Chapter 140 The Daughter Sold 4
Wang's father smiled and said, "It's just an adoption. Why write any paperwork? There's no need to waste that paper. I, Wang Daquan, guarantee with my integrity that I will never go back on my word. You can rest assured."

Wang's father spoke with confidence, but he was thinking the opposite in his heart.

Hangzhou is a nice place and he wants to settle down here. His two elder daughters live too far away and his Wang family won't be able to take advantage of them in the future. Only the younger daughter is here. When his eldest son Dabao grows up a little, he will take the younger daughter back and exchange her for a dowry to help Dabao get married.

However, once the adoption documents were signed, it would not be easy to get my little daughter back.

The old village chief's face darkened. "Wang Daquan, Sangen is adopting a child, and writing adoption documents is a legitimate and reasonable thing to do. You are making excuses and not wanting to write it, which makes us have to think more."

"Wang Daquan, adopting a child is a big deal. We can't just guarantee it with our mouth. It would be safer if we write an adoption document." Ge Sangen also said.

Seeing that Wang Daquan was unwilling, the people of Gejia Village surrounded him and said, "Wang Daquan, it's just writing a document, why are you so fussy about it?"

"That's right, Wang Daquan. Today, either you don't exchange your daughter for food, or you leave a few adoption documents."

What this means is that you can’t leave without signing the adoption documents.

The Wang couple are from outsiders, so they cannot beat the locals, let alone people from the same village.

Finally, a group of people went to the brigade headquarters, and the Wang couple signed and stamped their fingerprints on the document written by the old village chief, and only then were they able to leave the village.

To be on the safe side, the old village chief wrote two more copies, one for each of the brigade, the commune, and the public security bureau. The remaining three were given to Ge Sangen. "Sangen, take this document back and keep it safe. I think Wang Daquan is not sure and will definitely come back to look for the child in the future. Tomorrow, you and I will go to the commune and the public security bureau. We will report the document and the child's household registration, and go through the formal channels to adopt the child. In the future, we won't be afraid of Wang Daquan coming to ask for the child."

"Okay, thank you, uncle."

After Ge Sangen collected the documents, he took his wife and daughter home. When he got home, he gave the documents to Qian Xiaoying for safekeeping, and also reminded her, "Don't put them all in one place, give a copy to our mother for safekeeping, she keeps things safe."

Qian Xiaoying nodded, "The head of the family is still very thoughtful."

"Mom, give me one of my own adoption documents. I want to keep a copy too." Yuanchun suddenly stretched out her hand.

"Okay, okay, I'll keep a copy for you."

The first time a child called her mom, Qian Xiaoying was so happy that she would find a way to get her even for meat, let alone a document.

"Yuanchun, you must be hungry. Mom will make you a steamed egg custard. We have a few eggs at home. Mom will save them for you."

Qian Xiaoying gave Yuanchun a document, carefully locked the other two documents into the box, and went to the kitchen to cook.

Not long after, a bowl of steaming egg custard was served to Yuanchun.

Yuanchun's body has not eaten or drunk anything for three days. If she hadn't entered the Ge family today, she would have starved to death in another day.

She was sipping her egg custard, enjoying it, when an old woman came running over and shouted from a distance, "Xiaoying, I heard you adopted a little girl."

"Oh, this is the little girl, right? She has such big eyes, a small nose, and a small mouth. She is so pretty, but she is too thin. She needs to be fed more in the future. I have two eggs here, and grandma will bring them to you tomorrow."
