Obviously, Yun Xi's inner prayers and verbal hints were not understood by the two children. After waking up from their nap, the two of them came to play with her again.

She was not too surprised. In her original world, she had always been very popular among children. When she took her nephew to play in the park, there would always be a group of children following her.

Because she lets the children explore the world, they can watch ants if they want to, watch snails if they want to, dig the soil if they want to, step on water if they want to, and play however they want as long as safety is guaranteed. It is in this process that children constantly establish connections with the world.

There is no child who doesn't like this way of playing.

Even after coming to the new world, she subconsciously put her children on an equal footing and talked to them without restraint or lecturing, focusing on companionship, inspiration and respect.

In her original world, there was a very famous poem written by Gibran, "Your Children Are Not Really Your Children", which Yun Xi had always liked. She would recite it every year on "International Day Against Child Abuse".

After all, no matter how open-minded a parent is, there will always be times when they are swept up in the secular world.

"Your child is not really your child.

They are the children born of life's desire for itself.

They came into this world through you,

But not because of you,

They are with you, but they do not belong to you.

You can give them your love,

It's not what you think.

Because they have their own thoughts.

What you can protect is their bodies.

But not their souls,

For their souls belong to tomorrow,

A tomorrow that you can never reach, even in your dreams.

You can try your best to be like them,

But don't let them become like you,

For life goes not backwards, nor does it linger in the past.

You are the bow, and your children are the arrows that shoot out from you.

The archer looks at the target on the road to the future,

He pulled you away with all his strength.

Make his arrows fly fast and far.

With a happy mood,

Bend in the archer's hand,

For he loves the arrow as it flies,

Also love the incredibly stable bow. "

Of course, adhering to this concept has a basic premise, which is that your child must be a law-abiding child. This is the bottom line of civilization and must never be broken.

Even if we need to let children fly on their own, parents still need to guide them to learn to distinguish right from wrong, understand good and evil, and have the most basic principles and bottom lines.

Letting go does not mean that you will watch him fall into the abyss and still ignore him.

That's not called "letting go", that's called irresponsibility.

In the afternoon, Yun Xi and the two children worked together to complete the making of the kite.

The shape and color of the kite were decided by the two of them. Xie An wanted to make a swallow pattern, and Mu Jinyan wanted to make a butterfly pattern. He saw butterflies last time he went to the farm, and he couldn't forget them. The two of them couldn't agree, and Yun Xi suggested that they roll the dice. Whoever got the higher number would win.

The dice here are made of copper and have 18 sides, marked with numbers from to . The other two sides have the word "pride" written on one side and "wife fear" or "wine come" written on the other side. The specific words written on them depend on the purpose of the dice. For example, if you want to play drinking games, you would write "wine come". Pride represents the maximum number of points, and "wine come" represents the minimum number of points.

Yun Xi had seen a way of playing dice in a miscellaneous book before. It was just like the Monopoly board game of later generations. You took a certain number of steps based on the number you threw. It was quite interesting.
