Before coming to the capital this time, Ye Ming took the 200,000 yuan in cash withdrawn from his card in his bag and planned to hand it over to Lu Nianzi and his wife later.
Ye Ming has always had a question in his mind: Although he and Lu Nianzi are sworn siblings, this god-sister and god-brother-in-law are a little too kind to him. In the case of Chen Yi, in order to help him hide it relationship with Chen Yi, and in order to prevent Chen Yi from being found by Li Botang and his son, this high-ranking couple went to Tianjiang Province in person, took Chen Yi to the capital, and arranged a medical transfer for her. After going through the procedures at the Ministry of Finance, she was allowed to live in their home and hired two nannies to serve Chen Yi. She had the kind of enthusiasm and love that a biological sister or even her biological mother could only achieve.
When Chen Yi called me not long ago, she also expressed the same confusion and uneasiness as him. According to Chen Yi, Director Zhang had completed all the procedures for her to be transferred to the Budget Department of the Ministry of Finance under his leadership, and After completing the transfer procedures, he immediately asked her for a year's sick leave and told her not to think about work for the time being, but to give birth to the child first and breastfeed her for a year.
Moreover, when Chen Yi was recuperating at their home and expecting to give birth, Lu Nianzi took good care of her. Not only did she not let her do anything, but she also asked the nanny to go to the vegetable market every day to buy good vegetables and fruits. Sometimes she even cooked vegetables and soup for her. She eats and drinks, and the couple will accompany her for a half-hour walk every night. It can be said that they take good care of Chen Yi.
Chen Yi felt that she had spent too much money at Lu Nianzi's house, and felt very uneasy. She repeatedly asked to give money to Lu Nianzi. Every time she raised this question, Lu Nianzi smiled and said: "Xiao Chen, If you want to give money, it's a matter of birth. I said, although Ye Ming and I are sworn brothers, in the minds of your brother-in-law and I, he is closer than our biological brothers. He is our biological brother. Brother, of course you are our biological sister-in-law, and the child in your belly is also our biological nephew, so you just need to live here with peace of mind, maintain a good attitude every day, eat well and sleep well every day, let us My nephew was born safely and healthily, and we are very happy and happy. As for money, you don’t have to think about it at all. Your brother-in-law and I have worked for so many years, and we still have some financial resources. This little expense is still enough. It’s affordable and there’s no need for you to worry about it,”
When talking about this, Lu Nianzi said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Xiao Chen, you know, Lin Jiang and I have been married for so many years. Due to various reasons, we don't have children yet, so we both love children very much, and , I am the only girl in our Lu family, with no brothers or sisters. My father is getting older and he really wants to have a grandson to take care of him. After he retires in the future, he can enjoy the family happiness of having grandsons. So, you If you and Ye Ming really want to repay us, when the child is born in the future, I want him to recognize me as his biological aunt and follow my surname of Lu. In the future, his household registration will also be in my name. I wonder if you and Xiaoye have any Opinion,"
It turned out that Lu Nianzi wanted Chen Yi's child to be named Lu when he was born, which was what Secretary Lu meant, because Secretary Lu felt that he and Ye Ming would eventually get to know each other in the future, but the process might be quite long, and it might take five or six years. Years or even longer, if the child is not born with the surname Lu, but with the surname Ye or Chen, then when the child goes to school, it will be a lot of trouble to change the surname. Of course, there is a more important reason: Secretary Lu I feel that as soon as the child is born with the surname Lu, I will feel more kind and warm, and only then can I truly feel that it is my own grandson and the flesh and blood of their Lu family...
However, Secretary Lu also repeatedly told Lu Nianzi: Chen Yi and Ye Ming must be consulted on this matter first. They must be willing to do so and cannot be forced. Moreover, when raising this issue, they must be tactful and do not reveal any traces. Let Ye Ming or Chen Yi think of other aspects.
Therefore, Lu Nianzi took advantage of Chen Yi's opportunity to thank him and brought up this topic in a joking tone...
Chen Yi, on the other hand, is a very reciprocal character. She always feels that she and Ye Ming owe Lu Nianzi and his wife too much, and they are afraid that they will never be able to repay them in this life. What's more, Lu Nianzi also said: If Chen Yi doesn't want to If she gets married again, she can always live in her home and regard her place as her natal home. They will raise and educate her and Ye Ming's children together. This affection is really higher than the sky and deeper than the sea.
Therefore, when Lu Nianzi asked in a joking tone about the child's surname being hers, Chen Yi almost said without hesitation: "Sister, no problem, from now on let the child's surname be Lu. Sister, I'll tell you the truth: Without the help of you and your brother-in-law, this child might have been aborted a few months ago, and he would not have had the chance to come into this world. Therefore, this child was actually kept by you and your brother-in-law. The two of you are His reborn parents, who bear your surname, can help him remember the kindness of you and your brother-in-law in the future. When he grows up and becomes successful, he can fulfill his filial piety to you and your brother-in-law and repay your kindness for rebirth."
Speaking of this, Chen Yi couldn't control her gratitude, and her eyes were filled with tears...
When Ye Ming heard Chen Yi talk about this matter, although he was a little surprised and a little confused, he still replied to Chen Yi happily, saying that the child would be named Lu after Director Lu.
At the same time, he also said to Chen Yi in a joking tone: "Sister Chen Yi, I am an orphan now anyway. I still don't know what my father's surname is. My own surname of Ye is neither my father's surname nor my mother's surname. It's my grandma's surname, so it doesn't matter what our son's surname is. The key is that he remember the kindness of Director Lu and his wife in the future, and remember who gave him the opportunity to come into this world. So, your decision It’s wise and correct, hahaha,”
Although Ye Ming knew that Lu Nianzi and his wife did not expect him and Chen Yi to repay them, Ye Ming was a very measured person and did not want to owe others too much favors. Therefore, he still brought them to the capital this time. Two hundred thousand yuan in cash, I want to make up for Chen Yi's expenses a little, so I can do my best.
Therefore, after meeting Lu Nianzi and his wife in the hospital, he first pulled Lu Nianzi to a secluded place and said sincerely: "Sister, Chen Yi has lived in your home for so long, and now she has to be hospitalized for delivery again. , the expenses must be very large. Although you and Director Zhang are my biological sisters and brothers-in-law, there is a saying that brothers should settle accounts clearly. My words are a bit vulgar, but they are indeed my true thoughts in my heart. If you don't let us bear some expenses, we will be very upset. I came here this time and specially brought some money. Please don't refuse."
As he said that, he handed over the bag containing two hundred thousand cash.
