After dinner, Wen Shuqiao seemed to be in better spirits.
She and Can Can nestled on the sofa, examining the camera. Shen Jia Zhou washed some fruit and placed it on the coffee table. Watching Wen Shu Qiao fiddling with the camera, he remembered there was something they hadn't discussed.
"What do you think about sending Can Can to kindergarten?" Shen Jiazhou asked, beckoning Can Can to come closer. Can Can shook her head twice and then snuggled up to her aunt.
Shen Jiazhou had no choice but to stand up and sit down, glancing at the camera in Wen Shuqiao's hand: "That kindergarten offers trial classes. The principal even sent me the class schedule the night I went there. Do you want to take a look?"
He had been wanting to talk to Wen Shuqiao about it, but he had been too busy and hadn't had a chance to ask her these past two days.
Wen Shuqiao put down the camera, and Shen Jiazhou handed her his phone. On the screen was a picture of a day at the kindergarten sent by the principal, showing every time period from arrival to departure.
What I ate for lunch will also be recorded.
Wen Shuqiao glanced at them all. At Can Can's age, she would be going to the middle class. Compared to the pure play class in the lower class, the middle class has a lot more Chinese, math and English courses.
She handed the phone back to Shen Jiazhou and asked, "I don't know much about kindergartens, what do you think?"
“We can let him try it out,” Shen Jiazhou said. “If Cancan gets used to it, we’ll send him there next spring. If he doesn’t get used to it, we’ll have time to find someone else. Or, after I finish dealing with things at Shen’s in a few days, I can go and look around the area around my company. That way, it will be convenient for me to pick him up from get off work.”
Wen Shuqiao could tell that Shen Jiazhou still preferred a trial period.
She nodded: "Then let's send him to a trial class next Monday?"
Can Can should have some peers by now.
“Okay, I’ll have Xiao Miao contact the headmaster tomorrow.” Shen Jiazhou thought for a moment, “I will also tell the headmaster to keep Can Can’s identity a secret, so that no random people will bother him.”
Let him try studying quietly.
“Okay.” Wen Shuqiao said, “Go and make the arrangements. You can also give him some time to prepare mentally over the next couple of days.”
The two adults quickly arranged Cancan's "activities" for next week, who was sandwiched between them.
Can Can looked up unhappily, glancing at her aunt and then at her uncle, but neither of them looked at her.
He leaned back unhappily on the sofa, and his aunt only glanced at him before going back to talking to his uncle.
He couldn't help but ask, "Why can't I understand what they're saying?"
The system gave a perfunctory "uh-huh": "You'll understand when you've gone to kindergarten, elementary school, middle school, high school, university, graduate school, and even a doctorate."
Why are you saying things I don't understand? Can Can asked, puzzled. "I don't understand!"
The system said: "You don't need to understand it now. By the time you truly understand, you'll already be immersed in it."
Do you understand now? You'd already be crying.
After Wen Shuqiao finished talking with Shen Jiazhou, Shen Jiazhou asked, "Did you take your temperature?"
"I forgot, I'll go get tested now." Wen Shuqiao actually felt better; she was in good spirits and had no physical discomfort.
She was about to go find the thermometer when she saw Shen Jiazhou pick it up from the coffee table and hold it out to her: "Take a temperature check."
"Thank you." Wen Shuqiao took the thermometer and checked her temperature; her fever had indeed subsided.
Shen Jiazhou also glanced at it: "Even now that the fever has subsided, we can't let our guard down, otherwise it will be like this afternoon, where someone suddenly fainted."
He thought for a moment and said, "You can sleep in the children's room tonight, and Can Can and I will sleep in the master bedroom. That way, it will be easier to contact each other if anything happens tonight."
Actually, he had seen Wen Shuqiao every morning these past few days. When he didn't see her this morning, he assumed that Wen Shuqiao was tired yesterday and wanted to rest, and he didn't think that Wen Shuqiao was sick at all.
It has to be said that being unconscious is really frightening.
Upon hearing that her aunt was sleeping in the children's room, Can Can immediately transformed from a lazy Can into an excited Can: "Yes, yes! I'll sleep with my aunt!"
Shen Jiazhou lightly flicked his forehead: "Dream on, you and I will sleep in my room."
Can Can crossed her arms like him, and said unhappily, "Uncle, you're an adult now, you should sleep by yourself."
Shen Jiazhou scoffed twice: "Your aunt is an adult too, she needs to sleep by herself. Why don't you sleep by yourself? I agree."
Can Can was shocked, afraid that her aunt had agreed, and quickly said, "This, this is different!"
“Same baby.” Shen Jiazhou snorted. “How is it different? Give me your reasons. Don’t try to talk to me about babies. I won’t listen.”
Can Can looked to Wen Shu Qiao for help, but Wen Shu Qiao silently looked away, avoiding Can Can's gaze.
Shen Jiazhou is right. As adults, we cannot be "held hostage" by the baby theory!
The system gloated: 【Oh dear~ baby~ hurry up and tell me the reason~ why did you stop talking? I always thought you had so much to say!】
Can Can was so angry that she didn't want to talk to the system anymore. She turned to the side, hugged Wen Shu Qiao's arm, and hid her face, sulking!
However, after getting angry for a while, he secretly looked up at his aunt, hoping that she would coax him so that he could "generously" forgive his uncle.
Unfortunately, his aunt didn't receive his distress signal. Well, it's because his aunt was sick today, so she didn't notice him. He understands!
[...] The system was almost amused: "You really know how to make excuses."
Shen Jiazhou naturally noticed that Can Can was secretly looking at Wen Shuqiao. He chuckled and deliberately said, "I'll go get your blanket for you and take it to the master bedroom. It's getting late, so take a shower and go to sleep."
Can Can looked utterly dejected: "Auntie, please, I don't want to sleep with Uncle."
Wen Shuqiao asked, "Then you sleep by yourself?"
"I don't want to sleep alone either," Can Can said angrily. "I want to sleep with you, Auntie. Don't you love me anymore? Didn't you say that baby is the person you love the most?"
Why can't my aunt fulfill this small request?
Shen Jiazhou got up from the sofa and very considerately "scooped" Cancan up, wrapping his arm around his waist and trapping him between his body and arm. He said, "Who taught you these cheesy words? Don't you dare learn them!"
Can Can howled, "You bad uncle, I'm going to turn into a hungry wolf and eat you up, woof woof~"
Wen Shuqiao couldn't help but laugh, and her eyes became a little wet with laughter.
Shen Jiazhou glanced at her, then picked up Can Can and walked towards the children's room, saying with amusement as they went, "What a terrifying hungry wolf."
But so what?
He doesn't care at all!
