Chapter 4: Grandson becomes son, filial piety is so great

A tall man came in, walking like a dragon or a tiger.

Hu Mianmian took a closer look and recognized that this was the original owner's scumbag father, Hu Yunshen.

Just because he came in, Hu Mianmian saw from the corner of her eye that Rong'er, who was hiding behind Old Madam Hu, had a look of joy on his face. He took two steps forward but was stopped by the nanny.

The little girl narrowed her beautiful eyes.

There is something fishy.

Hu Yunshen walked into the flower hall and happened to meet the eyes of the daughter in his wife's arms.

Those round, dark eyes, with clear black and white, made him feel for the first time that they were like two cold abysses, locking him.

When Chen Qingyin heard her husband say he would not take a concubine, a look of relief flashed across her face.

Ever since she got married, she has been taking care of the household and being filial to her parents-in-law, and her husband Hu Yunshen has seen it all.

Madam Hu said in a friendly manner: "Yun Shen is back so early, does the emperor have any instructions?"

Hu Yunshen nodded: "The emperor has given us a house in Liuhua Hutong. It will be renovated in less than a month. Mother can start preparing to move into the new house."

Everyone in the Hu family was immediately overjoyed.

Madam Hu smiled so much that her eyes could not see. "A mansion granted by the Emperor? And it's in Liuhua Hutong. Oh, that's even closer to the Imperial City. My son is really promising!"

Hu Lan: "Not only that, I heard that the houses in Liuhua Hutong are all large houses with three entrances and three exits, which are half the size of the one we live in now. The emperor is really a gift to our family."

Mr. Hu looked proud and stroked his beard.

"The great victory in White Lion City was all thanks to Yun Shen's masterful use of the army. The emperor is a man who values ​​talent. From now on, Yun Shen, you should continue to serve the emperor well. I'm afraid you will have hope of becoming one of the Three Dukes in the future."

Hu Yunshen bowed and said, "Don't worry, father. I will do my best to bring honor to the Hu family."

Chen Qingyin was also sincerely happy for her husband.

Then he said, "Then I will start right away and have someone pack up the things so that we can move over directly when it is convenient."

While Mrs. Hu was filled with joy, she did not forget to glare at Chen Qingyin fiercely with a stern look.

"If you were truly considerate, you would have agreed to my son's concubine long ago!"

Chen Qingyin looked embarrassed. Hu Yunshen walked over, held his wife's hand, and turned to look at his parents.

"When we got married, I promised Qingyin that I would never take a concubine in this life and would only favor her. In the past few years, I have been fighting outside, and Qingyin has been managing the house and taking care of Mianmian. It's really hard for her. Mother, please don't make things difficult for her."

Madam Hu snorted coldly: "You care so much about your wife that you forget about your mother."

Hu Yunshen gently stroked the back of Chen Qingyin's hand.

"Qingyin, don't blame mother for her harsh words. She just cares too much about me. My second sister wrote to me before and mentioned Rong'er. If this child is really sensible and well-behaved, wouldn't it be great if you kept him by your side to keep Mianmian company?"

Chen Qingyin was stunned: "Husband, why do you say that too? You don't know yet, Mianmian has recovered from her illness, she is not stupid anymore."

As she spoke, she lowered her head and coaxed her daughter: "Mianmian, call me daddy."

Hu Yunshen pretended to look at his wife and daughter with deep affection, but there was suspicion in his eyes as he looked at Hu Mianmian.

The little fellow said to Hu Yunshen in a soft voice: "Call me daddy, call me daddy!"

Hu Yunshen's face suddenly turned dark.

Madam Hu: "Is he really well? He is still stupid and dumb! He can't even call me dad. What's the point?"

Hu Mianmian snorted in her heart.

Want someone to call you dad? That's easy.

The little guy turned his eyes and saw Rong'er looking at them eagerly.

Her dark eyes suddenly released invisible magical power, emitting golden waves that slowly surrounded Rong'er.

Rong Er couldn't help but shout in the direction of Hu Yunshen:

"Dad! Tell them quickly that I am your biological son."

After shouting, he quickly covered his mouth.

Rong'er's face was filled with horror. Not only him, but even the nanny beside him looked pale and covered in cold sweat.

Old Madam Hu hurried to see Chen Qingyin's expression.

Chen Qingyin looked at Rong'er suspiciously: "Whose biological son are you?"

Hu Mianmian narrowed her eyes.

Rong'er immediately wanted to reach out and point at Hu Yunshen.

Unexpectedly, he was hugged by the nanny.

Madam Hu explained, "Rong'er is a really smart child. He knows how to call daddy so quickly. Qingyin, Yunshen, you should consider accepting this child. It is also your fate."

But Chen Qingyin didn't believe it.

She stared at Rong'er and said, "Mammy, put him down and let him tell her for himself, who is the father he is talking about?"

As he spoke, a puzzled look was already cast towards Hu Yunshen.

Hu Yunshen frowned and scolded, "How can a mother say that such an unruly child was carefully selected? Mammy, take the child down first."

Hu Mianmian would never miss this good opportunity.

She pointed at Mr. Hu next to her and said, "It was him. I saw it. Brother Rong'er called him daddy."

Everyone was shocked.

Mr. Hu sat up straight abruptly: "Nonsense!"

Hu Mianmian tilted her head and scratched her face with her little hands, confused:

"Isn't it you? Then... it's him."

She pointed her chubby little finger at Hu Yunshen.

Hu Mianmian giggled, sweetly and adorably: "Mom, did you secretly give birth to a little brother without telling me?"

Chen Qingyin's face looked extremely ugly.

She stared at Hu Yunshen: "Husband, do you know Rong'er?"

"I..." Hu Yunshen didn't know how to answer.

If this continues, the fact that he has a son outside will be exposed.

But Hu Yunshen can't let Chen Qingyin know it now.

He closed his eyes, then sighed and said to Mr. Hu: "Dad, I can't hide it anymore. Tell the truth. This is your son."

Mr. Hu and Mrs. Hu both widened their eyes.

Hu Lan was stunned: "What?"

Chen Qingyin's expression also became surprised: "Is... is it my father's late-born son?"

Mr. Hu was about to scold angrily, but Hu Yunshen stopped him with his eyes.

Hu Yunshen explained, "You also know that my father is a man who cares about his reputation. He has a child at this age, and he is more than three years old. He is afraid that he will be laughed at if he tells others about it, but he also can't let our flesh and blood of the Hu family be left alone outside, so he came up with this idea to bring the child into the mansion."

Chen Qingyin said anxiously: "Then he can't be adopted by me. Logically speaking, Rong'er's generational status is... is he my uncle?"

But...

Chen Qingyin looked at Old Madam Hu.

"I have been serving my mother for the past few years, how come I didn't know she was pregnant?"

Hu Yunshen gritted his teeth secretly.

If you want to lie, you have to lie to the end.

"Not from my mother."

"What?!" Hu Lan raised her voice, "Brother, didn't you say..."

"Shut up!" Hu Yunshen scolded.

Hu Mianmian pointed at the nanny and said, "I know, she gave birth to the child!"

The main purpose is to muddy the waters.

Everyone was shocked.

The nanny was covering Rong'er's mouth tightly. When Hu Mianmian pointed at her, she raised her head with a panicked look on her face.

"Old slave…" She stammered and looked towards Madam Hu.

Old Madam Hu pressed her forehead, she was really at a loss.

"Grandma Gao, just admit it. Three years ago, you suddenly left home to visit your relatives because you were pregnant. It's understandable that Qingyin didn't know."

Although, the truth is not like this.

Grandma Gao left suddenly. Of course, she received a letter from Hu Yunshen. Under the entrustment of Old Madam Hu, she went to secretly take care of the woman outside during her confinement.

After hearing what Mrs. Hu said, Chen Qingyin finally believed it completely.

Grandma Gao hugged Rong'er, knelt down and cried bitterly.

"Yes, Madam, Rong'er is my child. I wanted to adopt him to be raised by you because I was afraid of losing face. I really deserve to die!"

Rong'er struggled and seemed to want to say something, but the nanny covered her mouth tightly.

Chen Qingyin has a thousand words to say.

But in the end, she could only look at Mr. Hu with wrinkled features and sighed, "Father, you are so foolish. Why didn't you tell me about this earlier? What's so shameful about having a child in old age?"

"Old clams give birth to pearls~" Hu Mianmian pointed at Rong'er and Grandma Gao.

Rong'er cried non-stop, and his cries mixed with those of Grandma Gao, making everyone present feel a headache.

Chen Qingyin frowned, and Hu Yunshen said, "Take Mianmian back to the room first, and let me take care of it here."

"Okay, husband, if you need any help, just tell me."

Chen Qingyin took Hu Mianmian away.
