Chapter 258 Grandpa's Long-Term Vision
“Of course I know that the family Grandpa found for Tian Mi is very good, but what about Uncle San… won’t he feel a little uncomfortable?” Lei Jingwu said with a smile.
Lei Jingwu had absolute faith in his grandfather's abilities.
That night, Lei Jingwu and Gu Changqin brought Xiaotian back to Shanghai at around 9 p.m.
Grandpa Lei hadn't rested yet, waiting for Lei Jingwu and the others to return.
After they returned, Grandpa Lei only brought Xiao Tiantian with him; as for Tian Mi…
Grandpa Lei didn't even glance at it before having it delivered to a pre-arranged family.
That family was a distant relative of the Lei family. In terms of seniority, Lei Jingwu had to call that family his cousin. They were said to be a distant nephew of Old Madam Lei before she passed away.
That cousin was an extremely honest and kind man, and his wife was a feisty and capable woman. Unfortunately, for a period of time, Lei Jingwu's cousin was beaten so badly that he lost his fertility.
Fortunately, his wife has always stayed by his side and they've been together ever since.
The couple had no children and originally planned to live out their lives like this. When Grandpa Lei learned that Tian Mi had been sent to his son's house by Tian Lei, he immediately thought of the couple.
They will raise Tian Mi as their own child and treat her very well.
Although they couldn't live as well as the Lei family, their lives were definitely much better than those of ordinary people.
The child arrived on the evening of the 26th of the twelfth lunar month. Uncle Lei Jingwu's family had already prepared everything the child needed. As soon as Tian Mi arrived, the two of them took her away.
Baby bottles, formula, diapers, clothes and other necessities for the baby—Lei Jingwu's cousin's family had everything prepared.
On the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month, the two of them registered Tian Mi's household registration and changed her name.
Tian Mi is no longer called Tian Mi, she's called Su Nuannuan now...
When Lei Jingwu learned that his grandfather had sent the child to his cousin's house, he was initially surprised, but quickly understood why his grandfather had done so.
Although my uncle was honest and kind, my aunt was extremely shrewish. That year, when my uncle was dragged out, if it weren't for my aunt protecting him, he probably would have lost his life.
Tian Lei wants to go to her cousin's house to ask for a child when she grows up...
Haha, it would be strange if Auntie didn't skin Tian Lei alive!
Since the two don't have children, they'll definitely treat Tian Mi... no, I mean Su Nuannuan very well.
...
While Lei Jingwu's mind was racing, Old Master Lei's mind was also racing.
That third son... he's already like that, he won't amount to much in this life.
He wouldn't let his third son's affairs affect other family members, and he certainly wouldn't let his third son's affairs involve his grandson, Tiantian.
Therefore, sending the child to Lei Jingwu's cousin's house is the best option.
“Your third uncle… isn’t that stupid. He should know that doing this is the best thing for that child.”
As for him feeling sorry for the child... how could that be!
When your third aunt passed away, everyone said that your third uncle had lost his life!
But what happened next...?
He remarried in less than a year! Your third uncle is selfish and heartless, how could he not be willing to let go?
Haha, I bet he'll just be secretly pleased to know I made these arrangements!
"Luckily, I don't live with him anymore, otherwise I'd be worried he'd corrupt my grandson." Old Master Lei sneered.
Lei Jingwu fell silent.
Tian Tian's father... seems quite heartless!
After discussing Secretary Lei's matter, Old Master Lei asked about some other things.
I asked a lot of questions about Yao Shula.
"Tian Tian's older sister is a good girl, she's really good to Tian Tian!"
"Ah, what a pity, she's not from our Lei family. If she were my granddaughter, I would definitely devote all my energy to her." Old Master Lei felt a little regretful.
If only she were really my granddaughter!
Lei Jingwu chuckled, unsure of what to say.
After saying a few more casual words, Old Master Lei was about to ask Lei Jingwu to leave when he suddenly remembered something.
"Keigo, you're not getting any younger! Why aren't you dating anyone yet?"
Your mom told me last time that a lot of people have asked you if you have a boyfriend, and quite a few people want to introduce you to someone!
"What are you really thinking?!" Old Master Lei asked, pulling Lei Jingwu aside.
Lei Jingwu has a big head.
"Grandpa, I don't want to talk about this right now. I guess it's not the right time yet!" Lei Jingwu quickly explained.
"What do you mean it's not the right time yet? Do you mean you haven't figured it out yet?"
"You really should learn from the Gu family's son in this respect. Look at him, he's dated so many girls already. You're really not as good as him in this respect," said the old man from the Lei family, with a hint of bitterness in his voice.
Lei Jingwu chuckled to himself.
Yes, Gu Changqin has talked to quite a few people, but none of them have worked out!
Oh, I recently took a liking to someone, but before we even started dating, they threw cold water on my plans.
He doesn't want to date so many people and then have Xiaotian ask him, "Dude, is it because you can't have kids that people aren't dating you anymore?"
"Alright, I know you don't like hearing this. It's fine if you get married later."
Getting married later in life will at least reduce the number of problems that arise.
"Alright, go ahead and get busy! Apart from Tiantian, none of you are any of the easy ones." Old Master Lei waved his hand at Lei Jingwu.
Lei Jingwu quickly left Old Master Lei's study.
Okay, now I finally have an excuse to stop anyone in my family from pressuring me to go on dates.
Just say that Grandpa said it's better for him to get married later!
...
As soon as Lei Jingwu left Old Master Lei's study, he hurried off to attend to another very important matter.
He still remembered that Yao Shula had asked him to do something, and he had to get it done before the end of the year.
After all, it's not a good time to ask someone for favors during the Chinese New Year.
Lei Jingwu quickly returned to his room, took out the phone book from the drawer, and picked up the receiver.
"Hey Haozi, it's me! I remember your aunt went to Jiaotong University High School..."
Oh, I misremembered. Your aunt is from Fudan University High School, and your other aunt is from Jiaotong University High School.
Here's the thing, I need your help with something...
Well, let's keep things separate. When it comes to education, your family really knows how to get things done. Yes, I mean, getting some study materials.
Which of these good schools doesn't keep its best features to itself?
Okay, I'll wait for your reply. Let's get together and have a drink sometime!
Lei Jingwu put down the receiver with satisfaction, thought for a moment, flipped through the phone book again, and quickly found another number.
Then another call was made.
"Hello, Auntie, this is Jingwu! I remember you have a classmate at Nanjing Normal University Affiliated High School in Jinling, right..."
Lei Jingwu was very busy in Shanghai, juggling preparations for the Chinese New Year with making phone calls to acquaintances.
Finally, I got everything done by New Year's Eve.
On New Year's Eve, Secretary Lei also returned to Shanghai.
After learning that Grandpa Lei had sent Tian Mi to another family, he thought for a while before saying, "The child is indeed doing very well with my cousin. My cousin and his wife will treat her very well, and I am very relieved!"
At this point, Old Master Lei was completely disappointed in Secretary Lei.
...
Yao Shula from Yun County obediently sat next to her grandmother with her younger siblings.
Today is Lunar New Year's Eve, and the Yao family's New Year's Eve dinner began at 2 PM...
