Chapter 83 Can I also adopt Zhilan to the long room?
"Adoption?" Gu Xiang was startled, then became happy again.
If she adopts her elder brother, her status will naturally be different.
How a woman lives in her husband's family often depends on the support of her natal family. If her natal family is powerful, her father-in-law and mother-in-law will both give her some respect.
She was feeling uneasy just now. The family was separated just after she returned home. In the future, her natal family will no longer be the Changning Marquis Mansion, and her father is still ineffective. How should she establish herself in the Wu'an Marquis Mansion?
One can imagine the attitude of her mother-in-law after learning about this matter.
But if she is adopted, her father is Marquis Chang Ning, and she is the eldest daughter of the eldest son. Even though she is not as good as Bu Gu You, the eldest daughter, she is much better than before.
Jiang nodded and asked her, "Are you willing?"
Gu Xiang forced himself to calm down: "If the elders agree, A Xiang will naturally have no objection, but if I adopt the eldest brother, what about Ke Zhilan?"
"I wonder, grandma, if you can adopt Zhilan into the eldest house as well?"
As soon as Gu Xiang said these words, the place fell silent.
Xie Yixiao was also shocked. Did Gu Xiang have a trance? How could he say such stupid things?
I have a son in my family!
Before Jiang could speak, Mr. Gu disagreed: "Axiang, what are you talking about? Your brother is my biological son and my legitimate son. You actually want to adopt him to the elder brother's house. You think I'm dead."
It’s better to treat your uncle as having no son and ask him to come over!”
"Second brother!" Marquis Changning's face turned cold, "Be careful what you say."
Seeing that Jiang's face was not so good, Mr. Gu explained again: "Mother, it's me who is talking nonsense. I'm not angry, but I'm not cursing Zhixuan and Zhifeng."
Mr. Jiang snorted coldly.
Gu Erye said: "I agreed to adopt Axiang, and it will be beneficial to her future, but Zhilan is absolutely impossible. His father is not dead, how can he be allowed to call someone else his father."
"This is absolutely impossible."
Gu Xiang was a girl, and she was already married, so if she adopted her, it would be nothing, so Mrs. Sun cried, and Mr. Gu agreed.
But Mr. Gu absolutely disagreed with the adoption of Gu Zhilan.
Where has anyone adopted their son to someone else?
If this was spread, others would laugh him to death.
Second Master Gu disagreed, and neither did the Jiang family nor the Marquis Changning. Marquis Changning didn't have any sons, he had two, so there was no need to adopt another son.
To put it more realistically, in the future, the Changning Marquis family business will belong to these two brothers, and there is no room for others to get a share of the pie.
As a girl in Gu Xiang, even if she is not married, she can just put a dowry on her and marry her off. In the future, all she needs to do is to follow all the etiquette. In other words, if she has a good name, there is no loss.
Moreover, she is already married and has been given a dowry.
But for an adopted son, the family property will be divided among others.
Are you kidding?!
Jiang stared at Gu Xiang and said with a cold face: "Axiang, we have discussed the matter of your adoption into the eldest house. If you are willing, the matter will be done today. If you are not willing, then just treat me as
Didn't say that."
"As for Zhilan, don't mention it again."
This means I don't agree with it either.
Gu Xiang's face changed slightly.
In fact, she didn't think too much about it. Between the eldest room and the second room, she naturally knew which one was better.
The eldest son has a title, his father is promising, and his brother is also promising. If Gu Zhilan is the son of the eldest son, he will have a better environment, and he will also have the support of his brother in the future. It can be said that his future is bright.
Even if he has no future, he now has a Marquis father and a Marquis brother in the future, so he can live a life of wealth and honor like Mr. Gu.
The second bedroom is a quagmire. If you can have a good future here, you may be delayed, and you will be bullied by Gu Zhisong.
She had never thought about this before, but when Jiang said that she could adopt the eldest family, her thoughts became active. If Zhilan adopted the eldest family, wouldn't she be able to get out of this quagmire?
But I didn't expect that Mr. Gu's reaction would be so big, and the others seemed to disagree.
Gu Xiang bit his lip, trying to persuade him: "Grandma, is it really impossible? Zhilan..."
"Axiang, what are you thinking about?" Gu Erye pointed at Gu Xiang and scolded, "Do you want others to scold me for giving my son to someone else? You are a rebellious girl! A rebellious girl! If you dare to say that again,
, look I won’t hit you!”
Mr. Gu can dote on his concubines and kill his wives, and he doesn't care what others say about him, whether they say he's romantic or that he doesn't follow the rules, but he is a man and will definitely allow his son to recognize someone else as his father.
The incense inheritance, the bloodline passed down from generation to generation, these are all his!
"Okay." Jiang said, "I'm too lazy to listen to the quarrel between you father and daughter. Axiang, you also know that this adoption is a good thing for both the Changning Marquis and the Wu'an Marquis, and even for you.
It’s not something you can use to negotiate terms.”
"If you don't want to, just give up."
Mrs. Zhou also had some resentment in her heart. She could tolerate one more daughter, but she couldn't tolerate another son competing with Gu Zhixuan for the family property. Moreover, if he was adopted, he would be his legitimate son!
How much does this score?
Thinking of this, she almost vomited blood.
So she also said: "As my mother-in-law said, if you don't want to, just let it go and pretend we didn't mention it."
Gu Xiang's face turned a little pale. She probably knew that she had made a bad move and almost offended everyone present. If she continued to talk, she was afraid that her own adoption would not be settled.
Thinking of this, she had no choice but to take a step back and said: "It was Axiangshe who didn't know Lan before, so she became confused now. As for the adoption, Axiang is naturally willing to follow the wishes of her grandmother and elders."
Jiang nodded: "If that's the case, then let's do it."
So the Jiang family had people open an ancestral hall and led all their children and grandchildren to worship their ancestors. Then they informed their ancestors about the adoption, crossed out Gu Xiang's name from the second master Gu, and wrote it under the names of Marquis Changning and the Zhou family.
Then he asked Gu Xiang to change his name while serving tea and call him Marquis Changning and Zhou's father and mother.
After Zhou drank tea, she just asked someone to bring the prepared gifts to her. Her face was a little cold, without any smile or advice.
When she returned to her yard, she couldn't help it anymore: "It's really unreasonable. I opened a dyeing shop just to give her a little respect, and I also want to adopt Gu Zhilan into my name. It really makes me angry to death."
Oh! I’m so angry!”
"What do I think this is?"
"It's really going to piss me off!"
Zhou became very angry when she thought about it. If Gu Zhilan adopted her name and became the legitimate son of Marquis Changning, not only would he have a share of Marquis Changning's family property, but she would also have a share of her own private property over the years.
