When Lin Haoming was thinking, the old woman continued to lament: "I have been looking for someone who can take care of the child, but she is born with such a nature. How can a good man be willing to take care of her? She has a background of the Yang family and the Lin family since she was a child, so she has nothing to worry about.
I'm afraid that something will happen to her in the future. For my brother's sake, I will still take care of her. If I'm not here, I may not be able to take care of her after a long time, especially if I repeatedly trouble people, then..." The old woman said this really
I can't say any more.
Lin Haoming felt that he seemed to have gotten into trouble. If he had known this, he would have refused.
At this time, the old woman calmed down and continued: "I have been observing you during this period. You have achieved more than that, and you are also calm-minded. I originally expected her to settle down. Although she had a bad reputation before,
If you can change your ways, I think you should be able to forgive me, but unfortunately your nature is hard to change. Haoming, you should be going to Willow Branch City in the future, right?" The old woman suddenly changed the subject.
"Indeed!" Lin Haoming replied honestly.
"Yuxuan won't accompany you and will stay here." The old woman said with certainty.
"We didn't talk about this!" Lin Haoming said.
"She already told me just now, and..." There were some words that the old woman really couldn't say anymore.
"Mother-in-law, just tell me if you have any questions." Lin Haoming said softly.
Seeing Lin Haoming being so frank, the old woman said: "She married you and gave you a bad reputation, but she failed to fulfill her obligations as a wife. This is my problem, so in exchange for you taking care of her in the future,
I will also compensate you, Dongxue, come here." The old woman suddenly said to the maid beside her.
Lin Haoming looked at the maid and couldn't help but be a little surprised. Could this old woman want to give the maid to him?
"Dongxue is a child I adopted more than a hundred years ago. That day when I was traveling, I met this girl who was abandoned in the snow, so I took her back. At that time, Yuxuan's incident gave me a headache, so I
I just kept her by my side, and although she has always been my maid, she is no different from my daughter in my eyes."
"Mother-in-law, what are you doing?"
"Yuxuan can't take care of you, so I plan to give her to you. If Yuxuan can't be your wife, I'll let Dongxue take her place. In this way, I won't feel I owe you too much." The old woman sighed.
Lin Haoming looked at the maid named Dongxue, but he also had an indescribable feeling in his heart. He looked at her and asked: "Mother-in-law has decided this way. Miss Dongxue doesn't know whether she is willing or not. After all, if she follows me like this, at most
She is considered a concubine, even if I marry her in the future, she will only be a concubine."
"I will let the old lady make the decision in everything." Dongxue responded with certainty.
Hearing this, Lin Haoming knew that the two people might have communicated about this matter, and for Dongxue, it might not be a bad thing to follow him.
Sure enough, the old woman quickly said: "Haoming, in fact, this matter is not a bad thing for Dongxue. I am alive and I can take care of her. After I go, many people in the Yang family will stare at her. I
I don’t want her to know that she was snatched away by that young man in the future. With such a tone, it is better to let her follow you. If you really like her, just treat her well in the future. Dongxue will definitely fulfill the responsibility that Yuxuan cannot.
"
"I understand!" Lin Haoming realized what the old woman was thinking and agreed.
"That makes me feel at ease. I'll ask Dongxue to prepare in a moment and let her go with you." The old woman said with some reluctance.
"There's no need to be in such a hurry, I won't leave until more than a month later." Lin Haoming signaled.
"It won't be necessary for a few days. When you leave later, ask Dongxue to follow you." The old woman said simply.
Seeing this, Lin Haoming no longer refused, and Dong Xue didn't say anything more and went straight to clean up.
When it was getting dark, Yuxuan finally came back, along with her brother, sister-in-law and sister.
Lin Haoming has already met these people. Her brother looks to be in his fifties or sixties, with average qualifications after all, while her sister is even more gray-haired and looks older than the old woman. It is obvious that she may be older than the old woman.
Life span is exhausted in one step.
The meal when we returned home was extremely peaceful, as if we were all eating together just to fulfill this rule.
After eating, Lin Haoming saw that the eldest brother ran to his mother's room and said something to her. Lin Haoming listened attentively and realized that it was because he learned that the old lady was going to give Dongxue to Lin Haoming, and he was a little angry. Obviously
He had fallen in love with Dongxue early in the morning, but the old lady still had status, so she scolded her for a while, and finally he got so angry that he just slapped his butt and left.
When Lin Haoming returned, Yu Xuan also watched Dong Xue get on the carriage together, with a half-smile expression on her lips.
After the carriage left Yang's house, she deliberately sat next to Lin Haoming, put a hand on Lin Haoming's shoulder and asked, "Sir, how did you trick Dongxue away from my mother?"
"Mother-in-law knew that I was going to Willow City and you had to stay here. She was afraid that no one would take care of me, so she sent Dongxue to me." Lin Haoming said.
"I asked why my brother is so angry. You are really capable. My mother has valued Dongxue more than me these years. Husband, how about we make a deal?" Yang Yuxuan suddenly had an idea and asked with a smile.
road.
"What deal?" Lin Haoming asked.
"Starting today, I will fulfill my obligations as a wife. You lend me Dongxue for a month. After one month, when you go to Willow Branch City, I will..."
Before Yang Yuxuan finished speaking, Lin Haoming suddenly grabbed her and said: "I have seen prodigal girls, but I have never seen you like this. Your mother tried her best to protect you, but you have no brains. I promised you before.
What’s yours, I’ll live mine.”
"I'm just discussing with you. It's necessary for you to be so nervous. You're just a maid." Yang Yuxuan was startled by Lin Haoming's sudden appearance. When Lin Haoming relaxed, she muttered disdainfully.
After she finished speaking, she felt embarrassed again, and suddenly patted the car and said to the driver: "Stop the car, I want to get off!"
Lin Haoming watched her jump off the carriage and disappear into the night.
After she left, Dongxue suddenly said to Lin Haoming: "Uncle, thank you."
"Do you know where she is going to take you?" Lin Haoming clearly guessed something from these words.
Dongxue hesitated for a moment but finally said nothing.
"If you don't want to say it, forget it. I'll be leaving here soon anyway." Lin Haoming could see that she roughly knew, but just didn't want to say it, so she stopped asking.
"Thank you, uncle!" Dong Xue thanked him again, looking at Lin Haoming with a look that seemed a little complicated.
