A TV drama from the 90s was once the origin of Yu Yin's nightmares, and its ending theme song deeply influenced her.
Yu Yin's childhood was filled with the sounds of her parents argui...
On February 25th, Yu Yin and Lu Shurui first took Kuai Kuai and Man Man to the daycare.
The nursery is located inside Shanghai University, in a separate two-story building with a yard.
Yu Yin carried small backpacks for the two children, containing water bottles, handkerchiefs, and some dried fruit.
The registration had already been completed, and the teacher checked the information and took the child inside.
Kuai Kuai was very excited. He saw the slide, seesaw and other fun equipment in the yard and was eager to try them out, but the teacher stopped him.
"Take your time, don't rush. Tell your teacher if you need anything."
Yu Yin was afraid that if she gradually got used to the slow pace, she wouldn't be used to life in the nursery.
"I know." At least she replied with two words, and Yu Yin was already very gratified.
When I picked up my child in the evening, I specifically asked the teacher how the children were doing. "Lu Xiangyang is very lively, but he doesn't cause trouble and is easy to take care of. Lu Xiangnuan has strong self-care ability, has her own rhythm, and is adapting very well." The teacher didn't expect these two children to perform so well. The children who came for the first time were so loud that they wanted to lift the roof off, and their crying was deafening.
Reassured by her teacher's words, Yu Yin took the two little ones home.
The next day, Yu Yin took the two younger children to school, and Lu Shurui took Ping An to register for the exam.
The primary school is located between Yu Yin's home and Shanghai University, a seven or eight-minute walk away. Pingping and An'an can go to and from school on their own in the future.
At this age, children go to and from school on their own, without being picked up or dropped off by their parents.
Moreover, despite his young age, Ping An is quite skilled in martial arts, and most people can't get close to him. Chu Jianguo, the young master of the capital, is not just a name; he is indeed very capable. For several years, he trained several children.
When the three of them came back at noon, their faces beamed with smiles, a testament to their good grades.
"Although the textbooks are different, it didn't affect the children's performance. Pingping got both perfect scores, An'an only got one wrong in math, but got all the Chinese questions right." Lu Shurui's pride was overflowing, and she felt extremely honored.
"Classes officially start tomorrow, and everyone will be in the same class." This was Yu Yin's suggestion. It would save trouble when holding class meetings in the future, since there are so many children, there's no other way.
"Alright, wash your hands and eat. We have to report for duty this afternoon." Yu Yin had already set the table. Grandpa and Grandma watched them interact with smiles, and they were happy too. It was so good that they could still enjoy a peaceful life surrounded by their children and grandchildren in their old age. What a blessing!
After finishing their meal and tidying up, Sister Ma started work on the first day. Yu Yin and Lu Shurui had been extremely busy these past few days, as all four children and the two of them needed to go to school, and there were many things to prepare.
Fortunately, the grandparents are there and can take care of the house. They don't have to do anything while taking care of four children. Having an elder in the family is like having a treasure, let alone having two treasures!
Lu Shurui rode his bicycle with Yu Yin sitting on the back, rushing to the university for a report.
They were 30 and 28 years old, respectively, making them relatively old students.
After finding the registration area, we registered Yu Yin first. After that, we were assigned dorm rooms, and then we went to register Lu Shurui.
The two of them didn't stay in the dormitory; they just left their beds there for a short rest at noon. They weren't in a hurry to pack their luggage and planned to come back tomorrow, as school officially started the day after tomorrow.
Instead of rushing home, the two wandered around the old campus, soaking in its cultural atmosphere.
There are many people on campus who share the same thoughts, and excited students can be seen everywhere.
This year's college students are special. There are sixteen or seventeen-year-old recent graduates, young and vibrant; there are young people in their early twenties who have experienced some things, and although they have smiles on their faces, they are relatively reserved; and there are also people like Lu Shurui, who are from the "Old Three Classes" (referring to students who graduated in the late 1960s, 1966, and 1967), in their thirties, with the marks of time on their faces, but with firm eyes.
Occasionally, there are also pregnant women who don't want to give up this rare opportunity, overcoming all difficulties to stand on this land of Shanghai University.
Shanghai University, with its century-long history, has its own story, and those who come to Shanghai University also have their own stories. And isn't life just made up of one story after another?
After walking around the school and reflecting on the surroundings, the two learned the locations of the cafeteria, dormitories, library, teaching buildings, laboratories, and so on. It was getting late, so they left the school and went to the grocery store to buy some groceries.
In the evening, Lu Shurui took Ping An and An to pick up Kuai Kuai and Man Man, while Yu Yin and Grandma Lu cooked at home.
The two elderly people have their own rhythm of life, and because of them, they have to readjust.
However, in the past two days, Yu Yin could feel the joy in her grandparents' hearts. They really liked the children and enjoyed talking to them.
Perhaps this is just the way things are in our country; no matter how insightful a person is, once they reach a certain age, they still crave a house full of children and grandchildren and enjoy that lively atmosphere.
Tap tap... A series of footsteps came from outside the courtyard. The children had returned, and the courtyard immediately became lively.
Aside from the occasional single-word reply, the other three chattered incessantly, especially An'an, who described her school and exams to her younger siblings with great enthusiasm.
At the dinner table, the eight family members, including adults and children, ate with great relish.
"Seeing the children eating so heartily, your grandfather and I have both increased our appetites, and we've unknowingly eaten quite a lot." Grandma Lu finished a whole bowl of rice and thought about their past with many emotions.
"That's great! Eat well, exercise a bit, and you'll be in great shape."
"You're in great health!"
"Great!"
The child also enjoys being with his great-grandparents and even practices calligraphy with his great-grandfather.
Pleasant laughter echoed continuously in the small courtyard, and passersby outside couldn't help but smile as well.
The next day, Yu Yin took Ping An and An An to school. On the first day, she wanted to take both children there herself.
