Xu Shiqiu looked at Dong Shu nervously, afraid that his wife would be reluctant to leave.
At the same time, he was also thinking about what he should do if the Young Girl was truly unwilling to leave this place.
But Dong Shu did not give him much time to think, after hearing his words, she immediately shook her head at Xu Shiqiu, and said: ”How could that be?” After saying that, Dong Shu thought for a moment before continuing, ”With Master, Yuanxi and Mother should be home.”
Xu Shiqiu never thought that Young Girl would say something like that. In that moment, he suddenly felt his heart soften, so softhearted that he directly pulled Dong Shu into his embrace, and did not let go even after a long time.
Dong Shu did not know what was wrong with Xu Shiqiu, but being hugged by his husband made her happy.
Dong Shu decided to make a trip to the Dong Clan before she left.
However, she did not mention it before, and only thought about it after a while. Now, however, using Xu Shiqiu's words, she mentioned it today.
After Xu Shiqiu confirmed Dong Shu's intentions, he began to make arrangements.
He definitely had to give the Dong Clan a gift. Although his own Young Girl was only the Dong Clan's niece, from the expression on his face, he could guess that she had something to say when he returned to the Dong Clan.
However, after thinking for a long time, he still could not think of what his clan's Young Girl wanted to say to the Dong Clan.
Because he couldn't think of anything, Xu Shiqiu could only arrange a servant to prepare a present for the Dong Clan, waiting to go with Young Girl to the Dong Clan.
After a few more days, with Xu Family prepared as a gift for the Dong Clan, and when the Dong Clan's household was free, Dong Shu brought Xu Shiqiu, who was carrying a few things, and Xu Jie and Xu Jie, who was behind him, to head to the Dong Clan.
This time, Dong Shu and Xu Shiqiu had brought back a lot of things and they did not hide anything on the way.
Although every family was busy farming in the beginning of spring, there were still many villagers who wanted to watch the show after seeing Xu Family's stance.
Dong Shu was no longer as perturbed as she was last year. After entering her uncle's house, she followed her instructions and directly sat down.
”I'm afraid that my husband and I won't be coming back to the capital for a while.” Dong Shu saw that her uncle looked like he wanted to say something, but hesitated. He immediately continued: ”I'm not at Xiahe Village, my parents' tomb, I need to trouble uncle and Cousin to take care of it.”
Hearing Dong Shu's words, Xu Shiqiu finally understood why his Young Girl would be willing to come to the Dong Clan.
”Shu'er, don't worry. Uncle will definitely remember this.” When the eldest uncle of the Dong Clan thought of his younger brother's early death, he felt sad as well.
The younger brother had no son, so he would definitely worship together with his family's grandson in the future. Otherwise, the two of them wouldn't even have a son to worship in the future.
Hearing his uncle's words, Dong Shu immediately stood up and bowed to him, ”Then, I'll have to thank uncle.”
Everyone in the Dong Clan looked at each other, wanting to say something, but they didn't know what to say.
”My wife, don't worry. The Cousin is here. If anything happens in the future, he will write to us directly.” Actually, those words were not what Xu Shiqiu wanted to say the most at the moment. It was just that they were still in the Dong Clan, and there were some things that were hard to say right now.
Originally, Madame Dai was not willing to help her brother-in-law bury the grave in the future, but now that she heard Xu Shiqiu's words, she immediately came back to her senses.
had already promised Dong Lei that as long as he worked properly, he would give Dong Lei the management of all the businesses in Seaside County that belonged to the three houses of Xu Family.
When she thought about her son's future prospects, Madame Dai immediately pursed her lips, preventing herself from making any sounds of opposition.
Furthermore, Madame Dai also had a bold idea. She wanted to pass her youngest son on to her younger brother's family.
It was just that she didn't dare to bring it up right now.
No one knew what Madame Dai was thinking in that instant, but after hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Dong Lei had naturally stepped forward and promised that he would remember to pay respects to his uncles and aunts.
Dong Shu knew that Cousin was a man of his word. Since Cousin had agreed, he would definitely do it.
Finishing up about this matter, Dong Shu finally calmed down about the big matter in her heart.
After eating a meal at the Dong Clan, Dong Shu followed Xu Shiqiu and left.
After Dong Shu and Xu Shiqiu left, the Dong Clan held another discussion.
The Madame Dai had just spoken out her thoughts, and just as she finished speaking, the Dong Clan Big Uncle fell silent. Dong Miao wanted to say something, but after thinking about it, she decided not to speak out in the end.
”This matter is not urgent. Looking at Third Young Master's expression just now, it should be the first time I've heard that Shu'er can't be at ease with uncle and aunt's tomb. After I return today, they will definitely discuss it.” Dong Lei now looked more and more like the lord of a family. After he finished speaking, he thought for a while and continued, ”I'll go find the Third Young Master in two days and see what he has in mind. If he and Shu'er agree, then we'll take this opportunity before they head for the capital.”
After returning home, Xu Shiqiu had indeed mentioned this matter to Dong Shu.
”My wife, why don't we wait until we give birth to our son and change our surname to yours?”
Xu Shiqiu only asked in a probing tone, he did not expect that when he finished, Dong Shu would open her eyes wide in shock, ”Husband, how could you have such thoughts?”
”Of course it's because I want to have this child return to the Xiahe Village to guard the family business here. This child can also be considered to have left behind the bloodline of his parents.” Xu Shiqiu looked at Dong Shu who was speaking earnestly, and truly told Dong Shu his thoughts.
Dong Shu, she really didn't think that Xu Shiqiu would think this way.
To be honest, she still remembered the scene when her mother hugged her father and told her that she had not given birth to a son for him. It was just that her father had not only been angry, but had also spoken of her mother.
Father said, ”With Shu'er, everything is worth it. In the future, if I let Shu'er take in a burden, then I'll have a grandson.”
Dong Shu clearly remembered her father's words, but she didn't expect her father to follow her mother not long after she left.
She had become the orphaned daughter of her parents, so she had no choice but to live with her uncle's family.
With the protection of the Cousin, she gradually forgot about what his parents told her back then.
