Chapter 40, Adoptive
Xie Shi heard the meaning of Duke's words, and suddenly had confidence in his heart, no matter what he said, Du Shi, the head of the Guogong Mansion, was on his side, so he had enough confidence.
The daughters-in-law of the three relatives of the Duchess of the Duke, the eldest young lady Song, the fourth young lady of Beiping County, and the sixth young lady Ye, the three of them looked at each other, and then quickly understood the meaning of their mother-in-law's words, and smiled in their hearts.
Before, the father-in-law meant to carry the wife of the fifth room, combined with the fact that the father-in-law was in the house of the sixth aunt last night, compared to the fact that the person was the maiden niece of the sixth aunt, and now the mother-in-law means that she does not approve of letting the maiden niece of the sixth aunt become the equal wife of the fifth room.
It's just that what does the mother-in-law mean by this, the five-room wife Xie does not have a sister-in-law under her knees, and it is normal to raise the biological mother of the eldest son as a flat wife, what does the mother-in-law mean·······
The eldest young lady and the two sibling brothers and daughters-in-law below glanced at each other, and then understood what each other was thinking, they felt that it was okay to do so, now the nine rooms of the Guogong Mansion are people, but there is no one who has a flat wife in that room, if there is a flat wife in the fifth room, it is difficult to ensure that the concubines in the other rooms will not be tempted and want to become flat wives.
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, daughter-in-law failed to give birth to a son-in-law for the fifth young master, it is the daughter-in-law's fault, today I take this opportunity, the daughter-in-law wants to ask the father-in-law and mother-in-law to make the decision, and the concubine of the fifth room, Su Jingye, will be recorded in the name of the daughter-in-law, and become the sister-in-law of the fifth room, and the daughter-in-law must treat it as her own·······" Xie Shi opened his mouth in a puff.
The words that Xie said shocked Grandpa Su Yao, and Duchess Du was pleasantly surprised, as long as it was not the sixth aunt's maiden niece who became a flat wife, everything else was easy to say, and the Wufang Xie family was able to record the concubine in his name and treat him as a concubine, and the Du family was very willing.
Grandpa Su Yao was embarrassed and shocked, originally he wanted to follow yesterday's proposal of the sixth aunt and let Aunt Wu of the fifth room become the equal wife of the fifth room, so that Su Jingchang, the eldest son of the fifth room, naturally became the eldest son of the fifth room, but swallowed the daughter-in-law and said that another concubine named Su Jingye would be the concubine under his name, since he had a son-in-law, he also figured out what it meant to be a flat wife.
Aunt Wu's mother and son listened to Xie's words, they couldn't believe it, they forgot their humility, at this time, they raised their heads one by one, and looked straight at Xie, their eyes were full of disbelief, Su Jingye was also very shocked, how could they mention themselves in a good manner, they were not prepared at all!
Su Jingye was in the clouds, he lost his mother since he was a child, he was relatively precocious, and naturally knew that his mother was willing to put himself in his name, from now on, he was the son-in-law of Wufang, and when he grew up in the future, he would be qualified to inherit the family property of Wufang, in addition, in the future, he would be easier than as a concubine, and he would naturally be happy.
"Master, the concubine thinks that Xie's plan is very good, and the concubine is recorded in the name of the mother-in-law, which is the son-in-law, which is better than helping the flat wife and letting the son of the flat wife become the son-in-law, although the son born to the flat wife is also the son-in-law, but after all, the name is not rightly·······" Duchess Du looked at Xie with appreciation, she was worthy of being the daughter of the Xie family, and the granddaughter of a century-old scholarly family.
Du Shi appreciates Xie very much, and the other eight people of the Su family have their own opinions on Xie's words, and some of them are really happy for Xie's family, and some of them have always been good friends with Aunt Wu, but they are upset for Aunt Wu, according to their meaning, Aunt Wu is the daughter of the official family, and the Xie family is the daughter of the merchant, the merchant girl is the wife, and the official woman is the concubine, which is only five rooms!
Grandpa Su Yao couldn't find any excuse to refute Du's words, yes, although the son born to his wife is also a son-in-law, it can be compared with the son of the wife.
Although Su Jingye is a concubine who became a concubine under the name of his wife, he is not as good as a concubine who is not a serious son-in-law, but it is better than when he was born, his biological mother was just an aunt, and later his biological mother became a sister-in-law of a flat wife, and the son-in-law of the main wife recorded in his name is much better than a son-in-law whose biological mother was not a flat wife at the beginning·······
Duchess Du said this, and Grandpa Su Yao did not refute it, at this point, Su Jingye, the concubine, was registered under the name of the Xie family, and it was a sure thing to become the concubine of the fifth room, Aunt Wu's mother and son were not light, but as concubines, they didn't even have the right to speak, so they could only knock out their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs.
Su Jingye was called out by the Xie family, Su Jingye's small body stood straight, and he looked a little old, Grandpa Su Yao asked him a few words, he could answer, Grandpa Su Yao was also very satisfied with this!
Su Jingye's name in the name of the Xie family was successfully facilitated by the hands of Aunt Wu Muzi, and the grandfather of the country Su Yao gave an order to open the ancestral hall in three days, and recorded Su Jingye's name under the Xie family's knees, and Su Jingye became the fifth concubine of the family, which is over, just waiting to open the ancestral hall!
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, daughter-in-law still have one more thing, I want to ask the second elder to fulfill it!" Since the Xie family agreed to Aunt Zhong, now that Su Jingye's matter has been completed, then strike while the iron is hot, and this Aunt Zhong and Su Jinxiang's matter will be done together!
Although she is the wife of the fifth room, Su Jinxiang is the concubine of the fifth room, this Su Jinxiang passed to Aunt Zhong's knees, so she naturally needs to report to the head of the house, Du Shi, one is to be able to please her mother-in-law Du Shi, and the other is to inform the people of the Guogong Mansion about this matter, so as not to make a fuss about it in the future.
Xie Shi spoke again at this time, facing Grandpa Su Yao and Duchess Du Chen's sincere opening, his tone was very respectful, although Grandpa Su Yao was a little embarrassed about the previous matter, he felt that Xie Shi was a little bit inched at this time, but he didn't say anything, but signaled Du Shi to deal with the rest of the things.
"There is something Xie has to say, but it doesn't matter, as long as it's not too much, we are naturally willing to fulfill it as parents······· Duchess Du Shi spoke slowly, and Du Shi's words were very meaningful.
On the one hand, it was for the other people present, and on the other hand, it was telling the Xie family that if this was a trivial matter that did not implicate the reputation of the Guogong Mansion, then if it was a major matter that implicated the reputation of the Guogong Mansion, don't say it.
Su Jinyan has been paying attention to it on the side, and at this time he can't help but sigh, this is the real master, worthy of being an old man who has survived in the house for decades, this speech is not leaky, it must not offend anyone, and it will not make people find the handle, this trip, I have also learned a lot, if I have half the means in the future······
