Chapter 65: The Succession
"I'll call you mother. Young grandma, can I call you mother? The man cub raised his head timidly, staring at Shen Yu with two eyes like black grapes, and Shen Yu's heart couldn't help but soften.
"If you don't want to, I won't force you, good boy, get up first." In the past few days, Shen Yu has only paid for the children's things and toys, but she has not come in person. She wasn't sure if Mancub's move was really from the heart.
"I do!" Man Cub suddenly nodded very firmly, hugged Shen Yu's leg and said, "Grandma said, my mother is the one who is good to you." Although I had a fever that day, I knew what my young grandmother had done, and I knew what others said. The neighbor's little bean died of smallpox, and I thought I would die too, but I lived. My life was born by my mother, and you saved it, and you are no different from my mother. ”
Although the child's words were immature, their logic was clear, so that Shen Yu couldn't even refute it.
Forget it, it's all going to be inherited anyway, and it doesn't seem to make a difference if it's one day earlier or one day later.
Shen Yu can only comfort herself like this......
"You, why are you thinking so much?" Shen Yu nodded the cub's nose and picked him up from the ground, "I saved you, not because I want to be your mother, but because I think that no matter whether you are my son or not, we always have a little fate, and I don't want to watch you die like this." Forget it, it's too big, you better eat, drink and have fun. ”
Shen Yu felt that she should not let her child know such a heavy topic, but she forgot that this child was a person who had experienced life and death. Grandma Man cub watched Shen Yu and Man Cub's every move from the side, and she was very comforted and happy.
When the Sheng family found their home, she was unwilling, but after the rain and the cold, she also knew that she couldn't really wait for the child to grow up, so she finally had no choice but to compromise.
Later, when she arrived at the Sheng family, she also quietly observed the demeanor of the three masters of the Sheng family, although the eldest lady was not very good, but the old lady and the young grandmother looked like reasonable people, so she was a little relieved.
Later, the full cub suddenly said that she didn't want to, she was really distressed, distressed for the child, and distressed for her own fate.
Now it's okay, the child is willing, and the Sheng family is also willing, even if it's not everyone happy, but it's not much worse.
Shen Yu took the child to play for a while, and after buying a lot of things in the provincial capital, she took him and her grandmother back to Qingshui Town. The old lady of the Sheng family was relieved when she knew that the smallpox of the full cub was healed, and while eating the pastries that Shen Yu bought, she listened to the child's affairs and only felt that the child was a little too sensible.
"Poor families naturally have to be sensible early to survive." Mother Tao smiled and sent tea for Mrs. Sheng to make pastries, "Old lady eat less, these things of foreigners are sweet and inverted." ”
"I love to eat!" Old Mrs. Sheng snorted twice, knocked Shen Yu, thought about it again and said, "The step-gift doesn't need to be too big, just invite some relatives of the family to come." In this way, you don't have to prepare so many things, just put it for the day after tomorrow. ”
It's only a day, but it's not too rushed. Early the next morning, after Xie Changli sent out the invitation, the Sheng family's kitchen began to buy, and the next morning, he began to carry out the succession ceremony in full swing.
Adoptiveness is not uncommon in history, so there are precedents to refer to. When the day came, the Sheng family invited the elders in the ancestral hall to come over, and drafted the successor certificate, opened the family tree, first let the grandmother of the cub press the handprint on the successor certificate, and then the elders of the ancestral hall wrote the name of the cub into the family tree, and then burned a yellow table paper in the land grandfather, and finally let the child kowtow to the elders to change their mouth, and this succession ceremony was completed.
However, since he has become someone else's child, he naturally has to change his name.
Shen Yu thought about it for two days and came up with a name - Sheng Xu.
After showing this name to the old lady and the eldest lady, they all thought that the name was good, plus Sheng Xu's generation from the Jin generation, so the full cub had an official name, Sheng Jinxu.
However, in private, Shen Yu still thinks that the name Mancub is good, daily, and atmospheric.
Sheng Jinxu bowed to the old lady of the Sheng family and the eldest lady first, and when it came to Shen Yu, his little mouth pursed slightly, as if he was laughing. Shen Yu also gave him a warm smile back, and after he finished worshipping, he pulled him up, and then recognized the elders of the Sheng family one by one.
When it comes time to recognize the elders, this change of words is not in vain. In addition to giving Sheng Jinxu a big red envelope, Mrs. Sheng also gave a set of brand-new Trojan rocking chairs and other children's favorite gadgets. The eldest lady gave a set of four treasures of the study, which looked like something bought casually from the street.
"It's a happy event imported by Tian Ding, even if the sister-in-law is unhappy, you don't have to put on a face of cutting off your grandchildren." The eldest lady has been pulling her face all day long, and her attitude towards Sheng Jinxu is also extremely perfunctory, everyone present can see it clearly, but no one cares about her.
Everyone knows what is going on, but no one says anything about it.
Song Baoqin always felt that she was smarter, so she had to make things clear.
"The second aunt hasn't been a grandmother yet, and I don't know how hard it is to be a grandmother. When the second aunt becomes a grandmother, I'm afraid you won't be able to laugh. "Shen Yu shouldn't say anything to the eldest lady in front of everyone, but she won't let the second lady go at will.
Because of Sheng Yanwei, she almost died in Huangfeng Village. But when she came back to the present, the second room didn't even apologize, she didn't go to the second room to settle the account, she was already in a good temper, but she was in a good temper and treated her as a soft persimmon?
Dream!
Shen Yu's unceremoniousness made Song Baoqin's face suddenly embarrassed, and she glanced at Xu Xinyue's belly, but she still opened her mouth, "Although the second room is not as rich as the big house, can you still raise a child?" ”
"Anyway, if the second room can't be supported, it will naturally ask the big house for help." Shen Yu pointed to Mai Mang, and did not let go of Song Baoqin at all. People who knew that Shen Yu was talking about Sheng Yanwei before couldn't help but laugh sullenly, and Song Baoqin, who was holding back, suddenly couldn't hold back her face.
Knowing that she couldn't get any benefits from Shen Yu, Song Baoqin didn't continue to speak, and she made a fuss.
Seeing that Song Baoqin no longer spoke, Shen Yu took Sheng Jinxu to salute Sheng Yanqing.
"This is your second uncle, you've seen it."
"Second Uncle Wanfu." Sheng Jinxu saluted obediently, and his little black eyes winked at Sheng Yanqing, which finally amused Sheng Yanqing.
"Good boy, you must be filial to your elders in the future." Sheng Yanqing reached out and touched Sheng Jinxu's little head, and then took out a jade pendant from his sleeve.
