Chapter 9 The First Parent is Like a Dream
Sister Xu, a salesperson on the second floor of the shopping mall selling clothes, is a little upset now.
I had a sullen face all day.
Even the team leader took a detour when passing by.
Xiao Li, who is also a salesperson, came over and asked Sister Xu: "What's wrong with you?"
Sister Xu has been upset for a long time, and when someone finally comes to ask her a question, she can't hold it in any longer.
"My mother-in-law loves to take advantage of small things. We're arguing again about sending our child to kindergarten. She found a cheap kindergarten somewhere and directly enrolled the child. I heard she's already paid the money!"
Sister Xu is 36 years old and she had several in vitro fertilization attempts before she got pregnant.
Baby is here.
Xu's mother-in-law is also a well-known figure, who loves to take advantage of others. She is either attending a class here or a lecture there.
Every time I could bring back rice, flour, oil and other things, and I could even get a free trip.
In the hearts of these young people, her mother-in-law is also a deity.
According to Sister Xu, their family has never bought eggs all year round. All of them were delivered by her mother-in-law who lined up in various places!
But other things are fine.
It is crucial for children to go to school. Although Sister Xu doesn’t have much money, she is willing to spend a high price to send her children to a good kindergarten.
What kind of kindergarten can you go to for 260 yuan a month?
But the old lady was not convinced, and her mother-in-law, who was so stingy, had already paid 260. This matter was already a done deal.
When Xiao Li heard this, he immediately said, "That won't do. It's crucial for children to go to school. We have to choose a good school. Even if we are poor, we can't let our children suffer."
"My cousin's family bought a house nearby early because we have an elite kindergarten here. They wanted to get in early on the lottery and heard that the couple is actively preparing for the parent interview."
When Sister Xu heard this, her eyes showed a hint of envy.
She had also heard of the aristocratic kindergarten, but her child simply couldn't attend.
I heard they said they still need to verify the capital. The assets cannot be less than 500,000.
She had already spent 500,000 yuan to have a child back then, and now she is just in ordinary conditions.
Sister Xu said, "I don't want to find such a good kindergarten, but I have to find a similar one, around 2,400 yuan a month."
She only earns 3,500 yuan a month, but she can spend so much money on kindergarten for her child, which shows how much her baby is loved.
When Xiao Li heard this figure, he was a little shocked: "Why is it so expensive just to send my child to kindergarten these days?"
Sister Xu said, "That's right. A child is a millionaire, and a debtor!"
The two of them ended up talking without any conclusion. Sister Xu decided that at worst she could give the 260 yuan as compensation to her mother-in-law. She had to send her child to a good kindergarten anyway.
I went home holding my breath, and when I got home I saw my mother-in-law and my daughter Mengmeng playing.
Yes, she gave birth to a little girl, who was very cute. She always wore all kinds of beautiful dresses and dressed up like a little doll.
Sister Xu softened her heart again, as she gave birth to her child later than others.
So my mother-in-law is older than other mothers-in-law.
It’s not easy to help take care of children nowadays.
Otherwise, if she doesn't go out to work, the family will not be able to function.
But I still care a lot about matters concerning my own children.
"Mom!" Sister Xu planned to have a good talk with her mother-in-law.
"Hey, do you know who recommended that 260-yuan-a-month kindergarten to you? It was Teacher Tang."
"Is it really her?" Sister Xu exclaimed.
Teacher Tang was the kindergarten she had wanted to attend, with a tuition fee of 2,400 yuan per month.
After consulting with her several times, I found that Ms. Tang's class has the highest teaching quality. However, she rarely teaches classes now.
So after adding each other on WeChat, we've been chatting casually.
Teacher Tang is quite famous, and he is also well-known for his love for children.
Ning Fubao was with her before. She didn't charge tuition. Her fellow parents were very touched.
Moreover, Teacher Tang is a gentle person. She speaks softly and slowly no matter who she talks to. The children like her too.
When Sister Xu heard that it was recommended by Teacher Tang, she asked, "Is it true? How can it be so cheap?" She actually believed it 50%.
My mother-in-law immediately said, "You don't know this, do you? A newly opened kindergarten, according to the market price, costs at least 3,000 yuan. How much do you earn in total? You're still young, save more money. There will be many expenses for raising children in the future. It doesn't matter where the kindergarten is, and I've heard that Teacher Tang is in this kindergarten."
My mother-in-law feels like she's made a killing. If Teacher Tang is really here, wouldn't that have the same effect as sending the child to a kindergarten that costs over 2,000 yuan?
Sister Xu was still worried: "I'll ask my supervisor for leave tomorrow and take my child to kindergarten to see the actual situation."
My mother-in-law agreed.
By the evening, Sister Xu still felt uneasy.
I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and kept checking the kindergarten fees and all kinds of things.
260 If it was really taught by Teacher Tang, that would be great.
We can save 2,000 yuan here at the kindergarten, and can provide our children with some additional nutritional supplements every month.
But how could there be a pie falling from the sky for nothing? Just as I was thinking about this, I looked up and it was almost 3 a.m.
It was already dawn, and Sister Xu quickly took the opportunity to take a nap.
The next day, he came to send his child to school with heavy dark circles under his eyes.
As soon as I reached the intersection, I saw a brightly lit school bus.
Many people from the surrounding communities came to pick up their children. They saw this high-end school bus with the words "Starry Sky Kindergarten" written on it.
Several parents were envious: "This school bus is really expensive."
"Of course not! I heard this school bus costs over 2 million. Only aristocratic schools can afford it!"
"Oh my god, are there students from an aristocratic school in our neighborhood?"
"No way, he can go to a prestigious school. Why would he live in our community? At least he should live in a villa nearby." Everyone chattered.
After a while, the school bus stopped steadily at the entrance of their community.
Today was the first time to pick up the child. Teacher Tang also came with the car. As soon as he opened the car door, he called Mengmeng's name.
Sister Xu was a little confused, and the two of them got on the school bus together.
The other parents were shocked. How much did this cost? They had never heard of the Mantianxing Kindergarten.
I immediately took out my phone and started searching, but there wasn't much information online.
After getting in the car, Sister Xu immediately spoke to Teacher Tang: "It's really you who taught me. That's great. I have another question. Is the tuition 260 yuan a month? I wonder if my mother-in-law is old and heard it wrong and missed a zero in 2600."
She couldn't believe that a kindergarten that could afford such an expensive school bus could charge such a low fee. Could it be that her mother-in-law had made a mistake?
Teacher Tang said, "It's 260. Don't worry about leaving your child to me. I have excellent teaching staff!"
Then he talked about his colleague's qualifications.
Sister Xu was full of praise, but seeing is believing.
Finally, Sister Xu arrived at the kindergarten, which covers an area of 10,000 square meters and occupies an entire building.
There are also various amusement facilities. Mengmeng didn’t cry at all when she went to kindergarten for the first time. Her eyes were fixed on various carousels and other things.
Sister Xu asked, "Would you like to come here to study?"
Seeing my precious daughter nodded heavily.
Then the little hand took the initiative to hold Teacher Xu's hand.
Sister Xu suddenly remembered and called the teacher: "I haven't bought her food this morning. I'll buy her some bread and milk later."
Teacher Tang said, "No need, we have a cafeteria here, eat here!"
The child was then placed in the cafeteria and an education specialist was asked to look after him while Teacher Tang had to continue picking up other children.
Today is the first day of school, and I guess there are many parents like Sister Xu who are uneasy.
Then Sister Xu was taken to the cafeteria. It was a buffet breakfast with milk, eggs, steamed buns, cakes, soy milk, and fried dough sticks. Some of the food was made by the chef, and some was bought fresh.
Mengmeng spends almost two hundred and sixty yuan on breakfast here for a month.
Does this really make money?
Sister Xu instantly felt a little grateful to her mother-in-law for her love of taking advantage. Indeed, if it were her, she might have missed it.
The education expert said, "You didn't eat breakfast either. Eat here. Our chef used to be the head chef at the Jiangbei Hotel. He made today's thousand-layer puff pastry himself."
When Sister Xu heard this, she immediately swallowed her saliva.
She had once attended a wedding banquet hosted by someone at the Jiangbei Hotel.
It is said that a table costs 5,000 yuan, and every dish is really delicious.
Unexpectedly, the head chef from that place was invited to the kindergarten. Sister Xu was immediately excited. As long as her daughter ate well, it would be more comfortable than letting her eat alone.
She couldn't help but eat a thousand-layer pastry, which filled her mouth with a crispy fragrance, not too sweet or greasy.
It was surprisingly delicious, and the pickles here were all made by Chef Liu.
Especially the cucumber strips, how can they be so fresh and refreshing? After taking a bite, Sister Xu felt it was worth it!
The menu for lunch was already written on the small table: 8 dishes, 1 soup, and a fruit platter.
