The latter referred to the fact that these young girls had already been married, and now they were back in the old house. Despite their ability to sit still, they were also able to run to the village.

The Land Officer, however, seemed unhurried.

“Why are you so worried? While the county is responsible for household registration, have I not managed these village matters all these years? The county won’t bother about you as a farmer. You can handle it. Going to the county won’t change anything,” Land Officerreassured.

But they remained unconvinced.

In the past, some villagers were unwilling to provide him with benefits. Even when he went to the county, the county residents paid no attention.

That was the harsh reality.

Despite their anxiety, Land Officer remained calm.

They had the luxury of time.

When they faced obstacles in the county, they would inevitably turn to him.

The third branch of the Yan family was affluent, and he intended to claim compensation.

Upon hearing this, Old Man Yan no longer felt rushed.

Indeed, that made perfect sense!

If they truly adopted him, the affairs of the old house would be irrelevant.

How could he not be anxious?

Any mishandling of the situation would still have consequences for the old house.

Old Man Yan felt a sense of relief.

They were simply waiting for their return.

The village hushed once again, anticipating their return and the unfolding results.

Meanwhile, the two families had already reached the city. Unrushed, they leisurely enjoyed two bowls of noodles before setting out. Gu Chaoyan, before leaving, made a detour to the Lin Family’s pharmacy.

Upon her arrival, Manager Lin emerged.

“What’s this about?” Manager Lin inquired.

“The ginseng delivery will come on another day. We’re here in the city for some household registration. Since Manager Lin is in the county, you might be more familiar with the process. Could you direct us to the right place?” Gu Chaoyan asked.

Manager Lin considered it a minor affair. “Registration? That’s simple. I’m free right now; I can guide you. It won’t take much time.”

Gu Chaoyan felt a twinge of awkwardness. “Well, we can manage on our own.”

“You can, but it might take longer,” Manager Lin replied with a friendly smile.

In today’s world, those with some influence tended to be accommodating.

Gu Chaoyan nodded, comprehending the situation. “Thank you, Manager Lin.” After a moment’s thought, she produced some silver. “Is this sufficient?”

“That’s too much,” Manager Lin responded directly. “Usually, one tael is already considered generous for such matters. Household registration isn’t a high-ranking position.”

“Don’t worry, it’s just for this,” Gu Chaoyan insisted with a smile.

Manager Lin said nothing more.

She must have her own reasons for taking this course of action.

Manager Lin guided them to the registration office.

Upon reaching the household registration office, the process was completed within fifteen minutes. Tian Jiu retained his name, but now “Yan” preceded it as the family name.

Gu Chaoyan discussed the next steps with Manager Lin, then proceeded to purchase a substantial amount of vegetables. Planning to host a village banquet after the wedding, she needed ample provisions. With Auntie Lianhua’s expertise, they faced little concern.

All these tasks were efficiently accomplished.

Upon their return to the village, anticipation hung in the air. The Land Officer, too, awaited news eagerly.

Upon seeing them, he inquired with a smile, “Has the adoption been finalized?”

“Yes, we will host a dinner at our house the next day,” Gu Chaoyan announced generously.

The villagers were taken aback by this revelation.

Word quickly spread, with some rushing to inform the Land Officer.
