After hearing the cause and effect of the incident, Goudan felt quite complicated, and at the same time, she felt a little suspicious. Will there be any hidden secrets behind his parents' death?

Goudan was able to think of this because of Ling Xiujin's usual teachings, so although Goudan was young, he actually understood a lot of things.

However, Goudan didn't doubt his life experience. After all, let's not talk about the appearance of the so-called grandfather in front of him, he was somewhat similar to him.

Just because the other party has a valuable status and is not short of sons and grandsons, there is no need to deceive him as a child without power.

Then the old marquis proposed to let Goudan recognise his ancestors, and Goudan felt a little unhappy about this. After all, his "father" has been very good to him over the years, and it is no different from his own.

As for his biological parents, he had never even seen them, so naturally he could not have any deep feelings.

And most importantly, he had doubts about the cause of his biological parents' death. After all, the Hou family had a great cause, and there might be something dirty inside that outsiders didn't know.

So compared to these wealth and honor, he prefers a simpler life. Anyway, he and his "father" don't have to worry about food and clothing now.

But Goudan also knew that if the other party really wanted to keep him, he would not be able to resist even if he was unwilling to do so, so he could only politely refuse.

"I like my current life very much. I'm afraid I can't fit my life in the Hou Mansion. What's more, my father has only me, I can't be so ungrateful. I hope you can understand my choice."

Goudan never called the old marquis "Grandpa" from beginning to end. First, he couldn't shout it for the time being, and second, he was worried that once he called him grandpa, he wouldn't be able to leave.

Seeing that Goudan was unwilling to stay, the old marquis was a little disappointed, but he couldn't force him, so he planned to start with his adoptive father.

According to the survey results, this child is a very filial child. If his adoptive father spoke, he would not refuse again.

When the old marquis thought of this, he decided to have a good talk with Ling Xiujin, hoping that he could be more sensible and would be better off taking the initiative to help persuade the harvest.

"You are the child's adoptive father, right?" The old marquis looked at Ling Xiujin without any trace, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

This person doesn't look like an ordinary farmer, but instead gives people the feeling of a humble gentleman. It should be his illusion?

After all, even though he has recognized a lot of words with Feng Sheng, he has never studied seriously and what can he learn in a short time?

"Yes, Caomin Feng Yongnian met the old marquis." Ling Xiujin bowed to him and replied in a humble tone.

"Yongnian doesn't have to be too polite. Thank you for raising Feng'er so much. The Marquis' Mansion owes you a favor. If you have any help in the future, just talk."

The old marquis said with a grateful look and made a promise on the spot, but his tone unconsciously had a sense of being arrogant.

However, this is understandable. This is a feudal era with distinct hierarchies. With the status of Zhenguo Marquis' Mansion, he naturally looked down on civilians like Ling Xiujin.

Now he was so polite to him, it was because he adopted Goudan.

Ling Xiujin could naturally see this, but he didn't care. After all, he was also a proud person and had the capital to be proud.

It's just that he hides well, so it's just that he can't see it.

She is the only person in this world who can make people willing to let go of their figure.

"Hello, you are polite. Although the Fengcheng is not Caomin's biological son, Caomin has always regarded him as his biological son and cannot thank you for your thanks." Ling Xiujin said without being humble or arrogant.

The implication is that he is my son, and you don’t need to thank me.

The original owner adopted Goudan, not only because of his kindness and could not bear to watch the child starve to death, but also because he wanted to pass on his family tradition.

However, Ling Xiujin also knew that with his current status, he could not beat the Marquis' Mansion. He said this to test the other party's attitude and his importance to Goudan.

In fact, he also knew that since the other party sent someone to find him, he would definitely not let the bloodline of the Hou Mansion continue to be out, which means that Goudan must have returned to the Hou Mansion.

When the old marquis heard this, his expression became slightly cold. What does he mean?

Could it be that he still wants to stop his grandson from recognizing his ancestors?

He could understand the other party's reluctance and the other party's idea of ​​having a son to pass on the family line, but the harvest is the blood of his eldest son and the only child, so he could not let the child continue to wander.

What's more, this man is still young now and can marry a wife and have a fat boy. At worst, he can give him a few more beauties later.

However, before the old marquis said anything, Ling Xiujin said again: "Caomin knows what the marquis wants to say. Caomin will respect the choice of a harvest. If he wants to return to the marquis' mansion, Caomin will never stop it."

"Yongnian is really reasonable, but... Fengshou is filial and I'm afraid he doesn't want to leave you. I wonder if Yongnian can help me persuade him?"

After the Old Marquis' Mansion finished speaking, he seemed to feel that his request was a bit too much, so he quickly explained.

"Of course, I also know that this requirement may be a bit difficult. After all, it is not easy for you to adopt a good harvest after all these years. This relationship is not so easy to give up.

This marquis is not that unreasonable person. If Yongnian is willing, this marquis wants to recognize you as his adopted son. How about you stay in the marquis’ mansion with Fengshou?"

When the old marquis said this, his tone sounded very sincere. In order to make his grandson willing to recognize his ancestors, he didn't mind giving his child the identity of his adoptive father.

Anyway, their Marquis’ Mansion cannot afford to support them. As long as the other party’s request is not excessive, he can try his best to satisfy the other party, which is to repay the other party’s grace for raising his grandson.

If it were the original owner, he probably could not refuse such a wealth and honor, but Ling Xiujin refused without thinking.

"Thank you for your love, but Caomin likes his current life very much and doesn't want to leave his hometown, so he just wants to recognize his adopted son or something.

As for asking the child to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, please forgive the people for saying frankly that the Hou Mansion should not be peaceful now, right? If the child comes back, can you guarantee that he will not be hurt?"

Although he did not know the situation of the Marquis' Mansion in Zhenguo, it took him so long to find the mansion because he was able to leave his children missing in public. It can be seen that the interior of the Marquis' Mansion was not peaceful.

What's more, Goudan's biological parents are no longer there, and it is not necessarily a good thing for him to return to such a complex environment to live.

After hearing this, the old marquis's mansion suddenly felt a little anxious: "Don't worry, this marquis won't be able to protect a child, and this marquis won't let anyone bully him."

After hearing this, Ling Xiujin did not try to argue with him anymore, but said, "Caomin will have a good talk with him."

Because the incident happened too suddenly and did not have the opportunity to learn about the situation of the Zhenguo Marquis' Mansion in advance, it was difficult for Ling Xiujin to express his opinions or make a decision rashly at this time.

He decided to first find out the situation of Zhenguo Hou Mansion, and there is always a solution to the matter.

When the old marquis heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and there was a rare smile on his face.
