In the famine year, the group pet cubs awakened to farm in Shanhaijing

Chapter 67 Adoption
The child looked up at him anxiously.

Those black and white eyes were full of tears, seeing how wronged he was, both hands tightly wrapped around his waist and did not let go, with a nervous look that he was afraid that he would run away immediately.

Ji Huai rubbed her little head: "I won't leave."

Asked: "Who told you that I was leaving?"

"Auntie!"

Cheng Miaomiao sold out her mother-in-law without hesitation.

She said nervously: "Is it true that she said that you will go back to your home after you recover your memory? Really? Xiaohe Village doesn't have your home, so you can treat my home as your own! We all like you so much! "

"Brother Ji Huai, don't leave, okay?"

Ji Huai lowered his eyes and met her wet eyes.

In his mind, he guessed all the ins and outs of what Ye Ning said to Miaomiao, and he didn't quite understand why she was so sure that he had to leave Xiaohe Village. In his opinion, there was no better place than here.

Moreover, he doesn't feel that he really has the memory of the past.

Ji Huai said: "I won't leave, it doesn't matter whether I restore my memory or not."

He seemed to think that saying this was not convincing. After thinking for a while, he reached out and took off the jade pendant he was wearing around his neck and hung it on Cheng Miaomiao's neck. He bent his eyes and smiled: "This is for you, no one will find it in the future. me."

Cheng Miaomiao looked down at the jade pendant.

She asked ignorantly, "Is this really okay?" She hadn't been a human for a long time, but she felt that there was something wrong with this approach.

Ji Huai nodded firmly: "Sure."

Cheng Miaomiao immediately burst into laughter, quickly hid the jade pendant in his clothes and patted it, took his hand and ran home, shouting anxiously: "Quick, Auntie's cooking is ready, we should have lunch Already!"

"..."

Dr. Zeng put his hands in his hands, his expression was speechless.

He turned his head to look at his nephew, who was obviously confused, and said earnestly, "Zi Ji, study hard, don't imitate them, you know?"

Which family is looking for someone to look at the jade pendant, it must be looking at the face!

As for Ji Huai's face, it's impossible to forget it once you've seen it once. Does he think it's useful to hide the jade pendant?It turns out that amnesia can also forget common sense?This must be recorded in the handbook.

Zeng Ziji subconsciously nodded and asked, "Brother Huai really can't stay?"

Miaomiao looks really sad.

At this moment, he also felt that it would be fine if Ji Huai didn't leave.

"If his parents can't be found and no one comes looking for him, he can stay."

Dr. Zeng glanced at his nephew, rubbed his chin and sighed: "He is still young, so we will have to see if anyone in the village is willing to support him. However, it is difficult for a half-grown man to eat a poor man."

Anyone who suddenly has an extra mouth to eat will feel stressed.

Not to mention that Ji Huai has already remembered things now, the risk of adopting him is very high, what if he runs away after recovering his memory?Isn't that a waste of money?
Doctor Zeng clicked his tongue very lightly.

He reached out and rubbed his nephew's head, patted it, and said, "Let's go, let's go eat too."

...

After lunch, Cheng Miaomiao took a nap on the mat.

There is not even a decent bed at home. She was excited to sleep on the floor at first, but after sleeping for a long time, she felt that the floor was so hard that it was uncomfortable to sleep on. She could only sleep with half of her body resting on Cheng Lin’s body. .

It's just that it's hotter at noon, and she prefers to sleep by herself.

At the same time, Ye Ning also talked about Ji Huai with Cheng Lin. After all, it is not a trivial matter to have an extra person to eat in the family, not to mention that their family has nothing now, and it is too much to raise another half-child.

Cheng Lin nodded and said, "We can wait until his family members don't come over."

"If he wasn't here today, Miaomiao might have been bullied."

Ye Ning was using a wet cloth to apply a cold compress to his arm. There were red and swollen marks intertwined, which looked shocking. After applying the cold cloth, the wound became more painful. Cheng Lin took a small breath of cold air.

He looked at his wife's face, but he didn't dare to cry out the pain.

He could only change the subject and said, "It's good for Miaomiao to have someone to accompany her when we're not at home. I think Brother Huai is pretty good. He treats Miaomiao better than his own sister, so we don't worry."

Cheng Lin didn't expect him to beat Zhuzi up today.

Ye Ning patted his arm angrily, and said, "Tomorrow, I'll take them up the mountain to try their luck."

If you can find valuable mountain goods, then these things will be easy to handle.

It's just that the matter of adoption can be put aside for the time being. After a few days, the government servants will finish the grain tax and poll tax that will be paid for this autumn harvest. Children do household registration.

The dog days of the sun are hot.

It is not advisable to go out in the afternoon, as it is easy to suffer from heat stroke.But Cheng Lin didn't feel sleepy at the moment, so in order not to wake up his wife and daughter, he went to the bamboo house with a knife to cut bamboo slices to prepare for weaving bamboo baskets and baskets later.

Just after doing it for a while, he saw his third brother appearing outside the bamboo house.

Cheng Sanlang's eyes stopped on the bamboo pieces all over the floor, frowned, and said, "Second brother, why are you still doing these things? Parents are so angry that you almost fainted, and they almost said they would cut off ties with you." .”

"You should hurry home now and confess your mistakes with your mother, and you will be saved."

Cheng Lin's movements stopped instantly.

He looked up at the third brother firmly, and asked in a low voice: "Third brother, how is mother doing now?"

Cheng Sanlang said: "Mother is lying on the bed and can't get up. Second brother, what are you saying about you and mother? It's not that you don't know her temper, and you are embarrassing in mother's heart. You still let her be so embarrassed today. fell shame."

Hearing this, Cheng Lin frowned unconsciously.

Cheng Sanlang said again: "Zhuzi is still young, so he speaks straight, but second brother, you shouldn't argue with a child, Zhuzi's face was almost ruined by that kid's hands, and sister-in-law cried so hard at home. blind."

Cheng Lin felt that his words were a bit convoluted.

Everything was said, but nothing seemed to be said.

He held the razor for a while and didn't know what to ask.

"Father and mother are so angry with you, and now they must hate you in their hearts. Second brother, you can even send some eggs to our mother. At least it can make mother feel better. Why should the family make such a fuss?" Cheng Sanlang Said.

Cheng Lin's heart skipped a beat.

Every time his parents were angry with him, the third younger brother would talk to him about these things, and he would habitually open his mouth to ask how much money he needed to send to his parents, but when he was about to say it, he suddenly remembered that he had no money.

But fortunately, he has recently gotten to know Dr. Zeng a little better.

Cheng Lin thought for a while, got up and patted his shoulder, and said, "Let's go."

Cheng Sanlang was a little confused: "Where are you going?" Shouldn't he be given money now?

"Go to Dr. Zeng to get the medicine. For my...ah no, for Miaomiao's sake, he can charge less for the medicine. I will ask him to prescribe a tonic for our mother, and you will take care of my parents." .”
