Chapter 381 - 383: Eavesdropping by the Corner_1
Qin Jin washed the clothes and quietly removed the embroidered name from the wrap.
Then he hung them out in the courtyard to dry.
He confided to Li Qiao, "I’ve been thinking, after the announcement is made and if no one claims the child, we should care for her for now. Once you’ve given birth, we can register them as twins."
Li Qiao was puzzled. Why had he so suddenly changed his mind after being so firm before? Was it because the child was too cute? But, regardless, accepting the child was better than complaining all day at home. "It’s great that you agree. Now, please notify your eldest sister and second sister to delay returning to Beijing by a day. Tomorrow, we’ll sort out an adoption certificate for the child first. If no one ends up claiming her, we’ll register her directly when ours is born, so we don’t need to go through the adoption process twice."
"Okay, I’ll do as you say," Qin Jin said, though in his heart, he was already contemplating how to return the child to her parents at an appropriate time.
Li Qiao smiled, "Getting a beautiful daughter without even giving birth, we’ve actually struck it lucky."
A twinge flickered in the corner of Qin Jin’s eye. Would a child who came to them without a cost be filial?
The typical example was Li Jinhua.
Li Shengcai treated her even better than his own children, but she repeatedly betrayed him, an ungrateful wretch!

After informing Li Jiaoyang and Li Jiaojiao, Qin Jin returned and encountered Yu Xiu and her elder brother at the entrance of the village.
