Chapter 276
Yueshan Tower, private room on the second floor.

Gu Rao and Bie Ye arrived first, and when they arrived at the restaurant, they were led up by the waiter. Wen Mo should have greeted them in advance, and Wen Mo came back after waiting for a while.

Still holding a pot of wine in his hand, he walked away and said with a smile, "This is the sweet-scented osmanthus brewed by my wife the year before last. There is only this pot left. I usually don't want to drink it. When you come today, take it out." To entertain you, don't think this wine is worthless."

Gu Rao laughed and said, "In your mind, are we such superficial people?"

Wen Mo shook his head.

"of course not."

"It's just that I have seen too many superficial people recently, and I am a little dazed."

He sighed and walked over.

Open the jug and fill the three glasses with wine.

"Try it."

Bieye picked up his glass and took a sip.

"tastes good."

The corners of Wen Mo's mouth curled up.

"My lady doesn't like to drink, but she likes to make wine. She knows that I love to drink, so she specially learned this craft. Now the wine-making skills are getting better and better, and the wines are getting more and more flavorful."

"This year's wine has been buried. I will treat you to drink when you come back next year. By then, you can drink as much as you want."

Gu Rao raised an eyebrow.

"Aren't you afraid that we'll finish your drink?"

Wen Mo laughed.

"Not to mention that my wife brews a lot, you can't finish it in one sitting, even if you really finish it, it's a good thing, if my wife knows that someone likes her wine so much, she must be very happy, and I don't want to drink it all. It's worth drinking some wine in exchange for the lady's happiness."

Gu Rao took another sip of wine.

Influenced by this era, people in this era express their love very implicitly.

There are even some men who regard doting on their wives as a shameful thing, and feel that being an emperor at home is the only way to have face. Like Wen Mo, he always talks about his wife, and he always thinks of his wife in his heart. There are very few men who surprise people.

Fortunately, her husband is no worse than Wen Mo.

Otherwise, she will envy others.

The three of them chatted about the old days while eating.

Wen Mo told Gu Rao and Bie Ye a lot of things that happened in the county after they left the county. There were good things, but not as many bad things.

The further down the story, the less the smile on his face.

Until I mentioned something about Xiaohua.

Gu Rao asked, "How is Xiao Hua doing recently? Has anyone found her adopter?"

Wen Mo's eyes are complicated.

"I found it."

Seeing his expression, Gu Rao knew that Xiao Hua was not doing well.

Although I had guessed in my heart for a long time, when I really knew the result, I still felt a little uncomfortable.

A little girl who is only a few years old has always depended on her grandfather for life. Now that her only relative is dead, what will she do in the future?
"How is she now?"

Wen Mo continued, "That family was very kind to Xiao Hua at first, but I only recently learned that Xiao Hua's adoptive mother is pregnant."

"It turned out to be a good thing."

"However, they adopted Xiao Hua at the beginning because they couldn't have children. Now that they have children, they don't want to continue raising Xiao Hua."

"If I hadn't happened to see them wanting to sell Xiaohua to the dental shop, I would have stopped it in time and told them that human trafficking is illegal. If Xiaohua is missing, I should go to the government office and sue them. Xiaohua should have been sold by now. .”

As for where to sell it, I don't need to think about it.

Gu Rao didn't expect the situation to be worse than he thought.

Wen Mo took a sip of wine.

"I've offended the county magistrate now, and I can't protect myself. I'm afraid the couple will still buy Xiaohua after they know about my situation."

Some self-deprecating.

"That's not my child. Am I meddling in doing this? They are raising the child, and it's their freedom if they don't want to raise it."

Gu Rao shook his head.

"As long as anyone with a little sympathy will not sit idly by when encountering such a thing."

It's just that this kind of thing is a bit complicated, and it can't be judged by right or wrong.

From the perspective of the couple, they have their own children, and it is understandable that they do not want to continue raising children who are not related by blood.

Wen Mo nodded.

"That's all I can help. After all, I'm also a selfish person. It's impossible to take her in on impulse just because I sympathize with her."

He doesn't even have a child yet, how can he raise someone else's child?

Moreover, his child is about to be born.

Everyone's energy and love are limited, and he wants to give all he can to his children.

Gu Rao asked, "Can you find another family for her?"

Wen Mo hesitated.

"It's not that simple."

"If she is a boy, if there is no boy in the family, maybe she is really willing to adopt her, but she is a girl, and she cannot carry on the family line. She will have to marry when she grows up."

Gu Rao didn't know what to do.

Bie Ye held Gu Rao's hand under the table, looked at her and said, "You can do whatever you want, no matter what you do, I will support you."

Gu Rao froze for a moment.

"really?"

Bie Ye nodded.

"Husband and wife are of the same mind."

Gu Rao's heart suddenly became full.

She did have a momentary impulse to just raise Xiaohua by herself. With her current economic strength and the space to back her up, it's not that she can't afford to raise a child.

But this impulse was suppressed when he thought of Bie Ye.

She is not alone now, she can't always do things according to her own wishes, and she has to think about her partner. If she does everything according to her own wishes and completely ignores her partner's feelings, no matter how good the relationship is, she will ruin it.

Relationships need to be managed carefully.

Bie Ye likes children very much, as can be seen from the fact that when she thought of a name for Jing Jing last time, he always wanted to leave a nice name for their future children.

None of them have a child of their own yet.

Although I have met Xiao Hua's grandfather, he is a very kind and easy-going old man, but after all, I have never even met Xiao Hua's face, and I don't know her character.

If you have a good temper, you will be a family in the future.

If you have a bad temper, don't know how to be grateful, and raise an enemy, what should you do?
Adoption is not a simple matter.

Gu Rao calmed down.

"Mr. Wen, please continue to find her an adoptive family. I will give you five taels of silver for her hard work first. When you find her an adoptive family, I will give you five taels of silver as a reward."

Wen Mo was a little surprised, but soon relieved.

The smile on his face became more and more obvious.

"Even if you don't tell me, I will continue to look for her. However, I am really short of money recently. If I am busy making money, I don't have so much time to rush about her affairs. If you are willing to pay this money, I will give it to you." I won’t be polite to you anymore.”

"Do you want to see her?"

Gu Rao shook his head.

"Gone."

Originally, I wanted to meet, but since I have no intention of adopting Xiaohua, I don't want to meet her to add to the sadness, and don't give Xiaohua the illusion that she will adopt her.

Wen Mo collected the five taels of silver.

"If you don't want to see her, then go away. When you want to see her again, I'll take you to see her."

After eating.

Gu Rao went out and bought a bunch of candied haws, handed them to Wenmo, and said with a smile, "Before Lao Litou died, he said he would buy a bunch of candied haws for Xiaohua, but the bunch of candied haws was not delivered to Xiaohua, so I gave it to her instead of Lao Litou." Buy a bunch of candied haws."
