"Why not? Has Qianniang's attitude softened?" the old lady asked hurriedly after hearing Li Zhandi's words.
His face showed a hint of urgency, and his voice betrayed a touch of doubt.
"Madam is utterly stubborn!"
"It's impossible to explain it clearly to her."
"Whenever the topic of adopting Juege comes up, they start rambling on and on, and in the end they even mention that they want to adopt a child who is a little older, around ten years old!"
Li Zhan said with a grim expression, his voice laced with anger.
"What? I asked you to deliver the hairpin to Qianniang. Did you deliver it?" After hearing Li Zhandi's words, the old lady asked about the hairpin first.
His face still held a hint of seriousness.
“Mother, I delivered it. It’s the hairpin from the Diyu Manlou family that you mentioned.”
"However, it had no effect. The lady still did not agree to the matter of adopting Juege."
"I think it won't be easy to get Madam to give in," Li Zhan said angrily, his voice laced with coldness.
"That's strange. Qianniang didn't side with you. After all, you are her husband," the old lady said, looking puzzled.
"Zhan'er, don't you think so? Qianniang has found out about Juege's identity?" the old lady asked immediately afterward.
His face was serious, and his voice was even more earnest.
"Probably not, after all, Brother Jue has been out raising land all these years, so Madam hasn't had a chance to know about him."
"Furthermore, given Madam's personality, if she were to find out about this, she certainly wouldn't be able to hide it!" Li Zhan analyzed carefully after hearing the old lady's words.
His face was tinged with a somber expression. Even his voice carried a hint of seriousness.
"Then why does Qian Niang keep disagreeing?" After hearing Li Zhandi's words, the old lady also felt that it was impossible for Qian Niang to find out that Jue Ge was Zhandi's biological son.
However, he was still puzzled by Mo Qian's reluctance.
"Perhaps Madam hasn't given up on wanting to give birth naturally," Li Zhan said after hearing the old lady's words, his face serious.
However, a glint of malice flashed in his eyes.
"If she could have given birth, she would have done it already!" The old lady's face flashed with anger after hearing Li Zhandi's words. Her voice was filled with rage.
"Over the years, she hasn't given the Li family a single son or daughter, and we haven't divorced her. That's already more than enough."
The old lady then continued, her voice brimming with uncontrollable anger.
"It's all thanks to her family's support; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to remain the general's wife for so many years," the old lady continued solemnly.
"Mother, let's not talk about this now. Let's think about what to do right now." After hearing the old lady's words, Li Zhan's face flashed with annoyance, and his voice also revealed a hint of impatience.
"Since your actions aren't working, why not threaten her with a letter of divorce? Let's see if she'll give in!"
"After all, which lady isn't afraid of being divorced and bringing shame upon her family!" the old lady said coldly, her voice tinged with icy malice.
"Mother, is this alright?" Li Zhan asked with a hint of doubt after hearing the old lady's words.
“It can’t be wrong. You’re not a woman, you wouldn’t understand,” the old lady said, looking at Li Zhan. Her face was serious, and her voice was earnest.
"Alright then," Li Zhan said with a somber expression after hearing the old lady's words.
"However, we must be careful not to overdo it. After all, Qian Niang's family is still of some use, and it is entirely beneficial to our General's Mansion!"
The old lady then continued, her face serious and her voice earnest.
She showed absolutely no indication of how shameless her words were!
"Yes, Mother." Li Zhan replied with a gloomy expression after hearing the old lady's words.
His face was dark and gloomy. Even his voice sounded muffled and irritable.
As a dignified general, he had to rely on his wife's family to facilitate his actions in the court, which made him feel somewhat embarrassed!
Afterwards, Li Zhan spoke with the old lady for a while before leaving her courtyard.
Although a solution has been developed, Li Zhan, because of what happened earlier, doesn't want to see Mo Qian so soon. Therefore, he didn't confront Mo Qian immediately.
Instead, he busied himself with his own affairs, thinking he would go find Mo Qian in a few days.
Meanwhile, Mo Qian had already finished packing her dowry and other items.
During this time, Du Jiaoniang, who knew about the old lady's idea, couldn't help but blink.
To be honest, she really didn't want to keep hiding like this anymore!
She also didn't want to see her Zhan Lang, who was nominally Mo Qian's husband.
She didn't want any of her sons to be born into a legitimate family!
If Mo Qian is divorced, then everything will be resolved!
Thinking of this, a dark glint flashed across Du Jiaoniang's eyes.
So, the next time she met with Li Zhan, she secretly stirred things up.
Five days later,
Li Zhan came to Mo Qiandi's courtyard again.
However, because of what had happened earlier, his face didn't show a good expression at this moment. Instead, it was gloomy.
After entering the courtyard, Li Zhan went straight into Mo Qiandi's house.
As you walk, a chilling atmosphere pervades!
Upon entering the room, Li Zhan saw Mo Qian still lying lazily on the soft couch, and a dark look flashed across his face.
"Why is the general here today?" Mo Qian asked calmly, showing no surprise at seeing Li Zhan.
His voice carried a hint of indifference.
"Madam, I've come today still regarding the previous adoption matter," Li Zhan said after hearing Mo Qian's words. However, a look of displeasure flashed across his face.
"Madam, after much thought these past few days, I believe it's safer to adopt Jue-ge," Li Zhan said, his eyes fixed on Mo Qian, a serious expression on his face.
Even his voice conveyed a sense of seriousness.
"General, I already stated last time that adoption is possible, but it's best to avoid such a young child."
"If it's someone around ten years old, I'll agree to the adoption," Mo Qian said to Li Zhan.
His face held a resolute expression, and his voice was serious.
"Madam, are you really not going to reconsider?!" Upon hearing Mo Qian's words, a dark look flashed across Li Zhan's face.
Then he asked another question, his voice carrying a hint of coldness.
"I don't want to think about it anymore. I think the general understands what I mean," Mo Qian replied after hearing Li Zhandi's words, her face calm.
Even his voice was calm and unwavering, completely unaffected by the chilling aura of the fierce battle.
"I disagree!"
"Let's adopt Jue-ge then!" Li Zhan said directly after hearing Mo Qian's words, his face showing a hint of anger.
Even the volume of the sound increased by several octaves as a result.
He looked furious!
"No! I refuse!" Mo Qian said firmly after hearing Li Zhandi's words, her voice rising several octaves.
Its momentum is in no way inferior to that of a fierce warrior!
There was a resolute quality in his voice!
