Chapter 2092 Dong Wan'er Gave Birth (2)
Mu Zhongqing was very disappointed.
This child was much weaker than Wen'er and Wu'er when they were born. At that time, he and Du lived in Mujia Village, and their life was much harder than Dong Wan'er. Although Du's nutrition was not up to par, Wen'er and Wu'er cried loudly and thoroughly when they were born, and their little fists were clenched tightly. Unlike this little thing, it was sobbing and had no manly spirit.
Mu Chongwu was also very disappointed.
He thought that blood was thicker than water. Although he didn't like Dong Wan'er, he should love an innocent child, and his first child. But in fact, from the moment he saw this child, he didn't like him at all, and even felt a little disgusted. The blood connection and father-son nature that should be there were not reflected in him at all.
Only Du was very happy.
No matter what, the Mu family finally had a successor, and she finally held her grandson. In the future, when she went to the opera and drank tea with those imperial ladies, she would have the capital to show off.
"Oh, come on, let me hold you!"
When Mrs. Du saw the skinny monkey-like child, she felt so distressed that she carefully took the child from the nurse's arms and rocked him gently.
Chao Qing coughed and said, "Madam Mu, look, Wan'er has given birth to a child. Isn't it time to take them to the mansion? Otherwise, if you leave them here, people who don't know will think that your Mu family doesn't recognize their eldest grandson!"
Mrs. Du said, "How can our Mu family not recognize our own child? We will take the child back to the mansion today, and you can rest assured."
"What about Wan'er? When do you plan to take Wan'er to the mansion?"
Mrs. Du raised her eyes, looked at Chao Qing, and said, "There is no precedent for our Mu family to take concubines. We gave Ling'er the status of a concubine out of necessity. Therefore, there is really no way to take Ling'er back to the mansion. If Ling'er agrees to live in If she lives in the manor, we will provide her with good food and drink for the rest of her life. If she doesn't want this, please take her back. In the future, men and women will get married and have nothing to do with each other. "
Mu Zhongqing and Du Shi had already discussed that the child belongs to the Mu family, and they must have it. However, Dong Wan'er is a scheming woman. Now that she has a child, she will not be willing to be a concubine. If she is taken back to the manor, she will definitely cause trouble. Therefore, it is better to take the child back and let her stay in the manor to raise her. The Mu family will provide her with good food and drink and try to compensate her financially. If she doesn't want to stay here, they will give her a large sum of money to let her go back to her parents' home, which is also worthy of her.
When Chaoqing heard this, his face immediately fell, and he said: "Madam Mu, you don't want to get rid of the donkey after it has done its work, do you? Wan'er is a pure and innocent girl. It is already wronged enough for her to be your concubine and give birth to a child. But if you can't even tolerate her like this, aren't you afraid that the child will resent you when he grows up? Wan'er is his biological mother!"
Mu Zhongqing said: "We will give additional compensation to the mansion. Tomorrow I will ask His Majesty to restore the status of the eldest princess. In addition, I heard that your son is still a commoner, so I will give him a fifth-rank official position. Whether he can be promoted in the future depends on his own ability and luck."
When Princess Chaoqing heard that her status as the eldest princess could be restored and her precious son could be given a fifth-rank official position, her dissatisfaction immediately disappeared.
Anyway, no one in her hometown knows that Wan'er gave birth to a child here. When they return to Tongzhou, they will let Wan'er still dress up as a girl, and then choose a boy from a poor family to marry her off without anyone knowing. With their family's power, I believe the son-in-law won't dare to tell anyone!
