Sir, can you marry me?

Chapter 195

Ling Yuxuan was stunned when he heard this.From ancient times to the present, the world's most important thing is to inherit the ancestors. Establishing a son is not based on virtue, and establishing a son is not based on elder.The eldest brother is the eldest son, and did not leave his father a grandson, so it is his turn to be the heir of the Ling family.If the eldest brother has a son and he is born as a descendant, the Ling family will have a situation where the son of the descendant and the grandson of the descendant will compete for the heir.

"Which of the third brother's children does father plan to choose as the eldest brother's adoptive child?" Ling Yuxuan asked.When it comes to adopting children, any family will first choose among the brothers of the same clan 'and the closer the blood, the better', and only the brothers of the same clan who lack sons themselves will adopt a son with a foreign surname.

"Jingquan." Prime Minister Ling said immediately.

Ling Yuxuan was stunned again, and said: "Father, Jingquan is the eldest son of the third brother, and the third brother may not be willing." Does the eldest son of the third brother adopt the eldest brother's name as the eldest grandson?Father doesn't think that doing so will mess up the succession sequence of the Ling family clan in the capital?How could someone as calculating as my father forget this?
"I propose that your third brother will definitely agree." Prime Minister Ling said confidently, "As long as your eldest brother has a son who continues his incense, and your mother has a grandson, she will be much less hostile to you."

Father's idea...

Ling Yuxuan smiled bitterly, shaking his head inwardly.What the mother blamed was that his appearance caused the father to abandon her son, causing her son to lose his will to live and die.If the father now adopts a noble eldest grandson to the dead eldest son, he, the youngest son whose biological mother is unknown, will be in a bit of an embarrassing situation, and the mother will probably be happy because his family inheritance has been shaken, and then support her adoptive son grandson.The mother just didn't treat father's other children well, and didn't hate them much, but she hated him completely.

"Father, do you only have this idea, or have you already made a decision?" Ling Yuxuan said cautiously, "If Father has already made a decision, the child will not object." To be honest, he now has a lot of property, and he still has a lot of property. Less than [-] years old, he is already the commander of the Dragon Scale Guard, and he is completely able to stand on his own.If the Ling family really wanted a situation where the youngest son and grandson competed to inherit the family business, he would split it up and live separately.

"You don't object?" Prime Minister Ling was a little surprised, and then said, "Since you don't object, I'll talk to Yulou." This is a big matter between a man and a family, and there is no need to ask a woman's opinion.

"Father decides." Ling Yuxuan cupped his hands.

Prime Minister Ling nodded slightly, with a satisfied smile on his face.

Ling Yuxuan did not tell the sixth sister Mrs. Liu Hanlin about Xiao Wenqing's miscarriage, nor did she tell Xiao Wencong who lived in Liu Hanlin's mansion. However, on the sixth day of October, Mrs. Liu brought Xiao Wencong to the prime minister's mansion to visit Xiao Wenqing.

Although Xiao Wenqing is still very weak, she can already get out of bed and walk a few steps.She asked the maids to help her tidy up, helped her to sit down on the Arhat bed in the main room, and invited Sixth Sister and her younger brother to come in.

When Mrs. Liu brought Xiao Wencong in, Xiao Wenqing was supported by Crystal and greeted Sixth Sister.

"Wenqing, what's the matter? You look pale and look sick. Sit down quickly." Mrs. Liu was surprised, and immediately urged Xiao Wenqing to sit down.

Xiao Wenqing smiled wryly and said, "Sixth Sister, I feel a little unwell, so I look weak." She also specially ordered Jing Jing to help her apply more red rouge, unexpectedly, Sixth Sister has good eyesight, and she can tell at a glance that her body is very weak.

"Wen Qing, Sixth Sister is not suitable for outsiders." Mrs. Liu shook her head and said, the last time she met Wen Qing in the Cai Mansion, Wen Qing still had plump cheeks, it was only less than half a month, how could she have lost weight? , False footsteps?

"Sister, are you sick?" Xiao Wencong asked worriedly.Half a month ago, my sister was still very healthy. How did my brother-in-law take care of my sister?
Xiao Wenqing stretched out her hand to touch her cheek, and could only say: "Sixth sister, I am young and careless. I had a miscarriage on the 26th of last month." Ten days have passed, and her body is already clean. Now she is weak due to excessive blood loss. Need to recuperate.

"Ah, Xiao Chan, why don't you go back to the house and lie down? You can't be blown by the wind." Madam Liu hurriedly said, "Crystal, Agate, help Madam into the house and lie down immediately."

Jing Jing looked at the former owner, turned to Xiao Wenqing respectfully, and said, "Madam, let the servants help you in and lie down. You have already seen the third uncle, and if you have something to say, you can pass it on to Madam Liu."

Xiao Wencong said eagerly: "Eldest sister, there is a letter from Xiling. In August, Qiu Wei, the second brother failed the ranking. The eldest brother ranked No. 70 and nine in the province's provincial examination list. Now he is a candidate. The eldest brother decided to leave for the capital after the next year to participate in the next spring competition. I plan to stay in the capital for the new year, and I will return home with my elder brother when the results of the exam come out." He came here today to share the good news, and my sister heard it, so she can go into the house to lie down and rest.

"Really? Wen Hua is really promising, so don't be discouraged when Wen Feng is young." Xiao Wenqing said pleasantly.

"Congratulations, madam, my uncle is a high school graduate." Crystal Agate hastily bowed her head to congratulate Xiao Wenqing.With the gradual growth of the uncles of the Xiao family, the wife's position in her husband's family will become more and more stable.

"Miss, this is great." Lue also congratulated Xiao Wenqing for the Eldest Young Master's success.

"Okay, Wen Cong's words have been delivered, Wen Qing, go back to your room and lie down and rest." Madam Liu urged again.A woman's miscarriage hurts her health, so she must pay attention to rest.

"Lu E, stay here and entertain the third son on my behalf." Xiao Wenqing said, "Third brother, my sister is not feeling well, so I won't talk with you. When your brother-in-law comes back, let him entertain you."

"Well, sister." Xiao Wencong nodded and looked at the maids with concern as they helped Xiao Wenqing back to the room.
