Unit 8: When children start school,
                      parents keep each other company





                          Scene 1: Holding hands and walking together
                                      as a couple

              Time flies, and Xiao Long is about to start elementary school. Jiao Niang
             and Jun Rong have also begun making preparations for Xiao Long's enrollment.
            In addition to getting school supplies and helping Xiao Long adjust to school life,
            checking homework and signing communication books are new challenges that
            the couple are now facing. They have already had initial discussions and divided
             up the tasks. For instance, even though Jiao Niang has studied Chinese, there
             may still be uncertainties regarding of the accuracy of Xiao Long's homework.
               So they decided that Jun Rong will be responsible for checking Xiao
                 Long’s assignments.










                            Scene 2: Challenges in parent-teacher
                                    communications

                After sticking to their assigned roles for some time, the couple finds
              that when Jun Rong is busy with work, checking Xiao Long's homework
             every day is a burden for him. Jun Rong also sees that Jiao Niang lacks
            confidence and is hesitant to check Xiao Long's homework. He suggests that
           Jiao Niang look over the homework first, then Jun Rong can double-check it when
           he returns home so they're helping each other out and both sharing their joint
           concern for their child's learning.
           One day, Xiao Long brings home a notice about a parent-teacher meeting, but Jun
           Rong has to travel out of town on that day. Jiao Niang volunteers to attend the
           meeting alone. At the meeting, although Xiao Long's teacher is friendly, Jiao
            Niang struggles to fully understand due to the pace of the speech.Fortunately,
             in one-on-one conversations, she manages to grasp Xiao Long's school
               situation. When she gets home, Jun Rong learns that Jiao Niang didn't
                fully understand what the teacher had said and comforts her,
                   saying that it's alright. He takes the initiative to call the
                       teacher to get the full information.
