Chapter 560 Accepting the wet nurse as a foster mother
Hearing this, the three members of the Xu family looked surprised.
"Ruo'er, what did you say? Are you going to accept my mother as your adoptive mother? Then you will be my adopted sister from now on?" Xu Zhengyong said excitedly.
"Yes, that's what I planned. Let's pick a day, and I'll come to visit my adoptive father and step-mother formally with the prayer ceremony."
She has wanted to do this for a long time, but the conditions were not mature enough before.
Now that she has the help of her second brother, she has no worries.
The identity of the nanny also changed because of Brother Xiao Yongs fame.
With everything ready, it was natural to put this important matter that she had been thinking about for a long time on the agenda.
"How can this be done? It can't be done, absolutely impossible!" the wet nurse said hurriedly.
"Yes, yes, that's not appropriate. The lady is of high status and we can't do it." Xu Zhushan also quickly waved his hands and objected.
Xu Zhengyong, however, held a different view: "I think it's good! Dad, Mom, I think it's good for Ruo'er to recognize you as his adoptive father and mother. From now on, I can be Ruo'er's upright brother!"
"No, we have a humble status. How can we be the foster father and mother of the young lady?" The wet nurse waved her hand and refused.
Wei Ruo took the wet nurse's hand and spoke her heartfelt words: "Nanny, first of all, in my heart, your status has never been humble. We are a family, not master and servant. Secondly, your current status is not humble either. , Brother Xiaoyong has been awarded the title of General Zhaowu, you are a serious generals mother, your status is not bad, you dont need to worry at all. "
"Yes, mother! When I joined the army, I wanted us to have a prominent identity. Although I failed to achieve my original goal of helping Ruo'er escape from the Wei family, at least now I can let Ruo'er call you out openly. Mother." Xu Zhengyong said.
"This can't be done, it can't be done!" the wet nurse said, shaking her head.
"Nanny!" Wei Ruo said with a serious face, "I really want to have a mother, but the relationship between my biological mother and me is not good, and there is a high probability that it will not be good in the future. You have been with me since I was a child. By my side, to me, you are not my biological mother but you are better than my biological mother, so can you satisfy my wish and be my mother?"
The wet nurse was stunned and her eyes were red.
Then she stood up, covered her face and walked into the house.
Xu Zhushan saw this and followed him in.
Wei Ruo didn't go, but she knew the wet nurse was happy.
After a while, Xu Zhushan accompanied the nanny back to the dinner table.
She nodded slightly and told Wei Ruo that she agreed.
Wei Ruo was very happy: "That's great. After the ceremony, you and I will be mother and daughter."
Xu Zhengyong asked Wei Ruo a question: "Ruo'er, although I am very happy that you want to be my adopted sister, do I have to ask Prince Rui about this matter first? What if he doesn't agree?"
"Don't worry, he already knows about this, and he agrees." Wei Ruo said confidently with a smile on his lips.
Thats good, it seems that he is really good. Xu Zhengyong commented.
Then Xu Zhengyong said: "I'm going to find a fortune teller to calculate an auspicious day!"
Hearing this, the wet nurse hurriedly said: "No, it doesn't need to be so formal."
Xu Zhengyong said: "Mom, this must be formal. It's best to let everyone in the capital know. This is when sister Ruo'er recognizes you as a foster mother, how can you be casual?"
Wei Ruodao: "Yes, nanny, she should be more formal. Tomorrow we will ask Master Qianyuan to give the nanny a formal name, and then we will count the days. I will hold a banquet for the Lantern Festival in two days, and I will be there This was officially announced at the banquet.
The wet nurse was born in a bad way, her family was poor, and she didnt even have a name because she was a girl.
If there were no accidents, after her death, only the name Xu He would be engraved on her tombstone.
But something unexpected happened in her life. Hearing Wei Ruo's words, the wet nurse's eyes turned red again.
"Miss, I'm really happy, really." the nanny said with a trembling voice.
Wei Ruo's face was also full of smiles: "I'm very happy too."
###
Although Wei Ruo would wait until the Lantern Festival to officially announce the matter, Wei Ruo had already spread the news before that.
People outside dont know about Wei Ruo and the He family, so they dont know the relationship between Wei Ruo and Xu Zhengyongs mother.
Everyone only knows that Mrs. Xu is the mother of Xu Zhengyong, the newly appointed deputy garrison of the Taizhou Anti-Japanese Army and the sixth-rank Zhaowu General. Princess Rui's family also lived in Taizhou Prefecture in the past, and Xu Zhengyong and Wei Mingting were both in the Anti-Japanese Army and had a close relationship.
I think it is because the two families have a good relationship, so they consider them to be cousins.
It is very reasonable to think so and there is nothing wrong with it.
Soon the news reached Uncle Zhongyis Mansion.
Hearing the news, Mr. Yun's face turned extremely ugly.
That person was just her former wet nurse. I heard she was from a humble background and didnt even have a name. How could she recognize her as her adoptive mother?
Yunshi was so angry that just then someone from Shouantang came to invite Mrs. Yun to come over, so Yunshi took Cuiping to Shouantang.
Mrs. Wei also came to see Yun because Wei wanted to recognize his adopted mother.
Have you heard that Princess Rui wants to adopt Mrs. Xu as her adoptive mother?
As soon as Mrs. Yun entered the door, Mrs. Wei asked.
"My daughter-in-law just heard about it." Yun's face looked very bad.
Hey, I thought you knew about this in advance. Mrs. Wei sighed.
Yun's face turned even more ugly, and she lowered her head in embarrassment.
What do you think? Mrs. Wei asked again.
"The daughter-in-law is not willing. The wife of the Xu family came from a humble background. She was originally Ruo'er's wet nurse, but now her son has made some achievements in the military camp with his brute strength. His status has changed. The daughter-in-law thinks she is worthy. Not going to our house." Yun said.
This is not just a question of deservingness, but a daughter who is not close to her is going to call someone else her mother. How can Mrs. Yun cope with this tone in her heart?
"I also think there is something wrong with this matter, but this matter came from Prince Rui's palace. With Ruo'er's current status, you may not be able to stop it," Mrs. Wei said.
"Daughter-in-law..." Yun knew it, but just because she knew it, she felt even more uncomfortable.
"Looking at your face, you feel very unhappy, right?" Although Mrs. Wei is old, her eyesight is still strong.
Yunshi didnt say anything, which was regarded as acquiescence.
"You, it was better not to treat her well before when she was not married, but now it's better. Not only is the relationship unclear, but the mother has to be replaced by someone else." Mrs. Wei sighed.
"Mom, you can't blame me for this..."
"If you don't blame me, who do you blame? When the third child came to my place a few days ago, I talked to her about the affairs between you mother and daughter. When I mentioned that your mother and daughter were not in harmony, although he didn't say much, I can feel that he is disappointed in you."
Hearing this, Yun raised her head suddenly, with hurt in her eyes: "Did he really say that?"
