Like an unreasonable old lady, Gu Qingling asked directly: "I just want to ask you. I want to find a godfather for Brother Can, can't I?"
"It's not impossible, it's just... Mr. Zhao is too young..." Uncle Yao's voice became softer after being scolded by Gu Qingling.
"What's wrong with him being young? He can't be a father to Brother Can because he's young? Brother Can is not as old as Brother Hong, so what's wrong with him accepting a younger man as his father? What's the problem? Do you really want to admit it?
A man in his 70s or 80s who may die before he grows up will be the father of an old man?" Gu Qingling stared at Uncle Yao angrily, "Then when the time comes, when I am gone, won't Brother Can be the father again?
I have become a child without a father and a mother, so what kind of father should I recognize? Do I recognize someone who is lonely?"
Uncle Yao was immediately speechless.
If his mother's purpose in choosing a godfather for Brother Can is to hope that one day she will be gone and he will still have an elder around, it would indeed be safer to choose someone younger.
Seeing that Uncle Yao was weak, Gu Qingling continued: "What, you have nothing to say? Now do you still think your face is more important, or Brother Can?"
"But...you don't have to recognize Mr. Zhao. There are so many people in the clan, I can find someone with a higher status..." Uncle Yao struggled stubbornly, trying to find a way out for himself.
Gu Qingling rolled her eyes at him: "What do I want to do as a godfather? I want to find a strong godfather for Brother Can so that I can make plans for his future. It's better for you to leave the godfather who is strong and good-looking.
, I have to choose one from the clan... How many of those people in the clan can compare to Mr. Zhao?"
"Why can't I compare? Isn't it just that... he's not as good-looking as Mr. Zhao." Even Uncle Yao couldn't deny Li Wenchong's good looks.
In all his life, he has never seen many men as good-looking as him.
Gu Qingling glared at him: "I think you need to go back and wash your eyes. After staying in the capital for so long and practicing your eyesight for so long, you don't even have this ability. I don't know what you are doing on the good side. Don't be offended.
You don’t even know who he is, right?”
I was too lazy to talk to Uncle Yao anymore, so I asked him to go back and ask Mr. Yao whether Li Wenchong was an ordinary businessman.
They didn’t say it, but you can’t be so brainless, right?
Everyone in the room was kicked out angrily. Uncle Yao was still a little unhappy. He pointed at Mr. Yao and asked, "I was just talking to dad over there. Why don't you help me? This is my business alone."
Is this? This is a matter for the entire Yao family, don’t you agree with it? Why, you dare to say you disagree in front of me, but you don’t dare to say it in front of me? "
"Brother, I just pulled you. The point of pulling you is that you don't have to rush to talk about it. There are some things that we haven't explained clearly yet..." Naturally, Mr. Yao couldn't pull Mrs. Yao out, so he only talked about himself.
I went back yesterday and thought about it carefully, why did my mother want Brother Zhao to be Brother Can’s godfather?
Balabala told Uncle Yao what Mrs. Yao had analyzed.
Uncle Yao was stunned: "So, that Mr. Zhao... his identity is really not simple?"
Second Master Yao nodded: "Although Brother Zhao didn't say it himself, I am sure that no ordinary businessman can afford such a powerful boy. Also, the martial arts master he introduced to me... Brother, are you really
We should meet first and then talk."
Uncle Yao pondered for a moment: "Okay, I'll see you first."
Mrs. Yao on the side was afraid that her man would quarrel with Mr. Yao, but after a while, she saw that her man was "persuaded" by the other party.
I don't know why, but I feel a little uncomfortable.
When they were in the capital, although they looked up at people in the capital, they were powerful people in the capital, so it was appropriate to look up. When they returned to a small place like Jinling, there was no need for that, right?
Especially Mr. Yao, he is just a playboy who has accomplished nothing...
Mrs. Yao couldn't help but tightened the handkerchief in her hand, and felt a little aggrieved for Mr. Yao. However, now at the gate of Old Mrs. Gu Qingling's courtyard, people from all the rooms and courtyards were looking at her. There were so many pairs of eyes staring at her.
She couldn't say anything, so she could only endure it.
Uncle Yao wanted to go with Mr. Yao to meet someone, and Mr. Yao was accompanying him. The female relatives in each room said a few polite words, and Mrs. Yao refused the idea of visiting Mr. Yao on the grounds that the yard had not been tidied up yet.
Madam, Madam Yao San, raised her chin slightly and left with Yao Anxin.
When they were outside, Qiu He, the eldest maid beside Mrs. Yao, did not dare to say anything. When she returned to the house, she apologized for Mrs. Yao's grievances: "Really, what's going on with this eldest lady? Why hasn't she come back for so long?"
Jinling, are you starting to look at people with your nostrils? I haven’t even become a high official yet..."
"Although he has not yet become a high official, he is in the Hanlin Academy, and his sister-in-law holds the Baixiang Pavilion in the capital, making friends with the powerful people in the capital. She also wants to marry Sister Xin to the capital. She has ambitions and vision.
A little higher is normal." Mrs. Yao Er said.
"Madam, this servant is complaining for you."
"Some things are indeed incomparable, and there's nothing we can do about it. Besides, don't I have Brother Hong?" Mrs. Yao Er raised her chin, her face full of pride.
She can't look forward to Mr. Yao, and she doesn't look forward to it either, but she has Yao Anhong.
As Yao Anhong grew older, he gradually became more prominent in his family's studies. If the old lady hadn't thought that he was still young and wanted to polish his skills more, he would have ended up at any time.
On the other side, Mrs. Yao returned to the courtyard, the smile on her face faded, and she asked the servant who was waiting to get out.
Yao Anxin didn't react at first. It wasn't until Mrs. Yao opened her mouth and asked her nakedly about the situation of the second room, and revealed some things in her words, that Yao Anxin suddenly reacted.
She was a little shocked, she had no idea when her mother would become like this.
Since when did her mother look down on her second wife?
It is true that the second uncle has no fame and no more studies, but he has been working hard to practice martial arts for so many years. He is not the "second ancestor" her mother said, okay?
Also, wasn’t it the second uncle, third uncle and the others who had to do so many errands and show off for the old lady?
Not only were there no mistakes in these things, but they were also done beautifully. Isn’t this also a kind of skill?
Yao Anxin wanted to open her mouth several times, but was interrupted by Mrs. Yao.
"Okay, stop talking. I know what you mean. Let me tell you, you just stay in small places too much and don't go to big places. If you see less, your horizons will be narrowed..." Mrs. Yao slightly said
He complained, "When I went to the capital, I wanted to take you away with me, but the old lady didn't agree. Unless there were too many powerful people there, you would have to bow down to others when you go, so it would be better to relax in Jinling. As a result, people
Korematsu is so happy, but you don’t even know what’s going on outside. You’re not young anymore, and you’re going to see someone again soon. I don’t know how his wife will like you when she sees you..."
Mr. Yao's tone showed a bit of sadness.
Yao Anxin: "..."
No, I don't want to go into those messy yards!
Even though I was not in the capital, the old lady still told me about the powerful people in the capital and the people in each backyard.
If there are many women in the backyard, which family will not suffer the death of several children and women?
In a backyard like that, no matter how nice the man was outside, she wouldn't want to enter.
