Li Xu looked at the child who was sleeping soundly, and the child's little mouth was still moving.
You know what, children are just lovable.
After watching for a while, Li Xu was no longer reluctant.
After a while, Li Xu said, "This child has no wrinkles on his face. Could he have just been born?"
Su Yue nodded, "We think so too. It should have been abandoned after being born and raised for a few days."
"What did you name the child?"
Uncle Xu continued, "Xu Fuyou, how about this name? If not, you, as the godfather, can come up with one."
"That's a nice name. I hope she grows up healthy." Li Xu then said, "It's getting late. I'll go back first and bring the milk powder tomorrow night."
After saying that, Li Xu walked out.
Uncle Xu and the others quickly said, "Take the eggs back. We can't have these."
They felt that since they had no children and no one was sick, they felt embarrassed to ask for the eggs.
Li Xu turned his head and waved his hand, "You guys eat, just think of it as me treating you guys because I'm happy to have a daughter."
Hearing him say this, Xu Kaizhi and others laughed and said no more. They also sent Li Xu out of the yard.
After arriving home, Li Jiakang and others had not yet rested.
Seeing him come back, Sun Xiu asked again, "Just now you said an uncle was sick, what's the situation?"
Li Xu had no choice but to tell the story again.
Everyone in the Li family looked at each other in bewilderment, and then Li Jiakang said, "Just acknowledge it. If you don't, I won't be able to accept it. Besides, this favor is so great. With a name, I can better let my children repay you in the future."
Li Xu scratched his head. "I didn't expect this child to repay me in the future."
Sun Xiu said unhappily, "Whether you want to or not is up to you, but people are very particular about what they do. Nowadays, adoptive families generally don't tell their children their background. By then, the child will be like their own daughter. Giving milk powder won't just be about the child."
Only then did Li Xu understand.
There are only two situations in which one can adopt a child in this day and age: one is with ulterior motives, and the other is with genuine kindness.
Moreover, kind-hearted families generally treat adopted children the same way as their biological children.
Needless to say, the Xu family felt that the milk powder scandal would definitely be blamed on them as well.
But if they were to exchange it for something, the Xu family really couldn't come up with anything; but they couldn't give it up, otherwise the child would most likely die.
They are not shameless people and cannot accept things and act as if nothing happened.
Therefore, adopting the child as a godparent is the best way. Only in this way can the child be no different from Li Xu's own child. He can then accept the milk powder with peace of mind and let the child repay him in the future.
Li Xu laughed immediately. "Now I understand. I'll just accept it. It'll be nice for my child to have an older sister. An older sister will know how to love her younger siblings better."
Sun Xiu nodded and said, "Don't forget to tell Xiaohong about this."
"I know."
We chatted for a while before going back to rest.
Early in the morning, Li Xu arrived at the gate and said, "Uncle Xu, I thought you had asked for leave today."
Uncle Xu glanced around and whispered, "One day is enough. Can the milk powder be delivered tonight?"
Li Xu patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, she is my daughter. I will send her tonight."
Uncle Xu was happy now. "That's fine. Go to work quickly and don't forget it tonight."
Li Xu responded and walked inside.
As soon as he got in the car, Liu Gang, who was already in the car, said to Li Xu, "Someone came to my house again last night, and it was the same people I had traded with before."
"Are they trying to ask me if I still sell food here?"
Li Xu knew what the other party wanted to ask without even thinking, and at the same time, he cursed in his heart those who broke the rules of the black market.
"Well, after what happened, they were afraid you wouldn't sell it anymore, so they came to ask again."
"I can sell it, but I don't know what price to ask for it."
Now he has accumulated a lot of food in his space, and he must take this opportunity to sell it for a good price, but those people have basically exchanged all the good things that can be exchanged, so he doesn't know what the other party can take out now.
"If you trust our family, you can put forward some conditions. As long as they can fulfill them in the future, they will definitely not cheat."
Li Xu looked over in surprise, "Uncle Liu, are you going to guarantee them?"
A few months ago, Li Xu learned from Liu Gang that those people's character was guaranteed, but he did not expect that the Liu family was willing to guarantee them.
"Yeah." Liu Gang nodded and continued, "We discussed it last night. Those people are impeccable in every way. If we can help them, we will definitely be rewarded greatly in the future. So we want to guarantee them, but I don't know if you trust us."
Li Xu quickly spoke up, "Uncle Liu, what you said is true. If I can't trust them, how can I not trust you? I want to do business with people from poor peasant families. As long as they agree to one condition, I will sell it to them at a low price."
Liu Gang looked him over and asked, "Are you worried about their family background?"
"Um."
Liu Gang laughed immediately. "I knew you were cunning. Don't worry. The people we've dealt with before all had good family backgrounds. To be honest, we don't dare to approach anyone with questionable family backgrounds. Tell me what conditions you want to propose."
Only then did Li Xu feel that it was really great to do business with Liu Gang's family, as every aspect was taken into consideration.
So he stated his conditions, "Nothing special, just that as long as they can get another job quota within ten years, I will keep it for them."
This condition was indeed beyond Liu Gang's expectations. He was also surprised. "Your family already has so much work to do, and you still want it?"
Li Xu nodded. "If I don't get a regular job here, I might have to change jobs. Besides, my younger brother isn't very good at studying, so I have to consider him."
This reason is indeed plausible, but Liu Gang still has some doubts, "What if they don't get it within ten years?"
"Then consider it a favor. In a few years, my eldest sister will return from college. No matter where she's assigned to work, I hope they can help out. Your family is optimistic about their future, and I'd like to take a chance."
Liu Gang looked at him deeply and asked, "If they agree, how do you plan to sell the grain?"
"It's cheap, ten yuan a pound, and it's all fine grain, but there's not much to sell to everyone."
This price is not expensive nowadays, but the key is that even if you have money, you have nowhere to buy it.
And even at this price, those people still have to be grateful to Li Xu from the bottom of their hearts and remember it as a big favor.
