After The Divorce, I Became the Favorite of the Powerful Ministers - Chapter 677
Chapter 677 His heart can be punished
Old Mrs. Xiao was stunned.
“Then why is the second child frowning all day long? He is also very short-tempered and gets angry at every turn.”
Therefore, they are also worried recently.
Shi Qingluo gave her a reassuring look, “He is frowning and irritable, so it’s definitely not because of the title and returning to Nanxi County.”
Old lady Xiao asked inexplicably, “Why? I thought he was unhappy because he was going back to Nanxi County.”
They also don’t want to go back to Nanxi County.
She already knew that Kong was going to the capital to marry King Yi. Although she scolded him a lot in private, she felt that Kong was not abiding by women, but she couldn’t stop her, and she envied her bitterly.
They also knew that the Xiao Hanzheng brothers and sisters were going to follow Kong’s success.
The second child told them before that he didn’t want them to go to Nanxi County to endure hardship, and let them stay in Beicheng, and then depend on Xiao Hanzheng to live.
What’s the point of going back to Nanxi County? Of course, it’s more fun to follow the prefect of the county.
Dalang and a few others might be able to follow Xiao Hanzheng into any position. I didn’t see that Xi Rui, a slut, had become a dean.
So they thought that they should stay in Beicheng.
When Shi Qingluo saw the expressions on the old lady’s face, she could guess what they were thinking.
She smiled and said, “Of course not.”
“I think Baron Xiao is suffering right now. His legs are crippled, and he was poisoned by Ge Chun. He can no longer have children. Now his only daughter, he will not be able to inherit the title in the future. He must be worried!”
She was talking about Tao Liusheng’s daughter. After all, Bai Li and Scum Daddy had already broken up, not counting each other’s daughter.
Only a special case of Xi Rong is a woman in Daliang, and Xiao Yuanshi’s daughter naturally cannot have such an honor.
The old lady also felt that it made sense, “That’s right, the second child must be very bitter.”
Being hurt by that **** Ge Chunru like this, it would be uncomfortable for anyone else.
The key is that without a son, this title will be wasted in the future.
The old lady said painfully: “Then isn’t this title passed down to his generation and it’s over?”
Shi Qingluo nodded, “If he has no children in the future, it must be this generation.”
Then the conversation changed, “But if he adopts a son and goes on the genealogy and is recognized by the family, the title can still be passed on to the adopted son.”
“I just don’t know if Baron Xiao will be adopted in the future.”
“If you don’t continue, you will waste a title.”
The speaker has a heart, and the listener also has a heart.
The old lady rolled her eyes, “Is this an adoptive one too?”
Shi Qing nodded, “Of course, it’s okay, the son of Baron Xiao is the son of Baron Xiao who is adopted on the family tree, and he legally inherits the title.”
“This is a title, which is more prestige than being a magistrate.”
“Although we are returning to Nanxi County, not only the magistrate must bow, but the prefect must give three points of courtesy.”
Then he talked about how good the title is, it is better than being a petty official without taking the imperial examination route.
Wang and Wu couldn’t help but get excited in their hearts.
Don’t say it really makes sense, let alone their sons are admitted to the jinshi examination, even the scholar can’t pass the examination.
So getting an eight-pin county magistrate is fine, but a seven-pin county magistrate is difficult, let alone going up.
In the future, if he were to become a prince, he would not be more powerful than being a county magistrate. His status was high enough that the whole family would follow.
Both of them have their minds, Xiao Yuanshi can’t have a son anyway, how good it is to adopt their son, a nephew is no better than a wild child outside.
The old lady also thinks this is good, her big man is unable to use it because he has the ability.
But if he becomes a nobleman, his status will also rise in the future. Anyway, the second child will not be able to give birth to a son. What a good adoptive nephew.
The old lady was very moved, but she was still a little shy, “But isn’t it a bit shameful to go back to Nanxi County? Why isn’t it in the capital?”
Shi Qingluo said: “How can I be ashamed of going to Nanxi County? Isn’t this a matter of Guangyao’s lintel?”
“Not to mention Nanxi County, or even the entire Nanguangfu City, no one has been knighted.”
“At the beginning, everyone knew that you sold your house and farmland and went to Beijing to join General Xiao, but they wouldn’t know if you were doing well now.”
“I heard that there are people gossiping, saying that your life must be difficult, and you will regret selling your house and land.”
“When I got the title and went back this time, those people were absolutely shocked, and then they all envied the old lady that you gave birth to a good son.”
“There are a lot of people with high status in Beicheng, and you won’t be conspicuous when you go out.”
“And I don’t know many people, so they won’t take the initiative to praise or envy.”
“But if you go back to your own territory in Nanxi County, this is a title, and it sounds amazing. Wherever you go, won’t everyone praise you?”
“This kind of happy event, of course, has to be shared with the clan, relatives and friends.”
“Besides, it is an honor to be so proud, and there will never be a shame.”
She caught the vanity that the old Xiao family and others liked to show off, so she guided them.
Sure enough, Mrs. Xiao’s breathing became a little heavier.
When their family left the village, there were indeed people waiting to see their jokes.
If she has a title and goes back, those old women who didn’t deal with her in the past must not envy and die of soreness.
She is the baron’s mother and the old lady of the Xiao family, but she is not the same as those ignorant village women.
They really don’t know many people in Beicheng, and they have to hold it when they see the powerful family.
Mainly because they knew in their hearts that even if they depended on Xiao Hanzheng, that cruel and cold-hearted grandson would not necessarily take care of them and benefit them.
But going back to Nanxi County will be different. They have returned home, so proud.
And the old lady is also getting old. Nanxi County is her hometown. Her family, relatives and friends are there. She still misses it.
Some time ago, the old man was still talking about wanting to go back and have a look, after all, that is their roots.
Shi Qingluo saw that the old lady was loose, and immediately said: “If you don’t want to go back, let Dalang and the others find a job in Beicheng, and they can support you.”
“It’s just that Baron Xiao returned to Nanxi County. If you adopt a son, old lady, you have an extra grandson, and it will be too difficult to meet at such a long distance in the future.”
“And by that time, all the wealth in the Baron’s Mansion will also belong to your grandson.”
The old lady was okay when she heard this, “We originally came out to find the second child. Where does he go, of course we have to go with him.”
Yes, if you don’t follow him to Nanxi County, and the second child will adopt a son by himself, then her eldest son will not be able to assume the title.
This is not possible.
Mrs Wang and Mrs Wu were also anxious, “Yeah, we’ve been out for so long, it’s time to go back and have a look.”
It’s not just about the successor. If the second son’s black heart goes back, he will definitely take all his family’s wealth with him, and it is impossible to leave it to them.
They are used to living a good life now, how can they endure hardship.
No, you must go to Nanxi County, but you can’t let the wild species outside take advantage.
The old lady couldn’t sit still, “Qingluo, we have to go back beforehand, let’s talk another day.”
She has to go back quickly and talk to the old man, she must go back with the second child.
The beast, the second child, encouraged them to stay with Xiao Hanzheng before, and they almost fell for it.
The reason is that he wants to take his family wealth and go back to Nanxi County to follow a wild breed to inherit the title.
Now think about it carefully, how can a grandson who is divorced have a reliable son.
The second child has a heart that can be punished. Fortunately, she was awakened by Shi Qingluo when she met today.
So many family wealth and titles can only belong to their old Xiao family.
It’s too much to write, I didn’t expect to finish it now, I will try to finish it as soon as possible tomorrow~~ Thank you for tipping and voting dear~
