When Shen Nuannuan was two and a half years old, Yu Yaoyao conspired with Shen Rui to send her to the nursery. Little Sweetheart could already communicate a little. Should there be anything, she can ask the teacher or talk to her classmates directly. Moreover, she could now go to the toilet by herself, and she knew how to pull up her skirt gracefully after going to the toilet. She even played well with her brotherâs toys. Basically, she would have absolutely no problem going to the nursery.
âI donât know if your father will agree,â Yaoyao sighed. she felt concern spring from inside her soul.
âHmm, daddy most probably wonât agree,â Shen Rui also sighed. âHowever, if sister Nuannuan doesnât leave the house, daddy will ruin her.â
The mother and son looked at each other and sighed at the same time.
But soon, Yu Yaoyao waved her fist. âBaby Rui, letâs go and submit the application to your father! Letâs convince him together!â
So, the mother and son held hands and went to the living room together.
Before going downstairs, Yu Yaoyao saw with her sharp eyes that Shen Yichong was holding their daughter, Shen Nuannuan, and refused to let go. He was holding the document in his left hand, while holding the daughter in his right arm.
âDaddy, fruit.â
Shen Yichong threw the document in his left hand and picked up a small banana with a toothpick in his right hand and stuffed it into his daughterâs mouth.
âDaddy, pretty.â
Shen Yichong threw the toothpick again and stuffed a Barbie doll into his daughterâs hand.
When Yu Yaoyao saw it, she massaged her temples. Shen Rui also made a sour face. Shen Yichong held on to his daughter when he was home, and no one could make him let go. He had been told many times that the child had to walk and crawl by herself to slowly become independent, but he never listened. Their baby girl was served so well, and she didnât have to worry about anything.
Baby Nuannuan never even ate a whole banana herself. Yu Yaoyao simply suspected that Shen Nuannuan would never know bananas had skins before she started going to school. She might only know the sliced ones. Shen Yichong was so fond of his daughter that even Yu Yaoyao wanted to stop it.
âDarling, Iâve asked Chen Lin Lin to choose a few reliable nurseries. The teachers are all good, and there are plenty of entertainment programs for children,â she began. âI want Little Nuan to go.â
As soon as Yu Yaoyao came, she snatched Nuannuan from Shen Yichongâs arms. She shoved Little Sweetheart Shen Ruiâs side. Shen Rui hurriedly took his little sister to play on the childrenâs small slide on the ground. While he took care of his sister, he looked at Shen Yichong with fear.
His daddy⦠he was really scary. Last time, he even saw that his father tried to go on the childrenâs slide and slide down with Nuannuanâ¦
âNursery?â he asked. Shen Yichong glanced at the little girl who was smiling happily on the indoor mini slide and frowned immediately. âI wonât have any important projects in the next six months, and I will be spending a lot of time at home.â
In simpler words, he meant that she didnât have to go, since he can take care of the child.
âDarling,â Yu Yaoyaoâs mouth twitched, âbut all the other children in the nursery can be friends with Xiao Nuan, and she will know many friends of the same age,â she said. âEven if you and I are both at home, we canât replace her friends. When she grows up, she will have to rely on her friends when she steps out the door, right?â
Shen Yichong raised his eyes. âA year or so wouldnât make a difference. It wonât be too late for her to go to kindergarten at the age of three.â
Yu Yaoyao immediately looked at Little Bun with a look of defeat.
âDaddy, my sister prefers to play with her peers.â Shen Rui raised his head and firmly supported Yu Yaoyao. âMoreover, she has to get used to group circles from the age of two and a half. Otherwise, when she suddenly has to go to kindergarten at the age of three, she will not be able to adapt and cry. What should we do then?â
Shen Yichong frowned when he heard that Little Sweetheart would cry.
âIf she doesnât want to go at the age of three, then we can do it later,â he said. âShe can get used to it slowly. If she doesnât feel comfortable, she can take her time off at home.â
Little Bun, who was forced to go to kindergarten every day in the past, ââ¦â
In the end, Yu Yaoyao used a new hairstyle â the little princess hairstyle on Shen Nuannuan. If she were to go to the nursery to see other children, she could wear beautiful clothes, and have this nice hairstyle every day. Shen Nuannuan was tempted by this bargaining chip and immediately abandoned her father.
âGo to nursery, have friends, beautiful!â Shen Nuannuan babbled, asking her father for approval that night.
Shen Yichong had the intention to stay home to accompany his daughter, but he couldnât stand his little girlâs eager gaze. Her big, bright eyes were full of longing. They looked like they were filled with little stars, and he couldnât even say the words of rejection when she blinked.
In the end, Shen Nuannuanâs decision to go to the nursery was settled. It took Shen Yichong a week to select a nursery. He got Chen Lin to make a detailed analysis report on all the nursery schools in the city and obtain the list of children from several classes. Finally, they selected one.
Yu Yaoyao and Shen Rui finally breathed a sigh of relief. For Yu Yaoyao, who grew up in the wild, she knew the importance of Little Sweetheart having the ability to take care of herself and survive independently. Originally, she was also very fond of Little Sweetheart, but seeing how she was always hiding in her fatherâs arms at the age of two or three made her deeply worried.
