Chapter 478: My adopted sister returned to her hometown to farm (3)
Fang Jing originally thought that she had thought of all the reasons why Old Lady Yao might refuse her gift, but when she heard Old Lady Yao say that, she was still extremely surprised.
It is rare for an old rural lady who has not received much education to have such insight.
She and her husband exchanged glances quickly. Although she still wanted to adopt Yao Sisi, she felt that if she really did so, it would be too cruel for the old man.
If the person standing in front of you was a "stubborn" old rural lady, it might be easier to deal with her.
However, the understanding and reasonableness shown by Old Lady Yao at this time really surprised them.
"Come on, kid, come in and have a meal before you leave!" Old Lady Yao smiled warmly and said, "We don't have anything special to treat you.
There are only some home-grown vegetables, but fortunately they are clean and fresh! ”
As soon as she finished speaking, without even waiting for the couple to respond, Old Lady Yao turned around and walked unsteadily into the house.
He took out an old cloth bag from the corner, then hurried towards his neighbor's house, ready to buy a chicken to entertain the guests.
Looking at the back of Old Lady Yao leaving, Fang Jing couldn't help but look embarrassed, and turned to her husband and said, "Old Song, this old lady seems to be different from what we originally imagined!
At first, I thought that if I found out that she treated Sisi badly, it would be natural to take Sisi away. But in this situation..."
Song Tao was also very conflicted: "Logically, Sisi will go to kindergarten next year. We should bring her back to the city to adapt for half a year. It's just the right time to send her there."
The two looked at each other, not knowing how to face Old Lady Yao next.
Fang Jing and Song Tao discussed for a while and decided to stay for the time being and see how the situation develops.
Soon, Old Mrs. Yao came back with a chicken and started cooking busily.
The couple helped out and chatted about a lot of family matters during the time.
They learned that although Mrs. Yao's life was hard, she still insisted on letting her granddaughter receive an education.
"It's just that we don't have any good schools here." Old Lady Yao said with some worry, "When her father was young, there were many children in the village, and there was even an elementary school, but in recent years, there have been fewer and fewer young people in the village.
There are only a few children a year, and the original primary school in the village has been merged with several nearby villages. The current school is a bit far from here!"
When it comes to Yao Sisi's schooling, Song Tao finally spoke up: "Aunt, we want to take Sisi to live in the city. Do you think it's okay?"
"Take him to the city?" Old Lady Yao was surprised. "The child is only two years old. Can you take care of him?"
In order to reassure Old Lady Yao, Fang Jing explained, "I have another son at home who is four years older than Sisi. He is just starting elementary school this year. The two children can live together and keep each other company.
Children in the city go to kindergarten when they are about three years old, where they can learn knowledge and play with many peers! "
"Kindergarten!" Old Mrs. Yao looked a little confused. Yao Sisi would indeed not be treated like this here. She remembered that when she went to the city before, she saw children going to kindergarten in the city.
At that time, she thought that when her granddaughter grew up, her daughter-in-law would probably let the child go, but now everything has changed.
Seeing that Old Lady Yao didn't say anything, Song Tao winked at his wife: Let the old lady think about it carefully, things like this always have to be voluntary on the part of the other party.
Fang Jing didn't say anything else, but ate her meal quietly.
Old Mrs. Yao, who was sitting opposite her, hugged Yao Sisi and fed the child mouthful of rice soaked in chicken soup.
The atmosphere of this meal was quite good.
After dinner, Fang Jing and Song Tao sincerely expressed their desire to adopt Yao Sisi.
Old Mrs. Yao was silent for a moment, with a trace of reluctance in her eyes, but she understood that this would be better for Yao Sisi's future, so she agreed.
Two days later, the couple took Yao Sisi and left the small village. Old Mrs. Yao stood at the door, watching them go away, her eyes blurred with tears.
After Song Tao and Fang Jing carried Yao Sisi out of Yao's house, they inadvertently discovered scratches on the wall, and they were new.
At this moment he understood that when Song Tao and Fang Jing were discussing the adoption, Old Lady Yao was probably outside the yard.
It was precisely because they knew about this matter in advance that their adoption was so smooth.
"Xiao Jing, when Sisi grows up, we should bring her back to see her aunt." Song Tao said to his wife Fang Jing, "She is a very insightful person!"
Although Fang Jing didn't know why her husband said that, she agreed.
After Yao Sisi was brought back to the Song family, Song Tao's son Song Yucheng was originally very much looking forward to meeting this younger sister, after all, he had met her several times before.
but
"Mom! Who is this sister?" Song Yucheng couldn't accept it for a moment when he saw Yao Sisi, who had dark skin and wrinkles on her face. "Where is sister Sisi! Did you pick up the wrong person?
My sister is white and tender, different from this one!"
