Chapter 200
"Are you talking about Baoya going to school?" Song Jianye asked.
"Yes." Yang Yulan nodded. "Baoya is five years old this year. Although she's a year early, it shouldn't be a big deal. Now we're all away during the day, so it's just her, Tiantian, mother, and second sister-in-law. She's been here for the past few months, and there haven't been any peers around to play with her. So I thought I'd talk to mother about whether I could send her to school when school starts. By then, her brothers will be there, and she'll have playmates."
He sighed and said, "Bowen and Tianen have been staying at home for summer vacation this month, and Baoya looks much happier than before.
Song Jianye listened and nodded, then said thoughtfully, "Okay, I'll go tell Mom tomorrow."
"Go to sleep quickly, you have to go to work tomorrow." Song Jianye said, fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan in his hand.
"It's not that hot now, so you don't need to fan yourself. You should go to bed soon. Your arms will be sore soon, and how will you work tomorrow?" Yang Yulan reached out to pull Song Jianye's hand.
"It's okay. It won't bother you for now. Go to sleep. I'll fan you for a while and then I'll fall asleep."
Yang Yulan couldn't resist him, so she didn't say anything. She closed her eyes, felt the breeze on her face, and slowly fell asleep.
The next day, everyone went to work after dinner. Baoya, along with Tiantian, followed her brothers. Before, they all went to school, so they could only play for a while when they got home in the evening. That was the time she looked forward to the most. Now that they didn't have to go to school, they could play together all day, and Baoya felt very happy every day.
When everyone got home from work in the evening, Song Jianye told Feng Guizhi about this matter: "Mom, Yulan and I have discussed it. We want Baoya to go to school this year. Tiantian is still young, and Baoya has no peers around her. We thought sending her to school would give her more playmates."
Besides, they have a monthly salary now and can afford Baoya's tuition, so even if she can't keep up with the course, she can still stay in the first grade next year. The main reason is that she feels that without anyone to play with her at home, she might not be as happy as she is at school.
Feng Guizhi understood immediately. She pondered for a moment, then nodded and agreed: "Alright, then let's sign Baoya up when school starts."
Song Jianye smiled and said, "Okay, thank you, mother."
Song Jianye went back to the house and told Yang Yulan the news. Although Yang Yulan guessed that Feng Guizhi would
She agreed, but she still felt happy after hearing it. Seeing Baoya coming in, she put down the clothes she was folding and waved her over.
"Baoya, would you be happy if mommy sent you to school?"
Baoya's eyes widened when she heard this, then blinked: "Go to school?"
"right."
After Baoya got the confirmation, she nodded her head vigorously: "Happy, Baoya wants to go to school~"
Baoya was particularly happy when she thought about being able to spend every day with her brothers. The only thing that made her a little unhappy was that she couldn't be with Tiantian anymore. However, Baoya also knew that Tiantian was too young to go to school yet.
"Okay, then mom will register you when school starts, and then you can go to school with your brothers." Yang Yulan rubbed Baoya's head and said.
Baoya nodded her head, smiled, then reached out and hugged Yang Yulan, burying her head in her legs.
Yang Yulan smiled and looked down at her, feeling like her heart was about to melt.
Then Tian'en came in. Baoya raised her head and told him the news with sparkling eyes. Tian'en was overjoyed when he heard it. He turned to Yang Yulan for confirmation: "Really? Mom, when school starts, little Bao will go to school with us?"
Yang Yulan smiled and nodded: "Yes, after registering, Baoya will go to school with you."
"Oh! That's great!" Tian'en was excited and very happy.
Then he took Baoya outside and told Bowen, Yuanbao and the others the news. The younger ones were all very happy when they heard it: "Really? Little Bao is going to school?"
"Very good!"
"From now on, we can go to school and go home together with our little sister Xiaobao!"
"Little sister Xiaobao, from now on when you are in school, your brothers will protect you."
"When the get out of class is over, I can go jump rope with little sister Xiaobao." Yun Duo happily picked up Baoya.
Seeing them all so happy, Baoya's smile was particularly bright. Although there was still a month before school started, she was already looking forward to it.
When they sat down at the table to eat, Chen Xiuxiu said, "Baoya girl is going to school?"
"Then Yuanbao will be under a lot of pressure. I heard that Baoya has learned a lot of new words and can even do addition and subtraction within 20. Yuanbao, as a big brother, don't lose out to your little sister when the time comes."
The adults at the table all laughed when they heard this. Yuanbao blushed and said, "I, I will definitely
Study." However, even if he studies hard, he may still not be able to compare with his little sister Xiaobao.
Li Qingyan also said, "When Baoya starts school, you brothers have to take good care of her, okay?"
Yuanbao took the lead and nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, no one will dare to bully little sister Xiaobao."
The adults all laughed, and the meal passed by in such a cheerful and laughing manner.
By August, after a month of playing around, the little ones finally settled down and started doing their summer homework. Especially with Li Qingyan still at home, they couldn't slack off even if they wanted to. They had to diligently do their homework for an hour every day, and if they didn't finish the assigned amount, they had to continue.
Because Baoya is about to go to school, she is very motivated to study. She studies with Bowen Boyu and others every day. Yuanbao is afraid that he will be left behind by Baoya, so he does his homework more seriously.
Feng Guizhi had also begun preparing early, planning to sew a schoolbag for Baoya. She had ready-made cloth, all imperfections that Yang Yuzhi had specially left out. Feng Guizhi asked Baoya to pick a color she liked, and then she would sit by the main hall doorway and sew for her during her free time. Once the bag was finished, Feng Guizhi even embroidered a small gray rabbit on it, making it look particularly chic.
When Baoya received it, she couldn't let it go. She held it tightly and refused to let go. She loved it very much. Then she hugged Feng Guizhi's neck and smiled brightly at her.
Seeing that the start of school was getting closer, Yang Yulan thought for a moment and said to Song Jianye, "I want to take some time out these few days to go back to my parents' home. I've moved here for half a year and haven't been back yet. It's summer vacation now, so I want to go back and take a look."
Otherwise, after school starts, Tianen and Baoya will both go to school, so we will only have time on Saturdays and Sundays. But going back and forth in two days will be a bit rushed. It’s okay for the adults, but the children will have to endure it.
Song Jianye thought the same, so he nodded in agreement: "Okay, let's do it this Friday. I'll tell Master Song in advance."
"Okay." Yang Yulan didn't have to worry about her job. She just needed to tell Sun Suyun to take over for two days. The next day, Yang Yulan talked to Sun Suyun about it, and she agreed immediately.
Soon Song Jianye's leave was also settled. They had just finished a batch of orders and were free, so it was easy to ask for leave. After everything was prepared, Yang Yulan said to Feng Guizhi,
I told Baoya and Tianen about this, and then on the day of the wedding, the family of four went out early with their things.
They had to catch buses and rides all the way, and finally arrived at the Yang family's door after lunch. Fortunately, they had some food in their bag, and Yang Yulan gave some to Tian'en and Baoya in advance to fill their stomachs, so they weren't too hungry.
"Mom, Dad." Yang Yulan called twice from the doorway.
"Grandma, Grandpa."
"Grandma, Grandpa~" Tian'en and Baoya also shouted.
Soon, Yang's mother heard the sound and came to open the door. Seeing the people standing outside, she was surprised: "Oh, my grandson and granddaughter are here! Come in quickly."
Yang Guozhong came out of the house and saw Yang Yulan and Song Jianye entering with Baoya and Tianen. He was a little surprised: "Jianye is here?"
Tian En and Bao Ya called out sweetly: "Grandma, Grandpa~"
"Hey, good boy, good boy, grandma's good grandchildren." Mother Yang looked at Tian'en and Baoya's smiling faces, and the wrinkles on her face smoothed out.
Originally, Yang Guozhong was preparing to go out to work, but now seeing that Yang Yulan's family had arrived, he simply did not go out in the afternoon and stayed at home to talk with his son-in-law and grandchildren.
"A while ago, your eldest sister came back and told us that you and she are now working in the same factory. It's good to be a regular employee. You'll get a salary every month, and at least you won't have to worry about going hungry."
"Everything costs money in the county town. Thanks to your hard work, you all got regular jobs. Your mother and I don't have to worry anymore."
"I happen to work in the same factory as your eldest sister. If you run into any problems, go find her. She's been there for a few years, after all, so she might be able to help you out."
Yang Yulan agreed with a smile. Afterwards, Yang Guozhong asked about Song Jianye's work, and Song Jianye explained everything in detail. It was clear, and it saved the two of them from worrying.
Afterwards, Yang Yulan told Baoya about going to school: "I plan to send Baoya to school when the semester starts. Then she will have peers to play with at school."
Yang Guozhong listened and nodded: "That's good, otherwise she will be staying with the fourth son's little girl and won't be able to talk to her."
Yang Yulan saw that Wang Mengjiao was not there, so she asked, "Where is Mengjiao?"
"She went back to her mother's house. She will probably be back before dinner tonight. The little one insisted on going with her and wouldn't let me carry her. She wanted to walk all the way there by herself." Yang's mother smiled again when she mentioned her granddaughter.
"Are they all leaving now? That's fast."
“
Yes, and they are particularly resourceful..." When it comes to children, there is no end to what can be said, especially the little ones who are so smart and make a lot of funny things. Mother Yang couldn't stop laughing while talking about it, and Yang Yulan was also happy when she heard it.
As she was talking, Yang's mother clapped her hands and said, "Look at me, I'm so confused. You guys haven't had lunch yet after all this time, right? I'll quickly make you something to fill your stomachs."
After saying that, Yang's mother hurried to the kitchen. Yang Guozhong also went over to help stoke the fire, not asking Yang Yulan and Song Jianye to help. "You must be exhausted from the journey. Take a rest. Your mother and I will handle it."
Yang Yulan couldn't persuade her parents, so she didn't insist any longer. She sat down with Song Jianye to rest for a while, and gave Tianen and Baoya some water.
