The Blessed Beauty Returns with a Dimension

Chapter 281: Good Person



"Really! Grandpa and Grandma are watching Yiyi from the sky! But they can't come back because Grandpa and Grandma are sick! You've always known that Grandpa and Grandma went to seek treatment, it'll take a long time for them to return, but Yiyi is so sad.

They will be sad too! Does Yiyi really want Grandpa and Grandma to worry about you?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao knew it wasn't right to lie, but Bai Yiyi was only five.

However much you say, she won't understand.

Only when Bai Yiyi is a bit older can you explain clearly.

Bai Yiyi heard that and immediately shook her head, "No! I don't want Grandpa and Grandma to come back. They are very sick, Grandpa coughs all night long! He even pretended he was fine, I saw Grandpa coughing blood.

Grandma can't even get out of bed, I was worried to death. Now they can go for treatment! I am very happy, I don't want them to come back. They have to get better, I'll wait for them to come back obediently. I will be good, definitely won't cause trouble."

Bai Yiyi possessed a maturity beyond her years, showing an adult's choice and compromise.

A fondness and longing for her relatives.

Cui Fen at the door wiped her tears, this child, despite spending little time together, really said words that were heartbreaking.

Her in-laws didn't raise this child in vain; this child truly is close to Grandpa and Grandma.

She brought a bowl of food inside.

"Yiyi, come eat, only a full meal will give you strength to wait for Grandpa and Grandma to come back. Here, Aunt made noodles. Come quickly!"

The child will follow them in the future, Cui Fen wants to cultivate a harmonious relationship with the child, she can't take the child back and have chaos at home every day.

Bai Yiyi held onto Jiang Xiaoxiao tightly, with eyes, expression, and gestures as if afraid Jiang Xiaoxiao would abandon her.

Jiang Xiaoxiao patted her helplessly.

"I'm not leaving, you eat well. If you don't eat, you won't have any strength when Grandpa and Grandma come back, as Aunt said is very true."

Bai Yiyi looked at Jiang Xiaoxiao earnestly, "What should I call you?"

The child was smart and remembered what Jiang Xiaoxiao said earlier.

"Call me sister."

Bai Yiyi reluctantly let go, she didn't know why, but she felt particularly close when meeting this sister.

Auntie placed a bowl in front of her.

"This is blood kinship, see how she listens to you on the first meeting."

This child is not so close to them.

"Aunt, I'll just follow the child in calling you, but I want to ask, are you planning to take the child back to the countryside? But this child has an urban hukou. If you take her back to the countryside, it would be a pity. Ultimately, she will have to return for schooling."

Jiang Xiaoxiao couldn't bear for the child to return to the countryside.

This has nothing to do with looking down on rural people.

In this era, urban hukou and rural hukou are vastly different.

Even in future college exams, urban hukou scores differ greatly from rural hukou scores.

Taking the child to the countryside only adds more caregivers for the child, but it's a rather bad choice for her future.

Cui Fen sighed, they know well that the child has an urban hukou, if following them back to the village, what would happen? If her hukou isn't relocated, she doesn't count as a villager and won't get land.

They have to feed this child, which will come out of their own family's ration; not like they can monthly travel to the city to buy urban grain using her hukou booklet.

Even if urban hukou means grain can be bought, the problem is they have no money or grain coupons.

"We know taking her back would be unfair to her, but there's no way. You see the family's situation now, the elders have passed away, her father is long gone and can't be found.

Her mother is in such a situation, you can't leave such a small child alone in the county.

We'll wait a few years and if her mother comes out, we'll make plans then, maybe the child can return to the county to attend school. Now we can only take her back, at least give her food; nothing else we can do."

Jiang Xiaoxiao could tell this couple are honest people.

They regard her as a real relative, that's why they speak frankly.

It stirred her heart, Bai Yiyi isn't yet school age.

This child needs proper arrangements now, if truly following Uncle and Aunt.

She might even encounter traffickers on the road and be abducted, just like in the past life, from what she knows, later Bai Yiyi sought her mother out but didn't manage to meet her because her mother died in jail, so the child was left unsupported.

Even without such incidents, following Uncle and Aunt, schooling becomes difficult, they have four kids in their family, even if they want to care wholeheartedly, they lack the capability.

"Aunt, I want to discuss something, why not call Uncle back, let's sit and talk about the child's future. I'm considered a relative too. Our home is in Jingbei; I want to take Bai Yiyi back to raise her."

Jiang Xiaoxiao's plan was remarkable.

Cui Fen and Bai Yiyi both looked at Jiang Xiaoxiao.

Cui Fen was very surprised; this young girl is certainly kind-hearted, but goodwill should not be misplaced, no matter how distant this relative is.

Ordinary people faced with such circumstances would avoid responsibility when they can; they are the proper close family unable to avoid, can't watch their niece suffer.

Yet this girl volunteered herself, indicating too much kindness; without consulting her parents, such a decision would likely be rash.

Her parents surely would be furious if they knew their daughter was impulsive in making this choice.

Despite being kind-hearted, they can't simply do this; if word gets out, they'd be seen heartless for abandoning this poor relative to another.

And this girl has a pitiful background, direct relatives not supporting but tossing her aside, makes no sense.

Bai Yiyi had bright eyes, she liked this sister, who was related to her mother, considering them sisters.

If she could be with this sister, she would like it.

"I'll call you by name, Xiaoxiao, this matter can be big or small. Reasonably speaking, we are the child's only family now. Raising a child isn't like raising a pet; it's a living person.

You're young and inexperienced, to make such a decision without consulting your parents is rash."

Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled, "Aunt, I understand your point; actually, before my parents arrived, they told me that if I found the child in bad circumstances, to take her home with us. But I never imagined her grandparents would pass away.

Given the current situation, we live in the city; having the child live with us and attending school in the city is more convenient.

At worst, we transfer her hukou from here to Jingbei; transferring between cities is easier, and we'll definitely ensure her schooling, which is why I dared say this."

Jiang Xiaoxiao was genuinely grateful to Cui Fen for her goodwill and responsibility.

Not because of family difficulties, did they simply cast out this child like an old rag.

In this regard, this Uncle and Aunt are indeed good-hearted people.
