "Grandpa, are you not doing well in school?"

Uncle Qian couldn't destroy his image in his grandson's heart, so he chose to destroy his son's image: "Dabao, it's not that Grandpa behaved badly. Grandpa is not afraid of the principal, it's your dad who is afraid."

"Your father is too cowardly. He doesn't dare to meet Principal Lin."

"Why is Dad afraid of home visits..." Dabao wanted to ask more, but the phone rang. Uncle Qian quickly covered Dabao's mouth and signaled him not to speak.

Xiao Qian turned her head and looked at her wife and Aunt Qian for help, but the two of them were staring at their phones with vague eyes and refused to look at Xiao Qian.

Everyone pretended not to hear, but Xiao Qian knew he couldn't avoid this call today.

As the most reliable person in the "Mobile Family", Xiao Qian took a deep breath and answered the phone: "Hello, Principal, it's me, it's me."

"Yes, yes, we are not at home. We really have something to do and cannot come back today."

"It's really unfortunate that you can't come to visit my home. I feel sorry for that."

"I understand my dad's situation. Don't worry, I will definitely urge him to finish his homework at home."

"Okay, okay. I'm sorry to trouble you, Principal. Goodbye."

Xiao Qian covered the phone and lied with his eyes open.

After hanging up the phone, I breathed a sigh of relief.

When faced with home visits, the children all come up with their own unique strategies.

Another family, Mr. Shi, who has a cute baby, decided to let his 3-year-old grandson Lele handle home visits.
