My best friend is living a famine-stricken life; you're going crazy, I'm farming.

Chapter 194 Let's adopt then.

Yang Fenglan wondered why the girl, who had been perfectly fine just moments before, had suddenly become so sullen.

While cooking porridge, I kept trying to find topics to talk about, asking her about her uncle's house.

Perhaps because it brought up bad memories, she refused to talk about it, only saying, "Grandma was very good. My aunt sent me to Qingshui Village, but Grandma didn't know."

"Okay, from now on, you can stay by my side and I'll take good care of you and make you plump and healthy, okay?" Yang Fenglan smiled what she thought was a kind smile.

To everyone's surprise, the child looked terrified.

"what happened?"

"No, don't sell me, I can do things." Chun Ya kept waving her hands.

"I won't sell it to you." Yang Fenglan sighed. "Forget it, go wake up your sister Yingying."

"Okay." Chunya got up and walked out of the kitchen before remembering to ask, "Shouldn't I call her Auntie?"

"Don't listen to that crazy girl, call her sister."

They are still of different generations, so it is indeed inappropriate for her to call her "aunt".

Yang Fenglan made some porridge, put it on the table to cool, and then picked up a large plate of pickled vegetables.

The adults and children then got up.

Xu Yingying was delighted to find food available as soon as she arrived and invited the little ones to sit down and eat.

Lin Cuiniang looked remorseful. "Fenglan, really, why didn't you ask me for help?"

Lin Cuiniang was so frightened by what Xiao Yuanshan said last night that she stayed up half the night before falling asleep and woke up late this morning.

"Don't worry, there's plenty of work for you."

After finishing her meal, Yang Fenglan went inside and brought out two pieces of cloth for Lin Cuiniang. "Cuiniang, could you please help me make that girl a change of clothes?"

Lin Cuiniang would naturally not refuse such a thing.

"Okay, I'll go take the child's measurements and make her a pair of shoes while I'm at it. I see her shoes are all worn out."

"Thank you then."

The house was facing away from the wind. Lin Cuiniang measured Chunya's measurements, then took a needle and thread and sat in front of the house to cut the clothes. Only after she finished cutting did she begin to sew them together.

On the mountain, no fancy designs are needed; a simple sew will suffice.

Xiao An's children were still playing in the vegetable garden, chasing away birds as they went.

The seedlings have grown taller than they did a few days ago, so I need to keep a close eye on them.

Chun Ya was used to being busy at her uncle's house, and she felt uneasy whenever she had free time. She took a broom and swept the fallen leaves and twigs at the doorway clean.

Yang Fenglan and Lin Cuiniang sat together chatting.

As they chatted, the topic turned to Chun Ya, and Lin Cui Niang sighed, saying that the child was really pitiful.

Yang Fenglan felt a sudden panic and looked at Lin Cuiniang several times. "Actually, Chunya is my child."

"What?" Lin Cuiniang looked at Yang Fenglan in surprise.

Then she thought it was impossible. In the same village, no one could keep anything from each other. How could she not know whether Yang had children or not?

"You mean, you're planning to adopt her?"

"Um……"

Yang Fenglan suddenly didn't know what to say.

She was resolute yesterday, but when it came to the truth, she still couldn't bring herself to say that the child was her biological child.

Forget it, let's not talk about it.

If your companions dislike you while you're deep in the mountains, you won't be able to continue living together for the next six months.

Let them adopt.

"Yes, her family didn't want her anymore, so I brought her here with that in mind."

"The girl is pitiful, let's raise her if we can." Lin Cuiniang also felt sorry for Chun Ya's plight.

Yang Fenglan tentatively asked, "If I change her name and make her call me 'Mom,' do you think that's appropriate?"

"Well... I'm worried about your brother's side..."

"At worst, we'll just cut off all contact."

"That's true. If a brother can lose his own child, he's better off without one."
