Having woken twice in the middle of the night due to her child, Ding Yun also fed her baby the next morning and placed her in a playpen to watch educational programs for a while.
Only then did she sit at her computer desk, yawning.
She began to list her upcoming plans.
"Hmm, the child's household registration is done, but her registration is with me, and my registration is still in my hometown.
So, if she wants to go to school.
It seems she has to return to her registered place of origin to study.
Never mind, I'll check the relevant policies first!"
In Ding Yun's opinion, her child's priority was definitely higher than retaliating against the child's biological father's family. Therefore, Ding Yun naturally considered her child's future schooling first. However, the original owner had never investigated related information, so Ding Yun could only search on her computer.
[Children with household registration from other cities require one of their parents to have a formal place of employment and a local residence permit. When registering the child for school, a proof of accommodation, a copy of the residence permit, proof of employment, proof of insurance payment, and a copy of their ID card are required.
Proof of social security payment and immunization records are also needed.
Additionally, a certain tuition fee for non-resident students will be charged.]
[Children with household registration from other cities must have one of their parents holding a valid residence permit in the enrollment area for one year or more to be eligible for enrollment. In addition, whether they can successfully enroll depends on the kindergarten's enrollment capacity or is coordinated by the education bureau based on enrollment situations in the area.]
After reading the information on the computer, Ding Yun immediately began to consider what documents she was missing:
"I don't have a place of employment and haven't paid social security, so I'm missing two proofs. No, there don't seem to be any kindergartens near where I'm renting. Does that mean I'm also missing a valid residence permit in the enrollment area for one year or more?
Then I'll have to move.
And move near the school district?
And according to the information above, it seems that even with all the documents, successful enrollment is not guaranteed. My goodness, kindergarten is already this troublesome. If I continue to elementary school, won't it be even more troublesome!
What will happen to the child if I find a job?
With no one to help with the child, I have no way to get away. Hiring a nanny is not reassuring. If I go back home, it's convenient, but my hometown is a small county, and the educational resources will definitely be lacking. I need to think about it."
There were definitely differences between enrolling in school in a different place and enrolling locally. Both options had their pros and cons, and Ding Yun was currently struggling to decide.
After pondering for a while and still unable to make up her mind, she could only continue to search for information online. She finally found another solution: buying a house outright locally and transferring her household registration.
The child could be with her and have local household registration.
However, this brought another problem: housing prices in the local area were very expensive. Prices in slightly more prosperous areas were around 50,000 yuan per square meter, and the price of school district housing would not be lower than 80,000 yuan. To buy a school district house outright, plus taxes and other fees, she would need at least ten million yuan, which her current cash was clearly insufficient for.
This was because after paying taxes on over three million yuan,
She only received 2.8 million yuan.
By any calculation, she was still short of over 7 million yuan.
"This matter is really troublesome. Selling some top-grade jade occasionally is fine, but if I keep selling it continuously, it will be too conspicuous. Besides, I can't explain the source of these jades. Continuously selling them is not a long-term solution. I need to find a legitimate source of income to feel at ease."
The issue of insufficient funds for buying a house quickly led Ding Yun to consider her future. Not to mention the problem of exposure from selling items from other worlds, just the fact that she would have considerable funds in the future when her child grew up and she remained unemployed would have a negative impact on the child.
It could easily lead the child astray in terms of values.
Therefore, it was imperative for her to either find a job or establish a legitimate income channel in the future.
With these thoughts, Ding Yun immediately opened the Interstellar Second-hand Trading Device again and sorted through the items currently for sale.
The second-hand starships and mechas were clearly not in line with her desire for a low profile, and they could cause global tremors. Of course, the most crucial thing was that they were too expensive.
She was also reluctant to buy them, so they were directly passed over.
The nearly expired products from the Xianxia world had uncertain medicinal effects, and they could even kill people. To avoid a manslaughter case, Ding Yun also passed them over.
After this screening,
Ding Yun finally kept only two items: a second-hand household robot and the mermaid pearl she had bought before. She intended to buy the household robot to help with housework. Although it would definitely be more expensive than a nanny, it was safe and there was no need to worry about accidents.
The mermaid pearl was prepared for starting a business.
She didn't want to engage in any astonishing industries, and she was afraid of the dangers of internal consumables. Therefore, after much consideration, only topical products were reliable and safe.
The mermaid's tears in the mermaid pearl
were perfectly suitable.
The most crucial point was that she had personally tested its effects, and they were indeed excellent. Even if diluted a hundred times, the effect was much better than the products sold on the market. The skincare products on the market were good enough if they could maintain stability, let alone the actual effects of removing spots and anti-aging, which could not be compared to medical aesthetics at all.
As long as she added more water to the mermaid's tears,
it would be enough to make the product effective
without being too astonishing.
Anyway, her child was just two years old, and she would have to wait until she was at least four years old to enroll her in kindergarten, so there was no need to rush the house purchase for now.
Moreover, given the effectiveness of the mermaid's tears,
Ding Yun did not believe that she would not be able to earn enough money to buy a house within two years. Therefore, her previous plans were quickly overturned, leaving only three points.
First, she would spend three hundred transaction coins to buy the second-hand household robot, which looked nothing like a human, to help her with housework so that she could have energy to do other things.
Second, she would start a skincare business using the mermaid pearl.
Third, she would always remember to get revenge on her ex-boyfriend's family.
Ding Yun completed the first point of these three plans in just three minutes. She smoothly spent three hundred transaction coins, plus one hundred transaction coins for shipping, to buy the second-hand household robot, which was considered an antique in the interstellar world, and quickly figured out the simple operation method of this second-hand robot.
She successfully freed herself from housework.
Even daily meals and baby food
were all handled by that second-hand household robot.
If Ding Yun hadn't wanted to spend time with her child every day and cultivate their mother-daughter relationship, even childcare could have been completely taken over by the household robot.
In short, it was incredibly comfortable to use.
Anyone who used it would know.
The only drawback was its high power consumption.
