Chapter 193: Chapter 193: Daddy Also Needs to Learn
Next up.
Professor Lin and Xiao Fei continued their discussion.
"I’ll be very strict with you."
Professor Lin adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose.
"I heard from Teacher Tang that your English is excellent, and you even know quite a few other languages?"
"That’s true."
Professor Lin nodded.
"Good. Most research papers and academic reports are in English, so your English must be up to standard."
"During the first semester of your first year of graduate school, you need to pass all required foundational tests, including the English test."
"Starting from the second year, I won’t insist on you coming to the lab every day, but I’ll still assign you research tasks and directions."
"If there’s anything you don’t understand, come ask me. You can arrange the specific timing yourself. There’s only one requirement: during your second year, you must publish a sufficient number of papers... and not just quantity for its own sake; I want papers of real quality."
This requirement...
was already far more demanding than the average master’s degree program.
But Xiao Fei thought about it and realized that it wasn’t an issue.
"Do you know why I’m asking you to learn everything in advance?"
"Why?"
The old professor gestured toward the three babies.
"By the time you’re in your second year, these little ones will be able to go to kindergarten..."
Ah, so that was the reason.
It seemed the professor had considered this particular factor when allowing Xiao Fei to study independently at home.
By the time Xiao Fei truly needed to be in the lab, the three little ones could go to kindergarten during the day, so Xiao Fei wouldn’t have to stay home with them all the time.
"Thank you, Professor Lin."
Facing this thoughtful old professor, Xiao Fei sincerely expressed his gratitude.
"Alright, if you’re really thankful, then study hard and don’t slack off. Otherwise, after I snatched you away from all those other old men, if you end up being mediocre, my reputation will be completely ruined."
After discussing quite a bit of the upcoming study plan with Professor Lin, Xiao Fei thought for a moment and suddenly said, "Professor, how about recommending some books I can use for self-study right now? I’ll start on them in the next couple of days."
"Alright."
Professor Lin was very pleased with Xiao Fei’s attitude and immediately took out a pen and paper to jot down a long list of book titles.
"You can find all these books in our school’s library. Just go and borrow them yourself."
"Thank you, Professor."
After saying goodbye to Professor Lin, the whole family headed to the library.
"Hehe... How’s it, hubby? My recommendation is pretty great, right?"
Tang Yuxin grinned as she spoke to Xiao Fei.
"Not only does it suit our situation, but it also ensures he doesn’t let you off the hook. Instead, his requirements are even stricter, haha..."
"Hello, Teacher Tang!"
"Hello, Senior Brother Xiao!"
At that moment, a student of Tang Yuxin passing by suddenly greeted them.
It was as if Tang Yuxin performed a face-changing act from Sichuan opera; her expression instantly morphed into that of a cold beauty as she turned her head and nodded nonchalantly. But the moment she turned back, she resumed her playful grin.
Xiao Fei was at a loss for words.
This girl really is the embodiment of drama, isn’t she?
At the library, Xiao Fei borrowed all the books recommended by Professor Lin and said goodbye to Tang Yuxin before heading back home.
From then on, apart from providing the babies with early education at home, he also began his own journey of study.
Every day, Xiao Fei would first give a lesson to the babies before letting them play on their own. He’d then make himself a cup of tea and quietly study in his library.
Sometimes, the babies would curiously wander in.
"Papa..."
"What are you doing?"
They would then waddle over to Xiao Fei’s side, looking up at him with wide eyes.
During his self-study, Xiao Fei often wore a pair of non-prescription glasses, which lent him an air of refinement and toned down his intimidating demeanor.
Looking at the little ones curiously peering up at him, Xiao Fei gently said, "Papa is studying too."
"Studying?"
"Yes, just like Papa teaches you pinyin every day. Papa also needs to study."
"Why?"
"Is Papa learning pinyin too?"
It was Er Bao who asked that question.
"Papa isn’t learning pinyin. He’s studying things much harder than pinyin."
As Xiao Fei spoke, he showed the babies a textbook written entirely in English.
The densely packed words on the pages left the babies thoroughly baffled.
"Huh? This is pinyin too!"
Da Bao pointed at the pages and said in his soft, childlike voice.
"Papa is lying."
"No, this isn’t pinyin."
"It isn’t? Are you sure?"
The little ones were puzzled.
Suddenly, Xiao Fei switched to English and said to them, "This is English."
Since Xiao Fei had intentionally introduced them to multilingual education when they were still babbling, the babies could understand simple foreign languages.
"Oh~~~"
Now, the babies finally understood.
"Then Papa, why isn’t anyone teaching you?"
Da Bao asked another question.
This child was full of questions, but Xiao Fei always patiently explained everything to him.
It was a good thing for children to have curiosity.
"Well, you see, learning can be done by being taught by others or by teaching yourself."
"When Papa teaches you, Papa is your teacher. When Papa studies himself, Papa is his own teacher."
"Can we do that too?"
"Of course you can."
Xiao Fei reached out to pat Da Bao’s head.
"Once you’ve learned pinyin, you’ll be able to read and recognize characters on your own."
Hearing Xiao Fei’s words, the three little ones were full of anticipation.
Right now, they didn’t see learning as something annoying...
Because Xiao Fei deliberately guided and educated them, the kids always approached learning as if they were playing a game.
"Papa... Da Bao wants to quickly learn pinyin and teach himself."
Da Bao spoke up suddenly.
Xiao Fei was instantly intrigued.
"Why?"
Da Bao looked at Xiao Fei seriously and said, "Because Da Bao knows that Papa gets tired teaching us every day."
"Once Da Bao can teach himself, Papa can play instead."
This child...
Xiao Fei was deeply moved.
"Me too... moo-mo!"
Er Bao suddenly chimed in!
"I want... to learn pinyin, and then... teach Little Bei! And teach Meow Meow!"
Xiao Fei: "....???"
Huh?
This child wanted to teach the family’s cat and parrot to recognize characters?
Xiao Fei looked at Er Bao amusingly, then at Little Bei.
The little one was dead serious, with not a hint of joking.
Meanwhile, Little Bei seemed totally bewildered...
"Er Bao, are you sure you won’t misteach them?"
Xiao Fei asked with a smile.
"Er Bao is awesome!"
The little one slapped his chest in assurance.
Xiao Fei couldn’t help but chuckle and shake his head.
Thinking about it, the future lives of Little Bei and Xiang Zilan might be pretty chaotic, huh?
