She loses if she divorces, the reborn mistress only divorces her husband

Hearing that they were discussing the issue of "adoption", Qin Guangyao stopped and looked around.

Not seeing anyone else, he continued to eavesdrop by sticking to the wall.

Sun's tone was very dissatisfied.

"What is the old lady thinking? It's not like Changzhou doesn't have children. There's already Fan, but why do you insist on adopting Yao and his sister under your name?"

"Brother Yao is older than Brother Fan. If he is adopted, he will be the eldest son. Are we going to give away the title that we have worked so hard to get?"

Li Jingwan persuaded, "Mother-in-law, I think the old lady feels guilty. My eldest brother has been named the crown prince. If he had not died in battle, he should have inherited the title. So the old lady hopes that my eldest brother's son will continue to inherit the title."

"Even if Qin Chongxiao were alive, it wouldn't be Yao'er's turn." Sun snorted, "Yao'er was born to a concubine. How could a concubine's son possibly inherit the title? If this gets out, aren't you afraid of being laughed at by outsiders?"

Qin Guangyao pursed his lips when he heard this, anger and humiliation surged in his heart.

Why can't he inherit the title?

The title of Marquis Wu'an should have belonged to him, he is Qin Changzhou's eldest son!

"Besides, what does the old lady have to feel guilty about?" Sun was usually controlled by Old Madam Qin and didn't dare to say anything.

Now he can't help but express his feelings to his daughter-in-law.

"Originally, the Imperial Clan House was going to take away the title, but the court allowed Changzhou to inherit the title out of consideration for your Li family's reputation. What does this have to do with the first wife?"

"Jingwan, I'm telling you, Changzhou is soft-hearted and kind-hearted. He must have been brainwashed by Qin Zhongxiao when he was in the northwest a few years ago. Not only did he take good care of Yao'er and his sister, he also wanted to return the title to the first wife. I don't agree!"

He became more and more excited as he spoke, and finally started coughing.

"Mother-in-law, please don't be angry and take care of yourself." Li Jingwan advised, "Although the old lady asked me to accept the adoption, I refused."

"I did this mainly for the sake of the Second House." Li Jingwan sighed, "Changzhou already has a bastard son, and he adopted Yao Ge'er as the eldest son. Wouldn't that make the Second House's aunt feel cold? Outsiders also think that the Second House wants to cut off the First House's lineage."

"Jingwan, you are just too soft-hearted, just like Changzhou." Sun was still angry, "The old lady is too partial to the eldest wife."

"Mother-in-law, don't be angry. I think things will turn around soon."

"Turning point?" Sun asked doubtfully, "What do you mean?"

Li Jingwan said, "Madam Tang is pregnant now. If she gives birth to a boy, Changzhou will have two sons. Although they are both illegitimate sons, they are still the bloodline of the second house. I thought that if I can't give birth, I can choose one of these two to adopt."

"Fan'er is only a little over a year old. The two children are young, and we have raised them since they were young, so the relationship is deeper. Although Yao'er is not bad, he is a little older after all, and he is not Changzhou's biological son."

"That's a good idea!" Sun agreed immediately and clapped her hands, "The second branch has two boys. I don't think the old lady would be embarrassed to let Yaoge'er be adopted into the second branch and take the position of the eldest son!"

These words made Qin Guangyao feel like he was falling into an icy cave.

He originally thought that adoption was a sure thing, but now that his biological mother was pregnant, there was no hope at all.

When he was imprisoned in the Fang Mansion, the servants in the mansion said that he was the son of a concubine and how dare he be so unruly. Thinking of this scene, Qin Guangyao's eyes turned red and he bit his lower lip.

And my mother, ever since she entered the mansion as a concubine, has cared less about him and even blamed him for framing Concubine Zhou.

If she gave birth to a son, would she still plan for herself?

Li Jingwan treats him well, but she is not his biological mother and will not always side with him.

Just as I was daydreaming, Bitao's voice came from not far away.

"Cui Yu, next time you put the gift in the Duobao Pavilion, I won't forget to bring it."

"I told you a long time ago, but you were so busy eating your snacks that you didn't even listen."

Qin Guangyao was startled and wiped his eyes quickly, not daring to stay any longer.

Soon, Cuiyu and Bitao appeared. They looked at Qin Guangyao's back as he walked towards the flower hall and smiled at each other.

-

After coming out of the Second Lady's courtyard, Qin Guangyao went straight to Qin Lingyun's courtyard.

Now, he could only find Qin Lingyun and ask her to find a solution.

He pushed open Qin Lingyun's bedroom door, "Sister!"

Qin Lingyun, who was sitting in front of the dressing table, quickly threw the things into the makeup box, closed the lid and turned around to yell.

"Brother Yao, why are you so rude? Who told you to come in directly?"

Qin Guangyao did not retort as usual, but closed the door and said, "Sister, I have something very important to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Qin Lingyun didn't care. She stood up and walked over, wanting to pour some water.

"About our adoption." Qin Guangyao said anxiously, "I just overheard what my aunt and the second lady said."

Qin Lingyun paused while picking up the teacup, and asked him to come over and sit down, "Tell me in detail."

Qin Guangyao then told everyone what he had overheard.

Sure enough, Qin Lingyun's face changed, "No, no!"

She can't accept it.

A few days ago, she and Chu Lin had a secret meeting in Zhaoyun Temple, and Chu Lin said that his family had started preparing the betrothal gifts.

As soon as she was adopted, the Chu family immediately went to the Wu'an Marquis' Mansion to propose marriage.

Next year, when he is granted an official position, she will be the official's wife and will definitely become a first-rank lady.

If she couldn't be adopted, then she couldn't marry Chu Lin.

Without the status of the eldest daughter, it is difficult for her to find a good marriage!

"Sister, what do you think we should do?" Qin Guangyao was very worried. "Aunt doesn't want us at all. She would rather choose someone from my father's illegitimate sons to adopt."

"Don't even think about it!" Qin Lingyun gritted her teeth, "You can only be the eldest son of the Marquis' Mansion, and I must be the eldest daughter."

"What should we do?" Qin Guangyao asked anxiously, "How about we go find our father?"

"No." Qin Lingyun rejected the proposal. "Li Jingwan is the mistress, and there is also the second wife. Father will be influenced by them."

"Then who to look for?"

"Of course the government can make the decision."

Qin Guangyao was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "Old Madam."

"Yes." Qin Lingyun nodded, "Brother Yao, come here. Next you do this..."

Qin Guangyao leaned over and nodded continuously when he heard Qin Lingyun's plan.

-

When she woke up in the morning, Old Madam Qin drank blood bird's nest as usual.

Just as he put down the bowl, Qin Lingyun rushed in, looking anxious.

"Great-grandmother, something bad has happened. Please go and see Yao Ge'er."

"Sister Yun, what's wrong?" Old Madam Qin's heart skipped a beat. "Didn't Brother Yao go to the clan school?"

"My brother didn't go." Qin Lingyun was very anxious. "My brother was sick and was lying in bed. He didn't let them know or call a doctor. It was his servant who saw that he was seriously ill and came to see me secretly."

"Oh, my little ancestor, you are really making me anxious to death. Mother Zhang, go get Doctor Cao."

Madam Qin stood up quickly and said, "Come on, take me to see it."
