Chapter 57 – Starting School (3)

Early Monday morning, Shu Yan took the kids to register at City Xi grade school after breakfast. She informed the guard of the purpose of their visit, but the guard wouldn’t let them through until he could see the application form.

“Okay, go on in,” said the guard finally after he had looked at their application form.

“Can you please tell me where to go to register?” This was Shu Yan’s first time there. She had no idea which direction the office was. 

“Walk all the way down that way. When you see a flower bed, make a left and go up the stairs. The office was the second room on the third floor.”

“Thank you. Say ‘bye bye’ to grandpa.” Ye Jingjing and Ye Tianbao waved and said goodbye to the guard obediently.

City Xi Grade School has 9 classes per level and Ye Jingjing was assigned to Class #5, right smack in the middle. Shu Yan didn’t say much about that. If Ye Jingjing was good at school, she’d naturally be moved to a better class. Contrarily, if her grades were bad, she’d be moved to a worse one. Shu Yan didn’t plan on putting too much pressure on the kids.

“Jingjing’s mom, this is the receipt for the tuition for you. In addition, she’d need specific uniforms and shoes for school. Do you know her size? We suggest buying the next size up, so they will last one more year. Or even two sizes larger. Many parents do that too.” The teacher was a very gentle woman. She was very soft spoken to Shu Yan.

“My kid has always been skinny. Even the smallest size is probably big on her.” Shu Yan had heard of uniforms before. This was, however, the first time she has heard of uniform shoes. 

Before long, the teacher came back with two sets of uniforms. Ye Jingjing tried on the jacket and, sure enough, it was too big for her.

“Jingjing is too skinny. Jingjing’s mom, you need to give her more nutrients. If you don’t do that now, it just might be too late.” The teacher took a look at the white and chubby little boy behind Shu Yan and was a little bit displeased, “We are in a new age now. Both sons and daughters will be nice to their parents when they are successful in life.”

Shu Yan understood what she was saying but didn’t bother to explain herself. “You are right. I will get her some nutritious foods on my way back.”

It was, after all, someone else’s family business and the teacher couldn’t say much more, “School is about to start. Let me take Jingjing to her class now.”

Shu Yan squatted down and adjusted the collar for her daughter, “Listen to your teachers and be nice to your classmates, okay?”

“Mm. I will be a good girl and listen to the teachers.” Ye Jingjing left with the teacher as she turned around and looked back frequently.

Shu Yan was worried, so she sneaked to Class #5 and peeked behind the door. She left with Ye Tianbao only after she saw Ye Jingjing sitting at her seat and talking to the kid next to her.

The process of registering for the kindergarten was much simpler. All she needed to do was to pay and register. Plus, the little brat was heartless. He had forgotten all about his mother as soon as he saw other kids.

Now that both kids were in school, Shu Yan suddenly felt some emptiness in her heart. Something seemed to be missing in the house.

After the kids had gone to school, she needed to start making her own plans. First she needed to lose weight, followed by taking care of her skin. Finally, she’d need to start her own business. Everything needed to move up the schedule.
