Chapter 319 Shen Yuzhen Decides to Raise Her Son

Ningbao leaned against Lingling and chattered for a long time before finally falling asleep against her.

When Shen Yuzhen and Li Guizhi finished their work and were about to go to sleep, they saw their chubby little daughter, with her bulging belly, leaning against Lingling and snoring softly.

Shen Yuzhen smiled indulgently and gently carried Ningbao into the bed.

"This girl seems a bit down today, I don't know what's wrong with her."

In the past, after dinner, I would always play wildly with Jiayu and the others in the yard for a while.

I went back to my room after dinner tonight; it turns out I came to keep Lingling company.

"Mom, do you think Ningbao is unhappy because Lingling hasn't woken up yet?"

Li Guizhi sat down next to Lingling and gently stroked Lingling's head a few times.

"Sigh! Lingling has been unconscious for so long, even I, let alone Ningbao, am a little worried."

Although Lingling is a cat, I feel like she's a child in our home, and a big one at that.

I feel much more at ease with it by Ningbao's side.

It's been sleeping for so long, we have no idea why.

However, I don't think Ningbao's low mood today is entirely because of Lingling.

"The Three Pure Ones and Young Master Bai both left today; that's probably why she's in a bad mood."

Shen Yuzhen nodded.

"Yes, that's quite possible."

Although this girl is young and usually seems carefree and a bit silly, she is actually very sensitive.

She was always afraid that her family would dislike her and abandon her.

This child is pitiful; he didn't grow up with his parents from a young age.

Mom, do you think I haven't done enough, making the child feel insecure...?

As soon as Shen Yuzhen finished speaking, whether it was a conditioned reflex or a telepathic connection, Ningbao, who was lying next to Shen Yuzhen, groggily half-climbed up and hugged Shen Yuzhen's waist, the little one snuggling tightly in Shen Yuzhen's arms.

Shen Yuzhen's initial self-doubt instantly subsided.

Li Guizhi looked at her daughter-in-law with kindness.

"Yuzhen, don't overthink things anymore. You did a great job."

Ningbao is sincere to you and us. This child is sensitive, we can't treat her too specially. She's our own child, we should just treat her normally.

Shen Yuzhen looked at Ningbao's fair and delicate face, gently smoothed her furrowed brows, and whispered,

"Mom, what should we do if Ningbao's family comes looking for us one day?"

Li Guizhi paused for a moment, then pondered.

"What to do? Just deal with it."

Yuzhen, let's calm down and treat Ningbao with sincerity, and raise the child safely.

If Ningbao's family comes looking for her one day...

If they truly loved Ningbao and didn't intentionally abandon her back then, then we wouldn't mind having another relative.

Anyway, Ningbao is definitely a child of the Mu family, and I believe that in Ningbao's heart we will always be her family.

If one day Ningbao chooses to return to their side, we certainly can't stop her. I believe that even if Ningbao returns to them, she won't forget us.

The thought of Ningbao possibly leaving her side made Shen Yuzhen involuntarily clench her fist.

"Mom, I've decided that once we've moved and settled down, I'll send the children to school."

"Go to school?" Li Guizhi looked at her daughter-in-law in shock.

"Who should we send? Sending everyone would cost a lot of money."

Shen Yuzhen nodded firmly.

"Come on everyone!

Not only will Cheng'an and a few others be selected, but Sijian and Sikang will also be selected.

Mother, you don't need to worry about the money. Once things settle down, I'll go to the embroidery shop in town and take on more work. Then Chunping will find another job.

As long as our family works together, supporting several children shouldn't be a problem.
