Do you know: I am Yuan Wenshao

Chapter 84 You Yang
Aunt Wei was silent for a while and said: "I know that it will be good for them to stay in the Sheng family, but the two of them lost their biological mothers, and their father disliked Chang Lin because of the rumors. Rather than staying here, they might as well go back with me. At least you don't have to be angry."

She naturally knew that staying in the Sheng family was better than following her. No matter what, the Sheng family was an official family, with a scholarly family, no matter in terms of material or education, it was definitely better than following her.

But Minglan and Changlin have lost their biological mother, and their father doesn't want to see them. In such an environment, it's unclear whether they can grow up.

Yuan Wenshao was a little silent when he heard this. Minglan was fine, the old lady could just take care of her.

Chang Lin is different. He is a man. He wants to share some of the family property when he grows up. With Sheng Hong's current attitude, it is hard to say whether it is good or bad to stay in the Sheng family.

But with Sheng Hong's face-saving personality, he definitely didn't want to let his blood flow out, and things seemed to be in an endless loop again.

Yuan Wenshao pondered for a while, and said, "Aunt Wei, don't worry, after all, it's no good for anyone if things get serious. How about this, I'll tell my father-in-law and the others what you think, and I'll definitely come up with a solution that everyone can accept. ,how?"

Aunt Wei said: "My uncle is very fair. Minglan said that the eldest girl is very good to her. I am willing to believe you, but I can only wait three more days. If you can't satisfy me, I will definitely take them away." . If you don’t agree, I will go to Beijing to complain and seek justice for my sister.”

"Don't worry, Aunt Wei, she will definitely think of a way to get the best of both worlds," Yuan Wenshao said.

After talking to Aunt Wei, Yuan Wenshao told Sheng Hong what happened.

Sheng Hong's face turned ugly after hearing this, but for a moment he had nothing to do.

"Father-in-law, why don't you let the old lady take notice." Yuan Wenshao said.

In fact, he has a way, but this way has to be agreed by the old lady.

Sheng Hong hesitated when he heard this. He knew that the old lady should be able to handle the matter, but he was reluctant to let the old lady intervene.

However, he couldn't do anything for a while, and in the end he decided to let the old lady go out.

"Xian son-in-law, I've made you laugh." Sheng Hong said.

"Whatever my father-in-law said, it was all about family. If my father-in-law had no other instructions, my son-in-law would have resigned," Yuan Wenshao said.

Sheng Hong nodded and said: "Go, the scenery in Yangzhou is pretty good, let Changbai lead you around."

Sheng Hong sent Yuan Wenshao away, thought it over carefully, and then went to Shou'an Hall.

Yuan Wenshao didn't know the details of what happened. He only knew that Sheng Hong was scolded by the old lady and left.

Of course, these are what he heard from Hua Lan.

"Actually, I have an idea." Yuan Wenshao said.

"What way?" Hualan asked in surprise.

Yuan Wenshao supported Hualan, walked in the garden, and said, "Aunt Wei is most angry with my father-in-law's attitude towards Changlin. Father-in-law has been influenced by rumors to some extent. Once you believe in ghosts and gods, it's not just a few words. able to change."

"My mother worships Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, and my father often says that my son is silent, has strange powers and confuses the gods. Why do I believe this now?" Hua Lan frowned.

It's not that your father doesn't believe it, but he's embarrassed to show it.

When Sheng Changbai took part in the imperial examination, Sheng Hong once laughed at Mrs. Wang, but he turned out to be more pious than Mrs. Wang.

Naturally, Yuan Wenshao couldn't say this out loud, so he could only say: "Now is not the time to dwell on these things. The time is to satisfy Aunt Wei and stop making trouble. My father-in-law is about to be promoted. If the trouble continues, it will have a big impact on my father-in-law."

"Officer, you said you have a solution, what kind of solution?" Hua Lan asked.

Yuan Wenshao pondered for a while, and said, "I remember you said that the old lady has a son, right?"

"Well, my grandmother had a child, but unfortunately he died before he was one year old, and he couldn't even enter the ancestral hall." Hua Lan said.

"My solution is to adopt Changlin to the old lady's child who died young." Yuan Wenshao said.

"How is this possible?" Hua Lan exclaimed.

"Think about it, the reason why Aunt Wei took away Minglan and Chang Lin was because she was worried that they would have a hard time in the Sheng family. Aunt Wei no longer trusts her father-in-law, so even if the father-in-law pretends to be pretentious and wants to deceive Aunt Wei, It’s very difficult. But it’s different if the child is adopted into the name of the old lady’s child who died in infancy. In principle, the father-in-law will be Chang Lin’s uncle from now on, and having his grandmother as his backer can also make Aunt Wei feel at ease,” Yuan Wenshao said.

"But...but..."

Hua Lan opened his mouth several times, but couldn't find an excuse to deny it.

"Are you worried that once you adopt the old lady's child who died young, it will be a direct birth, and the identity of the father-in-law will be a little embarrassing, right?" Yuan Wenshao said with a smile.

Sheng Hong was originally a concubine, but because the old lady had no legitimate son, he could inherit the family business.

Sheng Hong's identity would be embarrassing if he adopted a child in the name of the old lady's child who died in infancy.

After Sheng Hong dies, will the Erfang lineage be inherited by Chang Bai or Chang Lin?

"In fact, these are easy to solve. You just need to write clearly when entering the genealogy that you only inherit the incense and not the family property." Yuan Wenshao said.

Hua Lan's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and asked, "What about Ming Lan?"

"Minglan is easy to handle. Didn't you say before that your father-in-law felt that the grandmother's place was deserted and wanted to send a child there to be raised by her? The mother-in-law was unwilling to send Ru Lan, but Miss Lin wanted to send Mo Lan, but The old lady doesn't want it, so she might as well not want any of them. Isn't Minglan a good candidate? In addition, if Chang Lin is adopted, he will definitely be raised by the old lady, and the two siblings can also have a companion." Yuan Wenshao said .

The more Hua Lan thought about it, the more she felt that Yuan Wenshao's method was good, and said, "I'll go and talk to my grandmother."

Yuan Wenshao quickly grabbed her and said, "I'm going to be a mother, so why are you so hot and fussy? It's not appropriate for grandma to bring this up. It's better for father-in-law to bring it up first."

It's impossible for the old lady not to have thought about adopting a child for her son who died young, but she didn't do it because of Sheng Hong's attitude.

If the old lady were to mention it first, Sheng Hong would inevitably think too much.

It would be most appropriate for Sheng Hong to offer it.

Hua Lan thought about it carefully, and understood what Yuan Wenshao meant, and said, "I understand. I'll go and tell my father now."

"Don't worry, let father-in-law have a headache first, and then talk to him tomorrow, when the time is running out, he has no time to hesitate." Yuan Wenshao said.

After thinking about it, Hua Lan felt that what Yuan Wenshao said made sense, so she took a walk with Yuan Wenshao at ease.

Early the next morning, the two went to Shou'an Hall to pay their respects to the old lady. When they went to pay their respects to Sheng Hong and Mrs. Wang, Hualan told Sheng Hong what Yuan Wenshao said.

Of course, she didn't say it was Yuan Wenshao's idea, she just said it was her own idea.

Sheng Hong was a little hesitant when he heard the words. Although Hua Lan said that he could write it down when entering the genealogy, but in this case, how dare he speak up.

Seeing his father's hesitation, Hua Lan seemed to have guessed his thoughts, and persuaded him, "Father, only in this way will Aunt Wei not continue to make trouble, and grandmother must be grateful for my father's filial piety, and offered not to inherit the family property."

Sheng Hong actually didn't have that much trust in the old lady, but now he had no better way and could only agree.

The group came to Shouan Hall and after saluting and greetings, Sheng Hong proposed to adopt Chang Lin under the name of his brother who died young.After the old lady heard this, a hint of joy appeared on Gujing Mubo's face.

But she quickly calmed down, pondered for a while and said: "Your brother died early and couldn't enter the ancestral hall, and there is no incense. Since you have the heart, the old lady will thank you for your brother who died young. Chang Lin It can be adopted under his name, but it must be noted that he does not inherit the family business."

"What are you saying, mother? Changlin is of the son's blood. Even if he is adopted to his brother, he cannot deny any family property. When he grows up, the son will make arrangements for himself." Sheng Hong said.

Mrs. Sheng knew Sheng Hong very well and did not take him seriously at all. She said calmly: "If you don't agree, then there is no need to adopt him."

"This..." Sheng Hong hesitated for a moment and said, "Since mother insists, then follow mother."

The old lady nodded, looked at Yuan Wenshao and said, "I have to trouble you to be a lobbyist for this matter."

"Whatever grandma said, grandson-in-law will go and explain this to Aunt Wei right now." Yuan Wenshao said.

……

When Aunt Wei heard that Changlin was going to be adopted by the old lady's child who died young, she didn't object, but she was a little dissatisfied with not being able to inherit the family property.

"Aunt Wei, even though Changlin could not inherit the family business, my grandmother had a good dowry back then. Although there is not much left, it is enough for Changlin to settle down and start a business in the future. If Changlin is successful, he can even ask for a royal order for Wei Xiaoniang in the future. " Yuan Wenshao said.

Aunt Wei thought about it carefully, and finally agreed.

Although Sheng Changlin had to go back to his hometown and record it in the genealogy under the witness of the clan elders to count, but the old lady loved him very much.

Originally, Changlin was served by a nanny and a maid, but the old lady bought two more.

Even Minglan bought two more besides Xiaotao and Danju.

Aunt Wei stayed at Sheng's house for a few days, seeing that Minglan's complexion improved a lot and Changlin was well taken care of, she said goodbye and left.

After Aunt Wei left, the turmoil after Wei Xiaoniang's death had all subsided.

Sheng Hong was busy with handovers every day, while Mrs. Wang dealt with Yangzhou's property and the servants of the mansion.

The people in the house know a lot of secrets. Once they arrive in Bianjing, if they tell them, they will be in trouble.

Mrs. Wang said to the outside world that she was showing sympathy for the servants and dismissed them, but in fact she was looking for someone to deal with and sold many servants away.

Among them, the servants of Lin Qige were sold the most. Except for two of Lin Xiaoniang's personal servants, all the others were sold.

For this reason, Lin Xiaoniang went to Sheng Hong and cried several times. Fortunately, Sheng Hong did not soften his heart this time. As for whether he promised Lin Xiaoniang in private, it is not known.

At the end of March, the Sheng family took care of all the matters and went to Yangzhou Pier with officials of all sizes in Yangzhou seeing them off.

This time the Sheng family hired a total of two boats, although they were traveling in the same direction, they were going in different directions.

Before Sheng Hong received the transfer order, the head of the house sent invitations, and on the tenth day of April, the head of the house, Sun Changsong, got married.

Sheng Hong had just been promoted, and after taking up his post in Bianjing, he was too late to attend.And Sheng Hong had just taken office, so he was not at ease.

According to the original intention of the old lady, it was to send someone to send a heavy gift, and at the same time explain the situation, and the person would not go.

But now, Sheng Changlin needs to go back to his hometown to enter the genealogy for the matter of adoption. In addition, Sheng Hong made her very dissatisfied with Lin Xiaoniang's handling of the matter, so he simply went back to his hometown to attend the wedding of the eldest grandson of the big house, and by the way, take care of Changlin's adoption. , so two boats were chartered.

Besides the old lady taking Ming Lan and Chang Lin to their hometown, Yuan Wenshao and Hua Lan will also follow.

Firstly, it was because Yuan Wenshao had promised Sheng Wei to attend the Changsong wedding.

Secondly, because Hualan was pregnant, Yuan Wenshao was worried that her body would not be able to bear the stress of being on the boat for many days.

The Sheng family's hometown, Youyang, is in Tongzhou, just on the way back to Bianjing, going to attend the wedding, which can also let Hualan rest.

When they arrived at the dock, bid farewell to Yangzhou officials, and were about to board the ship, Gu Tingye appeared.

Gu Tingye had settled the affairs of the Bai family some time ago. He just stayed in Yangzhou because he knew about his mother's affairs and was a little evasive.

This time the Sheng family went to Bianjing, and he made an agreement with Changbai to go back with the boat.

Ming Lan, who was led by the old lady, saw Gu Tingye, remembered her mother's confession before she died, told her grandmother, asked Xiaotao to take out the pair of knee pads, stepped forward and gave it to Gu Tingye, and then ignored Gu Tingye's obstruction, Kowtow to thank.

……

Although the Sheng family has always called their hometown the countryside, in fact, although Youyang is a small town, it is the main transportation route from Tongzhou to Jinling and is quite prosperous.

Arrived in Tongzhou by boat, and took a half-day carriage to Youyang.

Before entering the town, Sheng Wei from the big house brought people up to greet him.

"Aunt, if Hongdi hadn't sent someone to notify her, my nephew wouldn't have known that aunt was coming back. There wouldn't even be anyone to greet her, so my mother should scold me." Sheng Wei complained with a smile on his face.

"Isn't this a temporary idea? I know You Yang very well. If my old sister-in-law talks about you, I'll help you talk about her." The old lady laughed.

When Sheng Wei sent someone to deliver the letter before, he promised to come. Later, when the order was issued and he decided not to come, he sent someone to deliver the letter again.

A series of things that happened after Wei Xiaoniang's death caused the old lady to change her mind, but she was afraid of trouble, so she didn't send anyone to tell her in advance.

Sheng Hong should have sent someone to notify him, otherwise Sheng Wei would really not know.

Even so, he didn't have time to go to the pier to pick him up, so he could only greet him outside the town.

Sheng Wei supported the old lady, looked at Yuan Wenshao and said with a smile: "Erlang said before that he would come to Changsong's wedding. I thought it was a joke. I didn't expect to actually come."

"Haha, uncle is blaming me for coming uninvited." Yuan Wenshao laughed.

"Don't talk nonsense, I even sent someone to Bianjing to send you an invitation." Sheng Wei said with a smile.

At this time, Minglan got off the carriage and bowed respectfully to Sheng Wei.

"I met my uncle."

"What's wrong with girl Ming? Why have you lost so much weight?" Sheng Wei asked suspiciously when he saw that Ming Lan had lost a lot of weight and was also very haggard.

Mrs. Wang looks down on Dafang, and Sheng Hong's children, except for Changbai and Minglan, are not very close to him.
