Chapter 942: The Principle of Concession for the Happy

Sun Shan also notified the elders of the Yang clan and Yang Dalang to come to the "recognition of relatives" banquet in three days.

At this moment, facts are more important than laws.

The purpose of holding the family recognition banquet is to announce to the world the relationship between Sun Shan and Hu Ming as adoptive father and adopted son.

Even if something happens in the future, this banquet can serve as evidence.

After seeing off the Yang clan elder and Yang Dalang, Sun Shan took Hu Ming's hand and asked, "Hu Ming, you will live with your adoptive father and mother from now on. The past is over, so we should not dwell on it. The most important thing for you now is to study hard, okay?"

Hu Ming said happily: "Foster father, I understand. When I grow up, I will be filial to you and foster mother."

After a pause, he added: "I am also filial to my grandfather, grandmother and great-grandmother."

Sun Shan was happy: "My good son, you must remember what I said today and never regret it."

Hu Ming hurriedly shook his head and said, "No regrets."

When Su saw Hu Ming, she curled her lips. Although Shanzi adopted Hu Ming to "ward off evil spirits", she still felt uncomfortable spending so much money to raise a stranger's child.

Holding the little girl Xiaoxiao, he secretly complained about Xiaoxiao's father's wasteful behavior.

When he heard that Sun Shan was going to hand over Hu Ming's land to the Yang family, he widened his eyes and asked in confusion: "Shanzi, how can Yangjia Village take care of Hu Ming's land? We can also help Hu Ming take care of it."

Even small amounts of meat are still meat. Although Hu Ming didn't get much land, he still had a harvest.

The Su family was planning to use the harvest to supplement the family's expenses so as to reduce their own losses.

Sun Shan explained: "Mother, Hu Ming's surname is Yang, and he is from Yangjia Village. If we don't hand it over to Yangjia Village, who should we hand it over to?"

Su hurriedly retorted: "Shanzi, you are Hu Ming's adoptive father, closer than those people in Yangjia Village, why can't it be handed over to you?"

Hu Ming was a little scared when he saw that Grandma was in an anxious tone.

In fact, Hu Ming also believed that the land left to him by his father should be given to him and then to his adoptive father.

His adoptive father was so good to him, so his things naturally belonged to him.

But my godfather has already said that I should be obedient and do whatever he tells me to do.

When you grow up, you will naturally understand why you do this.

Sun Shan said patiently, "Mother, I am doing this for Hu Ming and for myself. If I hand over the land to the Yang family and use the harvest to help the weak, Hu Ming's father will have a righteous fate and Hu Ming will have a good reputation, which will help Hu Ming in the future imperial examinations.

Mother, the imperial examination not only tests your academic ability, but also your moral character. If Hu Ming wants to take the imperial examination, he must have a good reputation. When the government comes, he will need to speak well of his family.

Mother, if Hu Ming lives with us instead of in Yang Village, if someone in the tribe says something unfavorable about Hu Ming, then all the books he has read will be in vain."

Su was stunned. Oh, how could he forget this?

Those who take part in the imperial examination must have a clean background. Hu Ming is innocent, but he has a bad fate.

If the Yang family said something bad, they might not allow Hu Ming to take the exam.

Then her family invested so much money, but it was wasted.

Sun Bomin nodded in agreement: "Shanzi did a good job. Reputation is something that needs to be accumulated from childhood. Hu Ming is from Yangjia Village, so he should help Yangjia Village."

Huang agreed and said, "Shanzi is thoughtful and long-term. We should not wait until the last minute to do anything. We really need to plan ahead."

The main reason is that tiger roar has a bad reputation. In fact, many people in Yangjia Village are afraid of tiger roar because it may bring bad luck to their relatives.

Now, by doing small favors, I can help Hu Ming gain a good reputation, which is worth preparing for the imperial examination.

Sister Yun looked at Sun Shan with bubbles in her eyes. He was indeed her brother Shan. He had been smart since he was young. No wonder he left his elder brother far behind.

Yun Jie'er looked at the fat daughter in her mother-in-law's arms again, hoping that her daughter could be as smart as her father, and not be like herself, with a stupid brain.

Sun Shan continued, "In addition to Hu Ming, it is also for my reputation. Mother, our family is not poor now, and the income from Hu Ming's land is dispensable to us, so we should simply not touch him, lest outsiders think that we raise Hu Ming just to get his property.

I will hand over Huming's farmland to Yangjia Village for management, so that outsiders will have nothing to say."

Hu Ming anxiously pulled Sun Shan's clothes and said, "Foster father, Hu Ming knows that you will not take my property. No matter what the outsiders say, I will not believe it."

Even if his adoptive father wanted to take his property, Hu Ming would give it to him willingly.

It is better to stay in Sunjia Village than in Yangjia Village. In Sunjia Village, he has friends to play with and classmates to write and do homework with him.

There are delicious food and drinks, and you can sleep on a soft blanket.

His stepmother often made clothes for him, his grandmother took him to work, and his grandfather also liked to take him to the orchard to pick fruit.

Hu Ming glanced at Su stealthily. Although his grandmother didn't like him and despised him, she never hit him.

Besides, grandma is very easy to coax. She will laugh if you say something nice to her.

Su held the little girl Xiaoxiao in her arms and ran to Sun Shan, saying hastily, "Shanzi, who dares to say that you are plotting to seize Hu Ming's property? Bah! What's the point of plotting against Hu Ming's tiny property? I have already paid more than the salary to Hu Ming.

Oh, who has no conscience and dares to gossip like this? We must catch him and give him a beating."

When Su heard the rumor, she was so angry that she jumped to her feet.

Hu Ming eats and drinks for free in the Sun family's old house. Not only does he sleep well, but he can also go to school. Isn't this money money?

Hu Ming’s income is not enough to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstone.

Su wanted to pull that man out and let him take Hu Ming back to raise him.

Little girl Xiaoxiao's eyes were still on Su's big gold bracelet. When she heard Su talking in a hurry, she thought he was teasing her.

I couldn't help but grin and laugh out loud.

When Sun Shan heard his daughter's laughter, he couldn't help but laugh too.

Then he said, "Mother, don't worry. No one has said anything yet, but if I help Hu Ming keep it, maybe rumors will spread. So why not just hand the land over to Yangjia Village so that outsiders won't have anything to say and rumors won't spread."

Sister Yun'er's eyes were still sparkling as she said admiringly, "Brother Shan, you did the right thing by preparing for a rainy day. It's really hard to tell what's going on in a melon field or a plum field. It's better to stay away from it so that there won't be any trouble."

The bulk of Hu Ming’s living expenses come from the Sun family, so they might as well pay for the small expenses as well.

There is no need to be greedy for that little bit of food. It is better to help people to the end and not ask for anything else.

Huang nodded and said in agreement, "Shanzi did the right thing. From now on, we should take good care of Huming and train him, and don't do too much else."

Sun Bomin echoed: "Shanzi is still thoughtful."

So the Sun family unanimously decided to train Hu Ming well and not touch Hu Ming's property.

Of course, Sun Shan would not ignore Hu Ming's property, and he would ensure that the land was under Hu Ming's name every year.

If someone was greedy, Sun Shan would pursue the matter to the end, as he had already made it clear.

Just because he has a good temper doesn't mean he has no temper.

Sun Shan adheres to the "principle of retreat for the happy" and will retreat if he can, but if it touches on fundamental principles, he will kill him with one blow.
