Chapter 337: Chapter 337: One Week’s Living Expenses Chapter 337: Chapter 337: One Week’s Living Expenses All the children were from the neighborhood, with a scattered few adults coming to pick them up, but mostly the kids walked ho together in groups.
Da Bao wanted to go to the guesthouse to find his mom, but rembering that his mom had said she would co to pick him up in the morning, he didn’t go to the guesthouse after school; instead, he waited at the school gate for his mom, Yun Xiaoxiao, to arrive.
“Brother, brother…”
As Da Bao kept an eye on the people outside the school entrance, anticipating his mom’s arrival, he heard his younger brother’s voice.
“Co, sit on the horizontal bar.”
“Mom, I’ll sit at the back.”
Da Bao and Xiao Bao switched places, and Yun Xiaoxiao led the two brothers toward ho.
“We’ve moved houses, you need to rember the way. If I’m too busy and can’t pick you up after school, you can walk ho by yourself or with your classmates from nearby.”
Moved houses?
Didn’t they live in the guesthouse before?
Rented a place?
“Here we are, be careful getting off…”
The two brothers pushed the door open and entered, seeing that the yard was a bit run-down, but thinking about its spaciousness, it still felt good.
“Dad, Dad…”
Zhao Tianlei was starting the fire to cook when he heard his sons coming back. He poked his head out from the kitchen, “Go check out your room…”
Their room?
“This way…” After parking the bicycle, Yun Xiaoxiao led the two brothers into their room.
“Do you like it?”
There was a wardrobe, beds, a desk; apart from being a bit shabbier than their previous ho, not much else had changed.
“Yeah, I really like it.”
“Mom, it must cost quite a bit, right?”
Even though Dad had earned quite a bit of money last year, now the whole family was studying, they needed to save.
“Mom, this is what was left over from lunch today.”
Left over?
“How much does one al cost for lunch, and how is the food?” Maybe she should go to the school at lunchti to see how the food is?
If the als aren’t satisfactory, they could co back ho to eat.
It would just be a bit troubleso for her.
“Rice is 10 cents, vegetables 20 cents, altogether 30 cents.”
Thinking about that amount of money.
An egg at ho costs only five cents, and his lunch costs as much as six eggs.
“How does it taste?”
Should she cook sothing special?
“It’s okay.”
Six days a week, yes, now they attend school six days a week.
“Then I’ll give you one yuan, that’ll be your weekly allowance.”
“Okay.” Da Bao was not the kind of kid who wasted money.
Even though Yun Xiaoxiao had bought quite a few things, there were still many items needed, which would have to be purchased gradually.
It was still warm, so the family of four squeezed together on the sa bed, but it was a kang, and quite wide, not too cramped for a family of four.
Zhao Tianlei had gone to buy groceries early in the morning and had also brought back breakfast for them.
After breakfast, Zhao Tianlei also rode the bicycle with the three of them perched on it, Da Bao sitting on the front horizontal bar and Yun Xiaoxiao at the back holding Xiao Bao.
After getting off the bicycle, Da Bao said goodbye and entered the school with his backpack on.
Xiao Bao did as well.
But this ti Yun Xiaoxiao also got off the bicycle, “You go ahead to school. I’ll ask the teacher about Xiao Bao’s situation.”
“That’s fine.”
Zhao Tianlei didn’t know how much longer he would need to ride to the school, but he wanted to check it out today.
After sending Zhao Tianlei off, Yun Xiaoxiao went to find Xiao Bao’s teacher to inquire about his situation.
“Teacher, what do you usually eat for lunch? I’m just asking… A mother’s concern for her child surpasses all, it’s his first ti at school, and I, as a mother, am still a bit worried about whether he will cry looking for his mother, or whether he might have so small conflicts with other children…”
