Chapter 234: Chapter 123: The Mother Who Favors Sons Over Daughters (Part 10)_2

"Well, well—" He Tiantian deliberately feigned hesitation.

It took her quite a while before she managed to say, "I, I want to take this child home to raise, is that possible?"

After saying this, He Tiantian quickly added to prevent the police from overthinking: "I know, this child could turn out to be an idiot, but he wasn’t born this way; he was made like this by someone."

"I, I have borne two daughters and ruined my health, I can’t have any more!"

"But my family needs a boy, even an idiot would do. This child isn’t naturally like this, when he grows up, he can still have children."

"My family’s lineage must not end, Officer, rest assured, I will treat this child as if he were my own flesh and blood!"

"...If, if the child’s parents come looking, I, I am willing to give him back to them!"

He Tiantian spoke with heartfelt sincerity, and did not hide the fact that her family urgently needed a boy.

She also said that she was willing to leave her home address and contact information in detail, so if the real parents come looking, she, she would return the child intact.

The police were touched by her words.

Although the child could be sent to an orphanage, if he could be adopted by a normal family, that would also be a kind of happiness for this unfortunate child.

And despite the hints of preferring boys over girls in He Tiantian’s blunt truth, the police could very much understand.

Yes, this child was not born with mental deficiencies, he had been poisoned with sleeping pills.

When he grows up, he can still carry on the family line just as well.

For some remote rural families, this situation was already the best they could hope for.

The police genuinely considered the best interests of the child and patiently guided He Tiantian through the legal adoption procedures.

By the time all the procedures were completed and all of the child’s issues were dealt with, a week had already passed.

During this time, He Tiantian was not idle either.

She took Zhao Dan and Zhao Xiaoya around the streets and alleys of Shenzhen, or the many factories in the suburbs for a stroll.

The bustle and hustle of an emerging mega-city and the busy and lively atmosphere of large and small factories, along with many young laborers from all over the country.

They were young but confident, their work was hard but they were full of energy.

Zhao Dan had been trapped in a hair salon since arriving in Shenzhen for a month; where had she ever seen such a sight?

After seeing so much, Zhao Dan’s personality also became more cheerful.

She even had the courage to greet those young people and actively join in their casual conversations.

"...The three-shift work is exhausting, but luckily I get paid every month, which I send back home. I’ve already saved enough for my brother’s betrothal gifts."

"Our family has built an extension to the house, a two-story building. My mother said that if I work harder and earn more money, I could buy a small pickup truck for my little brother!"

"Ah, us working girls can only do assembly line work, not like those supervisors from Hong Kong, tsk tsk, they do nothing and still get several thousand in salary a month."

"It’s good to study, you know. I heard our factory spent a lot of money hiring a college graduate, who specialized in fashion design in Capital City."

"Right, if you want to make something of yourself, you have to study. I wrote to my mom insisting that my younger brother and sister must go to school, I’ll figure out the tuition fees!"

"Even if you don’t study, learning a skill is also good. Our workshop’s Xiao Hua, she learned Foreign Language during her breaks. Oh my, the last time foreigners visited the workshop, Xiao Hua greeted them with a ’hello’ and even the boss was amazed..."

This group of young workers had beautiful aspirations as well as deep regrets and remorse about their work, families, and future.

But more than that, there was respect and admiration for truly outstanding talent.

As Zhao Dan and Zhao Xiaoya listened, a bright light began to emerge in their eyes.

"Mom, I, I don’t want to go back to the old home anymore, I want to stay in Shenzhen to work, to learn a trade!"

Zhao Dan had really grown up, bold enough to make requests to her real mother.

Moreover, Zhao Dan had a clear understanding of her situation: "I am already fifteen, it’s too late to start school, better to learn a trade."

Originally, Zhao Dan wanted to learn hairstyling, to acquire the skills and then open a barbershop back home.

But, that salon had left a very bad impression on her.

She always felt that such places were not decent.

It would be better to learn something else, like making clothes; that way, she could open her own small tailor shop when she returns.
