Chapter 173: I will not arrange for Lu Jiangnian to take a concubine

It seems that Lu Wei has been suffering a lot because of her infertility.

But what does this have to do with her?

She had no obligation to take responsibility for Lu Wei's negative emotions.

Lu Jiangnian also stood up and said sternly: "Who can you blame if you can't stand up?"

"Even if you can't give birth, so what? You are the mistress of the Liu family. They didn't marry you just to give birth to a child."

"I remember that my brother-in-law has several younger brothers. They already have children. If things really don't work out, you can adopt a child from them. You don't need to put yourself in a difficult position or try to please others."

"If the Liu family has any objections, let them talk to me or Dad."

"As long as you don't want your brother-in-law to take a concubine, I can suppress him and prevent him from taking a concubine for the rest of his life."

Lu Wei's expression brightened up a little. Finally, Lu Jiangnian said something she liked to hear.

"Your brother-in-law is well-mannered and polite. He doesn't like women. He has never thought of taking a concubine."

"It's just that he treated me so well, I can't bear to see him die without an heir. Although adoption is another solution, after all, he is not my own child, so how can it be the same?"

"He likes children. He loves the children in my brother's family very much. If I can't experience the joy of being a father in this life, how can I be worthy of him?"

"If it's really impossible, I can only... give him a concubine."

When she talked about the touching parts, she couldn't help crying.

Yuan Wanru lowered her head and curled her lips.

Life is never perfect.

If the Liu family wants this marriage, they must accept Lu Wei completely. Even if Lu Wei is infertile, it should be Lu Wei who has the final say on whether to take a concubine.

Because Lu Wei has the confidence.

Besides, maybe the one who can't have children is Liu's brother-in-law, not Lu Wei.

However, she would not say any more about Lu Wei's affairs.

Lu Jiangnian said sarcastically: "You are a man of deep feelings and loyalty. Now that you have thought it through, don't blame others in the future."

Since marrying into the Liu family, his sister's brain, which was not very smart to begin with, has become increasingly rigid.

Since you are reluctant to do so, why do you have to take a concubine for your husband? The Liu family is not the only one who can adopt a child. Others can do it, including the Liu family. They are not a royal family, and they still need their own blood to inherit the throne.

Besides, during the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Xuan of Han and Emperor Ai of Han both ascended the throne smoothly because the previous emperor had no children.

Even the royal family can adopt, so why can’t the tiny Liu family do the same?

Wang Min also felt very disappointed with the student.

"Why make it difficult for yourself? As long as your son-in-law doesn't mention it, you should never mention it."

"Even if he proposed it, if you don't want to, don't agree to it. Anyway, your father and Jiang Nian will decide for you."

Wang Min has suffered this loss himself.

How can a wife not care if a man takes a concubine?

If she had a capable family back then, perhaps Lu Song's two concubines would not have existed.

Wang Min's mind flashed through what happened to Lu Songna, Li, and Yu.

At that time, Wang Min's health was damaged after giving birth to Lu Jiangnian, and the doctor said that she would never be able to have children again.

After hearing this, Old Madam Lu threatened to commit suicide, forcing Lu Song to take a concubine.

Old Madam Lu said that it was difficult to raise a child, and there was only one child. If something happened to the young Lu Jiangnian, wouldn’t the Lu Song family be extinct?

She kept making a fuss, and Old Master Lu, who also wanted to have many children, came forward to plead for her. The two old men repeatedly mentioned the matter of taking a concubine to Wang Min's ears, especially Old Master Lu, who spoke earnestly and Wang Min was powerless to resist.

Finally, she compromised.

She and the two elders of the Lu family persuaded Lu Song together. Lu Song was very defensive, but finally he could not resist the persuasion of the three of them and married Li.

In fact, Wang Min knew that deep down in his heart, Lu Song also wanted to have many children, but he gave up this idea because he was concerned about her feelings.

Seeing Lu Song getting close to Li, she felt extremely uncomfortable and her life was extremely tormenting every day. During that period, she could hardly laugh.

But who is to blame for all this?

Li was born in a humble family and was a girl from an honest family. She did nothing wrong in this matter.

Lu Song was not wrong either. Wang Min agreed to his taking a concubine.

Wang Min didn't know how to face all this, and she gradually drifted away from Lu Song.

Even though Lu Song was not a meticulous person, how could he not feel anything when the couple, who were once loving, became speechless?

Fortunately, at that time, Li brought the good news that she was pregnant.

Lu Song didn't go there often in the first place, and thanks to Li's efforts, Lu Song felt relieved.

From then on, he never got close to Li again.

This time, Li was pregnant with a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, the second daughter Lu Yun and the third son Lu Jiangsui.

Lu Song felt more at ease.

Faced with Wang Min's estrangement, he said nothing. He just stayed with her silently every time he came back and didn't go anywhere.

Gradually, Wang Min let go of her worries and the two of them reconciled.

After this incident, Lu Song would certainly not take a second concubine.

However, Madam Lu was unwilling to give in.

She asked Lu Song to take a concubine, firstly to continue the family line, and secondly to make the relationship between her son and daughter-in-law cool.

Not achieving her second goal, she continued to struggle.

But this time, Lu Song refused to do it, and Old Master Lu couldn't say anything. Old Madam Lu had been struggling for several years, but to no avail.

Who could have thought that she actually resorted to some trickery. One time when Wang Min was not at home, she called Lu Song to Rongshou Hall, drugged the unsuspecting Lu Song, and designed to have Lu Song defile Yu, her maid.

Originally, Lu Song had no plan to take the person in as his roommate.

But who would have thought that Yu was actually pregnant. The matter was done and Lu Song had no choice but to marry her.

Because of this incident, Wang Min and Lu Song had a big fight. From then on, she never called Madam Lu "mother" or "mother-in-law" again, and always called her "old lady" in a distant and polite manner.

But Zhou Fang is quite interesting. At first, she was quite dissatisfied with Wang Min calling her Old Madam Lu, but later she actually started calling her "Old Madam" as well.

It can be seen that Old Lady Lu has a very bad character. Except for her own son, no one truly likes her.

After the incident with Yu, Lu Song's filial piety towards his mother decreased a bit. Even when he was alone in Rongshou Hall, he would never drink the soup or water handed to him by his mother. He was afraid of being plotted against.

It has been more than ten years since the affair between Li and Yu. The children have grown up and Wang Min has moved on.

But she didn't want her daughter to go through the same sad experience she had.

Likewise, she didn't want Wanru to go through all this.

Therefore, she would not arrange for Jiang Nian to take a concubine, and would even prevent him from taking a concubine.

She hoped that Wanru would give birth to Jiangnian's child smoothly, and that the couple would only have each other for the rest of their lives, with no third person left.

Wasn't she looking forward to this when she got married? Unfortunately, she didn't get it in the end.

She only wishes that Wanru could get it.

Lu Wei was stunned for a moment and didn't say anything.

This argument made everyone lose interest in talking. Wang Min sent Lu Jiangnian and Yuan Wanru to Rongshou Hall to pay their respects, and left Lu Wei behind.

When Mrs. Lu saw them, she said a few words indifferently, then said she was not in good spirits and asked them to leave.

Finally returning to Lingshuiju, Yuan Wanru felt completely relaxed.

Lu Jiangnian picked up a bowl of red date soup and asked, "Does your stomach still hurt?"

Yuan Wanru shook her head: "I'll feel much better after getting off the car."

"That's good. Have a good rest tonight. We'll talk about other things tomorrow."
