Chapter 300 - 259: The Pig’s Trotter without Trotters
Ye Shuying had not considered sending her son to a private school, primarily to save money, as the calculations were quite clear. After all, her family paid for everything. Why not take advantage of a good deal?
She felt that since her son wanted to play, let him play for now—after all, he was only a little over three years old. He could go to her family’s home to study when he turned five or six.
Ye Shuying also felt that she and her sisters were not well educated and knew only a few characters. Except for her being a farmer, her husband could still pick up business and earn money, and they could live reasonably well.
Although she couldn’t compare to her two younger sisters, she thought, as a woman and a farmer girl, her situation was already good. She felt that her eldest brother hiring a teacher to teach the girls in the family to recognize characters was unnecessary. After all, they were just girls, and knowing more characters was just that—they were still girls.
It would be better to save that money and use it later for her son to hire a teacher or support a boy’s education.
Ye Shuying not only thought this way but also nagged about it beside her mother, whispering among themselves. At that time, her third sister had not yet married!
Unfortunately..., the days when parents ran their lives had long since passed. The eldest brother and sister-in-law, controlled by their parents, handled all the income.
Now, with the Tang Family’s support, they were able to earn money independently, no longer controlled by their parents and not heeding their advice, pampering the daughter from their home.
