The man was handsome, from a good family, and generous to her; she was very satisfied.<...
Chapter 445
"What evil ideas are you two secretly planning to trick me?" Qin Yanjun glanced at them and had a hunch that they were up to no good.
Qin Yanci said meaningfully: "We're going to give you a huge surprise."
"Looks like he's frightened." Qin Yanjun's eyes turned slightly: "Si Si, I have something to ask you. You told me before that there is a three-year-old child in the welfare home who is handsome and smart. Someone in our family compound wants to see him.
That family lives in the building behind us. I don't know if you recognize them. Their surname is Lin. They've been married for over ten years but have no children. Today they asked me if my child is still alive."
Qin Yanci immediately said, "Yes."
"Then I'll tell them tomorrow morning that you two know someone over there, so you can go with us and talk." Qin Yanjun added, "Just to be clear, they may not necessarily be interested in the girl. We're just meeting each other first. Don't tell them we're adopting a child. If they don't like her, the orphanage will think we're playing a trick on them, and it'll make everyone unhappy."
Qin Yanci: "They don't like her, so you've done a good deed by bringing her back as your daughter."
"Fuck you! My granddaughter is already eight years old. Why don't you adopt a three-year-old as your daughter?"
"That's fine." Qin Yanci said.
Qin Yanjun: “…” He was stunned for a moment. “Alright? You’re so young, why don’t you adopt a child? If the neighbors hear about it, aren’t you afraid that people will say you’re in poor health?” The more he spoke, the more something seemed off. “Your surprise, isn’t it about adopting that child?”
Qin Yanci: “.” Old fox!
Ying Sisi: "Is it okay?"
"No! How old are you? People who can't have children only think about adopting a child who can take care of them when they get old. What are you trying to do at such a young age? You've never taken care of a child, and you're greedy? Will they let you adopt?" Qin Yanjun didn't know the adoption rules, but it was obviously illegal for a young couple to adopt a child. "Instead of adopting on your own, why not ask your father? He meets the adoption requirements better than anyone else."
Ying Sisi: "I don't have the nerve to mention it to him."
"I mentioned it." Qin Yanjun went into the house and made a phone call. He contacted Shen Yutian and after a brief greeting, he talked about the child:
"There's a three-year-old girl in the orphanage. She's pretty and smart. Sisi doesn't recognize you. What will you do in the future without a child to look after you in your old age? Do you want to look into adopting her?"
"Who told you that Sisi doesn't recognize me? He is my biological son, how can she ignore me? You don't need to worry about my affairs. If you need a child, adopt one yourself." Shen Yutian was about to hang up the phone.
Qin Yanjun: "Your daughter is up for adoption."
Chen Yutian: ".Sisi want to raise her? You are her father after all, so why not let her do what she wants? Bringing her home will only give her an extra pair of chopsticks. I can afford her schooling and education."
Qin Yanjun: "Why don't you take him home? I can afford his education."
"I've never taken care of a child, and there's no hostess at home. It's inconvenient, but you're different, you..." Qin Yanjun hung up the phone angrily before Shen Yutian finished speaking.
He can understand that his son dotes on his wife.
It's unreasonable for a father to let his daughter do whatever she wants.
He put down the phone and looked up at Ying Sisi.
She has always been obedient.
He convinced her with reason, so she should give up her current idea, right?
He said earnestly, "Si Si, did you hear the call? As someone who's been through this, I want to tell you a few things. Raising a child is no joke. You have to worry about everything, from eating, drinking, defecating, and urinating. A three-year-old is too old for even cats and dogs to care about.
The energy you have to put in will be several times greater than it is now, and she will always be distanced from you because she knows she is adopted. You will understand when you have children in the future."
Mother Qin echoed: "Sometimes I can't even take care of my own children, let alone adopted ones."
Ying Sisi nodded: "I understand your concerns. If they raise it, I won't argue. Let's talk about it when we meet tomorrow."
"Well, let's talk about it tomorrow."
“.”
After dinner.
Ying Sisi returned to her room and took out the written application.
He sighed softly, "No one supports us in adopting a child."
“Isn’t Uncle Shen supportive?”
"He's just trying to please me. If I really raise a child, he'll probably nag me." Ying Sisi put the letter away. "Actually, what my parents said makes sense. I've never raised a child, so I don't understand the hardships involved."
Qin Yanci: "What they say is too absolute. A three-year-old child doesn't need your full care for everything from eating and drinking to defecating and urinating. I think she can basically take care of herself. It won't interfere with our business. I started reading books when I was three years old, and I don't remember much of what happened back then.
I only know that I am always the first to arrive at school and the last to leave.
And it was Qin Jin who sent me off and picked me up.
My parents were so busy with work that they didn’t even know what class I was in in elementary school.
The child in the orphanage is about the same age as I was back then. I can send her to school during the semester and spend the weekends playing with her. I'm worried that if we have children in the future, she'll get jealous and do something bad.
Ying Sisi's doubts vanished instantly after hearing this: "Behavior can be taught. Let's see tomorrow. If they don't want it, we can ask for it again."
"Alright."
“.”
The next morning.
After the two families met, they went to the welfare home together.
Xiao Ni didn't cling to Qin Yanci this time. She ran to Ying Sisi and took out a ravaged little yellow flower from her pocket: "Sister, this is for you."
Ying Sisi reached out to take the flower, and touched her head with a smile: "You are so good."
"Then can I go with you?" Xiao Ni's eyes were full of anticipation.
Ying Sisi glanced at Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin beside her.
She had met the couple but had no idea they had no children.
Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin didn't say anything.
Qin Yanjun asked: "How old are you?"
"Grandpa, I'm three years and six months old. I can write my own name, solve arithmetic problems from one to ten, and I can sing." Xiao Ni said as she started singing.
Just opened my voice.
The dean rushed over and smiled at Si Si, saying, "Come over and submit your application to take care of the child. This child is the bravest in our hospital and is smart and clever. With training, he will definitely become a college student in the future."
Qin Yanjun: "Xiao Lin, what do you two mean?"
Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin exchanged glances.
The little girl was pretty, but too outgoing. They wanted a quiet and gentle child. "Is there a child younger than this?"
"Yes, wait a moment." The dean pulled Qin Yanci aside and said, "Didn't you say yesterday that you would adopt Xiaoni?"
"Wife." Qin Yanci called Ying Sisi.
Qin's father and mother stepped forward and said, "If you have something to say, just tell us directly." Don't try to trick his child into adoption.
"Who are you two?"
Ying Sisi: "My father-in-law and mother-in-law."
The dean asked, "Are you going to take the child home together?"
Ying Sisi thought about it for a while and made up her mind: "Yes."
Qin Yanjun: “.” She still is.
This kid is too smart.
You can tell he loves to show off. You can tell how much trouble he'll cause if you bring him home. He said, "We have two children, both in their twenties. Do they meet your adoption criteria?"
