"Nope!" She immediately shook her head, refusing to admit it. Such an amorous idea, if she guesses wrong, then she will have no face.

And her behavior made Old Man Cheng think that she was angry. Angry that they hadn't found her mother for so many years. Angry, they finally found her after her mother died.

His gaze dimmed instantly. He doesn't want to! It's true! So much they never gave up, but it was still too late.

With a slightly wry smile and a slightly pleading tone, he said, "Can you listen to my explanation?" ”

Gu Xiaoyun didn't answer, just waited silently for his statement. She was really interested in hearing his explanation. Dispel this bloody idea sooner. It must not be what she thought it would be! Definitely not!

Old Man Cheng didn't get a response, and became more and more sure that she was really angry. He let out a long sigh. But since she didn't just get up and leave, does it still mean that she is willing to listen to his explanation?

When I think about it, I feel a little better. Slowly began to recall that period, even if decades have passed, but it is still painful to think about it.

Forty years ago, the Cheng family at that time was not what it is today. Mr. Cheng's career has just improved. The conditions at home have gradually improved.

He and his wife already have two sons. One is five years old and the other is three years old. Because the family is relatively wealthy, and the child is very sensible, the two do not feel much pressure.

The improvement in the economy made them wonder if they could have another child. I don't know if the Cheng family's genes are strange. There hasn't been a single girl in recent generations, they're all kids.

Many people may definitely be lucky for them. However, scarcity is expensive. Even in that era when patriarchy was still very serious, when there were boys all around, I couldn't help but yearn to have a well-behaved and sensible daughter. It just so happens that now they have that economic condition, and their children make up a good word. How wonderful!

It didn't take long for Mrs. Cheng to successfully conceive her third child.

Both were delighted. However, as his career became more and more successful, the old man also socialized more and more. I go out early and return late every day, and the time I spend with my wife at home gradually decreases. It was just in time for the time when his wife needed someone to take care of him the most. There was no choice but to spend money to hire a nanny. Let her take good care of his wife while he is away.

Mrs. Cheng is a gentle and considerate woman. She understands that her husband is in a special period in his career. I also feel sorry for his hard work. Under such circumstances, it is good that he can go home every day. So she has no objection to this decision.

One more person to take care of Mrs. Cheng's diet and daily life has also reduced a lot of burden for them. The nanny was from the countryside. She works very diligently, not only takes good care of Mrs. Cheng, but also takes care of her home in an orderly manner.

More than eight months passed in a flash. When Mrs. Cheng's due date was still half a month away, the child was born prematurely due to an accident.

I also encountered dystocia, tossed for three days and three nights, and almost put my life into it. If it weren't for the fact that the Cheng family was rich and hired the best doctor, it is estimated that Mrs. Cheng would not even have the opportunity to look at her daughter.

As a result, their lives were saved, and the two of them also welcomed a little princess as they wished. However, the damage caused by excessive blood loss to the body cannot be recovered in a day or two. She was able to get out of bed for three months after giving birth.

During that time, Mr. Cheng blamed himself very much, and he also reflected deeply. Isn't it just that I want to give myself and my family a better life? Now that my career has achieved a little success, I should care more about my family. How can you keep yourself so busy that you don't even have time to take care of your pregnant wife?

Mrs. Cheng didn't complain, but comforted him not to think about it. She knew all about his contribution to the family.

His wife's kindness and understanding made him feel more and more embarrassed. So, he changed his previous workaholic model. The company hired some more employees to take on a large part of the work for him. He gave himself a strict working time from 10 to 6 o'clock. No longer working overtime every day, many things to take care of his wife are done by himself. The nanny is responsible for the house, cooking for them, and taking care of his wife when he is away.

In this way, life gradually developed in a better direction.

The daughter is very beautiful, and she has a good temperament, and she doesn't cry or make trouble. When you meet people, you will show a sweet smile. The two sons are also very fond of this sister. The family is surprisingly harmonious and happy.

However, such happiness is short-lived after all. When their daughter was two years old, an outing completely changed the lives of each of them.

It was also bloody, and that day would have been a very ordinary day. The nanny took a day off because of something, and the two sons went to school, leaving Mrs. Cheng alone at home. Seeing that the weather was good, coupled with the fact that I had not had much time to go out recently, I decided to take my children out for a walk.

I never thought about it, but I came out of it. When Mr. Cheng saw Mrs. Cheng that day, she was already unconscious in the hospital. The child was gone. No one knows exactly what's going on. The old lady herself has no memory of the events of that day.

After the child was lost, Mrs. Cheng was immersed in self-blame every day. Because of excessive sadness, the already not very good body is getting worse day by day. There seems to be something wrong with the mental side as well.

Looking at his increasingly thin wife, the old man was anxious. At this time, the nanny gave him a suggestion to adopt a daughter, and told the old lady that she could pray for her blessing. Let the old lady have spiritual sustenance. At first he was vehemently opposed. How can their daughters be replaced casually? What's more, both of them are atheists, so naturally they don't think that he can get his daughter by adopting a child. But seeing his wife's situation getting worse day by day. There is really no other way but to be a dead horse and a live horse doctor.

The two eventually went to the orphanage, and by that time the old lady's mental problems were already quite serious. Often in a semi-trance-like state. Sometimes sober and sometimes confused.

But that day was strange to say. Mrs. Cheng, who has always been heartbroken in her own world, actually fell in love with one of the skinny girls at a glance. I asked the director and learned that the girl had been left at the door of the orphanage by her parents when she was two years old.

Thinking about the girl's similar experience to her own daughter, coupled with his wife's liking for her. The two unanimously decided to adopt Cheng Ningxin, who was four and a half years old at the time.
