Zheng Ziyun stayed at home for a week, then went to Cao Yue's house for a few days, and then returned to Xiangjiang with satisfaction. If Cao Shanshan didn't need someone to pick her up every day, she would have wanted to stay in the capital for a few more days.
However, this time Zheng Ziyun came to the capital and did something that made Sun Dahai very satisfied. She persuaded Jiang Xiuping to go to Xiangjiang to live for a while after taking care of the children.
Anyway, Jiang Xiuping has many companies registered in Xiangjiang under her name, so it will be very easy to apply for a customs entry work visa and even apply for permanent residence in Xiangjiang.
Speaking of taking care of children, Xiao Qianhui, including Cao Yue's upcoming child, will grow up in the capital. Sun Weihong and Qian Shaobai will definitely not be able to take care of their children since one will have to go to work and the other will continue to study in the United States.
The same goes for Cao Yue. She will definitely not be a stay-at-home mother. Fang Lin and Fang Datong both work, so they will definitely not be able to take care of their children.
So, from now on, Jiang Xiuping will be tied to two children for two years, but when the children can go to daycare in two years, she can relax.
There is a nursery class in Yingcai Kindergarten, which started working in September last year. This nursery class is not open to the public and is only responsible for the children of employees of the Sun family's companies.
Because the Sun family's businesses have not been established very long and their employees are relatively young, there are currently only five school-age children in the nursery. Therefore, the nursery originally planned is now the size of a nursery class.
The nursery class is free, and in principle, children aged one and a half to three years old are admitted. After they turn three, they can seamlessly connect with Yingcai Kindergarten.
The children of Xiao Qianhui and Cao Yue will definitely follow this path in the future. They will go to nursery class, then kindergarten, elementary school... and continue all the way.
In other words, Jiang Xiuping still needs to work hard for her children for two years. After 1989, she will be free and can go to Xiangjiang if she wants.
Sun Dahai calculated that it was just right that when he graduated from junior high school in 1989, he would be able to leave his status as a student and go to Xiangjiang with his grandma.
…
Time flies, and it’s mid-July in a blink of an eye.
On the southbound train, Sun Dahai was watching the scenery passing by outside the window. As the train continued to make a monotonous and repetitive sound, he became a little drowsy.
It's the annual summer vacation again. The destination for this year's summer vacation has been decided half a month ago. We are going to Xiangjiang to play, and we will be responsible for sending Cao Yue there by the way.
Cao Yue originally agreed to end her work in June and go to Xiangjiang to wait for her childbirth. But the aunt had a project to follow up on, and the other party kept procrastinating, which finally made Cao Yue angry.
Cao Yue spent an extra month to replace the original researchers and reorganize the research team. In this way, she was satisfied, but the time was delayed.
It turned out that her family planned to let her go to Xiangjiang before mid-June. She would be almost 30 weeks pregnant at that time, so it was considered safe to fly. But after this delay, she was already over 34 weeks pregnant when she was done. No one dared to let her go at this time.
She took a plane.
So, Sun Dahai, who was thinking about where to take his younger siblings to play, received the task assigned by his family and accompanied Aunt Xiaoyue by train to Yangcheng. After resting for a while in Yangcheng, he went to Xiangjiang from there.
There were a total of eight people traveling south on this trip. In addition to the three brothers and sisters Sun Dahai and Hu Cheng, there were also Cao Yue, doula Xin Dina, Zhang Yujie and Liang Jingjing.
Last year, Zhang Guozheng and Liang Yingying went to Xiangjiang to study preparatory courses. When school starts again this year, they will be undergraduates. Because their English and Cantonese skills are not very good, they did not return to the capital during the winter vacation, but stayed in Xiangjiang to practice hard.
language.
They still didn't plan to go back this summer vacation. It happened that Zhang Yujie and Liang Jingjing heard that Sun Dahai was going to Xiangjiang, so they went with them to visit their brother and sister.
Fang Lin is very busy at work. He is currently conducting project research in Daqingshan. After that, he will fly directly to Xiangjiang, so he will not waste time by taking the train with Cao Yue.
There are exactly two soft sleeper boxes for eight people. It is lunch break now, the second child is taking a nap, and Sun Dahai is accompanying them in the box.
The place next door was extremely lively. Sun Dahai could hear Cao Yue shouting through the wooden board of the carriage. They were playing cards over there.
Cao Yue, an elderly pregnant woman, didn't know where she got so much energy. She was constantly moving every day and rarely had time to relax. Xin Dina, who was chasing after her all day long to take care of her, felt so tired.
Forget about it.
After traveling for almost two days and two nights, the train finally arrived at its destination, Yangcheng Railway Station. Ah Fu from No. 9 Hot Pot Restaurant was already waiting on the platform, and there was a minibus behind him.
When he decided to take the train and transfer in Yangcheng, Sun Dahai remembered something. The Yangcheng Railway Station in the 1980s and 1990s was a very scary place.
It was too dangerous for him to come here with his children and Cao Yue, who was pregnant. Fortunately, there was a branch of No. 9 Hot Pot Restaurant here. Ah Fu wrote a note to the government department, and the vehicle could go directly to the station to pick them up.
Sun Dahai was relieved.
July in Yangcheng is the hottest time of the year. Thanks to the air-conditioning provided by Ah Fu in Zhongbali, the new arrivals from the north would not be able to bear it.
There is nothing you can do about the heat, and Sun Dahai also encourages everyone to adapt as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will only get hotter when they arrive in Xiangjiang, so how can they go out to play?
It was already evening when the train arrived in Yangcheng. A minibus took Sun Dahai and his party to the White Swan Hotel, where Ah Fu had already booked a room for them.
The White Swan Hotel was built as a joint venture between the Xiangjiang Huo Family and the Guangdong Provincial Government. It opened in 1983. Sun Dahai deliberately wanted to stay here and also wanted to conduct an on-site inspection of the software and hardware levels of this earliest five-star hotel in China.
The White Swan Hotel is located on the edge of the Pearl River. Due to the cofferdam construction, the hotel is actually built on the river. Because it is located on the waterway, and care must be taken not to damage the sand surface landscape, the height limit of the hotel does not exceed 100 meters.
According to the requirements of the provincial government, the White Swan Hotel was built according to the standard of 1,000 rooms. Therefore, in the end, the only issue was the floor height. The actual height of the room was 2.6 meters, which was criticized by many guests.
After everyone put away their luggage and freshened up, they met in the lobby. When you come to Yangcheng, how can you not go to the food stalls on the edge of the Pearl River for a big meal?
In fact, it is still a bit early now. For people in Yangcheng, ten o'clock is considered early to eat at the night market food stalls. Many people even start eating after twelve o'clock, making it really a night market.
However, Sun Dahai and his party are all from the north, and are not used to the living habits of Yangcheng where the biological clock is off by a few hours.
Now everyone is hungry. They have already been a little tired of eating several meals in the dining car, and they are all looking forward to coming to Yangcheng, the city of gourmet food, to have a feast.
