Favoring Concubines and Neglecting the Wife? The General’s Wife Calls it Quits and Divorces! – Chapter 63

Ch 63: Names

After Old Madam Nian left, the atmosphere at the scene turned cold for a while.

Guo Liangxian also shook his head and walked over, “I accept whoever you choose.”

Then, he faced the relatives and said,

“Do you have any other objections?”

Second Uncle’s eyes darted around. Since Ji Ge’er had been chosen, what objections could there be?!

Third Uncle was stifled and could only grit his teeth.

Fifth Uncle was helpless. He couldn’t outmaneuver Second Brother, nor could he persuade Eldest Sister-in-Law, so he could only shake his head and give up!

The children also returned to their respective parents and grandfathers.

Only Ji Ge’er looked back and saw his grandfather giving him an encouraging gesture, determined to succeed!

With his grandfather’s arrangement, Ji Ge’er was extremely satisfied.

A hanging heart was also relieved.

After kneeling for Old Madam Nian’s departure, Yuan Xueyue stood up. Ji Ge’er, with quick eyes and hands, also stood up immediately and grabbed Yuan Xueyue’s fingers!

He was afraid that if he let go, this noble lady would forget him!

Because just now, she had almost walked past him!

She actually, actually went to choose Guo Zisong first!

In contrast, Guo Zisong was half a beat slower and didn’t dare to take the initiative to hold Yuan Xueyue’s hand. That fair wrist was warm and comfortable.

Guo Zisong felt like he was living in a dream, his heart beating non-stop!

Yuan Xueyue bent down slightly and said to them,

“In the next two days, there will be a ceremony at the ancestral hall. From now on, you will be my sons.”

Ji Ge’er happily called out, “Yes, Mother!”

His biological mother in the distance felt a pang in her heart, filled with sorrow!

For the sake of her son’s future, this was the only way!

Yuan Xueyue frowned,

“You are called Guo Ziji? How old are you?”

Guo Liangxian was responsible for smoothing things over here, arranging for the relatives to return to their courtyards to rest. The soldiers also gradually dispersed, and the servants and maids were also cleaning up the mess.

Enough trouble had been caused, and the matter was settled. How could they dare to stir up anything more? Old Madam Nian had a headache and went to Zhongsi Hall to rest.

When Guo Liangxian was about to leave, he saw Lin Yan’er hiding at the entrance of the courtyard and immediately pulled her away!

Guo Ziji said, “Nine and a half years old!”

Yuan Xueyue, “So old?”

She touched his hand again, and there were obvious marks of holding a brush on his fingers. Then she pulled up Guo Zisong’s hand. There were some fine calluses on his hand, but no marks of holding a brush!

But even so, could she go back on her word in front of Second Uncle?

Yuan Xueyue sighed and asked Guo Zisong, “How old are you?”

He was stunned, his eyes not daring to look up, his body trembling slightly, too excited to speak!

Guo Ziji rolled his eyes in silence, then smiled at Yuan Xueyue and said,

“He’s called Guo Zisong, five and a half years old, I think. He’s a mute!”

Guo Zisong, “…”

Yuan Xueyue saw that the relatives had walked far away, and her expression turned slightly cold, “You cannot slander your own brothers!”

“Barring any unforeseen circumstances, after the ceremony, you will be the Eldest Young Master of the residence. Your words and actions must not be reckless.”

“Today he is your cousin, tomorrow and in the future, he will be your younger brother. You cannot treat your younger brother like this.”

She corrected him briefly. Guo Ziji didn’t understand, “But he just doesn’t speak!”

Yuan Xueyue helped her skirt and half-squatted down, facing the timid Guo Zisong,

“Speak boldly, what is your name?”

Guo Zisong hesitated, his chest heaving violently.

Was he, was he really chosen?

Guo Zisong slowly raised his head, his eyes clear and bright, “I, my name is Guo Zisong!”

Guo Ziji beside him was full of disdain.

So what if he was chosen by the Legal Mother first? He’s a weakling!

Yuan Xueyue nodded, smiled, and gave them a few instructions, then asked Cuiping to take them down to get cleaned up first.

Afterwards, she would let them go to their biological parents to say a word.

Next, Old Madam Nian and the uncles would decide whether to hold the ceremony tomorrow or the day after.

◈◈◈

Xing Ge’er, also known as Guo Xinger, had a simple and crude ceremony. After it was hastily performed in the ancestral hall, he was handed over to Yuan Xueyue, and a family letter was drafted to be sent to Lucheng!

The residence also officially announced that Xing Ge’er was accepted as a young master!

Old Madam Nian took matters into her own hands and paved the way for Xing Ge’er.

She had always expected this day to come.

But she didn’t expect it to be so soon. Old Madam Nian was probably furious now.

With this happening, the relatives would also be much quieter.

At least they wouldn’t cause trouble for several days. Before leaving, they would find something to do.

The first gathering caused such a big incident, and Old Madam Nian didn’t want to dine with them anymore.

Fortunately, the residence had expanded a lot of servants, so they were sent to entertain!

The kitchen was busy every day. As soon as breakfast was prepared, they went to prepare lunch, and then dinner and various things!

Especially with more children, more people, and snacks and other foods, they kept calling out!

The relatives also stayed in their respective courtyards, delighted.

Pear Garden was relatively far from them. Pity Yaoyu Pavilion and Yanling Courtyard, each adjacent to a courtyard!

It was noisy during the day, and they continued to frolic at night!

Zhongsi Hall was even further away, with the gates tightly closed, deaf to everything!

Only Yuan Xueyue occasionally went to see her Mother-in-Law. Other relatives also occasionally took turns to go and chat.

Having accepted the two children, Guo Liangxian didn’t pay much attention to it. With his mother and wife managing them, after sending the relatives away, he could slowly take care of it. It wouldn’t be too late!

Lin Yan’er stayed in Yanling Courtyard and was very puzzled,

“What’s going on? It’s so lively, why doesn’t the General call me to go! He even has servants guarding me!”

Lin Yan’er still remembered what happened that day.

She originally wanted to go find her Paternal Aunt to come forward together, but unexpectedly, Guo Lianglian refused to see visitors!

It seemed that Guo Lianglian was even less able to see guests!

Guo Liangxian hushed,

“You calm down during this time, just stay here and don’t go out. Maids and servants will bring you food, and I will come to see you often. Don’t show off in front of the relatives and embarrass us!”

Lin Yan’er said, “Why? They are all the General’s relatives, people of the Guo Family, why can’t I see them?”

Guo Liangxian said coldly,

“Why else? What are you? My Concubine! Of course, you can’t see guests!

And you’re pregnant, you just found out, you can’t go near those little brats. They’ve been running wild in Lucheng for years,

What if they accidentally bump into you? They have my uncles to protect them. If a Concubine like you has a Miscarriage, what can I do? How can I speak for you?”

Lin Yan’er was speechless, “…”

She stroked her belly and reluctantly nodded in agreement.

Guo Liangxian was very clear on this point. A wife is a wife, and a concubine is a concubine. Even if he favored a concubine, the concubine could not be presented in public!

But even so, in the future, Lin Yan’er would have her own way to make Guo Liangxian waver step by step!

Pear Garden.

Two teenagers of different shapes stood at the door.

At this time, they had changed into clean and tidy clothes, made of silk and beautiful satin, each embroidered with different patterns.

Ji Ge’er’s clothes were embroidered with a fierce tiger, indicating that he would be flamboyant and assertive in the future, not keeping a low profile.

Song Ge’er’s clothes were embroidered with pine trees, indicating that he would be down-to-earth in his life and work!

The two came together, and it was also the next morning.

The maids taught them some rules, that they should first pay their respects to the Wife!

Even though the ceremony was still being planned, Ji Ge’er couldn’t wait to curry favor and please this Legal Mother!

It’s the third watch! I’ll be here every day at midnight. Follow me, watch me, you won’t regret it! No unfinished updates or abandoned stories, updates on time~ Rain or shine!

It’s Friday, the end of the month. You contribute a piece, I contribute a piece, tomorrow Puff will be on the overall list!

New December, I wish you all good luck and success!
