After Lin yuelan had arranged the woodshop, the real estate Corporation, and Lin’s medicine Hall, only Lin Yue Pavilion and Meng Yue Pavilion needed a steward.
However, the manager of the Linyue Pavilion and the Mengyue Pavilion was Li Huaisheng. If they rashly arranged for another manager to go over, it was likely to cause Li Huaisheng to feel uncomfortable.
“Jinlan, I’m planning to arrange for you to find a family,” After some consideration, Lin yuelan still felt that such an arrangement was necessary.
Of the four Wu siblings, Wu Jinxia handled the woodshop, Wu Jinmei handled the housing construction company, and Wu Jinwu handled Lin’s pharmacy. The only one left was the third daughter, Wu Jinlan. Lin yuelan still planned to let her take over the Linyue Pavilion and Mengyue Pavilion.
Since she intended to let Lin Jinlan take over these two shops, she must have a fair and square reason, which could not only make Li Huaisheng not mind at all but also fool those who had been harboring evil intentions for the Lin Yue Pavilion and the Meng Yue Pavilion.
Li Huaisheng and his wife didn’t have any children, so Lin yuelan planned to let Lin Jinlan recognize li Huaisheng and his wife as her godparents. Then, she would take over the Linyue Pavilion and Mengyue Pavilion from Li Huaisheng as his daughter.
Wu Jinlan, who had changed her name to Lin Jinlan, was surprised to hear Lin yuelan’s words.
She was an official servant. With such a lowly status, she was not qualified to acknowledge anyone as her family.
Could it be that the person she wanted to acknowledge as her relative was also a lowly person?
Lin Jinlan looked at Lin yuelan in surprise and confusion. She nodded respectfully and replied, ” as you wish, master!”
Lin yuelan nodded and didn’t say anything.
Not long after, Lin yuelan took Lin Jinlan to Ning An town.
Li Huaisheng hurriedly rushed from the front store to the back hall. When he saw Lin yuelan sitting in the main seat with a 17-or 18-year-old girl standing next to her, he was slightly puzzled, but he still immediately went forward and greeted her respectfully, ” miss Lin!”
As he was not sure of the identity of the lady beside Lin yuelan, he still addressed her as lady Lin in front of outsiders.
Lin yuelan held a cup of tea and took a sip. When she heard li Huaisheng, she nodded gently and replied, ” well, uncle li, please take a seat!”
Li Huaisheng nodded and immediately sat down in the first seat on Lin yuelan’s left.
Then, he suddenly heard Lin yuelan’s question, ” Uncle Li, I heard that you had a child 20 years ago, but after the child died in an accident, you never had a child, right? ”
Li Huaisheng’s face was sad at the mention of his sad past. He nodded and said, ” yes.”
Lin yuelan then asked in a serious tone, ” if I ask you to acknowledge a goddaughter who will be responsible for taking care of you when you’re old, would you be willing? ”
Li Huaisheng’s pupils contracted violently from the shock of these words. He was stunned for a moment, but after he reacted, his emotions became extremely excited. He suddenly stood up and replied in a somewhat eager tone, ” yes, of course, I’m willing!”
He and his wife had no children and had always wanted a child. However, his wife had been too sad twenty years ago and had injured her body. She could no longer conceive, so they had always wanted to adopt a child.
However, as soon as the news of his adopting a child came out, those people who wanted his family’s property immediately sent their children over. Their purpose was, of course, his family’s money.
After this happened a few times, he became disheartened and announced to the public that he would not adopt any children from any family and would be with his wife until they grew old.
However, when his wife suddenly became seriously ill, he had to manage both his career and his wife. There was no one to help him. He was so busy that he was so tired. At that time, he thought that it would be great if he had a child by his side. At the very least, he could help take care of his wife. Then, he would not be so tired and suffer so much.
However, he only thought about it at first. If he really sent out the message, it would definitely be the same as more than a decade ago. Those families would send their descendants over. After he and his wife passed away, those adopted children would take family assets back to their original family. Li Huaisheng would lose everything.
Therefore, until now, he did not dare to have any hope of gaining any godchildren.
