"I won't hide it from you. Originally, Qianbin wanted to give it to Shiliu and Shiliu's daughter-in-law to raise. After all, Shiliu and his wife have small children, so they can be companions with An'er." Mrs. Tao said in a low voice. He said, "Besides, Shiliu and his wife are not very valued. An'er raising them will attract less attention than raising you and Shijiu. But... I advise her to leave it to you!"
"Because I don't want Qianbin's only flesh and blood to be wronged again!"
Mrs. Tao was deeply shocked by the death of little Mrs. Tao. She felt it was difficult to say these words while standing by the cradle. She walked to the couch and sat down before continuing, "Sixteenth daughter-in-law is a smart woman." It's a pity that people are born... Sixteen is far less proud than Nineteen among brothers. They can treat An'er well if they raise her. However, if others want to make trouble for An'er, they may not be able to stop him. Live. You know that our family always values the legitimate son, especially the first daughter-in-law! It is impossible for your eighth brother not to marry again. An'er will definitely be an eyesore to his stepmother in the future. I have thought about it and want him to grow up safely. It’s definitely better for you to be raised by the Nineteenth than by the Sixteenth couple!”
The old lady didn't say why little Tao asked his son to be raised by his brother-in-law before he died. The reason didn't need to be mentioned at all - not to mention the usual chaos in Jiang Yadan's backyard, let's just say that those people outside just had "please" written on their faces. The ladies who came through the door are enough to prove the danger of An'er's situation!
If this child was raised in Jiang Yadan's backyard, he would probably be sent to be with little Tao in a matter of minutes!
Mrs. Tao is the eldest daughter-in-law of the fourth bedroom. If her son wants to be raised on her behalf, she will naturally consider the two brothers-in-law from the fourth bedroom.
Mrs. Tao thought that it was well known that Jiang Yashuang was the grandson who was most valued by the Duke of Qin, and Qiu Yilan was famous for being fierce and fierce. Both of these couples are known to be difficult to mess with, and with their tempers, if Jiang Yadan's step-brother raises little Tao's son and wants to cause trouble, it will definitely not end well!
But Jiang Yazhu and his wife... do not have the confidence to be strong.
However, although An'er was brought up by Qiu Yilan and his wife, although it was of great benefit to An'er, it was not necessarily the case for Qiu Yilan and his wife.
Mrs. Tao did not mince words on this point: "It is very troublesome to raise such a young child. You have not given birth yet. Even if you have mothers to help you, you will be in a hurry. And if you are not your own mother, no matter what you do, someone will inevitably I think you are not dedicated enough, but this is only now; when you have children of your own, there will be more people gossiping. With Nineteen's talents, in the future, only you, my brother, will beg you, not you. Please ask him to raise this child without any affection in front of your eighth brother! So it makes sense that you don’t accept him!”
Qiu Yilan bit her lips: "Now that grandma has said this, grandson-in-law won't talk to you anymore! Granddaughter-in-law is also aware of eighth sister-in-law's worries, and granddaughter-in-law is very willing to share her worries with eighth sister-in-law!"
After a pause, "My granddaughter-in-law has never been a mother, and she is worried that she will not be able to raise An'er well!"
This was the truth - she had never raised a child before, and the mortality rate of children, especially boys, remained high these days. When An'er was suddenly handed over to her, she was simply stunned!
"As long as you are willing to support him, I will take care of other things for you!" Mrs. Tao rubbed her forehead and said calmly, "After all, I won't ask you to do your best without being thanked... How about it?"
Qiu Yilan pondered for a while and nodded resolutely: "My granddaughter-in-law will do her best!"
"... Go ahead and tell Nineteen about this!" Mrs. Tao breathed a sigh of relief and waved her hand, "He should agree, but I have to tell him, right?"
After Qiu Yilan left, Mother Hu quietly entered the inner room and asked in a low voice: "Are you going to tell Madam Nineteenth about this now? I think it's too early."
"How come it's early?" Mrs. Tao frowned as she stared at the cradle.
"The Nineteenth Young Master has never given birth to a child, how can she raise such a big child?" Mother Hu advised, "Especially if it is not her biological child! Even though she took Mr. Sun over because of her friendship with the Eighth Young Master. , but the child is so noisy that it might get annoying after a few more visits! It’s better to raise her up here, and then leave it to her!”
Mrs. Tao shook her head and said: "You don't understand! Emotions come from childhood. As the old saying goes, it is better to give birth to kindness than to cultivate kindness. This is the truth! An'er was given to her to be raised a few days after she landed. Even if she got annoyed in the middle, In the future, when the child becomes sensible, she will naturally forget it! If she is raised here by me... even if it is only a full week old - if you want to pamper her so much in Nineteen, she doesn't even have a concubine. She has been married for almost two years, so she might be able to live a good life. There is news... How can An'er send it over?"
"Then when she gives birth and has her own child, even if she takes An'er over, her attention will be on her own child! How much care will An'er have when it's her turn?"
"So we must leave it to her now - while she has no children of her own and can devote herself to taking care of An'er, save her feelings! In this way, even if she has biological flesh and blood in the future, she will not treat An'er lightly!"
Mother Hu still felt that it was a little early to send her away: "But it is not all the 19th Young Master who makes the decision over there. There is also the 19th Young Master watching - the 19th Young Master has always respected the Eighth Young Madam, and will never watch the Eighth Young Madam suffer the consequences of her flesh and blood. It’s aggrieved! I’m afraid that the Nineteenth Young Master won’t be able to take care of Mr. Sun.”
"Is it possible that Nineteenth has to work as an errand to take care of the children in the backyard every day?" Mrs. Tao smiled bitterly, "Why else would I know that I would leave An'er to the couple to raise? As long as I mentioned this to Nineteenth, he would definitely agree! But we still need to get the consent of the Nineteenth Wife first, and ask her to inform the Nineteenth? Even if the Nineteenth takes An'er over, it must be the Nineteenth Wife who is mainly taking care of An'er - as for saying that she doesn't know how to take care of the children, you don't have to do that. I’m worried that the mother Zhou in her dowry is Princess Ruan’s wet nurse. She has raised Princess Ruan and her old man. How can she take care of An’er?”
Sighing, "Qiu Jinglan spoils this sister like nothing. Do you think he will forget to care about the care of his nephew after he is born in Western Xinjiang? If he didn't have confidence in this mother Zhou, he would have looked for someone long ago. Good people have been arranged to enter the house! So if the 19th daughter-in-law cannot take care of An'er, it's because An'er is not blessed enough. It's not that she doesn't know how to take care of her, or she doesn't do her best... Do you understand?"
Mother Hu saw the warning in her eyes and lowered her head: "Old slave, I admit my guilt!"
"The Nineteenth couple are not fools. There is no benefit to them raising An'er. Instead, they are worried and responsible. They have to explain to Xiaoba later!" Mrs. Tao said tiredly, "They have paid so much, and yet they are being held behind their backs. Talking nonsense will make anyone unhappy! Especially An'er, who I, Dai Qianbin, begged them to raise. If we all doubt whether Nineteenth's daughter-in-law will be able to raise him well... Do you think she will not fall out? It’s not a big deal to complain about your grievances in front of me, but what if you treat An’er badly in private?”
Qiu Yilan is not An'er's biological mother, Xiao Tao. She has the qualities of an excellent daughter-in-law who is submissive. If she were to know what Mother Hu said, Mrs. Tao is sure that she would never give up!
Mrs. Tao finally planned a future for An'er, but she didn't want it to be messed up by Hu's mother's confusion!
Mother Hu knelt down with sweat dripping from her back: "Old slave... I don't dare to do it anymore!"
"Get up and talk!" Seeing that Hu's mother had been beaten enough, Mrs. Tao said calmly, "Sooner or later, Xiao Ba will have to renew his string, so we have to get An'er to the knees of Mr. and Mrs. Nineteen quickly, otherwise the newlyweds will be in Xiao Ba after they have passed the door. After all, Xiaoba is An'er's father and the person most qualified to support him. How can he hand over An'er to the Nineteenth couple without hurting the face of both parties? How can he have a good life? …”
The reason why An'er was raised by Qiu Yilan and his wife was ultimately determined to be a vague destiny issue: the child's destiny was not suitable for being raised by his biological parents!
In order to prevent his stepmother from taking him back after entering the house, and to solve Qiu Yilan's worries, Mrs. Tao made a determined decision and asked the critic to add an almost curse word: If this child is forced to be taken back to his parents, he will definitely not be able to raise him. big! Leave it to your uncle and aunt to raise, there is still a glimmer of hope!
In this way, no matter how much the future stepmother wants to express her closeness to her first wife and legitimate son, she has to go around him, otherwise she will be suspected of deliberately wanting him dead! Qiu Yilan can also relax and raise his nephew, because leaving An'er to his uncle and aunt to raise him is just a slim chance of survival - so if he raises him alive, his life will be good, but if he raises him to death, his own life will be poor. It's not that his uncle and aunt didn't raise him well!
Qiu Yilan had no objection to this. She was currently busy decorating An'er's house and preparing to take over the upbringing of her nephew. It was too late to ask Sheng Shishui, Zhou's mother and other people who came over all day long, so there was no time to take care of other things - anyway, Mrs. Tao promised that she would solve it, and Qiu Yilan was very relieved about the old lady's methods.
Jiang Yashuang felt that something was wrong: "Grandma, wouldn't it be difficult for An'er and Bago to see each other in the future? Is this the love between father and son?"
"Your Eighth Brother is very busy. How many of his children can see him often?" Mrs. Tao said lightly, "And the nature of father and son, is it possible that your Eighth Brother will raise him under your knees because of An'er?" Don’t you recognize him? “It’s better to meet Jiang Yadan less often! Don't teach good children bad things if you see them too many times!
Mrs. Tao hopes that An'er will not have too much contact with her biological father in her life, and learning from her uncle Jiang Yashuang is the right way!
Jiang Yashuang couldn't talk to the old lady, but she felt uneasy, so she went to Jiang Yadan to explain. But Jiang Yadan really didn't feel angry about not being able to see his legitimate son often. She patted his shoulder and said carelessly: "I was just thinking Now that your eighth sister-in-law is gone, it’s not easy for my concubine Ji to raise a legitimate son. Grandma is too old and can’t always be taken care of by her. You and your sister-in-law can help me solve this problem!”
Without waiting for Jiang Yashuang to speak, Jiang Yadan said to himself, "I am just such a legitimate son, so it is just right for you to bring him up. It is better for him to learn from you than from me - a person like me has a family If there are just one or two, it’s fine. If there are too many, you will follow in the footsteps of the Tao family!”
He himself wasted the talent given by God and became dandy and dissolute, but he was not so stupid that he was indifferent to his son's future. He still hoped that his son would become successful.
When it came to this matter, Jiang Yashuang did not pretend to be pretentious with him: "Then we will take care of An'er. If Bage misses him, just come and see him alone. It is convenient to go at any time." He deliberately emphasized that "alone" "The two words reminded Jiang Yadan that he and his wife were wary of his unconfirmed continuation!
In this way, An'er was carried to the knees of Jiang Yashuang and his wife. The Jiang family knew the reason clearly. They all lamented that little Tao was so lucky and miserable. For many years, he had been bullied and wronged because he had no children. It was so easy to have a son. I went there myself!
If Mrs. Tao hadn't been protecting her, her son might not have been able to survive for long if she left alone!
Now it is handed over to my brother-in-law's room. Under Jiang Yashuang's guidance and supervision, it should be improved in the future, right? This can be regarded as comforting little Tao's spirit in heaven.
An'er's affairs gradually calmed down with the burial of little Mrs. Tao. On this day, Qiu Yilan was still studying hard to take care of the baby. A servant outside the door hurriedly came to report: Jiang Qizheng is giving birth!
