Entering July, Liu Gen's college life on campus is coming to an end in the first academic year. Other students have begun to review nervously for exams. However, Liu Gen was inspired by Xiao Xiao and no longer stayed up late for every subject. Anatomy was his main course, and the rest were
, as long as you can get credits if you pass.
The financial audit of the student union ended at the end of June. What confused Yanagi and his supportive classmates was that the accounts were even. However, the income and expenditure details were disclosed to all teachers and students in the school, which won the approval of the vast majority of students. Yanagi
He was also elected by the student union as the main person in charge of welcoming new students in the next academic year.
After taking the exam, Liu Gen will go with the school team to several provinces and cities to participate in the Universiade football rematch. He must do two things before leaving Nanhai.
There is only one person who can help him solve these two things, and that person is Li Jiahe.
After all, Han Xue was still a child, and she seemed to have quickly forgotten the grief of the blind grandpa Han Gui. Under the care of Ouyang Xue and Liu Gen, not only could she basically communicate and speak normally with people, but she also gained weight, had a rosy complexion, and had beautiful hair.
Liu Gen is no longer as withered and yellow as when she first met her. The university campus has become her best playground, and she has become good friends with several children in the faculty and staff family area.
For Shiweitian's business, since taking over the Xiaolongbaozi store next door, Chen Hao has negotiated takeout services in two more office buildings. The turnover has doubled compared to the past. In order to open a branch, he has also hired more than a dozen clerks and
chef.
On a Monday morning, Liu Gen called Li Jiahe in advance to make an appointment and took Han Xue to the Jiahe Group headquarters in Jiahe Building.
"This is..." Li Jiahe saw Liu Gen bringing a cute little girl to his office. He smiled and knelt down and asked, "What's your name?"
Han Xue had never been to such a place. Not everyone could enter Li Jiahe's office casually. It was his secretary, Zhang Qingyun, whom Liu Gen knew, who brought him and Han Xue in. Han Xue looked a little scared.
, always holding Liu Gen's big hand tightly with her small hands and not letting go. When Li Jiahe asked her name, Han Xue glanced at Liu Gen.
"Xue, this uncle is a good man. Say hello to him quickly." Liu Gen looked at Han Xue and said.
"Uncle...okay..." Han Xue spoke very slowly, sounding like she was stuttering. This was because her vocal cords could only recover to this state, and it was not enough to speak too fast.
"Hello, can you tell uncle what your name is?" After Li Jiahe lost his son, this was the first time he spoke so closely to a child, and he seemed very cordial.
"My...name is...Han Xue..."
"Han Xue has just undergone vocal cord repair surgery, and she still can't speak as fluently as ordinary people." Liu Gen explained.
Li Jiahe asked Zhang Qingyun to bring snacks, candies and chocolates, and personally peeled off the wrapping paper for Han Xue.
"Xue, can you and this uncle Zhang go outside and play for a while? Brother and uncle have to talk about something important." Liu Gen pointed at Zhang Qingyun and said.
Han Xue was a little reluctant, but she didn't want to affect Liu Gen's discussion of important matters, so she had no choice but to walk out of Li Jiahe's office with Zhang Qingyun.
Li Jiahe saw Han Xue's thoughts and said to Zhang Qingyun: "Secretary Zhang, take Xue to the general manager's office and let Xiao Liu and the other girls take care of her."
"Mr. Li..." Liu Gen just spoke, and Li Jiahe immediately corrected him.
"Why are you calling me Mr. Li again?"
"Haha...Brother Jiahe, I brought Han Xue here today to ask you to adopt her..." Liu Gen did not mince words and directly stated the purpose of bringing Han Xue to Li Jiahe.
"Adoption..." Li Jiahe was stunned: "She is an orphan?"
Liu Gen then briefly talked about how he met the blind Han Gui and Han Xue, how he performed vocal cord repair on Han Xue, the death of Han Gui, and the fact that Han Xue was unable to go to school due to household registration issues.
"Oh..." Li Jiahe's eyes were red with tears. As if he didn't want Liu Gen to see the tears in his eyes, he stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, put his hands on his hips and looked out the window.
Liu Gen didn't know what Li Jiahe was thinking, but he could see that Li Jiahe was moved. He sat quietly on the sofa drinking tea, waiting for Li Jiahe's decision. After all, this matter was a big deal for Li Jiahe.
, you can't ask others to agree immediately. Even if he doesn't agree to adopt Han Xue, Liu Gen will not force it.
"Liu Gen, you are better than me! Love knows no bounds!" Li Jiahe turned around, walked back and sat down, looked at Liu Gen and said: "I personally am completely willing to adopt Han Xue, but... I have to convince my parents. I hope you can
You understand, please give me some time, okay? I will handle this matter as soon as possible, um... leave the schooling matters to me, it doesn't matter if you don't have a household registration for the time being."
What Liu Gen didn't know was that after Li Jiahe lost his wife and child, his parents persuaded him to find another wife and have another child as soon as possible. He was the only son in the family, and his parents hoped to see a successor to the Li family in their lifetime, and Li Jiahe was a
Dutiful son, during this time, he is considering his parents' suggestions. If he decides to adopt Han Xue privately, his parents may be unhappy. After all, Han Xue will live with his parents in the future, and he doesn't want Han Xue to suffer what his parents don't like in the future.
Rolling eyes and cold remarks.
"If Brother Jiahe is in trouble..." Liu Gen thought Li Jiahe was using such an excuse to evade.
"Liu Gen..." Li Jiahe raised his hand to interrupt what Liu Gen was about to say: "Don't get me wrong, I will convince my parents to accept Han Xue as soon as possible. Only if my parents agree, Han Xue will be happy in my family in the future. You understand me
What do you mean?"
Liu Gen nodded as if he understood. He thought that adopting an orphan shouldn't be so complicated. Isn't it just giving a child without a father and mother a home? If he had a permanent residence in Nanhai City, then he would
I don’t want to come here to ask for help. Liu Gen has already thought about it. If Li Jiahe is not willing, he plans to send Han Xue back to his hometown, Qiong County, and let his mother adopt Han Xue. Her mother will definitely agree. How can she have to convince him like Li Jiahe said?
Parents and the like.
After all, Liu Gen was only a student and had not yet started a family, so of course he would not understand Li Jiahe's difficulties.
For the next thing to talk about, Li Jiahe called in his legal advisor to prepare a guarantee agreement, a guaranteed loan of 500,000 yuan. To Jiahe Group, it was just a small amount of money and there were not many complicated procedures. Li Jiahe quickly signed it.
After finishing the writing, it was stamped.
As long as Liu Gen takes this guarantee agreement and the relevant procedures of Shiweitian Company, he can go to the bank to apply for a loan.
At noon, Li Jiahe invited Liu Gen and Han Xue to have dinner at a nearby restaurant. He tried to talk to Han Xue as much as possible. In order to eliminate Han Xue's wariness about him, after dinner, he took Han Xue's hand to a children's clothing store and personally
After picking out some clothes and shoes for Han Xue, the clerk selling clothes in the store complimented him: "Sir, your daughter is so cute." Li Jiahe happily did not defend himself. After buying the clothes, he told Liu Gen that he would meet at the weekend.
Liu Gen agreed to go to school in person to pick him and Han Xue up at home.
Li Jiahe sent his driver to drive Liu Gen and Han Xue back to school. In the car, Han Xue suddenly asked Liu Gen in tears:
"Brother... you... don't want snow... anymore... you have to give... snow... to... that... uncle..."
When Liu Gen heard this, he realized that Han Xue understood what the clothes seller said. He took her into his arms with some distress and said sadly: "Xue, I want you to go to school like other children."
, I went to school to study with the teacher, but I don’t have the ability, I don’t have a household registration, and people won’t accept you. It’s not that I don’t want you, I will always be your brother, and I will never leave Xue.”
"Xue... doesn't want to... be that... uncle's... child..." Han Xue cried, "Xue... wants to be... brother's... sister... and Xiangzi... brother... sister Xue...
...you...live together..."
"Good sister, Sister Xue and I will not let Xue leave, but brother also wants to study, and sister Xue also wants to study. We have no home in Nanhai." Liu Gen knew that Han Xue had become accustomed to being with herself and Ouyang these days.
Xue together: "Is this okay? Xue will go to Uncle Jiahe's house first. If Xue likes his grandparents and is willing to stay with them, then Xue will go and live with his grandparents. In the future, brother and sister Xue will often
I want to see you. If you miss me brother and sister Xue, you can also call me often."
"Hmm..." Han Xue cried and agreed. Although she was still young, she had followed Han Gui for so many years, and she knew a lot about the warmth and warmth of people. She also understood that Liu Gen and Ouyang Xue had to go to school, and Brother Xiangzi had to do business.
On Saturday morning, Li Jiahe took Liu Gen and Han Xue home. What he didn't expect was that after telling his parents what Liu Gen had told him about Han Xue's experience, their parents immediately agreed. In the past few days, the house where his grandson lived had been moved to the house.
After packing it up, he also bought some girl toys and some clothes for Han Xue, and was ready to adopt Han Xue. Li Jiahe also asked the lawyer to start the adoption procedures.
Li Jiahe's parents were kind and kind. Han Xue had a good impression of them. They also had beautiful clothes and a good house to live in. They felt very fresh. After Liu Gen's repeated persuasion, Han Xue agreed to live in Li Jiahe's house.
When Liu Gen left, Han Xue hugged Liu Gen tightly and cried as if she was parting, but she no longer said she didn't want to be someone else's child, which made all the adults cry with her, especially Li Jiahe's mother, who cried for Han.
Xue knew that she could never let go of her benefactor since she was a child. She was deeply moved and fell in love with Han Xue even more.
Li Jiahe only added the word "Li" in front of Han Xue's name and still kept the surname Han. This was to let Han Xue remember the life given to her by the kind-hearted blind man Han Gui.
At first, Han Xue always called Liu Gen and Ouyang Xue every night before going to bed, crying and saying that she missed her brother and sister Xue. But gradually, the number of calls became less and she no longer cried on the phone.
He would tell Liu Gen and Ouyang Xue some stories he heard from Li Jiahe's parents, and he never complained about the Li family's problems in front of Liu Gen.
Liu Gen and Ouyang Xue went to Li Jiahe's house to visit Han Xue on the second day after the exam.
After seeing Han Xue in just half a month, she seemed to have completely changed as a person. She spoke much more fluently and was in a particularly good mood. From her always cheerful expression, it was obvious that she was having a very happy time at the Li family.
"Brother and Sister Xue are on vacation. They have to leave Nanhai for more than a month. Xue should also go to school in September. You must study hard." Liu Gen said at the dinner table.
Li Jiahe found a private aristocratic school for Han Xue. Han Xue had actually started to participate in summer student activities there. The school also organized summer camps abroad during the holidays. For this reason, Li Jiahe took a special vacation and took his parents to accompany Han Xue.
Go on vacation.
There was a child at home, and Li Jiahe's parents rarely talked in his ears about finding another woman to have children. Han Xue was also particularly popular with the elderly, and would even help wash dishes, vegetables, and clothes, including her own clothes.
Basically, he washes the clothes with his own hands. Li Jiahe's father has limited legs and feet, so Han Xue will beat the old man with his small fist. This is the most basic life skill she learned from Han Gui.
Liu Gen wants to follow the team to participate in football matches in different provinces and cities. The work of Shiweitian's business and opening branches falls on Xiangzi and Chen Hao. Jiahe Group Leasing Company provides Shiweitian with a place in the bustling business of Nanhai City.
Although the street shops in the district are not big, they are in very good locations. Li Jiahe asked the leasing company to provide the cheapest rent without any deposit.
During this holiday, Chen Hao's main job is to open this branch and complete the establishment of Shiweitian Catering Service Co., Ltd. According to Liu Gen's requirements, the branch must open in mid-August.
With money, it will be much easier to open a branch, and the training of clerks and chefs will be carried out at the same time.
At noon on the day when Liu Gen was preparing to go on an expedition with the school team, there was a man wearing a northwest sweatshirt and wide-leg pants, carrying a woven bag like the one Liu Gen carried when he was in school. He arrived at Shiweitian.
