Ye Qing nodded. "These two kids will be three years old after their birthdays this year. I think it's time to send them over. We have three younger kids at home. It's too tiring for me and my mother-in-law to take care of five of them at home. It's OK if the kids are obedient, but if they're not, I'll be mad."
Qin Shuang laughed and said, "I only have two kids at home. If they get naughty, I can get mad at them. I also plan to send Mu Qin over this year. It will be a good opportunity for the three kids to have a companion."
"That's a great feeling!"
"We don't have a red education class in our transport team, but there is one in the electronics factory next door. We can send our children there. It costs 1.5 yuan per semester, and they provide a meal at noon."
One dollar and fifty cents per child, that's three dollars for two, so the tuition of six dollars a year is still acceptable.
"Okay then, let's see about sending these three kids over together later."
Qin Shuang smiled happily, "Okay."
After the matter was resolved, Ye Qing was about to get up and go home. "Then sister-in-law, I will go back first and come to see you in the afternoon."
Knowing that she had three children at home, Qin Shuang did not stop her, "Okay, go downstairs slowly."
"Okay, Yanyan and Yueyue are going home."
Ye Qing took the two little kids back home, who were reluctant to leave.
After returning home, the triplets fell asleep. Taking advantage of this gap, Ye Qing asked her mother-in-law to look after the twins while she went out to buy things. They had already eaten two meals of noodles, and they couldn't eat noodles all the time. Adults could stand it, but children couldn't.
As she had just arrived, she couldn't find where the farmers' market and the supply and marketing cooperative were, and she didn't plan to look for them. After she left the family compound, she found an empty corner and slipped into the space.
In the past, she always cooked in a clay pot at home, but now that she has moved to the city and uses a gas stove, she has to prepare a few more small pots. At the very least, a wok and a soup pot are essential. These spaces have everything. She picked out the two most ordinary-looking ones, and then some vegetables, eggs, and meat. These were all she had saved up. She had promised her children to cook meat today, and she couldn't go back on her word.
I ate a popsicle comfortably in the space, and seeing that it was almost time, I quickly picked up my things and headed home.
Ye Qing walked in and asked, "Are you awake?"
"Not yet, what did you buy?"
"I bought two pots, some vegetables, eggs and meat. The children can't be deprived of nutrition."
The twins need to grow, the daughter-in-law needs to be breastfed, and the son is also very busy at work, so no one can go without nutrition. Lin Cuixin has become accustomed to buying good things for the family every few days.
The only worry is that the whole family depends on my son to earn money to support them, and if they eat like this, there will be no money left every month.
“Gao Gao!”
Yanyan shouted excitedly when he saw the oil-paper bag and wanted to reach out to grab it. Yueyue also followed his example and reached out to grab it by standing on tiptoe.
"Shh! Keep your voice down and don't wake up your brothers and sisters. Mommy will get it for you."
When the two babies heard this, they covered their mouths obediently. Ye Qing touched their little heads in appreciation.
"Here, one piece each, eat slowly."
This mung bean cake is made by her herself. It is refreshing and cool in the summer and is loved by both adults and children.
"Mom, you have one too."
Lin Cuixin waved her hand, "I won't eat it, save it for the child."
Ye Qing put it directly into her mouth without saying anything, "Look, the child has worked hard too, he needs to eat!"
“What’s so hard about this?”
Lin Cuixin laughed and took the mung bean cake herself.
How could it not be hard to look after a child? Although she did not seek anything for taking care of the child for her son's family, every time her daughter-in-law spoke, she felt very warmed and thought that it was worth it to risk her life.
"Of course it's hard work. I've asked my sister-in-law, she said there's a red education class in the electronics factory next door, and she's planning to send Mu Qin to school. It's a good opportunity to let Yanyan and Yueyue go together, then we'll have a lot more fun. I'll take you out for a walk sometime."
Lin Cuixin nodded, "That's great. Three children together, they'll have a companion. The tuition in the city must be more expensive than ours, right?"
"It costs $1.50 per semester, so two children costs $3, and they provide a meal at noon. So I can send them to school in the morning and pick them up in the afternoon, and I don't have to worry about anything all day."
"What kind of food do you care about? Is the food good? Or should we pick you up at noon to eat? Ask if the tuition fee can be reduced."
She was worried that the food at school was not as good as at home, and if the two children didn't want to eat, what would they do if they went hungry? The thought made her heart ache.
The child is still young, and Ye Qing is indeed quite worried about this situation. "Let's go back and check out the food there. I think it should be OK."
After all, they are just children who are still growing up. They certainly don’t eat particularly badly. At most, the taste is a little worse than what you make at home.
"OK."
"Let's have stewed rice for lunch today. We haven't had it for a while. Let's put some tomato and egg stew on top. The two kids will love it too."
The two grandsons love to eat, so Lin Cuixin has no objection. "Okay, you do as you see fit."
At noon, Xiang Changlin came back to have lunch, and Ye Qing told him that he would go to the sawmill with Qin Shuang to order a bed in the afternoon.
"How big do you want it to be? Children grow fast, and they will be much taller in two years. It can't be too small, because if it's too big, it won't fit in the house."
Before the two children went to elementary school, she planned to let them sleep in one bed. When they went to elementary school, the triplets would not be small anymore, so she would just make two bunk beds so that the older ones could sleep on the upper one and the younger ones could sleep on the lower one.
It would be even better if you can earn enough money to buy a house by then.
"It should be no problem to make another 1.5 meters tall. It's better than sleeping in a crowded bed."
Ye Qing nodded. This was the only way.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Qing took the twins to Zhou's house again, and Qin Shuang also took the two children to the sawmill.
Qin Shuang took her to find her cousin Lu Tianqi with ease, "Cousin, this is my friend, he wants to order a double bed from you."
Ye Qing smiled politely, "Hello, Comrade Lu."
Lu Tianqi also smiled at her gently, "Hello, how big do you want it to be?"
"One meter and a half by two meters will do. How long will it take to make it?"
Lu Tianqi thought for a moment and said, "Three days at the earliest, and four days at the latest. Since you are Xiaoshuang's friend, I will definitely do it for you first."
"Okay, thank you very much, Comrade Lu. I am just taking advantage of my sister-in-law, haha."
Qin Shuang also smiled heartily without any modesty, "Sister-in-law, I still have some face. Cousin, you have to give my sister a friendly price!"
Lu Tianqi smiled dotingly and helplessly, "I definitely won't ask for more for the friend you brought. I'll just give him ten yuan according to the internal price. But you have to find a way to take it away when it's done. I don't have the manpower to deliver it to you."
"We can do this ourselves, so we won't bother you. Should I just pay the money now?"
Ye Qing did not ask what kind of wood was used. Since the other party had already said so, it would be bad to ask again. What's more, with the relationship with Qin Shuang, he would definitely not use bad materials. It must be worth the money.
Lu Tianqi nodded and said, "Come with me to the accountant's office, pay the money, and I'll just issue a receipt."
"good."
