Chapter 37 Vow to compete with Guanyin for performance (2)
Lin Ruhai was silent for a while, then softly comforted:
"Oh, Min'er, I can't blame you for this.
This is because the heirs of my Lin family are in trouble, so let’s not mention the matter of taking concubines. I am already old and have no intention of doing so. I think it is God’s will, so I can’t force it.”
Four years ago, Lin Ruhai was overjoyed when his son was born, and a year ago, he was overjoyed when his son died in infancy. Under the great joy and great sadness, he was already quite depressed, and could even be described as looking away.
Start trusting destiny.
Believe that there will be no children in your destiny, and you will not be able to force yourself.
"What about adoption?"
"We are already quite old, and we don't know how many more years we can protect Yu'er. In today's world, if the daughter's family does not have a brother to support her and her parents' family to rely on, then she will have to suffer a lot of injustice when she gets married in the future, and will only swallow bitter tears in her stomach.
.
I often hear about people who live off their wealth.
The orphan girl was forced to death, and the family property was occupied and divided.
Every time I think about it, I feel worried and frightened. I wake up in the middle of the night and find it difficult to fall asleep, worrying about Yu'er.
Even if it is just one adopted, it still counts.
You can feel more at ease after all..."
As a parent, no one cares about their children and grandchildren. The thinner the heirs and the fewer children, the more worried they are, not to mention the extremely harsh world today for women.
Yes, and I only have one daughter.
From this point of view, Jia Min's life is short, and his health is not good, which is normal. He has been taking fertility drugs for more than ten years. He is often worried about the Lin family's heir, and has no face to deal with the ancestors of the Lin family. In recent years, he has begun to worry.
The daughter has no brothers to help her, and her mother's family relies on her, so her future will be difficult.
Taking medicine will destroy the body, and excessive sorrow will destroy the spirit. The essence, energy, and spirit are all destroyed together. It is strange that the body can be healthy. Until now, she is considered to have a good foundation.
Daiyu is very worried and thoughtful.
Maybe it was inherited from her mother?
"Well, I don't know, but my Lin family has very few heirs. Not to mention mine, there are not many people from the side branches of the clan. There are very few people with two sons in the family. Although if I mention it, there will definitely be someone willing.
Adoptive, but among those whose parents have died, there is no one who is young or unknown and whose parents are still alive.
You may not be close to a stepson who recognizes him as an adult. Who knows whether a stepson who recognizes his parents will be manipulated by his biological parents in the future and use his status as a stepson as a springboard to seize the family property.
No matter what the situation is.
So it’s not like he’s a different kind of desperate person!”
After sighing and explaining a few more sentences, Lin Ruhai spoke with emotion about the past events recorded at home:
"My ancestor of the Lin family once had a good friend, Guo Deng, who performed meritoriously during the founding years of the People's Republic of China and was named Ding Xiangbo. However, he had no heirs, so he adopted a stepson named Guo Chong from a side branch and asked him to be named the crown prince.
But do you know what happened next?
Guo Deng was not dead yet. He just led the troops and was away from home. He left his family to Guo Chong to take care of him. Guo Chong left them with no food and clothing. Guo Deng's concubines even had to work as embroidery workers to support themselves. They almost died.
.
When Guo Deng came back and found out about this, he felt that Guo Chong was ungrateful and planned to depose him. However, Guo Chong had already married the Marquis of Huichang and had a solid foundation. To depose him, he would not only report the truth to his superiors, but also request that he be deposed as the heir apparent.
Will have a bad relationship with the already engaged Marquis of Huichang.
In order not to publicize his family scandal and not to quarrel with the Marquis of Huichang, Guo Deng could only endure it and eventually died in depression.
It is said that he was only seriously ill for one day.
He passed away before the imperial doctor arrived."
"This is the personal experience of my ancestor's friend. My ancestor even has a poem written by him, lamenting that he had no children and mistakenly adopted a cruel and ungrateful person as a filial son. In addition to various folk situations of adopting step-sons, there are also
It's very common, and even the inspector mentioned it a few years ago.
I even roughly remember the content.
The main content of Shuzhang is that after investigation, he found that many elderly people without children live with their adopted sons or daughters and sons-in-law. Most of the adopted sons and sons-in-law are quite filial and are raised like their own children.
However, people from the same clan who have the right to inherit often covet the family property of the childless old man and use various examples to deceive the old man, saying that a son-in-law cannot be trusted to adopt a son, and that a step-son must be given to inherit the family property before the family can continue the legacy.
After they officially passed through the clan and the government and became the stepsons of the childless old man, their faces immediately changed.
Some went too far, and even relied on the power of their biological parents and brothers to prevent the childless old man from going out, cut off all social contacts with the childless old man, expel the adopted son-in-law of the childless old man from the house, deprive him of food and clothing, and sell off his land.
There are also some brothers of the childless old man who serve as relatives and are glad that they have no children. They often evict the old man after his death, and even pawn off his wife and daughter's land and annex the property.
The law does not punish this very much.
Most matters are handled within the clan itself.
At that time, Governor Li requested to amend the law, hoping that the adopted son and son-in-law would be eligible to inherit the family property while taking care of their old age. If parents accuse their descendants of being unfilial, they cannot be punished because they are their own children. The stepson will not be punished, and the stepson has no rights.
Pawn and sell stepfather, wife, daughter, etc.
It's a pity that no one in the court cares.
Some people even denounced it as nonsense and alarmist talk.
In the end we had to let it go."
"I really don't dare to bet. People's hearts are unpredictable and changeable. I don't have a stepson. If Yu'er really encounters something in the future, there may be some classmates or scholars in the same field who think of the friendship between classmates and are willing to help.
.
But if there is a stepson, even my good friends cannot go beyond the stepson to do anything for Yu'er."
At this time, the stepson has great power and is no different from the biological son. He even has some advantages over the biological son in some aspects. For example, if he is not filial, the world's requirements for the biological son will be much more stringent than that of the stepson. Unfilial son is a sin.
He deserves to die. If the step-son is unfilial, he will at most mutter a few words about whether he is not his biological son or something.
If the stepson you recognize is not a kind person.
That's really better than nothing.
After hearing this, Jia Min was stunned for a long time, and then her eyes turned red and tears flowed uncontrollably. The impact and consequences of not having a son were much greater than she imagined.
The future is really hopeless and gloomy.
Although Lin Ruhai's words are cruel and straightforward, they are the truth. The times are like this, what can we do in vain?
After that, Jia Min and Lin Ruhai did not continue to discuss this issue in depth, because they knew that no matter how much they thought, it would only increase their worries and be of little use.
It is better to maintain good health and live longer.
It would be best to see the daughter get married and have children, then her status will be considered stable and she will not need to rely on her mother's family for support.
When they both fell asleep, they entered a deep sleep.
Only then did Qu Jie officially reveal himself, and using his mental power, he began to carefully examine their bodies.
I want to see if they both have physical problems.
Or is there something else going on?
It will be easier to prescribe the right medicine then!
Adoption is different from adopted children. The relationship between adopted children is the shallowest, followed by adopted children, and then adoptive children. Generally speaking, adopted children have the same inheritance rights as parent children.
