However, it was a good thing that Chen Ping was a good person. He was willing to endure hardships and was a down-to-earth person. He was also very good to Liu Juan. Only then did Liu Juan’s parents feel relieved. 

“Hey, why are you here?” Qu Meng’er was lying on the bed, tidying up what she knew bit by bit. She heard Chen Ping’s voice outside. 

Qu Meng’er heard Chen Ping say something. Her mind spun for a moment. 

“My brother and sister-in-law, quickly, come in and sit for a while.” Liu Juan also stopped what she was doing and called out to her in-laws 

“Little Juan, I won’t beat around the bush with you. I heard from the villagers that you and Little Ping adopted a daughter together?” Chen Ping’s sister-in-law. Cai Yu was a straightforward person. 

Liu Juan did not expect Chen Ping’s brother and sister-in-law to come for this matter. “Yes, we want to adopt a daughter. However, this matter hasn’t been decided yet. We have to wait for the Village Chief to find the child’s parents before we can adopt the child,” Liu Juan said, after a pause, she continued, “I’ll let you take a look at the child. She’s very good-looking.” As she said this, Liu Juan entered the house and carried Qu Meng’er up from the bed. 

“Little Ping, what are you thinking? Your family isn’t having an easy time right now. You still have two boys at home. You should not adopt another girl.” It was obvious. Chen Ping’s eldest brother, Chen Tao, did not agree with his younger brother adopting another child. 

“I know what you mean. But, if it’s possible, Little Juan and I still want to adopt this child. You know that Little Juan and I have always wanted a daughter. However, the last time Little Juan gave birth to Little Xuan, her body was injured. I don’t want Little Juan to suffer that kind of pain again. Plus, this child is really good-looking. So, Little Juan and I thought that if it’s possible, we will adopt her.” After spending these few days together, Chen Ping had developed paternal feelings for Qu Meng’er. Now, he was really reluctant to send Qu Meng’er away. 

Qu Meng’er heard the conversation between the adults. She did not expect Chen Ping’s elder brother and sister-in-law to come for her. 

“This is the child. She is very good-looking and especially obedient. She is very likable.” Liu Juan carried the child to Chen Tao and Cai Yu. 

Cai Yu was also a person who liked children. When she saw Qu Meng’er’s soft and tender and cute appearance, she immediately liked her. “Little Juan, this child is really good-looking. She’s even more beautiful than the children in our village,” Cai Yu came over and teased Qu Meng’er. 

“Exactly. Our boys love her. Usually, when we go to work, these two are responsible for watching their sister.” Liu Juan adjusted the posture of holding Qu Meng’er, this made Qu Meng’er feel more comfortable. 

“Little Ping, are you at home?” As they were talking in the house, there was a shout from outside. 

“I heard the Village Chief’s voice.” Chen Ping said to his brother, “I’ll go open the door.” 

“Go ahead.” As Chen Tao said this, he glanced over at Qu Meng’er. He thought to himself, “This child is really pretty good-looking.” 

“Little Juan, the Village Chief is here. Pour some water for him,” Chen Ping shouted to Liu Juan as he walked into the house with the Village Chief. 

“Okay.” Liu Juan handed Qu Meng’er to her sister-in-law, Cai Yu, to carry. 

When Qu Meng’er heard Chen Ping say that the Village Chief was here, she knew that it was time for her to go out from now on. Although Qu Meng’er felt much more at ease because she had a portable space. At least, no matter where she went, she would not starve to death. 

However, when she was about to make this decision, her heart could not help but rise. She did not know what her future life would be like if the Village Chief brought news of her biological parents. 

“Village Chief, how’s the situation?” Liu Juan was also nervous. After she poured the water for the Village Chief, she couldn’t wait to ask. 

Although Chen Ping didn’t speak, he looked quite calm. But only he himself knew that his heart was beating wildly. 

“We sent people to inquire about it and also went to look for the parents. But we didn’t find out which family in the surrounding area had lost a child. So, if you want to adopt this child, you can keep her.” After the Village Chief drank a mouthful of water, he said. 

Hearing the Village Chief’s words, Qu Meng’er heaved a sigh of relief. Alright, her future was set in stone. 

Meanwhile, Chen Ping and Liu Juan both revealed smiles on their faces. Their tensed nerves had also relaxed. 

“I came today to tell you about this matter. Also, if you really intend to adopt this child, follow me to complete the formalities later.” The Village Chief was not doing this out of kindness, he was doing this for himself. He was afraid that Chen Ping and his wife would regret it. When that time came, this child would have to be handed over to him to handle. How would he handle such a matter? 

“Good, good. I’ll go through the formalities with you right away.” Chen Ping stood up excitedly and said. 

Just like that, Qu Meng’er, no, she should be called Chen Meng’er now, would officially become a member of the Chen family. She became the daughter of Chen Ping and Liu Juan as well as Chen Haoguo’s and Chen Haoxuan’s sister. 

Chen Meng’er had a family..
