Xia Liang always remembered a phrase from her childhood: Good children are loved.
These words from her mother, back when her parents were still affectionate and life was happy, echoed in her mind, "Is our little puppy obedient? Only good children are loved, and Mommy likes good children too."
"Little puppy" was her nickname at that time because she liked to bite people when she was angry, so whenever she opened her mouth, her parents would laugh and say, "The little puppy is biting again."
Xia Liang felt that she wasn't a little dog, and she could be very well-behaved. From then on, she rarely bit anyone when she was angry.
She became the good child in the eyes of her parents and their friends.
She was sweet and affectionate at home, earning her parents' doting love with her sweet smiles; in social settings, she was sensible and polite, eliciting praise from relatives and elders; at school, she was obedient and diligent, serving as a role model for her classmates.
