Hu Tao came up with a big bombshell: "Do you know why your uncle moved to the county?"

"?" A question mark popped up on Yu Hongdou's forehead.

"Your uncle's father-in-law, the old man from the Fu family, is quite interesting. He wants your cousin to change his surname and be adopted by the Fu family." Hu Tao rolled her eyes speechlessly.

It's really hard to imagine. Not to mention that Pan Bao is a great scholar, the Pan family themselves don't have many descendants. The Fu family has so many descendants, why would they want to snatch someone else's son?

"I have never been able to figure out what the old man of the Fu family is thinking." Yu Hongdou had to admit that Mr. Fu's thoughts were really different from others.

Even in modern society, no matter how much you cherish your grandchildren, you cannot force them to change their surnames even if you have a bunch of grandchildren.

"I did hear a rumor about this." Hu Tao looked at the children who had gathered together to play with Walnut, and whispered in his cousin's ear.

"It is said that when Mr. Fu was young, he fell in love with a young lady from a scholarly family. The young lady was pretty and knowledgeable."

"It's a pity that the family fell into decline. Mr. Fu accidentally saw the young lady and proposed to her with great enthusiasm. However, she would rather marry a poor scholar than be with him."

After saying this, Hu Tao looked at the other children again, only to meet Yu Zhi's big, sparkling eyes and became speechless for a moment.

Yu Hongdou found it unbelievable. Could it be that the old man was looking for something special on his cousin?

Shit, I feel sick just thinking about it.

"Oh, my uncle and cousin have a hard time too." Yu Hongdou came back to his senses and sighed.

Mr. Fu played one and a half roles in giving birth to and raising my cousin's mother. He gave birth to my cousin's mother and raised both of them.

However, Yu Hongdou knew that her uncle had not treated the Fu family unfairly.

Maybe he didn't contribute much when he went to help the Fu family in the first two years after getting married, but later his uncle's paper-making business took off, and not only did he make a lot of money, he also accumulated a lot of connections and helped the Fu family many times.

After my cousin started to receive education, my uncle started to make money. Actually, a lot of tuition and living expenses were transferred to the Fu family, but it was not easy to publicize this matter. As a result, it has become known to everyone now. Grandpa Fu has raised his grandson alone.

For the sake of his grandson, Mr. Fu even separated his family property from his children and grandchildren, leaving his uncle in a difficult position.

"Actually, there is a solution. I heard something from a passing merchant, and I think I can talk to your uncle about it." Hu Tao hesitated for a moment. She felt that this trick was a bit mean.

"What?" Since it concerns her cousin and aunt, Yu Hongdou, as an outsider, would definitely not get involved, but she could still give her uncle some advice or something.

Hu Tao whispered to Yu Hongdou what the merchant had said.

This merchant was from the south of the Yangtze River. His family was huge and he was part of a branch. He was talking about some strange things that happened in a family that did not get along well with his family.

There was an old man in that family who was very partial to his youngest son because the youngest son was born to his favorite concubine who died early. The old man felt sorry for his youngest son and was extremely partial to him.

In order to give his youngest son more money, the old man used many tricks, and even wanted to spend all his wealth to donate an official position to his youngest son.

"The merchant said that this youngest son is a bully and a market tyrant, and he is not a good person. If he really becomes an official, countless innocent people will suffer."

"The family was also afraid that the youngest son would offend people and bring trouble to the entire family after becoming an official, so they came up with an idea to let the old man change his career."

Hu Tao had a sly look in her eyes when she spoke, which made Yu Hongdou, who was originally eager to hear advice, want to laugh.

"Why change the route?" Yu Hongdou's curiosity was successfully piqued. Isn't this the same scene where the scumbag favors Bai Yueguang's son and then is punished?

"They found a woman who looked 70% like the youngest son's mother, pretended to be a woman in distress, and deliberately asked the old man to rescue her. Then the woman deliberately... After two months, the woman became pregnant."

Hu Tao was talking halfway when he suddenly paused and vaguely explained the whole process.

She forgot that her little cousin was still a little girl, and Hu Tao wanted to slap herself.

Yu Hongdou understood that although this trick was a bit mean, it was quite common in the struggles in the inner house.

If it is applied properly, maybe my uncle and cousin can really escape from this fight unscathed...

Yu Hongdou took note of it in her heart and decided to tell her parents quietly when she got back, and then they would tell her uncle.

The two sisters, one feeling guilty and the other having something to plan for themselves, remained silent for a while.

It just so happened that Mrs. Sun came in with the two children from Hu Tao's family, followed by her daughter-in-law and grandson.

"You two will have a lot of peace and quiet. I've sent the child back to you. Ask your sister-in-law to rest in this room as well. I'll go and ask your eldest sister-in-law to come in as well. You two can chat in this room."

Sun took her granddaughter's hand, held her grandson in her arms, and handed the two children to their mother. She turned around and helped her daughter-in-law before turning around and leaving.

"What are you two sisters talking about?" It was rare for Shen to see her two sisters-in-law together.

She knew that her sister-in-law was talkative, but they seldom met and there was always a layer of distance between them, so they had never been so close.

In Shen's eyes, the sister-in-law of the third room was no different from a fairy child. Although she had only met her a few times, Shen could vaguely feel that although this sister-in-law looked innocent and well-behaved, she was actually a little cold in her bones.

I was very surprised to see the two sisters, who were about ten years apart in age, chatting intimately together.

"My second sister told me about the gossips of the traveling merchants. Come to think of it, I saw a lot during my trip to the prefecture and county this time~" What happened just now was not a big deal, but Yu Hongdou changed the subject in order to avoid bringing up matters concerning her uncle and the Fu family.

"Yes, is the county fun?" Hu Tao also felt that what he had just said was inappropriate, and at the same time, he was also aroused by his little cousin's curiosity.

"Ha, it's fun, but it also brings a lot of trouble." Yu Hongdou shook her head and was about to open her mouth when her eldest cousin's wife, Mrs. He, came in.

"I got some food. Let's eat and chat. We don't have to worry about what's going on outside, but it's time to build good relationships with our sisters and brothers." He joked humorously and put a tray of food on the kang table.

"I just heard that you were going to the county magistrate to see the world. What did you see? Tell me about it so that I can open my eyes."

He first looked at her four children. Seeing that they were all well-behaved and had a lot of rare food in their hands, she couldn't help but smile and continued the topic that she had just interrupted.

"Well, there are some stories that are quite interesting to tell..." Yu Hongdou first recounted the story of Mi Sheng meeting the hat fairy that she had heard in the teahouse.

The sisters-in-law and aunts were all fascinated by the story. Yu Hongdou took a breath and was about to tell them Yunsheng's story.

Suddenly, He slapped her thigh and said, "Oh, isn't this Mi Sheng just like that old white-haired guy?"
