Chapter 138: I Have an Idea
Also cousin!
Tao Ran sneered, one surnamed Li and the other surnamed Tao, which cousin is this?
He also told him that his dad had an accident, fart! His dad is just looking for grandma, he must be fine, and dad will definitely come back to pick him up and his sister.
Tao Ran was too lazy to talk nonsense with the two liars here, he turned around and left with a cold face, not even looking at the photo that Chen Xinchun had just taken out to prove his identity.
"Child, listen to me" Chen Xinchun couldn't hold back.
Chen Xinchun watched him walk away in amazement, and he couldn't feel Tao Ran's rejection of them.
Li Xia naturally felt it, and she also saw Tao Ran's slightly shrugged shoulders after turning around, as well as his vigorous action of wiping away his tears.
"Grandpa, you go back and rest first, I'll talk to him." Li Xia looked at the weather and felt that it was about to rain.
Chen Xinchun can rest assured, but with his identity, Tao Ran is too disgusted with him, Li Xia is not much older than him, and it may be easier for him to open up to Li Xia.
After sending Chen Xinchun on the bus, Li Xia went to find Tao Ran, and just saw him holding a snakeskin bag, which should be picking up rags nearby.
After looking for a while, Li Xia really found Tao Ran who was rummaging in the garbage heap with a stick.
Seeing her coming, Tao Ran's face was indifferent.
"Tao Ran, do you hate grandma?" Li Xia followed him and asked him, Tao Ran ignored her, and she continued, "If it weren't for Grandma's disappearance, your father insisted on finding her old man's home, and your parents wouldn't have divorced." ”
"If you don't get divorced, your mother won't remarry, she won't send you to relatives, and you will be separated from your sister."
"Or do you hate your father?"
"Shut up!" Tao Ran turned his eyes with red eyes and glared at Li Xia fiercely, "You don't know anything, don't talk nonsense here!" ”
He was holding a garbage turning stick in his hand, and he had the intention of beating people when Li Xia opened his mouth again.
Li Xia looked at him, "It's not good to send people under the fence, you are a boy, and you are sending a closer relative, but what about your sister?" ”
“!” Tao Ran's eyes became even redder, and his hand holding the stick trembled a little, but he didn't fight for a long time.
Li Xia sighed, "I don't know if you picked up the rags for your own tuition to live, or if you were forced by your relatives to do these handovers, or to save money to pick up your sister, but if you pick it up like this, when will you be able to pick it up?" ”
Tao Ran put down his stick dejectedly, turned around stubbornly, and did not respond to Li Xia's words.
"You take your sister with us, I can't promise you anything else, but at least I can guarantee that there will be no pressure in life until you become adults." Richard still followed him.
Tao Ran was unmoved.
"Even if you're not thinking about yourself, don't you think about your sister?" Li Xia knew that in Tao Ran's heart, the biggest weakness now was Tao Tao.
"Liu Yongde will have his own children soon, have you ever thought about what kind of life Tao Tao will live in the future? You're going to take Tao Tao over, do you think the relatives who take you in now will agree? ”
Tao Ran's hand holding the stick was tense, but he was still silent and didn't say a word.
Li Xia said everything he could say, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he turned off his voice and followed Tao Ran silently, helping him pick up the waste he needed from time to time.
He refused to ask for it, so Li Xia used the broken pocket he had picked up.
It wasn't until noon that Tao Ran was about to go back to his secret base before he turned around and asked Li Xia, "How long are you going to follow me?" ”
It's good to be willing to take the initiative to speak, but I'm afraid that he will keep silent.
"When you think about it and give me a clear answer." Li Xia looked at Tao Ran, "Grandpa and I came this time to pick you up, but we respect your decision, and if you want to stay here, we have no opinion." ”
Hearing Li Xia say that if he stayed here, she would send her tuition and living expenses regularly, Tao Ran wanted to laugh a little.
His mother often doesn't remember him and his sister, and the cost of living is always delayed, why are these two outsiders so good to them?
"It's okay if you don't want to go, but this time, I must take Tao Tao with me." Li Xia originally thought that if Tao Tao cultivated a relationship with the adopted family, it would be a big deal for her to give the other party some more money and let the other party promise not to send Tao Tao away.
But adoptive parents like Liu Yongde should stay away as soon as possible.
Tao Ran fell silent, "My grandmother was confused before, and now it must be more serious, why do you have to take us away, why are you treating us well?" ”
have to bear the living expenses and tuition fees, it should be good for them, Tao Ran doesn't think that he has anything they can do, and they don't even have the need to find it at all.
I deliberately came here to add two burdens to myself.
Even his own mother can't be trusted, can there be such a fool in this world?
And, "If you can find us now, why don't you find us sooner." ”
If it had been earlier, they would have been a happy family of five.
Why come so late?
"Since you know that grandma is confused, you should know how much trouble it took us to find it." Of course, Li Xia would not say that if it were not for her rebirth, their fate in this life would probably be the same as in the previous life.
Li Xia told Tao Ran carefully about Grandma Hu's encounter with Chen Xinchun after she went missing, "It's not that we don't want to come early, it's that it takes time to find someone." ”
Tao Ran was silent, his mind was very messy now, "Don't follow me, let me think for myself." ”
Li Xia nodded, told Tao Ran the address of the guest house where they were living now, turned around and did not leave directly, but went around to another place to inquire about Tao Ran's situation here.
She guessed correctly, Chen Fengying handed over Tao Ran to Tao Ran's cousin, and she would give some living expenses every month.
My cousin has no sons in the family, only two daughters, and she was still good to Tao Ran at the beginning, she was too good to say, and she was not bad for eating and drinking.
Tao Ran went to a school for the children of a textile factory, and his academic performance was very average, and he often picked up rags in the neighborhood for money.
For this matter, his cousin's family also made trouble, and felt that Tao Ran was so embarrassed, it seemed that they had treated him badly, and they also found Chen Fengying.
But Tao Ran was beaten up by Chen Fengying, but he still insisted on picking up the rags, and after a long time, no one cared about him, but he tossed like this, and his cousin's family was also a lot unfamiliar with him.
After inquiring about all this, Li Xia simply ate something outside and went back to the guest house.
Chen Xinchun didn't have to eat at noon, so he called home and learned that the situation at home was good, and his mood was slightly better.
"Are you back, have you eaten? I left you food on the stove in the cafeteria, and I will go down and get it for you. Seeing Li Xia coming back, Chen Xinchun immediately greeted him.
Li Xia hurriedly waved his hand, "I ate some on the way." ”
After sitting down, Li Xia told Chen Xinchun about Tao Tao's situation, "Tao Tao, I must take it back, Tao Ran is old after all, it depends on his own thoughts." ”
It's just that they made a fuss, Chen Fengying didn't want to give Tao Tao to them, and Li Xia was also ready to use other means to force Chen Fengying to agree.
Although this possibility is very small, it is necessary to guard against the possibility of Chen Fengying taking the opportunity to make a request.
"That's right." Chen Xinchun nodded, "But if you can, it's best to let their brother and sister together, we have to try to convince Tao Ran." ”
Richard also had this idea.
After communicating with Chen Xinchun about the news she heard today, Li Xia rested for a while and went out again, she had to go to the hospital to inquire about the situation of Chen Fengying and her husband Dr. Sun.
It was much easier to inquire about the doctor's condition than to inquire about the situation of the two children, and Li Xia didn't have to make any other excuses, so she walked around the hospital and inquired about the matter.
Dr. Sun's full name is Sun Zhiyong, a doctor in the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, who joined this unit after graduation and has been working for more than ten years now, and all his interpersonal relationships are here.
In this case, he will care more about reputation.
As for Chen Fengying, Li Xia originally thought that she was doing logistics work in the hospital, but she didn't expect her to be a nurse in the hospital, and Sun Zhiyong should have arranged for her to find a relationship.
But is being a nurse so easy? Don't you need to pass the assessment?
Before Chen Fengying remarried Sun Zhiyong, she was an ordinary housewife with a low education.
Li Xia felt that there must be an article here, and silently wrote down the matter.
Sure enough, when she found a nurse who had changed her clothes and was about to get off work to inquire, she found out that Chen Fengying's business level was not up to par, the patient didn't know much about those ways, and she didn't dare to blame the nurse if she was pricked, she couldn't help it, but the nurses didn't look at Chen Fengying much.
Li Xia also inquired that Chen Fengying had a very bad relationship with the head nurse of the Chinese medicine department.
"Don't say these things, even if you do, don't say that I told you." The little nurse who told Li Xia these little secrets regretted it a little.
But Li Xia had a sweet mouth, and said that there was a patient at home who wanted to see a doctor, and wanted to know in advance which nurse was more responsible for this, and said that relatives said not to look for Nurse Chen, and asked her why.
She usually has friction with Chen Fengying at work, and she actually has a lot of dissatisfaction in her heart, so she didn't hold back for a while, so she said.
But after thinking about it, in fact, this is good, the patient's illness itself is very painful, and there is no need to be tortured in Chen Fengying's hands anymore.
"If you want an injection, find our head nurse, she has very good skills and doesn't hurt." The little nurse enthusiastically recommended them to Li Xia as the head nurse.
Li Xia nodded, "Thank you very much, if you hadn't told me this, my grandmother wouldn't have known how much she would have to suffer." ”
If you want to make up that someone in your family is sick, Li Xia doesn't have any psychological burden to make up Huang Sizhen.
Li Xia is still a little superstitious, and she always feels that making up such a lie has the meaning of cursing her family, but when she says Huang Sizhen or Yang Wangxiang, she doesn't feel anything at all.
"The old man is getting older, and you want to drive a little too." The little nurse comforted Li Xia softly.
Li Xia sighed, "I hope my grandma can make it to the hospital." ”
Fortunately, whether it is the family that adopted Tao Tao or Chen Fengying herself, they are both dual-income public families, and it is impossible for them to affect their work for Tao Tao's brothers and sisters.
There is a great hope that Li Xia will pick them up.
Tao Ran didn't pick up the rags again in the afternoon, he was so confused in his heart that he simply stayed at the secret base for half an afternoon, and when it was time for dinner, he stepped back.
"Tao Ran, you're picking up the rags again!" As soon as the eldest cousin saw Tao Ran enter the door, she frowned and asked.
Tao Ran glanced at her, didn't say anything, silently went to wash her hands, and went to the kitchen to help her cousin who was cooking pick vegetables.
"I'm talking to you, you're dumb!" The eldest cousin followed up, her face full of displeasure, "Mom, can you take care of him, he runs to rummage through the garbage every day, and he also rummages around his home, which makes me die of shame." ”
The cousin glanced at the silent Tao Ran helplessly, and then looked at her daughter, "Okay, you don't have to say a word." ”
At first, her cousin was also very angry at Tao Ran's behavior, but after knowing that Tao Ran was saving money to buy clothes and snacks for Tao Tao, she fell silent.
The conditions of their family are average, and they can adopt Tao Ran, also because Chen Fengying gives some living expenses from time to time, and the tuition fee is also paid by Chen Fengying, and she can just take care of the children and eat a mouthful.
If you raise one more Tao Tao, not to mention that your husband will not agree, even if you have this condition at home, you really can't afford it.
The child is pitiful, but she is also really powerless.
The eldest cousin saw that her mother was defending Tao Ran again, so she was so angry that she stomped her feet, "You just protect him, he is a white-eyed wolf who can't be raised, and when Dad comes back, I'll tell Dad to go!" ”
After saying that, the eldest cousin shook his hand and left.
"Xiao Ran, your sister is not sensible, don't take it to heart." The cousin was silent for a while, but she still comforted Tao Ran.
She has no choice, she protects Tao Ran, her husband is not happy, and her daughter also feels wronged, but if she doesn't protect Tao Ran, this child is really pitiful.
Tao Ran smiled at her cousin, "Aunt, I'm fine." ”
The eldest cousin is nothing, his cousin's cold violence hurts people, Tao Ran pursed his lips, thinking of what Li Xia said to him today.
Liu Yongde's wife is pregnant.
He didn't know anything about this, after all, every time he went to look for Tao Tao, he waited for Tao Tao to go out before he stepped forward to see Tao Tao.
He had never entered the door of Liu's house, and he had never seen Liu Yongde's wife much.
Tao Ran had a touch of ruthlessness in his heart, if he had known earlier, he would definitely not let this child land safely.
My sister's life is not good, Tao Ran knows it, and he has always wanted to take his sister out, but he knows that this is not realistic.
Since the year before last, he led his sister to beg his mother, and was finally sent away by each other, Tao Ran died of this heart.
At least he has to wait for him to work before there is hope.
But if his sister was taken away by his grandfather and cousin, Tao Ran was even more worried.
Although they have nothing to gain, who knows if the other party has some bad idea, maybe it is human traffickers who trick them out and sell them.
Even their own mother is not good to them, can they count on outsiders who are not related by blood?
Tao Ran didn't think about leaving his cousin's house, his cousin was very good to him, he had to repay her, anyway, he also told his cousin early in the morning, and when he finished elementary school, he would go out to work.
Now that he has a salary, it's not too late for him to take his sister out.
Thinking like this, Tao Ran already had an idea in his heart, since he didn't plan to let his sister go, then Liu Yongde and his wife must not have their own children.
