Chapter 55 Starting School (1)



“Mom, can I really start school on Monday?” Ye Jingjing had been excited ever since she had learned that she could start school in two days that afternoon.

“Yes, you will be starting school very soon. Are you happy?” replied Shu Yan as she pulled the clothes out and hung them up on the bed rails. The landlord was so stingy; there really was nothing other than two old beds.

The new house has a built-in closet, buying another one would be very wasteful. Suddenly, Shu Yan missed Taobao dearly. It has everything and would deliver it to your house. A simple cloth closet would cost less than $100; it wouldn’t even matter if she had to throw it away afterward.

But, she’d need to store their clothes somehow in the next few months. Shu Yan had asked for a couple of cardboard boxes from a shop owner when she was buying stuff. She placed one of them at the end of the bed for clean clothes and cut off the tabs on the other ones and put it across from the bed for dirty clothes.

She ran downstairs and purchased a cable and a few nails. On her way back, she purposefully picked up a piece of rock. She “hammered” the two nails on each side of the wall and pulled the cable across the room. When she was done, she tugged on it gently. It was somewhat sturdy. She then transferred all the clothes hanging at the end of the bed onto the cable. That’d have to do for now.

Neither one of the children were hungry for dinner after all the cakes that they had earlier at the sales center. Shu Yan just had a tomato for dinner.

Ye Jingjing was sleeping in the other room. She was used to sleeping by herself at her old place, so she wasn’t afraid. Ye Tianbao would be sharing a bed with Shu Yan. He was jumping up and down the bed when he first got on, making the wooden bed creak with a “thud”, “thud” noise.

“Tianbao, go to bed. I’ll take you to see the new house tomorrow,” said Shu Yan gently as she tried to control her temper after she had returned from collecting the clothes from the patio.

Now, she fully understood why so many women had bad temper after they had gotten married and had children. It wasn’t that they wanted to lose their temper, but life was just tiring. At least she has money now; she couldn’t even imagine what it’d be like if she didn’t even have money.

“Stop jumping. Mom is going to get mad at you if you don’t stop now.” Shu Yan recalled some child-rearing expert saying how one shouldn’t say “no” to a child, nor threaten them. One must patiently reason with them. She’d like to have that expert come to reason with an unruly child. She’d love to see how he could convince an unruly child to sit down and listen to his reasoning.

Looking at Shu Yan’s darkened look, Ye Tianbao finally stopped jumping and laid down, “Mom, I am thirsty.”

“......” Shu Yan got up and poured him a glass of water. She waited for him to finish drinking and put the glass down before she went back to lay down on the bed.

“Mom. I want to go pee. Got to go pee.”

“......” Shu Yan carried him to the bathroom to pee before she returned and laid down.

“Mom, I can’t sleep.”

Shu Yan..... just turned the lights off and shoved Ye Tianbao into the bed, “Sleep. Otherwise I am going to leave you home by yourself tomorrow and only take your sister out to play.”

After a long while, he finally fell asleep. Shu Yan let out a sigh of relief. As the saying goes, one would only know the sacrifice of a parent after one has their own children. That was so true. She never knew how tiring it could be to raise kids. She thought about her old schoolmates and colleagues. They had to work and take care of the kids, along with cooking and cleaning. She had made the right decision to not get married in the past.

In the morning, while the two kids were still sleeping, Shu Yan brushed her teeth and went to get breakfast. The sun had just risen when she returned home. She woke both children up. She wanted to go check the new place today. She wouldn’t feel right not checking in on it at all.
