As the saying goes: "A golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as your own doghouse."
When Liu Hai and her son returned home, it was already evening. When they returned to the town, there were no shuttle buses back to the village. In the end, Liu Hai persuaded her mother to spend five yuan to buy a motorcycle while it was still dark.
It was completely dark and we rushed back to the village.
After entering the village and seeing the familiar scenery, Liu Hai suddenly felt an indescribable joy in his heart. Breathing in the fresh air, the bustling scenes of the city had long been forgotten.
Liu Chen was extremely happy for her mother and brother to come back! She was running around excitedly. The absence of her mother and brother these past few days had made her depressed.
When Liu Qinglin saw his wife and son, he was naturally happy. But his joy was more hidden in his heart.
Although after Xiao Yun's examination report came out, Liu Hai called the village chief Liu San's home and told his father and sister's examination results. However, the first thing he did when he returned home was to report to his father on the results of his mother's physical examination.
.
The little girl on the side also listened very carefully.
When it was said that Liu Xiaofu's classmate Ouyang Hui came forward to help find the hospital relationship, Liu Qinglin also expressed his gratitude to Ouyang Hui. Most farmers are grateful people and always keep the favors they owe others in their hearts.
After talking about Xiao Yun's physical examination process, Liu Hai talked about what he saw and heard in the provincial capital. He talked about those high-rise buildings, the busy traffic, and the high technology, which made Liu Chen on the side feel very yearning.
Finally, Liu Hai brought the topic to the roadside begging children he met when he first arrived in the provincial capital. He talked about the thirteen children who were abducted and sold since childhood, controlled by people to beg and cheated, and how those poor children suffered from hunger and cold.
, about the beatings, Liu Hai spoke very softly, but his father and sister gritted their teeth and wished they could immediately beat up those bad guys who beat children.
Liu Qinglin is a bloody man. He has taught Liu Hai brothers and sisters to be upright and have a sense of justice since childhood. When he heard such dirty things, he hurriedly asked Liu Hai: "Why didn't you help that little kid when you saw him?"
"How can I not help?"
Then Liu Hai told his father how he and his mother came forward to inquire about the child and in the end only little Liu Zi was left without finding his family.
"You did a good job! You are worthy of being my son, Liu Qinglin, great!"
Liu Qinglin expressed his affirmation of his son's actions.
Seeing that Liu Hai had successfully aroused his father's praise, he quickly gave his mother Xiao Yun a wink, and Xiao Yun understood.
"Alas - I just feel sorry for little Liu Zi. I heard from the police that it is almost impossible to find her parents, so they can only be sent to an orphanage to be raised. This poor child was abducted and sold since she was a child, and she has suffered so much
After so much suffering, he was finally rescued. In the end, he had to go to the orphanage to become an orphan without a father and a mother - what a sin! Dad, didn't you see how skinny that child was?
There’s no meat left, just skin and bones——”
What Xiao Yun said was very emotional and sad. Although it was mostly to convince her husband to adopt little Liu Zi, his sympathy for little Liu Zi came from the bottom of his heart. As he spoke, tears fell. Liu Chen on the side
I also wiped my tears.
Liu Qinglin felt uncomfortable after hearing this. A rare look of pity appeared on the face of a grown man, and he sighed for a long time: "Oh - it's quite pitiful, but we can't help. Even the police
No one from the bureau can find her parents, so what can we do?"
"Qinglin, I want--do you think we can adopt that little girl?"
"This - this -" Liu Qinglin looked at his wife in surprise, thinking that he had heard the wrong thing.
"You mean we adopt that little girl?"
Xiao Yun nodded with tears in his eyes.
"But - but the situation of our family - -"
Liu Hai hurriedly said to one side: "Dad, I actually told my mother about this idea first. Although our family is poor and cannot afford to adopt others, isn't it getting better step by step now? When our father and son cultivate the new peppers,
We’ll definitely make a fortune! You’ve also eaten those peppers, and as long as we can grow them, we won’t have to worry about selling them!”
While his father Liu Qinglin was deep in thought, Liu Hai continued: "Besides, Ouyang Hui, Sister Xiaofu's well-established classmate, said she would adopt this child with us. It's just that their family is a big family, so it's not convenient to raise her.
, that’s why we were allowed to take it with us, but she said that she would bear the living expenses!”
Liu Hai finished speaking for a long time, and Liu Qinglin remained silent.
After about three or four minutes, he said, "I'll think about it again. This is not a trivial matter after all. I'll go cook for you first." After that, he got up and went to cook.
Liu Hai's family doesn't have a TV or extra leisure programs.
After dinner, Liu Hai called his sister Liu Chen to his room.
"Girl, do you have any opinion on the adoption of little Liu Zi at home?"
The little girl looked at her brother in surprise.
"Can I have an opinion too?"
Liu Hai rolled his eyes, this girl always livens up the atmosphere, really. She said angrily: "You are the baby of the family, of course you can express your opinions."
"Hehe, little Liuzi is so pitiful, of course I agree to have a sister, so that I am not the youngest in the family! Moreover, little Liuzi's surname is Liu Ye——"
Liu Hai looked at his expectant sister and reminded him kindly: "If you adopt little Liu Zi, then you are a sister. Do you know what responsibilities you have as a sister?"
Unexpectedly, Liu Hai's reminder was met with a blank look from his sister: "Of course I know, as a sister, you have to take care of your sister. Brother, do you think your sister is a three-year-old child and doesn't understand anything?"
Bangs was immediately speechless.
Under Liu Hai's "reminder", the little girl came out of Liu Hai's bedroom and found her father Liu Qinglin. She pestered Liu Qinglin to persuade her father to adopt little Liu Zi.
Early the next morning, Liu Qinglin called Liu Hai's brother and sister to him.
"Since both of you, brother and sister, have proposed to adopt that little girl, when they come home, you must give up everything to them, especially you, Liu Chen, do you know?"
Liu Chen nodded vigorously.
Liu Hai looked at the wrinkles at the corners of his father's eyes and felt a trace of guilt in his heart. It was his idea to adopt little Liu Zi, but it was adding another burden to his father!
Liu Hai secretly promised in his heart: "Don't worry - Dad, life will get better and better!"
Touching the jade pendant on his chest, Liu Hai felt unlimited pride in his heart! It's time to do something!
