Chapter 1047 - Splurging Like A Baller (1/2)
“What a fool.” Qiao Nan rolled her eyes. “Don’t you know of the policy in our country? If the child is mine and Brother Zhai, and we have our own child, I will not be able to give birth to the child. If the two children are born at the same time, we can claim that they are twins.”
“How about adoption?” She could not stop her brother from having a child. Zhai Hua was thinking hard of ways such that it would work for everyone. “The child will be Zhai Sheng and your child. By the time the child is registered under your household, I can adopt the child.”
Once she adopted the child, Qiao Nan would then be allowed to have children with Zhai Sheng.
“Are you sure that by then, you are suitable to adopt a child?” Qiao Nan was not from the law faculty. She was not familiar with the related laws.
Anyway, in the previous life, when she gave up the idea of having her own child and decided to adopt someone else’s child, she discovered that it was not that easy to adopt a child. As soon as she realized that she did not meet the requirements, she closed the website and did not read the details.
“I don’t remember very well, but according to the adoption law, it seems to say that the adopted family must provide the child with a complete family.” In other words, if Zhai Hua was without a man, she did not fulfill the requirement to adopt a child.
Zhai Hua pulled her hair in frustration. “Is there a third method?”
She only wanted to have a child. Why was it such a difficult task? Why was it that if she did not have a boyfriend, none of the methods worked for her?
“The third method is more expensive, and you have to read up on this technology. This is only hearsay, and I don’t know the details. You should have heard about test tube baby. The technology is called in vitro fertilization. It means that an egg is combined with a sperm outside the body, in vitro. Then, it is implanted in the woman’s uterus. If the surrogate pregnancy is successful, then the baby will be given birth after ten months of pregnancy.”
“Hmm…” Zhai Hua was clueless about the technical aspects of this technology.
Qiao Nan sounded very serious and convincing as she was explaining to her. Zhai Hua felt incredible and at the same time, she took Qiao Nan’s words for real. “What happens next?” Until now, she had heard about in vitro fertilization, test tube baby, and surrogate mother. But all these did not seem relevant to her situation.
“The reason why a woman can have a baby is that the ovaries can produce eggs. After a certain period, the ovarian function cannot be maintained. Right now, you are still young and can ovulate normally. You can go to a specialized department for them to take out the healthy eggs in your body and to freeze and store them for later use. In that case, you can take your time to look for the man that you like. By then, even if you are too old to have a child, you can get the man to provide the sperms and arrange for a surrogate mother. The doctor can perform the in vitro fertilization and it might work.”
Qiao Nan had provided many solutions to her problem. “But you have to know that among the three methods, this last method would cost a lot of money.”
Zhai Hua was dumbstruck. “Nan Nan, how do you know all these complicated technologies and details?!”
Before having a conversation with Qiao Nan, she had never heard of these methods. “Regarding the third method that you mentioned, does our country have this technology?”
“Our country does not, but you can check out other countries.” Qiao Nan pressed her lips tightly, pain evident in her eyes.
She knew all these because she was driven to nuts by her mother in the previous life. She had no other choice but to use all means and methods to find out the related information on how she could have a child of her own.
These three methods had something in common—it required a lot of money!
Qiao Nan did not have money. If she really had the child, the child would not have legal citizens.h.i.+p in the country.
