Chapter 252 How to solve this problem?
Lu Yao said goodbye to Zhou Chengxi and walked slowly down the street after coming out of the county government office with a heavy heart.
Soon she heard someone calling her from the front, and when she looked up, she saw the gorgeous carriage again.
In the car, Song Yanyi waved to her happily. It was her that he called.
"Yan Yi, why are you here?" Lu Yao walked over in surprise.
From this distance, it was clear that Song Yanyi was waiting for her.
"I went to eat chicken to find you. I heard that you came to the county government office, so I came here to wait for you." When Song Yan saw Lu Yao, his eyes were filled with smiles.
But Lu Yao always felt guilty and nervous: "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?"
"Can't I go find you if I have nothing to do?" Song Yan pretended to be angry, "I just miss you! I've been busy these past two days and haven't had time to see you."
"Oh." At this moment, Lu Yao also noticed that Song Yanyi had slightly dark circles under his eyes.
"Is it because of too much business? I see that there are dark circles under your eyes. You must not have had enough rest, right?"
A word of concern warmed Song Yanyi's heart.
He raised his hand and gently rubbed the corners of his eyes, saying unhappily, "You might as well be busy with business! It's my awful aunts who are causing trouble.
They were the ones who suddenly showed up to disrupt the blind date that day."
Lu Yao had some impression of those people.
Ever since she came here, she has been on guard against all kinds of bad relatives.
It turned out that there were none in his own family, but there were a few in Song Yan's family.
"What are they making a fuss about?"
"It's because I'm getting married."
It turns out that many of the Song family’s businesses are jointly participated in by different branches.
Each person's share not only determines his or her own income, but also affects the distribution of benefits to others.
Song Yanyi was very good at business and was the favorite of Old Madam Song. In addition to his own shop, he also had a share in many other family businesses.
When he was the son of the Song family, these things were not a big deal.
But he was going to get married, and a married son was like spilled water. Those shares became glaring in the eyes of many members of the Song family.
Those few extremely mean old aunts wanted to use the excuse that Song Yanyi was going to get married and would no longer be a member of the Song family to embezzle or divide up that share.
In the past, Song Yan couldn't find a wife, so he thought about taking one in as his concubine.
The wife who married into the family was a concubine and the child she gave birth to was given the surname Song, so she had no influence on the Song family.
But now he is going to get married, and marrying a wife follows the wife, which is different from marrying a daughter-in-law, so those relatives started to get active.
They didn't get what they wanted on the blind date that day, so of course they continued to make a fuss afterwards.
These past two days, Song Yanyi has been busy dealing with these matters with his mother, elder sister and others.
Can I not feel bad? Can I sleep well? Can I not have dark circles under my eyes?
“Actually, they didn’t specifically target you during the blind date that day.
As long as I get married, no matter who the wife is, they will make a fuss. "
It turned out to be the case.
Lu Yao finally understood why the Song family's aunts and uncles still came to interfere when she was going on a blind date.
At this time, Song Yanyi said angrily:
“They are not direct relatives, and it is a great favor for them to be allowed to have a few shares in the Song family’s assets.
I didn’t expect that they were still not satisfied and kept asking for more!”
The aunts who were causing trouble were Madam Song and Master Song’s concubine sisters, not their biological relatives.
In a world like Feng Dynasty, there is a clear distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children.
Whether it is the distribution of family property or personal prospects, the difference is not that big.
Lu Yao suddenly had an idea in her mind, and thought of a question that she had never thought about before:
"Yan Yi, is it true that no matter whether they are high-ranking officials or ordinary people, the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children is huge?"
"Of course! Legitimate children are treasures, while illegitimate children are weeds.
The bigger the family business, the clearer these things are." Song Yan has always been frank.
Take him for example. If he were a bastard, even if he had a talent for business, his family would not give him too many resources, nor would they cultivate him vigorously, and he would never be able to reach his current level.
Lu Yao also thought of the Lu family.
As a doctor's father, he always keeps his word.
Second and third fathers can only be obedient.
The eldest sister can live in the main house made of bricks and tiles. Even if the original owner, Er Gouzi, is a bad boy, the other sisters dare not act rashly.
Lu Yao even thought of Lu Lin, who always looked depressed and unwilling.
Besides the fact that she always conflicts with the original owner, it’s probably also because she is a concubine’s daughter?
Lu Yao suddenly fell silent.
"Lu Yao, what are you thinking about? Why do you look unhappy?" Song Yan asked while holding Lu Yao's little hand.
"No way."
Song Yan looked at the gate of the yamen not far away and asked worriedly, "You came to the yamen, is there any trouble?"
"It's okay, I just came here for tea."
Song Yanyi looked at Lu Yao carefully, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I heard that you met a powerful boss Zhou. Did she invite you?"
The Song family’s news network is quite powerful. Although they don’t know Zhou Chengxi’s true identity, they know that Lu Yao recently met a Boss Zhou.
This Boss Zhou lives in the backyard of the county government office. I’m afraid he has an extraordinary background.
After hearing this, Lu Yao opened her mouth in surprise: Song Yan is quite well-informed!
"Don't worry, I support you." Song Yan shook Lu Yao's little hand and said virtuously.
If you do business, you have a wide range of social contacts and you are bound to get to know all kinds of people.
Even for business, various occasions are indispensable.
He understood and supported her. He would not control Lu Yao too strictly or be suspicious of her.
"If you need any help with your business, don't forget to find me."
"Hmm~"
"And," Song Yanyi suddenly lowered his eyes shyly, and asked nervously and shyly:
"When will your family come again?"
The family came again to formally propose marriage.
After the first meeting, the next step is to send the betrothal gift, and the two families will formally discuss the marriage process together.
When she said this, Lu Yao felt like she was about to collapse.
The muscles on his face were so stiff as if he had undergone some major cosmetic surgery. He could neither make any expression nor speak.
“I, I…” was all I could say.
"Okay, okay, I'm just asking. I'm really not rushing you." Song Yanyi's heart was leaping with joy, but he lowered his eyes in shame.
As a boy, it is really unreserved to ask such a question.
Look how difficult it is for the future wife.
Song Yan knew that if the Lu family came again, he would have to make a lot of preparations and it couldn't be too fast.
But he really wants to get married soon!
Lu Yao was in a daze. She didn't know how Song Yanyi left, nor did she know how she returned to the small building.
Song Yan was looking forward to marrying herself as soon as possible, and Xie Jingran also came back and wanted to marry herself.
How should I tell Song Yanyi about Xie Jingran's existence?
How should I tell Xie Jingran about Song Yanyi's existence?
Because of feelings and because we care about each other, there are some things we dare not say and cannot say out loud.
"What should I do?" Lu Yao thought in distress as she lay on her bed.
Zhou Chengxi, who was far away, straightened his clothes.
"It's my turn."
