Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 1228: 303: Priceless Treasure!_2

To avoid being reminded and pained by objects, on the day of the funeral, the Mo family patriarch decided to burn all of the belongings related to the child, not even leaving behind a photograph.

Watching the clothes, photographs, and milk bottles being devoured by the flames, Mo Baichuan’s mother, Xiu Jiao, cried to the point of nearly fainting.

Even Mo Baichuan’s father’s eyes reddened with tears.

Four months…

Their granddaughter was only four months old.

But perhaps it was better to burn these things, to avoid recalling the pain every time they saw them.

Some scars need time to heal.

After the funeral ended, it was November, and in just one more month, it would be the New Year’s celebration.

Originally, this year was filled with the joy of a new addition to the Mo Family, and both the Mo family patriarch and matriarch had planned a grand celebration. But now, with this incident, the New Year could only be marked with a simple observance.

On the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, Ni Chengui and Zhou Dawei returned home. After more than a month apart, they brought back an exceptionally adorable child.

Nurtured with great care over the month, Yuanyuan had gained eight pounds and her features had developed splendidly.

Children at this age change day by day.

Ni Cuihua was startled, “Sister Chenggui, Brother-in-law, where did you get this child from?”

Ni Chengui recounted the day’s events, then said, “This is our own flesh and blood, Dawei and I. Oh right, we’ve already given her a name, her formal name is Zhou Tianci, and her nickname is Yuanyuan, from the word ‘fate’.”

Ni Cuihua nodded, “This child really is fated to be with you two. Let me hold her, she’s grown so well!”

Lady Shangguan and Mrs. Zheng, hearing that Ni Chengui and Zhou Dawei had brought back a child, hurried downstairs to see the excitement.

“Oh my dear lord! This child is so beautiful!”

“Look, she can even smile!”

Little Ni Yun stood on her tiptoes and said, “Let me see the baby, let me see!”

Lady Shangguan squatted down with the child in her arms, “Come, come, let our Yunyun have a look, now Yunyun is also promoted to being a big sister!”

Little Ni Yun exclaimed in surprise, “Am I the big sister of this baby?”

“Yes.”

Little Ni Yun twirled around in excitement, “I’m a big sister! I’m a big sister! This is so wonderful!” She had been a younger sister and a younger aunt before, but this was her first time being a big sister!

“Grandma, may I hold my little sister, please?”

Lady Shangguan said, “You are too small, you can’t carry your little sister.”

Little Ni Yun kissed Yuanyuan’s face with a big smooch, “Then I’ll just give my little sister a kiss! By the way, Auntie, what’s the little sister’s name?”

Ni Chengui said, “The little sister’s formal name is Zhou Tianci, her nickname is Yuanyuan. Yunyun, you can just call her Yuanyuan from now on!”

“Yuanyuan!”

When Ni Yang came home in the evening, Ni Cuihua immediately told her about it.

Ni Yang said in surprise, “Really?”

Before Ni Cuihua could respond, Little Ni Yun eagerly said, “Really! I’ve seen the little sister! She’s so cute!”

Ni Yang turned to Zhao Yu and said, “Let’s go see your little aunt.”

Zhao Yu: “…”

“I want to go too!”

Little Ni Yun followed the two of them.

“Meow!”

Dapang also followed along to watch the fun.

“Silly cat, we’re the lowest in seniority here!” Zhao Yu bent down and picked up Dapang.

The three of them and the cat arrived at Ni Chengui’s place.

Ni Chengui and Zhou Dawei were busy giving Yuanyuan a bath, with the heater on in the room so it wouldn’t be cold during the bath.

Yuanyuan was fair and chubby, with round, cute, and large eyes, and her little hands constantly splashed in the basin, melting Ni Yang’s heart.

“Is this little Yuanyuan?” Ni Yang walked over and pinched Yuanyuan’s little hand.

Ni Chengui smiled and said, “This is Yuanyuan. Yangyang, when did you get back?”

With Yuanyuan now in their life, Ni Chengui’s complexion had significantly improved compared to before they left home, and she even looked much younger.

Ni Yang said, “I just got home. Auntie Ni, congratulations to you and Uncle Zhou on the birth of your precious daughter!”

“Thank you!”

Ni Chengui continued, “By the way, Yangyang, your Uncle Zhou named Yuanyuan ‘Zhou Tianci’, what do you think of the name?”

Ni Yang nodded, “Tianci implies a gift from heaven, as well as the fate between you and her. I think it’s a very clever name!”

If even Ni Yang approved, then the name must be great!

Zhou Dawei smiled even happier!

And Ni Yang couldn’t shake the feeling that, perhaps it was her imagination, but this child really bore a resemblance to Ni Chengui and Zhou Dawei.

Perhaps, it’s true that those who are not related by blood are not brought together in the same household.
