Chapter 1275: Chapter 1269: Losing Face_1 Chapter 1275: Chapter 1269: Losing Face_1 âI have no objections to this, as long as you two donât have any.â The old man said, waving his hand, after hearing what his daughter-in-law had spoken and noticing the whole family were looking at him.
Adopting a child isnât a big deal, especially if itâs for a good cause. Helping one person if you can is a good deed. As for whether the childâs destiny matches with ours, thatâs not something we need to concern ourselves with. If you want to adopt, then go ahead.
âThank you, Dad.â Nangong Shulan was overjoyed when she heard her father-in-law had no objections. She knew her in-laws would accept Qing Zhu just as they had accepted her.
Now, if Qing Zhu agrees, then the matter is settled. In the future, living here, they can help take care of her, making life less difficult for both mother and daughter.
âWhat is there to thank for? I first met your mother because my father-in-law had helped me back in the day. When their family had a hard time, I married her and ended up helping you. My son married you later. Our family seems to have a destiny with such matters. If we can help, we will.â Mr. Qin recalled how, in his younger days, he had received financial assistance from his wifeâs father due to his familyâs difficult financial situation.
Although his father did not live much longer after that, his peaceful demise was owed to their help. Thus, his father got to see him happily married before passing away.
âExactly, your father and I were brought together because of such a matter, and then we met you. Look at us now, we have gained a wonderful daughter-in-law by extending a helping hand.â The old woman laughed.
Because her father helped her husband, when their family was persecuted, she managed to marry just in time and avoided much suffering. Her father said that helping his son-in-law was one of the most correct things heâd ever done, as it eventually resulted in helping his own daughter. Therefore, on his deathbed, he had urged his daughter and son-in-law to help others whenever they could.
Helping others is helping oneself. He had personally experienced this principle and thus, firmly believed that good deeds always get repaid. Mr. Qin and the old woman had always remembered this last wish and strived to fulfill it.
âYeah, yeah.â Qin Lei and Nangong Shulan nodded in agreement.
Qin Jiale couldnât believe there was such a story in her familyâs history. It sounded exactly like a plot from a movie. She felt like their past could be turned into a film.
âSpeaking of which, I feel like some things are predestined. We should just go with the flow.â The old woman also felt that the happenings in their family seemed to follow a continuous thread.
âOkay.â Everyone in the family agreed.
âWhat happened at Mr. Qinâs house that you mentioned when you came home?â The old woman remembered the reason for their late return.
âWe heard from the villagers that Mr. Qinâs daughter has gone insane. Sheâs at the entrance of the village. We didnât stay to hear more.â Nangong Shulan answered when she heard her mother-in-lawâs question.
âSpeaking of which, she brought it upon herself. This issue hasnât been settled yet, and now thereâs another scandal.â The old woman had heard about the incident that happened during the New Year and felt it was a disgrace to the villagers.
Now, she heard gossip everywhere in the village. The scandal had spread to other villages. People from other villages were afraid to marry their daughters into their village, or marry daughters from their village, fearing they might end up with another disgraceful woman. One bad apple spoils the whole barrel.
âWho could disagree?â Nangong Shulan glanced at her young daughter who was still eating. There were some things she couldnât say in front of her daughter or her father-in-law, so she agreed with her mother-in-lawâs words and the rumors circulating outside.
