But Liu Dekai couldn't tell Mo Youyou that saying so would bring up Chaoxiong again, which would inevitably lead to an argument, and there would be no result or change after the argument, so he didn't want to keep repeating the meaningless cycle.

"What's wrong? Tell me," Liu Dekai asked, seemingly calm, but in reality, he was already thinking about how to avoid the potential conflict that was about to unfold.

“When I took Xiao Rui out, I found that none of the other children would play with him. I asked the military wives if they had taught him to play with Xiao Rui, and they readily admitted it, but they blamed Xiao Rui for it, leaving me speechless.”

Mo Youyou repeated the previous conversation, including the military wives recounting Liu Shengrui's glorious achievements. Before she could mention that everyone had advised her not to let Zhang Cuihua take care of the child anymore, Zhang Cuihua jumped out first.

"Pah! A bunch of gossipy women!"

Zhang Cuihua stood with her hands on her hips, looking as if she couldn't wait to go out and fight those military wives.

"These women are all mothers themselves, yet they slander a two-year-old child behind her back. How can they be so shameless? Do they have any conscience? How can they say such things? Aren't they afraid of having a guilty conscience and being haunted by ghosts in the middle of the night?"

"What kind of skill is it to gossip behind someone's back? If you're so capable, say it to my face, and I'll rip their tongues out so they won't dare to say anything bad about Xiao Rui!"

"What's wrong with our Xiao Rui? She's so well-behaved, sensible, kind, and loves animals. It's a blessing for them that Xiao Rui is willing to play with their children. They're acting all high and mighty. It's ridiculous. What a bunch of idiots!"

Zhang Cuihua got more and more into her rant. While she was ranting, she also told Liu Shengrui not to be afraid, that his grandmother would support him and protect him.

Mo Youyou: "..."

She didn't want to respond at all, thinking to herself that her own judgment of Zhang Cuihua, as well as the advice of those military wives, were indeed correct.

Letting Zhang Cuihua take care of the child is ruining the child.

Mo Youyou ignored Zhang Cuihua and continued to look at Liu Dekai, expressing her thoughts.

“Honey, I think we should send Xiao Rui to kindergarten earlier,” Mo Youyou said.

She wasn't concerned about Zhang Cuihua's feelings; she just didn't want to argue with Zhang Cuihua anymore. Solving Xiao Rui's problem was more important right now.

"Honey, let's talk in the bedroom." Mo Youyou pulled Liu Dekai's arm and dragged him into the bedroom.

"Why do we have to talk in the bedroom? Is there anything I can't hear?" Zhang Cuihua complained, glaring at Mo Youyou's back. When she turned to coax her grandson not to cry, she had that same smiling face again.

"My little darling, my sweetheart, please stop crying, Grandma's heart aches for you..."

In the bedroom, Mo Youyou's expression changed as soon as she closed the door.

"Do you know how I felt when those military wives questioned me about how Xiao Rui bullied other children in the compound?"

"I, Mo Youyou, have never been so humiliated in my entire life!"

Liu Dekai: "..."

What could he say?

He did try to dissuade Mo Youyou back then, but she insisted on having the child. Now that she's suffering from all of this, what was she doing back then?

What worries Liu Dekai even more is that Mo Youyou wants to send the child to kindergarten again.

What if he causes trouble again at kindergarten?

Liu Dekai pondered that he would probably have to find more excuses to spend time in the army lately, using his busy career as an excuse to avoid these tedious but unsolvable family problems.

"Alright, I know you're upset," Liu Dekai said, offering useless words of comfort.

Do you know what else they said?

“Those military wives all reminded me that I can’t let your mother take care of the child anymore, saying that your mother’s twisted logic will lead Xiao Rui astray. You see, it’s not just me who thinks this way, now even other people think this way. What can I do? What can I do?”

"So, the only thing we can do is find a way to get Xiao Rui into kindergarten first. We absolutely cannot let your mother take care of Xiao Rui anymore," Mo Youyou said, her attitude very firm.

Liu Dekai began to have a headache; it seemed that this time it would be difficult to persuade Mo Youyou to give up this idea.

Mo Youyou already had this idea, and now that the other military wives are adding fuel to the fire, she will definitely find a way to make it happen. But if Liu Shengrui really goes to kindergarten...

Liu Dekai couldn't bring himself to laugh.

"Youyou, are you sure?" Liu Dekai's tone was very tactful. He knew Mo Youyou too well. The more forceful he was at this time, the more he would provoke her. Only by being gentle would there be a slight chance of success.

"Even if we send Xiao Rui to kindergarten, the teachers might not be able to manage him, since there are quite a few children in a class."

"Furthermore, kindergarten teachers are only responsible for looking after these children and at most teaching them some basic common sense knowledge. They won't teach any child individually, so they might not be able to teach Xiao Rui well. Why don't we hire someone to teach Xiao Rui separately?"

Liu Dekai thought that even if Liu Shengrui was too annoying and drove away the tutor, he was still an adult. Liu Shengrui could only annoy him, not hurt him.

But in kindergartens, there are tons of kids, so it's hard to say.

Whether they teach well or not is a minor issue; if Liu Shengrui causes any serious trouble, it might really affect them.

"I don't believe it!" Mo Youyou said, her neck stiff.

Of course, the situation Liu Dekai described may indeed exist, but why did it happen to his own son?

Mo Youyou felt it was too much of a coincidence. Most children would change after being sent to kindergarten. Her son was just a little naughty and had only been led astray by Zhang Cuihua for the time being. As long as someone provided the right guidance, he would definitely change and get back on the right track.

And the teacher is the best choice, sending him to kindergarten is the right decision.

“Honey, let’s try sending Xiao Rui to the military kindergarten first. If other kids can stay in kindergarten well, our Xiao Rui can definitely do it too!” Mo Youyou said, she was determined.

As long as I don't stay with Zhang Cuihua, that's good.

During the day, when Mo Youyou and Liu Dekai were at work, they would leave Liu Shengrui at the kindergarten, where teachers would look after him, which put their minds at ease.

After work, they would pick Liu Shengrui up and take him home. Then they could spend time with their son and wouldn't worry about Zhang Cuihua having a bad influence on him.

In this way, things will definitely change.

“Since you’ve made your decision, I naturally agree,” Liu Dekai said, seeing that there was no way to change her mind, so he decided to go along with Mo Youyou’s wishes. He had already tried to persuade her, and if he couldn’t, there was nothing he could do. “However, what about Xiao Rui’s age?”

"This matter..." Mo Youyou pondered.
