Zhang Yu watched as one after another mocked her for being foolish, for being easily fooled and the like, but she didn’t come forward to explain.

What good would explaining do?

As long as they didn’t believe in their hearts, any explanation in their eyes would be sophistry, not to be trusted.

As time passed and development began, the city government decided to operate in the new area, and many financial institutions relocated their city headquarters, they were dumbfounded.

In her previous life, even though they were so-called well-informed people, they missed out on this opportunity.

First, there was no housing available.

When they found listings, they saw that in just a few months, the prices had risen a lot, so they decided not to buy, and kept missing out.

This time around, they were making the same mistakes, it was clear they really didn’t have the luck for wealth.

However, this had nothing to do with her.

She had warned them, and if people didn’t listen, what could she do?

“Okay, can we eat now?”

“After eating, I’ll go back early to rest.

I have a lot of paperwork to do tomorrow.”

“Get the property deed, then move the hukou.” Zhang Yu grew more and more excited, “I can finally have an independent household registration.”

With the hukou book in hand, she could truly do what she wanted.

As for what Zhang Dagu and the others thought, sorry, it was irrelevant to her.

Seeing the excited Zhang Yu, Zhang Dagu had a thought, “Are you really planning to adopt a child?”

He initially thought she was just speaking casually, but for some reason, he couldn’t shake the feeling that the issues of buying a house and relocating the hukou were.

On the surface, it seemed like it was their suggestion, but in reality, they were step by step falling into her trap.

Zhang Yu already had her hukou book ready, just waiting for the procedures the next day.

Of course, she wasn’t worried that Zhang Dagu and the others would cause any trouble, after all, if her hukou wasn’t moved, they couldn’t continue with the demolition procedures of their house.

“I’m thinking of looking into it.

If there’s a suitable child, I’ll go through the adoption process and prepare to adopt one.”

“Haven’t you always been worried that if I don’t get married and have no children, I’ll have no one in my old age?”

“Now that I have a child, what’s there to worry about when I get old?” Zhang Yu asserted that men could be skipped; she didn’t have the time or energy to cater to them.

Zhang Dagu was speechless, “You don’t really think raising a child is easy, do you?”

Zhang Yu extended her finger and waggled it in front of Zhang Dagu, “Of course, I know raising a child isn’t easy.”

“Just look at Zhang Guohua and the others, but that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t raise one.”

“And as for nephews and such, can I be sure they would treat me well?”

“That’s really uncertain.”

“Even one’s own children may not necessarily be filial.” Zhang Yu said with a smile, “It’s all a gamble.”

“I think I might as well give it a try.”

“Don’t tell me adopted children are unreliable.”

“It’s not as if nephews are necessarily reliable either.”

Zhang Dagu stared at Zhang Yu for a long time, realizing this child had truly made up her mind.

“You’re planning to adopt a child, but you need to work.

How will you take care of the child?” Pan Juan, who was in the kitchen, couldn’t stay put any longer.

“Take care of the child?” Zhang Yu had an epiphany, “Right, I forgot.”

“I never thought about raising an infant.”

“If possible, I plan to adopt a child who’s at least old enough for kindergarten.”

“A child old enough for kindergarten?” Everyone was truly shocked.

After all, when adopting a child, they hope the child has no memories, so that the child can be more affectionate.

But unexpectedly, she had requested to choose a child old enough to attend kindergarten, and Chiang Yun just stared at Zhang Yu.

Her heart was full of hope that Zhang Yu would spend a large sum of money, only to end up raising an ungrateful child, which was truly infuriating.

They subtly trampled on Zhang Yi’s reputation in every possible way, but how could that make anyone happy?

When Pan Juan heard this request, she couldn’t help but frown, “Why would you choose a child that big?”

Choose an infant who knows nothing?

Zhang Yu had considered that, “Infants are not suitable for me.”

“I have to work, and it’s not possible, nor do I have a way to be a full-time caregiver for a child.”

“As for hiring a nanny, the cost is very expensive.” Thousands, can’t that money be used for something else?

Of course, there is another important point, “There are quite a few people with sharp tongues.”

“I believe that the matter of me adopting a child can’t be kept a secret.” Whether it’s Chiang Yun, Du Xia, or Zhang Hong, they definitely wouldn’t like to see Zhang Yu and her daughter get along well.

“If I’m not careful, they might let slip that I’m not the child’s birth mother.”

“There are many idle people these days, and this matter is certainly not going to be kept a secret.”

“Since it can’t be concealed, and the child will find out, then why shouldn’t I make things easier for myself?”

“At least let the child know her roots, know her story.”

“That way, even if someone tries to cause trouble, what of it?

It’s bound to be fruitless.”

“Plus, I am not getting any younger, and if the child is older, she can graduate and start working sooner.”

“Actually, if possible, I would like to choose a child who is already in elementary school.” With a kindergarten child, there’s more to do, but at least an elementary school child should be able to take care of themselves.

But there is also a problem: children who have lived in orphanages for a long time sometimes have trouble integrating into society.

Choose a child in elementary school?

Pan Juan really didn’t know what to say, after all, she couldn’t guarantee that people wouldn’t say this and that in front of the child.

For example, if Zhang Yu was dissatisfied with Zhang Guohua and the others, didn’t it mean that they also have dissatisfaction with her?

Actually, the relationship between Zhang Guohua and the others has also changed.

It is no longer like before, and it’s maintained just for the sake of appearances, improving only at certain times.

Such as when they’re plotting against Zhang Yu, Pan Juan’s heart feels desolate.

She used to believe that her family would never be the butt of jokes.

Now she realizes that her own family is also full of flaws.

Previously, Zhang Yu would have never considered moving out or adopting a child.

“As long as you have decided, that’s good,” Pan Juan decided to live her own life peacefully, without worrying about these things.

Zhang Yu hummed in acknowledgment, “Don’t worry, I know what to do.”

“Raising a child means an increase in expenses.” Zhang Yu couldn’t help but think of the future assessment of children, who were described as gold-swallowing beasts.

She didn’t have grand ambitions for the child, nor would she spend a fortune on their upbringing, but the basic expenses were necessary.

Zhang Guohua gave Zhang Yu a disdainful look, “Of course.”

“And it’s not just about the money, the most important thing is that you have to invest an unknown amount of effort into raising the child.”

Zhang Guohua recalled the efforts put into Zhang Yi over the years, constantly sighing.

Of course, if possible, he really hoped she would abandon the idea of adopting a child.

Zhang Yu knew Zhang Guohua was thinking of the energy spent on Zhang Yi, but she also assumed he hoped she would abandon the idea of adoption.

“I just want to experience it.”

“There was a book I read the other day that mentioned people should experience more things.

Some things can only be understood through experience.”

“You talk about marriage, and I am definitely not interested in that experience, but raising a child, I think I can give it a try.”

“Even if it’s tough, at least I will have experienced it.” Zhang Yu was adamant about wanting to have this experience.

Zhang Guohua and the rest knew that some things were truly beyond the possibility of change.
