"Can't you choose another family?" Now that things have gotten so bad with the Lu family, how can we get married?

Grandma Zhou really doesn't like the Lu family now. In her eyes, Lu Yuantao is a particularly scheming person.

This kind of person is the one she hates and dislikes the most. After breaking off the engagement, she was very glad that she did not become a relative of this person.

As a result, her grandson gave her such a heavy blow again, and she was a little angry.

"Grandma, think about it, she's different from her father." Seeing that she was about to get angry, Zhou Ziheng quickly helped her to the sofa.

"What do you say?" Seeing her grandson being so protective of her, she became even more upset. She was not someone who didn't know how to adapt. If the child was really a good one, it would be fine with such a father.

"The marriage was arranged without her knowledge. She disagreed with it and moved out of the Lu family shortly after. She now lives with her grandmother. Grandma Lu said that if she gets married, she doesn't need her father's consent. The two families don't have much contact."

"Oh?" Grandma became interested this week.

"What's going on?"

He told Grandma Zhou everything he knew, for example, that Lu Xiangxiang had been dependent on his grandmother in his hometown since he was born.

She didn't come back until she was married off, so she was different from the people in the Lu family, and Lu Xiangxiang thought she was very outstanding.

I was admitted to Qing University and now I am assigned to his municipal bureau.

Grandma Zhou was surprised. "She also graduated from Qing University? And was assigned to your municipal bureau?"

"That's right." He nodded. He didn't say anything about her major. All he knew was that the girl was very outstanding.

"It seems that Lu Zhiyao is much better in both appearance and ability." She sighed.

"She's a really nice person. I'll bring her to meet you when I have the chance."

The fact that the taciturn grandson said so much for her was enough to show that he really liked her.

"Forget it, forget it. Grandma already knows. Don't worry, I won't embarrass your wife in the future. The only thing I care about is when you get married."

"She said there's no rush, so I came to ask you."

"Just bring her to our house and I'll help you." Grandma Zhou said, patting her chest.

Zhou Ziheng was thinking about the feasibility of this matter, "Let's talk about it later."

It was too hasty for him to want to get married so soon after they started dating. Thinking of this, he suppressed his inner excitement.

This morning, Lu Xiangxiang and Zhou Ziheng had just arrived at the Public Security Bureau when a little cannonball rushed over and threw herself into her arms.

The man was dirty, and if you didn't know him, you would think he was a beggar from somewhere. But when you took a closer look, you realized he was an acquaintance.

"Are you Duoduo?"

Duoduo seemed to be even thinner than the last time I saw her, which showed that she had not had a good time recently.

"Sister." Duoduo hugged her tightly.

"Why are you here?" He looked around and didn't see anyone else. It was dozens of kilometers from Duoduo's place to here. Moreover, her clothes were tattered and the shoes on her feet were worn out. She was wearing so little clothes in such cold weather.

Her eyes were full of heartache, and she and Zhou Ziheng took her to the police station.

It was windy and cold outside, so she asked Duoduo to wait while she went back to the dormitory to get her some clothes to cover herself.

"Gurgle." She felt her stomach growling.

She covered her stomach and said, "Ziheng." She looked at Zhou Ziheng, and he nodded and turned to leave.

He came back after a while with buns, soy milk and other things in his arms. I gave them to her directly after I brought them back.

Duoduo took it and gobbled it up, stuffing it all down.

"Don't eat so fast. No one will snatch it from you. There's more." She touched Duoduo's head, but Duoduo dodged.

"What? Now you're not allowed to touch me?"

"Dirty." Duoduo knew that she was dirty. She hadn't taken a bath for two or three days and didn't want to dirty her sister's hands.

"Sis, don't mind the dirt, eat it." She continued to pat her head with a firm movement.

Finally, Duoduo finished her breakfast and took a sip of soy milk. She looked at her with a pair of big, dark, watery eyes.

"What's the matter?"

"Sister, can you take me in? I can work for you." These were the first words she said.

Her eyes widened in shock.

"My uncle went back to his hometown after he lost his job. He didn't take me with him when he left, saying that I was an unlucky person." Duoduo lowered her head.

"Duoduo is not a jinx. How could you be a jinx when you are so good?" She felt distressed. "Your uncle and aunt don't want your sister, but you do."

Isn't it just raising a child? She can do it, but the household registration and other things are a bit troublesome. She looked at Zhou Ziheng for help.

"Don't worry, I'll help you with the matter."

"Really? Thank you, Captain Zhou." She smiled happily.

The woman's smile was so bright that Zhou Ziheng's heart was softened by her smile.

"Then I'd like to ask for leave."

"Okay, you're allowed to take leave." Zhou Ziheng asked for leave for her straightforwardly.

Before leaving, she borrowed Zhou Ziheng's bicycle and took Duoduo back home, stopping at the doorstep. She had agreed to it on the spur of the moment and hadn't told her grandmother about it yet.

Now I am a little hesitant.

"Sister?" Duoduo held her hand, "If it's too difficult, just send me to an orphanage."

Taking a deep breath, she pushed open the gate.

Miao Cuihua was killing a chicken at the time. When she heard the door open, she looked up and saw her granddaughter coming back.

"Didn't you go to work? Why are you back?"

"Grandma, I have something to discuss with you." She began hesitantly.

"What's the matter?" Looking at her expression, it must be nothing good, thought Miao Cuihua, who knew Lu Xiangxiang very well.

"I want to adopt this child." She closed her eyes and pushed Duoduo out from behind her.

Miao Cuihua stared at the dirty child with wide eyes. The child was so thin and small, and her clothes were loose, not to mention her hair that looked like a chicken coop.

"You, you, you."

She thought Miao Cuihua was going to be angry, so she quickly said, "Duoduo is also pitiful. She has no family left."

"Oh, why is this little girl so pitiful?" Who knew that Miao Cuihua slapped her thigh and felt so distressed for the little girl.

"This little face is so thin that it's just bones. And how long has it been since you washed your hair? No, I can't stand it anymore." Miao Cuihua quickly washed the pot, poured water in and started to boil water.

An hour later, Duoduo, who had been scrubbed clean from head to toe, appeared in front of them. Miao Cuihua pinched her chin and said, "This little girl looks pretty after she's scrubbed clean, but she's a little thin."

"Grandma, about adopting Duoduo..." She pulled Miao Cuihua's hand and shook it.

"Oh, just take it in. It's not like our family can't afford it. It's just raising a child, right? Your mother, weren't you raised by your grandma?"

She pursed her lips and smiled slightly, pulling her arm and acting coquettishly, "I knew that grandma was a kind-hearted grandma."
