Chapter 16 16 Mother is right

Thinking that such a smart child was her grandson, Mrs. Zhou loved him even more.

"Niece-in-law, I think Mr. Hou and your mother-in-law like this child very much. Besides, this child is quite pitiful. Why don't you just adopt him?"

At this time, Zhou's biological sister, Lin Ningkun's aunt, Kang Wang said.

In her previous life, this Kang Wang family had caused many embarrassments to her in the Lin family.

Jiang Ruanxi stepped forward and said with a smile, "Look at what my aunt said. I am still young, and the Marquis is still here, and I can have children of my own in the future. Everyone just heard that this child said that his mother and the imperial concubine grew up together. For example, I am more destined to the Crown Princess, and she probably prefers the Crown Princess as her mother, and I don’t want to separate the child from her. I have seen that it would be more suitable to give it to the Crown Princess."

Hearing this, Jiang Xuerou looked at Jiang Ruan Xi in disbelief, her face turned pale, and her body froze for a moment.

Seeing this, Webster quickly took her hand and winked at her to tell her not to panic.

When everyone saw Jiang Xuerou's reaction, they thought she was frightened.

After all, she was a woman who had never given birth to a child. She came to congratulate her and was given a stepson. She felt sorry for her, but no one stood up to speak for her.

Kang Wang's face also turned ugly. She didn't expect that Jiang Ruan Xi, who had always been weak, would embarrass her and glare at her fiercely.

When Mrs. Zhou heard that her grandson was going to be given away, her expression changed, and she immediately accused Jiang Ruan Xi, "Why are you talking like this kid? Your aunt was just joking. This kid was brought back by Master Hou. He is the orphan of Mr. Hou’s best friend, and he must take him with him to train him well.”

The implication is that this child will not go anywhere except in the Hou Mansion.

Being scolded in public, Jiang Ruanxi was not angry, "Mother is right, but I know that the original intention of the Marquis in bringing him back was to give him a better future. My wife feels that the child who went to the Zhenguo Marquis' Mansion is not as good as ours." The Marquis Mansion has more prospects, so my wife made this suggestion."

Everyone thought Jiang Ruan Xi was overbearing just now, but now that she had said this, they all felt that she was right.

Now that the eldest son of the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion is gone, if Lin Xiao goes to the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion, he will be able to inherit the title of the Marquis Mansion after the old marquis dies.

As for Dingninghou Mansion, if Jiang Ruan Xi gave birth to a son later, it would be impossible for Lin Xiao to inherit the title.

Zhou's mouth twitched. If Lin Xiao was not her grandson, she would have approved of this with all hands and feet. But now that she knew that Lin Xiao was her grandson, how could she let the flesh and blood of the Lin family go to someone else's house.

So, she raised the tea cup at hand and bumped it hard on the table. The tea overflowed a little, but she didn't care at all.

"There is no need to discuss this matter. The Marquis promised his dead friend that he would raise his son well and train him to become talented in the future. We promised him and turned around and sent him to Doesn’t this make us lose trust in other people’s homes?”

Jiang Ruan Xi was not frightened at all, and the expression on his face did not change.

"Why is mother giving it away? This child will be the grandson of the second sister. I believe the second sister will take good care of him."

Zhenguo Houfu has an heir, and the relatives of Zhenguohoufu will not continue to cause trouble.

The key is that the princess of the Zhenguo Hou Mansion is Lin Ningkun's sister, and she will take good care of Lin Xiao both emotionally and rationally.

This can not only solve the problem of Lin Xiao's stay, but also help his daughter. In the eyes of others, this matter is the best choice.

But Zhou's face turned green with anger.

She couldn't say that Lin Xiao was her grandson, but she had no reason to refute Jiang Ruan Xi, so she could only glare at Jiang Ruan Xi. "I also think my nephew-in-law's idea is a good one. This will not only help Qingxu, but also give the child a good place to go." At this time, an aunt in the Lin family said.

Hearing this, Zhou was so angry that she almost fainted.

Jiang Ruan Xi was indifferent, and even felt extremely happy in his heart. He pretended not to see it and stood aside calmly.

Jiang Xuerou's face began to turn pale, as if someone had been leaning against a fire. She was extremely uncomfortable, but she could not let out a cry of pain.

"They naturally have their own opinions about the affairs of Zhenguo Marquis Mansion. As outsiders, if we just throw a child in, others will admit it? So let's not say more here. If outsiders hear it, we may not be able to laugh at it. What? Besides, if they want to adopt a child, they have to find one they are satisfied with."

Webster, who had been silent, stepped forward.

These words also made everyone present wake up.

Zhou glanced at her gratefully, as if she had found a step, and quickly agreed, "My in-laws are right, don't talk about this matter anymore. As for Brother Xiao's whereabouts, it is up to the Marquis to decide, don't you think so?" , daughter-in-law.”

Mrs. Zhou emphasized the word daughter-in-law hard.

Jiang Ruanxi glanced at Zhou and Wei indifferently, and smiled, "Mother is right, this adoptive child is a big deal. It depends on what the Marquis wants, but you also have to find someone you are satisfied with."

The double entendre made both Zhou and Wei's expressions change. Zhou knew that there were some things that couldn't be rushed now, and she didn't want others to see the joke in their house.

He changed the subject and said, "Let's talk about this later. I think it's almost time. It's time to start the banquet. My daughter-in-law, you go to the front hall and have a look."

"Mom is right, I will go to the front and take a look."

After Jiang Ruanxi left, Mrs. Zhou also greeted everyone to the front hall.

Jiang Xuerou, who walked to the back, thought of the dangerous situation just now, and the paleness on her face has not yet recovered.

Webster took her hand, patted the back of her hand, and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, Xueer, mother is still there for everything."

Jiang Xuerou nodded, her eyes were red, tears instantly flowed down her cheeks, and she said with an aggrieved face, "Mother, tell me why my sister did this to me. Does she know something?"

After saying that, the tears flowed more quickly.

Webster didn't have any confidence in his heart, but Jiang Ruan Xi today was so abnormal.

But seeing the fear and grievance of the daughter he held in his hands, he suppressed the doubt in his heart and raised his hand to wipe her tears.

With a gentle look on her face, she said, "Xue'er, don't think too much about it. We hid it so well. She is just jealous of you, so she deliberately targeted you. Don't take it to heart today. Everything is still with us."

Jiang Xuerou blinked her red face and said in a hoarse voice, "Mother, thank you for helping me. But I really don't want to go back to Zhenguo Hou's Mansion. The prince is gone and they all bully me. I don't want to go back."

As he spoke, the tears that had stopped a moment ago continued to flow out more fiercely.
