CHAPTER 109: CHAPTER 109: ENROLLING IN SUMMER TRAINING CLASSES

When she returned to Nanyu, it was almost dark.

Seeing her return, Lin Yi couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, muttering, "Where did you run off to again? So late? And bought stuff? What is it?"

"Some pastries, all delicious. Dad, let’s have a proper celebration tonight."

As she spoke, Lin Qin whispered in Lin Yi’s ear about buying the store.

Lin Yi’s eyes widened in surprise, he gasped and murmured, "How can you dare to do such a big thing without telling me? What if you get scammed, without having Wenjun go with you to check it out?"

Lin Qin sheepishly stuck out her tongue, "Dad! I’ve arranged the transaction at the Land Bureau, all the certificates are complete, what are you worried about?"

Lin Yi was left speechless, raising his eyebrows and asked, "How much did you spend?"

"Eleven thousand." Lin Qin reported honestly.

Lin Yi was instantly intrigued, thought for a moment, and gritted his teeth, "Girl, help Dad keep an eye out too."

Lin Qin was confused, "You want to buy too?"

Lin Yi rolled his eyes, "Isn’t that obvious? Like you said, keeping money around won’t grow it, but it’s different when it’s turned into property. I’m thinking of saving more while I’m still alive, so you and your sister can split it later.

Before I worried a lot about you, but now it seems you don’t need to worry. It’s your sister who might need it... if she had a house or store in the city, she’d have more confidence at her in-laws’, could do whatever she wants, and even have Ah Jian and Ah Kang come to the city to study."

Such things Lin Yi once didn’t dare even think about, but with money, his ideas changed naturally.

Since he has the ability, he naturally wants to share more burdens for his two daughters.

Lin Qin agreed deeply, "Dad! I found that you’re more open-minded than many people in the village, they all think about leaving family assets to sons, but you’re thinking about your daughters!"

Lin Yi was speechless, he’s not really an open-minded person, just heartbroken by Lin Zhi’s family, doesn’t dare to expect anything from the two nephews.

Plus, Chen Wenjun promised to take care of his old age, he’s at ease, and naturally he leans towards his daughter.

The father and daughter chatted for a while, Lin Qin walked out of the kitchen, saw the two children sitting at a table in the yard doing homework, and then joined them, "Summer vacation is coming soon, what are you two planning?"

The two children seriously doing homework looked up at Lin Qin blankly.

"Mom, what plans can we make?" Yaya was very puzzled.

Ping’an was thoughtful, "I can go with Yaya to catch snails, go fishing, help mom and dad, and also do homework."

Lin Qin nodded with satisfaction, "Well said, that’s a plan, Yaya, you should learn from Ping’an, have a plan for doing things."

Then she laughed, "But mom doesn’t need you to help earn money, you’re still young, studying is the most important thing, while you’re young, you can learn more skills, so you can stand firm in society in the future.

Mom went to your school today, saw a summer training class enrollment at the school gate, do you want to sign up for some arts training?"

The two children looked at each other, seeing the confusion in each other’s eyes.

"Mom, what is arts?" Yaya asked puzzled.

Lin Qin patiently explained to them, "Arts are skills, like Master Zhang who builds our house, he can build houses and rely on this skill to earn money. You learn a skill, and in the future you can also rely on your arts to make money, not fearing hard days.

There are many arts, like music, chess, painting, etc., mom plans to send you to learn calligraphy, and another specialty, how about it?"

The two children nodded in obedient ignorance, "We’ll listen to mom."

Lin Qin was satisfied.

Lin Yi in the kitchen heard the full conversation of the mother and children, secretly approached Lin Qin to inquire, "Do you think learning those are expensive?"

Lin Qin shook her head, "It’s not too bad, depends on what you learn, like the calligraphy class is only eight cents per lesson, a bit more expensive is one dollar, and when learning better, a lesson is only one dollar and fifty, not expensive.

The more expensive ones are musical instruments, but we’re not learning those expensive ones."

Lin Yi took a deep breath, looking at Lin Qin as if she’s a spendthrift, "That’s not expensive? Eight cents per lesson, how many lessons a day?"

Lin Qin paused, then laughed heartily, "Dad! What do you mean by how many lessons a day? One lesson a day already a lot, calligraphy class is three times a week, other courses the same, and only summer classes, the teachers are also watching how the summer classes are going, if the classes go well, there’ll be weekend training classes after school starts.

Then it’s one lesson a week, thinking like this, expensive?"

Lin Yi was left speechless.

When Chen Wenjun returned in the evening, Lin Qin took out the four property rights certificates to show him, and casually mentioned signing the kids up for training classes.

Chen Wenjun seemed particularly attentive, after inquiring about all the courses, he pondered, "Both kids need to attend calligraphy classes, and stick to it. Besides, sign Ping’an up for an art class, with hands like his, other musical instruments are not possible.

Yaya can learn an instrument and also dance, girls learning dance cultivate a good temperament, and can also exercise, an instrument like the piano is good."

Lin Qin hearing this had veins on her forehead pulsing, "You really dare to spend money, dance enlightenment class one lesson one dollar, later a lesson probably about two dollars, and piano is even more expensive, enlightenment class one lesson two dollars, as learning goes deeper, one lesson five to ten dollars, you really willing to spend this money?"

Chen Wenjun rarely looked at Lin Qin seriously, "The kids now carry my surname, and are in my household registration, they’re my daughters, even if spending a lot of money to cultivate them I’m still willing!"

Lin Qin saw him so excited, hurriedly appeased him, "I’m just saying, since you don’t object, tomorrow I’ll go to Teacher Bai to confirm the spots."

The two kids have one more week to study and then the vacation begins, just right to start classes continuously.

Lin Qin settled the kids’ training class matters before telling Lin Yi.

Lin Yi learned that besides calligraphy class, Ping’an will attend art class, Yaya will attend dance class and piano class, he instantly flared up, chased Lin Qin complaining for half a day, even poured his heart out to Huang Yuezhen.

"This family really can’t let this stubborn girl manage, she’ll ruin it sooner or later!"

Huang Yuezhen chuckled, her eyes full of envy, "Uncle, I think cousin is doing great like this, the family’s money in the end is for the kids, spending on them, cultivating them well, isn’t it better once they’re successful in the future?"

In the city for the past half year, she learned a lot, and no longer the ignorant village woman she once was. Now she knows Lin Qin is buying assets for the kids, spending money to cultivate them, she’s also moved.

Unfortunately, her three kids are all grown, obviously too late to cultivate now, the only thing she can do is try to save money, so the kids won’t have to live so hard in the future.
