Remarry the Farmer

As the dawn dawned, Wang Xiushu was invited by the old lady to go to Heming Hall. In front of the hall sat the old master Ruan Zhanlin and the old wife Qin. The old Houye left the housework to the old lady, and everything in the mansion was taken care of by the old lady except for major events. Now that Ruan Zhan appeared in front of the lobby, something important must have happened in the mansion.

Ruan Juan was beating a drum in his heart. He had received news of Ruan Tianqi's return from a victory yesterday. Because of his military exploits, Ruan Tianqi's reward is an ironclad matter. He wondered if Ruan Zhanlin gathered the whole family together to pass on the position of the son to Ruan Tianqi?

Ruan Juan is not the only one who has the same idea, but Ruan Tianming and Xiaoliu are also thinking in their hearts.

Wang Xiushu slowly entered the Heming Hall, and when he saw Wang Xiushu coming, there was a smile on the serious face of the old man: "Xiushu, come here."

Wang Xiushu stepped forward to greet the two elders. Old Hou Ye smiled and said, "Presumably you also got the news that Tian Qi has returned from a great victory."

Wang Xiushu nodded, and Ruan Zhanlin laughed heartily: "Unexpectedly, Pingnan Hou Mansion can still contribute to the court. Tian Qi has won glory for Pingnan Hou Mansion!"

"Father, what are you talking about? I have always served the court in Pingnan Hou Mansion." Ruan Juan was naturally dissatisfied with Ruan Zhanlin's remarks. He always felt that Ruan Zhanlin was already confused. He always felt that Pingnan Hou Mansion was in decline. The prestige of the Hou Mansion still exists, and it is respected by the emperor and loved by the people. "Ruan Tianqi is also a member of the Pingnan Hou Mansion. It is natural to serve the court. How can he win glory?"

"It's better than you, who only knows how to care for you!" Ruan Zhanlin snorted coldly. Ruan Juan knew that he was boring and turned to the subject: "Why did my father call us here?"

"When Tian Qi returns, you will write a memorial to make Tian Qi the eldest son of Pingnan Houfu." Old Houye paused. After he said this, everyone in the palace and Wang Xiushu were shocked, and Ruan Juan was so surprised that his eyes almost fell out. Is this old man confused? Actually, he really wanted to give the position of the son to an outsider.

"Father, are you kidding me?" Ruan Juan asked, "Ruan Tianqi has never regarded our Pingnan Hou Mansion as a family, and he has never respected my father and let him become the eldest son of Pingnan Hou Mansion. I hope my father can take this back."

"Grandfather, Ruan Tianqi has never seen Pingnan Hou Mansion in his eyes. He has no feelings for Pingnan Hou Mansion, and he hopes his grandfather will think twice." Ruan Tianming also stood up and opposed. He was hungry and thirsty for the position of the eldest son, how could he let this one fall into Ruan Tianqi's hands.

Although Ruan Biyao has nothing to do with this matter, he can't help but whisper in his heart. Ruan Tianqi is just a villager in the village. If he becomes the eldest son of Pingnan Hou Mansion, he will surely make outsiders laugh.

The Xiaoliu clan was even more nervous. Compared to others, she saw it more clearly. Ruan Zhanlin recalled Ruan Tianqi but only wanted to inspire the lazy and inactive people in the mansion. And now Ruan Zhanlin is directly giving Ruan Tianqi the position of the eldest son, does this mean that Lord Hou has been extremely disappointed with the young master in the mansion.

The Xiaoliu clan regrets a bit, and he shouldn't have overthrown the Liu clan early. If the Liu clan's prosperous age survives, the old man would naturally not be so sure to pass the throne.

Seeing Xiao Jiujiu in the hearts of everyone in the mansion, they were silent. Ruan Zhan's face sank, and he said cruelly: "The blood that Ruan Zhan shed is the blood of Pingnan Hou Mansion. How can he not be the son of Pingnan Hou Mansion?"

"I don't agree!" Ruan Juan knows that if he continues to be committed, he might really fall into the hands of Ruan Tianqi. This is exactly what he doesn't want to see. He has never regarded Ruan Tianqi as his own son. Like a stranger. He disliked this son who didn't put him in his eyes.

If the position of the elder son was handed over to Ruan Tianqi, Ruan Juan would not dare to think about his status in the Hou Mansion. Although Ruan Tianming is not reliable, he is in his control anyway. If Ruan Tianqi was in the position, naturally he would not obey him obediently.

"As long as I'm the Hou Ye of Pingnan Hou Mansion, I won't pass on the position of Pingnan Hou Mansion's son to an outsider!" Ruan Juan said that Ruan Tianming and Xiaoliu were relieved. Although the fame of Lao Hou Ye is still there, the Lord Hou of Pingnan Hou Mansion is Ruan Ju'an. If he hadn't personally written the memorial and asked the emperor to grant him the seal, the emperor would not personally seal it. This is an ironclad rule.

"Confused!" Old Hou master slapped the desktop with anger, and everyone's heart shook with the desktop, "Which way are you going to defeat Pingnan Hou Mansion? You are willing! Also, Tianqi is not an outsider! It's yours. Son! You and Zhao’s biological son!"

Everyone was slightly surprised when they heard the word "Zhao's". The word "Zhao's" seemed to be a taboo word in the house. Wang Xiushu looked particularly carefully. When he heard the word "Zhao", not only Ruan Juan's expression was startled, but the old lady's expression also sank slightly.

Could it be that Zhao Yumin's death has another secret?

Wang Xiushu thought secretly.

"War is coming," the old lady said softly, "Ju'an is still young, so you don't need to be so eager to establish a son. Isn't this what you have always advocated?" Ruan Zhanlin's sudden desire to establish Ruan Tianqi as a son was really surprised by the old lady. Ruan Zhanlin had not negotiated with her beforehand.

The old lady has her own opinions. Although Ruan Juan has a different vision of Ruan Zhanlin, he is right about one thing. Ruan Tianqi has no sense of belonging to the Pingnan Hou Mansion. The second is Wang Xiushu. In the past few months, Wang Xiushu has made the old lady look at her with admiration. Wang Xiushu's work is too perfect. It is precisely because of this perfection that the old lady feels that she cannot handle Wang Xiushu well. This Wang Xiushu's affairs are calm and unpredictable.

Ruan Zhan had a pause before coughing twice. Ruan Zhanlin was indeed anxious. But he has watched Ruan Tianqi return to the mansion for several months, but these pampered young masters in the family still don’t have the slightest sense of crisis, and live their own little life leisurely. Except for occasional troubles, Ruan Tianqi and his wife have nothing to do. .

On the other hand, Ruan Tianqi, since he entered the Xijing camp, he worked calmly and made his name in the Xijing camp. Rather than handing the Pingnan Hou Mansion to Ruan Tianming and others to let the Hou Mansion decline, it is better to hand it over to Ruan Tianqi to reinvigorate the Hou Mansion.

"Old Houye," Wang Xiushu was a little tired after watching the whole scene. "The old lady said that his father is in his prime of life, and it is not appropriate to decide this son of the world now. Moreover, Tianqi will not be back to Beijing for a long time. I'm afraid I can't take care of the Hou Mansion well, so please think twice before you act."

Wang Xiushu naturally didn't want Ruan Tianqi to stay in this mansion and become the prince. This Hou Mansion was sinister and cunning, and her husband and wife were even more thorns in the eyes of everyone in the Hou Mansion. How could Wang Xiushu let her and Ruan Tianqi fall into this deep water.
