With a calm deanor, Kang Li responds to her little girl: "Of course it matters. Look at children your age, who isn’t in preschool?"
"Great-grandpa and grandpa said that people are different!"
Tangyuan launches his Cute Attack: "Since my siblings and I are smart, we should do the things we want to do and enjoy doing. Mom, is that not allowed?"
"Mom, test us with questions!"
Before returning ho for sumr break, my eldest, second brother, sister, and Xiao En brother all taught them knowledge from the elentary textbooks. If he wasn’t worried Mom would strongly oppose, he actually wanted to suggest going straight to third grade.
Bun sneaks a glance, as he also launches his Cute Attack at Kang Li.
"What’s going on?"
Luo Yanqing tidies up the kitchen and cos to the living room, sees Bun and the other three lined up, the little girl staring wide-eyed at him, finding it amusing.
"Ask yourself."
Kang Li rubs her forehead and leans casually against the sofa, fully displaying a laid-back attitude.
Seeing this, affection and helplessness fill Luo Yanqing’s ink-black eyes as he curls his lips: "Okay, I’ll ask myself." Shifting his gaze, Luo Yanqing looks at Bun and the other three, but before he can speak, they cooperatively express their desires.
"Do you know that Mom is doing this for your own good?"
Luo Yanqing maintains an indifferent expression, staring at Bun: "You answer."
"..."
With lips tightly pressed, Bun stiffens his face for a mont, nodding: "I know."
"Since you know, why do you insist?"
Luo Yanqing furrows his brows: "Isn’t playing with peers in preschool enjoyable?"
"Dad! Preschool kids are so childish. Playing with them makes us feel silly!"
Tangyuan’s Cute Attack has so effect on Luo Yanqing, making him suppress a smile, and his expression turns serious: "You must learn to blend in, not stand out. After all, you’re still young now. If you can’t play with peers, how will you handle the road ahead?"
"Dad, you’re wrong! We do play with the kids, but we feel it’s a waste of ti in our hearts. We haven’t said this in front of the kids!"
Guoguo uses her Cute Attack on Luo Yanqing, saying in a soft voice: "Even though we want to study more, we know what it ans to balance work and rest!"
After pondering for a mont, Luo Yanqing says: "How about this... You continue preschool, but Dad will prepare more books at ho for you. Once you return from preschool, you can read them, and ask Mom if you don’t understand. How’s that?"
"Mom is busy with work."
This is Bun’s little voice: "Before preschool, great-grandpa and grandpa said Teacher Ryan and Teacher Lin will be flying over soon. They’ll stay at the old house and teach and my siblings like before."
Hearing this, Luo Yanqing looks towards Kang Li, clearly asking "How did I not know?"
eting his gaze, Kang Li shakes her head: "I didn’t know either!"
"What’s your plan now?"
Luo Yanqing asks.
Kang Li ponders, then says: "Since Dad arranged it, it wouldn’t make sense to refuse..."
She looks at Bun and the other three: "You attend preschool first, after your fifth birthday, I’ll send you to elentary school. During that ti, on weekends and holidays, you go to the old house, following great-grandpa and grandpa’s plan to study with Teacher Ryan and others. No objections, right?"
Tangyuan and Guoguo look at Bun, Bun glances at his siblings and ets Kang Li’s gaze, his small, delicate face tightens: "After our fifth birthday, can we go straight to higher grades?"
"Luo Mingting, looks like you’re siding against !"
Kang Li feigns seriousness, narrowing her pretty eyes: "The wind’s too strong, I couldn’t hear your words clearly. Repeat them." Though she already made concessions, the little rascal suggests going straight to higher grades, do they really want to reach for the sky?
"Before returning ho for sumr, my eldest brother, second brother, sister, and Xiao En brother taught us all of the first and second grade textbooks!"
As Bun says this, Tangyuan and Guoguo nod cooperatively, Tangyuan adds in a small voice: "My brothers brought textbooks to teach us!"
