That evening, the three elderly people and the youngest child stared blankly at the little girl sitting in the chair when they returned home.
Bai Yajing sighed, pulled the three elderly people out the door, and didn't forget to tell her son, "Sanbao, play with your sister for a while."
Once outside, she coughed lightly and began to explain her experiences in the disaster area, as well as Liu Liu's background.
After hearing this, Grandma's eyes reddened. "Poor child, I have no objection. Our family is not short of food."
My maternal grandfather shared the same attitude.
Grandpa Bai crossed his arms and asked with some concern, "Nannan, have you discussed it with A-Che and the others? There's a sudden addition of a child to the family, so we should definitely discuss it with them."
Also, you need to keep the three kids (Dabao, Erbao, and Sanbao) happy and comfortable.
Just don't let the three children misunderstand that someone is trying to steal their mother.
Bai Yajing had also considered these things.
"Grandpa, I know, don't worry."
"Yes, as long as you know what you're doing, Grandpa supports you."
The Xiao family readily accepted the addition of another child to their household.
A week later, Wu Liu was officially registered under the names of Bai Yajing and her husband.
However, her name was not changed.
"Liu Liu, although you are our daughter now, please always remember your parents' names and their deeds. You will always be their child."
Now it's just that we love you together!
Liu Liu's big eyes were filled with tears, and she nodded heavily, "Okay! I understand, Mom and Dad!"
"Oh, my dear daughter!"
...
In October of the same year, another major event occurred.
The momentous movement has finally come to an end!
Then, in the spring of 1977, the relevant policies were implemented.
When he received the news, Old Master Bai was overjoyed.
"My dear daughter, I have to go back to Shanghai. We need to get our family's businesses and properties back. The process is complicated and will take a lot of time, so I need to go home as soon as possible!"
Bai Yajing was also somewhat tempted. "Grandpa, would you like me to go back with you?"
Grandpa Bai waved his hand dismissively, "Oh, no need. You can't leave work, but your grandpa here still has some skills!"
Bai Yajing was not so optimistic. Instead, she was very worried: "Grandpa, your connections from back then may not be useful anymore."
"Those people are all... cough, I won't feel at ease if I don't go with them. I haven't had a break since I went to help in the disaster area. I'll use this as an excuse to plead with Grandpa Gao to give me a month off."
Grandpa Bai looked at her in surprise, "Nannan, wasn't that last year?"
Is this okay?
Bai Yajing, however, remained nonchalant, saying, "Don't worry about those little details! I have a plan!"
Old Master Bai paused for a moment, then thought, "Fine, it's Old Gao who's having a headache. He's the one who took on the apprentice, so he'll have to bear it himself!"
But on second thought, I realized that what she said made sense. Things have changed, and how many people can still stay true to themselves?
"Alright, then let's go, just the two of us! By the way, it's about time Jingxing got to know our family situation. Since you're going this time too, why not bring his siblings along as well!"
Bai Yajing had no objection to this. She had a feeling that this would be a very good teaching experience.
She discussed this matter with Xiao Che before going to bed that night.
Xiao Che was massaging her aching back. "We can get back the Xiao family's old properties and businesses. I'll go through the procedures after I'm done with this."
"It's easy for me; nobody wants to go against the Xiao family. But you guys might have some trouble..."
Bai Yajing had anticipated this, and instead of being anxious, she rubbed her hands together eagerly, "Hehe, after a few years of uneventful life, I'm really bored."
