Boss, He’s Becoming a Father [Arc 1] Chapter 39.1: The Prodigal Son (86)

“You…” Wang’s lips trembled, and she couldn’t say a complete sentence for a long time.

 

Shao Dabao asked again: “I bought you clothes and prepared food for you. Is there anything you are not satisfied with?”

 

“You you you you…”

 

Seeing that Mrs Wang was speechless, Lao He on the side said directly: “You have prepared for your mother, what about me?”

 

Shao Dabao heard the words, looked him up and down, and said, “You never raised me, don’t you have a son?”

 

When he mentioned his own son, Lao He suddenly remembered and said, “Where is your brother? Give your brother back to us.”

 

Mrs Wang immediately remembered this.

 

The child is innocent, even if his parents are not good people, but Shao Yu intends to keep this child by his side due to his past affection.

 

Shao Dabao is also very clear about this decision, after all, he also understands that it is not good for the child to be with the old couple.

 

“My brother follows me, and I will take good care of him.” Shao Dabao said.

 

“No, that’s my son, how can you snatch my son!” Lao He said righteously.

 

Shao Dabao glanced at him and asked, “Do you support him with five cents?”

 

Old He immediately said: “Even if I have no money, the child will follow me unless you give me three hundred taels of silver.”

 

“Think it through, the child will follow us, and he will have no worries about food and clothing.” Shao Dabao said.

 

Lao He seemed to have caught something and emphasized: “That is my own son. Even if I go to beg for food, I will not starve him.”

 

Shao Dabao looked at Wang and asked, “Do you think so too? This child can live a normal life with us, if he follows him, maybe he will be sold one day. ”

 

Wang did not speak.

 

But Lao He still clamored for three hundred taels of silver.

 

“Okay, I’ll go back and bring the baby.”

 

After Shao Dabao finished speaking, he immediately turned around and left without any hesitation.

 

He thought very clearly that as long as he was not threatened, nothing could threaten him.

 

Along the way, Shao Dabao looked a little solemn. Although he didn’t want to be threatened, he still felt uncomfortable when he thought that his younger brother might have a miserable future.

 

Amao suddenly patted him on the shoulder and said, “I thought I saw Daddy when you were like that just now.”

 

“Huh?” Shao Dabao was a little puzzled.

 

A Mao smiled and said, “You were born from Daddy, and now you do things like Daddy.”

 

Hearing this compliment, Shao Dabao couldn’t help but raise the corner of his mouth.

 

Shao Yu, who was waiting at home, listened to his two sons talking about the cause and effect. Seeing that Shao Dabao really wanted to send the child there, he did not stop him.

 

Shao Xiaocao on the side was a little reluctant. The child is only one year old now, and he only stayed in the Shao family for a day, but it is impossible to fake something like blood connection.

 

Even though her heart was full of reluctance, Shao Xiaocao didn’t stop him, she just said, “I’ll wash his face again.”

 

Shao Xiaocao took a handkerchief, dipped it in warm water and gently stroked his face.

 

The one-year-old child was obviously not taught by his parents, and he couldn’t even speak clearly until now. After Shao Xiaocao wiped his face clean, he grinned at her.

 

Although the child has a yellow face and thin skin, the two eyes are dark, which looks particularly painful.

 

“I’ll send him away.” Shao Dabao reached out to take the child.

 

Shao Xiaocao turned to avoid and said, “I’ll give him another meal.”

 

Shao Dabao stood aside, watching Shao Xiaocao busying around, until everything that could be done for the child was done, Shao Xiaocao handed the child over reluctantly.

 

Shao Dabao held the child and stood there for a while without moving. For some reason, he thought of Zhang Meng, and remembered that he lost his sister in a bet.

 

He just thinks that sending his younger brother over now is like giving his younger sister to Zhang Meng in the past, it’s like putting a sheep into the tiger’s mouth.

 

A Mao was hesitant to speak, but after all, this was someone else’s child, so he couldn’t say much.

 

Shao Yu smiled and asked, “What will happen if the child falls into the hands of a gambler who owes a lot of debt?”

 

Shao Dabao didn’t think about it at all, and said, “Sell the child and exchange money for the opportunity to turn over the book.”

 

This is the mental journey of a gambler, and Shao Dabao is very familiar with it.

 

Shao Yu asked again: “How will you sell children?”

 

Shao Dabao immediately said, “I’ll ask Cai Yazi to collect people.”

 

Three hundred taels of silver, neither Shao Yu nor Shao Dabao are willing to give it to Lao He, but now Lao He, who is desperate, will definitely sell the child.

 

Such a child is only a few taels of silver to buy.

 

Shao Xiaocao heard such an arrangement, and her face immediately showed hope.

 

“Dad, how do I arrange this child after I bought it?” Shao Dabao asked.

 

Shao Dabao understands very well that children can be bought, but how to handle it afterwards depends on Shao Yu’s opinion.

 

“I’m not afraid of having more mouths at home.” Shao Yu said this, intending to keep the child by his side.

 

Shao Xiaocao and Shao Dabao looked at each other at this time, both with joy on their faces.

 

Shao Yu understood that the child was born from the same mother as the two brothers and sisters. The two brothers and sisters were living well now. If they knew that such a younger brother was suffering outside, they would be worried. So he decided to let the child stay with him. The child was still young, so he can just teach him well.

 

Shao Dabao didn’t hesitate any longer, and went to Cai Yazi with the child in his arms.

 

Cai Yazi was a local yaman, who had received Shao Yu’s kindness and was considered one of his own. After Shao Dabao explained the cause and effect, Cai Yazi immediately patted his chest and promised to come down, and look at the child again, fearing that he would recognize the wrong person.
