Sir, can you marry me?

Chapter 197

"Well, my mother always thinks that the appearance of the fourth brother will cause the eldest brother to lose his desire to live." Mrs. Liu asked with concern, "Did Yuxuan mention when the father will adopt a son for the eldest brother, and whose child will he adopt?" If the father decides to take the fourth brother If his son is adopted by his elder brother first, then the mother should not count Wenqing's childbirth anymore.

"Jingquan. Now we just need to wait for Jingquan to nod." Xiao Wenqing said.The father-in-law has already brought up this matter with Sanbo, but Sanbo only said that Jingquan has grown up, and Jingquan needs to decide this matter himself.If Jingquan is adopted under the uncle's name, he will be in the same line as the eldest son in the future, and the relationship between the third uncle and Jingquan will become uncle and nephew from then on.They have been father and son for 18 years, and now they want to change to uncle and nephew, not to mention that Jingquan can't accept it, and Sanbo can't accept it for a while.

"Jingquan?" Mrs. Liu was stunned. When it comes to adoption, the world generally adopts underage boys, because it can cultivate feelings, and most people only adopt sons other than the eldest son, and their eldest son still has to continue their own life. Incense.

"It's Jingquan." Xiao Wenqing said.When Yuxuan mentioned the issue of adoption with her, he mentioned Zong's succession.In terms of stability within the family, his legitimate son is the most suitable candidate for adoption.However, before he had any legitimate sons, the third uncle's third son, Jing Yuan from a concubine, was also a good candidate for adoption; if the mother-in-law disliked Jing Yuan as a concubine's son, the third uncle's second son, Jing Hai, would also do.The eldest son would never be adopted under normal circumstances.Jingquan's mother was born in the Cui family. If he adopts under the uncle's name, he will become the eldest grandson of the Ling family. According to the ancient Zong's succession sequence, he is better than Yuxuan in inheriting the Ling family.

"Wen Qing, is it father's name to adopt Jingquan to eldest brother?" Mrs. Liu asked suspiciously.She still remembered that her eldest brother's health was always up and down, so her father still sought out Hongru to teach her third brother, and vaguely regarded him as a substitute for her eldest brother; her fourth brother, Yuxuan, was brought back from outside by her father and raised under the name of her aunt, and her eldest brother died of illness , the father began to train the nominal youngest son with all his heart, but even though the father confirmed the heir again, he still attached great importance and strictness to the third brother, and let the third brother pass the scientific examination and enter the official career as an official.

Compared with Xiao Wenqing, Mrs. Liu, who was born into a family and has been exposed to these things since childhood, thinks more.Her third elder brother, Ling Yulou, has grown from a ninth-rank official to the current Yousi Chancellor of Dali Temple step by step. Apart from his own hard work, it is also because his father keeps giving him opportunities.If the father hadn't suddenly had an extra son, her third brother Ling Yulou would be the one who inherited the Ling family!Now that the father wants to get the eldest son of her third brother under the name of her late eldest brother, it's not true that he only wants that child to pass on the incense to her eldest brother, right?By the way, Jingquan is still her father's eldest grandson, and his teachers are also the teachers of her fourth brother Yuxuan.

Seeing the confusion on Mrs. Liu's face, Xiao Wenqing nodded slightly and said, "Father brought it up." Isn't this a simple issue of adoption?Is it true that as Yuxuan was worried, his father had new considerations about the choice of heir?Yuxuan has always been raised as an heir. If Yuxuan was abandoned by his father in the end, even though Yuxuan said he didn't care, he would be hurt if he could stand on his own.

"Well, father has his own ideas." Mrs. Liu comforted Xiao Wenqing with a smile, "He has been in the ups and downs of his career for four or fifty years, and he is far more considerate than us women." This is her natal family. She had room to speak, she could only hope that her natal family would not decline due to internal conflicts.

Xiao Wenqing said very calmly: "We women can't take care of men's affairs. I only support him behind Yuxuan's back, so that he will never have to worry about family affairs." Yuxuan has helped her establish a very independent Fushouyuan, If she couldn't keep his second child, she would really have no face to face him.

The two talked for a long time. Mrs. Liu saw that Xiao Wenqing was tired, and quickly advised Xiao Wenqing to lie down and rest.

"When I go back to my natal family, I have to pay my aunt's peace anyway." Madam Liu said.She must go to see her biological mother, but the aunt is inferior, so she must go to her aunt first.

"Sixth sister, go, I'm not feeling well, and Yuxuan won't come back for lunch, so I won't entertain you. In a few days, I'll invite you and Ziling Ziyuan to enjoy the chrysanthemums." Xiao Wenqing said apologetically.

"You and I are not outsiders. How can there be so much courtesy? You should rest well and try to give birth to a fat boy for my fourth brother as soon as possible." Mrs. Liu said, stood up, nodded and saluted, and then walked out of the dormitory.

Crystal and Agate followed and sent Mrs. Liu out of the dormitory.

"Crystal." Xiao Wenqing said loudly.

Jing Jing quickly returned to Xiao Wenqing's side and asked, "What's your order, madam?"

"Crystal, Mrs. Liu is going to visit the old lady and Aunt Du, and Aunt Du will definitely keep her dinner. My younger brother will feel bored if he stays in the Fushouyuan alone. You go and call Fu'an Funing, and let them accompany third uncle in the prime minister's mansion." Take a walk around the garden." Xiao Wenqing urged, "You tell the kitchen to cook a few more dishes for the third uncle during lunch." She has no way to accompany her brother for lunch. 'Aunt Du: Mrs. Liu's biological mother'

"Yes, ma'am." After hearing this, Crystal turned and walked out of the dormitory to make arrangements.

"Ma'am, rest well. Fu'an Funing will take good care of the third uncle." Ma Nao comforted, removed the thick cushion that Xiao Wen was leaning on, helped her to lie down carefully, covered the brocade quilt, and put down the red silk bed Curtains, every layer of bed curtains on the four-step bed when going out.
