The next day, after sending the children off, Lin Feng dug out some documents from his backpack. As expected, there was a stack of contracts.
A week into the school year, the kids were all doing great and seemed to find school life quite enjoyable.
In the blink of an eye, it was Teacher's Day. As a gift, the teacher assigned two extra problems. The students were utterly baffled; they had no idea what to make of this.
Half a month into the school year, the first parent-teacher meeting was held. School was let out for the afternoon, and An Lan ran over cheerfully. "You guys go ahead," she said, "I've got this!"
This time, the seating was different from the last. Parents sat according to the students' names on the test papers. Lin Feng could sit anywhere he wanted in Class Six, as both San Bao and Si Bao were in that class.
He collected their test papers. San Bao had scored a perfect one hundred, his handwriting neat and beautiful. Ever since becoming the music class representative, San Bao had changed a lot. After all, he needed to set an example for the whole class. His handwriting was no longer as sloppy as before, and he'd scored a perfect hundred. Si Bao received a ninety-seven in Chinese and a ninety-eight in math.
The teacher took the stage, mainly discussing the issues that had arisen during this period, as well as the areas where the children had worked hard and excelled.
"The children are still young and have many small issues that need correcting."
"They're in the first grade now, which is different from kindergarten. They're little adults now and need to learn to be independent."
"This time, our parent-teacher meeting has another purpose: to teach the children about the differences between boys and girls."
"Some parents have already taught their children about this, while others have not."
"Later, I'll send a link in the group chat for parents to watch with their children!"
The meeting ended at the same time school was dismissed. The parent-teacher meeting for Zhang Yuxi's children was much the same, as the school had also assigned the children to learn about the differences between boys and girls. This was something Lin Feng had already explained to the children when he had them start sleeping in separate rooms.
Back home, An Lan was happily binge-watching dramas on the couch. The four older siblings took meticulous care of Guo Guo, who was well-behaved and sensible. The scene was warm and beautiful.
Another week passed, and the school uniforms were finally issued. Because he had so many children, Lin Feng bought two sets for each of them.
The other parents in the group chat were speechless. They had no idea that was even an option.
Lin Feng was very low-key. He rarely spoke in the group chat, and if anything came up, he would communicate with the teacher privately. All anyone knew was that he and his wife had quadruplets who were strikingly good-looking and had a refined air about them.
…
That day, the teacher sent a message to the group chat. It said that a child at the school needed help. The child's father, who worked on a construction site, had fallen from a scaffold, injuring his right leg and leaving him unable to walk. The school was organizing a fundraiser. Any amount was a gesture of goodwill, and they hoped the children and parents could show a little love.
When Lin Feng picked the children up that afternoon, the quadruplets were also discussing the matter. Da Bao, as the class president of Class Eight, and Si Bao, as the sports representative of Class Six, were both expected to lead by example.
By now, the little ones' assets must have been over 4,000,000 yuan.
Lin Feng asked the children, "How much do you plan to donate?"
The children had no real concept of money and just felt they should donate as much as possible. Each child decided to donate 5,000 yuan, and their parents would each donate another 5,000.
In Class Six, the donation from San Bao, Si Bao, Lin Feng, and his wife totaled 20,000 yuan. It was the same for Class Eight: another 20,000 yuan.
Things were different now. In the past, donating even one or two yuan was considered a contribution, but now, the minimum was at least ten yuan. Most families donated one or two hundred, while a few better-off families gave five or eight hundred. Only one or two exceptionally wealthy families donated a thousand. A donation of over 20,000 yuan from a single family, like the Lin Family's, was extremely rare.
On the stage, the teacher thanked the students present and their parents. As teachers, they also contributed what they could, with each teacher donating three hundred yuan.
In the teachers' office, the desks of the head teachers of Class Six and Class Eight were next to each other. Lin Feng had provided the money in cash. The first thing he had instructed Da Bao and Er Bao to do upon arriving at school was to hand the envelope of money to their respective teachers.
The teachers were all surprised. They had been teaching these children for some time but were only now realizing that the Lin Family's children came from a very well-off household.
Within the first-grade year group, Class Six raised the most money for the fundraiser. Suddenly, everyone knew about the Lin Family's financial situation.
After this event concluded, the school held its autumn sports day during the last few days of September. There were no classes that morning, so students could bring food, drinks, and other things.
Lin Feng prepared homemade bread for the kids and kept milk warm in a thermos. He even made them rice balls, since they weren't coming home for lunch. On top of that, he prepared some snacks and gave each of them twenty yuan in pocket money. Dressed in their blue and white uniforms, they happily entered the school with their little backpacks.
Lin Feng couldn't help but feel a bit sentimental. He still remembered accompanying them to kindergarten, laughing and joking together. There's a kind of love called letting go. Seeing the cheerful figures of his four children from behind, Lin Feng couldn't help but smile.
At this sports day, Si Bao participated in every event. Da Bao, as the class president, and Si Bao, as the sports representative, both took part in many events. Er Bao and San Bao could only cheer them on from the sidelines!
During this sports day, Si Bao, from the first-grade group, shot to fame! He won first place in every single event he participated in! Now, not just the first grade but the entire school knew of his athletic talent. Da Bao and Er Bao were not outdone in the slightest, with the two of them taking most of the second and third places! In the girls' division, Er Bao always came in first.
During the award ceremony for the first-grade group, first place was always Si Bao! The second and third places were a rotation between Da Bao and Er Bao. Just like that, the three of them became famous. People even wondered if they were triplets.
In the group chat, the teachers would post updates and videos. Seeing his little treasures competing, Lin Feng felt a surge of pride. He was especially thrilled to learn that Si Bao had fought for and won several first-place titles. No amount of money the system could reward him with could bring him as much joy as seeing his children excel.
Lin Feng sent the videos to the family group chat, to Liu Bo, and to Zhang Yuxi. In the class group chat, especially Class Six's, parents flooded it with congratulations!
"Wow, this kid is amazing, a real sports genius!"
"Incredible!"
"Wow, their athletic abilities are so strong. Is it genetics?"
Picking up the children, Lin Feng gave each of the four kids a big hug. "Are you tired from today?"
Da Bao and Si Bao excitedly showed off their trophies to Lin Feng, chattering incessantly. Under a tree on the school road, Lin Feng listened attentively, showering them with the perfect amount of flattery before laughing. "Tonight, Dad will make you all a delicious meal as a reward!"
"Yay!"
Back at home, the first thing Lin Feng did was give the children a bath. In one tub, Da Bao and Si Bao played with bubbles, while Er Bao was in the master bedroom's tub.
"Once you're done washing up, put on your clothes and come down. Dad will be in the kitchen!"
"Okay!!"
The children were in elementary school now, and the distinction between boys and girls had to be observed. Zhang Yuxi was now taking care of certain things for Er Bao and San Bao, like bathing and changing their clothes.
He could no longer casually kiss his princesses. The thought made him quite sad!
