"Yier, what do you think about this? Since Aze is only willing to stay with you, then adopt two children."
"Raising them since they were young, the relationship must be deep. It's almost like treating them as your own children." Mother Lin smiled, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were revealed.
Xu Jinyi looked at the two children, a boy and a girl, standing aside, walked over, and said with a smile: "What are your names?"
"Madam, my name is Jiang Linlin, and this is my younger brother, Jiang Ruize."
When Mother Lin saw Xu Jinyi being close to the two children, she was delighted. She could finally raise her grandchildren by her side.
However, the next second, Xu Jinyi's expression turned indifferent, and she immediately refused: "These two children are so old now, they can already remember things. I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to develop a close relationship even if I keep them by my side."
"My daughter-in-law thinks that it is better for my husband to take a concubine and give birth to a child of his own."
Mother Lin stood up and said, "Didn't we discuss this before? You're not in good health, and it would be a hassle to take care of a child who's too young. These two children look very well-behaved and obedient to me."
"Besides, Aze has sworn that he will never take a concubine, so we should adopt these two children."
Xu Jinyi's expression became hesitant, and after a pause he said, "This girl is already seven years old, and we don't know what her temperament will be like. What if she's just pretending and turns out to be an ungrateful person when she grows up? That would be disastrous."
"Mother, look at this boy again. He's not smart at all. I'm afraid he can't handle important tasks. How can he be my legitimate son?"
"They both have ordinary looks, with a mean look between their brows, and they look petty. No, no, my daughter-in-law should think about it again."
"It's better for the mother of these two children to be sent away quickly."
Jiang Linlin was seven years old, so she naturally understood the disdain in Xu Jinyi's words, saying that she and her siblings were ugly and ungrateful.
The little hands behind her were tightly clenched, and humiliation flashed in her eyes, but in order to stay, she had to put on a cute smile.
"Madam, we are really good and obedient. Please keep us. When we grow up, we will definitely repay you well."
Despite being so young, he is so flexible and can remain calm even when being insulted. No wonder he was able to kill the original owner.
"Yes, now that the two children are here, our family doesn't need two pairs of chopsticks. You can adopt them. If they don't behave in the future, you can kick them out of the house." Mother Lin stepped forward to speak to the two children.
She didn't understand why they were disagreeing when it was already a done deal?
Xu Jinyi nodded: "It is true that the mansion has enough food for the two children, but these two children were picked up on the street, and I don't know what kind of environment they lived in."
"It has nothing to do with our Lin family. My daughter-in-law is really afraid of raising two ungrateful people."
"If this thing grows up, the first thing it will take revenge on is itself. How disgusting that would be."
Mother Lin was anxious, fearing that this plan would really fail: "No, no, I actually know the origins of these two children. Their backgrounds are absolutely clean."
Xu Jinyi looked at her suspiciously.
Mother Lin's expression became embarrassed and guilty: "Mom lied to you, actually these are my niece's children."
"Alas, she had a miserable life. Not long after she gave birth to two children, her husband died. She was left alone in the countryside to raise the two children."
"I'm at my wit's end now. I sent a letter asking my mother to find a good family for her two children and see if anyone can adopt them."
"After I found out, I had an idea. Since you don't have any children, why not just raise them under your name? Wouldn't that be a good thing?"
"You don't have to be sad about not having an heir. Our Lin family's bloodline will not be cut off, and my poor niece will be able to remarry."
Xu Jinyi's expression turned to pity: "So that's how it is. I didn't expect these two children to have such a tragic fate. Their biological father died at such a young age."
Lin's mother choked!
His son was alive and well, but he didn't say anything.
Xu Jinyi seemed to suddenly remember something and said "Huh".
"Then the father of these two children is the domestic violence man, right? Their mother is only their niece, Li Yan."
"It's the cousin that mother said she would come and live with us, right?"
Mother Lin nodded stiffly, not knowing what she wanted to say.
"Then it's a good thing their biological father died. A man who loved domestic violence, he's dead and gone."
Mother Lin took two deep breaths and kept saying in her heart, "No taboos, no taboos."
The biological father of her two grandsons is alive and well and will surely live a long life.
Mother Lin smiled and said, "Yes, both children are so pitiful. Why don't you take them in? You are their cousin and will definitely treat you well when they grow up."
"That's not right, mother. Since they are my cousin's children and they said they would come to live with us soon, why didn't they come with the children?"
Xu Jinyi's expression became more and more suspicious, and that look frightened Lin's mother, fearing that she had guessed something.
She quickly explained, "She was afraid she couldn't bear to leave her two children behind, so she sent them here first."
Xu Jinyi pursed her lips and looked at Mother Lin with a hint of reproach: "As a mother, it's normal for you to be reluctant to part with your child. Mother, isn't what you're doing the same as stealing someone else's child?"
"Although I don't have children, I would never do anything like stealing someone else's children. Besides, adopting two children would preserve the Lin family's bloodline, but what about her husband's family?"
"No matter how monstrous their biological father was, he's already dead. Not leaving any bloodline for them, isn't that too much?"
"I, Xu Jinyi, would never do anything that would damage my image. Mother, please don't mention the adoption of our two children again."
Xu Jinyi's words were sharp and his tone was firm, and Lin's mother knew that the matter was over.
This daughter-in-law has always been obedient, and this is the first time she has been so resolute, but Lin's mother also knows that this will backfire.
Then he said: "If that's the case, then forget it. We can talk about it if there is another suitable child in the future."
"Well, since the two children are my cousin's children, and my cousin will be coming in a few days, then you can stay here."
"Dujuan, arrange for someone to clean up Qingfeng Garden and let the two children live there."
Mother Lin was stunned: "Isn't he living in Lanxiang Garden next to you?"
The Lanxiang Garden has been cleaned up, and all the things have been replaced with new ones. Moreover, the yard is bigger than the Qingfeng Garden.
The most important thing is that it is close to Xu Jinyi's yard. After living there, the two children can hang around her every day.
