Chapter 1258: There is a lot of room for maneuver here
It is naturally better for your own mother to be the head of the household than for other women to be the head of the household.
Only when his mother is the head of the family will he feel like he is the legitimate son.
But he couldn't stop this kind of thing at all.
"Don't worry, mother. Right now, father is preoccupied with the weaving workshop and silk, and hasn't thought about this yet. Even if he really wants to get married, it will take at least half a year before he considers it. The soonest the bride will be married will be by the end of the year, or even next year, right? We still have time."
"Mother, why don't you take advantage of this time to make friends with the matchmakers in Yangzhou City? If you really can't stop it, you can find out which girls are suitable for father to marry."
Qin's eyes lit up, she looked at him and smiled, "After all, Ye'er loves mother and cares about her!"
If she made a matchmaker in advance, she could even secretly manipulate Zhao Mu to marry the girl she liked as his successor. How could Zhao Mu understand this? He just needed a decent mistress, so naturally he had to ask a matchmaker for help.
There is a lot of room for maneuver here!
It just costs a little more money.
She is no longer the same as before. She can throw away hundreds or thousands of taels of silver without fear that the matchmaker will not be tempted!
"You are my mother, and it is only natural for me as a son to think about you," Zhao Ye smiled and casually said, "By the way, my eldest brother should have returned from the government office, why don't you see him?"
Qin also just remembered her eldest son, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed: "You didn't tell me that I didn't think of it for a while! But where did he go? There was something going on at home, but he still went out for a walk? How could he go out with peace of mind?"
Qin was really dissatisfied and angry.
If Zhao Zhai were there too, the three of them, mother and son, would always be more imposing than the two of them.
Besides, Zhao Zhai had a straightforward temper, so how could he tolerate Zhao Shu's nonsense? He might even hit him.
Shouldn’t Zhao Shu be beaten?
Zhao Ye put on eye drops, and when he saw that his mother blamed his eldest brother, he quickly spoke up for his eldest brother and persuaded his mother.
As for Zhao Zhai?
Of course he didn't go out for a walk.
Just as Qin thought, he wanted to rush back home to find fault with Zhao Shu.
Unfortunately, he fell quite hard and his ankle was swollen like a steamed bun. He had to be carried back to the yard, and he could only lie on the bed groaning and calling for a doctor.
When Qin found out, she hurried over to visit him. Seeing him like this, she felt a little distressed.
Zhao Zhai kept scolding Zhao Shu, and Qin felt better.
In the afternoon, Zhao Ye also came to visit Zhao Zhai.
The two brothers rarely quarreled, but instead faced the outside world in unity.
Zhao Zhai also has a clear understanding of this point.
Then, he was unknowingly led into the ditch by Zhao Ye again.
After Zhao Ye left, Zhao Zhai unconsciously thought about taking revenge on Zhao Shu.
A legitimate son? Oh, he has lost his mother, his father doesn’t love him, and even his maternal grandparents are gone, so what’s the point of being a legitimate son! He, a bastard, just wants to bully the legitimate son and trample him into the mud, what’s wrong with that?
Only then did he realize that he was not someone to be trifled with!
However, no one in the Zhao family expected that the changes would come so quickly.
The next day, someone from the Zhao clan came and asked Zhao Shu to be adopted.
He was adopted as the son of the clan leader's younger brother who died early in life before he had a chance to get married.
Of course, Zhao Shu also gave the clan leader a lot of benefits, so the clan leader was naturally happy.
Zhao Shu was also happy about it. After being adopted, he would no longer be under the supervision of any direct elders and could completely get rid of Zhao Mu.
Zhao Mu was shocked and angry, so he naturally refused.
Even if he disliked Zhao Shu in every way, Zhao Shu was still his only legitimate son.
