112: The biased calculation
Shen Zian had been holding Su Zhi's hand. He felt Su Zhi's hand tighten. Seeing her face darken, he patted her soothingly.
Su Zhi looked at Shen Zian's soothing eyes and knew that he would never let the old man get his wish. Although she was angry, she also felt relieved. Just at that moment, she was thinking that if Shen Zian didn't say anything, she would immediately let him know how powerful his wife was, and at worst, they would just divorce!
"Dad, what are you talking about? Are you saying that my second brother will not have a son?"
Shen Zian said with a stern face that he seldom smiled in front of others. Now Shen Youfu was going to ask him to give his son to someone else, and he could not be happy anymore. His face was gloomy, and the word "sharp as a knife" was very appropriate to describe it.
As soon as Shen Zian said this, his biased calculations in Chapter 112 came to their senses. Everyone in the room who had been stunned by Shen Youfu's words came to their senses. The first person to look unhappy was Shen Zigui. He looked at Shen Youfu and felt like a knife was stabbing his heart.
"Dad, in your heart, is your son destined to be extinct?!"
Shen Zigui was trembling all over. He thought, he had just said clearly that he was just someone else's son, and his father had mentioned the matter of inheritance to him. What was he trying to do? He was not old yet. He and the mother of the child might have other children, might have a son, might not be the last of the family. Why was his father as anxious to tell him about inheritance as his third brother and his wife? In their minds, what was he, Shen Zigui? ! Shouldn't he have a son? !
When Shen Youfu said that, he actually felt that something was wrong, but he had his own plan. Shen Zigui might not have a son to take care of him in his old age, and he also wanted to get in touch with the fourth son who was separated. If Shen Zian's son was inherited by Shen Zigui, then no matter how well they lived in the future, they would have to take care of the second son's family. Taking care of the second son's family meant taking care of the Shen family.
Shen Youfu knew that his son Shen Zian had been disobedient since he was young. This son was like a wolf cub. Chapter 112 The biased calculation was silent, but powerful. Moreover, because of his mother's affairs, he must hate his father in his heart. Now he has separated him and didn't give him any good things when the family was divided. He must hate him even more. Seeing that he secretly sold the ginseng, he couldn't get the money. He knew that it would not be easy for him to get some benefits from him for his sons at home, so he could only think of other ways.
Shen Youfu's solution was also a temporary idea, although it might make both sons feel uncomfortable. But for the Shen family and Ziju, it was worth it!
"Zigui, Daddy is doing this for your own good. If you have a son in the future, that's fine. If Zi'an has a son first, you can take him over. Maybe you can have a son in return."
There is a folk saying that if a family has no children, they can adopt one and then they will have their own children. Similarly, if you want a son, you can adopt a boy and if you want a daughter, you can adopt a girl.
Su Zhi was so angry that she laughed. She wondered what old man Shen Youfu was thinking. Shen Zigui didn't need to raise them when he had a son, but they had to give the son to the second wife to raise, and they even called it helping them to have children.
This old man must have looked down on Shen Zian and her! Why didn't he ask them if they were willing to pass on their son to someone else? And it was the first son! The role of this adopted son is not only to provide for the elderly, but also to help others find a son. What happens after the son is found? Will her son be returned to her or continue to be an embarrassing existence? !
Su Zhi felt that her good upbringing was about to burst at this moment. She also felt Shen Zian's stiffness and suddenly felt sorry for her husband. Shen Youfu at least considered Shen Zigui and explained it to him, but what about them? He didn't consider them at all before deciding on their child, and even decided the role of their child in front of them!
This kind of partiality is really heartbreaking.
Shen Youfu must be a very ruthless, selfish and willful person to do such a thing.
Shen Zhang is not a rough man like Shen Youfu. She knows what Shen Youfu is thinking and she supports him, but she is not so direct. When Shen Youfu said this, she knew that the old man was up to something!
"Dad, you haven't asked me yet whether I agree to let my son be adopted. Besides, he is the first son, the eldest son. Maybe I will only have one son in my lifetime. Have you thought about this?"
Shen Zian asked with a stern face. In his heart, he was actually so angry that he didn't want to talk. He just wanted to pull Su Zhi away from here and never set foot in this house again. But if he didn't ask clearly, he would not be willing to give up. He thought that since he was already hurt so deeply, it didn't matter if it got deeper. He might as well solve it all at once and explain everything clearly so that his father would give up and never think of harming his son again!
Shen Youfu looked at Shen Zian with a sullen face and spoke to him in such a cold tone. Although he knew that his decision just now was not very authentic, he was still not very happy. He was the father and could control his son, so naturally he could also decide where his grandson would go.
"You two are young and fertile, so you can definitely have another son. Even if you only have one son in this life, what difference does it make if he is raised with your second brother or with you?"
These words were said lightly, but they hit Shen Zian's heart hard.
Shen Zhu had also been listening beside him. She had not said anything, and she understood Shen Youfu's thoughts. In fact, she was thinking that it would be better if Su Zhi had only one son. Then, when that son was in the name of the second brother, wouldn't the fourth brother's money in the future also be in the name of the second brother? The second brother was easier to deal with than the fourth brother, and it would be easy to get money from him in the future. Although she was confident that she could live better than Shen Zian and the others in the future, who would complain about having too much money? Of course, she couldn't let it go if she could control it in her hands.
"Fourth brother, you and second brother have always been close. He loved you very much in the past. Are you reluctant to give him a son? Second brother will definitely love your son."
Su Zhi couldn't listen any longer. She held Shen Zian's hand and said, "Don't say that my second brother and his wife are still young. They have every hope of having their own son. Even if they really don't have a son in this lifetime as you said, if they like my son, they can naturally like him and raise him as their own son. What's the difference between raising him under my name and raising him under their name?"
Su Zhi spoke coldly. In her heart, she told herself that it was useless to talk to this unreasonable person. However, she could not help but refute the old man's words first, and then express her own attitude.
"Dad, I'm going to tell you straight, Zi'an and I will not pass our son on to anyone else. Not to mention our son, we won't give our daughter to anyone else either. Dad, just give up on this idea."
Su Zhi looked straight at Shen Youfu. Her voice was as cold as the snow outside, but a smile appeared on her face. She continued to speak almost through gritting her teeth.
"If you really feel sorry for my second brother and his wife, and really think they will never have a son, then let my fifth brother have a son for them in the future. When my fifth brother gets married and has a son, it will be the right time for my second brother to inherit the property if he doesn't have one. Besides, my fifth brother is smart, and his son will definitely be more promising and will be better to my second brother and his family. What do you think?"
"How can the youngest brother's son be adopted by the second brother?!"
Shen Zhu was the first to speak. She blurted out what she said and regretted it as soon as she finished speaking.
Su Zhi smiled at her and said, "Oh? Why can't the fifth brother's son be okay? He is still a younger brother, and the fifth brother and the second brother are from the same mother, right? They are even closer."
Shen Ziju looked at Su Zhi. He had been silent the whole time. In his heart, it was boring and ungraceful for a family to quarrel over such a thing. He was unwilling to participate. But now Su Zhi dragged him in. And it was such a sharp move. Looking at her smiling face, he could not feel the spring breeze at all. When those cold eyes looked at him, he thought that this woman who was once as gentle as water would be like this when she was angry. No quarrels, still elegant and dignified. Although she was dragged into the war and his future offspring were involved, he could not get angry.
Shen Youfu slammed the table in anger and said, "Zi Ju will be an official in the future, how can his son be passed on to someone else?!"
"Can't an official pass his son's title to his elder brother? I've never heard of such a provision in the laws of a good country."
Shen Ziping and Sun Shi had been silent since just now. They were thinking about how Shen Youfu's decision would benefit them. In the end, they felt that it would benefit them greatly. The Second Branch was determined not to have Wu Lang, so they could just inherit him. Anyway, the Second Branch didn't have much to gain. And if the Second Branch wanted to adopt Shen Zian's son, then the Second Branch would be tied to Shen Zian, and they would have one more place to get money.
"Second brother, you love fourth brother in vain. He is unwilling to give you a son. You should still choose my Wulang!"
Shen Ziping said loudly, thinking that he would help his father. If he could convince Shen Zian, that would be good. If he could not convince Shen Zian, and make the relationship between the second brother and the fourth brother bad, he would feel good. Finally, he thought about pushing Wulang to the second house. He had calculated everything.
Sun also said, "That's right, fourth brother, you just can't bear to give up your son. We are willing to give a son to you, second brother, so you should accept it. If you really don't like it, fourth brother must be willing to give you the son. Can you take it? Your husband and wife are not happy about it!"
Li stood there in a daze, no one knew what she was thinking. Chunyue and the others who surrounded her were also in a daze.
Shen Zigui stood there with his face turning pale and blue. Suddenly, he fell to his knees in front of Shen Youfu.
