Hello Everyone, My Name Is Lu Lu, 187 Years Old (2)
“Kids, first put down your brushes and look over here.” The teacher clapped her hands and got everyone’s attention.
Lu Lu looked at all the new strangers and was both excited and nervous.
She was about to make new friends, but she didn’t know if they liked her or not.
What are they drawing? It looked very fun.
Lu Lu looked at the students under the podium with big eyes like black grapes, full of curiosity.
The teacher bent down and patted her little shoulder, “Lu Lu, would you like to introduce yourself to everyone?”
Before coming to earth, heavenly Aunt Joey taught her how to introduce herself, so Lu nodded.
She stood in the middle of the podium, her legs stood straight together, and her little hands well-behaved.
Lu Lu looked at the class and then said firmly: “Hello everyone. My name is Lu Lu. I’m 187 years old this year, my family lives in Shanquan Lake. I am a small koi in the lake. Uncle Turtle told me that in the human world, koi fishes means good luck, so I hope I give you guys good luck!”
“Huh?” The teacher did not expect something like this.
She was obviously surprised, but for some reason, she didn’t think that Lu Lu was lying.
Children have a very strong imagination, so maybe this is just something her parents told her to do to make friends.
She played along and asked: “Wow, that’s amazing! Lu Lu is a little koi fish. Then what color is the koi fish?”
“My body is orange, and there is a golden outline that looks very shiny.”
Hearing the description, all the kids were now very curious about Lu Lu.
Someone asked: “Then are your mom and dad also big koi fishes?”
“Yes, my mom and dad are koi fishes, but I’ve never seen them. I grew up with Uncle Turtle and Uncle Crab.”
“My brother is a big dragon. He is really cool and protects everyone in the lake.”
“My Uncle Turtle has practiced asceticism for over 6000 years. He needs to train for another 4000 years before he can go to the dragon palace to apply to be a minister. Uncle crab is a big crab. He opened a shop in the lake and it has some cool stuff I’ve never seen before.”
Lu Lu truthfully described her life in the lake. The children listened attentively like Lu Lu was telling them a fairy tale.
The teacher was confused about what Lu Lu’s parents taught her, but she thought that Lu Lu was going to be a fun addition to the classroom.
Qiao Yi, who was standing outside the classroom, was full of confusion.
She wants to know what’s in Lu Lu’s little head.
What did Song Heran say to Lu Lu? This self-introduction is too special.
“Wow, Lu Lu, you seem so cool, can I come to your house next time?”
“Yes, you can come to my house to watch Teletubbies. It is just my TV is stupid and only recognizes my brother’s voice.”
Every time her brother spoke to the TV, the TV undestood, but when Lu Lu talked, the TV couldn’t pick up what she’s saying
Lu Lu suspected that the TV deliberately bullied children.
But she had no proof.
The teacher saw that Lu Lu was finished.”Lu Lu, what do else do you want to let the kids know?”
Lu Lu thought about it a little, she remembered her mission to gather the liking of people.
If you want to become a dragon, you must fill the bar up.
“I hope everyone can like Lu Lu. Lu Lu will share all my food and toys with everyone.”
“Good!”
At the end of Lu Lu’s self-introduction, the teacher took her to a window seat. “This is your seat form now onwards Lu Lu. You’ll have to remember it.”
“Thank you, teacher. Teacher is very pretty. I like you.”
The teacher smiled brightly. She felt happy after the first time a student voluntarily complimented her.
After she settled Lu Lu to her seat, she brought Lu Lu her books, watercolors, and other supplies.
There are no complicated emotions and mind games between kids. If they wanted to play with someone, they’ll play with them.
After Lu lu’s introduction, everyone became very interested in Lu Lu and her story. They want to know more about her being a little koi.
Lu Lu was very happy talking with her new friends. She also received lots of pretty candies.
My brother said that everything should be reciprocated.
She remembered that she needed to bring the bear-shaped cookies her nanny baked tomorrow for everyone to try.
Lu Lu just arrived at the new kindergarten for half a day and became the most popular girl in the school. Lots of kids wanted to play with her.
Lu Lu saw that there was a child in the corner of the class who had been looking at her but never left her seat.
What’s wrong with this her?
Why is no one playing with her?
Lu Lu curiously walked towards the child but was immediately stopped by the other kids,
“Lu Lu, don’t play with Qi Qi, she is a monster!”
“Why is she a monster?” Lu Lu asked.
“She is a monster with only one hand!”
Lu Lu approached and looked at a classmate named Qi Qi and looked down.
Qi Qi’s left sleeve was empty.
“Lu Lu, ignore her, lets go play over there!”
Lu Lu looked at Qi Qi, who had only one hand. She wasn’t crying, but Lu Lu could feel that she was upset.
Qi Qi was just missing a hand, she’s not a monster.
How can these children talk nonsense?
Lu Lu pushed away from the other child. “Qi Qi is not a monster. You guys can’t say nonsense!”
“Then how come she only has one hand?”
Lu Lu recalled her turtle Uncle told her about Nuwa* creating humans. “Its because Auntie Nuwa ran out of materials to create, which is why some kids like Qi Qi only has one hand.”
“This is Nuwa auntie’s fault, it has nothing to do with QI Qi.”
Other children heard the words suddenly realized. “Then she is really not a monster?”
“Of course not, Qi Qi is the same as us.”
“So did Nuwa auntie make people by molding clay together?”
Lu Lu nodded, “I’m pretty sure.”
“Then let’s get some clay! We can make a separate arm for Qi Qi, so then she will have two hands!”
“No, Nuwa auntie is a fairy, she can turn the clay into body parts. We cannot do magic like that.”
“That’s too bad.”
“It doesn’t matter. If we help Qi Qi, she can play even with only one in arm.”
Note: Nuwa is a goddess from Chinese mythology that’s recognized for creating humanity.
