Chapter 314: First Day of School

People online also say she's a well‑behaved baby, but having never actually seen or spent time with her, the teacher simply can't believe it!

The fact is, she really is both obedient and cute!

The teacher looks at the specially dressed, adorably cute Su Yu and feels her heart melt!

Su Yu turns back, waves to her family, takes the teacher's hand, slings a custom‑made little backpack on her back, and begins her journey as an elementary student!

Ding—ling—ling!

When the class bell rings, the students of Grade 4, Class 1 can't study calmly as they used to.

They exchange glances, and after scanning the surroundings, their eyes always drift back to the front rows.

A tiny "radish‑head" suddenly appears at the very front of their class! It's exceptionally small, clearly not the same age as they are.

Even more special, this tiny radish‑head was brought in personally by the teacher!

Is she going to attend class with them? Or is she a teacher's or Principal's child, just a auditor?

The fourth‑grade kids already understand a lot. They know that a teacher's child, the Principal's child, and children of high‑ranking officials are different!

On one hand they're curious about the new classmate; on the other, while they try to reap the newcomer's benefits, they also feel some guard and resistance!

The first period is the homeroom teacher's lesson.

She solemnly introduced Su Yu, Tang Can, and Liang Yan.

"You're all older than those three kids; you must be united and loving, look after the little sister, and set a good example as big brothers and big sisters! Can everyone do that?"

The whole class replies in unison, "Yes!"

After the homeroom lesson, the classmates who have long coveted Su Yu, like animals at a zoo, swarm around to greet her!

Su Yu is patient with each child; after greeting them, she tries to remember their names and appearances.

On the first day of school, Liang Yan and Tang Can hardly find a chance to chat with Su Yu. Their surroundings are filled with curious classmates asking all sorts of questions.

After school, Tang Can and Liang Yan finally get a chance to get close to Su Yu.

"Little sister Xiao Yu, where do you live? We could share a triple room!"

"No need, my parents don't feel comfortable leaving me, so they moved here; I go home every day!"

Su family manor is far from the school. Xu Mingyue, reluctant to have Su Yu commute back and forth, tallied her properties and found a villa not far from the school.

The villa isn't large, only a small garden of a few dozen square meters, but the interior space is ample enough for their whole family.

Xu Mingyue and her husband, Ji Yan and her husband, Su Xi and Su Yu all moved into the villa. Apart from the rooms being smaller than those in the manor, the villa has no other drawbacks.

Tang Can envies, "Ruanhuohu, do you have extra houses? I'd like Auntie to come live too!"

Auntie has already moved in, so she of course lives outside!

"I don't know, but your aunt and the others probably wouldn't agree."

Su Yu is still young. Rather than saying her commuting is a school privilege, it's more that the school fears something might happen!

Su Yu is far too young!

She doesn't even have a formal kindergarten record. The school worries Su Yu can't take care of herself and might have an accident on campus. The Principal not only wants to invest but also fears an incident involving Su Yu. Therefore, he uses this age exception deliberately to allow Su Yu to be a commuter!

Tang Can and Liang Yan are both like her and unlike her. They had previously stayed at another school and have lived at this school for a year; despite their young age, they already possess the ability to survive on their own!

Tang Can thinks seriously, "Ruanhuohu, you go ask if there's any, maybe they'll change their mind!"

In this short time, Tang Can has already figured out how to cajole Auntie and the others to move here. If they refuse, she can hire a nanny to look after her.

She does want Auntie to send her straight to Ruanhuohu's house to be raised, but just thinking shows her aunt and family wouldn't agree.

However, she could first make an excessive request, then follow with a less extreme one!

Liang Yan doesn't want the two little companions to be left out, "And me, I also want to be like little sister Xiao Yu!"

As for how to become the same, that's not a question for a child to ponder. If kids could solve everything, what would adults be for?

Anyway, her dad said, if there's a problem, ask him; she's a good child!

"Alright, I'll ask Grandma and the others!"

When Su Yu returns home after her first day of school, she doesn't talk about the day but asks Xu Mingyue about the house.

"Sweetie, do you think our house isn't big enough?"

Xu Mingyue is slightly puzzled. There's no family property nearby; if they renovate here, they might have to move farther away, which is troublesome and inconvenient. Su Yu had clearly been satisfied before; why the change after the first day?

"It's not me; it's Huo Huo and Can Can who want to live nearby. They also want to commute home like I do!"

"Okay, Grandma will look around!"

Su Yu shakes Xu Mingyue's arm, "Grandma, first ask the parents what they think, then ask the children; the kids have the right to know all this!"

Su Yu worries that although Xu Mingyue kindly makes a selection, other adults and children may not accept it. If Tang Tang and Zhu Xueheng refuse, they could later slander Grandma for not choosing—what to do? Their sisterly issues are small, but later the three families' conflicts could become big!

Tang Tang might not be able to pull off such shamelessness, but Zhu Xueheng definitely can!

"Hmm, Grandma understands! Grandma will decide, let Huo Huo and Can Can choose first; after they pick, send it to the two parents for them to decide."

"Mm‑mm, Grandma, you're so kind!"

Su Yu acts coquettishly, and Xu Mingyue is in a good mood!

"Are the school kids unfriendly? Why do they want to live outside?"

Besides the conflict, Xu Mingyue can't fathom why two well‑behaved kids who live at school would want to live outside as commuters.

Su Yu feels a bit guilty, "They want to be like me! I'm a commuter, and they also want to be commuters!"

"Oh~"

Xu Mingyue knows the three of them are clingy, and didn't expect they'd even fuss over this.

"Did any classmate bully you today?"

Xu Mingyue thinks, if anyone bullies Su Yu, she'll take care of it on the spot!

One thing is busy, another thing is busy; she doesn't mind waiting a bit to ask clearly.

"No, not at all; the classmates are all friendly to me! They even offered me food, but I didn't take any!"

"Why not?"

Su Yi was puzzled. Sometimes, when someone sincerely wants to give you something, refusing it can offend them, making the situation awkward or leaving them feeling uncomfortable. Isn't Su Yu quite like him? How come she hasn't learned this way of dealing with people and things?

Good night, darlings~
