Transmigration: I Have Storage Space in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 456

Chapter 456: Chapter 451 Xie Jinghong’s Troubles 06

——————

Seeing the Xie Family in such a state, Fan Jiefang’s heart felt even worse.

He didn’t want to hurt his wife’s feelings either. After all, Xie Jinghong was the one he willingly courted and asked for in marriage. But now, he had broken his initial promise, causing her to harbor resentment and hatred toward him!

As the biological father of the children, how could he possibly want to let his child be adopted away—

It was just that his mother always coerced him with life-threatening intensity to agree, and after several attempts at self-harm, he had been frightened into submission!

"Jiefang, you’re not young anymore, how can you still be led by the nose by an old woman?" Xie Tiesheng said with a face full of disapproval, turning toward Da Nvmei and growling angrily for the first time.

This made Fan Jiefang awkwardly stare at him, his face full of self-reproach as he bowed his head. No matter his status or reputation outside, standing before his father-in-law, he truly felt he could not hold his head up high.

"Brother Jiefang, I think, if your mother really insists on adopting Xiao Xian—

You should go back and ask your younger brother and his wife, they can adopt, but if they really want to take Xiao Xian, then let them give their daughter to you for adoption as well."

"Ha?" Upon hearing Yan Jinsu’s unconventional proposition, everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment, their faces filled with confusion.

Xie Tiesheng furrowed his brows even more, showing a displeased look.

Yan Jinsu, however, paid no heed to the various expressions of those present and continued:

"I know that there are still many older folks who think that only with a son can a family line continue, and adopting is for the purpose of carrying on the ancestral line and family name—this is not without reason." [Yan Jinsu sneered inwardly, in a world where it’s only men, let’s see how they manage to carry on the family line!]

"But now, your younger brother also has his own biological children! If they must insist on my second sister’s son being adopted to them, fine, let’s all adopt.

That way, your younger brother and his wife won’t abuse Xiao Xian out of spite for past events."

Yan Jinsu said, casting a glance at the mother-in-law peering out and sneering, she continued to speak to Fan Jiefang:

"Brother-in-law, to put it bluntly, if one desires another’s child, first one must be willing to give up their own daughter. This seems fair, doesn’t it?

Your mother wants to adopt a grandson for your younger brother to carry on the family line, and there’s nothing wrong with that. After all, they are biological siblings, right?!

But on the flip side, your younger brother indeed has his own biological daughter. Who would truly care for an adopted child?

Anyway, I don’t trust the character of your younger brother and his wife, or your mother. And if your mother were here, I, Yan Jinsu, would say the same thing."

The behavior of the old matriarch of the Fan Family was disapproved of not only by the Xie Family but even Fan Jiefang, her own son, was becoming increasingly dissatisfied with his mother’s character.

Hearing Yan Jinsu’s clever words, the Xie Family members all looked at her with surprise and satisfaction.

Coming back to their senses and thinking it over carefully, although Yan Jinsu’s suggestion was somewhat unconventional, everyone felt that it might actually deter the Fan Family’s mother and son from their desire to adopt!

If they really want to adopt, fine!
