Chapter 227: Chapter 227: Proof Wang Tongtong hesitated for a while before looking up at Kang Li and asking, "Pretty auntie, are you Luo Mingwei’s mother or stepmother?" On the side, the principal and several teachers frowned simultaneously. However, Kang Li showed no displeasure, her smile tender, "As elders, there’s no difference between a mother and a stepmother as long as they genuinely love their children. So, they are all good mothers, don’t you think?" Wang Tongtong tilted her head to think, then replied, "Pretty auntie is right!" Kang Li, "Though the three kids at auntie’s home are not born of me, I love them just as your mothers love you. I don’t want to see them bullied by others, hope that they grow up safe and sound, and learn more skills from their teachers to contribute to our country in the future." She said this to both Wang Tongtong and Li Tingting, her smile not diminishing in her eyes as she continued, "So, I ask you all not to say unkind words to auntie’s children anymore. If you have any issues, you should talk it out without arguing or fighting. What do you think?" Many parents arrived one after another in the office, but not one interrupted. Like the principal and the teachers, they stood silently, listening to Kang Li talk to Li Tingting and Wang Tongtong. The woman was so beautiful, ethereal and refined, her smile radiant and friendly, her gaze incredibly gentle. Her figure was graceful, like a lotus flower emerging from the water, making one irresistibly drawn to her, unable to harbor any dislike. Li Tingting, "I didn’t want to fight with Luo Mingwei. I just thought she was bragging, but she wouldn’t admit it, and then we started arguing." Kang Li, "How about this, let my Ming Wei prove to you with facts that she was not bragging at all. Do you agree to that?" Li Tingting, "...Okay, if Luo Mingwei wasn’t bragging, then... then I’ll apologize to her!" Wang Tongtong, "Me too!" Kang Li rubbed both girls’ heads. "Good, then that’s settled." Her eyes sparkled with a clear smile as she looked at Xiao Ming Rui and his siblings, adding, "You all heard that, right?" Xiao Ming Rui and his siblings nodded. "Now, let Ming Wei tell you a story that mom once told you. Hanhan, do some crafts, um, fold that paper frog mom taught you, and as for Ruirui... you practice writing neatly just as mom taught you during the holidays. Write a few characters in front of the children, teachers, and your grandparents, aunts, and uncles. Any problems with that?" The three kids shook their heads together. Kang Li, her eyes filled with satisfaction, borrowed a piece of cardboard, a small notebook, and a pencil from a nearby teacher. To prevent Milk Bun Ming Han from hurting his little hands while cutting the paper, Kang Li helped him cut the cardboard into a square. "Hello teachers, grandpas and grandmas, uncles and aunts, classmates, I am now going to tell you a story about a smart and hardworking little rooster." Xiao Ming Wei faced the principal, the teachers in the office, and the parents of the children, bowed, and then, in her sweet childlike voice, mimicking the tone and expressions her mother used while storytelling, vividly began the story: "In the morning, Grandfather Sun rose, and the little rooster stood by the river and crowed, awakening the little white rabbit, the little flower cat, making the flowers open their eyes and the grass stand up straight..."
