Chapter 257 Going to School
"Forehead..."
Xie Wang glanced at his brother and sister-in-law out of the corner of his eye. It seemed that the couple had not done enough ideological work.
But it is understandable that going to school is not as comfortable as staying at home without any restrictions every day.
Li Zhi's pretty eyebrows slightly raised, and she slowly finished her food before speaking, "Didn't we agree on this a few days ago? Why are you suddenly going back on your word?"
Li Yanjing pursed her lips, lowered her head slightly, and said nothing.
"Oh, it's okay. If you don't want to go, then we won't go today." Huo Shu naturally loved his precious grandson and gave in to him in everything. He smiled and said, "Whenever you want to go to school, we can go there, okay?"
Jiang Ruyun agreed and nodded. "That's right. I'll call the kindergarten later. We won't go today. We can go to school anytime anyway."
When Xie Wang and Gu Yu heard their mother's words, they looked at each other at the same time, obviously thinking of themselves.
When they don't want to go to school, they are severely criticized and beaten. It's really unfair treatment.
Li Yanjing's eyes lit up, and he quickly raised his head. Just as he was about to say yes, he heard Li Zhi's serious voice:
"No, I have to go today."
Li Yanjing's eyes dimmed again. He clasped his hands and hummed sullenly.
"Zhizhi, this is Yanjing's first time going to school, and he's not mentally prepared yet. It's not a bad idea to go a few days later." Jiang Ruyun suggested.
"Yeah, it won't be a problem later, so why not not go today?" Gu Yuntian paused and continued, "Otherwise, it would be bad if he develops a dislike for studying."
"Yes, yes, your father is right. You must not develop an aversion to studying." Jiang Ruyun agreed.
When Gu Yu heard this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. Why didn't anyone care about his aversion to studying?!
Tsk tsk tsk, she is really spoiled to the point of being unbearable to look at.
Li Zhi looked up at her parents, a hint of helplessness flashing in her eyes, "Dad, Mom, don't give in to him on everything. If he doesn't want to go today, he'll find another excuse not to go next time. How can we keep putting it off?"
"How could that be?" Jiang Ruyun said, "Yanjing, quickly promise your mother that you will go to school obediently next time."
Li Yanjing nodded and said, "Mom, I will definitely go to school obediently next time."
"I remember you promised me the same thing that day." Li Zhi said.
“…”
Li Yanjing immediately looked at his father who was sitting on the other side of him for help, hoping that he could say something for him.
Xie Tingzhou naturally believed that his wife was the most important thing in the world, and he would stand on Li Zhi's side unconditionally no matter what. Besides, it was really not okay for his son to not want to go to school like this.
"Since we have already agreed to go to school, as a man you should stick to your word and not go back on your word, so you must go to school today."
Xie Tingzhou reached out and picked up the chopsticks that Li Yanjing had just put down, handed them to him, raised his chin slightly, and said in a tone that did not allow for argument: "Eat quickly, and I'll send you to school after you finish cleaning up."
Seeing his precious grandson's pitiful appearance, Huo Shu felt so distressed that he couldn't help but want to discuss it again, "Oh, stop the boat, or let's just call it a day..."
Xie Tingzhou raised his eyes to look at her and interrupted what she was about to say, "Mom, don't worry about this matter. Even if you spoil me, there should be a limit."
"Yes, Mom, we can't be careless about going to school. Don't worry about it. Just listen to my brother and sister-in-law." Xie Wang said to smooth things over.
Li Zhi withdrew his gaze from Li Yanjing and continued eating from his bowl. "Alright, hurry up and eat, or you'll be late."
Seeing this, Li Yanjing knew that he had to go to school today. He nodded, reached out to take the chopsticks, and started eating.
......
Not long after breakfast, everyone got in the car and headed to the kindergarten together.
The kindergarten is very close to Gu's house, and it only takes about ten minutes to drive there.
Li Zhi and the others arrived relatively early. After finding a parking space, they took Li Yanjing out of the car and walked towards the kindergarten gate together.
After walking to the door and stopping, Li Zhi greeted the teacher who was waiting at the door, then turned around and took Li Yanjing's small schoolbag from Xie Tingzhou.
She bent down to help Li Yanjing put him on his back, raised her hand to straighten his clothes, and said, "Okay, we'll take you here. Be good and listen to your teachers at school, and we'll pick you up after school."
Li Yanjing nodded, "I understand, Mom."
Li Zhi hummed and patted his shoulder, "Go say goodbye to grandpa and grandma."
Li Yanjing responded, turned around, waved goodbye to Jiang Ruyun and the others, and then obediently walked into the school holding the teacher's hand.
Li Zhi looked at her son's back as he left. She thought she wouldn't feel anything, as it was just a matter of going to school. However, she didn't expect that she would still feel a little empty in her heart.
Only when his figure disappeared from her sight did she slowly retract her gaze, turned to look at Xie Tingzhou beside her, and said, "Let's go."
Xie Tingzhou noticed her reluctance and suggested, "Why don't you go in with him and stay with him for half a day?"
Li Zhi's eyes lit up, "Is it okay?"
Xie Tingzhou's deep eyes were filled with soft light. "Of course, just say hello to the teacher. We'll just watch secretly from the side. Just don't disturb them."
Li Zhi nodded, "Okay!"
She paused, then turned to look at Jiang Ruyun and the others and continued, "Dad, Mom, you guys go back first. Tingzhou and I will stay here for a while to see if he can adapt."
Jiang Ruyun smiled and said, "Okay, we'll go back first. If there's anything else, please send us a message."
"Okay." Li Zhi said.
After everyone else left, Li Zhi and Xie Tingzhou immediately walked towards the school.
After finding the classroom, Li Zhi saw her son at a glance through the window.
The other children inside were almost polarized. The brave ones had already started playing on their own, while the majority were crying and looking for their parents. The teachers were trying to comfort them.
Only Li Yanjing sat calmly in the corner seat, looking down at the book he brought with him, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.
Li Zhi touched her chin with her slender fingers and said with some concern, "Is this really okay? Isn't he a little too bored now? He's completely immersed in his own world and doesn't interact or play with other children."
"Due to his childhood experiences and his IQ, he is more mature than his peers. He also knows and is exposed to more things. In his eyes, his peers are all childish little brats, so naturally he will not take the initiative to communicate with them," said Xie Tingzhou.
Li Zhi nodded, "That's right."
