Chapter 416: Driven Out of Liu Yang Village (2)_1
"Dad, do we really have to change Tang Xin’s household registration? Can’t we just incorporate her into our family registry without changing it?"
After breakfast, while Tang Xin was washing the dishes, Xin Er stealthily pulled her father aside in the courtyard and urgently voiced her plea.
Today was the day Mo Qingze was taking Tang Xin to the Government Office to change her registration. Xin Er genuinely considered Tang Xin a good friend and couldn’t bear to see her enter into servant status.
Mo Qingze looked at his little daughter with a gentle expression and was not angry at her somewhat presumptuous request, "Xin Er, I can’t agree to your request."
Seeing his little daughter’s eyes dim with dashed hopes, he continued, "You’re growing up day by day and should understand some principles of interacting with others. Your dad isn’t often at home and can’t instruct you carefully, so you should learn more from your sister. In the future, you will understand why I didn’t agree to your request."
The ten-year-old girl looked at her father, puzzled by his words. Out of admiration and respect for her father, Xin Er did not throw a tantrum as some unreasonable young girls might. Still, she felt somewhat distressed and remained quiet for a moment.
Mo Qingze sighed softly, patted her head, and said nothing more.
Tang Xin finished washing the dishes and encountered Mo Qingze and his daughter coming in from outside. Seeing Xin Er’s complexion not looking too well, and feeling guilty, she guessed the gist of the matter. Moved, she stepped forward, took Xin Er’s hand, and her smile did not seem forced.
