The Rise of a General's Daughter-in-Law Doctor
Chapter 207 How about Uncle and Aunt adopting a goddaughter?
Shangguan Wanyun: "I really like Lanzhi. She has a good personality and character."
Hearing Shangguan Wanyun's words, Li Muxia was delighted. It seemed that her second aunt had a good impression of Lan Zhi. That made things much easier.
"Second Uncle and Second Aunt, Lanzhi is the first friend that Anran and I have made in all these years. Yesterday, you must have heard that Lord Su wanted to send her to the Yun family as a concubine, and Lanzhi was clearly unwilling. As a good friend, I want to help her."
The old general said, "Mu Xia, this is not something we can control. It's a family matter of the Su family, and outsiders can't help with it."
Li Muxia naturally knew all this and said, "Grandpa, I know all this, which is why I asked my second uncle and aunt. Only my second uncle and aunt can help with this matter."
General Li and Shangguan Wanyun exchanged a glance and said, "Us?"
Then, as if remembering something, he glanced at Li Anjin beside him.
Shangguan Wanyun: "Oh, then why don't you just ask An Jin? As long as he's willing, we have no objections."
This statement successfully drew everyone's attention to Li Anjin, who was drinking tea from a cup.
Li Anjin's mind wasn't on that at all; she was thinking about an article she had read that day.
Feeling everyone's gaze, she asked in surprise, "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
Li Muxia also wanted to ask: Why do I need to ask my brother's opinion before I can adopt a goddaughter?
However, the elders present all knew what was going on, and they were also looking forward to Li Anjin's thoughts. After all, Li Anjin was eighteen years old this year, and had already passed the age for marriage proposals, but he himself had always disagreed.
If this matter can be accomplished, they would be happy to see it happen. The Li family doesn't care about background, as long as the person has good character.
Shangguan Wanyun said, "Mu Xia wants to help Lan Zhi, so she's asking for your opinion."
Li Anjin: "Then let's help, I have no objection."
Upon hearing this, the elders were overjoyed and asked in unison, "You agree?"
Seeing how excited her elders were, Li Anjin was a little doubtful: "Yes, they agree."
Then he asked, "How do you plan to help?"
Upon hearing this, several elders frowned, realizing that this person had agreed without even knowing the truth.
Just as Shangguan Wanyun was about to explain, Li Muxia spoke first: "It's very simple, just let Second Uncle and Second Aunt Ren Lanzhi become their adopted daughter."
Several people said in unison, "Adopt a goddaughter?"
Seeing everyone's strong reaction, Li Muxia asked in confusion, "Yeah, what else did you think it was?"
At this point, she suddenly remembered something and looked at Li Anjin. Could it really be what she thought? This misunderstanding is huge.
When Li Anjin saw the look Li Muxia was giving him, he said, "Adopt a goddaughter?" Why ask for his opinion on adopting a goddaughter? It's enough for the parents to make the decision.
The elders' expressions were priceless after hearing this; it turned out they had misunderstood.
Shangguan Wanyun felt somewhat embarrassed and guilty, and almost sold her own son.
"Yes, that's what we think too. To be honest, I've wanted to adopt Lanzhi as my goddaughter for a long time, but it was you, Muxia, who brought it up."
Li Muxia: Second Aunt, you might as well not try to argue.
The old general and General Li coughed awkwardly.
The old general asked, "Mu Xia, have you consulted the fourth young lady of the Su family about this matter?"
Li Muxia: Not yet. I was thinking of asking you and my second uncle and aunt for their opinions first. If you all agree, then I will go and talk to Lanzhi.
Li Anran: "Lan Zhi will definitely agree."
Li Muxia: "Yeah, I think so too."
The old general said, "In that case, we should take some time to ask the Su family for their opinion. We shouldn't just ask the fourth young lady of the Su family, but also Lord Su. Adopting a goddaughter is not a small matter; both families need to agree."
Li Muxia nodded and said, "Yes, Grandpa, I understand."
General Li: "If the Su family agrees, we'll have a day off tomorrow, so we can hold the family recognition ceremony directly."
Li Muxia nodded and said, "Second Uncle, don't worry, I will make sure Lord Su agrees tomorrow no matter what."
Early the next morning, Li Muxia and Li Anran arrived at the Su residence with gifts.
The maid led her directly to Su Lanzhi's courtyard. Li Muxia looked at the small courtyard, but it was very elegantly decorated.
According to An Ran, Su Lanzhi's previous residence was not this one; it seemed to be the most remote and somewhat dilapidated one in the mansion. Ever since Su Lanzhi became friends with Li An Ran, Li An Ran would occasionally visit Su Lanzhi at the Su mansion, which is why Su Chengyun moved Su Lanzhi to this place.
Su Lanzhi personally came out to greet the two. As soon as she saw them, a smile appeared on Su Lanzhi's face, but Li Muxia could still tell that Su Lanzhi had been crying.
Facing Li Muxia and Li Anran, Su Lanzhi still tried her best to greet them in her best condition.
Li Muxia looked at Su Lanzhi, who was forcing a smile, and asked, "Lanzhi, did your father wrong you because of what happened yesterday?"
Faced with Li Muxia's concern, Su Lanzhi's feigned strength crumbled instantly. Tears streamed down her face like a broken string of pearls.
"Sister Xia, my father wants me to become Young Master Yun's concubine. I've begged him for a long time, but he still insists. Sister Xia, what should I do?"
Looking at Su Lanzhi, Li Muxia felt sorry for her. She was just a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, who would only be in high school in modern times.
Li Muxia took out her handkerchief to wipe Su Lanzhi's tears, and Li Anran comforted her from the side, "Lanzhi, don't be sad. We came here to help you solve this problem."
Upon hearing this, Su Lanzhi looked at the two of them with some surprise and asked, "Solve? What do you mean?"
Li Anran then told Su Lanzhi about what they had discussed the day before.
Upon hearing this, Su Lanzhi asked in surprise, "Really? Then I'll really be your little sister from now on."
Unexpectedly, Su Lanzhi was focused on this. The two looked at each other and said, "Yes, you've always been our little sister."
Upon hearing this, Su Lanzhi felt a lump in her throat, and the tears she had just stopped were starting to well up again.
Unexpectedly, Su Lanzhi and Li Anran are both crybabies. To avoid being overwhelmed by tears later.
Li Muxia quickly changed the subject, saying, "This matter still needs to be discussed with Lord Su. When will Lord Su return?"
Upon hearing this, Su Lanzhi stopped crying and said, "It's probably around lunchtime."
After listening, Li Muxia said, "Oh, is that so? Then can Anran and I have lunch at the Su residence today?"
Su Lanzhi happily replied, "Of course!"
After saying that, he seemed to remember something and added, "However, I need to ask Madam."
Li Muxia and Li Anran exchanged a glance, indicating their understanding.
Then he followed Su Lanzhi to Madam Su's courtyard.
Upon meeting Madam Su, Li Muxia first presented her with the gifts she had brought.
Madam Su accepted the gift with a smile and said politely, "Look, you've come all this way, why bring a gift? As expected of a young lady from the General's Mansion, you know how to be polite."
