Chapter 2558 Divorce Your Wife? Taking a Concubine?
Jin Lan frowned: "What does mother mean by this?"
"You are the only legitimate son of the Jin family. You need a legitimate wife to give birth to the eldest grandson of our Jin family for you."
"That's what Mr. He is like. Let's discuss this later." Jin Lan frowned.
"Can you still expect the He family to give birth to a legitimate son for you?"
"What does it matter whether we have a legitimate son or not? If not, it means this is my fate!" Jin Lan said in a deep voice, "Ms. He's condition is not good, and I can't help her. Mother, it's better not to mention it, so as not to get hurt. Other people’s hearts.”
Mrs. Jin said angrily: "You kid, you are in a hurry after just a few words. Without a legitimate son to inherit the incense, are you worthy of your father, your grandfather, and your ancestors?"
"I have nothing to apologize to them for!"
"You -" Mrs. Jin was so angry that she blurted out what was on her mind, "Ms. He can't have a child. She has committed seven crimes. You should abandon her and marry another one!"
Jin Lan didn't expect to hear these words from her mother's mouth, and looked at her in shock.
"Mother, what did you say?"
"I -" Mrs. Jin said what was in her heart in a fit of anger. Although she felt a little regretful, she didn't have to hide anything in front of her own son. She lowered her eyes and said slowly, "You heard it right. If He If she can't have children, she is no longer qualified to be the Jin family's daughter-in-law."
"But she is already married. I bear most of the responsibility for what happened to her, so how can I divorce her at will? I, Jin Lan, am not such a shameless person!" Jin Lan was shocked by her mother's ruthlessness and felt sad.
Why, in the mother's eyes, a woman's value is only whether she can give birth to a son for the Jin family?
Isn't she a woman herself?
Why can't you understand another woman's misery and still add salt to her wounds?
Jin Lan felt that the mother in front of her was strange.
He grew up reading the books of sages and knew the importance of passing on incense. He also knew what loyalty and righteousness meant.
Although he has no love for He, at least there is some tenderness. In He's current situation, he would never be able to abandon her.
Isn't it a villainous act to abandon a wife because she can't bear children?
Seeing his resolute refusal, Mrs. Jin also became angry: "Do you want the Jin family to have no descendants?"
"My son doesn't want to."
"Since you don't want to, now that He can't give birth, what are you going to do?!"
"My son doesn't want to, but if this is what his destiny is, he will accept it."
"What a bastard!" Mrs. Jin was furious, "Well, if you don't want to divorce Mr. He, I will decide how many more concubines you will have. Don't worry, with the reputation of the Jin family, even if I give you concubines, Those who come in are all ladies from the boudoir, as concubines. They are definitely not shabby people outside. No matter who gives birth to a boy first, you can straighten it up. In this way, you will have a legitimate son."
"Why does it matter so much whether you are a legitimate son or not?" Jin Lan frowned, "You straighten my concubine, what will He do? And I don't want to take any more concubines."
"You don't give up the He family, and you don't take concubines. You just want to make sure that the Jin family has no heirs!" Mrs. Jin cried, "What have I spent my whole life for, and it's not for the Jin family. I leave my words here, If you don’t choose one of them, I’ll hang myself with a piece of white silk!”
"Mother, you——"
"Don't say anything else, divorce your wife or take a concubine. Make your own choice!" Mrs. Jin said sternly, "From now on, if you don't agree, I won't eat for a day. I want to see what you, Jin Lan, have done." Can a court official be unfilial to his mother and ignore the rules of his ancestors?"
