Chapter II: Adoption
The two old men carried He Yan back to the hotel, and as soon as he entered the room, Xiao He Yan moved restlessly in the old man's arms, and the old man looked down at his wife and said: Wife, this child is not old; I'll see, you're hungry, you wait for me to call the waiter to get some milk, don't move, little guy, wait for grandma to get you food, and my wife goes into the room to don't freeze.
After a while, the old grandmother brought a bottle full of cow's milk and sat on the bed to feed Xiao He Yan The two old men originally had a child, but they died unexpectedly during the Great Revolution in 59 years, and they were only 19 years old when they died, and the two old people could still give birth at that time, but they had no food and no clothing, and they had not been asking for children, and the old woman said to the old man that my wife had something I wanted to discuss with you.
No need to negotiate, I agree;
You agree before I even say it...
Wife, you and I have been husband and wife for many years, do you want to know what you want, I don't know, I know you want to adopt this little guy, I also think, we should also have a child, this is given to us by God, wife, we will go back tomorrow to do the adoption, and we have to get a household registration, okay? .
Listen to you, we'll go back tomorrow.
Xiao He Yan didn't know that he was about to leave the place of birth, out of this place where he had no chance to come back in his life, the next morning the old couple packed up their clothes and came to the window to check out, bought two train tickets to Shanghai and went back to Shanghai, two days to Shanghai Railway Station, and took a taxi to the door of an old community to say hello to the doorman, the doorman saw the old couple holding a small child and asked, Mr. Li, how did you go out to travel and bring back a child, are you old... It's impossible, it's too fast, the relationship between the doorman and Li Lao is good, usually nothing to do, and Li Lao plays chess and chats, so he will make a kind of marginal jokes, curious and curious, but the doorman still saluted a military salute with Mr. Li, it turns out that Mr. Li is a veteran of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and the house in this community is the place where the local government gives Mr. Li the pension, and the government at that time took into account that Mr. Li has no children in his life, so he added a suite behind all the inhabitants, and Mr. Li was not happy when he heard this, Yang Fan, believe it or not, next time you go down the flag to scare me, you won't let you do anything? , wife, let's go home hum.
As soon as he heard this, Yang Fan panicked and immediately admitted his mistake Li Lao, don't you, I'm wrong, can't I, Li Lao...
Seeing the real move in chess, Li Lao's voice came from afar.
After the end of the piece of armor that is going to be killed, it turns out that Yang Fan has never won chess, even if he wins, he doesn't know how many moves he regrets before he wins once, and Li Lao has to let him regret chess, just returned home, Li Lao looked for the household registration book and took Xiao He Yan's birth certificate to the household registration department to go through the adoption procedures, and came to the window of the household registration Li Lao said to the lady who handled the household registration: I will handle the adoption procedures, in fact, the adoption procedures are not so complicated, as long as the conditions permit, you can handle it; I'm sorry, you are registered, if you want to apply for an adoption account, please go to the seventh window, thank you.
Oh, thank you, Li Laolai specially looked at the window introduction written above at the seventh window, writing, adoption window, Li Lao queued for a while and it was his turn, hello adoption procedures, the young lady in the window, politely answered, please show the adopted birth certificate, the adopter's household registration book, the certificate presented by the community, the income certificate, and say the adopted name; It's called He Xin.
The adoption process went very smoothly, and it took less than ten minutes to get Li Lao out of the hukou department, and went to the market to buy some toys and clothes worn by Xiao He Yan, and went home, and when he got home, he happily went to He Yan who was lying quietly on the bed, Xiao He Yan, you will be our grandson in the future, you see, this is what grandpa bought for you, there are rattles, cars, building blocks, grandpa also bought us He Yan new clothes, do you like it...
To add, the names of the old couple are Li Guoxiang and Wang Jingli, as for why they did not change He Yan's name when they were adopted, because He Yan's name was taken by her biological father, and she hoped that she would be able to find her biological parents one day, so she used her original name without changing her name after leaving.
In the blink of an eye, He Yan lived in this house for six years, and in the past six years, it is not long to say, nor short is it short, every day when I see other children with parents and parents, sometimes Xiao He Yan will ask my grandparents, where are my parents going? In short, I didn't tell my grandparents, I went to a far, far away place, and I came back when you grew up. Xiao He Yan's health has not been very good, always cold, often nosebleeds, so the body has been thin for five years, there have been several serious illnesses almost stay at home, rarely go out to play, usually with grandma to buy groceries, accompany grandpa to find Yang Fan to play chess, today is a snowy winter, Xiao He Yan was locked at home by his grandparents and not allowed to go out, Xiao He Yan looked outside, the snow flying all over the sky and the children running around the ground, turned his head with envy to look at the grandmother who was busy with breakfast in the kitchen, Grandma didn't pay attention quietly, they went downstairs, went to play, the second floor of the house is not high, so after a while, the snow is like cotton wool, like fine salt, and also like cow hair, but what falls on the ground are pieces of goose feather snowflakes, snowflakes are piled up silently.
On the snow, a snowman became a snowman with the efforts of dozens of people, He Yan was wearing a warm cotton jacket, his face was red from the cold, but his little hands were still fishing for the cold snow, and then piled up on the snowman little by little, at this moment there was a cute little girl beside him, dressed like a doll, with a little red riding hood, curly long hair, black eyes kept turning, looking particularly clever, a goose egg face with upright facial features is even more delicate, Jia Xuan is a child of a poor family and a child of a rich family compared to her.
"You put it wrong, you didn't put it this way, my mom taught me how to build a snowman." The little girl pouted and looked at He Yan, and the cherry mouth looked particularly cute. Jia Xuan was already fishing for the tenth handful of snow, and was about to pile it on the snowman when the little girl reached out to stop it.
Jia Xuan looked at the little girl, and then asked, "How should I pile it up?" The little girl smiled triumphantly, He Yan didn't know how to pile up, then she could just be a little teacher.
"Well, my mother said that to build a snowman, you have to build a snowman first, and then at the top of the pile, you see that you have built a corner of the snowman." The little girl gently stepped on the snow with a pair of small feet, silently, leaving a small footprint, and her right hand kept waving and pointing at the snowman, which was really a little teacher.
"What's your name? Hello black. The little girl finished instructing, and then squatted at Jia Xuan's feet, looking at Jia Xuan's thin face, her dark skin and said directly, everyone has a taboo childhood, this is childhood, and he will not take it seriously.
"My name is He Yan, and I will be 7 years old after the New Year."
"What is your name, what a strange name, my name is Lu Xinxue, my mother just wants me to be as beautiful as flowers and as white as snow, so she gave me this name." The little girl's name is Lu Xinxue, the beauty of flowers and the whiteness of snow, which seems to have been realized with the little girl.
"Cher, who are you playing with?" A woman is dressed noblely, with a rich and noble atmosphere, wearing gold and silver, a pair of high heels "clicking" in the snow, the face is white and red, the makeup is very thick, and it looks very gorgeous. The woman walked directly to Cher and pulled her up.
"Mom, his name is He Yan." Xue'er introduced Jia Xuan to her mother, and the woman looked at Jia Xuan with very contemptuous eyes, looking poor and sour, her black, yellow and thin face obviously didn't look like a healthy child, and then she hurriedly pulled Xue'er over and whispered: "Xue'er, don't make friends with such a child, be careful if he has any diseases that infect you." He Yan heard the woman's words, his heart was uncomfortable, he had never had a friend since he was a child, he still didn't know what a friend was, the woman pulled Xue'er away, and when she walked far away, Xue'er turned around and waved to He Yan, and then disappeared into the night
