Mr. Zhu and Mr. Shen had been sitting in the yard chatting, and the old housekeeper was waiting on them the whole time. Not long after Lin Kun, Zhu Kunxue and his son, and Jingyao Chengcheng arrived at Mr. Zhu's small courtyard, Shen Congjun and Shen Jiabin also rushed back. Mr. Shen asked Shen Congjun and Shen Jiabin to meet Mr. Zhu. Mr. Zhu smiled and praised the two young men. Lin Kun met his grandfather, uncle and cousin, and then introduced Mr. Zhu to the nervous Zhu Kunxue and his son. , Zhu Kunxue paid his respects to Mr. Zhu and was so nervous that he couldn’t even speak properly. Zhu Dazhuo was usually very carefree, but this time he was even more nervous than his father.
Mr. Zhu laughed and said: "Kunxue, Dazhuo, my old man is not a monster. You don't have to be so nervous. You are all descendants of the Zhu family. I didn't pay much attention to you two before. You should come here often when you are free." , look at me, old man."
Zhu Kunxue was extremely grateful and pulled Zhu Dazhuo and said: "Thanks to uncle Da Zhuo's appreciation, Dazhuo and I will definitely work hard for the Zhu family, and we will definitely be grateful to uncle Da Zhuo and Lin Kun."
Lunch was eaten in Mr. Zhu's small courtyard. A group of people gathered together. It was originally very lively, but in front of Mr. Zhu and Mr. Shen, Shen Congjun and Shen Jiabin obviously couldn't let go, and Zhu Kunxue and his son were even more on pins and needles. , but even so, the father and son still looked excited.
As for Chengcheng, this little guy is a treasure. Mr. Zhu asked Chengcheng to sit next to him, and Mr. Shen asked Chengcheng to sit next to him. The two old men were both over eighty years old, and one was the Emperor of Yanjing. The head of one of the four major families in the city is the head of the Shen family in Jiangnan. When they fight, they are just like ordinary old men next door.
Finally, Chu Jingyao said doubtfully: "Grandpa, grandpa, why don't you let Chengcheng sit between you two?"
Only then did the two old men come to their senses. Yes, they were sitting next to each other. Wouldn't everything be fine if they sat next to them? But who knows, just after the two old men reached an agreement, However, Chengcheng disagreed and insisted on sitting between his parents. In the end, the two old men had to use all their skills. Mr. Zhu promised Chengcheng that the Zhu family would be his in the future. Mr. Shen naturally did not Fa promised that the Shen family belonged to Chengcheng, but he said that as long as Chengcheng wanted to spend money, he could come to Grandpa anytime and anywhere, and even gold and silver would be given to him.
After all, Chengcheng's understanding of the adult world is limited. The little guy finally said something that made everyone laugh: "Grandpa, grandpa, I don't want any of the things you mentioned. I just want two lollipops." Milk and strawberry flavored..."
This meal was a pleasant one, and everyone present was not considered an outsider. As for Zhu Kunxue and his son, Mr. Zhu didn't know much about it, but no matter what he said today, I believe that the father and son would be tight-lipped and would never make it known easily.
Mr. Zhu looked at Lin Kun and said: "Kunzi, tomorrow I will ask your Uncle Guan to issue an announcement to inform all the major families in Yanjing Imperial City that our Zhu family is going to change owners. According to past customs, the change of ownership is There needs to be a ceremony, but you still need a ceremony to recognize your ancestors and return to your clan, otherwise the ceremony of changing owners will be completely ruined. The Zhu family is not convinced. There is one thing I want to discuss with you, which is the issue of your surname. Normally After you recognize your ancestors and return to the clan, you have to change your surname back to Zhu. According to our Zhu family’s hierarchy, you should be called Zhu Zhengkun. Grandpa doesn’t know what your intentions are?"
Lin Kun said: "Grandpa, it is reasonable to change your surname, but my grandfather who slept at the foot of the northeastern hillside raised me from childhood to adulthood. These years have been ups and downs. Although life is not easy, he has never been
I was not left hungry or cold,
If I change my surname now, I will never have the shame to go back and kneel before his grave in the future. Of course, it is impossible for me not to change my surname forever. I want to wait until I enter the loess a hundred years ago to officially change my name to Zhu Zhengkun and include it in the ancestral home of the Zhu family.
Ancestral hall.”
"this……"
Mr. Zhu hesitated and looked at Mr. Shen, "Mr. Shen, do you think what Kunzi said makes sense?"
Mr. Shen smiled and said: "The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring. My grandson is a flesh-and-blood person who knows how to be grateful. He has not forgotten the poor grandfather who raised him because of your glorious and wealthy grandfather. Old guy, you
Does it make sense?"
Mr. Zhu said with a smile: "Well, since the child has his own ideas, I won't force him. It's just that Chengcheng will change his surname to our Zhu family in the future." As he said that, he looked at Chu Jingyao,
"My granddaughter-in-law, do you have any objection to this?"
Chu Jingyao said: "Chengcheng is the root of the Zhu family, so naturally he has to take the Zhu family's surname. I have no objection, grandpa."
Mr. Zhu smiled and said: "Okay, but there is no rush in this matter. It will not be too late to discuss it before Chengcheng turns eighteen."
It will be three days after recognizing the ancestor and returning to the clan, and another three days after the official change of ownership. At that time, Mr. Zhu will personally invite Chu Xiangguo to come. The background is the in-laws, Lin Kun's parents are gone, and he, the grandfather, will come forward.
After the meal, Mr. Zhu and Mr. Shen left Jingyao alone and said they had something to discuss with her. Even when Lin Kun asked what the matter was, the two old men did not say anything.
Lin Kun took Cheng Cheng, Zhu Kunxue and his son, Shen Congjun, and Shen Jiabin to his small courtyard. In Mr. Zhu's small courtyard, Mr. Zhu and Mr. Shen looked at each other and seemed a little difficult to speak. The two of them pushed back for a long time.
In the end, it was Jingyao who spoke.
Chu Jingyao smiled and said: "Grandpa, grandpa, if I guessed correctly, you should have persuaded me not to hold a wedding with Lin Kun now by keeping me here, right? Lin Kun first recognized his ancestor and returned to the clan, and then Zhu Jiayi
Lord, the next logical thing is to hold a wedding with me, and then I will officially move into the Zhu family."
The expressions on the faces of Mr. Zhu and Mr. Shen were surprised at the same time, "Jingyao, you, you know?"
Chu Jingyao said with a smile: "Lin Kun has just inherited the identity of the head of the family, so he must need help from the outside world. Among them, the Song family and the Zhang family are big helpers. Xinyi likes Kunzi, and the same goes for Xiaoya. If Kun and I
If my wife gets married soon, it will make the Song family and the Zhang family look bad, which will reduce the amount of help they can provide to Lin Kun. Grandpa and grandpa have good intentions, and I can understand all of this..."
The expressions on the faces of Mr. Zhu and Mr. Shen were even more surprised. They were silent for a long time before Mr. Zhu spoke, with excitement and joy on his face, "Jingyao, no matter whether you agree with our opinions or not, but you can see in advance
Grandpa is really happy that he has found a way out of this. Kunzi has found a good wife who is virtuous and wise. You will definitely be his backing in the future and help him support the Zhu family!"
Mr. Shen was also very excited, but his words were full of guilt, "Jingyao, this matter has wronged you after all. We two old guys consider the overall situation and hope you won't be angry with us. Of course, both of us are also guilty."
Okay, finally we have to recruit
I want to ask your opinion. Since you left Chengcheng for our Shen family and Zhu family, this is the greatest contribution. As long as you don't agree, after the wedding is passed on to the head of the family, immediately invite Shao Puyang, the first master of Yishu in Yanjing.
