Chapter 940: Adopting Hu Ming as His Son
Since you have decided to adopt Hu Ming as your adopted son, it’s better to do it sooner rather than later.
So that Hu Ming's status can be confirmed sooner and he can live peacefully in Sunjia Village sooner.
Sun Shan approached the elders of Yangjia Village and Yang Qingyuan, the new landlord.
When the elder of the Yang clan heard that Sun Shan wanted to adopt Hu Ming as his adopted son, he agreed without hesitation: "Mr. Sun, Hu Ming is very lucky to have you as his adopted father."
Looking at Hu Ming, who was wearing a long gown, he had the image of a future scholar.
This kid Hu Ming is really lucky as he was noticed by Mr. Sun.
Not to mention that both his parents are dead, even if his parents are healthy, he would have wanted to push Hu Ming to Sun Shan as his godson.
He is the godson of the first Jinshi of Zhangzhou Prefecture and the godson of the "tyrant" of Huangyang County. In the future, Hu Ming will enjoy endless wealth and glory.
As long as Mr. Sun has some money, Hu Ming will have no worries about food and clothing.
Of course, the most important thing is to stay with Mr. Sun, and Hu Ming has a great chance of becoming successful.
The elders of the Yang clan believed that the son of a Jinshi was a Jinshi, and Hu Ming was not his biological son but an adopted son, so even if the effect was halved, Hu Ming had a great chance of being born a Juren.
No matter how poor a scholar is, it is still better than ordinary people like them.
The elder of the Yang clan wanted to ask Sun Shan whether he still acknowledged him as his godson. If he still wanted to, he had a bunch of boys in his family for him to choose from.
When Yang Qingyuan heard that Sun Shan wanted to adopt Hu Ming as his adopted son, he felt envious and breathed a sigh of relief.
As an adopted son, Hu Ming can be more legitimate and stay with the Sun family openly, and he won't be scolded for being cold and indifferent.
It’s not that he doesn’t want Hu Ming to stay in Yangjia Village, but Hu Ming has the fate of being a "lonely star".
Before Hu Ming was born, their family was fine. After Hu Ming was born, his younger brother and sister-in-law both died, and his father and mother also passed away.
Yang Dalang doesn't want to be killed by Hu Ming.
Even if he died, Hu Ming might kill everyone in the Yang family.
Yang Dalang's wife even asked someone to do some divination and came to the conclusion that Hu Ming was indeed destined to be an uncaring person.
Yang Dalang was so frightened that his wife told the family not to get close to Huming.
At this moment, Hu Ming is like a hot potato. If he throws it away, is he still a human being?
If he stays at home, his life will be in danger.
Just when he was worrying so much that his hair turned white, Hu Ming actually ran away on his own and came to the Sun family.
Thank God, the hot potato was finally thrown away.
Yang Dalang and his wife pretended to call Hu Ming to come home, but he didn't respond after the first call and never called again.
Let everyone know that it was not them who drove away Hu Ming, but Hu Ming who stayed in the Sun family.
If this is spread out, it's none of their business.
Yang Dalang glanced at Sun Shan furtively, thinking to himself: Does Mr. Sun know that tiger roars and kills relatives?
If I didn't know, I would definitely not tell him.
If he knew, he would adopt Hu Ming as his adopted son and keep Hu Ming in the Sun family. Yang Dalang had to write the word "admit".
However, Yang Dalang believed that Sun Jinshi knew that Hu Ming had a "hard life and would bring bad luck to his relatives."
How could one become the first Jinshi in Zhangzhou Prefecture without some ability?
Moreover, according to fortune teller Yang, the fate of Mr. Sun in the entire Huangyang County is very powerful.
The fate of the tiger, which is "harmful to relatives", has no place at all in the fate of "Tian Yi Gui Ren" of Mr. Sun Jinshi, and Mr. Sun Jinshi can suppress it.
Yang Dalang said with a big smile: "Mr. Sun, it is the greatest blessing in his life for Hu Ming to be your adopted son."
Yang Dalang glanced at Hu Ming who was standing behind Sun Shan, showed pity for three seconds, and then continued doing what he was doing.
Sun Shan knew that the elder of the Yang clan and Yang Dalang would not have any objections.
They agreed, very good.
So he said, "Uncle Huming, when my uncle divided the family property before he passed away, the share of Tsinghua and Peking University naturally went to Huming. Let me be frank, I am Huming's adoptive father now, and I will help him sort out the land of Tsinghua and Peking University first."
After a pause, he continued to explain: "The land that Qingbei left to Hu Ming will first be given to the Yang clan, and will be given to Hu Ming when he turns 20 and has his coming-of-age ceremony."
In order to prevent Hu Ming from taking advantage of the situation, the Sun family did not touch Hu Ming's property.
Give it to the clan first, and then return it to Hu Ming when it grows up.
Everyone in the Sun family knew that Sun Shan would not be greedy for Hu Ming's tiny bit of property, but outsiders didn't know, so they did this to silence the gossips.
Sun Shan simply asked the Yang clan to keep it.
As for Hu Ming's mother's dowry, it was so little that it could be ignored.
Jin married in a hurry and didn't bring much dowry.
Yang Dalang was startled. He didn't expect Sun Shan to ask this question so casually.
Yang Qingbei did not divide the family when he was alive. Landlord Yang saw that he was in trouble and immediately summoned all the Yang clan members to decide on the division of the family property.
Later, Hu Ming ran away to live in Sunjia Village, and Yang Dalang treated the family as if they had never been divided, and continued to be in charge of the land that Hu Ming had been allocated.
As for the tribe, Hu Ming didn't even bring it up, and they didn't want to get involved.
So Yang Dalang almost forgot that Hu Ming had any property.
Sun Shan looked at the elder of the Yang clan, and then at Yang Dalang.
It is very difficult to make Yang Dalang vomit it out, so it is necessary to go through the Yang family to make Yang Dalang vomit it out.
Sun Shan continued, "The land that Hu Ming is allocated will be placed with the Yang clan first. It will be returned to Hu Ming when he grows up. During the period when Hu Ming grows up, 70% of the income from the land will be donated to the Yang clan to help the widows and orphans in the village.
Hu Ming's father was very grateful for the help of Yangjia Village when he was alive. Now that he has passed away, Hu Ming wants to do something for his father to repay Yangjia Village.
As for the remaining 30%, I will give it to Uncle Huming. When Huming's father was alive, he often told me that he was very grateful for Big Brother's care. Huming also wants to thank Uncle Huming on behalf of his father."
Sun Shan looked at Hu Ming and asked, "Hu Ming, do you have any objection to my foster father's arrangement?"
Hu Ming stood up and saluted to the elder of the Yang clan and Yang Dalang.
He shook his head and said, "Godfather, Hu Ming has no objection. I will follow your arrangements."
Little Hu Ming's voice trembled when he said this.
A few days ago, my adoptive father came to me and asked me if I was willing to be his adopted son.
Hu Ming said "yes" without thinking.
When his adoptive father and mother heard this, they looked at him with smiles on their faces and called him "adopted son".
At that moment, Hu Ming's heart was trembling, his eyes were red, and he couldn't help crying.
Hu Ming didn't know why he was crying. It was such a happy thing, but he just wanted to cry and shed tears.
His stepmother hugged him tightly and gently scolded him, "Silly boy."
Hu Ming couldn't stop crying. He cried and cried until he scared his little sister Xiaoxiao to tears. Only then did he stop crying.
His adoptive father and mother looked at him tenderly and told him that he would live in Sunjia Village from now on and would stay with him.
From now on he had a father, a mother, a younger sister, grandparents and great-grandmother, and he was no longer alone.
His adoptive father also told him to study hard. His father liked reading but unfortunately he didn't finish it. His adoptive father asked him to fulfill his father's arrogant wish and study hard.
The adoptive father also said that he was a Jinshi, so as a son he couldn't be too bad, otherwise it would be embarrassing.
His adoptive father helped him to surpass himself.
Hu Ming agreed while crying and laughing.
Now I have a home again.
