Chapter 333: Chapter 333: Making Up for Regret
Yuan Liangang exchanged a glance with Du Hong before she asked Xia Chuyi, “Chuyi, have you thought it through?”
Xia Chuyi nodded, “Mmhmm.”
The Ou Family supported the orphanage as if to make ands or to pray for blessings, so she believed that sending Wuniu there would definitely ensure she received good care.
However, Wuniu was her disciple in her past life, and being able to et her in advance was their fate. Xia Chuyi didn’t really want to send her to the orphanage.
After so thought, Du Hong said to Yuan Liangang, “Since that’s the case, Xiao Yi’s dad, could you please speak to Captain Ou for Chuyi?”
Yuan Liangang didn’t quite understand Xia Chuyi’s thoughts, but since his wife had spoken, he could only listen.
“Alright, I’ll speak to Deputy Ou about this, but I can’t guarantee he’ll agree to et with you,” Yuan Liangang said sowhat helplessly.
“Thank you, brother-in-law!” Xia Chuyi smiled at him.
After seeing Yuan Liangang off, Xia Chuyi squatted down and gently asked Wuniu, “Wuniu, if Auntie adopts you, would you agree?”
When Wuniu heard “Auntie,” she was puzzled for a mont and asked, “Sister? Auntie?”
She looked at her then glanced at Du Hong.
“Cough cough, I’m talking about ,” Xia Chuyi hurriedly explained.
Wuniu was her disciple, and Xia Chuyi simply couldn’t bring herself to call her “sister,” so she had to say auntie, which led to Wuniu’s misunderstanding.
Hearing Xia Chuyi’s words, joy shimred swiftly in Wuniu’s eyes.
But then quickly, she looked towards Silly and asked, “Sister, what about Silly?”
In Wuniu’s eyes, she was “sister.”
Well, for now, Xia Chuyi decided to just thick-skinnedly be the “sister.”
Silly, hearing his na ntioned, looked at Wuniu and then at Xia Chuyi before suddenly grinning broadly, smiling goofily, and calling out, “Sister.”
Xia Chuyi looked towards Silly.
The child didn’t seem to be actually foolish, but rely slow to respond.
Wuniu was sold because she wasn’t a boy, and Silly was sold because he was slow of mind – both were pitiable children.
After careful consideration, Xia Chuyi said, “If Chief Ou agrees, you both can stay with .”
Seeing that she wanted to adopt both children, Du Hong shook her head and said, “Chuyi, your heart is just too soft.”
Too soft?
Xia Chuyi thought to herself, Maybe so.
But the reason she wanted to adopt Wuniu was to make up for the regrets of her past life.
As for Silly…
Honestly, up until now, she was still not sure if the dicine she used would have any effects on the children, especially on Silly – he was inherently incomplete.
Xia Chuyi smiled and said, “Sister Hong, just think of it as the children and I being fated.”
Being locked up together was indeed fate.
She rembered a Heavenly Book Recipe for treating conditions like Silly’s, so she planned to first adopt Silly and nurse his health, to see if she could cure him to so extent.
If he couldn’t be cured, then she would simply take care of him; after all, he was quite well-behaved and didn’t cause trouble.
If he did improve, being a boy, it would likely not be difficult to find a good family to adopt him later on.
Seeing her mind made up, Du Hong ultimately said nothing more.
Soon, the doctor notified Xia Chuyi and the three children to have their physical examinations.
After the check-up, the doctor told them to return to their ward and wait for the results.
During this ti, knowing that Xia Chuyi wanted to adopt her, Wuniu constantly held onto Silly’s hand, sticking close to her side.
Xiao Yi found it amusing and also gathered around her to play, making Du Hong alternately laugh and cry.
