After years of being a daughter-in-law, she finally became a mother-in-law. Now that she no longer needs to endure, she voluntarily stepped down.
From now on, let Tang Xiaofen be the manager of this company. She should be satisfied.
The next day, Jiang Mei packed Wang Chenchen's clothes and schoolbag and took her to Lu Jiangting's house.
The result was nothing.
I asked around and heard from the neighbors that he was living in a military dormitory and hadn't been back for a long time.
Jiang Mei felt depressed and thought that Lu Jiangting must be hiding on purpose.
No, he asked for custody himself, and now he can't give up the custody.
She decided to take Wang Chenchen back first and then go to the army to find them another day.
This matter soon reached Lu Jiangting's ears.
People living in that community, even if they are not in the same department as him, have family members working in the army, and many of them know each other, so it is normal for them to pass on a message to him.
Lu Jiangting looked unhappy after hearing this.
Liu Anguo said, "Jiang Ting, this matter must be resolved. You have custody of the child, so you have the obligation to raise him until he reaches adulthood. If you don't raise him, that's definitely not acceptable."
Lu Jiangting naturally knew about it, and he had consulted a lawyer a long time ago.
If he wants to ignore Wang Chenchen, he has to change Wang Chenchen's custody rights.
But he couldn't change the current situation.
Fang Qing was in jail, and Wang Chenchen's grandfather was paralyzed, so there was no condition to change the custody rights.
Thinking of this, Lu Jiangting regretted his decision.
"Well, that's it for now. I'll apply for a change of custody after Fang Qing is released."
It seems that this is the only way now, there is no other way, otherwise he will regret it.
Of course, there are things that make him regret even more.
That day, Lao Xu called Lu Jiangting into the office.
"Jiang Ting, your mother has arranged for your two sisters to be taken care of, right?"
Lu Jiangting didn't understand why he asked this question, so he nodded and said, "Yes."
"They won't have any objections, will they? For example, they might say it's their son's turn to take care of the elderly, and then send your mother to you later."
Lu Jiangting was a little confused and didn't understand why Lao Xu asked him these questions.
"No, I've already made an agreement with my sister and her husband. My mother will take turns living with them, one month at a time. I'll give her fifty dollars a month, and whoever takes care of her will get the money."
Fifty is a lot for people in the countryside, no wonder they have no objection.
"That's great. Now there's an opportunity to study abroad. Your lawsuit is over, and I think you should put the unpleasantness of the past behind you and start a new life. If you have no attachments, would you be willing to take this opportunity?"
Of course Lu Jiangting wanted to go, he understood what studying abroad meant.
He is as eager for new technologies as anyone else.
But he was a little hesitant.
Is he worthy of starting a new life?
Moreover, the illusion of a second life attracted him like poison.
Even though he knew it was fake, he always savored it secretly and never told anyone.
After leaving here, will he still be able to see those hallucinations?
"How long will you be abroad?" Lu Jiangting asked after hesitating for a while.
"About two years."
Two years...
Those hallucinations require certain triggering conditions.
If he left here, he felt like he was in the hospital, and the hallucinations might disappear.
If he comes back two years later, will he still be able to see them?
Lao Xu saw his dilemma and said, "If it's difficult, forget it."
"No." Lu Jiangting said immediately, "I'm willing to go. When do we leave?"
"After the Chinese New Year, I can take a few days off and sort out some family matters."
He took out a form and said, "If there are no other questions, please take this form and fill it out. Return it when you're done."
"yes."
Lu Jiangting stood up and left.
Not long after, Lao Xu received a call from the security guard saying that an old man and a child were looking for Lu Jiangting.
Lao Xu was startled, "Who are they?"
"One said his name was Jiang Mei, and the other's name was Wang Chenchen."
Is it them?
Old Xu was suddenly startled.
Only then did I remember that the custody of the child seemed to still be in Lu Jiangting's hands?
No changes?
Ever since Lu Jiangting knew that Wang Chenchen was indeed Wang Jianguo's child, he gave the child to Fang Qing.
After Fang Qing went in, the child also followed his grandparents, which made him think that the child had nothing to do with Lu Jiangting.
Now that I think about it, if the custody rights hadn't changed, Lu Jiangting would still have to raise him.
"Let them in."
"yes."
Lao Xu directly asked someone to bring Jiang Mei and Wang Chenchen to the office.
"What do you want from Lu Jiangting?"
Looking at the majestic leader, Jiang Mei was still a little scared.
He said honestly, "It's like this. We plan to return to our hometown. This child... when Fang Qing and Lu Jiangting divorced, the child was awarded to Lu Jiangting. Lu Jiangting should raise the child, so I sent the child to him."
Old Xu sneered, "This child is your grandson, your own grandson, and you don't want to raise him, but let others raise him for you?"
"I... I don't want to either. I can't bear to give him away to someone else, but I can't help it. His parents are in jail, and his grandfather fell and became paralyzed a few days ago. I'm old, and I have to take care of the old man. How can I have the energy to take care of him? I can't support him."
"Then send him to an orphanage."
Jiang Mei was stunned. "That won't work. I'm not the guardian. How can I send him there? If anyone should send him there, it should be Lu Jiangting."
Lao Xu: “…”
This old woman must have found out everything, so she can't be fooled at all.
Lao Xu looked at Wang Chenchen with mixed feelings.
To say that those things are done by adults has nothing to do with children.
But there are so many children in the world who have a hard time. Who can take care of them?
His bad behavior is not caused by others, but by his parents. Who can he blame?
"Chenchen, are you willing to follow Lu Jiangting?" Lao Xu asked again.
Wang Chenchen lowered her head, not daring to look at him, and whispered, "Yes."
Old Xu paused.
"Why would you? He's not your biological father."
Wang Chenchen lowered his head uncomfortably, his voice becoming smaller and smaller, as low as a mosquito's hum.
"Uncle Lu is good to me."
Old Xu was speechless for a moment.
He is not stupid and knows who is good to him.
"But there's no reason for him to support you."
Wang Chenchen stopped talking and just lowered his head even lower.
Lao Xu sighed and waved his hand, saying, "You guys should go back first. Lu Jiangting is at work right now and can't see you. I'll tell him later that he'll come find you to resolve this matter after he gets off work."
"Okay, thank you, leader. Chenchen, come on, thank you, leader."
Jiang Mei pushed him on the back with considerable force.
"Thank...thank you, leader." Wang Chenchen said in a low voice, forcing himself to do something.
Old Xu waved his hand and asked them to leave. After they left, he asked someone to call Lu Jiangting back.
"Minister Xu, I haven't filled out the form yet."
"No need to fill it out." said Lao Xu.
