Chapter 490 School Starts
"Yinyin, you are so willing to do this." Zhou Xiaomei couldn't understand Liu Yinyin's thoughts. Looking back on her age, Gu Yanyan was only five years old.
How can a five-year-old child be sent to school?
Little girl Zhou Xiaomei is six years old this year, but she is reluctant to send her to school so early.
But to say that Liu Yinyin is not good to Gu Yanyan...the fact is not so. She and Gu Cheng are very good to their sons.
Liu Yinyin said indifferently: "I sent him to a nursery when he was three years old. Boys still need to develop their independence."
Zhou Xiaomei didn't understand all this, but she also understood that Liu Yinyin did this for the good of the child.
Otherwise, who would be willing to go to town to pick up and drop off children every day for no reason?
Zhou Xiaomei clicked her tongue twice: "You educated people know how to teach your children."
School starts after the Lantern Festival.
That morning, Liu Yinyin served the triplets breakfast and called Zhou Xiaomei to help look after the children.
Afterwards, I rode a bicycle to take Gu Yanyan and Chen Xiaofei to school together.
Both children were carrying new schoolbags, wearing new clothes, and seemed to be in a good mood.
Liu Yinyin sent them to school and found out the teacher's office.
Because I am a freshman, I have to go to my grade teacher to find out the situation first.
There are not many students at that time, with only two or three classes in each grade. There are more students in the first grade, but by the fourth and fifth grades, the number of students will become fewer and fewer.
Gu Yanyan was assigned to Class 1, Grade 1. The head teacher was a young female teacher in her twenties named Zhang.
"Teacher Zhang, I'll trouble you with Gu Yan from now on." Liu Yinyin handed Gu Yanyan to her, "My child is young and may not be sensible. If he does something wrong, just tell me directly. I will teach him a lesson when I get home."
Teacher Zhang knew that there would be a new student in the class, and he also knew that the new student was young.
To be honest, when Teacher Zhang first heard the news, he was a little unhappy, thinking about the child who was not even five years old.
How can I send him to school so early?
Teacher Zhang doesn't want to be like the teachers in the nursery, who have to take care of the children's meals and toilet needs.
Seeing that Gu Yanyan was relatively obedient, I was not very happy at the moment, because the school was not a place that specialized in looking after children.
After hesitating for a moment, Teacher Zhang couldn't help but say, "Mother Gu Yan, your child is still so young. Not only does he not understand in class, but he is also easily bullied by older children in other classes. It's actually not appropriate to send him to school, don't you think?"
Liu Yinyin pursed her lips and smiled: "You are right, but the child's father and I really don't have time to take care of the child. His father works in the army and sometimes he is on a mission and can't come home for two or three months."
Teacher Zhang was slightly stunned: "Gu Yan's father is a soldier?"
She only knew that there would be a new student in her class, but she had no idea about the student's family situation.
Liu Yinyin nodded: "Yes, it's in the nearby military district. His father is a deputy division-level cadre and is usually very busy. If Gu Yan has anything to do, you can go directly to the army to find someone."
Liu Yinyin said this not to show off, but just hoped that the other party would consider her status.
Please take good care of Gu Yanyan. At least, don't let him be bullied by other kids in school.
In any case, after hearing what Liu Yinyin said, Teacher Zhang's attitude improved a lot.
After dealing with Gu Yanyan's affairs, Liu Yinyin also went over to Chen Xiaofei's place.
The two children have to stay in school all day today and have lunch there.
Liu Yinyin brought both food and receipts.
In the morning, I also told Zhou Xiaomei's two sons to take them to the cafeteria for lunch at noon...
Thinking about it carefully, Liu Yinyin felt a little unsure. In the eyes of outsiders, she was indeed a bit cruel as a mother.
Sending the child to school at such a young age.
Despite this, Liu Yinyin still wanted to give it a try.
As I said, it would be best if Gu Yanyan could stay in school to study, otherwise it would be a shame.
Liu Yinyin took him home. She was not the kind of person who would force a child.
After leaving school, Liu Yinyin did not go home immediately.
She rode her bicycle to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought two bags of peach cakes and two bags of candy.
The supply and marketing cooperative had pork available, but Liu Yinyin arrived late, so there were only a few bare bones left on the chopping board. No tickets were required, and the price was cheap.
Liu Yinyin didn't mind at all and bought two big bones to make soup at home.
On the way home, Liu Yinyin smuggled out two pounds of pork belly, two bags of dried biscuits, a bag of apples, and a pound of prawns from the system.
At noon, I chopped some shrimp paste and stewed shrimp paste and egg custard for the children.
"Sister-in-law, thank you for your help." Liu Yinyin took out a bag of walnuts and a bag of candy from the backpack and gave them to Zhou Xiaomei, "They are for the children."
Zhou Xiaomei said, "Xiaoxiao has eaten a lot of your food, just save it for Yanyan."
Liu Yinyin stuffed the things into her hands and said, "Sister-in-law, if you don't accept it, I won't dare to bother you to help me look after the triplets in the future."
It’s not that Liu Yinyin’s sewing skills are not good, but there will be many troubles for Zhou Xiaomei in the future.
This is not a one- or two-day thing. Liu Yinyin would feel embarrassed if she didn't send something.
Zhou Xiaomei still didn't take it: "You have been helping me take care of Xiaoxiao on weekdays, and you have been teaching her to study. During the holidays, she also did her homework at your house."
"Let's help each other out, and don't do such nonsense in the future."
Liu Yinyin: “…”
Having said that, Liu Yinyin no longer insisted.
At noon, Liu Yinyin made fried pork with peppers and cabbage stewed with vermicelli, and the staple food was white rice.
The triplets had shrimp paste and chicken egg custard.
Without Gu Yanyan's presence, Liu Yinyin felt a little uncomfortable for a while.
Although Gu Cheng didn't say it, he must have felt the same way in his heart. After dinner, he couldn't help but said, "I'll take two hours off this afternoon to pick up Yanyan from school."
Liu Yinyin was slightly stunned: "...Okay."
On ordinary days, Gu Cheng rarely says such words.
School ends at four o'clock.
It was not until six o'clock that Gu Chengcai came back on his bicycle.
Liu Yinyin quickly glanced at Gu Yanyan, and the young man did not show any unhappiness on his face.
The clothes on his body were clean, so he probably didn't fight with anyone.
Chen Xiaofei is in a similar situation.
Liu Yinyin secretly breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed the boy's head: "How was school today?"
Gu Yanyan thought of something and said with a bitter face: "Mom, studying is too boring..."
There are many children in school, but having to stay in the classroom and study all day is not fun at all.
Liu Yinyin: "Don't you like it?"
Gu Yanyan nodded and shook his head: "I don't like it, but I don't hate it either."
Although he is a little guy, he speaks in a very serious manner.
Liu Yinyin smiled and asked him, "Do you still want to go to school tomorrow?"
