My College Teacher is My Children's Mom

Chapter 316 Teacher's Day!


After dinner, the children played for a while and then went down for their afternoon nap. They fell asleep almost as soon as their heads hit their pillows.

At two in the afternoon, Lin Feng woke the children up. Once he had dressed them, they were all awake.

The third child said softly, "Daddy, I want to sleep a little longer..."

"You can sleep a bit more in the car," Lin Feng replied.

Meanwhile, the second child had dozed off again on Zhang Yuxi. This time, even though the second and third children were reluctant, they didn't resist much. Lin Feng had repeatedly promised that he would definitely come to pick them up, which gave them a sense of security.

Zhang Yuxi had a class in the afternoon and needed to head back.

"Honey, thank you for your hard work!"

"It's no trouble at all!"

When school let out in the afternoon, parents were lined up to pick up their children. Everyone at school knew about the quadruplets, so as their parent, Lin Feng naturally attracted a lot of attention. He stood out in the crowd but was already accustomed to the stares.

After collecting the children, Lin Feng led them toward the parking lot. It was so crowded that he discussed a plan with them. "How about next time Daddy comes a bit later, okay?"

The third child quickly replied, "No!"

Lin Feng thought for a moment. "Alright, how about this? We'll just wait for a little while. We'll leave after most of the people are gone so we don't have to push through the crowd!"

The children had no objections.

Just then, Mr. Li was cleaning up the playground, and Lin Feng went over to chat with her. He asked how the children had done on their first day of school.

"The children all behaved quite well. They were very obedient, and they're all very smart!" Mr. Li praised each one of them, giving special mention to the second and third children. "Today, you were both wonderful and brave kids! You only cried for a little bit before you stopped. You were super brave!"

Having been praised, the second and third children were particularly happy.

Mr. Li smiled and asked, "When you come to school tomorrow, will you still cry?"

The second and third children shook their heads in unison.

"Then let's make that a promise, okay?" Mr. Li said. "I'll be waiting for you in the classroom tomorrow. We'll play games together and tell stories, how does that sound?"

The second and third children nodded their heads firmly.

Lin Feng looked outside. "Children, say goodbye to your teacher. We're heading home!"

The children waved in unison. "Goodbye, Mr. Li!"

Mr. Li said with a smile, "Goodbye, children!"

The second and third child both did very well this time. Because of their promise to their teacher, they didn't mention not wanting to go to school the next day.

...

Back home, after getting the children settled, Lin Feng took them to wash their hands before dinner. He had already prepared the meal around four o'clock, worried the children would be hungry when they returned from school.

Watching each of them tucking into their food, Lin Feng felt the joy of a parent seeing his children growing up. They were in kindergarten already! Time really does fly.

By the time Zhang Yuxi came home, the children had eaten their fill and were playing. Lin Feng was on the balcony hanging up their school uniforms. With two sets for each child, the balcony was full of their clothes. They were autumn and winter styles, with tops that resembled small blazers. The girls' uniforms came with small skirts, while the boys' came with trousers. This meant he would have to put leggings on the second and third children tomorrow.

As soon as Zhang Yuxi arrived, she forgot about eating and immediately started asking the little ones about their day at school.

The third child seemed a bit reluctant but eventually said, "I made a promise with Mr. Li that I'll go to school tomorrow!"

Zhang Yuxi cupped the third child's little face. "You're such a good boy for keeping your promises! Muah!"

The third child squinted, hugging Zhang Yuxi. "Mommy, will you take me to school tomorrow?"

"Of course!"

"Mommy's the best!"

Lin Feng came back in from hanging the clothes. "Honey, time for dinner."

Zhang Yuxi went to the kitchen to get herself some food.

"The teacher said we need to write the children's names in the new books they gave out today," Lin Feng commented. "Find your backpacks and take out your books. Daddy will write your names for you."

Having attended early education classes, the children could recognize many words, including their own names. They had each received four thin picture storybooks. Lin Feng quickly browsed through them and saw each one only contained two stories. The children couldn't write the character 'Class' in 'Little Class One,' so they had only written 'Little One.' Lin Feng would write their full names; his handwriting was strong and beautiful.

"Alright, pack the books back into your backpacks and put them on the shelf. That way, we won't have to scramble to find them tomorrow morning."

The children were very good at following instructions and did as they were told. After they had packed their little backpacks, they played for a while before going to bed.

Lin Feng felt emotional. "They're in kindergarten now. Time feels like it's flying by so fast!"

"I know!" Zhang Yuxi agreed.

That evening, as Lin Feng was getting ready for bed, the system's voice sounded in his mind.

DING!

[For the host's fulfillment of his fatherly duty by "taking his children to kindergarten," a reward of four bottles of Child Nutrient Solution has been issued!]

[The nutrient solution has been added to the children's dinners.]

...

「The next day.」

The first and fourth children were bouncing with joy, full of anticipation for school life. The third child ate slowly, a troubled expression on his face. The second child was doing slightly better; although a bit reluctant, she didn't say anything.

"Third Child, you can tell Dad and Mom whatever is on your mind," Lin Feng said gently.

Zhang Yuxi nodded in agreement. "That's right."

The third child put down his chopsticks and said sluggishly, "Going to school is so tiring. There's so much to do."

The couple was speechless. There wasn't much they could do about that. They couldn't let him skip school just because he was lazy. Seeing the look on his parents' faces, the third child knew what they were thinking and silently went back to eating.

This time, when they were dropped off at school, the second child's eyes reddened, but she didn't cry.

Mr. Li squatted down, her smile warm and gentle. "You're doing great, sweetie. I've been waiting for you!"

The second child managed a small smile.

This little girl is so beautiful, Mr. Li thought. When she grows up, she'll definitely be a stunning beauty, just like her mother.

Lin Feng glanced at the third child and decided it was best to have a word with the homeroom teacher, Mr. Li.

Mr. Li was very understanding. "Every child has a different personality. At home, they're their parents' little treasures, so it's perfectly normal for them to have trouble adjusting to school. We teachers will make adjustments based on each child's needs."

Lin Feng nodded. "Thank you for all your hard work, teacher!"

"It's no trouble. It's our job."

When he picked the children up that afternoon, the second and third children were in a much better mood than the day before. By the time he brought them home in the evening, both of them had smiles on their faces.

By the third day, they were no longer resistant to school. The second child even started to hurry Lin Feng along.

"Dad, hurry up! Mr. Li is waiting for me!"

"I'll be ready in a second!"

Before they knew it, Teacher's Day had arrived. The teachers had explicitly stated in the WeChat parent group that they would not accept any gifts. They felt very fortunate just to be able to teach such a group of lovely children.

An active parent in the group typed, "Teacher, in that case, how about we have the children prepare some handmade crafts? Their first Teacher's Day is very meaningful for them."

"That's a good idea. They could make some greeting cards or something similar."

"That way, it's not a gift, but a token of the children's appreciation."

Mr. Li replied with a smile, "For that, you'll have to see what the children themselves want to do."

The other parents all agreed this was a great idea. Since Teacher's Day was on a Monday, they had two days to prepare. Lin Feng clapped his hands, calling the playing children over.

"Kids, next Monday is a holiday for your teachers, Teacher's Day! What should we give them as gifts?"

The fourth child immediately said, "Let's give them food!"

The second child quickly added, "Cosmetics!"

The third child suggested, "Fruits and flowers."

The first child said, "Clothes."

Lin Feng nodded seriously, praising their ideas. Then, changing his tone, he said, "But anything we buy lacks a personal touch, don't you think? Why don't we make something ourselves? How about making gifts for the teachers with our own hands?"

The children clapped. "Yeah!"

"So, what should we make?" Lin Feng asked.

This question stumped them. It had to be something they could make themselves that the teachers would also like.

Finally, Lin Feng suggested, "How about we make a bouquet of flowers for each of the teachers?"

"The teachers are all ladies; they'll definitely love getting flowers," he reasoned.

In Little Class One, including the cleaning lady, there were six staff members the children considered teachers. The kids had no objections and began working with Lin Feng and Zhang Yuxi to make the bouquets. The children took the lead while their parents assisted.

They were following an online video to make silk-net flowers, a craft Lin Feng remembered being popular a few years back. When they were searching for ideas online, the children had taken a liking to this particular design.

After working hard for almost a whole day, the children finally completed six bouquets, each containing three flowers. They were thrilled with the results.

Lin Feng checked the time. "How about we also make a bouquet for Mommy? Mommy is a teacher too, you know!"

After a brief discussion, they decided to present it to her on the morning of Teacher's Day as a surprise.
