Chapter 1616: Chapter 1616 Proper Arrangement 2

Taking the already sleeping little baby girl, Director Lin promised, "Please rest assured, two leaders, we will do our utmost to raise the child to adulthood. The children are the flowers of our nation, the future of our country."

Feng Qingxue asked Lu Jiang to place the basket containing milk powder and biscuits on the office desk, with a hundred yuan and thirty pounds of grain tickets beneath. She said to Director Lin, "This child has a bitter fate, born and left under a car tire, nearly losing her life in the cold. We’ll rely on you in the future, Director Lin. While we’re in Wucheng, we’ll send some money and grain tickets or food every month as the child’s upbringing expenses. Even after leaving Wucheng, we’ll send living expenses on time."

This was the result of her and Lu Jiang’s discussion on the way.

They couldn’t adopt the child, but providing some living expenses each month was not a problem.

Director Lin had not yet answered when Director Liu said, "You don’t need to send grain tickets; newborn infants get a supply of eight pounds of rations per month. All orphans do, otherwise how could they survive?"

"Yes, leader, with the state in place, as long as there are no health issues, all children can survive," though it may be a tough life.

Feng Qingxue smiled slightly after hearing Director Liu and Director Lin’s words, "That’s true, but since we were the ones who found the child, not contributing anything makes us feel uneasy."

"You are too kind. Only a kind person would feel this way. If the abandoning parents had a bit of your kindness, these poor children wouldn’t be deserted." A flash of admiration appeared in Director Lin’s eyes as he looked down at the little baby girl in his arms, "This child and you two are destined to meet. It’s thanks to you that the child survived. Please give her a name!"

Instead of answering, Feng Qingxue asked, "What’s the surname of the children in the orphanage?"

"The boys take the surname Guo, and the girls take the surname Dang," Director Lin answered.

Guo? Dang?

The state’s Dang, the party’s Dang.

Feng Qingxue somewhat understood the meaning of these surnames, tilted her head in thought for a moment, and said, "Dang, that’s a good surname. Dang Nian’en, she shall be called Dang Nian’en, not to remember that we saved her, but to remember the party and the country’s grace to her. Without the party and the country, she wouldn’t even have the chance to live."

Director Lin repeated the name twice, "Dang Nian’en, good name, good name, she shall be called Dang Nian’en."

Feng Qingxue then pointed at the biscuits in the basket, "We weren’t prepared for this visit, so we just bought some biscuits for the children in the welfare institution to eat. We will come again when we have time."

"You’ve been too kind." Director Lin couldn’t help but feel a warmth rising in his heart.

"We’ve bought them already, so Comrade Lin, just accept them. It’s getting late, we should head back."

Director Lin handed Dang Nian’en to a staff member nearby and personally saw them to the gate.

Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue bade farewell to Director Liu and Han Ping and his wife, reminding, "Xiaohan, if you have the time, come often to check on the child’s situation. If there’s anything needed, you can find us at the troop."

Han Ping promptly said, "Don’t worry, I’ll quickly find a willing family to adopt the child."

Some people have children and are unwilling to raise them, while others never have children in their lifetime. Han Ping works at the police station and has a wide network, always able to find families without children.

Lu Jiang nodded slightly, "If someone deliberately abandoned or even attempted to murder this child, you must continue the investigation."

"Indeed, they must be brought to justice, let them feel the consequence of being sentenced for attempted murder, only then can we prevent this situation caused by gender bias from spreading further," Feng Qingxue said.

Director Liu naturally agreed wholeheartedly.
