"Qianjin, what's wrong with you? Who bullied you? Why are you crying again?"
Meng Xiuyun was busy comforting Li Qianjin and hadn't noticed Wen Nuan standing beside her.
"Mom, do you know this child?"
Hearing the voice, Meng Xiuyun turned around and saw her daughter-in-law coming back.
"Xiao Nuan, you're back!"
Meng Xiuyun smiled and pointed at Li Qianjin and introduced him:
"This is the grandson of one of your father's comrades-in-arms. He was entrusted to our home. He was just delivered yesterday. He may not be used to it. Let's go inside and talk!"
Meng Xiuyun stretched out her hand and wanted to pick up Li Qianjin.
But Li Qianjin was already five or six years old, and there was no way Meng Xiuyun could hold him.
Wen Nuan saw this and quickly stopped Meng Xiuyun from moving.
"Mom, hold him. If it wasn't for An An, he wouldn't have cried again."
"An'an?"
Meng Xiuyun looked at her grandchildren standing beside her with confusion in her eyes.
"We were all fine in the room just now, how come we're quarreling in the blink of an eye?"
Wen Nuan smiled.
"It's nothing, don't worry, let's go in and talk!"
After Wen Nuan finished speaking, she picked up Li Qianjin. He Zhixia held He Zhizhang's arm, and the anger in her eyes was about to turn into substance.
Feeling those dangerous gazes, Li Qianjin turned his head and buried it directly in the warm shoulders.
Seeing his actions, even He Zhizhang became a little angry.
"Brother, this little bastard did it on purpose. First he robbed our grandparents, and now he's trying to rob our mom. I'm going to tell Dad to kick him out!"
"Um!"
For the first time, her brother praised her suggestion, and He Zhixia turned her head away in confusion.
"Weren't you unhappy before?"
"I'm happy now!"
"Then next time dad calls, let's talk to him together."
"good!"
"Why don't you two come in?"
Wen Nuan walked into the yard and turned around to see the brother and sister standing there whispering to each other. She quickly called out to them.
Hearing their mother calling them, the brother and sister stopped discussing and hurried after them.
"Mom, Mom, put him down. He's so heavy. What will you do if he gets tired?"
"That's right, he's a man, but he still wants to be hugged. How shameful!"
"Well...."
Wen Nuan didn't say anything, she just felt like something was wrong. She hadn't been home for just a month, but how come her daughter seemed to have evolved in some way...
Li Qianjin, who was held in Wen Nuan's arms, felt a little embarrassed at this moment.
Although he was very attached to the woman's embrace, he still felt embarrassed to be told so by two little kids.
"Auntie, put me down. I don't feel any pain anymore. It's okay. As long as no one pushes me, I won't fall!"
"Uh...Okay then, I'll put you down and let's go into the house together, okay?"
"good!"
He was a naughty kid before, but now he suddenly seems like a different person, even Wen Nuan is a little confused.
Turning around to look at the angry daughter and son, Wen Nuan sighed and reached out to pull the daughter over.
"An An, hold your brother, let's go into the house together!"
"good!"
Being held by her mother, He Zhixia's mood improved a little. She pulled her brother by the other hand and followed her mother into the house.
"You three are covered in dust. Go wash yourself and come back to talk!"
As soon as I entered the room, Meng Xiuyun came over with a basin of water.
Wen Nuan loosened her hand upon seeing this and patted her daughter's shoulder.
"Go ahead, take Qianjin with you to wash up, and come over to eat watermelon later!"
"good!"
After sending the three children away, Wen Nuan asked Meng Xiuyun and He Feilong:
"Dad, Mom, what's wrong with this child?"
"Xiao Nuan, sit down, sit down, let's talk slowly!"
After hearing what He Feilong said, Wen Nuan also sat down.
He Feilong reached out from the drawer under the coffee table and took out a file bag and handed it to Wen Nuan, then he spoke:
"This child is the grandson of an old comrade-in-arms. His father was a public security officer who died while on duty. He was still in his mother's belly at the time.
Because of her emotional excitement, she gave birth to a premature baby, which was then followed by a difficult labor. She died after giving birth to such a sickly child.
The old comrade raised the child alone, but he didn't expect that the child fell seriously ill a few days ago and was on the verge of death, so he found him.
He hopes that he can adopt the child because of their past relationship, even though he still has several distant relatives in his family, he can't count on any of them."
Wen Nuan opened the file bag, which contained detailed information about the child and his parents. The child's father was a hero as he died while carrying out the mission.
"Dad, do you agree?"
"I haven't given him an answer yet. I just told him to let the child get used to living here first. After all, this is not a small matter. I have to ask you and Rongxuan what you think."
Wen Nuan nodded. This matter was indeed not a trivial matter. There was a child added out of nowhere, not just a kitten or a puppy. She had to take responsibility for this.
Especially since there are five children in the family, and with this, they also have to consider the children's moods and thoughts.
"Dad, Mom, have you talked to Pingping and Anan about this?"
Meng Xiuyun shook her head.
"I haven't said anything yet. I just said I was here as a guest and asked them to play with me. I wanted to see if they could get along. But I didn't expect that they would have conflicts after just one meeting!"
Wen Nuan thought about the scene she had just seen at the alley entrance. It wasn't really a contradiction. They were just naughty kids, so it wasn't a big deal.
"It's normal for children to fight and quarrel. You don't have to worry about it. As for the adoption process, I have no opinion.
After all, his grandfather and you were comrades-in-arms, and the child's father is also a hero. We can't just watch a hero's child wandering the streets.
But my idea is that it is better to settle this matter peacefully.
Otherwise, they might think Qianjin is a bad guy who came to rob their grandparents!"
"Girl, since you have no objection, just say it peacefully, if they agree.
"Let your father go and handle the formalities. I don't think Old Li will have much time left, so we have to let him go in peace!"
"Which hospital is this Uncle Li in now? Do you want to go see him?"
"Hey, let's go together after we've completed the formalities. Your dad has asked the dean and several other experts to help with the diagnosis, and they're already exhausted."
"It's so serious. Okay, let's go and talk to him peacefully. Mom, please take care of him and move on."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Xiao Nuan. Mom will take care of your dad. Say thank you. We know you can agree to this for your sake and your dad's."
"Mom, we are all family, there is no need to thank me, it's just one more child, it's not like we can't afford it, it's nothing!"
