"I'm not talking about today, I'm just reminding you that the Marquis doesn't like letting Brother Xiao see other people without his permission. The Marquis has been back for so long, and the relationship between the two of you has not eased. I This is for your sake. If you follow his wishes when doing things, he will naturally accept your favor."

Appreciate it?

Jiang Ruan Xi lowered her eyes to hide the sarcasm in her eyes. She had proved it in her previous life, even if she had to dig out her heart and soul, he would not accept her favor.

"What mother said is that I will pay attention to it in the future."

Seeing that she was so docile, Zhou felt relieved, but Lin Xiao's matter was a big deal, and she had to tell Lin Ningkun about it.

"I'm tired, you go down."

After finishing the matter, Mr. Zhou went straight to drive away the guests.

Jiang Ruanxi didn't care either.

After returning to the courtyard, Jiang Ruanxi told Hongye, "Immediately ask He Kui to go to East Street to find someone from Mrs. Li and secretly bring her to the second sister."

Although she didn't know what Jiang Ruan Xi was going to do, Hong Ye responded and went straight to do it.

Jiang Ruanxi looked at the plum tree that had just been planted in the yard, with a cold feeling in his heart.

Lin Ningkun, don’t you want your son to recognize his ancestor?

She just wouldn't let him get his wish. Not only would she ruin his career, but she would also make it impossible for Lin Xiao to return to the Lin family and recognize someone else as his ancestor.

**

Lin Qingxu returned to Zhenguohou Mansion, feeling uneasy all the time.

The girl next to her, Yu Ping, asked worriedly, "Madam, why are you feeling uncomfortable again?"

Lin Qingxu shook his head, "Yuping, have you seen that child today?"

Yuping nodded, "I saw it."

"Who do you think he looks like?"

Yuping bit her lip and said nothing, Lin Qingxu said directly, "Does it look like the Crown Princess?"

"Madam, you can't say this nonsense."

Yuping looked out the window subconsciously, fearing that others would overhear her at this juncture.

"This child does not look like the Crown Princess in many ways now, but you have also seen the Crown Princess's appearance in the years after she got married..."

Jiang Xuerou's face was injured, and there were originally a few scars. The Jiang family didn't know what method they used to heal her.

But the appearance has changed a bit.

Otherwise, Lin Xiao looks more like Jiang Xuerou.

"But Madam, Brother Xiao is the child brought back by the Marquis, how can he be related to the Crown Princess?" Yuping said puzzledly, "Moreover, even if they look very similar, Madam can tell, then the Lin family How come you can’t see it?”

Lin Qingxu's face was solemn, and a terrible thought suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Yuping, go and ask someone to check. What did the Crown Princess do during the few months she returned to her parents' home five years ago?"

**

A few days later, Lin Qingxu came to the door again.

"Mother, second brother, and second sister-in-law, I'm here to discuss something with you today."

Ms. Zhou smiled and said, "We are all a family. If you have any questions, just tell us directly."

"That's it, I want to adopt brother Xiao." Lin Qingxu directly stated his purpose.

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a clang, and the tea cup in Zhou's hand fell directly to the ground. Lin Ningkun's handsome and handsome face also looked a bit strange. Only Jiang Ruan Xi sat there, lowered his eyes and moved the lid of the tea cup. There is no emotion in his eyes.

"Second sister, do you know what you are talking about?"

Lin Ningkun's voice was mixed with a bit of disbelief, but Jiang Ruanxi could vaguely feel that there was a bit of restrained anger in it. If it weren't for the sake of face, he would have been furious at this time.

"Yes, why do you suddenly want to adopt Brother Jixiao?"

Mr. Zhou couldn't sit still anymore. You must know that Lin Xiao was his own grandson. What would it be like if he passed through the adoptive family?

Lin Qingxu thought they were thinking about themselves, fearing that others would gossip if they adopted her.

I was still very touched in my heart. My mother and brother thought about themselves. When they asked her to marry the old marquis of Zhenguo, they still had hatred for them, but now their hatred for them has subsided a lot.

"It's not to be adopted to me, but to be adopted in the name of the Crown Princess, this..."

"No. Brother Xiao can only stay in Dingninghou Mansion and is not allowed to go anywhere."

Lin Ningkun refused without thinking before Lin Qingxu finished speaking.

"Master Hou, don't be impulsive, the second sister hasn't finished speaking yet?" Jiang Ruanxi stood up and said.

"If I don't act impulsively, they will just take Brother Xiao away."

Jiang Ruanxi was silent.

Zhou frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.

Lin Qingxu frowned slightly, and his face became very serious.

"Second brother, if it's anything else, I won't force you to do anything, but this matter is related to the future of Zhen Guohou. I must take brother Xiao away."

"I won't do it if I say no. No one can take Brother Xiao away." Lin Ningkun looked at her coldly.

The whole body seemed to be coated with a layer of frost.

Lin Qingxu also lost his temper.

"Brother Xiao is the child of the eldest concubine of our Zhenguo Marquis Mansion, and is also a bloodline of our Zhenguo Marquis Mansion. It is natural for him to return to our Marquis Mansion now. You have no right to object."

Lin Qingxu didn't understand either. This matter was the best of both worlds for the Lin family, but why was he so excited or even opposed?

"Because Brother Xiao is..."

"Lin Ningkun, shut up."

When Lin Ningkun was about to blurt out, Mrs. Zhou scolded her loudly.

"Why are you so excited? If brother Xiao goes to Zhenguohou Mansion, he will have his own future. Even if you care about him, you still have to plan for your own future, right?"

These words were like a stick, hitting him awake with one end.

Lin Ningkun shut up instantly, and his eyes that were already red became filled with pain.

But it was only fleeting and disappeared after a while, returning to its usual coldness again.

Jiang Ruanxi looked at his emotional transformation and felt a little pity. If Zhou hadn't stopped him just now, he would have told Lin Xiao's life experience, and she would have been one step away from success.

It's really a pity.

"Mother, do you mean to promise me to take Brother Xiao back?"

Lin Qingxu was only immersed in his own joy at this moment, and did not notice anything wrong with what Zhou said.

"Yes, I promise you to take Brother Xiao back." Zhou nodded.

"What do second brothers mean?" Lin Qingxu looked at Lin Ningkun expectantly.

But Lin Ningkun clenched his hands tightly and turned his face to one side.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhou said, "Don't worry, I will persuade him properly."

After saying that, fearing that Lin Ningkun would say something inappropriate in his anger, he said to Jiang Ruan Xi, "I'm a little tired today. Your second sister is a guest. Bring her to your yard to entertain her."
