When Chu Yan picked up the little bun, the little bun frowned a little in his arms and mumbled something, but thankfully he didn't wake up.
This made Chu Yan extremely nervous.
Although the baby garnered so much of his wife's attention, making Chu Yan quite jealous, he felt that he, as her husband, wasn't valued as much.
However, actually holding the little dumpling in his arms still made a certain part of Chu Yan's heart soften and melt.
Perhaps it's the milky aroma of the little buns, or their soft, chewy, and petite texture.
This made Chu Yan think of his future child with Ye Nian'an.
The movements were unconsciously relaxed and incredibly gentle.
Chu Zhenyuan and Chi Xinyao couldn't help but smile knowingly at Chu Yan's expression.
Since you're married, you'll inevitably become parents sooner or later.
Although now is not the right time, the energy and drive these young people have put in this past year is probably about time to come.
It would be good to have Chu Yan look after the little bun and make preparations in advance.
Seeing how carefully his son takes care of the little dumpling, he'll definitely be a good father in the future.
After returning to the educated youth settlement, Ye Nian'an asked Chu Yan to put the little bun on the bed first, and then handed over the books that she had sorted out from the recycling station that day to Chi Xinyao and Chu Xin'er.
Chu Xin'er took the book with a look of surprise and delight: "Sister-in-law, so this is what you did at the recycling station today? You went to so much trouble!"
"Xin'er, I know your sister-in-law has put in a lot of effort, so don't let her down. Study hard and try to pass the exam on your first try."
"I know, Mom. I've already put in so much effort. Even if I'm unwilling, I'm not the kind of person who gives up halfway. That would be a waste of all my previous hard work."
Ye Nian'an smiled and said, "Hehe, it's good that Xin'er and Mom are so confident."
When Ye Nian'an returned to the room, she saw that the little girl was still sleeping. She went up to her, took her little hand, and took her pulse.
The pulse is steady, there shouldn't be anything wrong...
At that moment, the little bun subconsciously grabbed Ye Nian'an's fingertips.
Unable to break free, and afraid of waking the little dumpling by making too much noise, she simply went to bed and lay down next to him.
Feeling a strong sense of security beside him, the little dumpling subconsciously snuggled closer to Ye Nian'an's arms, revealing his soft, chubby little head.
Warm and fragrant.
Seeing that there was no place for him on the bed, Chu Yan said softly, "I'll just sleep on the floor."
"Brother Yan, I'm sorry, I can take care of the little bun myself."
"It's alright. Since we saved their child, we should take responsibility for it. The little dumpling is so cute, isn't he?"
"Yes... Such a lovely child. It's fortunate that she didn't fall victim to the spies. Hopefully, her family will be more vigilant and protect her well after they take her back."
"It definitely will."
The next day.
After the Chu family went to town to deliver the grain, they returned late and brought back a little girl with them.
Rumors spread like wildfire.
Some say that the Chu family picked it up and raised it.
Some people say that Ye Nian'an and Chu Yan went to the hospital for a checkup, and that one of them, or both of them, couldn't have a child, and coincidentally, a child was lost, so they brought one back.
Some people say that hearing the little girl call Ye Nian'an "sister" means she's probably from her maternal family.
There are all sorts of ridiculous versions.
Yang Lijuan hurriedly found Jiang Nuan.
At this moment, Jiang Nuan was anxiously waiting for the certificate of merit sent by the police station.
This is the first time in her life that she has received a government award, which will be included in her resume in the future.
She's got an award certificate now! And she can take this opportunity to get a bigger share of the grain!
At the same time, eliminating Su Mingyue, a potential culprit who might plot against her, allowed her to breathe a sigh of relief.
Although Su Mingyue's sentence has not yet been handed down, it is estimated that she will not be released until she returns to the city.
After her reputation was ruined, the Bai family didn't want her anymore. How could she possibly have the face to return to Liangtian Township?
Yang Lijuan then came to Jiang Nuan mysteriously and told her that Ye Nian'an and the others had brought back a little girl.
"You mean... Comrade Chu Yan and Comrade Ye Nian'an might be unable to have children, and they adopted a baby girl?"
"No, Lijuan, you can't just say things like that!"
Jiang Nuan was genuinely afraid of the Chu family, but at the same time, she wanted to curry favor with them and live a life of luxury like Leng Zhaodi.
After helping them catch the murderer, Ye Nian'an will at least treat me better, right?
"I heard it from someone else, but it's true that Dr. Ye brought back a little girl, and that little girl is very attached to Dr. Ye."
"This morning when Dr. Ye was making breakfast, many people saw that little girl surrounding Dr. Ye, chattering away. I heard she's quite cute."
"oh……"
Jiang Nuan looked thoughtful.
Yang Lijuan was a little confused: "Jiang Nuan, what's wrong with you? This is not like you at all. You're not even saying anything about this."
"What's there to comment on? Do you really think that Comrade Ye Nian'an and Comrade Chu Yan couldn't have children, so they brought home a baby? Even if that's the case, what can we say?"
"Lijuan, I never knew you were such a gossip. That's not a good habit."
"..."
Yang Lijuan didn't know what to say for a moment.
It seems her earlier guess was indeed correct.
This incident of accusing Su Zhiqing, coupled with the treatment Leng Zhaodi received from the Chu family, all contributed to the situation.
Jiang Nuan also wanted to find an opportunity to curry favor with the Chu family so that she could have a better life.
so……
Wouldn't my chances of getting close to the Chu family be even lower?
