Daughter's Portable Space

Chapter 518
"Ruier..."

"I have calmed down my mother for the time being, but my mother said that she will have to see Miss Lan before she can make a decision." Out of the courtyard of the old lady of the Qin family, Qin Shaotian was waiting outside the courtyard.It's also fortunate that she didn't talk to the old lady of the Qin family for too long, otherwise, in this cold winter, there would be something wrong with the cold? "You really are, in such a cold day, even if you are angry, you should go to the side hall to rest for a while."

Qin Shaotian's face was a little bright, but he was a little anxious just now.At this moment, after staying in the cold wind for a while, her mind cleared up a bit: "Sorry, Rui'er, I've been in a bad mood for the past few days, and my tone was a bit off just now."

"I'm fine, I'm just afraid that mother will come back and settle accounts with you." Luo Yunrui didn't bother to ask the maid to prepare a soft sedan chair, anyway, the Qin family is not big, so it wouldn't take much effort to walk there.The two cuddled and walked back to the yard. Along the way, Qin Shaotian also briefly told some things about his study in the capital.It is true that the Qin family has never treated Qin Shaotian badly in terms of money, but a young child studying in a strange place thousands of miles away needs more than just money.

In the past ten or so years, although the population of the Lan family was not prosperous, it was not so low.Qin Shaotian first met Master Lan's grandfather, who had taught Qin Shaotian two years of studies.It is precisely because of this that Qin Shaocai was able to get acquainted with Master Lan. After all, the two are not of average size, and they were not classmates at first.

However, since getting acquainted with the Lan family, Qin Shaotian has often visited the Lan family.It's just that the Lan family's fortunes have been bad all these years, let alone the official career, it's just that this person has lost...

"Brother Lan's grandfather passed away peacefully at the end of his life, but Brother Lan's parents and elder brother's family all died of illness." While speaking, the two returned to their yard, and the warm dragon in the room was always It was burning, and ordered the maid to make a pot of good tea, and the two continued to talk about things in the outer hall.

Generally speaking, the current situation of the Lan family is extremely bad. No matter how good the original family background is, if the family members are not prosperous, there is nothing they can do.Miss Lan's only real relatives are her father, who is now seriously ill and may die at any time, and the only distant relatives are her uncle, who has never been married and has been in the border for decades without returning to Beijing.

This is more pleasant to say, Miss Lan is a pitiful child.

But if it sounds harsh, the child's life is really hard.

Luo Yunrui doesn't care about numerology, but she is very concerned about Miss Lan's physical condition: "Shaotian, do you think that most people in the Lan family died of illness?"

"That's right, it's all the same. Of course, it's not a serious illness. It was just some minor ailments at first, and it may have dragged on for a long time, so I couldn't get over it." Seeing Luo Yunrui's obviously disbelieving expression, Qin Shaotian could only smile wryly One voice: "People from the Lan family... are generally in poor health."

"Why is that?"

"I don't know medicine, but the Lan family is not short of money. It is said that it should be a weak disease brought about by the mother's womb, which came from Brother Lan's great-grandmother." After hesitating for a while, Qin Shaotian himself felt that this matter was a bit Unreasonable: "Actually... I think Miss Lan's body is not bad."

Luo Yunrui bowed her head and said nothing, if the Lan family was originally from a general, then naturally her body would be excellent.But since Master Lan's grandfather chose to abandon martial arts and follow literature, from this point of view, Master Lan's grandfather may have some shortcomings.

Sighing slightly, Luo Yunrui wasn't sure she could convince Qin Shaotian, but she still had to ask, "What was the life expectancy of Master Lan's grandfather when he passed away? What was the life expectancy of his father and elder brother? What about himself?"

"Brother Lan's grandfather passed away at the age of sixty-two. Brother Lan's father just passed his fiftieth birthday a year before his death, and Brother Lan's elder brother passed away at the age of 29. As for Brother Lan himself , two years older than me." Qin Shaotian frowned, and suddenly understood the meaning of Luo Yunrui's words: "Rui'er thinks that the Lan family is congenitally deficient, and the body will get worse as you get older?"

Luo Yunrui nodded, then asked again: "This Lan family's health is not good, so what about their wives?"

"I've seen Brother Lan's grandmother. She passed away when we were in Luzhou City two years ago, and she lived a long time. I've never seen Brother Lan's mother. It seems that she died when she was very young. It's gone. As for his elder brother... I'm not familiar with his elder brother, but I just vaguely know that his elder brother has been seriously ill in bed since he was ten years old."

That is definitely a congenital deficiency.

"Shaotian, I'm sorry, I don't agree with this marriage either."

It's not that Luo Yunrui hasn't thought about using the method taught to her by the old lady of the Qin family, but she really can't bear to hurt a young and innocent child.She would not feel guilty about refusing a marriage, after all, as a mother, she had the right to choose and refuse.But if you agree verbally first, and then find a way to withdraw from the marriage later... it's better not to agree from the beginning!
Seeing that Qin Shaotian was just looking at him without getting angry, Luo Yunrui breathed a sigh of relief.If it is not necessary, she does not want to argue with Qin Shaotian, but for Brother Jie's lifelong happiness, she has no choice but to retort: ​​"Shaotian, I am willing to take care of Miss Lan as my own daughter. She is still young at this age. Little, according to what you said, the Lan family is well-established, and Ms. Lan's upbringing must not be bad. As for her marriage with Brother Jie, I think at least now I can settle it, after all, Brother Jie It is my own, and I have to think about his future."

Although this dynasty is much more enlightened than the previous dynasty regarding the remarriage of widowers or widows, it has to be admitted that no matter whether it is remarriage or remarriage, it is impossible to be better than before.Like the old man of the Luo family, his first wife is a daughter of a family, but his second wife is a merchant girl.

Not only Luo Yunrui understands these principles, but Qin Shaotian also understands them.It turned out that when he was in Lan's house, seeing his friend who had been with him for many years was seriously ill until his last breath, but he still missed his young daughter, it was impossible for him not to be touched.Fortunately, even so, he didn't make a guarantee in front of Master Lan. At that time, he thought that if he could go to Lan's house with Luo Yunrui, it would be more sincere to give the guarantee in front of Master Lan. Missed it.

"Shaotian, Brother Jie is still a child. Is it really okay for you to make decisions for his life like this? Almost everyone in the Lan family has a short life. If Miss Lan marries Brother Jie in the future, and Brother Jie After she also fell in love with her, Miss Lan suddenly... Or, Miss Lan was lucky enough to leave behind a son and a half daughter, so what about the future? I hope my sons can find a wife who will be with them for life, not because of love hurt."

Qin Shaotian opened his mouth, wanted to say something but didn't know how to say it, so he could only drink tea with his head down.

"Otherwise, it's fine. Take Miss Lan to take care of her at home first. If she is in good health and will be happy with Brother Jie in the future, then I will agree to this marriage, and I will do the same on my mother's side." convinced her."

What Miss Lan lacked was not just a good body, but her entire natal family.Even if Jie Geer doesn't plan to rely on the Yue family in the future, it's one thing to rely on it or not, but it's another thing to not rely on it at all.

"Rui'er, I didn't think about this matter." Sighing deeply, Qin Shaotian also understood that Luo Yunrui had already made a big concession by saying that.If it is the old lady of the Qin family, no matter what kind of person Miss Lan is or how strong she is, this marriage is absolutely impossible.Not only does it sound bad to say that there is no natal family, but it is even considered a hard-fated person. More importantly, although the Lan family is sparsely populated, it has a lot of property.If Brother Jie really marries Miss Lan in the future, he might be called a fortune teller!

"Then how about I go to Lan's house with Shaotian and you tomorrow?"

Qin Shaotian couldn't refuse this proposal, besides, he had originally planned to do so, but now that the matter of engagement cannot be decided, another argument is needed.

The two discussed for a while, and finally decided to adopt Miss Lan as an adopted daughter.Of course, this adopted daughter does not need to be included in the genealogy, it is just a title.In the future, after Miss Lan enters the Qin family, she will not stay as a guest, but as a daughter, and calling Qin Shaotian and Luo Yunrui parents, not aunts.In this way, Master Lan can leave with peace of mind to the greatest extent.

In the evening, Luo Yunrui told the old lady of the Qin family the result of their discussion. Perhaps because she was stimulated at noon, the old lady of the Qin family didn't have any objection to the idea of ​​adopting a daughter.In fact, as long as Brother Jie and Miss Lan are not engaged immediately, the old lady of the Qin family will not object to other matters.Early the next morning, Luo Yunrui went to Lan's house with Qin Shaotian, and met the seriously ill Master Lan and the young Miss Lan.

Master Lan seemed to be really holding his breath and waiting for Qin Shaotian, and he didn't feel any dissatisfaction when he heard what the two said. In fact, Master Lan never planned to marry the Qin family at all.It's not because of looking down on the Qin family, but because of people's hearts.

For the daughter of a good friend, and with such a background, ordinary people are mostly sympathetic. If she can be raised in the Qin family in the name of her daughter, with Qin Shaotian's temperament and the original money of the Lan family, in the future, his own My daughter won't have a bad time either.But as a future daughter-in-law...

Daughters are meant to be loved, even if they are a little arrogant and ignorant, they will be regarded as innocent and cute.

The daughter-in-law is used to pass on the family line to take over as the housekeeper. Even if it is a small defect, I am afraid that it will be picked on by the husband's family.

"Shaotian, my Lan family has no other relatives or friends. I only think of you as my own younger brother. I don't ask for anything else. I just hope that my Lan'er will live a happy life. As for the future, if possible, help her Pick a merchant's house, with you as an adoptive father and three older brothers, Lan'er will not suffer."
