After returning from the town, Feng Haidong did not rush back to the provincial capital, but stayed at home to get his daughter's household registration sorted out.
After asking around, Feng Haidong found that registering his daughter's household registration was indeed a bit troublesome.
The main issue is that this matter is not just about fines.
It could also affect his wife's job.
Feng Haidong himself wasn't afraid of the impact, since he was already on unpaid leave and at worst he would just sign off on being laid off early.
However, Feng Haidong doesn't want his wife's work to be affected too much for the time being.
The original plan was to register the household registration in my parents' town first.
But after returning to town, I discussed it with my parents, and they felt it wasn't a good solution either.
Because if we register our household registration in our parents' town, it might be difficult to transfer it to the provincial capital later.
Therefore, Feng Haidong was not in a hurry to return to the provincial capital, but planned to stay at home and ask his friends about the situation.
On Monday, Feng Haidong asked his brother-in-law Lu Feng to go back to the provincial capital first.
After all, Lu Feng might need to be present during the final inspection of Tang Anguo's renovation.
If there are any circuit problems, Lu Feng can solve them on the spot.
Lu Feng returned to the provincial capital alone and went to Feng Haidong's store in the provincial capital to tell Feng Haidong's older cousin about the situation.
After hearing about the situation, Liu Fenzhen, the eldest cousin, made a special phone call to Feng Haidong's parents-in-law's house on Monday night to find him and Lu Wanling.
Feng Haidong, who had been out all day, was somewhat surprised to receive a call from his older cousin in the evening.
Feng Haidong asked with a smile, "Is business at your store in the provincial capital going well, sister? Don't worry, you and brother-in-law, I should be going back in a couple of days."
Liu Fenzhen said on the phone, "Don't worry about the shop. Your brother-in-law and I are looking after it for you. Song Rui is also in the kitchen, so it's okay if you don't come back for the time being."
After explaining the situation at the store in the provincial capital, Liu Fenzhen continued, "Haidong, I heard from Xiao Wu that you're busy getting Mengmeng registered?"
Feng Haidong said, "Yes, I am indeed on the road. Don't worry, I should be able to handle it."
Liu Fenzhen then asked, "Haidong, do you and Wanling have any plans to bring Mengmeng to the provincial capital?"
Feng Haidong said, "Of course there is. That's what I'm worried about. Should I register the child's household registration with my parents first, and then transfer it to the provincial capital when we move there later?"
Liu Fenzhen said, "Since you plan to bring Mengmeng to the provincial capital, then how about this: you listen to your eldest sister and register Mengmeng's household registration under your eldest sister's and your brother-in-law's names."
Feng Haidong was somewhat surprised: "Is this...is this okay?"
Liu Fenzhen retorted, "Why not?"
Feng Haidong said, "But, sister, you and brother-in-law are so old. Isn't it a little strange that you suddenly have such a young child like Mengmeng registered in your household?"
Liu Fenzhen said, "What's so strange about that? Your brother-in-law and I have both been laid off and are about to retire, so what are we afraid of? Besides, our age is not a problem at all. At our age, do we care about what people say behind our backs?"
Liu Fenzhen said very seriously, "Haidong, listen to your older sister. Bring Mengmeng directly to the provincial capital, and register her under my and your brother-in-law's names. Let her be our daughter for now."
Feng Haidong was genuinely moved after hearing this; his older cousin had truly helped him a great deal.
"Big sister, thank you so much. I'll discuss it with Wanling."
Liu Fenzhen said, "Okay, you discuss it with Wanling first. I'll wait for your news."
After chatting with his older cousin for a few more minutes, Feng Haidong temporarily hung up the phone.
After her husband finished the phone call, Lu Wanling, holding her daughter, asked, "Was that your older sister calling? Did something happen at the store in the provincial capital? Why don't you go back first? We can figure out Mengmeng's household registration later."
Feng Haidong looked at his wife, then at the daughter in her arms.
He said directly, "My older sister called and said she wants to register Mengmeng's household registration directly under her and her brother-in-law's names. What do you think?"
Lu Wanling was stunned at first, then somewhat incredulous: "Let Mengmeng's household registration be directly registered under my eldest sister and brother-in-law's names?"
Feng Haidong nodded: "Yes, my older sister said that she and her husband have a way to get Mengmeng's household registration under their name."
Lu Wanling asked, "Won't that cause trouble for my older sister and brother-in-law?"
Feng Haidong said, "There shouldn't be any trouble. After all, my older sister and brother-in-law have both been laid off and are about to retire. It's just that Mengmeng will temporarily become my older sister and brother-in-law's daughter."
Lu Wanling said, "What's wrong with that? My older sister and brother-in-law are so good to us, it's fine for Mengmeng to be their daughter."
Feng Haidong said, "Then shall we do this? Shall we take Mengmeng to the provincial capital together?"
Lu Wanling hesitated for a moment: "Really, it won't cause trouble for my older sister and brother-in-law?"
Feng Haidong said, "No, my sister made it very clear on the phone that she and her husband will not have any trouble. As for what others say behind their backs, they are too old to care."
Lu Wanling thought about it carefully and finally nodded in agreement.
"Okay, let's get ready. I'll ask my workplace for a few days off and go to the provincial capital with you and Mengmeng."
After discussing the matter, Feng Haidong and Lu Wanling told their parents-in-law about the situation.
Father-in-law Lu Chengzong said, "This is actually a better way. After all, if you want to take the two children to the provincial capital later, it will probably not be easy for you to register their household registration there. Now, by registering Mengmeng's household registration in the provincial capital, you can save a lot of trouble in the future."
My mother-in-law asked, "Won't this cause any trouble?"
Feng Haidong said, "Mom, it's okay. If there's a fine, I can come up with the money right now."
The mother-in-law nodded and said, "In that case, why don't you take Mengmeng to the provincial capital?"
Sitting on her mother's lap, Feng Shimeng seemed to understand what her parents and grandparents were saying, and waved her little hands, making "ee-ee-ya-ya" noises.
Seeing the little girl's appearance, everyone in the family burst into laughter.
My mother-in-law said, "This little girl is really the joy of our family now. Whenever I have any worries, seeing this little girl makes me feel better."
The father-in-law chimed in, "Yes, this little girl isn't shy at all. Whether she knows someone or not, she can always smile and laugh with them. She's a natural little ray of sunshine."
Lu Wanling grabbed her daughter's little hand, waved it twice with her, and said, "Mengmeng is the best-behaved child. You should stay well-behaved and cheerful in the future, and keep Grandpa and Grandma happy, right?"
Feng Shimeng waved her little hands along with her mother, making "ee-ee-ya-ya" noises, her little face full of happy smiles.
Feng Haidong discussed it with his family and then called his eldest cousin.
Then he and his wife Lu Wanling packed up and took their daughter by train to the provincial capital on Tuesday.
