Chapter 886: Chapter 886 Where Can I Find the Heart to be Cruel

Suizi repeated expressionlessly, her voice filled with a gritting resentment.

"Two hundred catties of Chinese cabbage, 10 free-range chickens."

She would never forget the way her teacher looked at her.

"How could they possibly have the strength? They’re just children. I’m not saying I never picked them up. Although the kindergarten and the Research Institute are next to each other, the distance between the two gates is quite far; it takes several minutes to walk there."

Jiaojiao found it unbelievable.

Let alone children from a kindergarten.

Even she would need several minutes to walk there, let alone move two hundred catties of Chinese cabbage.

Such small children couldn’t possibly have moved it all at once, could they? If they had to go back and forth several times, wouldn’t they collapse from exhaustion?

Xiao Pang had already grabbed Bobo’s hand and was studying it. Could it be that these kids possessed some kind of superhuman strength?

Yu Jingting, who had been eavesdropping with perked ears, chuckled, put down his broom, came over, and, with his hands behind his back, he looked at the children as if inspecting his territory.

"Wow, making quite the commotion, aren’t they?" If his wife wasn’t there, he would probably have praised the children.

Suizi glared at him. In her view, until the motive was clear, the nature of the act was deplorable, not at all funny.

"How did they manage to do it? Carrying cabbages back and forth, the gatekeeper couldn’t have failed to see, right?"

Xiao Pang was sure now, Bobo’s hand was soft, just like any ordinary baby’s.

Both the kindergarten and the Research Institute had gatekeepers, and both were particularly responsible. How could they have allowed two such small children to pull off such a feat?

"Carrying them would have been noticed, but what if the cabbages had ’flown across the river,’ flying through the air?" Suizi replied irritably.

Usually, two teachers would watch over the children during naptime at the kindergarten.

Today, one was on leave, and the other, feeling unwell, also lay down and dozed off while watching the children sleep.

When she woke up, all the other children were there, except for the boy and girl twins.

The girl twin, being exceptionally energetic with an overwhelming vivacity, always warranted the teachers to regard such children as "vip offspring" and keep a constant eye on them.

Luoluo’s bed was right next to the teacher’s desk.

The child disappeared right under the teacher’s nose.

At first, the teacher thought she had, as before, led her brother off to play on the playground slide. The last time they had chided Luoluo, she had a valid argument.

She had said that the kindergarten had so many amenities, yet they weren’t allowed to play. Only when someone from above came for an inspection would they get the children to go up to show for it.

Sitting there, they would just rust in the rain, so she and her brother were helping to look after them, to prevent the play equipment from getting lonely.

This rebuttal left the teachers speechless.

The boy and girl twins were miraculous beings, with high attractiveness and especially smart, knowledgeable, and articulate beyond their years. Sometimes they recited poems and songs even the teachers had never heard of, clearly children from a learned family.

But such children, playful and mischievous as they were, sometimes overwhelmed the teachers, who found themselves both loving and unable to stay mad at them. When they couldn’t manage, they could only call on the twins’ young, beautiful, well-read, and sensible mother to come over.

This time, the teacher thought the twins had gone to play on the slide again, but they were nowhere to be found.

They couldn’t be found anywhere in the kindergarten.

The gatekeeper said he hadn’t seen the two children leave either.

Two live children had vanished into thin air!

This scared the teacher out of her wits. She looked up and was stupefied.

The kindergarten and the Research Institute were adjacent; although the gates were distant, the main building’s entrance hall of the kindergarten was right next to the balcony of the Research Institute.

They were both on the same level, separated by a wall of the courtyard, with a gap of more than a meter in between.

At that moment, the boy and girl twins stood one atop the entrance hall of the kindergarten, the other on the balcony of the Research Institute.

A "wooden plank bridge" had been set up between them.

The wooden plank was thin and light, incapable of bearing the weight of a child, but when it came to handling cabbages and strolling chickens, there were no issues.

The balcony of the Research Institute was slightly higher than the kindergarten side, so after laying down the plank, it formed a slope.

As chance would have it, the Research Institute’s cafeteria was drying cabbages, readying to pickle them into sauerkraut. Standing on the Research Institute balcony, Luoluo grabbed a cabbage, uttered "off you go," and the cabbage rolled down to the kindergarten side.

Bobo caught it seamlessly, pushed it to the side, and waited for the next one.

When the teacher rushed to the top of the entrance hall, she was utterly stunned by the spectacular scene before her.

Beside Bobo, not only were there heaps of cabbages but also ten squawking chickens scared witless.

Based on the teacher’s description, the situation then was like "feathers flying everywhere, cabbage leaves strewn all over, she stood amidst the wrecked cabbages, feathers atop her head, tears on her face, quietly questioning herself why she ever chose to be a kindergarten teacher..."

With a blank face, Suizi recounted the incident. By the end, she felt a strong empathy with the teacher.

What had the teacher done to deserve this? Encountering such hell-raising kids made her doubt her entire career.

After making a thorough apology at the kindergarten, Suizi not only compensated for the Research Institute’s lost cabbages but also held the teacher’s hand with a heartfelt look, quoting, "The journey is long and winding as tough as iron, yet now we stride anew from the start!"

If you start your career facing such hellish children, how can you be afraid that your career won’t be smooth sailing from then on?

If you can handle these two rascals, what else can possibly stop you?

Be strong!

After giving the teacher a pep talk and soothing her bruised spirit, she got on a tricycle, dumped the bought two hundred taels of cabbages along with the two mischievous kids onto it, and brought them back home.

As humbly as Suizi had apologized to the teacher outside, she was just as furious when she got home.

She viewed the matter as extremely serious; it exceeded previous mischievous behavior. If not dealt with, she feared they would soon become utterly lawless.

After arriving home, she first sent her in-laws, who doted on the kids, away before she erupted, suppressing her anger as she asked the two for their motives.

No matter how she asked, they would only insist they were "conducting research."

"Wow, pretty impressive, huh? Who’s the creative mind that thought of such a labor-saving method? Daddy wasn’t nearly as capable as you when he was little—" Yu Jingting started, but then sensed a murderous aura behind him.

Suizi looked ready to murder someone.

"Cough cough, being capable doesn’t mean you can cause trouble, mischief is always wrong!" the henpecked husband capitulated in an instant.

"Did you not cause trouble when you were little? You’re not exactly a saint now either," Jiaojiao chimed in to defend the twins, the family’s treasured children.

Suizi’s murderous gaze turned to Jiaojiao, startling the chubby hubby into dragging her into the house.

"Jiaojiao, my head is hurting again, come and check it out for me."

"What about my precious niece and nephew then?"

"Yu Jingting is here, don’t you mess around," the chubby hubby said as he hauled Jiaojiao inside.

Suizi stood up with her arms crossed, looming over the two kids facing the wall for their time-out.

She always felt the kids wouldn’t do such a thing just for mischief, as they had been mischievous before but never disrespectful.

The twins stubbornly refused to speak, causing Suizi to turn towards Yu Jingting, squinting her eyes.

"You, get to the bottom of this. I want to know the motive, the motive!! Got it?!"

"Why me?" Yu Jingting, unwilling to be harsh with the children, made his case. "You’ve already said I spoil them with kindness, I can’t bear to be hard on them."

"To spare the rod is the father’s failing, blaming the genes on the tadpole’s doing, whose influence are the children following?"
