Chapter 387 Rootless Duckweed
Yu Ruilin smiled gently, "Okay! Thank you for your teachings, I'll take note of it."
Yu Mu glanced at his sister in dissatisfaction and refused, "I have never had the last name Shen!"
Seeing him so angry, Shen Yu couldn't help but hold his little face and said, "Don't even think about it. Even if you want to be named Shen, I won't agree. You can only be my slave for the rest of your life. If someone else takes your name away from you, who will I cry to?"
Yu Mu curled his lips slightly and said, "Okay."
Qing Li on the side looked up at the sky feeling a little guilty. In fact, even if his surname was not Shen, someone would have snatched it away.
Desire...
Yu Ruilin stared blankly at the interaction between the brother and sister, as if thinking about something. The question that had puzzled him since childhood finally got the answer at this moment.
Neither his father nor he had ever had any ambitions, but the surname "Mu" was like a cage that trapped them. They could not get out and others could not get in. They were kept in the Ji family for generation after generation, and both sides followed the ancestral precepts, one was responsible for raising and the other was responsible for being raised.
My father said that they could not leave the Ji family, as if they fell into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, their fate would be unpredictable.
Mr. Ji said that they were hiding in the Ji family not for themselves, but to save the people from the war.
He couldn't understand why they were so afraid of nothing except the surname Mu.
It turns out to be desire...
Their existence will make some people have inappropriate expectations. Even if they don't have ambitions, those who are ambitious will always find opportunities and even act under their banner...
He looked at the happy family over there with worry. Would the problem be solved if he was willing to have the surname Yu?
No, his joining would only drag his sister and the others into an irretrievable situation. He suddenly regretted his impulsiveness...he was too greedy.
"Sister, Princess, why don't we just forget it... I can't let you get involved!" His tone was serious and the classroom fell silent.
Yu Mu also raised his eyes to look at him, thinking that he deliberately didn't mention it. It turned out that he hadn't thought of it before. His favorability towards him suddenly increased.
Seeing that Shen Yu had not answered, Ruilin bit her lip and explained, "Wang..."
"I'm glad that you care about the safety of your younger brothers and sisters..." Shen Yu didn't let him speak.
Of course she was not angry. If she hadn't thought the matter through, she would never have made the invitation. After all, the baby she picked up this time was different. He was a hot commodity in the eyes of some people, but what if... he was no longer popular?
"Rui Lin, do you know what your Mu family lacks the most?"
"A legitimate identity?"
Shen Yu's eyes were fixed on him. The reason why he knew about Rui Lin's existence was because of the rumor that the descendants of the Ji and Su families had opened the treasure.
At first, I just felt sympathy for him. A bloodline that was protected by every possible means, but I don't know why it was passed down? He is out of place in this country. He shouldn't appear in Linyue, but he can only live in Linyue. He is so similar to me...
But she didn't expect that after all these twists and turns, this person would actually step into her life?
Ever since she learned that Mr. Ji was going to visit with "that servant boy", she had roughly guessed the other party's intention. Prince Zhuo's Mansion could take him in, but what was the difference between this and staying in the Ji family?
After living in one family for a hundred years, he switched to another family to live in?
Try not to go out, can't go to school, no relatives or friends? Zhuocheng's National Mid-Autumn Festival this year has nothing to do with him. He can't go to see the newly renovated Xi County. If she has to live like this, she would rather choose to die.
In this case, since fate has arrived, she decided to reach out and help him.
"No, what you lack is a sense of belonging, what you lack is roots!"
Ruilin's pupils constricted, as if something was taking root in his heart.
Shen Yu walked slowly closer, gently took his hand, and guided him to lower his head slightly, his eyes full of tenderness and understanding.
She raised her hand, her fingertips shuttled through his hair, gently stroking it, as if it could soothe all worries and anxieties, "Don't worry, sister is as clear as a mirror, although you have concerns, I understand, don't be afraid, it's okay, you will be at ease to take root in our family in the future, you will no longer be a rootless duckweed, my family is your family, you will be Mu Ruilin of the Yu family in the future, and you will be treated as a relative of the Ji family in the future. After all, your relationship has lasted for more than a hundred years, it would be a pity to break it off!"
She hesitated for a moment, then smiled and took his hand, placing it on her slightly bulging belly, "Look! Here is one of your nephews and nieces. In the future, you will get married and have children of your own, and you will have many nephews and nieces... Yu Ruilin, don't be afraid, you have me, Yu Mu and the others, believe us, okay?"
"And me, Brother Ruilin!"
Yang'er's broken leg squeezed in between the two of them. Yu Mu hurriedly pulled her sister back. She was pregnant. "Yang'er, don't push us!"
"I'm not Yang'er, I'm Yu Nieyang," he looked at Ruilin seriously and said, "Brother, don't be afraid, you can call me Yu Mu Ruilin from now on!"
During the time they were chatting just now, little Nie Yang racked his brains and finally came up with a solution. He is not an orphan and cannot change his gender, so he can just add the word "Yu" in front of his original surname!
Encouraged by the child's innocent big eyes, Ruilin's heart seemed to be caressed by a gentle breeze, causing layers of delicate ripples. He was still immersed in an indescribable trance. Only the hand held by his sister still retained the warmth, which was deep and made people attached.
He choked up and said "hmm", then looked up at Shen Yu with a relieved smile, "Of course I believe in you, sister..." He tried to hold Shen Yu's hand again, "Don't worry, sister, I will work hard and will be your solid support in the future."
Yu Ruilin thought a lot in a split second just now. Mr. Ji really treated him as his own family member, which was why he brought someone of his status and background to the palace... He never had any ambitions, but that didn't mean he couldn't be ruthless.
If someone really dares to use him to do something... In order to protect the family members in front of him, he will try to fight for that position if necessary!
Master Ji knows him so well, looking at his eyes that show he wants but doesn't dare to have it, and then becomes determined to die together... Hey, what else doesn't he understand?
He looked at this "family" with complicated eyes. Tsk! All the smart ones are in the same family, but he was more distressed. The Ji family has been handed over to his son. He is old and he has no power to influence whether the Ji family will continue to inherit. But the Mu family only has this kid left, so he has to find a place to protect him.
The person he had originally set his sights on was Lu Yingxing. Although his grandson had not been raised by his side since childhood, his ability and character were unquestionable. However, during the investigation, he unexpectedly discovered Shen Yu...
