For two consecutive days, Juanjuan noticed that her mother was very busy.
Usually, her mother was still sleeping when she went to school, and her mother hadn't come home when she got out of school.
When her mother came back, she had already fallen asleep.
As the sun set, the children inside the house beamed with joy, for tomorrow was their day off, and they could rest at home for the rest of the day.
"Tomorrow is your day off, but don't neglect your studies, understand?"
The teacher was giving instructions from above.
"knew!"
The group of children sitting below were exceptionally cooperative at this moment, speaking loudly and clearly.
The teacher shook his head: "I've never seen you all so cooperative and attentive when you're studying normally."
But the teacher also knew that all the children who had just come to the private school were like this; they couldn't sit still and wanted to go out and play.
In a few years, I will be able to calm down and focus on my studies.
Juanjuan packed up her notebooks, slung her little schoolbag over her shoulder, and walked out of the private school with her brothers.
As soon as Juanjuan reached the door, she saw someone who looked extremely familiar.
"Mother!!!"
The little guy took off running towards his mother.
Jiang Dai bent down and caught the little guy who was running happily towards her.
"Mother, aren't you busy today?"
Juanjuan nestled in Jiang Dai's arms, asking softly.
"Yes, I'm done with work for now, so Mommy is here to pick you up today."
As Jiang Dai answered her little girl's question, she beckoned her three sons over and tried to take their handbags.
"Mom, I can carry it myself."
Bai Yunqi immediately rejected Jiang Dai.
Bai Yunxing and Bai Yun'an, being twins, also declined their mother's offer almost simultaneously.
Juanjuan looked at her brothers, as if she had thought of something, and gestured to her mother to put her down.
“Mother, Juanjuan is carrying it herself too.”
Jiang Dai looked at the youngest child and did not refuse, handing over the handbag in her hand.
I understand. Kids this age have self-esteem too. It's okay, the bag wasn't very heavy this time.
When Jiang Dai and her four children returned home, Bai Tian had already brought out the meal and set out the chopsticks.
"Come and eat."
The children, having spent the day at school, ate their meals with great gusto.
Even though the food my parents cook... doesn't taste very good.
But with vegetables and meat, it's already much better than what ordinary families eat.
Bai Yunqi, thinking about his day off tomorrow, asked the person in charge of the family, "Mother, I want to go out and play tomorrow, is that okay?"
"Mom, I want to go out and play too!"
Bai Yun'an also spoke up, looking at his mother expectantly with innocent eyes.
Only Juanjuan knows.
The eldest brother wanted to take advantage of his vacation to go out and look for bargains, hoping to find some magical treasures.
Third Brother wants to go out... and beat someone up?
I could see that my mother was hesitating.
Juanjuan reached out and tugged at her mother's clothes: "Mother, my brothers are all so big now, can't they go out and play?"
"In the village, Brother Fuman is already married at thirteen, while my brother is eight and still can't go out to play..."
Jiang Dai: ...
She knew about Fu Man, which was truly baffling.
[This is truly the evil of ancient times! A thirteen-year-old boy could get married! It's unbelievable!]
[But it's all about environment shaping people; it's not uncommon in modern times either, like Jiang Dai! Nothing surprising!]
Jiang Dai looked at the children who were staring at her expectantly.
"Okay, but you have to come back before dinner and can't wander off. Stay in the neighborhood! Bai Tian! Keep an eye on things."
Bai Tian, who had just been internally complaining about how a thirteen-year-old could get married, immediately nodded: "Mission accomplished!"
Juanjuan looked at her father: ...Can he really keep her brothers in check?
Bai Yunqi: [Dad, keep an eye on things. It's alright now.]
