Why don't you just adopt a child? Where did so many clauses come from. I see that other people's families pick up a child casually, don't they raise it the same?

Niu Wa muttered to herself quietly, with an impatient face.

Zhang Xiaoqin couldn't wait to rush back: "Yes, yes, dean, if there is nothing else, can you take us to see the children now?" ”

"Okay, okay, but before we go through the adoption procedures, we will confirm your situation with the relevant departments." The dean closed the notebook on the table and got up to take them to choose a child.

In those years, the living conditions were not good, coupled with strict family planning, it was difficult to find healthy boys, and healthy girls grabbed a lot of them.

This welfare home is overcrowded, and the director is looking forward to the people who come to adopt, so these people who come to adopt, the director is regarded as a guest.

"Yes, we are not in a hurry to adopt the formalities, we will go and choose the child first. It's good to settle things down first, and cultivate feelings with your children first. ”

Zhang Xiaoqin spoke very smoothly, and the dean listened happily and couldn't close his mouth with a smile.

The two followed the dean to the courtyard where the children were playing, and the dean called his assistant to call the children to him. Stand in front of them in a line like in a gym class.

Men and women, tall and short, stood in two long rows. There are eye problems, there are problems with legs and feet, and of course, there are many children with sound limbs and everything is normal.

The dean clapped his hands and said to the children in a very amiable tone, "Children, call people quickly." ”

"Hello uncle! Hello Auntie! The children shouted in unison, and it could be seen that the welfare home had disciplined them well.

Zhang Xiaoqin looked at and listened to these immature voices, looking at these lovely smiling faces, her heart was beautiful.

"Hello, Auntie bought you some candy, and I'll share it with everyone." She took the candy from the cow baby, walked over to the children, and handed them the candy in the bag.

After handing out the candy, she returned to the dean and said with a smile, "Hello kids! Dean, these kids are so cute! ”

"Yes! I don't know why their parents were so cruel and abandoned them. Well, you guys take your pick! Once you have chosen our side, we will help you go through the procedures as soon as possible. ”

"Say! Thank you, Dean. Zhang Xiaoqin turned to Niu Wa and winked at her, urging him to hurry up and find out Fu Jiaorong, "Wood, what are you doing stunned?" Don't go ahead and pick it yet. ”

Niu Wa stumbled up to the children and began to look for Fu Jiaorong's figure.

These kids, like the goods, stand there waiting for the buyer to pick them up.

Niu Wa circled around the children, but did not find Fu Jiaorong's shadow, he thought he had seen it wrong, and went back and continued to look for it, but to no avail.

He returned to Zhang Xiaoqin's side dejectedly, and shook his head at Zhang Xiaoqin with a frown.

Zhang Xiaoqin lowered her voice and asked urgently: "What do you mean by shaking your head?" ”

The dean saw that Niu Wa's expression was wrong, and also asked, "What's the matter, I didn't choose the one I was satisfied with?" ”

"This ...... Don't ......" Niu Wa was hesitant and didn't know how to answer the dean's words.

"These children are all smart and wise, you can rest assured, they are all worry-free children. Of course, these are also poor children, and by adopting them, you are not only fulfilling your parents' wishes, but also doing good deeds. ”

The dean kept saying good things on the side, she was worried that Niu Wa and they wouldn't get along.

"Are you talking?" Shumei was so anxious that she was about to go crazy, and asked Niu Wa with a frown.

Niu Wa hesitated, "This ......"

Zhang Xiaoqin saw that he had something unspeakable, turned around and squeezed out an embarrassed smile and said to the dean: "Dean, let's discuss." ”

The dean thought thoughtfully for a moment and returned, "Okay, this is not a trivial matter, and it can't be too hasty, you can discuss it carefully and think clearly before deciding." ”

Zhang Xiaoqin hurriedly pulled the cow baby aside, panting angrily.

"What's the matter with you? asked you to find your daughter, what are you grinding and chirping? If I knew, it would be your turn to be here to grind. ”

"No, there's no Jiao Rong here."

"What? No? How could there not be? Did you send her to this orphanage? ”

"Yes, of course, didn't I come to see it six months ago? She's fine here, but today there is no one of them. ”

Zhang Xiaoqin muttered to herself thoughtfully, "Could it be that she was sick, so she didn't come out...... Or be ...... ...... was taken away."

She was so anxious that she ran to the dean and asked urgently, "Is all the children in the courtyard and welfare home here?" ”

The dean moved his gaze to the assistant on the side, and gestured to her with his eyes, and the assistant hurried back, "Dean, all the children are here, and there are no more than one." ”

"It's all here? It's impossible to ......" Zhang Xiaoqin looked depressed, and quickly dragged Niu Wa over and dragged him to the dean, "Quickly describe to the dean, what does the child look like." ”

Niu Wa resignedly described to the dean, "It's a girl with a little dark skin, small eyes, and almost this tall, about four or five years old." ”

"Dean, where has this girl gone? Did you know? Zhang Xiaoqin hurriedly echoed and asked.

"No, that's how you describe it, there are so many children coming in and out, we can't remember which child it is for a while! Do you have to adopt that child? ”

Zhang Xiaoqin was so anxious that she spun around in place, muttering to herself, "What should I do?" What to do? ”

Niu Wa stood next to her in fear, and she didn't dare to take a breath.

If only he could come and see the child every once in a while, he wouldn't be unable to find it, even if it was once a month! Now it's okay, the child is gone, and Zhang Xiaoqin still doesn't pull out his skin.

"Dean, you should have a group photo here, or a picture of each child, right?"

"Of course, we have made careful records for each child, and we have taken group photos of some activities on a regular basis."

"Can you show us there?"

The dean was stunned for a moment, then responded with a smile, "Of course, you can come with me." ”

They came to a room that resembled an exhibition room, with a pair of children's photographs hanging on the wall.

The dean was there to carefully introduce the story behind each photo, and Zhang Xiaoqin followed behind with a smile.

Niu Wa, under the command of Zhang Xiaoqin's eyes, looked for Fu Jiaorong's figure in many photos.

"Found it, found ......"

He let out a loud roar that interrupted the dean's words. Zhang Xiaoqin also ran over excitedly and looked at Fu Jiaorong who was pointed at Niu Wa.

When she left, Fu Jiaorong was still in swaddling clothes, but she didn't expect to say goodbye, she was already such a big little girl.

The face on the wall was unfamiliar to Zhang Xiaoqin, but she could feel the intimacy from that face and the feeling of worrying about her stomach.

"Dean, this is this little girl, where is she now?"

"So you want to adopt a little pimple! She! It's really unfortunate that I was just taken away by a couple the day before yesterday, and I should be afraid that I am already abroad at this moment. Don't say it, this little girl has a really good life, and the couple was originally going to adopt another child. It was she who saw that the couple's shiny leather shoes were dirty, and took the initiative to kneel on the ground to shine their shoes. The couple thought she was well-behaved and sensible, so they temporarily changed their minds and adopted her. She guessed that she wanted to have a home too much, and every time someone came to adopt, she would change her ways to please them, and that time she finally got her wish. ”

The dean touched the photo of Fu Jiaorong on the wall and told it sincerely.

Zhang Xiaoqin listened carefully to the dean's words, her heart was sour, and tears were squeezed out of her eyes.

"Dean, how can you find them, do you have the couple's contact address here?" Zhang Xiaoqin was a little excited.

"Yes, yes, but only domestic, and now they have emigrated abroad, and they have not left their address over there. No, why do you have to adopt this little pimple? ”

"Dean, let me tell you the truth, that is my own daughter, who was forced to send her here because of some unavoidable hardships. Dean, I beg you, be considerate of me as a mother, and tell me where they are. Please......"

Zhang Xiaoqin grabbed the dean's arm and cried in a tone that was almost pleading.

"It's not that I won't tell you, it's that I really don't know! If you really want to find them, try your luck abroad! It's just that this sea of people is vast, and if you want to find a couple who have immigrants, I'm afraid you'll ...... It's not that easy, either. ”

"Then you can always tell me which country they moved to, right?"

The dean shook her head helplessly, and with this shaking of her head, the only hope in Zhang Xiaoqin's heart was all wiped out.

She had thought that if she knew which country they had gone to, she would be able to travel across the ocean to find them, but now, nothing was possible.

In fact, even if she knew which country they were in, what could she do, with her current physical condition, I am afraid that she would go to see Lord Yama before she found Fu Jiaorong and them.

She was like a frosted eggplant, completely gone.

It was she, who loved vanity and greedy for lustful pleasures, that made her daughter homeless, so that she is now drifting to a foreign land. From now on, she may never return to the land where she was born.

At this moment, she is completely loveless.

This is called God has eyes! Good is rewarded with good, evil is rewarded with evil, it's not that it is not repaid, the time has not yet come.

Only now did she know how to write the word regret.

What a complete family she had at the beginning, two well-behaved sons, a hard-working husband, and a pair of in-laws who let her handle it. Life is a little harder, but three meals a day, food, clothing, housing and transportation can still be guaranteed, and all the money in the family is in her hands, Jiang Fu never stingy with how she spends it.

But why was he blind at the beginning, his eyes were above the top, and he had to think that the sparrow flew on the branch and became a phoenix, and as a result, he fell to pieces.

In addition to regretting not being at the beginning, she still regrets not being at the beginning. But the dust has settled, and there is no turning back.

The days when she was noisy with Jiang Fu and the chickens and dogs jumped have become her best memories until now.
