Chapter 169 - 161 Heart Knot
"Why would I lie to you?" Uncle Lu earnestly nodded.
Ah, though my second brother is generally a good person, he is sometimes too rigidly committed to "keeping his word" and inflexible. Considering how he took the initiative on this issue, wouldn’t our grandfather also be unable to scold him when they meet?
But what if he does get scolded? Currently, the second branch of the family doesn’t have a grandson yet. As the eldest brother, he has always been cared for by his younger brother. How many favors has our branch of the family received from the second branch over the years? How could he not consider their needs now?
So, he decided to be the "bad guy." If our grandfather and the third brother and his wife want to scold someone, let them scold him. He’s not afraid; he knows he’s done nothing wrong.
"The current policy allows for only one child, but when you and your sister-in-law gave Aiguo up for adoption, I recall you didn’t report the death of the third brother’s child. Let’s just give the child a name now and register him under the third brother’s name, so later on, Aiguo’s wife can have another child under his name."
Uncle Lu had been mulling over this plan since Aiguo acknowledged his biological parents.
Uncle Lu’s footsteps halted as he seriously considered the possibility.
Uncle Lu didn’t disturb him, standing silently to the side and smoking.
"Alright," Uncle Lu figured it out and his mood suddenly lightened.
"Why not strike while the iron is hot? I’ll go see Uncle Four this afternoon to make the amendments to the family register." Uncle Lu was also very happy.
