Chapter 26: Cultivating a Young Daughter-in-Law

  Lin Wan's face showed a hint of relief.

  She knew that the little rascal was stubborn but had a soft heart, and she knew that if something happened to the Jiang family, he would definitely agree to let her adopt Yuan Yuan.

  Although Stinky Tofu disagreed with her, she would still do it. She was a democratic mother who hoped that the children in the house could get along harmoniously and love each other.

  What's more, she also needs Xiaozi to help her coax people.

  "Yuanyuan likes you, she's still young and her parents just passed away, so she must be very scared. Mom wants you to spend more time with her when you're free. We want her to feel the love from all of us, we want her to know that even though her dad and mom are gone, the people who love her won't decrease."

  "I know!" Xu Jiayan replied calmly.

  Lin Wan: "Alright then, it's settled. From now on, Yuan Yuan is in your care."

  "Huh?" Xu Jiayan furrowed his brow, "Why hand it over to me to take care of?"

  Wasn't she the one who was supposed to be adopted?

  Lin Wan smiled: "I think Yuan Yuan likes your care more."

  Hah!

  Xu Jia Yan said with a bad tone: "Why don't you just let me raise it?"

  Lin Wan: "If you're willing, that's best."

  Raising a young wife is lovely, just thinking about it makes me feel affectionate.

  Xu Jia Yan's face turned black as he refused: "Don't even think about it!" Don't assume he couldn't see what the other person was thinking.

  ——

  The funeral was arranged by Lin and his wife together with the two elderly members of the Song family. As for the Jiang family, it is said that the two elderly members of the Jiang family had already passed away.

  At the funeral.

  The little girl remained quiet and still, neither crying nor making a fuss, which was heart-wrenching to see.

  The Song family's two elderly members had originally planned to take Jiang Yu back with them to care for him, but considering their advanced age and poor health, Lin Wan directly proposed adopting Jiang Yu after the funeral.

  The two elders also knew their own situation and could see that the Xu family was genuinely willing to adopt the little girl. They understood in their hearts that it would be better for the little girl to stay with the Xu family, so they finally agreed to let her stay.

  Two old men lived in a small county town next to the city. Before leaving, the old lady held the little girl's hand and tearfully reminded her: "Yuan Yuan, do you know that you must listen to Uncle Xu and Auntie Lin Wan? Your Auntie Lin Wan's family are all good people, when you live with them, be obedient and don't cause trouble for them, do you understand?"

  "How old is she? What's the point of telling her these things?" The old man interrupted her with a stern face, looking displeased.

  The old lady wiped away her tears and said: "I'm doing this for Yuan's own good, aren't I? She's still so young, but she has to be sent to live with others..."

  "Alright, if you're still worried, just take it back and bring it yourself."

  The old lady opened her mouth, she wasn't unwilling to take the child back, but how many more years could their bodies take care of this child? She knew that staying was best for her, and finally patted her head, swallowing all the words behind.

  The old couple had only one daughter all their lives, but in the end, it was a case of the white-haired (old) sending off the black-haired (young).

  Staring at the child left behind by his only daughter, the old man's face, which had been stern for a lifetime, rarely showed a hint of guilt. However, he, who was really not used to speaking softly, only said one sentence after a long while, "If you've suffered any grievances, come back."

  On the other hand, Lin Wan was also reminding the two little brats at home.

  "From now on, Yuan Yuan is one of us, you two must take care of her like a younger sister, and neither of you is allowed to bully her, do you understand?"

  Xu Jia Yan had no objection as long as he wasn't asked to be a daughter-in-law.

  As for Xu Jin, he clearly knew his family status and that opposing it would be useless. Upon hearing this, he patted his chest with a very knowing look and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of my sister."
