The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

   Chapter 240 241 Adoption

  Li Yu thought of the child and said, "Have the relatives of the child sent by Tu Dianshi been found? How do you plan to settle the child?"

   "Mr. Tu took someone to arrange the funeral of the grandson and grandson, and he may not be back until later."

   "Okay! Go ahead!"

   Li Yu sent Zhou Jia away and went to the front yard. Xiaoyu and Yuniang were sitting on the kang making cotton jackets for the child, and the child and Qijin were sleeping soundly on the kang. When several people saw Li Yu coming in, they hurriedly stood up and saluted. Li Yu whispered, "Tu Dianshi went to the funeral of that child's grandmother and brother, and may not be back until later!"

   Yuniang hesitated for a moment, looked at Li Yu and said, "Madam, if no one adopts this child, can you raise it for me?"

  Li Yu looked at Yu Niang's firm eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "If this child is not adopted and you think about it, I will tell the adults."

   "Sister Yu Niang, you adopted this child, you don't want to marry?" Xiaoyu looked at Yu Niang with a look of surprise.

Yu Niang smiled bitterly and said, "I have no plans to marry a long time ago. If it wasn't for my wife, I wouldn't even have the courage to live." Xiao Yu thought of Yu Niang's experience after hearing this, and held Li Yu with pity. hand.

Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Liu looked at the children on the kang and said to Yu Niang: "Yu Niang, the three of us are all lonely and helpless people. It is all thanks to the good-hearted madam and the master who took us in, and we have a place to live. Live a stable life. Yuniang, if the relatives of this child do not want to raise him, we will help you raise them together."

   Yuniang said strangely: "Tu Dianshi hasn't come back yet! Don't be happy at that time." Li Yu turned around and walked out: "That's what Yuniang said, you should hurry up and get your child's clothes ready."

   As soon as he went out, he saw Ruyi carrying a large bag, walking towards the yard, and when he saw Li Yu put down the bag, he was about to salute.

  Li Yu said with a smile: "Don't be too polite, I see that you are in the dust, your Xiaoyu is still here waiting for you to come back!" Xiaoyu heard the wishful voice in the room, and still pulled her shoes and ran out.

  Li Yu looked at Xiaoyu and said with a joking smile: "The hard work pays off. After waiting for a few days, today is finally here, let's go eat something to warm up."

  Ruyi watched Xiaoyu pull her shoes and said with a blushing face, "You don't wear the shoes properly, so be careful to fall." Xiaoyu looked at Ruyi with joy: "It's not because of the snow these days, people are a little worried!"

  Li Yu saw the blushing faces of the two and went back to the backyard with a smile.

Ruyi cleaned up and went to the backyard, and reported to Li Yuqi: "Madam, as soon as the corn was handed over to Shopkeeper Chu, he hurriedly sent someone to take it to Kyoto. Shopkeeper Chu also said that in the future, our shop does not need to go to Qingzhou to purchase goods, he It will be delivered to us in a while.”

  Li Yu shook his head and said, "It's not too much trouble for others. Besides, it's not a one or two thing. It's been a long time, so why bother them like this."

Ruyi knew that Li Yu didn't like to owe too much favor, "I also refused at the time, but the shopkeeper Chu said that they wanted to pay General Zhong Can to the army, and they could cover up the delivery for us. We were helping them. He said that with the consent of you and the master, Manager Chu agreed to let me come back to ask you and bring him a letter."

   Li Yu said with a smile: "Everyone has made excuses to help us, and if you refuse, you won't know what to do. Promise them!"

   "Yes, ma'am." Ruyi bowed and stepped back.

Tu Dianshi returned to the yamen angrily, and reported to Zhou Jiaxi: "The family's surname is Yang, and there is a distant relative who is unwilling to adopt him, saying that his life is tough and he will die as soon as he is born. His mother, his father died not long ago, and now his grandmother and brother are also dead, and he is also said to be a lonely star, whoever messes with him will be unlucky! Ignorance!"

   Even without these, no one would want to raise that child! Zhou Jia frowned and said, "Then how are you going to settle this child?"

   "That family is already a poor family, and I paid the money for the coffin in advance. There are still two acres of thin fields and the old house." Tu Dianshi spread his hands, "Alas! The child really doesn't know how to arrange it?"

   "You go and tell your wife about this first, and I have something to discuss with you when I come back."

   Tu Dianshi's eyes lit up: "Yes! Madam must have a way, my lord, I'll step back first."

Tu Dianshi hurriedly went to the Houya, and explained the situation of the Yang family to Li Yu: "Madam, there is no such thing as a lonely star, those people are ignorant, please help me find a way to settle the child! "

   Li Yu smiled and said: "Tu Dianshi, don't worry, Mother Yu wants to adopt that child, you go to the front yard and talk to her."

   Tu Dianshi happily cupped his hands and said, "I knew Madam had a solution here, so I went to find Miss Yu." Li Yu waved his hands and said, "Go!"

  Niang Yu heard Mr. Tu tell about the child's life experience, and said, "I am also a miserable person. I am not afraid that he will beat me, and I am willing to adopt him."

Tu Dian Shi praised: "Miss Jade is really chivalrous and heartfelt, this child will save a lot of trouble without the clan, I will go through the formalities for you now, there is an old mansion at the child's house, two acres of thin fields, you see it is sold Do you keep it for the children?"

Yu Niang shook her head and said, "Tu Dianshi, where do you sell me and the child to live? Although I am not afraid that I will be kidnapped by the child, but I am afraid that the child living in the county government office will affect the wife, I plan to move out from the county government office first to live in the Yang family. go."

After hearing this, Tu Dianshi shook his head and said, "I think it's better for you to live in the county government first. Madam is not an ignorant woman, so she won't have these taboos. Besides, you are a beautiful woman with a child alone. Are not you afraid?"

   Yu Niang still felt that she couldn't continue to live in the county government office: "I know that my wife is not taboo, but I can't be ignorant. Besides, my wife is about to give birth, so be careful."

   Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Zhang also felt that Yuniang was right, and smiled: "Tu Dianshi, you let the Yachai often visit Yang's house. Who else dares to attack Yuniang?"

  Tu Dianshi saw that Yu Niang insisted on doing this, nodded and said: "Okay! You and Madam agree, I will let the yamen come to move you."

Yu Niang and Tu Dianshi went to the backyard to find Li Yu to share their thoughts, Li Yu smiled nonchalantly: "Yu Niang, you don't have to worry about this, even if there is something, you can still rely on the magistrate's aura. Are you afraid you won't be able to hold back?"

Yu Niang looked at Li Yu and said with sincerity, "Madam, I'm afraid, but who can tell these things clearly? Although I like that child, compared to your safety, I would rather not adopt him. ."

  Li Yu had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay."

   Yuniang knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you madam."

  Li Yu instructed Tu Dianshi, who was beside Hou Yi, "Mr. trouble to repair the Yang family's house, and help prepare the courtyard wall and some household utensils. I will pay for the silver taels needed."

   "Yes, ma'am." Yuniang and Tu Dianshi retreated and left one after another.
