Traveling through life as a widow: six sons to support her in her old age

Chapter 242: Stealing my daughter, shameless

"Yu Zian, do you have any shame? Why do you want to steal my daughter?"

Yu Zi'an Cong ignored him and said, "Yan'er, Yan'er, look, I got you a daughter."

Gu Zisu giggled in his arms, hugging Yu Zian's neck excitedly, "Fly high, fly high."

Lan Qiyan turned his head, looked at the one in his arms, and then looked at the one in Yu Zian's arms. How did this guy learn to snatch children?

Gu Rufeng ran over breathlessly, "Do you have any shame? If you want a daughter, go give birth to her yourself, don't steal her from me."

"You stingy guy, what's wrong with me hugging you? Why can't I hug you? We've been friends for so many years, and look at you, you react so strongly."

Gu Rufeng grabbed his daughter and said, "This is my daughter. It's useless for you to say anything."

Yu Zian shook his head, "Is it really so good to have a daughter?"

"You don't. If you really had a daughter of your own, I tell you, you wouldn't be willing to bring her out. I brought her out specially to welcome you back to Beijing. Otherwise, no one would have the chance to see my daughter."

Yu Zian looked at Lan Qiyan with resentment. He also wanted a daughter, but what should he do if someone was unwilling to give her to him?

Lan Qiyan coaxed the little princess to sleep, then held Gu Zisu in his arms and teased her for a while, "Rufeng, where is your wife?"

Gu Rufeng's face actually blushed, "Nannan is pregnant again, and is now staying at home to take care of the baby."

Lan Qiyan couldn't believe it. How could his daughter be pregnant again when she was only two years old?

Can't you wait to get pregnant?

"Gu Rufeng, you are very productive. Can't you wait two years before having the baby?"

"My wife wants a child. I told her to wait and see, but... um..."

Yu Zian directly covered his mouth. How could this person not have any self-control at all and tell everything out loud?

Lan Qiyan shook her head. She didn’t understand why she was in such a hurry to have a child. Although she wouldn’t have to worry about raising him, the least she could do was to take good care of his health.

Yu Ze wanted to say something but stopped himself. Lan Qiyan made a hushing gesture to him, saying that since the children were around, it was better not to say some things.

"Where's Ayihan?"

"Mother, the princess is in the palace, chatting with the queen mother."

"Is your mother free?"

Yulin looked at his eldest brother and said, "It's to discuss your marriage. As a princess of the Western Regions, Ayihan will marry out of my mother's palace. My mother said that she will wait for you to come back and rest for a night, and then enter the palace tomorrow."

Lan Qiyan looked at Yuze, "My dear, do you want to get married now?"

Yuze's ears turned red, "Mom, I didn't follow your rules."

Lan Qiyan waved his hand, "That's fine. It still depends on your wishes. In that case, when I come back from the palace tomorrow, I will go find your biological father. If you get married, I will give the betrothal gift and he will also go. And your biological mother, she will also express her gratitude."

"Mom, my father's family seems to be quite poor. If we have to pay, we might have to use Xinlan's mother's dowry. My mother's family is even poorer. They can hardly afford to eat."

Lan Qiyan is a good guy. She has only been gone for two years, why are they all so poor?

"Where is the money? Where did it go?"

Yuze pushed Yuzhen and Yumian out and said, "You two can talk. I don't want to talk about them."

Yu Zhen touched his nose and said, "Let me tell you about my good-for-nothing father. In order to woo Xin Lan Niang, he gave her either jewelry or clothes, or pearls or gems, and then he spent all his savings in a month.

Then Xinlan's mother felt sorry for the money, so she took the things to get a refund, only to find out that the store where my father bought the things had closed down, and all the things inside were fake.

Later, Uncle Gu investigated and found out that it was a fake store designed to defraud wealthy people. My father was their only customer that year, and he managed to support the store by his own efforts.

Later, my father took his machete and captured the man, but the money had been spent, so my father beat the man up and sent him to jail.

Then, this poor man shamelessly complained to Aunt Xinlan every day, and finally Aunt Xinlan had no choice but to marry him, and my father didn't even pay a penny for the betrothal gift.

His monthly salary is all used to support the family, so mother, we have to earn the betrothal gifts ourselves, don’t you think it’s pitiful?”

Lan Qiyan was speechless, "Where's your mother?"

Yu Qi cleared his throat and said, "Jiang Xiao keeps a mistress, Jiang Yi gambles, and Jiang Qi spends money lavishly. She didn't touch her dowry in the Xie family for more than ten years, but after two years in the Jiang family, there was nothing left."

Lan Qiyan now believes that double the odds are good. Having such stupid parents give birth to three outstanding and intelligent sons is truly a blessing in disguise.

"I have nothing to say to your biological parents. Don't worry about the betrothal gift. I will take care of it."

"Mom, Ayihan wants you to help her choose a Han Chinese name."

"What does she want?"

"I want your last name."

"Well, I'll think of a few tonight and let her choose later. Well, I'm hungry. When are we going to have dinner?"

"Mom, dinner will be served soon. Let's go to the front hall." Yu Ze said as he told Chuntao and the others to prepare for the meal.

Gu Rufeng threw the child directly to Lan Qiyan, and he and Yu Zian took Li Feng and the others out for a drink.

In the Qingyou Courtyard of the Gu Mansion, a woman was lying on the bed, her delicate face flushed, and her hair was wet with sweat from drinking too quickly. "I don't want to drink anymore, I don't want to drink anymore, it's too hard to drink."

The maid was so anxious that she almost cried, "Madam, please forgive me for being so nosy, but you shouldn't be so anxious to have this baby."

"Ping'er, you don't understand."

"How could I not understand? The master has no parents, no brothers or sisters, and the mistress is the only one in charge of the family. Life is so easy. Why do you force yourself like this?"

"Ping'er, what do you think of the master?"

"He is an honest official, upright, handsome, and loves his wife very much."

"You see, if you think it's good, then others will think it's good too. Some people have already wanted to do him a favor. I can't let my husband's offspring wither. Although he loves Shisu very much, he wants a boy more, right?"

"But you've worked so hard, ma'am."

"Look, I forgot, where is my Sue?"

"General Yu and Madam Lan are back in Beijing today, and the master is carrying the young lady out."

"That's good. She'd be too lonely if she were alone. The Lan Mansion is lively. I'm sure she'd like it."

"Ma'am, don't worry. The master loves you so much that no one else will show up."

"The human heart is unpredictable, Ping'er. Mother has heard this before, but where did father's concubines come from? If mother had not given birth to my three brothers, how could she have stood firm in the Li family?

Bring me the medicine. This is a secret recipe my mother gave me specially. I cannot let her down."

"Hey, ma'am, I brought the candied fruit."
