Chapter 669 - 668: When Parents Love Their Child, They Plan Far Ahead
Wang Yongzhu blinked her eyes innocently and turned to look at Song Chongjin, "Brother Song, after you and your father recognize each other, you will be going separate ways, won’t you? Does that make you sad?"
Song Chongjin didn’t even lift his head, "Not sad."
Wang Yongzhu looked at Song Hong with innocence, "You see, Brother Song is not sad."
Song Hong...
"Maid, look, I’ve been struggling outside for most of my life, and only then have I earned such a large estate. Not to mention anything else, my Duke Weiguo Residence now holds some standing in the eyes of the Emperor in Capital City. Why do you think I did this? Isn’t it for my descendants? The only people I have wronged in this life are Chongjin’s mother and him alone, and now that we have finally recognized each other, I truly wish to make some amends. I’ll also set things straight for you, if you come back to Capital City with me and find yourselves tired of living in the mansion, I have some manors and a large house outside. You can pick any one you prefer to live in without feeling confined by the rules of the mansion, how about that?"
As soon as the words fell, Song Chongjin’s hand, peeling sunflower seeds, paused.
Wang Yongzhu’s face also grew serious; she had originally intended to go along with Song Hong’s remarks, to listen to more of what shameless things he could say.
But this arrangement, while claiming to care for Song Chongjin and giving him preferential treatment, in reality still treats him as an illegitimate child who is not presentable in public, not even allowed to enter Duke’s Mansion. What kind of recognition is this, to which family does he belong? Is this to go to Capital City just to become a laughingstock for others?
"Lord Duke, I have a question that I really don’t understand," Wang Yongzhu didn’t beat around the bush. It seemed with someone like Song Hong, unless she spoke plainly, he would keep feigning ignorance.
