Chapter 122: Chapter 122: Aging Especially Fast

Yu Yong and Yu Jie were twins, only a month younger than Yu Kai.

At lunchtime, Xu Shuhua brought up the matter and asked Yu He and Wang Meihua for their opinion. No matter what, they were the parents, after all. If they were going to send their sons to school, they had to ask the parents first.

Previously, Yu He and Wang Meihua had been thinking that since Yu Kai wasn’t starting school this year, they might as well wait until next year and let all three boys go together. But after hearing Xu Shuhua’s suggestion, they simply agreed.

Wang Meihua laughed and said, “They’re just mischievous at home anyway. If they all go to school, our ears can finally get some peace and quiet.”

And so, out of the Yu family’s six grandchildren, four were arranged to go to school.

The fourth child, Yu Shuai, was only four years old this year, and the fifth, Yu Gang, was just two—no matter how much they wanted to send them, the school wouldn’t take them.

There was no kindergarten in Sanliqiao. Kids just played at home until they were old enough, then went straight to the preschool class.

The adults didn’t avoid talking about these things in front of the children.

When Yu Kai heard that Yu Yong and Yu Jie would be going to school with him, the sadness and disappointment he’d felt before seemed to fade away quite a bit.

Yu Kai couldn’t quite understand this feeling. He tilted his head and leaned over to Yu Wei, “Big Brother, I don’t know why, but when I heard those two were going to school too, I suddenly didn’t feel so bad. Why do you think that is?”

Yu Wei glanced at Yu Kai with a complicated expression.

As expected of his own little brother—even their thoughts were the same!

Yu Nuannuan was nestled in Chen Qiaoqin’s arms, listening to all of this.

Looking at her eldest, second, third, and fourth brothers, Yu Nuannuan truly felt sorry for them.

Their carefree days were about to end. From now on, the four of them would be adrift in the sea of knowledge, staring at the endless horizon, never able to reach the shore.

What should she do? She suddenly wanted to laugh!

Maybe it was because babies can’t really control their facial expressions, but as soon as Yu Nuannuan thought about laughing, she really did start to laugh.

It was a crisp, clear laugh that caught everyone’s attention.

Xu Shuhua looked at Yu Nuannuan lovingly. “As soon as Nuanbao hears about going to school, she laughs. Do you want to go to school too? Don’t worry, Nuanbao. When you’re older, Grandma will send you right away!”

Yu Nuannuan: !!! No! I don’t want to go! Grandma, listen to me!

But Xu Shuhua didn’t catch Yu Nuannuan’s look. She was already turning to the four brothers. “Wei, when you all go to school, you’re the oldest. You have to take care of your three younger brothers and don’t let anyone bully them!”

Yu Wei puffed out his little chest. “Don’t worry, Grandma! I won’t let anyone bully my brothers!”

While the Yu family was having lunch, Gu Jianguo was leading Qin Yuelan in cleaning their house.

That morning, they’d gone to see the village chief. After explaining their situation, the chief lent them two rooms at the foot of the mountain at the end of the village.

The house had belonged to an elderly man who lived alone. He’d passed away a few years ago, and the house had been empty ever since.

A house, when someone lives in it, always seems to stay the same.

But once it’s left empty, it ages especially fast.

This house had been unoccupied for years and was now in terrible shape.

The little yard, fenced in by a rickety fence, was overgrown with weeds waist-high, and the roof was covered in wild grass.

If they wanted to live there, they’d have to give it a good cleaning.
