My dance teacher
Author | Li Rujian
Granddaughter Hanyi is five years old this year, when she was two or three years old, she especially liked to watch dance performances and programs, whenever she heard and saw exciting music, her small body would naturally twist... Her confidant mother saw that her daughter liked it, so she enrolled her in a dance interest class, and her granddaughter jumped and jumped happily...
I also had musical dreams. After graduating from junior high school, I went to Weifang to study, and my table mate was a versatile student from the city, not only playing the flute well, but also having a good erhu, which I was very envious of. Secretly holding back a lot of energy, a person quietly went to the department store for six cents and seven cents, bought a flute, and secretly practiced when there was no one in the classroom on Saturday and Sunday. One day, in the midst of self-indulgence, a classroom teacher pushed open the door and said, "Something blew!" ", slammed the door and left. My face turned red, I felt groundless, and my head went down deeply... Since then, I have never blown or practiced, and the dream of a musician has been snuffed out in the blue...
Today's children are so happy, as long as the children like, parents will do their best to give satisfaction. I vividly remember the first time my granddaughter came back from an interest class.
"Grandpa, I'm back!"
My granddaughter ran toward me with open arms, and I squatted down, stood up with her in my arms, and gently patted her on the back, and she also patted me on the back. This is the agreement between our grandfathers and grandfathers, and the necessary procedure for meeting.
I asked her, "Did you have a good day?" ”
"Happy!"
"What did you learn?"
"The teacher's dance is very beautiful, and she also teaches us to press our legs and split our forks."
He put on a show as he spoke.
I asked again, "Can you split your legs?" ”
As she did it, she said, "The teacher said that the practice would split." ”
"You study hard, go home and teach your grandparents, be our teacher, okay?"
"Good!" The granddaughter happily agreed.
A few days later, when the granddaughter returned from study, she first spread the cushions in the living room and shouted loudly: "Grandparents are standing, I want to teach you a lesson." ”
We quickly stood up, smiled and shouted, "Hello teacher!" ”
"Don't laugh!"
"The teacher is so powerful!"
"Don't talk!"
The granddaughter has a serious look, so cute.
"Before you learn, do a warm-up exercise, press the legs first, one foot in front, one foot in the back, press the legs!"
The granddaughter said and did it for us to see.
My wife and I did it according to my granddaughter's request, "1234, 2234..." Seriously, and my granddaughter was very satisfied.
"Next do sit-ups, I'll do it first, you two watch, study hard, you know?"
"Know, teacher."
We replied earnestly, and my granddaughter smiled happily.
My granddaughter lay on her back on the cushion, her hands behind her head, and asked me to press her legs and shout, "Get up! "It really got up.
My granddaughter said to me, "Grandpa does." ”
I lay on the cushion, my hands behind my head, my legs bent in front of me, and then my legs swung down, and I shouted, "Get up! "That must have risen.
The granddaughter blinked her eyes, looked at it for a moment, and said, "No, don't count!" Your legs can't move, redo, redo, I'm going to hold your legs. ”
I had to lie down again, my granddaughter sat on my lap, I pulled my hands out of the back of my head, propped up, and got up again.
The granddaughter shouted to her wife: "Grandpa plays Laipi, Grandpa plays Laipi." ”
I was busy talking to my granddaughter and said, "You teach Grandma to do it." ”
The granddaughter pressed on the wife's leg, but the wife could not get up no matter what, the wife did not play with the skin, the granddaughter had no interest, and she wanted to teach the grandfather in a while...
The days of companionship are always happy. Unconsciously, half a year passed, and one day, my granddaughter said to me: "The teacher taught us a dance again, and I will show it to you." ”
She made a "please" gesture, singing and dancing at the same time:
"A flower, a tree,
A house, a road,
A mountain, a river,
A boat, a me,
A heart, a fire,
A papaya, a you,
Rowing a boat, crossing the river,
You're watching me by the water..."
I was stunned, the granddaughter's childlike singing, not very standard dance, is so moving, all said "children are their own good", how to see the more cute it is! I applauded her...
Learning, only learning, can make people progress!
In the days that followed, the teacher often gave us lessons, of course, I received the most criticism, but my heart was extremely happy...
In the past, we used to say that parents are the first teachers of children, but now we see, children are not parents' teachers!
As I get older, I feel more and more that I should learn from the children, learn from the children's pure state, pure heart, talk without hiding, go straight.
Learn that the child does not remember revenge, no matter if you hit him and scold him, turn your face and it will be fine, they always express their likes and dislikes and love and hatred directly - they don't like you, they will shout out immediately; like you, and let you know immediately. They don't hold grudges for long or deliberately amplify your flaws. They will quickly and unhindered let go of their unpleasant emotions and love the people around them again. If the child decides to forgive you, it must be untangled and sincere. One minute he's still yelling "bad grandpa" at you, and the next minute he's holding your leg sweetly and shouting," "You're the best grandpa in the world."
We must learn that children treat others sincerely, ask questions if they do not understand, and always have a bright and sunny heart; learn that children can change their mistakes, simple and kind, and work seriously and single-mindedly. Every adult should be like a child, see and forget the pain quickly, laugh at life, laugh at friends, laugh at life, so that happiness will be available anytime and anywhere, and people will become happier and happier.
