Huang Ling and Song Ying went to work the night shift, so he and the children will be home again tonight.

He got off work a little late today, and by the time he got back, Ah Ling had already gone to work.

Upon entering the house, I saw a one-yuan coin on the table, along with a note in neat handwriting: "Chaoying, use this money to buy some fresh meat and vegetables first thing tomorrow morning."

Zhuang Chaoying looked at the note and carefully put the money away.

Zhuang Tunan stood up in the small house. "Dad, there's still some rice left in the pot; it should still be warm."

Zhuang Chaoying nodded, took the rice out of the pot, ate it, and then washed the bowl.

Seeing Zhuang Tunan reading a book in the room, he said, "Tunan, your hair has grown long. Let Dad cut it for you."

Zhuang Tunan looked up: "Dad, are you good at this? How about I cut Mom's hair after she rests?"

Zhuang Chaoying smiled, waved the manual hair clipper in her hand, and pulled Tu Nan towards the backyard: "Okay, why not? Take off all your clothes, just wear your underwear. Dad will boil water for you, and you can take a shower after the haircut!"

Zhuang Tunan sat shirtless on a chair in the backyard with his arms crossed.

Just then, Zhuang Xiaoting came skipping and hopping over.

Zhuang Tunan quickly called out, "Xiaoting, don't come over, go back to your book!"

"Dad, please cut my brother's hair nicer!"

Zhuang Chaoying turned around and gently patted Xiaoting's shoulder: "Xiaoting, come inside."

Then he began to focus on cutting Tu Nan's hair.

He held a comb in one hand, and as the scissors moved, hair kept falling onto Tunan's shoulders.

Zhuang Tunan suddenly sneezed. "Achoo! Dad, are you done cutting your hair?"

"It'll be done soon, don't move, if you move you'll have to shave your head bald!"

As Zhuang Chaoying spoke, she carefully compared the two sides of Tu Nan's hair. "All done, Tu Nan, Xiao Ting, bring the mirror over."

Zhuang Chaoying took an old towel and helped Tu Nan brush off his hair.

Upon hearing the call, Xiaoting immediately ran over with a mirror and held it high.

Zhuang Tunan looked at himself in the mirror and noticed that his hair was the same as his father's, a buzz cut about two centimeters long. He frowned and said, "Dad, the slicked-back hair and middle part are in style now. Why did you cut my hair the same as yours?"

Zhuang Chaoying brought over a bucket of water: "You brat, a buzz cut is the real test of a man's looks. Look how handsome you are! Hurry up and take the water to wash up!"

Zhuang Chaoying watched her son go into the bathroom, then washed the stubble of hair from her hands with soap before returning to the house.

Just as I sat down and picked up my pen to write something, I heard Zhuang Tunan's voice from the backyard: "Dad, get me a pair of underwear!"

That kid washes pretty fast!

Zhuang Chaoying put down her pen, got up and rummaged through the wardrobe, taking out a pair of Tu Nan's underwear.

As they walked into the backyard, they saw that the south gate was ajar, and a head was peeking out with a shy expression: "Dad, hurry up!"

"Give."

Zhuang Chaoying handed over the underwear, and a hand quickly reached out from the crack in the door and took the underwear inside.

Zhuang Chaoying smiled and thought to herself, "This kid's getting shy. He's seen it all before."

However, since Tu Nan started high school, he has grown quite a bit taller. I estimate he's about 1.7 meters tall now. At this rate, he'll catch up with me in a while.

Moreover, this kid has quite a muscular build, much more handsome than he appears on TV dramas.

Zhuang Chaoying unconsciously touched her face. With such handsome parents, their son couldn't possibly be ugly.

...

Zhuang Chaoying boiled another pot of water. "Xiaoting, your brother is done washing. Dad carried the water to the bathroom for you. Wash yourself by yourself, and remember to lock the door."

Xiaoting carried a basin of water containing a towel and soap: "Dad, come inside quickly."

After the two children finished bathing, they lay in bed. Zhuang Chaoying pulled the light cord, and the room instantly went dark.

Zhuang Chaoying lay on her bed, tossing and turning, straddling the blanket.

I feel so empty and sad when Lingjie isn't around!

Half-asleep, Zhuang Chaoying slowly opened her eyes, a new day beginning.

He fumbled to put on his glasses, and when he looked closely, it was almost six o'clock. He hurriedly got up, knowing that the fresh vegetables would soon be sold out, and quickly put on his clothes.

He called out from outside the door, "Mr. Lin, going to buy groceries?"

"coming!"

Lin Wufeng responded and took the basin outside.

He went to his familiar breakfast stall and bought four bowls of steaming hot soy milk and ten fried dough sticks. Knowing that Huang Ling loved plum blossom cakes, he specially bought some for her so she could eat them right after get off work.

I bought two pounds of lean meat, a small bunch of bok choy, and four carrots.

After breakfast, Zhuang Tunan pushed his bicycle, greeted Zhuang Chaoying, and hurried off to school, while Dongzhe and Xiaoting went to the bus stop together to wait for the bus.

Zhuang Chaoying walked to school at a leisurely pace.

At the school gate, students greeted him warmly. "Good morning, Director Zhuang!"

I nodded and walked into the school.

Teachers coming and going greeted Zhuang Chaoying: "Good morning, Teacher Liu!"

When I was in school, I hated the dean of students the most because I felt they were always interfering in everything. But now I've become the dean of students myself, doing the same things that students hate but have to do every day.

When making her rounds, Zhuang Chaoying tiptoed into the classroom.

I immediately noticed several students in the back row looking down, engrossed in reading magazines and novels.

He sighed, stepped forward, and confiscated all the magazines and novels.

Now that the world is more open, all sorts of new ideas are emerging like a tidal wave, and it's simply impossible to completely suppress them.

Moreover, the more teachers forbid students from doing or seeing certain things, the more curious and eager these teenagers become to try them.

Moreover, the principal has given a strict order to prevent this from happening and to strictly guard against early romantic relationships, fearing that the love stories in the book will corrupt these students!

Zhuang Chaoying was also quite helpless; this situation was always difficult to stop!

Call the homeroom teachers of each class to the office.

Looking at the homeroom teachers of each class sitting in their chairs with their different expressions, Zhuang Chaoying slowly spoke: "Teachers, these are the magazines and novels I confiscated during my morning rounds. Tell me, how can you expect students to focus on their studies? Also, when I left work, I saw some boys and girls walking too close together at the school gate."

Teacher Liu pushed up her glasses: "Director, prevention is worse than cure. As teachers, we should provide proper guidance!"

Upon hearing this, Teacher Wang immediately stood up and retorted somewhat excitedly, "Teacher Liu, how can we open a door? These students are incredibly bold. If you give them even a small opening, they'll tear the door down!"

For a moment, the office was filled with a heated discussion, with everyone expressing their opinions and racking their brains for a better way to manage the students.

Zhuang Chaoying sat in her chair, listening to the teachers' speeches, her fingers rhythmically tapping on the table.

Zhuang Chaoying was also extremely troubled.

He was not unfamiliar with these novels; many of them were excellent works that could help students accept new ideas and cultivate literary thinking. However, excessive immersion in them would definitely affect their studies.
