Chapter 401 Everyone Goes to School 6
Chen Jianye thought about it and realized that made sense. When he was six years old, he was still playing in the mud in the fields, and he wouldn't have gone to school if asked to.
Remembering her daughter's longing and pleading eyes from last night, she immediately softened: "Alright, then let Sanni go to school."
"Great! I don't have to go to school anymore!" Chen Xiaobao cheered.
Chen Erbao looked at him with envy and raised his hand to shout, "I'm still young too, I want to stay home and take care of Liu Ni!"
That way he won't have to go to school!
Suddenly, a hand landed on her ear. Zhou Zhaodi gritted her teeth and twisted it hard: "Little brat! I never see you taking care of Liu Ni before, but now you suddenly remember your little sister?! You better go to school and study hard, or I'll break your legs!"
"It hurts, it hurts!"
Chen Erbao, wincing in pain, begged for mercy: "Okay, Mom! I know!"
Helian Jiao watched with great interest, her big, dark eyes wide open. "Second brother is the most fun!"
Even though they all have two eyes, a nose, and a mouth, the second brother's facial expressions are always incredibly varied.
Zhou Zhaodi then let go of his hand: "I'm not letting you go to school to waste your time. If you don't study hard, I'll make you eat stir-fried pork with bamboo sticks every day!"
Just listening to it made Chen Erbao's butt hurt, and he nodded repeatedly in agreement.
He's terrified of his mother, that tigress; he's determined to marry a wife who will always listen to him!
Chen Dabao didn't want to eat stir-fried pork with bamboo sticks, so he silently accepted his fate of going to school.
Zhou Zhaodi then looked at Ma Xiulian and said, "Mom, Liu Ni is almost two years old and doesn't need anyone to take care of her anymore. Si Ni can help look after her."
These days, children aren't spoiled. Two-year-olds don't need to be carried or held; they crawl around and play on their own.
Ma Xiulian thought so too, and said to Chen Jianguo and his wife, "Now Si Ni only needs to look after Liu Ni, and taking care of another child is more than enough."
“But the chores at home—” A look of hesitation appeared on Chen Jianguo’s face.
Ma Xiulian interrupted him with a stern face: "When there weren't many girls in the family, didn't we all do it ourselves?! And after the family split up, we only did the work for our own little family. How much physical effort or time could it take?!"
Seeing that her grandmother was angry, Da Ni quickly said, "Grandma, I won't go to school. I'll just stay home and do chores."
Although she was happy that her grandmother let her go to school, she didn't want to make things difficult for her parents or make them work so hard.
Fortunately, Zhao Mei felt sorry for her eldest daughter, so she pleaded with her husband, "Honey, I'll do the housework. Let Da Ni and Er Ni do it."
There are only a few of them in their family, so there isn't much housework. She can do it when she gets home from work.
Hearing this, Da Ni was deeply moved.
Then he clenched his fist and mustered his courage to say, "Dad, I promise I won't let my studies interfere with my work!"
She wanted to earn money like her aunt to support her parents and give them a better life!
Looking at his eldest daughter, who was always the most sensible and hardworking, Chen Jianguo felt sorry for her. After all, both daughters were his flesh and blood, so he relented and agreed: "Okay, both of them can go to school."
Everyone was overjoyed, except for Chen Erbao, who looked utterly dejected. He simply couldn't sit still in the classroom!
After Gu Tingyun arrived, Chen Erbao complained to him, casually hooking his arm around his shoulder with a distressed expression: "Little brother, I'm about to go to school, it's so tragic and painful!"
Gu Tingyun took a step back expressionlessly and said calmly, "I want to go to school too."
