Landlady who likes to hoard land

This girl is so kind; they should protect her more in the future.

"Oh dear, why are you making things so complicated? Old Dong, why don't you just recognize Cheng Yu as your daughter? Old Xie and I will be your witnesses."

Old Chen's words were astonishing, and everyone else was also taken aback.

Old Chen knew how capable Wang Chengyu was.

Her qigong skills are unmatched to this day, and given that she has saved several special individuals, she will surely become known to more people in the future.

Cheng Yu has no background and is easily manipulated. Elder Dong's status can protect her, which is a good thing for Cheng Yu.

“Mr. Dong, I think Mr. Chen’s suggestion is good. With Cheng Yu around, all the problems are solved. You don’t need to worry about Shu Mei having another relapse. You won’t lose out by adopting her as your daughter.”

After his initial shock, Xie quickly realized that Chen was looking for a backer for Cheng Yu. He felt that their identities weren't enough and wanted to bring in another person. Of course, the more backers the better, so Xie readily agreed.

Without realizing it, Xie Lao had automatically grouped himself and Chen Lao into the same category as Wang Chengyu.

Old Master Dong, however, did not think so. He thought that he was already retired and had Mrs. Dong as a burden. If he recognized Chengyu as his daughter, wouldn't that just cause trouble for her? With Chengyu's abilities, there were plenty of people willing to recognize her as their goddaughter.

For him to adopt Cheng Yu as his daughter was not just a good deal, it was an incredible bargain.

He couldn't hold such a good girl back. He immediately objected.

"No, no, that's not right. Shumei and I are in our current situation, she's just a burden. I can't drag Chengyu into this misery. I'm already incredibly grateful for her help!"

Wang Chengyu had originally intended to refuse, as she understood what Elder Chen and Elder Xie meant. She also didn't want to take advantage of others.

But when she saw Mr. Dong describe him and Mrs. Dong as a burden, she felt very upset.

Standing to the side, Mr. Dong, waving his hands frantically and looking somewhat humble, seemed afraid of being a burden to her, which suddenly made her see things in a new light.

If we disregard everything else, she would be willing to come and take care of them often. Such a respectable and kind old woman deserves to be cared for and enjoy her later years in peace.

"Professor Dong, I would love to be your daughter. You are such a great scientist, it would be a great honor for me to become your goddaughter. However, I am not in Beijing and may not be able to come here more than a few times a year. I can't be of much help."

"Oh, isn't that perfect? ​​You don't have to be around them all the time, so Old Master Dong won't feel guilty. You can just visit each other during holidays! Even your own son and daughter only come home for holidays all year round!"

After listening for most of the day, Dean Li began to chime in.

He also thought it was a good thing. If Cheng Yu recognized Elder Dong as his godfather, he would come to Beijing two or three times a year. If he encountered any difficult cases in the future, he could use Elder Dong's name to ask for help.

It has to be said that these people are all shrewd; they show genuine concern, but also scheming.

"This this……"

Mr. Dong was at a loss for what to do.

Dean Li blinked at him frantically, his eyes almost cramping up.

Fine, he'll be selfish this once and adopt the girl as his daughter. At worst, he'll genuinely treat her like a daughter and love her dearly.

There was also the recent matter of the government wanting to rehire him, but at that time his wife was still unconscious, and he originally had no intention of agreeing.

Now that his wife is recovering, he can totally agree and protect her for a while. With that thought in mind, he no longer hesitates.

"Then you old folks will be my witnesses. From now on, Chengyu will be my and Shumei's daughter!"

"That's right! Why think so much! This is fate between you two."

Dean Li was pleased, and Elder Chen and Elder Xie were also satisfied!

They all looked at Chengyu with smiles, waiting for her to express her opinion.

"Father Dong!"

Wang Chengyu directly demonstrated her attitude through her actions.

"Hey!"

Old Master Dong was overjoyed and quickly agreed. He never expected to receive such an outstanding daughter in his old age. Heaven had been kind to him; perhaps it was making amends for his hardship in the first half of his life!

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The others laughed heartily together.

"Shh, my godmother is still asleep, keep your voices down."

Seeing Madam Dong's uneasy frown in her sleep, Wang Chengyu spoke up to remind the others.

"Oh, so you're protecting her now!" Dean Li joked.

"Old Dong, hurry up and buy a lottery ticket! Your luck is incredible!" Old Chen laughed.

Mr. Dong smiled and waved his hand.

"I won't buy anything. Everything is just right for me right now. What if God gets jealous of me and takes away my good fortune?"

"I hope God will neither give me anything more nor take anything away from me. This is fine!"

Tears welled up in Mr. Dong's eyes again.

The entire ward was filled with a joyful and warm atmosphere.

New bonds are formed here; kinship without blood ties is just as warm and sincere.

This is just right!

Wang Chengyu formally recognized the Dong couple as her godparents, and she did what a daughter should do.

After Mrs. Dong woke up, she indeed clung to her. She patiently comforted her and accompanied her to the examinations. Mrs. Dong's condition became more and more stable.

A week later, the doctor announced that Mrs. Dong could be discharged and go home, and would only need to have regular check-ups in the future.

The family happily packed their things.

"Finally, we can leave this place!"

Mr. Dong was filled with emotion. He had hope for the future, and he looked much younger these past few days.

“You don’t need to come back anymore!” Wang Chengyu echoed with a smile.

"We're not coming back. Let's go home!"

With his right hand supporting his wife and his left hand holding Chengyu, Old Master Dong walked out of the hospital.

This was Wang Chengyu's first visit to Old Dong's home. Old Dong's home was a detached two-story house, which the government had specially allocated for the elderly couple to live in.

Although the house is a bit old, it's clear that it has been carefully renovated, and the layout and structure inside are very comfortable.

"Yanzi, Mom will take you to see your room. You said you got married, but Mom doesn't remember at all. I've forgotten so many things because of this illness."

I only remember your past. How did you end up marrying someone so far away? Your father and I didn't stop you!

I'd completely forgotten I have two grandsons! Oh dear, I've been sick for so long. When will you bring my two grandsons so I can see them?

Mrs. Dong chattered on and on as she led Wang Chengyu to see her room.

“Mom, you tried to stop them, but you couldn’t. They have a lot of schoolwork to do, and their summer tutoring classes are all booked up. I’ll bring them to see you again during the National Day holiday.”

In preparation for his departure, Wang Chengyu gave Madam Dong a heads-up, saying that she had married and moved to S Province, and that her children were at home and she would be returning in a few days.

"Kids these days are too tired; they need to relax."

Madam Dong held Chengyu's hand and instructed her...

"Yes, don't worry, they won't get tired."

Mr. Dong has had his house cleaned up again in the past few days, and all the bedding has been replaced with brand new ones.

“Chengyu, you can stay at my house whenever you come to Beijing. This room will be yours from now on. See if there’s anything you need, and I’ll get it for you.”

Old Master Dong arranged everything with great care, fearing that Wang Chengyu might have some dissatisfaction.

"Dad, there's no need to buy anything more. I don't live here often, so this is already very good."

In front of Madam Dong, Wang Chengyu addressed her as "Dad" and "Mom" directly to avoid arousing her suspicion.
