Chapter 45
It was rare to have a child of the same age. Yaya, who was held in her father's arms, could not bear it any longer. She struggled to get out of her father's arms and sat next to the child holding her own small bowl.
"Hello, my name is Yaya, what's your name?" She was extremely happy, probably because she hadn't played with children of the same age for a long time.
Ma Jiayu, who was still stuffing food into his mouth, felt uncomfortable at this moment. He slowed down his eating and said in a low voice, "Jiayu," without looking at the little girl sitting next to him. His father always scolded him for being redundant, and he didn't like his own name.
"Huh?" Yaya didn't hear clearly.
"Ma Jiayu, a redundant person in the Ma family." Perhaps out of self-abandonment, he raised his voice this time, with a vicious expression as if he would bite you if you didn't come near him.
Yaya was startled by the volume of his voice, but soon became happy: "Since you are a superfluous person in the Ma family, then come to my house. You are not superfluous at all. I am very happy and want to play with you."
She used to play with other children in the yard, but after her mother disappeared, she stopped playing with them. Her younger brother just babbled and cried every day. Even with the teddy bears and velvet fawns, it felt different and not fun at all. (His reactions were too mechanical. It was okay to watch the child, but it was very difficult to actually play like a child.)
Ma Jiayu opened his eyes wide. It was the first time he heard such words.
Rong Zhou supported his face with one hand and watched the interaction between the two children. He was not a goody-goody who picked up children from everywhere to raise. He didn't even know how to raise his own two children.
This was what the other child wanted him to do, as a way of thanking the child for helping them escape from the endless dimensional space. At first, he just wanted to find out about the child's situation and help if he could. In the end, the child was brought back by two apprentices. The child was really miserable, suffering from severe malnutrition, internal bleeding, and long-term domestic violence.
Any normal person would be angry when seeing this, not to mention that he is the father of two children and cannot bear to see the children suffer. He cannot afford to raise a child by himself after bringing him home, so he should give him a happy childhood and raise him well until he grows up.
It just so happens that Yaya and Shitou can grow up here. A stable society can give children a stable world view.
Rong Zhou has made arrangements for his future life in this world. He has a good feeling about this environment which is very similar to his world.
Two days later, Butler Wen received a call from the agent. Ms. Hua wanted to get to know the agent and express her gratitude over the phone.
Rong Zhou waved his hand, showing no interest in this: "You go and handle it. By the way, help the child with his identity and household registration. Don't have any contact with his father."
"yes."
——————————————
The next time I met Ms. Hua was at the dinner table. Chinese people always like to solve all kinds of problems at the dinner table.
Ms. Hua looked a little haggard, but her heart disease was gone, and she no longer had that feeling of bitterness and hatred, and her face became gentle: "Mr. Wen, thank you for your help. You have fulfilled my long-cherished wish." As she spoke, she thought of her found son. No matter how much pain she had suffered in the past two days, she had cried it out, and now she could control her emotions well.
This time, two elderly couples and Ms. Hua's ex-husband also came: "Thank you, sir, for helping us find the child. This is a hurdle in our hearts that we will never get over. If we can't find the child, we will never be able to rest in peace."
Ms. Hua’s ex-husband was a gentle middle-aged man. He shook hands with Wen Ci Qiu and said, “Thank you.” He was a man of few words.
Everyone sat down, and Ms. Hua took out a document from her secretary. "This is the title deed to the villa. Please accept it, sir." She hadn't sold the house before because she had a crush on it, but now it didn't matter. Giving it away would be a burden to get rid of. "Please forgive the delay of these two days while we deal with the child's funeral."
In addition to burying the child, the descendants here are also looking for the driver and the murderer who killed the child.
Wen Ci Qiu handed the documents in his hand to the intermediary Liu Hai, and the intermediate procedures were handled by Liu Hai and the other party's lawyer.
"Mr. Wen, I wonder if I might have the honor to meet you...you..." After hesitating twice, the word "host" was not uttered. They didn't even know the gentleman's last name, and had never met him once. They just knew that this person existed.
"The master doesn't like to have too much contact with outsiders, please forgive me." Wen Ci Qiu didn't care at all and answered the questions they didn't ask very gently.
"No, no, we were being rude." President Hua quickly replied, "This private kitchen is very famous. Please give it a try, Mr. Wen."
This was also Wen Ci Qiu's first time to come into contact with human dining culture. He was unfamiliar with socializing, but the other party's family were veterans in this area and would definitely not let the dinner table become dull or embarrass Wen Ci Qiu, not to mention that there was also an eloquent intermediary.
When the show was over, he apologized repeatedly and got Wen Ci Qiu's contact information.
Only then did Liu Hai bring up the matter they needed to handle: "Mr. Wen, whose name should this house be registered under?" He had also used many connections to arrange the household registration for four adults and two children. Although they had been in contact for so long, he had never met the person he was actually serving. "You don't need to be present in person to handle household registration, but you must sign in person for the house transaction."
"Uh." The master definitely wouldn't come out. It seemed the case could only fall on Young Master Liu or Young Master Yan. "It's about that kid I asked you to check a few days ago. You said he hasn't had a household registration since junior high school. Why don't you register him under Liu Ze's name? I'll have him come tomorrow to handle both matters together."
"Okay." Liu Hai had just completed this series of processes, so adding one more was not a problem (the household registration management in the 1990s was not that strict, and it was still possible for some remote areas to not register their household registration or to register it afterwards).
"The villa will be renovated soon, so I'm sorry to bother you."
"It's no trouble, it's no trouble. It's my honor to serve Mr. Wen." Liu Hai smiled like a flower. He has been very lucky recently. It's just running errands and talking a lot, so how can he not be happy.
