Xu Sumin gasped after being pinched by her, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "My good sister, please forgive me!"
Shen Xinyan let go of her hand resentfully: "Then you tell the truth, who is Dundun's biological father?"
"Why do you ask this? After all, my son belongs to me alone, and I want him to inherit my family business in the future!" Xu Sumin was extremely proud when she thought of the son she finally got.
"Those old guys used to disobey me because I was a woman. After I peeled off a few layers of skin, they became honest. Then they got the idea of my daughter Yunyun, thinking that they would coax her into marrying her in the future. Without her, my family property of the Xu family has also become theirs."
Thinking of her daughter who died young, she inevitably felt a little sad.
Shen Xinyan naturally also knew that she had a daughter with her ex-husband, but she died when she was very young, so she patted the back of her hand silently to comfort her.
Xu Su was sensitive to her kindness, and smiled at her to show that she was fine.
"Later, when Yunyun was gone, they started to think about adopting, heck, I really thought I was so blind that I couldn't see the greed in their eyes. Even if my things were thrown away, I would never It will be cheaper for those wolf-hearted things!"
"Fortunately, God has eyes and gave me Dundun. In this life, his surname is Xu, and he will only be surnamed Xu! His mother is me, and his father is also me!"
After the loud words were thrown out, Shen Xinyan fell silent.
After a while, she sighed lowly, and could no longer say any objection, she waved to Ziyan, motioning for her to hug the little guy.
Holding Dundun on his lap and sat down, he carefully looked at his facial features, seeing that he was born cute and looks like his own mother, besides, it gave her a different sense of familiarity.
"How? This fat boy looks like me, right? He looks like my son!" Xu Sumin's tone couldn't hide his pride.
This kid was born with a face very similar to her own, so she didn't need to say anything, and no one else could question that he was not Xu's flesh and blood.
"Son." After parroting his tongue, the little guy pursed his lips and smiled happily.
"Huh? Dundun actually has two small dimples." Shen Xinyan noticed with sharp eyes that when the little guy pursed his mouth, a small dimple jumped out mischievously on each side of the corner of his mouth.
Xu Sumin's eyes flickered again, fearing that she would think too much, she coaxed her son to call her aunt again.
"Auntie!" The little guy called loudly and obediently.
"Hey!" Shen Xinyan happily agreed, she didn't care about Liwo any more, she put her arms around him and patiently lured him to talk, listening to that soft voice, she really liked it so much.
Seeing this, Xu Sumin finally breathed a sigh of relief, only to feel that he was making a fuss out of a molehill in the next moment. Could it be that the only person in the world with prickly dimples
Shen Xinyan teased the little guy for a while, and then fed him a piece of soft and fragrant snack. Seeing that the little guy's head was moving, she personally placed him on the soft couch in the inner room, and told the girl to take good care of him. , Then he talked to Xu Sumin again.
"Back then, you left suddenly because you found out that you were pregnant?"
Xu Sumin smiled, but said generously: "Yes!"
Sure enough, she should have guessed it a long time ago! Shen Xinyan was stunned.
If it was conceived in the capital, does that mean the child's biological father... Then she dismissed the idea, not allowing herself to explore Dundun's life experience.
After hearing what Xu Sumin said, she knew how important this child was to her.
Xu Sumin urgently needs an heir, because she has no descendants, and because she has a large wealth that is enviable, she has long attracted the eyes of many people. Now that she has a son, at least she can block some people's thoughts .
Naturally, this child will also attract much attention at the same time, and there must be many people staring at him.
Since she didn't want to delve into it further, she naturally changed the subject, casually mentioned Brother Rong who had run away from home, and Xu Sumin asked somewhat uncertainly, "Brother Rong? But the son of your concubine sister? "
"It's him, do you recognize him?" Shen Xinyan was surprised.
"I've met him twice, but the two times I saw him, he was with your concubine sister, and that's why I knew they were mother and son. If it was him, I probably knew where he was."
"You know?" Shen Xinyan was even more surprised.
"I saw him on the pier on the way back to Beijing. At that time, he was moving goods to earn wages. At that time, I only thought his face was familiar, but I never doubted his identity. From this point of view, this kid is really A man with a bit of backbone, self-reliant and unwilling to depend on others." Xu Sumin admired it quite a bit.
"Earn wages for moving goods at the dock?" Shen Xinyan was surprised, but she never thought that such a pampered brother Rong would have such a side.
"That's right, it's the Nanwu Wharf not far from the capital. I also met him the day before yesterday. If you send someone there right now, if you're lucky, you can still find it. If you're not lucky, maybe he's already earned enough money." Got the money and left."
When Shen Xinyan heard this, she quickly ordered someone to go to Nanwu Wharf to find someone.
"Actually, it's good for a man to go out and run around, but is it possible that he can still rely on you for the rest of his life? Go out and make a run for it, maybe one day he will make a name for himself, and his back will be straighter in the future." Xu Sumin didn't think so.
"Look at what you said, is it possible that in the future you will be willing to let Dundun go outside alone?" Shen Xinyan glared at her angrily.
"There's nothing to be reluctant about. He can't compare with you guys from high families. If his fists aren't hard enough, his heart isn't hard enough, and he hasn't experienced enough wind and rain, how can he hold down those people in the hall in the future!"
"Our surname Xu doesn't care about the status, the comparison is whose fists are tough and whose methods are ruthless! I won't really treat you as the future head of the family just because your father was the head of the family."
"Not only won't you, but you will try every means to beat you to death, just because you are afraid that your life will be too long!"
Although Shen Xinyan has not experienced the bloody storm she mentioned, she also feels that a man has to stand up on his own, and relying on the shadow of his father's generation cannot last long.
However, Brother Rong is young after all, even if he wants to go out and make a living, he can't be completely away from his side!
When the sunset rose in the sky, Xu Sumin took her son who had already woken up and said goodbye.
Shen Xinyan personally sent her out of the hospital. Seeing the figure of the mother and son drifting away, a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.
She thought, it's good to have a child, even if it's not for family business, at least she can have someone to accompany her.
"Run so fast, don't cry if you fall and hurt." Xu Sumin's eyes were gentle, looking at her son who let go of her hand and rushed forward with a pair of short legs like a joy, reminded.
The little guy ran happily. If the two maids in charge of taking care of him hadn't had some fist skills, they might not have been able to catch up with him.
"Hey, where did this little guy come from?" Wei Junhang, who was returning from the outside, saw a small figure rushing towards him, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to hug him tightly. The child in his own house asked in surprise.
"This child, I told you not to run so fast! Grandpa, I haven't seen you for a few years, but Grandpa has become more and more like a Duke." Xu Sumin smiled and took his son over calmly. , to the maid behind her.
"It turned out to be Mrs. Xu. I really haven't seen him for several years. This... is Mrs. Xu's child?"
"Exactly!"
"It turns out that Madam is already married, but I'm being reckless. I just don't know if I should call you Madam Xu now, or..."
"It's still Mrs. Xu!" Xu Sumin didn't change her face, but she neither affirmed nor denied his "already married".
"So it's Mrs. Xu." Wei Junhang naturally thought that her husband's surname was also Xu.
Although most families in the world do not agree to intermarriage with the same surname, there are exceptions. The family style of the Xu family has always been strong, as long as they are not of the same clan, intermarriage with the same surname is not a big deal.
After a few words of politeness, the two left.
Xu Sumin let out a sigh of relief until he could no longer see Wei Junhang's figure.
She is sure that she can hide it from Shen Xinyan, but she is not sure that she can hide it from the Duke who always makes her feel a little unpredictable. Looking at her son who was still looking around restlessly in the maid's arms, she rubbed her forehead.
This kid, since he had a face like his own, why did he inherit his father's uncoordinated dimples in an unnecessary move. His father's pair, if you don't look carefully, you can't see it, this kid is good, just smile, and the pair of pear dimples will jump out to show off their power, isn't this adding trouble to people!
Just thinking like this, Dundun turned his face and showed her a sweet smile, which instantly softened her expression.
But the people who went to search for Brother Rong returned empty-handed in the end, Shen Xinyan sighed, and could only order to continue searching.
***
On the day Zhou Mao left Beijing, there was a drizzle in the sky, and the pedestrians on the road were either hurrying or strolling in the rain with umbrellas.
His face was thin, and his robe was a bit loose, which also showed that he was not having a good time these days.
"I'll leave everything in the house to you husband and wife. In the future, you two only need to live in peace and stability, so that you can bring up my unborn grandson. Don't bother with irrelevant matters." He calmly told the eldest son Husband and wife, seeing them nodding in agreement, he wanted to say something else, but he didn't know where to start.
"Father, you and mother should take care of yourself, the child is not filial, you can't..." Zhou Chang sobbed.
"Don't say such things again, your mother and I know your filial piety." Zhou Mao sighed.
"Brother, don't worry, my parents and I are here!" Zhou Zhuo patted his chest and assured his elder brother.
When they left Beijing this time, Zhou Mao and his wife took their second son with them, leaving the mansion in Beijing to the eldest son and his wife.
Zhou Chang told his younger brother a few words worriedly, and then asked with a little hesitation: "Awan..."
Zhou Mao lowered his eyes, and for a long time, he sighed and said: "Awan... I will leave it to you too. She has a lot of thoughts, if..."
If it was something, he didn't say it clearly, and Zhou Chang didn't ask either.
As soon as the father and son mentioned their daughter, Wen's on the side couldn't help crying.
Zhou Mao patted her on the back, comforted her silently for a while, and finally became cruel, and ordered: "Let's go!"
The carriage rumbled along in the rain, carrying the family of three away gradually. Zhou Chang subconsciously chased after a few steps and stopped again, staring blankly at the carriage melting into the rain little by little, and finally completely disappeared.
A family that used to be harmonious and happy is now separated from each other.
This time I left, and there was no return date.
