The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress-Chapter 953 - 931: Top Student in the 1980s 59

Yu Shen hung up the phone, thinking that Anning’s situation was indeed a bit tricky.

This can’t be forced through strong measures.

If you force He Daniu to take the two kids back, they might just hang themselves out of despair.

After all, none of the three can earn money, and they can’t make ends meet. In a moment of hopelessness, they might try to end their lives, which would also negatively impact Anning.

Besides, they aren’t heinous criminals; they haven’t committed any crimes. Can you really push someone to death?

Even if someone did commit a crime, as long as it wasn’t murder or arson, the country still gives people the chance to reform.

No matter where you go, these three people still need to be taken care of.

No matter what happens or who you encounter, unless it’s a last resort, you can’t leave people with no way out. If there’s a chance to give them a way to survive, you have to try.

After thinking for a while, Yu Shen put on his coat, took a ride to the Jing University Entrance.

When he arrived, He Daniu was squatting at the Jing University Entrance.

It wasn’t just her now; she had brought He Ming and He Li with her.

The two kids didn’t look good either, wearing tattered clothes, extremely thin, and their complexions looked bad.

Yu Shen walked over and asked, "Are you He Daniu?"

He Daniu looked up at Yu Shen, "Who are you?"

Yu Shen smiled, "I’m Anning’s uncle. She told me about your situation. You know, Anning is just a kid, expecting her to support her younger siblings when she can’t even support herself, is that realistic?"

He Daniu lowered her head and said nothing.

Yu Shen continued, "Anning isn’t heartless. She called me, and that’s why I’m here. How about we handle things this way?"

Yu Shen kindly discussed with He Daniu, "You said you can’t earn money and can’t support your siblings. Fine, I’ll arrange for you to return to County Y, find you a proper job so you can earn money, and apply for some financial assistance for you. Though it’s not much, it will help your siblings survive. Look, your siblings are already thirteen, and you have a house, right? As long as they have a place to stay and there’s land in your village, you can rent the land out and receive some grain each year, which is enough to feed them. With the assistance, they can go to school. As long as they work a bit hard, they can manage..."

"But, I..."

He Daniu wanted to say something.

Yu Shen interrupted with a smile, "Are you thinking of letting Anning provide you a good life? I can tell you, it’s impossible. Anning is just a minor. There isn’t any law that obliges a minor sister to support her younger siblings, plus Anning isn’t part of the He Family anymore. Her surname is Zhang now. She hasn’t had a meal in the He Family’s house since birth, and her guardianship was officially transferred to Zhang Heping years ago. She’s not connected to the He Family. Even when she grows up, you can’t rely on her. If you make a fuss, it won’t end well for either side. If we can settle this peacefully, isn’t it better for everyone?"

Those words really moved He Daniu.

She actually understood Yu Shen was right.

Anning is just a kid. On what basis should she support her siblings?

There’s no such justice in any family.

Moreover, Anning isn’t part of the Old He Family. Her surname is Zhang. They’ve long severed ties with the He Family. There’s nothing they could do if she chooses not to support them.

"So, what kind of job can you get for me?"

He Daniu clearly showed interest.

Yu Shen said, "I’ll find you a factory job. You may not be able to do skilled work, but you can handle logistics. And if that’s too much, working in the canteen is also an option."

Upon hearing that, He Daniu nodded enthusiastically, "Sure, I can work. As long as I can earn money, I can do anything."

After much talking, Yu Shen managed to persuade the three of them to leave.

Later, Anning told He Erniu about this.

He Erniu felt quite fortunate. Luckily, she didn’t go to school that day; otherwise, if He Daniu had caught her, things would have been more complicated.

In fact, He Daniu never knew that He Erniu got into university.

She always thought He Erniu was still working as a nanny.

However, He Daniu might not recognize Anning, but she would surely recognize He Erniu anywhere.

If He Daniu had seen He Erniu, she would have definitely caused a scene and tried to burden He Erniu with He Ming and He Li.

Regardless, He Daniu went back.

He Erniu kept an eye on her for quite a while after.

Yu Shen made arrangements for He Daniu’s job, and he applied for some aid for He Ming and He Li, ensuring those two kids could at least live properly.

The three of them had some means to subsist and calmed down a bit.

The primary reason being that, over the years, they’ve encountered too many hardships, especially He Ming and He Li. They experienced so much suffering; they were timid and wouldn’t have come to the Capital if they had any other choice.

Now that they have a way to survive, they naturally don’t dare to cause trouble anymore.

Anning learned about the He Family’s situation and started paying some attention to Zhang Fugui’s house.

Zhang Fugui was also released from prison. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Li Guilan was somewhat better off than Liu Zhi.

Liu Zhi remarried, but Li Guilan stayed and struggled at home.

However, it wasn’t easy for her to support a paralyzed son alone.

With only Li Guilan at home, it naturally gave rise to many problems.

Bachelors and idle men in the village took an interest in Li Guilan.

Zhang Fugui also had brothers. Initially, Li Guilan sought their help, but later on, unable to manage, she stopped asking.

Li Guilan ended up getting entangled with several idle men in the village.

She slept with them, and they gave her money, thereby preventing Zhang Qiang from starving.

She thought her life would improve once Zhang Fugui got out of prison.

However, Li Guilan didn’t expect to find herself pregnant after Zhang Fugui was released.

This threw Li Guilan into a panic.

She dared not tell Zhang Fugui the truth.

Upon release, Zhang Fugui came to know about some of Li Guilan’s questionable activities but couldn’t blame her.

Li Guilan was just trying to survive, and Zhang Fugui had no room for resentment.

However, if he discovered she was pregnant, he certainly wouldn’t accept raising another man’s child.

After pondering for a while, Li Guilan decided to hide it from Zhang Fugui.

Luckily, her pregnancy wasn’t obvious yet, being just over a month, so she could conceal it.

Later, when Li Guilan was about to give birth, she had a fall and claimed it was a premature birth, but in fact, the child was born full-term.

This time, Li Guilan had a son, a perfectly healthy one.

With this son, Zhang Fugui cared much less for the now grown-up but more troublesome to take care of, paralyzed Zhang Qiang.

Li Guilan was busy raising the younger son and didn’t pay much attention to Zhang Qiang, who didn’t survive long after.
