Chapter 735 I have to go back to my hometown.
The leader briefly explained the process to her.
Tang Xiaofen's smile froze after hearing this.
Do I have to go back to my hometown?
Do I still need to bring my original household registration booklet to process this?
But the household registration book is in Jiang Mei's hands, how could she possibly give it to her?
"I remember your daughter is in kindergarten?"
"Yes."
"Then we need to get the household registration done as soon as possible, because the child will need it when he/she starts primary school."
"Okay, I'll get on it as soon as possible. But this job..."
"I'll grant you a few days off. Go back and take care of your household registration first."
"Okay, thank you, boss."
After thanking her supervisor, Tang Xiaofen took the documents for transferring her household registration and left the office.
Sister Zhao was still outside, looking curiously at her hand, "Your household registration can be transferred now?"
Tang Xiaofen nodded, but she wasn't very happy; her face was full of worry.
Sister Zhao looked puzzled.
"What's wrong? Being able to transfer your household registration is a good thing, why aren't you happy?"
Tang Xiaofen sighed and said, "To transfer the household registration, we need to get the original household registration booklet first. My daughter and I both have our household registrations at the Wang family's place, which should be in Jiang Mei's hands. She hates me so much, she definitely won't give them to me."
"Oh no? What should we do then?"
Tang Xiaofen shook her head. "I don't know either."
She paused for a moment and then said, "Let's talk about it later. If it doesn't work out, we can give her some benefits and see what she says."
"No, I have an idea."
Tang Xiaofen looked at her in surprise, "You have an idea?"
Sister Zhao nodded and said, "It's just a household registration booklet. Go ask her for it first. If she refuses, just say you lost it and ask her to make you a new one."
"Huh? This... is it something I can do just because I want to?"
"Yes, I had a neighbor whose house leaked when it rained, and his household registration booklet got soaked and ruined. So he went to get a replacement. He just told them he couldn't find his household registration booklet, and they replaced it for him."
Is it that simple?
Are there any other requirements?
"Well..." Sister Zhao thought for a moment and said, "It might require the head of the household to handle it. Who is the head of your household?"
“Wang Jianguo’s father, but he’s paralyzed. If he weren’t paralyzed, it would be easier to talk to him; he’s easier to talk to than Jiang Mei.”
“Then you should tell them that the homeowner is paralyzed and can’t get it done, and then you can take your ID card to ask them to help you. You have the court’s divorce decree, right? If that doesn’t work, just tell them the truth and secretly give them a little something. It’s a small favor, so it’s better to ask them than to ask Jiang Mei.”
Tang Xiaofen nodded and said, "That's true, but my child is still in school, so what do you mean by this..."
Sister Zhao waved her hand, "I'll take care of it for you for a few days."
"you help me?"
"Well, we're so familiar with each other, how about I help you carry them for a few days?"
"But...wouldn't that be too much trouble for me?"
“It’s okay. My child is all grown up, and my parents-in-law have passed away. I have nothing to do after work and I’m bored out of my mind. It’s good to have a child. I’m getting used to taking care of my grandchild in advance.”
Hearing her say that, Tang Xiaofen finally agreed, "Sister Zhao, thank you so much."
"You're welcome, it's nothing. Why don't you bring your child to my house to play after school today, so they can get used to it beforehand?"
"Okay, thanks."
Tang Xiaofen thought to herself that if the child really couldn't adapt, or if he caused trouble for Sister Zhao's family, she wouldn't leave him with them.
She took her along; it wouldn't matter if she missed a few days of kindergarten.
It's free for kids to ride in the car, it's just a bit of a hassle.
Unexpectedly, her daughter had a great time at Sister Zhao's house. Sister Zhao's family hadn't had any children for many years, and she, her husband, and her children all adored the little girl.
That put her mind at ease.
After settling her daughter in, she went to her supervisor's office to submit a leave request.
……
Lin Yuyao had just arrived at Ye Lian's house when Ye Lian grabbed her hand and said, "Yuyao, I won't be able to come to your house to help you take care of the child tomorrow. Your work is closer, so come back and visit when you have time. Just for a few days, and I'll be back in a few days."
"what happened?"
“Your uncle called to say that your grandmother is sick, and this time she is quite ill. I don’t know if she can make it through. I have to go back and check on her. If she really doesn’t make it, I have to watch her breathe her last and see her off.”
Lin Yuyao was startled. Calculating the time, it seemed to be this year, this very month.
"what did the doctor say?"
Ye Lian shook her head and sighed, "Oh dear, what else can I say? It's an old ailment, and I don't know if she can pull through this time."
Lin Yuyao knew that her grandmother was not going to make it this time.
"Mom, don't be too sad, Grandma..."
Ye Lian raised her hand to stop her from continuing.
"Don't worry, I understand. She's getting on in years, and her health has been poor all these years. She was bound to come to this sooner or later. And...sigh! It's almost time for her to reach her end."
Ye Lian had long been mentally prepared; everyone gets old eventually, and she wasn't unable to accept it.
"Then I'll buy you a plane ticket. You go first, and I'll go in a couple of days."
Ye Lian waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, I haven't gone back to check yet. I'll go back and see how things are going. If they pull through, that's fine. If they don't, then you can come back for the funeral."
But Lin Yuyao knew that this time she probably wouldn't make it through.
But it's not absolute.
So she nodded, "Okay, I'll buy you a plane ticket."
"No need, I've bought a train ticket and I'm leaving first thing tomorrow morning."
"Oh? Train tickets? That'll take two or three days, that'll be such a hassle. Mom, go and cancel the train tickets, I'll buy you plane tickets."
Ye Lian pressed her hand and said, "Girl, I said I'd take the train not to save money, but because I can't fly."
"What... happened?"
"It's nothing, I just can't sit. I had one last time, and it was so uncomfortable that my heart was about to jump out of my chest, and my ears hurt the whole way. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would worry."
Lin Yuyao frowned.
The sister-in-law holding the child next to her said, "Last time, Mom and my aunt had a fight over moving the ancestral graves, and Mom fainted from anger. When she went to the hospital for a checkup, they said Mom had some cardiovascular disease. I don't remember the specifics, but anyway, she can't fly."
Lin Yuyao was shocked and angry. "Mother, why didn't you tell me about something so important?"
"It's nothing serious. The doctor said I was just upset and prescribed some medicine for me. He also told me to stay calm and not to fly."
I really don't know what to say about her; not being able to fly is really inconvenient.
"The train journey will take several days, Mom. Are you sure you can manage on your own?"
“Sure, of course I’m not stupid. How could I not have a good ride? Besides, I already told your uncle he’d pick me up at the station.”
That's what they say, but at that time, not only was the train station in chaos, but the train itself was also not safe.
But there's no other way; this is the only option.
That evening, Lin Yuyao told Fu Huaiyi about it and said, "If Grandma goes, I'll have to go back to my hometown. What do you think we should do with the two kids?"
