The Reborn Aristocrat's Daughter-Chapter 853 - 813: The Extras Are All for the Sake of the Child

And this time Situ Xin sent them to study because she was worried that if they continued like this, they would become disengaged from society.

"Old Madam, Baby is right. We shouldn’t restrain these three little ones by our side because of various fears and worries. They should interact more with peers their age. Aye, it so happens that these three little darlings are going to school, which gives me a good opportunity to visit the old courtyard and catch up with those old folks. It’s been a long time since I’ve mingled with them."

And just like that, as soon as Situ Xin and Xiao Muli had set off for school with the three children, the elders at home also got into the car and headed to the old courtyard. For the first time, the big mansion became quiet.

The school that Situ Xin and Xiao Muli had chosen for their children was the best in Capital City. One could say that the backgrounds of the students there were extraordinary. However, these were not the considerations of Situ Xin. What she considered in sending her children to this school were its strong teaching personnel and the comprehensive facilities, which were quite impressive.

Situ Xin would not make her children settle for anything less. She wanted to give them the best of everything.

The principal of Capital Experimental Primary School and the first-grade teachers were already waiting at the school gate. When the principal received the call from the head of the Education Bureau last night, he was utterly startled. Learning about the identities of the three children enrolling in their school today, he didn’t dare to be the slightest bit negligent.

On the way, Situ Xin could feel these three little ones were more excited than usual. Shiyao Baby was holding her daddy’s hand, asking this question and then another. Xuyang Baby was blinking his very similar-looking eyes, his gaze whirling around. Even Xuyao, who usually resembles Xiao Muli the most, appeared as calm as ever, but if one looked carefully at his eyes, they would also notice the flicker of interest.

"Alright, we’re here. Come on down." Situ Xin opened the passenger door, got out, and then went to open the rear doors, allowing their three little darlings to get out one by one.

Seeing the people he had been waiting for arrive, the principal hurriedly adjusted his clothes, then walked over with a broad smile. "Excuse me, are you Xiao Xuyao, Xiao Xuyang, and Xiao Shiyao?"

"Yes, Uncle, who are you?" Xiao Shiyao, holding her mother’s hand, turned her eyes around, showing her sweet smile as she spoke.

Before the principal’s smile could widen in response to Xiao Shiyao’s words, Xiao Xuyang interrupted: "Sister, how could you forget what Mom and Dad taught us? When strangers come up to talk, we shouldn’t pay attention to them, right? If a stranger offers us candy, we need to call the police and catch the bad person."

Xiao Xuyang’s comment immediately stiffened the smile on the face of the class teacher following the principal. Her hand, which had been inside her bag, hurriedly pulled out. She was worried that if she hesitated, she might end up in the police station.

Hearing her youngest son’s words, Situ Xin couldn’t help but have black lines forming on her forehead. She, as a mother, did not remember ever having said that.

"Hehe. Such a smart little kid." The principal didn’t know how to continue the conversation and could only say this dryly.

Situ Xin was unequivocal in asserting to her family that sending the children to school was for their own good, to cultivate their sense of collectivism, among other reasons. However, when she actually took them to school and watched her own children follow the teacher to their classroom, all her worries surged to the forefront.

Regardless of how capable Situ Xin herself was, she was still a regular mother. Thus, with concern, she clutched the hem of her husband Xiao Muli’s clothes and asked, "Muli, do you think Baby and the others might get bullied by other kids? I knew I shouldn’t have told them not to use their Spiritual Power. If they really get into conflicts with others, given their small size, they are no match at all." The more she spoke, the more worried Situ Xin became.

On the contrary, Xiao Muli, who had been fretting about this and that previously, was now not worried at all after sending the kids to school. "Wife, you can relax. With those two cunning boys of ours, they won’t let themselves be bullied. Even if they don’t use Spiritual Energy, the boxing and martial arts taught by the old men at home are enough to handle others. And our Shiyao Baby, she is so cute that no one would bear to bully her. Plus, if anyone does bully our Shiyao Baby, she has her two older brothers to protect her. So, rest assured. Look, it’s been a long time since we’ve been out alone. Today is a good opportunity. Let’s go on a date."

After hearing her husband Xiao Muli’s analysis, Situ Xin felt less worried. She thought about it and agreed that her children were not helpless. "A date? You have time today?" Situ Xin knew very well that her husband Xiao Muli was very busy, especially recently with some collaboration project.

"No matter how busy I am, I always have time for my wife," said Xiao Muli. While Situ Xin wasn’t looking, he stole a kiss on the corner of her mouth and then gave a satisfied smile.

"Xiao Muli, we’re at the school gate. You can’t just do that." Situ Xin’s face wasn’t as thick-skinned as Xiao Muli’s.

"What about it? It’s just kissing my own wife, and who dares to say anything about it?" Xiao Muli said, reaching out his hand and interlocking his fingers with Situ Xin’s. It must be said that after so many years of marriage, the affection between Xiao Muli and Situ Xin hadn’t faded in the slightest; it became only more profound. In fact, Xiao Muli would cling to Situ Xin whenever he had the chance. Sometimes, he’d even get jealous of his sons for taking up his wife’s time.

The two parents, Situ Xin and Xiao Muli, went on a date. Meanwhile, three five-year-old tykes, wearing backpacks specially designed by their mother, held hands and followed behind their homeroom teacher, looking like well-behaved children.

This sight allowed the constantly observant homeroom teacher to breathe a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness, these three aren’t the type spoiled by their families." However, it was clear that the teacher had sighed in relief a bit too soon.

She only saw the surface of these three children. She missed Xiao Xuyang’s round eyes, which were turning rapidly, the overly sweet smile on Xiao Shiyao’s face, and the slight upward curl at the corners of the mouth of Xiao Xuyao, who was as expressionless as a little iceberg. All this, the homeroom teacher overlooked.

The homeroom teacher brought the three little ones to the best class in Experimental Primary School. Since Situ Xin and the others had made the decision to enroll last minute, their arrival at the school was over a month later than the other children.

"Alright, students, please be quiet. We have three new friends joining our class today. Come on, let’s give them a round of applause to welcome them," said the homeroom teacher. This announcement received an enthusiastic response from the classmates. After all, the first-grade kids here were much more knowledgeable than those in ordinary schools and could even be considered little experts. But for now, they were still first-graders and listened well to the teacher. It would have been a different story with the older students who probably wouldn’t bother paying attention to her words.
