The first thousand five hundred and seventy-three chapters are unpredictable
Zhou Shuren went home from the yamen, Zhulan, "If you change your clothes, go to your fourth uncle's yard to persuade him, and the child should not be adopted by him."
Zhou Shuren thought of a remark when he received the news at the Ministry of Revenue, "Don't worry, I'll ask my fourth uncle to send the child back later."
Zhulan sighed, "Yes."
Zhou Shuren changed his clothes and drank a few cups of hot water. Then he slowly walked towards his fourth uncle's yard and arrived at his fourth uncle's yard, where the gate of the yard was closed.
Zhou Shuren, “!!”
Should he be glad that the old man did not move directly back to the Rong family next door?
Jinyan was about to come forward to knock on the door. Zhou Shuren raised his hand and went forward to knock on the door himself, "Fourth uncle, you can't solve the problem when you close the door. What's the point of you hiding for a day? You can't hide from me all the time."
The yard was very quiet. After Zhou Shuren finished speaking, he stopped knocking on the door. Soon the sound of footsteps came, and the closed door was opened. The two servants hurriedly greeted him, "Marquis."
Zhou Shuren nodded and walked in. When he entered the room, he saw his fourth uncle sitting on a rocking chair. He didn't see his grandson, and his wife didn't see the child today. The old man became willful and ignored him.
Rong Yusheng first spoke, "I know your purpose. I will tell you my heart. I am not at ease. Liu Jia raised her children. The Liu family was born in a small family. The environment of growing up made Liu Jia marry a good mistress to a family of equal families. This child has his own advantages, but it is not enough to marry into the Rong family. If you don't talk about me, you will say that she is not confident when she gets married, and this child cannot be raised for her."
Zhou Shuren found a comfortable place to sit down, signaling the girl who sent snacks and tea to go down, and then he said, "I won't refute the words of the fourth uncle, you are right."
At that time, the Zhou family had no current power and status. Who could predict the future? The Zhou family adopted Mingteng. For the sake of the reputation of the Rong clan and the Zhou family, they could not withdraw from their brides. Without mentioning the harm caused by the ancient women to withdraw from their brides, even the reputation of the two families was not allowed to be flawed.
Rong Yuxian was surprised. He knew this nephew very well, but he was 70% or 80% of the time. This person was not the one who listened to the elders, not to mention that Zhou Shuren relied on himself today. He, an elder, lacked confidence in front of Zhou Shuren.
Rong Yu-jeong, "Do you agree to my adoption?"
Zhou Shuren shook his head slowly, "Don't agree."
The old man glared at his eyes angrily and lay back on the rocking chair.
Zhou Shuren laughed, "First of all, your starting point is good. Mingteng was raised by you at the time. When Mingteng was not adopted, I did not have too high requirements for Mingteng, so Liu Jia was very suitable for Mingteng at that time. Later, Mingteng adopted it, and Mingteng had the responsibility and ability today, all depends on your careful teaching. I believe that the upbringing of the child to you will be the heir who can satisfy the undead of the Rong clan."
Rong Yu turned his head and stared at Zhou Shuren with his eyes fixed on him. He wanted to listen to what Zhou Shuren had to say so much.
Zhou Shuren said slowly: "But you are old and I'm honest and say don't be angry. How many years can you live? Can you guarantee that you will live until your children grow up and inherit the Rong family? No, you don't know how long you can live!"
Rong Yufeng narrowed his eyes, "I will leave the people in my hands for the child."
Zhou Shuren smiled and shook his head, "Not enough, the parents of a child are the ones who teach by words and deeds. Children are born with desire for parents. You cannot replace the children's parents, and it will only cause the child to have a gap with their biological parents. Liu Jia is the child's mother. Don't underestimate the estrangement of a mother to the child. People's hearts are biased and you cannot control the future after death."
Rong Yuxian was silent and said for a while: "Are you still there?"
Zhou Shuren pointed at himself and shook his head, "I can't do it either. Fourth uncle, I am not young anymore. Human life is too fragile. I can't guarantee whether I can live to Changlian and take on the Zhou family."
Rong Yu's voice was a little hoarse, "You are still young."
Zhou Shuren shook his head, "I'm not young anymore. As I grow older year by year, I will worry that our Zhou Hou Mansion, the roots of the Hou Mansion are not deep enough. Although Changyi and Changlian are officials, they are not yet in a state of affairs. Zhou Hou Mansion has its current power and prosperity. It depends on me. Once I die, the emperor will take care of my contributions, but how long can he take care of me?"
Rong Yu was relieved, "You are right, the Rong clan was so prominent back then. Your Zhou family was too far apart, and the background of the aristocratic family in the capital was also far apart. Without your protection, the survival of the Zhou Hou Mansion would only be more difficult. Your sons, Chang Lian, grew up slowly."
Zhou Shuren, "Sometimes luck is very important. Chang Lian should have been promoted, but the successive disasters trapped him in Qizhou. So things are unpredictable. Fourth uncle, you must really think about your child. Leave this child to Mingteng and his wife to raise. The child is older. What is the difference between your personal enlightenment and teaching? "
Zhou Shuren continued: "Fourth uncle, this is really good for the Rong clan. You don't want brothers to fight each other in the future. The Rong clan will fall apart."
Rong Yuyan lowered his head and waved for a while, "It's getting late, you've been busy all day, go back for supper."
Zhou Shuren didn't stay much, and stood up quickly, "Then I'll go back for supper."
"Go back."
Zhou Shuren did not hesitate at all. It was useless to argue with the old man. Just analyze it clearly. The old man experienced too many storms and waves, and the old man understood everything.
Rong Yu stood up to see the child. The child looked like Mingteng. He was silent for a while before turning back in sighs.
In the main yard, the food has been delivered. Zhulan saw Shuren relaxed, "Is it done?"
"When he figured out that the child would be sent back, Liu Jia needed to rest, so there was no hurry."
The bamboo orchids were served with soup and put them in front of Shuren. He picked up the chopsticks himself, but he couldn't help but sigh, "It's not easy to marry a daughter in a high family."
Zhou Shuren said quietly: "Yu Lu is indeed a blessing. She gave birth to two sons in succession. The five-year agreement is no longer a sword on her head. This girl is a blessing."
Zhulan thought of her granddaughter and smiled a lot on her face, "The Wang family just wanted to offer Yu Lu as their ancestors, and gave Yu Lu a good thing to flow water. Tao said that the old lady said Yu Lu was a hero of the Wang family. Even Yu Lu's mother-in-law wrote to Yu Lu personally, and your granddaughter was almost leaving the Wang family."
Zhou Shuren laughed in a low voice, "Yulu has indeed changed the fact that the Wang family's children are not rich. Wang Ju said that the other two families are so envious. You didn't see Wang Ju showing off."
Zhulan, "You can imagine that, hey, this also shows that the aristocratic families care about the inheritance of their offspring."
Zhou Shuren, “Yes.”
The next day, when he went to the morning court, Zhou Shuren accepted the congratulations. Too many people envied Zhou Shuren, who was a boy again. The one who lacked a family was the boy who had the legitimate son and grandson.
