Chapter 507: A loyal minister and a filial son always want to do some fancy things
Dong Min was very good at talking and brought some homemade meals for Dong’s mother to eat.
The old woman was coaxed until her face was filled with smiles.
Mother and son were talking.
As they talked, under Dong Min's conscious guidance, the topic returned to the past, and he began to miss the past days.
Among the topics the two talked about were Dong Min's father who died early, his brother who died early, and Dong Zhuo's son who died early.
When people get old, what they like most is to recall the past and chatter about the past with their children and grandchildren.
Even if I have said these things many times, I will never get tired of them or say them enough.
The old woman was chattering here, and Dong Min was accompanying her.
But it’s more about listening.
After talking like this for a while, the old lady couldn't help but shed tears.
She said that her husband, eldest son and grandchildren had a hard life and died early.
I haven't seen the good days like today.
If I could see the good days now, I would definitely smile.
After talking like this for a while, the old woman began to blame herself again.
It's all my fault, I've lived too long and am too old.
He absorbed the blessings and longevity of his children and grandchildren.
Let your husband, children and grandchildren shorten their lives.
Hearing what his mother said, Dong Min quickly spoke out to comfort his mother, saying that children and grandchildren will have their own blessings.
That's because they are not blessed enough to blame their mother or anything like that.
Dong Min persuaded the old woman for a long time before finally persuading her.
After persuading the old woman, Dong Min shed tears.
"My son, why are you crying? But what kind of injustice have you suffered? Or is it that the money in your hand is not enough?
Your second brother gave me a lot of money and cloth, but I can't even spend it in my hands.
Your second brother can make money now, but he can't afford this.
If you are in trouble, I will give you some..."
Dong's mother panicked when she saw her son crying.
Saying such comforting questions is just like how my son did when he was a child.
Dong Min shook his head and sobbed: "Mom, my child is so old, how can I ask you for money?
The second brother led the Dong family, and they were prosperous. The child followed the second brother, and there was no shortage of money in his hands..."
"Then what kind of bullying did you suffer?"
The old woman asked again.
Dong Min said: "Second brother is now the Grand Master of the Han Dynasty, with all the power in the world, and my son is also a general of the left. No one has the courage to inflict this on me..."
Hearing Dong Min say this, Dong's mother seemed a little confused.
You don’t have to worry about food and clothing, you have money to spend, and you haven’t suffered any injustice. Why do you start crying?
Dong Min shed tears for a while and said: "My child thought of my Dong family, Ding Buwang, and couldn't help but feel sad for a while.
My mother gave birth to three brothers, but only one of them had any children.
The eldest brother passed away early.
The second brother's son passed away early.
Although there are daughters and granddaughters left behind, they have all grown up and married, and are no longer members of my Dong family...
My Dong family has a great business and should have been prosperous, but now..."
Hearing what Dong Min said, the old woman couldn't help but feel sad.
When people get old, the most favorite thing to see is a family full of children and grandchildren.
"You two brothers, bring in some more concubines.
Have more children.
We are not short of food and clothing now, and if we bring in more concubines, we can afford them..."
Dong Min, who was crying there, couldn't help but feel stunned when he heard his mother's words.
What situation is this?
How come this is completely different from what I thought!
Why are my mother's reactions and thoughts so strange?
For the sake of what he has said, shouldn't his mother allow him to adopt a son to his elder brother and give him a son to support him in his old age?
Why did he say this right away and actually ask his two brothers to have more concubines and have more children?
"Auntie, my brother and my son are getting older. They are no longer young people, and their hair is starting to turn gray.
At this time, how can you take concubines on a large scale without making people laugh?
Moreover, my brother has taken many concubines over the years, and as a result, he has no heirs..."
Dong Min wiped his tears and said this.
The old woman said: "It is right to have more concubines. Who knows when I will be able to get pregnant?"
Dong Min talked with his mother for a while and found that his mother had never thought of having a step-heir.
He immediately stopped hesitating and said, "Auntie, this is too slow.
Not to mention that my brother has had no concubines and no heirs over the years.
Even if you take a concubine at this time and you are really pregnant, how many years will it take until you give birth and grow up?
We brothers, I'm afraid we can't afford to wait..."
Hearing this, the old woman sighed and nodded, expressing her agreement with her son's words.
Dong Min said: "The child has three sons. I think so, why not give up two sons and adopt them out.
One is adopted in the name of the eldest brother, the other is adopted in the name of the second brother, and the other child is kept for him to provide for himself until he is old.
In this case, we three brothers, after a hundred years, we will all have heirs who will provide us with blood and food, and we will have successors.
The incense between the three brothers will not be cut off..."
Dong Min had been laying the groundwork for a long time, and now he finally showed his fangs.
revealed his true purpose.
This is what he thought of.
At this time, he had already seen that his brother seemed to intend to give the Dong family's inheritance to that thief named Liu Cheng.
And my brother has always been stronger.
He was worried that even if he could convince his mother to speak for him and put pressure on his brother later, his brother would not agree.
It will mess up things and make them look ugly.
So after thinking about it, I came up with this compromise method.
A method full of warmth and affection.
That would mean that he would suffer a big loss and adopt his two sons directly.
To the eldest brother and second brother respectively.
In this way, you can appear not to be deliberate and show your sincerity.
Since then, covered by things like family affection, filial piety, and the like, some things have become less obvious and less dazzling.
After adopting his son to his elder brother, needless to say, everything else became logical.
Under such circumstances, the adopted son is truly adopted as his biological son.
He also has the right of inheritance.
My second brother has an heir to the Dong family, so naturally, there is no reason to let a person with a foreign surname inherit the Dong family's foundation!
Liu Cheng, the thief with bad intentions, can only want to eat shit!
After all, this guy just has a foreign surname and is just a lackey of their Dong family!
Sure enough, when Dong Min spoke and the old woman understood what he meant, she couldn't help but smile.
"You are really thoughtful. You are thinking about the Dong family and your brothers."
