Chapter 507: A loyal minister and a filial son always want to do some fancy things
Dong Min was very good at talking and brought some homemade meals for Dong’s mother to eat.
The old woman was coaxed until her face was filled with smiles.
Mother and son were talking.
As they talked, under Dong Min's conscious guidance, the topic returned to the past, and he began to miss the past days.
Among the topics the two talked about were Dong Min's father who died early, his brother who died early, and Dong Zhuo's son who died early.
When people get old, what they like most is to recall the past and chatter about the past with their children and grandchildren.
Even if I have said these things many times, I will never get tired of them or say them enough.
The old woman was chattering here, and Dong Min was accompanying her.
But it’s more about listening.
After talking like this for a while, the old lady couldn't help but shed tears.
She said that her husband, eldest son and grandchildren had a hard life and died early.
I haven't seen the good days like today.
If I could see the good days now, I would definitely smile.
After talking like this for a while, the old woman began to blame herself again.
It's all my fault, I've lived too long and am too old.
He absorbed the blessings and longevity of his children and grandchildren.
Let your husband, children and grandchildren shorten their lives.
Hearing what his mother said, Dong Min quickly spoke out to comfort his mother, saying that children and grandchildren will have their own blessings.
That's because they are not blessed enough to blame their mother or anything like that.
Dong Min persuaded the old woman for a long time before finally persuading her.
After persuading the old woman, Dong Min shed tears.
"My son, why are you crying? But what kind of injustice have you suffered? Or is it that the money in your hand is not enough?
Your second brother gave me a lot of money and cloth, but I can't even spend it in my hands.
Your second brother can make money now, but he can't afford this.
If you are in trouble, I will give you some..."
Dong's mother panicked when she saw her son crying.
Saying such comforting questions is just like how my son did when he was a child.
Dong Min shook his head and sobbed: "Mom, my child is so old, how can I ask you for money?
The second brother led the Dong family, and they were prosperous. The child followed the second brother, and there was no shortage of money in his hands..."
"Then what kind of bullying did you suffer?"
The old woman asked again.
Dong Min said: "Second brother is now the Grand Master of the Han Dynasty, with all the power in the world, and my son is also a general of the left. No one has the courage to inflict this on me..."
Hearing Dong Min say this, Dong's mother seemed a little confused.
You don’t have to worry about food and clothing, you have money to spend, and you haven’t suffered any injustice. Why do you start crying?
Dong Min shed tears for a while and said: "My child thought of my Dong family, Ding Buwang, and couldn't help but feel sad for a while.
My mother gave birth to three brothers, but only one of them had any children.
The eldest brother passed away early.
The second brother's son passed away early.
Although there are daughters and granddaughters left behind, they have all grown up and married, and are no longer members of my Dong family...
My Dong family has a great business and should have been prosperous, but now..."
Hearing what Dong Min said, the old woman couldn't help but feel sad.
When people get old, the most favorite thing to see is a family full of children and grandchildren.
"You two brothers, bring in some more concubines.
Have more children.
We are not short of food and clothing now, and if we bring in more concubines, we can afford them..."
Dong Min, who was crying there, couldn't help but feel stunned when he heard his mother's words.
What situation is this?
How come this is completely different from what I thought!
Why are my mother's reactions and thoughts so strange?
For the sake of what he has said, shouldn't his mother allow him to adopt a son to his elder brother and give him a son to support him in his old age?
Why did he say this right away and actually ask his two brothers to have more concubines and have more children?
"Auntie, my brother and my son are getting older. They are no longer young people, and their hair is starting to turn gray.
At this time, how can you take concubines on a large scale without making people laugh?
Moreover, my brother has taken many concubines over the years, and as a result, he has no heirs..."
Dong Min wiped his tears and said this.
The old woman said: "It is right to have more concubines. Who knows when I will be able to get pregnant?"
Dong Min talked with his mother for a while and found that his mother had never thought of having a step-heir.
He immediately stopped hesitating and said, "Auntie, this is too slow.
Not to mention that my brother has had no concubines and no heirs over the years.
Even if you take a concubine at this time and you are really pregnant, how many years will it take until you give birth and grow up?
We brothers, I'm afraid we can't afford to wait..."
Hearing this, the old woman sighed and nodded, expressing her agreement with her son's words.
Dong Min said: "The child has three sons. I think so, why not give up two sons and adopt them out.
One is adopted in the name of the eldest brother, the other is adopted in the name of the second brother, and the other child is kept for him to provide for himself until he is old.
In this case, we three brothers, after a hundred years, we will all have heirs who will provide us with blood and food, and we will have successors.
The incense between the three brothers will not be cut off..."
Dong Min had been laying the groundwork for a long time, and now he finally showed his fangs.
revealed his true purpose.
This is what he thought of.
At this time, he had already seen that his brother seemed to intend to give the Dong family's inheritance to that thief named Liu Cheng.
And my brother has always been stronger.
He was worried that even if he could convince his mother to speak for him and put pressure on his brother later, his brother would not agree.
It will mess up things and make them look ugly.
So after thinking about it, I came up with this compromise method.
A method full of warmth and affection.
That would mean that he would suffer a big loss and adopt his two sons directly.
To the eldest brother and second brother respectively.
In this way, you can appear not to be deliberate and show your sincerity.
Since then, covered by things like family affection, filial piety, and the like, some things have become less obvious and less dazzling.
After adopting his son to his elder brother, needless to say, everything else became logical.
Under such circumstances, the adopted son is truly adopted as his biological son.
He also has the right of inheritance.
My second brother has an heir to the Dong family, so naturally, there is no reason to let a person with a foreign surname inherit the Dong family's foundation!
Liu Cheng, the thief with bad intentions, can only want to eat shit!
After all, this guy just has a foreign surname and is just a lackey of their Dong family!
Sure enough, when Dong Min spoke and the old woman understood what he meant, she couldn't help but smile.
"You are really thoughtful. You are thinking about the Dong family and your brothers."
When the old woman said this, she seemed very emotional.
Looking at the son in front of me, I feel more and more pleasing to the eye.
There is a saying that goes, 'The big one is rare, the small one is delicate, and the middle one is a doormat.'
It means that the eldest child in the family is generally rare because he is the first child of his parents.
The youngest one is considered to be the youngest and is generally rarer.
The one in the middle is more miserable.
Not much loved.
Although I can't say it's completely correct, there is generally no problem.
As Dong Min is the youngest son of the old lady, the old lady really likes him.
Over the years, Dong Zhuo often went out to lead troops, fight, and garrison. Dong's mother had the most contact with Dong Min.
Until now, Dong Min has been visiting Dong's mother longer and more frequently than Dong Zhuo.
After all, Dong Zhuo has many more things to deal with than Dong Min.
At this time, when I heard that my youngest son actually considered for the Dong family and his two elder brothers, he did not hesitate to give up his two children, I felt even more satisfied with my youngest son.
He nodded immediately and said: "You have thought well, you can't really let your brother lose his roots.
I will discuss this matter with your second brother when he comes over to see what he means."
Hearing his mother say this, Dong Min felt happy and felt that his goal had finally been achieved.
This matter is basically worry-free.
My second brother, no matter how great he looks outside, he is still just a child in front of his mother!
Very filial.
If he had to say this to himself, he might refuse, but if his mother had to say it, he would never have any room to refuse.
Not to mention, in order to make things succeed, I even pulled out my eldest brother who had been dead for many years...
Dong Min wiped his tears and sighed again, looking very sad.
Mother Dong said: "Why is my son still sighing?"
Dong Min said: "After such a move was made, some people must have criticized him later, saying that he wanted to take over all three branches of the Dong family and that he had all kinds of evil thoughts."
Dong's mother laughed when she heard this and said: "My son, there is no need to worry about this matter. We can't control it when others talk.
No matter how you do something, someone will make irresponsible remarks about it, but can we not do it because of this?
It can't.
Because even if you don't do anything because of these, those people will still make all kinds of irresponsible remarks about you.
Don’t be afraid of what others will say about you. As long as your heart is good and your body is upright, don’t be afraid of slanted shadows. Just do what you want to do and don’t pay attention to what others say..."
Hearing this, Dong Min's face seemed a little more relaxed and he said, "When mother says this, the child feels much more at ease..."
He is indeed much more at ease in his heart.
After all, he said these words first, which was equivalent to blocking these words between the key people.
Leaves you speechless...
Dong Min was here again, chatting with Mother Dong for a long time, during which time he washed Mother Dong's feet himself.
He waited until Dong's mother, who was exhausted, fell asleep, and then left here and returned to her own residence.
On the way back, Dong Min's mood was just like that of his son Dong Huang, almost taking off.
The matter was completed very smoothly. From now on, I will wait for my son to inherit the Dong family's legacy!
He is confident that he will definitely be able to see that day.
After all, I am several years younger than my stupid brother, and I am in better physical condition than him. It is certain that my brother will die before me.
When the time comes, it may not be possible to stabilize the overall situation just by relying on his own son.
However, with his own help, Huang'er, who has become the second brother's stepson, will have no problem stabilizing the situation.
With this thought in mind, he turned his gaze in the direction of the palace.
There was a flash of enthusiasm in his eyes.
My brother seems to be very excessive and domineering when he does things.
But, in my opinion, it still tastes bad.
Now my brother has strong soldiers and horses, and no one in the world dares to stand in his way.
Under such circumstances, he only dared to be a grand master, but he did not dare to go further.
Dong Min feels that at this moment, he can take another bold step forward!
It would be great to depose the emperor and become the emperor yourself.
In this way, those people can no longer come to Guanzhong to fight under the banner of protecting the emperor.
If my brother doesn't dare to do this, then when the time comes and his son inherits the inheritance, he will let his son do it.
If your son becomes the emperor, then you will be the living emperor!
But time, once that day was taken care of, the Dong family reached its peak in the hands of his son and himself.
With this thought in his mind, Dong Min felt a little wary.
He thought of something again and quickly wrote it down in his mind, reminding himself that he must not forget it.
That is, before the time comes to deal with Liu Xie, the emperor, he must be given more concubines, and he must be made a queen.
Queens and concubines must look for that kind of stunning beauty to do the job.
When the time comes to depose the emperor, and after that is resolved, keep these queens and concubines.
Then, he will be able to live a life that is more carefree than the emperor...
Thinking about this matter in your heart makes you feel excited!
This guy looks serious, but in his heart he always wants to have some fun.
Not long ago, he said in front of Dong's mother that he was old, but now it seems that it is all nonsense.
Not only is he not old, but he is still incredibly young!
…
Dong Min had not been away from Mother Dong for too long, and Dong Zhuo was carried all the way to Mother Dong.
Dong Zhuo didn't walk much on weekdays, but after he came to Mother Dong's place, he still asked someone to put down the carriage, got down, and walked towards Mother Dong's bedroom.
When they came to the bedroom, a maid whispered to Dong Zhuo that Dong Zhuo's mother was sleeping.
Dong Zhuo stopped going inside.
After waiting at the door for a while, seeing that his mother still showed no intention of waking up, he immediately stood at the door, bowed silently to his mother, turned around and left quietly.
Although the situation has stabilized now, he still has a lot of things to do.
Dong Yue and Li Jue were both fighting and confronting each other.
Kede was there in Liangzhou, and now that the sure news of success had come, there was no need for him to worry.
But these two places are not the same. Without a figure like Kede in charge, it always makes me feel at ease.
Dong Zhuo got on the carriage and left Dong's mother's residence.
Not far away, someone suddenly ran up from behind and shouted to Dong Zhuo to stop and tell Dong Zhuo to go slowly...
