"The fifth master from the side branch lost his grandson a year ago. He died trying to save me, so I want to adopt a son to be his grandson's son." Zhao Yiran looked at Wei Shichu, who was still lowering his head and holding his son's hand. As a matter of course, Said, "I selected the third son you gave birth to as an adopted son."
Wei Shichu immediately used his acting skills, raised his head suddenly, with tears in his eyes, looked at Zhao Yiran in disbelief, and said: "No! Master, you can't be so cruel! The third young master is also your biological son, how could you adopt him? Get out...please, don't let him be adopted, how can I live without him..."
When Zhao Yiran heard her crying, he was very impatient and scolded: "Why are you crying? Look at what you look like now? With a biological mother like you, his life in this mansion is not as good as that of a shameless servant. Why not just adopt him to the fifth master's house? At least the fifth master will love him as if he were his eyeballs. Isn't this better than him being an unknown transparent person in the house now?
If you are really good for him, you shouldn't cry, but be happy for him. He is my biological son, how can I not love him? It is said that he would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. He can't compare with the other brothers in the house, but when he comes to the fifth master's house, he is the only junior, and the whole family supports him. He will definitely live a better life than in this house..."
Zhao Yiran shamelessly avoided the important and took the easy. He said these words just to fool Wei Shichu. However, Wei Shichu choked him with just one sentence: "Master! The third young master in this mansion is your biological son, the grandson of the former chief minister and the third-rank eldest son." The son of an official, but if he is adopted into the fifth master’s family, he will become the child of an ordinary person. This status is so different, how can you bear to push him into the mud pit..."
Zhao Yiran was speechless by Wei Shichu's question, but of course he couldn't be questioned, so he simply reprimanded in a stern tone: "Shut up! In short, I have already decided on this matter. I am just telling you now, not talking to you." You discuss it, you are just an aunt and have no qualifications to interfere with the young master's affairs."
"No...Master, if you really want to adopt my son, then simply divorce me! Otherwise, even if I die, I will not agree to let the third young master adopt him..." Wei Shichu's performance was so low that his eyes were red and his eyes were red. Staring at Zhao Yiran with wide eyes, he looked like a strong mother who would risk everything for her son.
Zhao Yiran was aroused by her appearance and became furious: "Ms. Wei! Are you threatening me? Okay, okay... I didn't expect that a coward like you would dare to yell at me, so I'll make it happen." You, I’ll divorce you!”
When Wei Shichu heard what he said, she immediately felt happy, but she couldn't show it yet. Instead, she looked heartbroken, shook her head and looked at him in disbelief, and said, "Even if you divorce me, I will still marry you." The third young master adopts a child? You, you are not worthy of being a father at all!"
Zhao Yiran could not withstand being scolded by the concubine he had always looked down upon. Hearing Wei Shichu's words, he became even more angry. Gritting his teeth, he took out the pen and paper on the desk and said, "No matter whether I am worthy of being a father or not, I can You can’t even be a mother! If you said you wanted to adopt a son, I would divorce you first, then I will make it happen for you..."
As he said that, he really wrote Xiu's book in one go. After he finished writing, he didn't even wait for it to dry before throwing it on Wei Shichu.
Wei Shichu caught the piece of paper as if she had found a treasure, feeling excited. This was the proof that she left the Zhao Mansion and regained her freedom!
At this time, a childish cry sounded in the study. It turned out that Wei Shichu and Zhao Yiran were so involved in the quarrel that they forgot that Zhao Lue was also present, and Zhao Lue was initially distracted by the appearance of the two arguing. I was so frightened that I forgot to cry, and I didn’t cry until now.
He didn't even dare to cry wantonly, he just sobbed intermittently, suppressing himself and not daring to cry too loudly. While crying, he moved closer to the person he was most familiar with.
Wei Shichu realized that she had neglected her and felt very guilty. His soft little body was pressed against her, and his look of dependence made her heart soften. She put away the divorce letter, picked up Zhao Lue, and coaxed her. Said: "Baby, don't be afraid, mother will protect you..."
"Mom, let's go back..." Zhao Lue cried and said with sobs.
"Okay, let's go back now." Wei Shichu hugged him and was about to leave the study.
Zhao Yiran saw that the mother and son were so blatantly ignoring him, and he immediately said with malice: "Why are you crying? A boy is raised to be more delicate than a daughter. If he doesn't step out, wouldn't it be a disgrace to our Zhao family?"
"And you, Mrs. Wei, where is your etiquette training? You don't even say hello when you leave. Is this how you teach your children by example?"
Wei Shichu turned around and sneered, took out the divorce letter and said, "Master Zhao, now I am no longer your concubine, there is no need or need to say hello to you."
Zhao Yiran was so angry at her words that his head started to smoke, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! I'll just see what your life will be like after I abandon you. Don't come back on your knees to beg me to take you in."
"Don't worry, it won't happen." Wei Shichu sneered, "Also, if you want to adopt Zhao Lue, do it more thoroughly. Don't wait for Zhao Lue to make a difference and then keep trying to take him back."
Zhao Yiran glanced sarcastically at Zhao Lue, who was sobbing when Wei Shichu said it, and said disdainfully: "He is just crying like this. If he wants to be successful, he can do it in the next life. I am also worried that he will not be able to do well in the future and come to the house to enjoy the autumn breeze... Naturally, I will adopt him completely..."
"That's good." Wei Shichu got the result he wanted and immediately took Zhao Lue away, not forgetting to leave a sentence, "I will stay here with him until the day of adoption. Once he adopts him, I will Leave the house immediately."
"No, you have to leave immediately. Now you are no longer a member of my house, and you are not qualified to see Zhao Lue." Zhao Yiran was narrow-minded and immediately began to embarrass Wei Shichu.
Wei Shichu never expected that this man was so petty, so he turned around and sneered at him and said: "Then I will hang myself at the door of your house immediately, saying that you will force me to death. After all, I am still King An's daughter, even if I am not favored, I will keep it." I just don’t know if Mr. Zhao can bear the blood of the clan.”
She really hit Zhao Yiran's vital point. Even though King An is not favored by the emperor now, he is still the emperor's younger brother. Even to maintain the dignity of the royal family, the emperor will not allow him to force his brother's daughter to death. Zhao Yiran has always been aware of current affairs. Therefore, even though he hated Wei Shichu so much, he had to endure it and watch her leave victoriously.
But at least the adoption was settled, so it wasn't too much of a failure. Zhao Yiran comforted himself and sneered: Wei Shichu thought he didn't dare to abandon her? Hum, forcing her to death would put him in trouble, but abandoning her would not. Wei Shichu's calculation was wrong.
Little did he know that Wei Shichu had now got his wish.
