The old lady is reborn

Chapter 20: Can't give a bastard a name

Rong Ruozhi said: "It seems that she only thinks that the world is so big that nothing is impossible and nothing happens without coincidence, and she has never thought that it is her child.

You don't have to think too much. How can this illiterate child compare to Huaishan? Huaishan is already the prince, and he is our child, so you don't have to worry about him.

A child is honored by his mother. Even if that child is mine, how can a cheap woman like Song Ying compare to our childhood sweetheart? You are so sincere to me, I will not let you down. "

After returning from Tian Anran, Rong Ruozhi no longer mentioned asking Song Ying to send this man away, but it seemed that his anger was gone too.

Having ruined my own son like this, I was only heartbroken for an hour at most. Now I might still feel a little guilty, but I don't know what this bunch of jackals will think and do in the future.

Song Ying planned to give her son a suitable identity as soon as possible.

She said to Rong Ruozhi, "This man looks so much like the Marquis, and is so miserable. If he were to be left alone and seen by someone with ulterior motives, I'm afraid there would inevitably be rumors, which would be detrimental to the reputation of the Nan'an Marquisate.

He had suffered injuries throughout his life, his leg bones were broken and not properly connected... It would probably take a lot of suffering to heal these injuries.

I don't know why, maybe it's because of his appearance. I feel very sad when I see him. I really can't bear to push him out. He looks like the Marquis, so he must be destined to be with the Marquis's Mansion. I'll take care of him for now."

Rong Ruozhi listened, lowered his head and said: "In this case, I will follow you."

Song Ying said to Rong Ruozhi again: "His previous name was really indecent, I want to change it for him.

Moreover, he has been recuperating in the mansion for more than a day or two. It would be unreasonable for him to stay there for a long time without a legitimate status.

My Lord, how about we adopt him as our son?"

Rong Ruozhi was surprised and asked, "Want to open a clan temple? Change the family tree?"

Song Ying said: "That would be a big deal, and there would be a lot of discussion. It's enough if everyone in my own house knows about it. If I introduce him like this when I go out, it's just to gain a reputation."

Then he asked, "How about the name Huai'an? Rong Huai'an."

Rong Ruozhi said: "Since he is an adopted son, it would be inappropriate to give him a generational name with the character Huai, right? For example, Zi'an? Rong Zi'an?"

Song Ying did not intend to give in on the name, in the future... He smiled and said, "My Lord, have you already thought of this word Zi? Zi wood is precious and hard, with luxuriant branches and leaves, and it has a good meaning.

People usually think that the word "Zi" means returning to one's hometown. This name will make people feel that this is the Marquis's child, who has finally returned home. The Marquis chose this name because he felt..."

Rong Ruozhi was startled and said hurriedly, "An is better. Let's use the one you chose."

He walked away in a hurry, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Although the family tree was not changed, Song Ying reported Rong Huaian's name to the head of the village and officially registered him as an adopted son.

It was not until a long time later that the housekeeper Wu Siyu learned that there was a new adopted son, Rong Huaian, registered on the family's household registration.

Rong Huaishan and Wu Siyu went to see Rong Huaian on the pretext of visiting their mother Song Ying. They were also shocked when they saw him.

After returning, the two of them thought that judging from the appearance, it was most likely the result of their father Rong Ruzhi's romantic affair outside.

How shameless! At his age, such things still happen to him, bringing shame to his children and grandchildren.

My mother is really too virtuous. She still took me in, raised me and took care of me.

Originally, Rong Yunyue failed the imperial examination and was left out, which made the couple feel a little embarrassed, and now they feel even more upset.

Wu Siyu thought that it would be fine to just keep this person in the mansion, but why register him with the household registration?

He also felt that his mother Song Ying should be of the same mind as him and his wife on this matter, so he went to discuss it with Song Ying.

After hearing the purpose of the visit, Song Ying said, "Your father originally asked me if I wanted to open a clan temple, revise the family tree, and adopt this adopted son.

I refuted it because I said that the commotion was too big, alarmed too many people, and caused too much discussion.

Now it's just a household registration. Since your father has adopted him as his son, he can't report him as a stranger to the village head every year, right? If he reports him as a stranger, he has to explain where he is from.

As to where this guest came from, should you ask your father or ask the village head?

Now Rong Huaian is a refugee with amnesia, and the Zhenhai Escort Agency has come forward to testify. The medical examination and treatment prescriptions issued by various clinics say that he was recruited by bandits, imprisoned and tortured in the mountains, lost his memory, and was accidentally rescued by the Zhenhai Escort Agency.

Now you want to wipe out all this talk and let your father explain where this child came from? Say he is just a guest staying in our house for a few months?

But with this appearance, and your father has adopted a son, if you insist on changing this, what will outsiders think?

The mother has done her best by not putting him on the double family tree and just registering him as an adopted son.

Don't push your father to the point of losing his temper. With Rong Huai'an's appearance, if your father wants to open a clan temple to let the child recognize his ancestors and recognize his biological son, what can you say?"

Song Ying actually had her own plans. If she allowed Rong Huai'an to include him in the family tree now, there would be too much resistance. Not only the eldest son and daughter-in-law, but also Rong Ruozhi would find ways to stop her.

Second, now in the family tree, Rong Huaian can probably only be known as a concubine's son, but Song Ying doesn't want Rong Huaian to have the status of a concubine's son.

If he were to return to being the legitimate son in the future, the identity of an adopted son would be more respectable than that of a son born out of wedlock.

Wu Siyu remained silent after hearing this, and Song Ying changed the subject and asked, "Did you go to my aunt's house to collect the debt? Did you get back the money for the carriage, the coachman, and the tea?"

Wu Siyu complained after hearing this: "Mother, you are making it too difficult for your daughter-in-law. I am a junior, and I will lose status if I go to my aunt's house to collect debts.

My aunt is not very reasonable."

Song Ying asked, "Who agreed to lend it out in the first place? If it wasn't you who agreed to lend it out, then you should know who agreed, right?"

Wu Siyu said, "It was my aunt who said that my father agreed to her request, but when my father came back that day, my daughter-in-law asked about it and he didn't know about it."

Song Ying said: "This is your fault. Since you couldn't confirm with your father, you shouldn't have lent it out immediately. You should have delayed it for a day at least.

Since he had lent it out and knew he had been cheated, he should have asked for it back earlier. If he had asked for it back earlier, Yun Yue would not have been unable to send out his own carriage during the exam.

I think he failed this time, and you, as a mother, have to take some responsibility for your poor housekeeping.

If someone does something wrong in this family, there is no punishment at all. This is really unruly.

This time, either you reimburse the public account for the money that my aunt used for the carriage for seven months, and I will go to her about the tea myself.

Otherwise, I will have to reluctantly hand over the work of the big kitchen to Hua and let her take care of it. If she manages it well, she can also help you share some of the work to prevent you from being too exhausted and making mistakes as a housekeeper.

It was your great aunt who came to me and told me that if my younger daughter-in-law is not able to manage the household, she wanted me to find a few more people to share the burden.

Don't put the blame on her for the carriage's fault."

Rong Ruomei did say this the last time she came to Song Ying.

Hua was Rong Huaishan's concubine, and the illegitimate son Rong Yueqi was born to Hua. After hearing what Song Ying said, Wu Siyu's face turned very ugly, and she immediately put Rong Huaian's matter out of her mind, and her heart was on Hua.

Wu Siyu said: "But Hua Shi has come to my mother's place to cause trouble again recently?

If she hadn't asked her husband to take her out to travel on the day of the Yunyue exam, Yue'er wouldn't have been without a carriage that day."

Song Ying said: "She may have made mistakes, but you and your husband are the two masters, two masters, and you are the housekeeper. In the end, something like this happened. Your own child has no car for the imperial examination. Is this a good way to manage the family? You can't let a concubine bear the responsibility.

Speaking of going out to play, in the end Huaishan came to me and complained about everything, and also complained that he couldn't go out, and he stole my carriage and left.

Think about it yourself, either make up for this debt, or share some of that work."
