Reborn Lady - Chapter 74

The matter of Yin Lang’s adoption to the eldest brother’s family was settled in that way. 

Yin Jingshan and Zhao Shi were aggrieved, even though they didn’t dare to speak because of Wei Luo’s presence, their complexions were also pale, and they forced a smile that seemed to be cramp. 

Seeing it, Yin Yong felt very helpless. 

Without the help of the third master, he also had a way to make his son and daughter-in-law agree to adopt him. Among other things, the Yin family still had a side branch. If the son did not hand over Yin Lang, he would adopt one from the side branch. But it was better to arrange for Lang to be adopted. After all, he was also his blood. 

It was just that those methods were too time-consuming, so it was better to borrow the power of the third master. As a result, with just the third master sitting there, his son and daughter-in-law stopped. 

Yin Yong looked at his eldest grandson Yin Wen again, seeing that his smile was still there, and he didn’t mind the adoption, Yin Yong was a little relieved. He had long since stopped counting on his second son, but luckily his eldest grandson was well-raised. 

“Okay, you guys take Xiao Lang back. I will invite a few clan elders over tomorrow morning to formally record Lang’s name as your elder brother,” Yin Yong said. 

Since the matter had come to that point, Yin Jingshan and Mrs. Zhao could only admit it, salute and leave. 

Yin Hui told Jinzhan, “You go and help.”

Both Yin Jingshan and his wife were holding their breath, so Yin Hui was afraid that Yin Lang would be beaten. 

Hearing that, Mrs. Zhao secretly clenched her fists, Yin Jingshan’s face turned greener, he really wanted to beat Yin Lang severely. With Jinzhan following, it was difficult for him to do so. 

Who was to blame? 

It was strange that Yin Hui, the niece, climbed the high branch by herself, ran to her natal house, and didn’t put her uncle in her eyes. 

When turning around, Yin Jingshan took a deep look at Yin Hui. 

A middle-aged man who was nearly forty turned his resentment on a niece who was only seventeen years old. 

Yin Hui was not afraid at all, and would not waver. If she didn’t do anything, what was waiting for her would be the second uncle’s family that killed her grandfather and ruined her ancestor’s foundation. 

“Grandfather, I’ll go to the hometowns of a few clans first. Everyone has been busy with holding banquets recently. I’ll see who is free tomorrow,” Yin Wen said calmly and politely. 

Yin Yong smiled and nodded. 

Yin Wen saluted Wei Luo again, and left with his parents. 

Most of the people in the hall were gone, and the atmosphere became more relaxed. Yin Yong squeezed Xiao Heng’s chubby hand, and said to Wei Luo, “Third Master, adoption is a big deal, can you and Ah Hui stay here tonight? How about you go back after the banquet at noon tomorrow?” 

Wei Luo didn’t want to stay in the house to entertain those merchants, so he said, “Ah Hui can stay, I have arrangements with Xiao Heng.” 

Yin Yong immediately said, “That’s fine. Ah Hui, the third master has important business to do, so take him to your yard to rest first. I want to talk to your eldest brother about some things.” 

Yin Hui took her son and watched her grandfather go out, then she looked at Wei Luo, “I’m sorry to trouble you just now.” 

Wei Luo made a big contribution to handling the matter so neatly. 

The family of three walked toward the east courtyard where the big house of the Yin family was located.

The Yin family was very rich, but the house was not much different from other wealthy families. Just looking at the house setting, it was impossible to tell that the Yin family had millions of taels of silver. Instead, there was a sense of stability in the family and simplicity. 

This simplicity lasted until Huixiang where Yin Hui lived before leaving the pavilion, and finally disappeared. 

Stepping into Huixiang yard, the interior was as exquisite as another world. 

There were two half-person-high fish tanks in the main courtyard. From the color and texture of the fish tanks, one could tell that they were from Ding Kiln. Such a rare thing was casually placed in the yard by Yin Hui to be exposed to the sun and rain. Even though she had already got married, the Yin family didn’t put away the fish tank. They were still kept there, so that Yin Hui could come home to enjoy looking at it at any time. 

Entering the hall, there was a whole set of red sandalwood furniture inside, which was well maintained without any trace of bumps. 

With a simple glance, Wei Luo made a comparison in his heart. The residence of his wife was more expensive than Princess Xu’s courtyard. 

That was just the hall. The inner room would only be more luxurious. 

No wonder she could have fine skin and tender flesh. 

The wet nurse helped Xiao Heng to play in the yard, Jinzhan brought tea with a happy smile.

Yin Hui asked Wei Luo, “Aren’t you going to rest here tonight? If you don’t mind, you can go back after breakfast tomorrow morning.” 

Wei Luo: “No need.” 

Yin Hui didn’t force him. 

Wei Luo began to drink tea. 

Seeing that he didn’t even look at the inner room, Yin Hui seemed to have no interest in showing him her boudoir. If she invited him, he might blame her for showing off. 

After thinking about it, Yin Hui thought of a place that Wei Luo might like, “It’s still early for lunch, so I’ll take you to Zangshu Pavilion to have a look. I heard from my grandfather that there was an ancestor who loved books so much that he sent people to search for some rare copies, you might get interested in them.”

Among the five sons of King Yan, Wei Luo was the most outstanding in martial arts, but he also had literary talent. Wei Yang and Wei Yan often composed poems and drew pictures to show their elegance, while Wei Luo was a taciturn one, and never showed off those things. After all, Yin Hui had been with him for more than ten years, and knew how much he liked to stay in the study. He occasionally brought a book to the room to read a few pages before going to bed. 

Sure enough, Wei Luo was moved and accepted her proposal. 

The two went to Zangshu Pavilion. 

The Yin family’s Zangshu Pavilion was located on the east side of the Yin family’s ancestral hall. The other attics were mainly built of wood. After several generations of reconstruction, the Yin family’s Zangshu Pavilion was a two-story pavilion completely repaired with red bricks for fire prevention. The windows were opened on all sides of the wall for ventilation, and were all transparent glass. Even if the windows were closed, the library was still bright with sunlight. 

“Third Master, Madam,” the old steward who was in charge of looking after the library saw the two of them, and rushed to the door to salute respectfully. 

Back at her natal home, Yin Hui knew that everyone was kind, and said with a smile, “Go and do your work, I’ll take the third master around.”
