My courtyard shelter

In a blink of an eye, the summer vacation was over.

Despite being reluctant, Ma Lingling and her brother finally left.

Xu's father bought his granddaughter a Xiawei brand mobile phone. Although it was also second-hand, it was much better than the one that Ma Jie had discarded.

Apart from other things, at least the battery was new and did not need to be charged every few hours.

In addition, Xu's mother also packed a lot of good things, including five air-dried chickens, a large bag of snacks, and several boxes of yogurt, filling up the two suitcases.

In the morning, Xu Dong personally drove the two to the high-speed rail station. He did not rush to work until he received a call from his niece to confirm that the two had boarded the train.

…

The next day, September 1, was the first day of school again.

Xu Dong did not have time, so Yang Lina took the two daughters to report.

"Mom... I want to change a new schoolbag."

Before leaving, Lele was in trouble again.

Yang Lina said with a straight face: "Why do you need a new schoolbag? Do you see any shops selling schoolbags on the street? Where can I buy one for you?"

"No, I want it!"

"I think you are itching for trouble, right?"

Yang Lina glared, pulled her sleeves, and showed a posture of wanting to fight.

Since moving to Yanjing, the little daughter has been spoiled by her family and has become more and more troublesome. She thinks that with her father's support, she can do whatever she wants at home.

Yang Lina doesn't mind teaching her a profound lesson.

Lele is a little kid. When she saw that her mother's face was not right, and her father was not at home, she immediately became timid and obediently carried her old schoolbag and followed her out.

The mother and daughter walked to the school. Although they came early, there were already many parents on the campus.

After all, the temperature will soar in another hour, and there are many people on the campus. No one wants to suffer.

"Keke's mom, you're here, why didn't you see Keke's dad?"

The visitor was the mom of the twins' classmate Dayuan. The two had met at the parent-teacher conference and often communicated in the class group.

"Her dad still has to go to work. Recently, a leader from the power company came to inspect, so he couldn't take a leave." Yang Lina explained.

Dayuan's mom sighed: "My husband is the same. He always works overtime recently and can't even rest on weekends."

"Busy, all busy!" Yang Lina echoed.

"Let's not talk about this! Keke's mom, have you heard that all schools across the country are going to change their schedules."

"Uh, why change?" Yang Lina really hadn't heard of this information, so she couldn't help but ask curiously.

Dayuan's mother explained: "It's the high temperature. As you know, many schools in China don't have air conditioning, and many students have suffered from heat stroke.

There is no way. Now we can only modify the schedule and try to extend the lunch break to avoid the high temperature period."

"What time will school and school be over in the future?"

Yang Lina and Xu's mother don't need to work, so they can pick up and drop off their children at any time, so they don't care much.

"In the morning, it's 7:30 to 10:30, and in the afternoon, it's 3:30 to 6:30, with a five-hour break in between."

"What if parents don't have time to pick up and drop off at noon?" Yang Lina asked in confusion.

"I heard that you can also stay in school and rest in the air-conditioned lounge by the school."

"This is a good thing!" Yang Lina thinks this arrangement is very humane.

"That's right!" Dayuan's mother nodded, "My child's father and I can't come back at noon, so this is a big problem solved."

The two mothers chatted and soon completed the second-grade student registration and payment together. Adding up all the fees, Yang Lina only paid more than 1,000 yuan in total.

The reason why it is so cheap is that the twins do not need to pay for accommodation and food separately, and the student milk was cancelled last semester due to insufficient conditions.

After deducting these three items, the remaining expenses are mainly insurance, teaching aids and school uniforms, which are not much in total.

After the registration is over and the textbooks are collected, Yang Lina returns with the twins. The school will not start formal classes until next Monday.

"Grandma, we are back. I am so thirsty. I want to drink lotus seed soup."

As soon as she entered the yard, Lele couldn't wait to shout loudly.

Xu Ma was taking care of the triplets. When she heard the voice, she smiled and replied, "The lotus seed soup is stewed in the pressure cooker. Let your mother scoop it for you to drink."

"Grandma, I want to drink ice." Lele ran over and acted like a spoiled child.

"What ice drink? I forgot about the diarrhea last time. Listen to grandma and drink less ice when you have nothing to do." Xu Ma took the opportunity to educate her.

Lele pulled Dabao's face unhappily. She didn't dare to touch Erbao and Xiaobao. She would cry if she touched them.

"Knot...Knot..."

Dabao thought her sister was playing with her again, so she moved her hands and feet excitedly and laughed very happily.

Mother Xu slapped her granddaughter's naughty hands and scolded her softly: "Don't pinch his cheeks, your brother is still young, and he will drool if you pinch his cheeks too much."

"Awoo...Awoo..."

Lele made a face at Dabao and ran away, making Dabao laugh.

Yang Lina just came into the room with two bowls of lotus seed soup. Seeing her little daughter coming towards her, she handed her a bowl and told her:

"I've added more sugar to you, drink slowly, don't burn yourself!"

"Really? Mom, you're so nice!" Lele said happily.

Yang Lina laughed and scolded: "When you come across something delicious, you don't care about anything. You were obviously angry with me this morning!"

Keke was much more sensible. While drinking lotus seed soup, she also helped grandma look after Xiaobao. Xu's mother was somewhat overwhelmed by taking care of the triplets alone.

In the evening, Xu Dong came back from get off work. In addition to bringing back two chickens, he also carefully selected school gifts for Keke and his sister to make up for his regret of not being able to take leave.

"Dad, what's in the box? Can I open it and take a look?" Lele asked with his head tilted.

Xu Dong shook his head: "No, this is a blind box. Whatever you choose is what you get. You can't peek or regret it."

"Sister, you choose first!" As an older sister, Keke knows what humility is.

Lele hesitated for a long time before choosing the box on the left because it was bigger than the one on the right.

The little guy was about to open the box and take a look, but was stopped by Xu Dong:

"You can't look at it now. Keep it with me first. You can open it after you two go to bed."

It may be the first time to encounter such a strange request. The twins not only did not feel lost, but were full of curiosity. They even ate much faster than usual.

After brushing their teeth, taking a bath, and telling bedtime stories, the twins were not sleepy at all.

Xu Dong finally returned the two boxes to their respective owners, then greased his feet and quickly slipped away.

"Sister, let's look at yours first!" Lele asked.

Keke nodded and slowly opened the box. There was a violin lying inside. The violin was relatively small, with a body of only 30 cm, which was very suitable for children.

Keke tried to pluck the strings, and the sound was very crisp. She liked this gift at once.

Lele also had envy in her eyes. The next second, she couldn't wait to open her own gift box.
