The Beautiful Stepmother from the Eighties: Marrying a Factory Director to Raise Kids Chapter 486

Si Nian took a mont to glance over there and saw that everyone was studying earnestly.

Looking at the first-grade side, so children had already started having water fights.

Only a few students were seriously learning.

After the swimming training classes were over, the sumr vacation arrived as scheduled.

Jiang Jiu still hadn't figured out how to swim.

His athletic talent wasn't very good; although he had been learning for several days, he still didn't dare to swim alone.

He had heard from Second Child that he had been swimming in the river in their hotown of Xingfu Village since he was little, and Da Huang also swam there, which made him extrely envious.

These past few days, he had been running to the Zhou family's house all day long, just wanting to see if he could learn a little from Da Huang and Second Child. He also wanted to invite Second Child to go out and learn swimming together during the sumr vacation.

Seeing his son so interested in swimming, Jiang Wenqing specially signed him up for a sumr training class.

But he didn't know that Second Child was going back to his hotown this sumr.

He clamored for Second Child to accompany him.

Second Child felt that he already knew how to swim and there was no need to learn again, but he couldn't refuse his good brother, so the two children went to ask Si Nian about this matter.

Si Nian was currently figuring out what things to take back. Since they were taking the train, it was naturally better to travel light.

They had everything at ho, so they didn't need to buy too much. She mainly wanted to bring so Beijing specialties back for her family.

Hearing Second Child say he wanted to learn swimming with Jiang Jiu, she paused for a mont, then smiled and said, "That won't work. In a couple of days, when your school goes on holiday, we are heading back to our hotown."

Second Child didn't really want to leave yet. Before they went ho, he had been longing to go back, but now that they were really leaving, he felt reluctant. Because Jiang Jiu had already said he was going to learn swimming, which ant he definitely couldn't go back with them.

So he looked at Si Nian and said, "Mom, do we have to go ho imdiately when the holiday starts? Can't we stay for a few more days? I want to teach Little Jiu how to swim."

It wasn't that Si Nian didn't want to stay, but there was still Little Four at ho eagerly waiting for her to return. Moreover, she had already bought the train tickets in advance, and if she returned them now, she wouldn't be able to buy new ones.

Because it was sumr vacation, tickets were already hard to co by.

Otherwise, for such a simple request, she would definitely have agreed.

"If you want to stay, then you'll be ho alone. You can play for a few more days and stay at Grandma Xiao's house, or you can go to your Uncle Chen's place. When your dad cos back in a while, you can go back with him."

Upon hearing this, Second Child imdiately refused. He quickly reached out and hugged Si Nian's arm, "No, if Mom goes back, I'm going back too. I don't want to leave Mom."

Si Nian reached out and rubbed his head, "Alright then, take advantage of these two days and quickly take Little Jiu out to play."

Second Child hurriedly pulled Jiang Jiu away to learn swimming.

He also stated that he must teach him how to swim before he went back.

He even instructed Jiang Jiu that when he wasn't around, he absolutely must not go out to play in the water with other children.

Previously, when they were learning to swim, the teacher was worried they would go wild swimming outside after they learned, so he showed them many examples of accidents.

Second Child was terrified after watching them.

He thought to himself that he was really lucky in the past, and anyway, he would absolutely never go into the water alone in the future.

Now, naturally, he was also worried that Jiang Jiu would run off to play by himself after learning.

Anyway, without himself watching by the side, he didn't feel at ease.

Hearing that he was leaving as soon as the holiday started, Jiang Jiu felt very reluctant. While freeloading a al at the Zhou family's house, he couldn't help but ask Si Nian, "Auntie Si, can't you really stay and play for a few more days?"

Si Nian smiled and said, "Because Auntie has already bought the tickets in advance, we must go back. Otherwise, you can co with us to play at Auntie's house. Going back to our hotown to learn with Second Child is the sa."

Jiang Jiu was used to playing with Second Child, so naturally, he didn't want them to leave. Hearing this, his eyes imdiately lit up, and he nodded vigorously, "I'll go, I'll go."

He completely forgot that he had already asked his dad to sign him up for a swimming class.

When Jiang Wenqing ca over to pick him up and heard about this, he originally wanted to refuse. But thinking about how busy he was with research, his son would be alone during the sumr vacation. Usually, at ho, he played with Second Child and the other children. If they all left now, his son would be incredibly lonely.

He also thought about how his parents missed their grandson, so it would be better to let him stay in their hotown for a while. When he was free later, he could just go and pick him up.

Anyway, his research always had him running between the two places.

Si Nian was also worried he wouldn't agree, so she said, "Zhou Yuesheng might also co back in a while. If you're worried, you can just have him bring Little Jiu back along the way."

Jiang Wenqing looked helplessly at his happy son and said, "Then you're not going to learn swimming?"

"I want to, of course I want to. I'll learn with Second Brother when I go ho. Second Brother's ho doesn't charge money to learn swimming, Da Huang will teach ."

Jiang Jiu said.

"Second Brother said Da Huang teaches fast."

Jiang Wenqing: "......."

His son was over ten years old, how could he still be so foolish.

However, he was always reluctant to refuse his son's requests. His happiness was the most important thing to him.

So he nodded and said, "Alright then, I'll have to trouble Comrade Si. I'm really embarrassed to always have you help take care of my Little Jiu."

Si Nian raised an eyebrow, "Still being polite with ? Back then, when my kids were coming over to study, Jiang Jiu couldn't bear to part with them and even wanted to run away from ho to follow them. Could I just leave him behind and ignore him?"

"It's just that tickets might be hard to buy. Right now, there are probably only standing tickets left. See if you can buy one. If you can, he can go with us. I bought a sleeper ticket, so he can sleep with Second Child then."

Jiang Wenqing nodded. Hearing that tickets might be sold out, Jiang Jiu hurriedly pulled his dad to go buy a ticket.

Jiang Wenqing didn't want to seek special privileges either, so he bought a ticket at a high price from so scalpers.

Now all the children were happy.

They were happy, but Xiao Bowen wasn't happy.

Because he couldn't find an excuse, and he actually really wanted to go together too.

If you asked him why he knew the Zhou family was leaving, it was actually quite obvious.

Because these past few days, his grandma had been preparing every day, saying that Teacher Si was going ho and she needed to buy more gifts for the children to take back.

He was even the one who went with her to buy them.

Of course he knew.

Unfortunately, he wasn't like Jiang Jiu, who dared to act spoiled with Teacher Si.

Otherwise, Xiao Bowen thought, if he also wanted to go, his grandma would definitely agree too. She was very supportive of him playing with Second Child and the others.

It was just that he was too proud to ask for help and suffered in silence, simply unable to open his mouth.

Chen Haoran originally ca to freeload a al, but seeing that everyone was packing up to leave, his jaw almost dropped in shock.

"What, you're going back to your hotown? Why didn't you tell in advance?"

His dad had been clamoring to have him go learn at the company recently, and Chen Haoran was annoyed to death by it. He finally found ti to co over, only to find they were leaving.

Si Nian took a mont to glance at him and said, "It's the holidays, of course we're going back to our hotown."

Chen Haoran gasped, his tone full of sadness, "Then what am I going to do?"

After saying that, seeing Si Nian shake her head and not bother with him, he hurriedly followed after her, "You're leaving, and I won't even be able to find an excuse to slack off."

That is right, every ti his dad wanted him to do sothing, he would use the excuse that he had to go over to the Zhou family's house to help take care of the kids.

Since his mom was on such good terms with Si Nian now, and had previously told him not to run around when he was free but instead go help watch the kids, his dad had taken note of it.

He did not know when it started, but his dad had beco especially afraid of his mom.

In the past, they used to argue, and his dad would stand his ground with a straight back.

Now, however, he was unilaterally crushed by his mom. No matter the issue, his dad was always the first to bow down and apologize.

Anyway, she was not to be provoked; at the re ntion of her, he would not dare utter a word.

This gave Chen Haoran an opportunity to slack off.

He never wanted to follow his dad into business in the first place, so naturally, he planned to run off to the Zhou house as soon as the holidays started.

Hearing that Master Zhou had returned to his hotown for business, he no longer had to worry about being called out for training the mont he arrived.

What a rare and leisurely ti.

But in the end, it was stripped away just like that.

No way, he could not stay here all alone and miserable.

He said seriously, "How about I go with you guys?"

Si Nian finally stopped what she was doing and gave him an odd look. "Do you still think you are a child? I don't have ti to look after you."

It made sense for Jiang Jiu to go along, because his hotown was there and his grandparents were around, so it was reassuring.

But why would a big guy like Chen Haoran tag along?

Chen Haoran imdiately stiffened his neck and argued, "Who needs you to look after ? I can work too, okay? Let go with you, I would be perfectly happy to just tag along and enjoy the good food."

Si Nian rolled her eyes at him. "I cannot make that decision. Ask your master."

Bringing a guy her own age back ho would probably scare her family to death.

Si Nian did not want to cause trouble for herself either.

She knew that once Zhou Yueshen was brought up, Chen Haoran would definitely back down. After all, when he was learning boxing from Zhou Yueshen a couple of years ago, his legs would tremble just at the sight of the man.

After that, the number of tis he visited her house visibly decreased.

Who knew that that very afternoon, Chen Haoran would show up carrying a suitcase and grinning from ear to ear.

"Sister, my master agreed, and my parents agreed to let go too. I have even bought my ticket. Tomorrow morning, I will be on the sa bus as you guys."

Si Nian: "?"

"Your master agreed?"

Chen Haoran could not stop smiling, his eyes shining with a clear yet foolish light.
