Chapter 162: What Don't You Dare?
Zhou Ruhai thinks that there are two reasons why Huan'er can't be accepted as a righteous daughter, first, Huan'er is a little maid, that is, a subordinate in his own family, such an identity is not as good as Chun Nier, if it is known by people outside, the Zhou family and his wife, if they recognize such a goddaughter, they will definitely be laughed at.
The second reason is more sufficient, Huan'er is Lin Ajiao's dowry maid, she is a member of the Lin family, she was recognized as a daughter within a few days of her coming, what will the people of the Lin family think?
And once Huan'er is recognized as a daughter, how should Huan'er get along with Lin Ajiao in the future, should she call her sister-in-law or should she be called Miss?
"I want to recognize who I want to be my daughter, you don't care!" Mrs. Zhou was really angry, in front of the subordinates, she had never resisted her old man like this.
On the one hand, they didn't understand why Mrs. Zhou had to recognize a maid as a daughter, on the other hand, they also felt that this old couple was too ridiculous, and now the life and death of the young master and the young grandmother were uncertain, and they couldn't even find a figure.
Zhou Ruhai was so angry with Mrs. Zhou that he stretched out his hand to Mrs. Zhou tremblingly, and said angrily: "You dare!" ”
Things have come to this point, and Mrs. Zhou doesn't care about her virtuous and virtuous image, she got up and wanted to make a big fight with Zhou Ruhai, so that she could alleviate the pain in her heart, and second, she could breathe a sigh of relief for Huan'er.
But before Mrs. Zhou could speak, a person's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"What's not to dare?"
The people in the study were all stunned, because this voice was too familiar, and the first person to react was Huan'er who was kneeling on the ground, and she heard that the person who spoke was Zhou Zhou Ming.
She didn't have time to explain the situation to everyone, so she stood up and ran outside the study in a few steps, and saw two people coming side by side at the gate.
One of these two people is Zhou Zhou Ming, and the other is Lin Ajiao.
The two of them held hands, talking and laughing as they walked.
Although Zhou Yiming's dress was tattered at this time, his handsome appearance was still shining, and standing with his own young lady, he was simply a pair made in heaven who envied others.
Seeing the two closest people, Huan'er ran to them desperately, got into the arms of the two of them, and cried aggrievedly.
"Young Master, Miss, you are finally back!"
"Silly girl, what are you crying about? Haven't you and I already returned? ”
Zhou Ming patted her head and smiled.
"Dead girl, were you naughty again when I wasn't there? Before I entered the gate just now, I heard that you made the old man angry, if you make the old man angry, I will carefully peel your skin! ”
Lin Gillian hugged Huan'er in her arms, slowly lifted her face, and said with an angry face.
"Miss, I don't." I had suffered a lot of grievances just now, and when she saw her own lady coming back, Huan'er thought that she would administer justice for herself, but she didn't expect that her own young lady didn't say a word of comfort, but instead asked her teacher for her guilt.
In an instant, Huan'er was aggrieved and speechless, and her tears couldn't stop flowing.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Zhou Ming felt uncomfortable for a while, he and Lin Ajiao both have martial arts cultivation, and their senses are much more sensitive than ordinary people, so when they were still on the street just now, the two of them heard the dispute in the study.
At that time, when she heard Zhou Ruhai say that she couldn't recognize Huan'er as her goddaughter, Lin Ajiao's face changed, although she adjusted quickly and immediately returned to normal, but this subtle change still made Zhou Zhou Ming see it in his eyes.
Zhou Ming understood Lin Ajiao's mood, when she went against the wishes of the whole family, she insisted on marrying into the Zhou family, and only brought this little maid Huan'er by her side, it can be said that Huan'er is her only maiden family in this family, it is precisely because of this that Huan'er's status in her heart is incomparable to others.
When Lin Ajiao was away, his father said that her personal maid was not worthy of being her goddaughter, isn't this just looking for trouble and deliberately humiliating others?
If Lin Ajiao is estranged from her father because of this, Zhou Ming's life will not be easy in the future, after all, no matter how bad the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is, it is also a war between women, and if the daughter-in-law and her father-in-law are not in harmony, it will be the battle of the end.
After all, these two people have paid too much to themselves, and Zhou Ming will definitely be unbearable in his heart when he is partial to which side he is.
It was in order to avoid this situation that Zhou Ming shouted "Why don't you dare" on the street, he wanted to use this way to stop his father from continuing to say some hurtful things.
Looking at Lin Ajiao's cold expression, Zhou Zhou Ming was also stunned, but he really couldn't bear to watch Huan'er suffer an injustice, so he could only smile and say, "Lady, why are you so troubled?" Huan'er has always been well-behaved and sensible, don't you know? There must be some misunderstanding in the middle, as long as you figure it out, nothing will be gone! ”
Lin Ajiao stood in place, hugging Huan'er, without saying a word.
Zhou Ming secretly complained in his heart, thinking that it was over, the lady was really angry.
The people in the courtyard saw that Zhou Ming and his wife were back, and everyone gathered around and said hello to the two of them.
At this time, Zhou Ruhai and Mrs. Zhou also came out of the study, and the two of them saw that Zhou Ming and Lin Ajiao were safe and sound, and they were all excited and burst into tears.
"My son, you have finally returned, do you know? I almost died of this old lady just now! With the support of her subordinates, Mrs. Zhou walked to Zhou Ming and Lin Ajiao, took their hands, and planned to take them to the study.
Although Lin Ajiao was angry, after seeing the two elders, she was still polite and thoughtful: "Daddy, it's me and Yiming who are not good, so you two are worried about us." ”
Zhou Ruhai wiped his eyes and asked Zhou Ming with some reproach: "Ming'er, why did you look for so long before you brought your daughter-in-law back?" ”
Zhou Ming smiled: "Hey, don't mention it, my mother and I were originally very close to each other, and we would soon be able to find each other, but something went wrong in the middle, which delayed it." ”
One sentence made everyone laugh.
"Anyway, just come back!" Mrs. Zhou said with emotion, "Quick, a few of you hurry up and take the young master and young grandmother into the study, the two of them must be hungry." ”
Zhou Ruhai patted his head, thinking to himself how I forgot about this stubble, the two of them have been out for so long, they must have been hungry for a long time, but I still looked like a fool, asking this and that.
"Ming'er, your mother is right, you and your daughter-in-law must be hungry, if you have anything to say, wait until you two are full." Zhou Ruhai said while planning to enter the study first.
Just as everyone was about to enter the study to eat and drink, Zhou Zhou Ming suddenly stood in place and said in a firm tone: "Wait a minute, before eating, I have to finish one thing first, otherwise, this meal will not taste good." ”
After hearing these words, everyone was stunned, not knowing what tricks Zhou Ming was going to play.
Only Lin Ajiao seemed to have guessed what Zhou Ming wanted to do, she stepped forward, took Zhou Ming's hand, and said with a smile: "Don't do so much, everyone is in a better mood today, let's eat first, even if there is anything, it's not too late to talk about it when we have a chance in the future." ”
"That's not going to work!" Zhou Zhou Ming replied categorically, "If this matter is about someone else, maybe it can be delayed, but this matter is about my most beloved person, and it must not be delayed." ”
The people present were all confused.
Huan'er stood in the crowd, and didn't understand what Zhou Zhou Ming was doing, she even complained a little bit about Zhou Ming in her heart, feeling that he didn't have eyesight, at this time it was obviously the best time for the family to be happy, but he had to sing the opposite tone and add to everyone's heart.
Zhou Ruhai thought that Zhou Zhou Ming was to thank the subordinates in the family, after all, these subordinates made a lot of efforts to find him last night.
"The whole family is here, Ming'er, if you have anything to say, just say it." Zhou Ruhai stroked his beard and encouraged.
Mrs. Zhou's thoughts are the same as Zhou Ruhai's, and when she thinks that her son has actually learned to be grateful to others, Mrs. Zhou sighs with emotion, and she feels that her son has finally grown up.
"Dad, I want to ask you, why can't Huan'er be your daughter?" Zhou Ming said as he pulled Huan'er out of the crowd.
"Huh?" Zhou Ruhai looked surprised, he didn't expect that Zhou Zhou Ming would ask himself such a sharp question in front of so many people.
"This ...... This is the rule of the ancestors," Zhou Ruhai thought for a long time, and said with insufficient confidence, "Although our Zhou family has declined a lot now, but back then, it was also one of the most famous families in the capital city.
Although our family is not what it used to be, but at least the system still has to be maintained, although Huan'er is the daughter-in-law's personal maid, but she is from a humble background after all, if your mother and I recognize her as a daughter, wouldn't it be shameful? ”
The people present originally thought that Zhou Zhou Ming was going to say something big, but when they heard it for the last time, they found that he was just coming out for his wife's personal maid, and everyone was disappointed at the same time, they also felt that Zhou Zhou Ming was very inappropriate to do this.
After all, if a little maid can transform into the eldest lady of the Zhou family, it will be unreasonable, and it will make them feel unfair.
Lin Ajiao originally guessed that Zhou Zhou Ming would do this, but it turned out to be as she expected, and while she was moved, she was also a little worried, afraid that Zhou Zhou Ming would have an unpleasant quarrel with her father because of this matter.
In fact, Lin Ajiao was not very angry when she heard Zhou Ruhai say that Huan'er was not worthy of being her daughter, after all, she was a very generous woman, she just felt that the only family member she brought to the Zhou family was treated like this by the Zhou family, and she felt very sad.
