Lin Yu groaned when he heard this, and did not rush to answer. He thought for a moment, and then said, "Let's think about this before we talk about it!"
He alone cannot make the decision on this matter. Judging from how much Jiang Yan likes Xinjie, Jiang Yan may not necessarily agree to send Xinjie to an orphanage.
Han Bing seemed to hear the hesitation in Lin Yu's words, and asked doubtfully, "Jia Rong, you...don't you want to adopt this child?!"
"I don't know either……"
Lin Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head. He was a little undecided for a while. Although the past few days of getting along with him made him like Xinjie a lot better, he was still far from wanting to adopt her, and
Once you really want to adopt her, there will be a lot of troubles and problems in the future.
"Jia Rong, you and Jiang Yan don't have children of your own yet, how can you adopt someone else's child, and it's such a big child!"
Han Bing on the other end of the phone hurriedly advised Lin Yu, "Besides, adopting a child means great responsibilities and obligations!"
"Well, I know this too."
Lin Yu nodded, feeling quite helpless. Han Bing was right. Neither he nor Jiang Yan had any experience as parents. It would indeed be a bit confusing to suddenly adopt such a big child.
"Anyway, I advise you to think about it carefully before making a decision!"
Han Bing said with some worry, "In addition, I will continue to ask people to check and see if they can find out the specific life experience of this child!"
"good!"
Lin Yu agreed and hung up the phone, looked out the window and thought to himself, then turned and walked towards the restaurant.
"Jia Rong, who are you calling for so long? Come on, sit down, sit down!"
Qin Xiulan quickly asked Lin Yu to sit down in front of her.
Lin Yu hurriedly walked over and sat down, glanced at Jiang Yan, and said nothing.
At this time, Xinjie very sensibly held the stack of small plates originally placed on the table in her arms and distributed them one by one.
"Oh, thank you Xinjie!"
“So sensible!”
"This kid is really discerning!"
Everyone couldn't help but smile and praise Xin Jie. They all liked this little girl from the bottom of their hearts.
After finishing the meal, when Qin Xiulan and Li Suqin stood up to clear the table, Xinjie quickly followed suit and packed up the chopsticks and dishes.
"Sister Yan, come with me!"
Lin Yu looked at Xinjie, stood up and called Jiang Yan softly.
"What's wrong? Let's talk about it later!"
While Jiang Yan was clearing the table, he looked up at Lin Yu and continued to clear the plates.
"Oh, come here, I want to tell you something!"
Lin Yu shouted to Jiang Yan again, gesturing for her to follow him.
Jiang Yan then put down the plate in his hand, took out some paper to wipe his hands, and followed Lin Yu into a nearby bedroom, wondering, "I'm busy packing things, what are you doing?!"
"Han Bing just called me!"
Lin Yu said straight to the point, "I asked her to investigate Xinjie's life experience and parents a few days ago, but she did not find out, nor did she find out the disappearance case related to Xinjie!"
"ah?"
Jiang Yan was slightly startled when he heard this, and said doubtfully, "Why hasn't it been found? Who wouldn't be worried if such a big child is lost?!"
"Han Bing told me that there are many abandoned children in Beijing every year, and most of them are the children of migrant workers who come to work in impoverished mountainous areas. Therefore, I think this may be the case for Xinjie!"
Lin Yu explained to Jiang Yan with a solemn expression. Obviously, at this moment, he also felt that Xinjie's parents were probably migrant workers in Beijing and deliberately abandoned Xinjie here.
"Abandoned?!"
Jiang Yan's eyes widened with disbelief on her face, "Someone would abandon their child?!"
As she spoke, Jiang Yan's face turned red due to anger, and she cursed her Xinjie parents bitterly.
Lin Yu sighed helplessly and did not curse along with Jiang Yan. In fact, people like them living in a big city like the Imperial Capital naturally cannot understand the suffering of their compatriots in impoverished mountainous areas.
This is society, this is reality. Some people dine and socialize in the magnificent sea view hotels every day, while others spend their days digging wild vegetables on steep mountain trails.
If you have not experienced other people's lives, it is naturally difficult to understand other people's hardships.
Therefore, even though Lin Yu didn't know what difficulties Xinjie's parents were in, he still chose not to curse them.
"The matter has come to this, and it's useless for us to curse. The key question now is, what should Xinjie do?"
Lin Yu persuaded Jiang Yan in a low voice.
Jiang Yan was slightly startled when she heard Lin Yu's words. She blinked and looked at Lin Yu for a moment. Only now did she realize the problem. Yes, since Xinjie's parents were not found, what should Xinjie do?
ah?
"Jia Rong, you...what do you think?"
Jiang Yan bit her lip gently and asked Lin Yu tentatively.
"I?"
Lin Yu smiled and said jokingly, "You are my eldest sister. I have always obeyed you. Of course, I will listen to whatever you say!"
Lin Yu's tone was full of doting, and he planned to let Jiang Yan make the decision. After all, Jiang Yan's happiness was more important to him than anything else.
Jiang Yan opened her eyes in excitement when she heard Lin Yu's words, grabbed Lin Yu's arm, and said excitedly: "Really? Jia Rong, are you willing to let me decide?!"
"You picked this person up, of course you decide!"
Lin Yu said with a smile.
"Then...then let's take her in and adopt her, okay?"
Although Lin Yu said it was up to her to make the decision, Jiang Yan's tone was still a little cautious, and her watery eyes were full of expectation, hoping to get Lin Yu's consent.
Before Lin Yu finished speaking, Jiang Yan hurriedly added: "You have also seen that she was thrown into the streets at such a young age, almost froze to death, and could not speak, and this child is so obedient and sensible..."
"Okay, Sister Yan, I have said it all, I will listen to you in everything!"
Lin Yu interrupted Jiang Yan's words softly. Seeing Jiang Yan's cautious look, he couldn't help but feel an endless sense of tenderness from the bottom of his heart. He gently reached out and held Jiang Yan's hand, his eyes filled with joy.
It's love.
In fact, he had already seen Jiang Yan's inner thoughts from the beginning, so he said to let Jiang Yan make the decision.
"real?!"
Jiang Yan opened her eyes wide and looked at Lin Yu excitedly, with an expression of indescribable joy. Then she gently raised her head, stood on tiptoes and kissed Lin Yu's mouth with her wet lips.
Lin Yu couldn't help but feel moved when he smelled the fragrance on Jiang Yan's body, and hugged Jiang Yan's waist.
At this moment, the door creaked open, and then a surprised voice came, "Oh, what are you two doing? Are you ashamed?!"
Jiang Yan trembled with fright when she heard this, and fell into Lin Yu's arms. She turned around and saw that it was Li Suqin. Then she breathed a sigh of relief, frowned and complained, "Mom, are you polite?
Why did you just enter someone else's bedroom?"
"Oh, you two are the ones who are rude, you two, please take a look at whose bedroom this is!"
Li Suqin gave Jiang Yan an angry look and reached for the reading glasses on the bedside table.
Only then did Lin Yu and Jiang Yan realize that they were in Jiang Jingren and Li Suqin's bedroom, and their faces turned red with embarrassment.
Then they both turned around and walked out.
"Wait a minute, what were you two discussing just now? I heard something about 'adoption', what does it mean?"
Li Suqin asked somewhat unclearly. It was obvious that she had just heard some of the conversation between Lin Yu and Jiang Yan.
"Oh, mom, that's it. Xinjie's life experience has not been found out yet. It is very likely that she was abandoned by her parents!"
Jiang Yan excitedly told her mother, "So, Jia Rong and I just made a decision to adopt her!"
She thought her mother would readily agree, but what Jiang Yan didn't expect was that after she finished speaking, Li Suqin's face instantly sank, and she whispered in a very unhappy voice, "I don't agree!"
Jiang Yan was startled when he heard this, and opened his mouth in great surprise. He never expected that his mother would object!
Lin Yu couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this, and looked at his old mother-in-law with some confusion.
"Mom, why?!"
Jiang Yan asked her mother with great confusion, "Don't you also like this child Xinjie?!"
"I like her, but I firmly disagree with you adopting her!"
