Chapter 187 Another One Born
Jiang Jianni and Lu Xiangyang's trip to the capital this time was not only for fun, but also for important business. They brought all kinds of certificates, including one issued by the local street office.
We passed a small station along the way, and I even went to the station to call their company to verify if there was such a person.
It was discovered that they were not scammers; they not only had jobs and stable incomes, but the couple had even gone to the capital specifically to buy a house so that their child could enjoy a better education in the future.
This family is considered to be quite well-off.
Moreover, they have twin sons who are the same age as the baby girl, and both of them are highly educated intellectuals. There is no way they would do something disgusting like treating the child as a child bride.
Furthermore, given how well they treat their two sons, even if they don't treat their adopted daughter as well as they treat their biological sons, it's still much better than in an ordinary family.
Anyone can see that this little girl is already quite beautiful, and she'll definitely be even more stunning when she grows up.
If the adoptive family is an ordinary family, they may not be able to keep the child when the child grows up.
This kind of thing doesn't happen too often.
Something like this happened near the young train police officer's grandmother's house.
My maternal grandmother's neighbor had two very beautiful girls.
How beautiful it is!
It's the kind of beauty that makes women want to stop and take a look.
At that time, the older girls next door were fifteen and the younger ones were twelve.
Both girls are very gentle and help look after their younger brother and the neighbor's children.
The young police officer was still a child then. Every time he saw someone, he would tell his grandmother that he wanted to marry the older girl next door. In fact, he wasn't the first person to say such a thing.
But when he was ten years old, the older girl next door suddenly disappeared.
Her parents were always frowning and sighing, keeping their youngest daughter locked up at home and not letting her go out.
The young police officer had no idea what had happened and thought the parents were awful for locking up their daughter.
But two years later, when the young police officer was twelve years old, the girl next door also disappeared.
The young police officer was distraught for a long time, and the parents of that family were so worried that they fell ill one after another.
When he got a little older, he learned that the two famous sisters had been taken away as soon as they grew up. Their biological parents didn't even know where they were taken, and they couldn't stop them at all.
It wasn't until he grew up that he realized that there are some people and things that ordinary families simply cannot protect.
The train conductor was still a bit hesitant and wanted Jiang Jiani and Lu Xiangyang to go with them to the next stop to complete the formal adoption procedures, but the junior train police officer stopped him.
"They're in a hurry to go home, and the paperwork can't be completed in a short time."
"Why not just give the child to them?"
"Besides, the child was found by the other family themselves. If they hadn't said anything at the time, we wouldn't have known."
"I don't think they're the kind of people who don't follow the rules. Anyway, we've got their contact information and address. We can call them later to ask, or we can visit them directly if we have time."
There's no need to waste other people's time.
Jiang Jianni wasn't sure what procedures were required to adopt a child now, and she really didn't want to waste time on the road, so she quickly said:
“We went to our city’s Public Security Bureau to complete the adoption procedures as soon as we got off the train.”
"Don't worry, since we're going to adopt someone else's child, we'll definitely raise the child as if they were our own."
"If you are worried, you can leave your contact information or mailing address."
"I can send you a photocopy once the adoption procedures are completed."
Lu Xiangyang was even more straightforward, directly giving them Zhou Heping's phone number:
“A friend of mine is the deputy director of a police station in our district. I’ll leave you his office phone number so you can call him to ask questions later.”
Since both of them said so, the train conductors, who were already tempted, no longer hesitated and handed the child over to them, along with the more than one hundred yuan they had scraped together.
Jiang Jianni carried the child and went back to her carriage with Lu Xiangyang.
As soon as they returned with the child, everyone in the carriage knew they wanted to raise the child, and all sorts of rumors and discussions arose.
Some people even began to speculate that the two of them couldn't have children, so they wanted to take home a baby they saw.
An older woman even pulled Jiang Jiani aside and confided in her, teaching her how to raise a child who would only recognize her and wouldn't even flinch if his biological parents died in front of him.
This left Jiang Jiani both amused and exasperated.
However, the opinions of outsiders are not important.
Moreover, the milk she had been holding back for almost half a month finally had a use.
She hadn't breastfed her child for so long; if she hadn't been expressing milk from time to time so that her child could have at least six months of breast milk, she would have run out of milk long ago.
This child was probably breastfed.
When the female train police officer first started feeding the baby formula, the baby was probably extremely hungry and ate very quickly.
But after a few bites, once she had something in her stomach, she just kept whimpering and didn't drink much milk anymore.
Now that she's switching to breastfeeding, the baby is eating much more aggressively than when he was drinking formula.
Jiang Jianni felt a chill run down her spine: "Why do I feel like this child eats so much?"
She is also a new mother who has breastfed two children for about four months.
I have a pretty good grasp of how much food a child should eat.
But this child drank quite a bit of milk earlier, and now he's drinking a lot of breast milk.
She was so scared that she couldn't help but touch her belly to see if it was about to burst.
Lu Xiangyang also noticed: "It must have been really bad; I wonder how long this kid has been in the bathroom."
This child was probably hidden in the restroom in the capital. I don't know how the person who lost her managed to do that. You know, when the train is not moving, especially at the terminal and origin stations, after all the passengers have disembarked, the staff will check all the places to prevent anyone from not getting off or from losing something.
In places like restrooms, the door is usually locked.
And what was the result?
And of all things things, the child happened to appear in the bathroom.
Jiang Jianni also thought of this question: "Do you think one of this child's biological parents might be a thief?"
Lu Xiangyang showed her the little girl's face: "If a child looks like this, her parents must be quite well-off. Do you think someone who looks like this would need to be a thief?"
Jiang Jiani was speechless.
Fortunately, this child is very easy to take care of. After eating and drinking his fill, he just sleeps. He only makes a little noise when he peees or poops. He is even easier to take care of than their twins.
This made Jiang Jiani breathe a huge sigh of relief.
Honestly, if the child were too difficult to raise, she wasn't sure if she would regret adopting her.
After getting off the train, the couple immediately took their child to the police station to register and complete the adoption procedures.
Accompanying them was a young train police officer who volunteered to come along—yes, they were still worried and specifically sent someone to supervise them as they went through the procedures.
Since it was already clear, the police station didn't stop them and readily completed the procedures for them.
The young police officer left decisively after the formalities were completed.
Jiang Jiani and Lu Xiangyang took their child and a lot of luggage to the retirement home.
Lu's mother had been exhausted from dealing with three babies lately, and she came to pick them up with great joy, but she was stunned when she saw the swaddled baby in Jiang Jianni's arms:
"You, you've had another one?"
