Chapter 19 First-mentioned Adoption

 Chapter 19 First mention of adoption

The group of people arrived at their destination as quickly as possible. Xiang Wan took out the key and opened the door without saying a word, and then led the group of people into the house.

After Peng Qingliang saw the things piled on the ground, he rushed forward with a roar, holding rice, lychees, and beef. He was in a state of excitement, as if he was seeing his own mother.

Xiang Wan stood aside and watched quietly.

After a while, Peng Qingliang put away his excitement and waved to Uncle Chen and others outside the door: "First move the things out and weigh them."

"Okay."

Xiang Wan and Peng Qingliang walked out of the room and stood in the yard. Peng Qingliang took out a stack of money directly from his bag. After everything was weighed and the money was counted, he handed the money to Xiang Wan.

"Six hundred in total, you can count."

Xiang Wan still didn't count, he put it directly into his bag and said with a smile: "No need to count, I just counted with you."

Peng Qingliang nodded and left with the people after the things were packed.

Xiang Wan followed them back to Peng Qingliang's residence and started a new day's work.

Time flew by and it was time for Xiang Xiong to be discharged from the hospital. On this day, Xiang Wan and Deng Zhike went to the hospital to go through the discharge procedures.

There is still one hundred yuan left in the fee previously paid to Wan in advance. Xiang Wan has not paid it back to Deng Zhike for the time being. He plans to keep this apparent money for expenses first and then find an opportunity to reasonably use the money he earned.

Xiang Xiong had no feeling in his right leg and could only walk slowly with a cane.

Deng Zhike specially asked a friend to borrow a car and then took Xiang Xiong home.

After Xiang Wan settled Xiang Xiong, he left the space for him and Deng Zhike, and went to the kitchen to boil water for them to make tea.

Most of the tea was given to Xiang Xiong when he was out in the car, and there were also a lot of cigarettes and alcohol, which were kept in the cupboard to be given away. Xiang Xiong himself did not smoke, and his only hobby was drinking a little wine.

There were still more than three hours before dinner time, so Xiang Wan went to the opposite door to inform them that their family would have dinner at home that evening, and then went out with a vegetable basket.

There is no meat for sale in the vegetable market at this time, only a few scattered vegetable stalls.

I bought two pieces of tofu and cabbage, and a few pieces of potatoes. Then I went to a store that specializes in braised vegetables and bought a pound of braised pig head meat, and also bought roast duck, which only cost a few yuan.

After that, Xiang Wan was carrying his things home, and happened to meet Hua Peirong who was coming back from get off work, and asked her to go home with him.

The two of them walked upstairs hand in hand. When they entered the door, they heard the voices of Fu Cuiju and Xiang Xiong talking.

Xiang Wan turned to Hua Peirong and said, "Aunt Peirong, I bought some vegetables, but I can't cook them."

Hua Peirong smiled softly: "I'm here, what vegetables did you buy? Potatoes, you can stir-fry shredded potatoes. Your dad and your Uncle Deng like to eat them. Let's use cabbage to stew tofu. Why did you buy them?

There is so much braised pork and roast duck, it must cost a lot of money. What do you want to buy meat and vegetables for? We can just keep it simple. Besides, we also have pickles at home, which are good for rice."

"I was thinking that my father had finally been discharged from the hospital. He must have been craving meat after being hospitalized for more than a month. The doctor said that he didn't need to have any dietary restrictions. I just wanted him to have some wine and chat with Uncle Deng."

Hua Peirong didn't speak again, looking at Xiang Wan with distressed eyes.

Fu Cuiju saw Xiang Wan and Xiang Wan when she came out of Xiang Xiong's room, and said cheerfully: "I'm back. I brought some bacon over and will steam it tonight to open the door for them."

Hua Peirong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said softly: "Xiao Wan also went out to buy a lot of meat and vegetables. They are in for a treat tonight."

"Xiaowan buys groceries for whatever he wants. We already have them at home. Isn't this a waste of money?"

"Aunt Fu, I invite you to my house for dinner, how can I let you spend money? Thank you for your help during this period, otherwise I don't know what to do. I just take the bacon home. I bought a lot of vegetables. I will need more later.

Please do it with Aunt Pei Rong, I can't cook."

Fu Cuiju patted her chest boldly: "Put it on me and give it to me wherever it is. I'll do it. You guys sit down and rest for a while."

After saying that, he took the vegetable basket from Xiang Wan's hand and went straight to the kitchen without giving Hua Peirong a chance to do anything.

Both Xiang Wan and Hua Peirong knew that Deng Zhike and Xiang Xiong had something to talk about, so they made a tacit agreement not to enter the room, but sat in the living room and talked quietly.

In the room, Xiang Xiong was lying on the bed, and Deng Zhike was sitting beside the bed. The eyes of the two grown men were slightly red at the moment.

Deng Zhike clasped his hands, looked at his good brother and said solemnly: "You are like this now, what are your plans in the future?"

"Anyway, I can't drive anymore. I plan to find some odd jobs after Wanwan goes to school. My legs are broken but my hands are not broken. There is always a way out. It's okay to be a little bit tired and tired. Anyway, I only have one daughter.

, the pressure is not too great.”

Xiang Xiong smiled when he spoke and was very optimistic about the future.

"The income from odd jobs will be much less. Even if you have good hands, how much can you do? How about we think of a way to work in a factory. The wages will be much higher than if you do odd jobs."

Xiang Xiong shook his head: "One of my legs is paralyzed. How can any factory want me?"

"We have a lot of connections over the years we have been driving, and we can always find connections. If you are too embarrassed to look for it, I will go. After all, it is because of me that you got into a driving accident. I can't just watch your life be difficult and ignore it.

Regardless, besides, you also want to think about Xiao Wan, not to mention daily living expenses, just studying is a big expense!"

When it came to his daughter, Xiang Xiong struggled a little. After struggling for a long time, he still shook his head: "You don't have to say it. It's difficult for others to find a relationship in my current situation. I can support my daughter."

Seeing Xiang Xiong's determination, Deng Zhike knew that he could not convince him, so he sighed and said slowly: "Since you don't want to, then let's do this. I will pay for Xiao Wan's future studies, and you will be responsible for the living expenses of your father and daughter."

"No, I don't accept it."

"If you don't accept it, Xiaowan will watch you work hard to make money? Aren't you afraid that she will be sad?"

Xiang Xiong fell into silence.

At this time, the door of the room was pushed open suddenly, and Xiang Hui suddenly walked in. After closing the door, he walked up to Xiang Xiong and said, "I heard everything you said, brother. I think what Brother Deng said makes sense. You are like this now."

In this situation, I can’t afford your daughter’s tuition and living expenses.”

Seeing that Xiang Xiong was silent, Xiang Hui glanced at Deng Zhike, who was also silent. His eyes suddenly lit up. He patted his thigh and whispered excitedly: "Brother, if you feel that Brother Deng is embarrassed to raise your child, why not do this?"

, just adopt your daughter to him. I think he and his wife both like your daughter very much. They can make money as a couple and they are not afraid of wronging your daughter."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two men looked up at Xiang Hui at the same time, and then looked at each other after a while.

Xiang Xiong punched the bed: "Impossible, Wan Wan is my daughter, no matter how hard or tired I am, I can still make money to support her!"
