Chapter 1638: Chapter 1072: Heroine of the Republic 46

Hu Zi stayed in the hospital for a week, and over the weekend, An Yi entrusted the two children to the sisters to look after and then took Hu Zi to Lin County. She went to the street office, explained the reasons, and the circumstances at the time, intending to adopt Hu Zi, presenting the certificates from the school and the village. When they learned An Yi had already adopted two daughters and wished to adopt Hu Zi, they were shocked.

"Why don’t you get married and have kids yourself? The first two children were already enough trouble for you, how can you still...?"

"I lost the ability to have children during the war years, and so did my two sisters. The three of us can support three children without issues. Hu Zi is willing, and my current salary is enough to pay for their tuition and living expenses. I plan to send him to school, and the child has agreed. You have no reason to refuse."

The words ’lost the ability to have children’ deeply shocked the few middle-aged women. They couldn’t even bring themselves to ask why she lost the ability, the implications were too broad to think about. But An Yi’s conditions were indeed more reliable than the child staying with his biological father.

On Hu Zi’s side, they specifically found people to investigate, confirming that An Yi had indeed saved him, and that the women needed a boy to support them.

After careful consideration, the migration permit was finally issued. Hu Zi knelt and thanked the comrades of the street office for their care over the years. Then, with his household registration transfer certificate and food relationship transfer certificate, as he was about to leave, An Yi suddenly turned to them: "If his biological father asks..."

"Don’t worry, we won’t tell him, and the last time he abandoned the severely injured Hu Zi in Dingyuan County, it already constituted a crime. He didn’t get prosecuted for it, would he dare to come again? We’ll say Liu Tian is already dead."

Liu Tian is dead, reborn as An Hu. Hu is an ancient ceremonial vessel; simply calling him An Hu would be too common, so he was named Hu, like in ’amber’. His nickname remains Hu Zi. An Hu really liked the name and gladly accepted his rebirth.

The journey from Dingyuan County to Lin County took a full day. It was the weekend, the office wasn’t open, so they stayed in a hotel for the night. Monday morning they handled the affairs and hurried to catch a bus to Dingyuan County, hoping to arrive before the end of the workday. For Hu Zi’s household registration issues, Angel and Anna took a day’s leave to stay home with the children.

Even though the two counties were only two or three hundred kilometers apart, going back and forth required two days, switching between ox carts, horse carriages, and buses. Ultimately, they still couldn’t make it to Dingyuan County before the offices closed, and when they arrived at the county town, it was already dark.

"It’s okay, we can take care of it tomorrow morning, no rush. I requested two days off from school just in case something might delay us."

An Yi, this time in Lin County, first went to the street office to inform them of the situation. Then the street office took Liu Tian’s identity information to the police station, first changed the name, then transferred the household registration and food relationship.

While An Yi’s household registration was still rural, she was the homeowner, so An Hu could be registered under her name, but the household registration attribute had to change.

Because she would become An Hu’s mother, the child would naturally follow the mother’s household registration, and consequently, An Hu couldn’t keep his urban household registration.

But An Yi didn’t want to transfer the registration for now; at least during those special ten years, rural registration was better than urban registration.

After careful thought and with An Hu’s consent, they went to Liujiatun to find the captain, and successfully transferred An Hu’s food relationship and household registration under Anna’s name.

The house in Liujiatun was Anna’s, and An Yi transferred the children’s registration there later as well, so An Hu smoothly transitioned from urban registration to rural registration and reasonably lived with the An family.

At this point, Captain Liu and others were thoroughly convinced of An Yi’s abilities: "Next time you adopt a child, should we learn to get used to it?"

An Yi felt a bit embarrassed: "The children are pitiful, with no biological mother, abused by a stepmother and biological father, nearly beaten to death. How could I not intervene when I saw such a situation? He’s this big, and doesn’t fit the orphanage policies. Hey, I’m actually quite troubled, but when my sympathy runs deep, I can’t stop myself."

"I’m afraid you’ll become famous for adopting children, and everyone around who doesn’t want daughters will throw them at you, how will you manage?"

"Well, I’m not going to take just any child from any family, it’s all about fate. I’ll try to restrain myself in the future."
