Chapter 416: A Close Call



While we were chatting, the school bell rang.

The brother and sister immediately became excited, looking at the school gate with big eyes, waiting for their brother to come out with an expectant attitude.

"Mom, I'm in the pot?"

Seeing classmates coming out one by one, the child couldn't stand up anymore because he couldn't see his brother. He asked his mother in a baby voice why his brother hadn't come out yet.

"Brother is out."

Jian Yuelan was tall and had good eyesight, so she immediately spotted Doudou who was following the large group towards the school gate.

"look."

The little girl shook her mother's hand and made a request.

Jian Yuelan bent down, pinched Juanjuan's armpits, lifted him up and put him on her neck. After instructing him to hold him well, she picked up Juanjuan again.

In an instant, the brother and sister both occupied the commanding heights of vision.

Jian Yuelan's height was a huge advantage in the south in the 1980s, and she stood out from the crowd.

Now she was holding a baby in her arms and another baby on her neck, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

But the family of three didn't care much about the public's gaze.

Instead, he waved happily at Doudou and called him brother.

Doudou looked over when he heard the voices of his younger brother and sister. The moment their eyes met, Jian Yuelan clearly saw a bright smile on the child's face.

He whispered something to the classmate next to him and ran over.

"Mother!"

"younger sister!"

"younger brother!"

"Pot!"

Juanjuan reached out to him, and Quanquan clamored to get down.

There was nothing Jian Yuelan could do, so she could only put the siblings down and look at the three little guys, sticking together as if they hadn't seen each other for eight hundred years.

They kept talking about their longing for each other for several minutes, and she was so upset that she couldn't help but think, "It's time to go home!"

"Yes, let's go home!"

The child handed the schoolbag to his mother, and with his younger brother on the left and his younger sister on the right, he left the crowd with his head held high like a proud little rooster, under the envious gaze of his classmates.

The three kids kept talking all the way, chatting about this and that. The siblings' vocabulary was not rich enough, and sometimes it took Jian Yuelan some time to understand what they meant.

But Doudou, the older brother, didn't need that and understood it almost instantly.

So, apart from responding to a few words at the beginning, Jian Yuelan spent the rest of the journey as a bystander, listening to the little guys chatting.

While chatting, the child said -

"By the way, Mom, Tao Lele's uncle and aunt are back."

This news is not new, as Li Ping’s father had already revealed it before.

But Jian Yuelan still pretended to be surprised and asked, "Really?"

"real."

The child looked very happy. "The principal actually contacted Tao Lele's uncle and mother ten days ago, and they didn't leave until today."

After calculating the time, he said, "The principal said that if nothing unexpected happens, they will arrive in Ancheng in ten days."

"Mom, where is Jiangcheng? Why is it taking so long?"

"The westernmost part of our motherland is more than 4,000 kilometers away from Ancheng."

When the child heard that it was more than 4,000 kilometers, he was shocked.

"So far?"

"Um."

It’s really far.

Moreover, there is no direct train from Jiangcheng to Ancheng, so it is very difficult to come here.

Ten days is still a conservative number. It might take half a month.

Because you have to change trains, and not just one, but several times.

"Don't worry, you'll definitely be there before summer vacation."

"Tao Lele said that he would introduce his uncle and aunt to me when they arrived."

"Do you want to meet him?"

"think!"

He nodded and said seriously, "I have to see if his uncle and aunt are okay. If not, I'll go talk to the principal."

“???”

"Let the principal be Lele's father."

“…”

This statement was quite explosive, and Jian Yuelan was left in a state of confusion, "Son, raising a child is not that simple."

"What's not simple about it?"

Jian Yuelan told him the detailed rules of adopting a child. The child was silent for a while after listening, and then sighed and said, "Let's wait until his uncle and aunt arrive!"

"Maybe they are nice people."

Jian Yuelan didn't comment, saying that she would only know whether it was good or not when she got there and saw it in person.

Tao Lele's uncle and aunt arrived in Ancheng twenty days later, and there were only three days left before Dou Dou and his friends started their summer vacation.

At that time, Jian's father had already started working in the hospital. Because he had all the necessary credentials and had worked as a teacher at the Beijing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, his employment was very smooth.

More than half a month passed, and he managed to gain a firm foothold in the hospital with his superb medical skills and generous nature.

That day, Jian Yuelan came out of Hongxing to pick up her father from get off work. At the intersection, she saw two people in army uniforms standing at the door of her house.

Soon, the person disappeared.

This is entering the house.

Father Jian's heart skipped a beat. "Why is there someone in military uniform here? Xiao Ye's colleague?"

"Unlikely."

Jian Yuelan gave a negative answer, and she had an idea of who was coming. "If nothing unexpected happens, it should be Tao Lele's uncle and aunt."

Father Jian was still uneasy, "Let's go back and take a look."

He was really worried about the house full of old and young people, and a bunch of furry kids.

"good."

Facts proved that her judgment was correct. The people who came were indeed Tao Lele's uncle and aunt.

Tao Lele also came with them.

The child was familiar with Jian Yuelan. When he saw him coming home, he immediately got down from his chair and ran to her, holding her hand and saying, "Auntie, I brought my uncle and aunt here to thank you."

"Hello, Madam Ye. Our Lele is sorry to have troubled you and Doudou during this period!"
