Chapter XVII: Insist on Adoption
The voice came from the door next to him, and then you saw a woman in her twenties, wearing expensive pajamas, with a bloodless face, coming out, and following her was the little wolf.
Said to be a little wolf, in fact, it is not small, a season passes, its body becomes stronger, although the left front paw is missing, but it does not affect the speed.
Soon, it bit the woman's pajamas, bared its teeth, and the milk was fierce.
Little wolf, shut up!
Only then did the little wolf see Qiu Yu, the boy who almost touched the hair on his head.
It let go, and the woman ran back to the room in a daze and slammed the door shut.
Little wolf, why did you run to someone's room? Qiu Yu touched the little wolf's head, you see that you scared that sister, don't you hear it next time?
The little wolf whined and avoided his hand, but he did not relent: You have grown up, your hair has become coarse, and if you want me to touch me, you are afraid of pricking your hand.
The little wolf seemed to think for a while, and could only accept his fate.
Holding the little wolf and getting close for a while, he stood up, and the man walked out, took the woman's pajamas, pointed to the silk on the clothes and said to Qiu Yu: You see that your wolf has torn my lady's clothes, this dress is two taels of silver, I see that you are young, it is an animal, just pay one tael.
Who do you say are animals?
It is not what an animal is.
It's a wolf.
Isn't the wolf just ......
Please apologize to my wolf immediately.
My lady almost let him bite to death, and apologizing is also its apology.
My wolf doesn't bite anyone, it's led to the room by you with food. Qiu Yu plucked the shredded meat from the little wolf's mouth: chicken breast.
It eats meat, what does it have to do with me.
I can't even afford to eat meat, where does it come from?
Little Wolf: Woohoo!
Qiu Yu continued: You are the one who attracted it.
It eats raw meat, which is cooked meat. How did you kid wronged a good person. I brought a wolf over and let it bite me, and I took a lot of trouble to get rid of the ...... Hey, that's not right for you. Anyway, I'm not going to make trouble for myself, and I don't know how it got in.
As soon as he finished speaking, the woman wearing only a red belly pocket broke down the door and fell to the ground with the door.
What you see is that the monster pushed her like this.
The youkai pushed it and jumped out of the window.
The woman fell not lightly, and the man was very distressed, so he helped the woman back to the room, came out and said to Qiu Yu: Don't go yet! Call your shopkeepers! Find Lang Zhong to show my woman the injury!
Why did our shopkeeper show her injuries?
If it weren't for your wolf scaring her, she wouldn't have gone crazy and banged on the door. Hurry up.
The woman's fall was not small, attracting all the guests, and Li Cheng, Li Cheng ran up and asked: Xiaoyu, what's going on?
You boys......
Guest, please wait a while before speaking.
Hey, what's going on with your inn, the wolf enters the house, people still don't listen to people, who are you, call your shopkeeper, it's not over today!
Li Cheng knew that it was not easy for guests to come over, and he couldn't be scared away anymore, so he went to my house to look for me.
Walking from home to the inn to get a cup of tea, Li Cheng briefly told me on the way, in fact, he can solve this matter.
I looked very unenergetic without makeup, and as soon as I entered the door, a guy came to greet me: Guest officer, are you staying or eating supper.
I:......
Li Cheng: I don't have long eyes, this is our shopkeeper.
You see that he doesn't dare to believe the eyes: the shopkeeper, you stay or eat supper?
Li Cheng: Go, how much do you drink!
I didn't drink. I......
Okay, go aside. Li Cheng said to me, shopkeeper, let's go upstairs.
You see Qiu Yu looking at me all the time, hateful eyes, and he hates me as if he saw me kill his father.
I went upstairs to ask Qiuyu, and men were not allowed to interject.
Look at his image, half-drunk and unreasonable, let him say, Qiuyu will have to suffer, of course I won't let my benefactor's children suffer.
After listening to Qiuyu, I asked the male guest: Lang Zhong has seen it, is it seriously injured?
Heavy, dying, you have to compensate, a thousand taels, give a thousand taels, nothing happens, don't give it, see you in the government!
So heavy, I'll see.
He stood in the doorway: No.
Then I'll see you at the government. I said, I will ask Hou Ye to handle the case impartially, I was released from prison because he handled the case impartially, you can rest assured to tell him the situation.
You are......
Li Cheng: Our shopkeeper is the brother-in-law of the marquis!
You hear the man weighing the pros and cons in his heart, and after weighing it, he says: Let's see if my woman can get better tomorrow, let's do this today. With that, secure the door and close it.
I asked the guests to go back to the guest rooms, and Li Cheng was busy boiling water for the guests.
In the corridor, I, Qiuyu, and the little wolf were silently facing each other.
Whew!
The little wolf actually knew me and called at me politely, its left front paw had been ground into a thick cocoon, and it could move freely without fear of wear and tear, but I still felt distressed.
Xiaoyu, the little wolf has always been by your side?
He ignored me and was about to leave, and I said, "I approve of your approach, and I didn't quarrel with the guests, wait for me to come and solve it."
He looked at me with a mocking expression and tone: You solve? It's not because you're the brother-in-law of the marquis. Also, is it in your eyes, I just like to cause trouble, fight, cause trouble, no mother, no father, no upbringing?
That was not what I meant.
That's not what I mean, I'm praising him for doing the right thing.
No matter what I do, you're not in a position to speak of me.
How am I not qualified! I think he is disrespectful to me when he talks like this, he is the son of my savior, can I sit idly by, I prefer to care.
What are you me, sick!
I'm your mother!
I may have been impulsive, or I may have thought about it, anyway, when I say it, I will continue to talk.
Qiu Yue begged me to adopt you, but I didn't agree, he was here, I adopted you in a bad name, and my words were not good. Now, he is gone, you have no other relatives, and it is impossible for your Aunt Zhenzhen to adopt you......
I agree.
You weren't surprised, right?
He regarded me as an enemy of my father's murderer.
I actually agreed!
Is there something wrong with me and your ears?
Of course not.
Autumn language is clear.
He agreed.
This kid, not following the routine, I was ready to be rejected, he actually ...... I didn't know how to answer for a while, but you can see how complicated my heart is when you look at my face.
Mother.
Yes!
If you adopt me, of course I have to call you mother, you and my father and grandparents have discussed it, so come and pick me up.
You say, "What does he mean by that?"
I regret it, I shouldn't have been impulsive just now, but I said it all, can I take it back?
No.
I could only say yes with my head, and the next day I said to my husband and my mother-in-law at the dinner table.
After eating, I should have been busy, but as soon as I said it, it was as if they were all nailed to their chairs.
Lu Cheng's family lives in the Hou Mansion, and they occasionally come back to eat together, but today is not occasional, just us.
Xian Yan sat across from me, looking very haggard, she always couldn't answer when we talked just now, and she needed to be reminded.
But I said that I wanted to adopt Qiuyu, and although she didn't move, she was the first to answer.
She said, "I think it's okay."
You think she's going to say something, right?
I thought too.
But only you and I thought.
That's what she said.
Then you just saw my mother-in-law glaring at her, Lu Tu frowned: My mother hasn't spoken yet, what are you picking up? Talkative.
Vivid suddenly remembered what to say, and listed various reasons why I had to adopt Qiuyu.
Of course, a thousand words are not as good as adopting a child to conceive.
However, my physical condition is clear to everyone in my mother-in-law's family. Even if I adopt ten children, I can't conceive.
If it were normal, my mother-in-law wouldn't let Xian Yan finish speaking, you also saw her impatient when Xian Yan said it just now, but she couldn't bear it and had to let Xian Yan finish speaking, the whole family had to let Xian Yan finish, I don't say it, you understand, I'll just say my mother-in-law's reaction.
Wen Guan, you kneel down for me!
Mother, Xiaoguan's injury is not healed yet, and he can't kneel.
I said, "It's okay, you can't die if you kneel."
I knelt down, and the servants all looked at me strangely.
It's not the first time I've been on my knees in the ten years since I've been married, but they're still surprised.
Lu Shang also wanted to kneel, how could I agree, so I pressed his knee: Do you agree?
Qiuyu is a child with shortcomings, but it doesn't prevent me from liking him, and I am willing to discipline him as a father.
You don't have to look at how ugly my mother-in-law's face is, just look at my face, the contrast is very stark.
With Lu Shang's consent, I was relieved, I looked at my mother-in-law: Mother, I'm not impulsive, I thought it through in prison, Qiuyu This kid has extreme thoughts, stubborn personality, and stubbornness, if there is no adult to do the right guidance, I am worried that he will not go on the right path. Qiu Yue saved my life, his son, I have to take care of it, Qiu Yu also agreed to me to adopt him, he didn't come back with me, but, please ask me to discuss with you, and my father, he is very sensible.
My mother-in-law was not as patient as listening to Xianyan's words, she raised her hand several times, stood up, and waited until I finished telling the maid to clean up the table, and then said to me: If you don't let you do anything, you will do what you want, so against you marrying Lu Shang, if you marry, then against you opening an inn, you will open it. You and Lu Shang have a good relationship, and your father and I see that Lu Shang is happy, so we won't beat the mandarin ducks and be evildoers. The inn uses your own silver, you are a superb cook, and no one in the inn makes trouble, so open it, and we don't care. You like to toss, big and small, crazy, we all accommodate you, we never say anything about you can't have children, a family, make unpleasant jokes for outsiders, and make money with anger. It's good for us to live like this, Ansheng. But why do you do such a peaceful life? Who is that child, he thinks you are his father-killer, and you bring him in, this is to lure the wolf into the house! What's going on in your head? Have you ever had a long brain!
Mother, when you speak, just say, why scold Xiaoguan, Xiaoguan didn't marry to be scolded.
You still have the face to say, I haven't said you yet, you also agreed to adopt, and you don't have a brain!
It's not the first time my mother-in-law has scolded me, and this time she scolded the hardest.
I wonder if I'm doing it wrong.
Qiu Yu agreed too happily, can he have no purpose? I don't believe it.
However, no matter what, I will not take back this decision if I make it.
The Lu family can't tolerate him, and I want him to be my son.
