Mrs. Gao had been frightened for a long time. Now when she heard that her father-in-law actually said that he wanted to divorce her, she was naturally frightened. Without saying a word, she only nodded in agreement.
Xie Xiuwen looked at the reactions of these people with an indifferent expression, but he was sneering in his heart.
Why didn't he realize that his mother, brother and sister-in-law were so timid before?
This is the so-called guilty conscience!
He didn't even bring the midwife to confront her. Gao admitted everything, and his mother and father dealt with it hastily. What does this mean?
Does it mean that they also know the past events?
Or maybe the father is suspicious, but is unwilling to make things worse and ruin the Xie family's reputation?
Xie Xiuwen's heart felt cold. Born in such a family, it was a miracle that he hadn't gone crazy yet.
In this way, Xie Xiaolang's adoption into Xie Xiuwen's name was a certainty.
Because Xie Xiuwen had experienced two failures, this time when he came back from taking the provincial examination, no one in the tribe dared to ask more questions, just for fear of saying the wrong thing again.
Xie Changgui didn't agree at first. Although Xie Xiaolang is still young, he can do a lot of work now and eat less, so it's a good deal.
But who was the clan leader? After breaking the matter apart, Xie Changgui did not dare to say any more.
Okay, if you don't allow adoption, then you will have to pay for Xie Xiaolang's marriage and childbirth expenses in the future. Also, Xie Xiaolang is six years old and is about to be enlightened. You also have to get this bunch of cultivation, don't say you don't have it. Money, your family is still living in the house of Xie Xiaolang’s parents!
In this way, Xie Changgui didn't dare to say anything, he signed and pressed his fingerprints happily, and Xie Xiaolang's name was included in Xie Xiuwen's ancestral genealogy.
Xie Xiuwen had already thought of a name for him and changed it directly to Xie Ronlang.
However, everyone had been calling him Xiaolang for many years, and they couldn't change their words for a while, so they continued to call him Xiaolang. People who didn't know about it might just think that Xie Ronlang was the youngest, so he was called Xiaolang.
The matter of adoption is not a trivial matter, but it is not an eye-catching matter either. After all, such things often happen in the clan these days.
Xie Xiuwen means to wait until the results are released and then look at the results.
If you are lucky enough to be in high school, you will have a recognition banquet and a wedding banquet at the same time; if you are not successful, then just wait until the family is all together to have a meal together.
Xie Xiaolang was adopted, and now the happiest person in the Xie family is Liu Ruolan.
She knew that from now on she would have a son, and she would no longer have to worry about being abandoned by her husband.
To put it bluntly, even if Xie Xiuwen becomes a nobleman in high school in the future and she has a son by her side, she will not be afraid that he will take a concubine again. After all, she still knows the difference between a legitimate son and a concubine.
With a son and a daughter, Liu Ruolan felt that she had nothing else to seek in this life.
The ranking has not yet been announced, so Xie Xiuwen doesn't feel much pressure. Every day he either takes Xie Xiaolang to read and read, or takes him up the mountain to do whatever he can.
Liu Ruolan's wish has been fulfilled. She works as a female celebrity every day, and cooks some delicious meals to replenish the health of her father and son. These days, her life is more abundant, her mood is better, and her complexion is gradually getting better.
Grandma Xie looks gloomy every day.
She is really worried!
If the second child wins the election, the family will no longer be able to suppress him.
Not to mention the eldest brother, the entire clan must respect the Master of Juren.
Grandma Xie let out a long sigh. Now that things have come to this, she doesn't dare to let anyone send letters to the capital anymore.
Now she can only pray every day, hoping that God will bless her, but she must not let her second child fall into the trap.
Mrs. Gao supported her and lit incense sticks in the temple at the head of the village, and took some fruits as offerings.
"Auntie, if the second child is elected, how can we explain it to the noble man?"
"Why are you so anxious? The results haven't been released yet. We'll know when the results come out."
How could Mr. Gao not be in a hurry?
"But if he is successful, the news must not be hidden. What if that person starts to blame?"
"Huh, what are you afraid of! At most, they will stop giving us benefits. Our family is not too poor to open the pot. If we don't give benefits, we won't be able to eat?"
No matter how anxious Xie Grandma was, her face remained calm.
Mr. Gao has no city in mind and can't keep things in order. It is inevitable that there are signs of being in a hurry at this moment.
"You should be more steady. Not to mention that he doesn't win the exam, but what if he does? In the future, I will go to the capital to take the exam. Do you think this is just a joke? How much silver will it cost? Then I will find an excuse. He said he has no money at home, what else can he do?"
Mrs. Gao curled her lips and said, "Auntie, you forgot that Mr. Liu still has a shop."
Grandma Xie sneered: "So what? How much money is that? Besides, just because he has money in his hand, it doesn't mean he has to give it to his second son. If I get seriously ill and my family doesn't have enough money to pay for it, To buy medicine for the doctor, do you think you can use this money with peace of mind?"
Gao's eyes lit up: "Wonderful! It has to be you."
Gao felt much more at ease now.
Otherwise, ginger must be very old!
Grandma Xie has been thinking about this matter these days.
Even if Xie Xiuwen cannot be prevented from passing the examination, he can at least be delayed for three years before taking the examination.
After all, the one in Beijing will also take part in the examination next year, so it will be difficult to deal with it if he encounters him.
Grandma Xie knew that the talent of that person was obviously not as good as Xie Xiuwen, otherwise, she wouldn't have been using advantage to suppress Xie Xiuwen all these years.
If she hadn't used some tricks, Xie Xiuwen would have gotten ahead by now.
Grandma Xie didn't feel there was anything wrong with suppressing her own son.
The family business must be inherited by the eldest son. Xie Xiuwen is the second eldest son. He has been smarter than others since he was a child. He loves to show off!
Suppressing him for several years also let him know who has the final say in the family!
Grandma Xie took a deep breath, bowed again, and then was supported by Mrs. Gao to walk back.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were still muttering quietly. If they were pretending to be sick, they would naturally have to make preparations in advance.
Mrs. Gao actually wants to know how much money the nobles have given to her mother-in-law over the years, and she doesn't know how much money will be left when it is passed to her in the future.
"Auntie, does daddy know how much money our family has?"
Grandma Xie sneered and said, "Of course he knows how much money is on the surface. Don't worry, I have already thought about this matter. I discussed with him to set aside part of the money first, just for future needs. It is for the grandchildren to study and no one can touch it. If I ask Mr. Liu for money then, he will have nothing to say."
Mr. Gao breathed a sigh of relief. This way, he could make a lot of calculations.
And listening to her mother-in-law's wishes, she should be hiding much more secretly than she is showing on the surface!
This is easy to handle.
"Auntie, when the Guibang comes out, do we have to go to the capital to deliver the news?"
