Yes, this is a tricky problem. If no one is willing to adopt Lin Yu, then Lin Yu will have no choice but to live in an orphanage.

That's not a good place. These days, you have to fight for a meal in an orphanage. How could Lin Yu, who is so thin and weak, possibly compete with the other children?

Given his current indifferent and unmotivated attitude, he might starve to death inside.

There are no orphanages in the village; the nearest one is in the town.

Zhu Kui frowned upon hearing the conversation inside, a hint of reluctance in his expression.

Chen Xinyi looked up and saw a man and two children standing outside the door: "Zhu Kui? Lin Yu, girl!"

Upon hearing Chen Xinyi's voice, everyone inside the door fell silent and looked outside.

Hang Suisui led Lin Yu across the threshold, followed by Zhu Kui carrying a bag and peach branches, and they entered the house.

At Old Chen's invitation, Zhu Kui put down his things, grabbed a long bench, and sat down with the two children.

After exchanging glances with the village chief, the village director, and several other officials, the village chief stepped forward.

"Lin Yu, do you have any other relatives you can visit?"

They investigated Lin Dongcheng and Wei Min's family backgrounds. Lin Dongcheng's parents moved to the village later and didn't have any relatives. Wei Min did have a family, but they weren't from this village.

They sent people there in the morning. Wei Min has many brothers and sisters, and she is not a highly regarded person. No one wants to take in Lin Yu, who is not related to her by blood.

After waiting for a while, everyone saw Lin Yu sitting on the stool, still with his head down, not saying a word, as if it didn't matter to him where he went.

The village head then spoke up: "Let's do it this way, send it to town tomorrow."

Old Chen and Chen Xinyi looked in Lin Yu's direction; they couldn't interfere in the matter any further.

But when Chen Xinyi saw Hang Suisui's downcast expression and remembered what Hang Suisui had said before, she couldn't bear to speak up.

"Why don't we wait a couple more days and let Lin Yu stay here a couple more days before leaving? It wouldn't be good for a child to go to a place like that."

Mr. Chen nodded in agreement as he listened to his daughter's words.
