Seeing Ran Qi's firm and indifferent attitude, Liu's anger was instantly ignited. She widened her eyes, pointed at Ran Qi and shouted angrily: "It seems that you are so arrogant and great just because you became a general! You even dare not listen to me!"

Ran Qi frowned slightly, his face gloomy, but he still tried to control his emotions and responded in a deep voice: "This matter concerns the future and reputation of the General's Mansion. I have to consider it carefully. Everything I do is for the better development of the General's Mansion."

However, Liu was completely unwilling to listen to Ran Qi's explanation. She snorted coldly, swung her sleeves angrily, turned around and walked away quickly. Because she was too angry, her steps seemed a little staggering, as if she would fall at any time.

Today was the first time that she had been treated like this - she was refuted by her own son in front of many servants, which made her feel humiliated. At this moment, she even felt extremely disgusted when she looked at Ran Qi for another second.

While the mother and son were quarreling fiercely on this side, the second uncle and the third uncle on the other side seemed to be calm and composed, as if they were not involved.

To them, the dispute between Ranqi and Liu was totally unimportant; all they cared about was the future and fate of their own children.

Therefore, although Liu was extremely dissatisfied with Ranqi's decision, the second and third uncles still chose to stand on Ranqi's side without hesitation and expressed their full support for his decision. After all, in their eyes, personal feelings are far less important than family interests.

Afterwards, Ran Qi immediately ordered his second and third uncles: "Tomorrow, each of you will send two children to the mansion. Together with Ran Liang, there will be five people in total."

Hearing this, the second and third uncles' faces instantly showed joy. Because no matter whether Ran Qi really wanted to choose another heir or it was just a formality, for them, it meant another rare opportunity.

Moreover, if their grandson could receive Ran Qi's careful teaching, it would not be impossible for him to become a general in the future. Thinking of this, they were filled with joy and expectation, and naturally agreed without hesitation.

After the second and third uncles left, the originally planned adoption ceremony for Ran Liang was naturally cancelled. When Ran Chen heard the news, he was in the room and was immediately furious.

He racked his brains but couldn't figure out what went wrong and why Ran Qi changed his mind so abruptly? Everything was set in stone and there was no change, but now such an unexpected change happened at the critical moment.

In contrast, Ran Liang seemed much calmer and composed. Not only was he not as angry as Ran Chen, but he also patiently comforted him, "Dad, you don't have to worry too much about this matter. After all, I am his nephew! As long as I am more filial and respectful to him from now on, the throne of the heir to the general's mansion will definitely belong to me in the end."

Ranchen knew that his son had always been smart, and since Ranliang said so, he thought it could only be so.

After Liu returned to her room, she had a huge tantrum, cursing Ran Qi. Her personal nanny was so scared that she hurriedly drove away the servants in the yard and persuaded her for a long time before she calmed down.

While Liu and Ran Chen were still immersed in their anger about the incident, they had no idea that Ran Qi had quietly found Ran Ran's husband - Fan Qi.

Speaking of this range, he was just a juren with outstanding appearance. Back then, he was full of joy and thought that as long as he could marry into the general's mansion, he would be able to rise to prominence and rise to prominence. However, reality gave him a heavy blow. A long time has passed since his marriage, but he has never been able to get any chance of promotion.

Fan Que was naturally very clear in his mind that all this was due to the General's Mansion's intentional suppression of him. Although he was extremely depressed, he knew that he could not vent his anger on Ran Ran. After all, she was the daughter of the General's Mansion, and he would never dare to offend her easily.

So, helpless, he could only complain to Ran Ran frequently, hoping that she would return to the General's Mansion to plead for him for the sake of their relationship. Unfortunately, even so, it was still ineffective in the end.

Today, when he learned that Ran Qi had actually taken the initiative to come and meet him, Fan Que was overjoyed and thought to himself, "Maybe the opportunity I've been waiting for has finally arrived!"

With such earnest expectations, Fan Que hurried towards the agreed place. At this moment, his heart was as hot as a bonfire, burning with a strong desire that this meeting could change his destiny.

As expected, just as Fan Que guessed, Ran Qi came here to give him a rare opportunity. However, Fan Que never expected that Ran Qi's next words were like a bolt from the blue, shocking him.

Ran Qi opened her red lips and said slowly, "You have been married for more than a few years, but the wife is still the only one accompanying you in the backyard. Ran Ran likes lively places by nature, so she will inevitably feel dissatisfied in such a quiet and cold environment. Besides, which man in the world doesn't have many wives and concubines?"

Hearing these words, he was confused for a moment. Could it be that he had completely misunderstood Ran Ran's meaning before?

Could it be that Ran Ran really wanted him to take a concubine? But when he thought of Ran Ran's gentle appearance and her deep affection for him, Fan Que shook his head without hesitation and said to himself, "This is absolutely impossible! There must be something strange going on. Maybe this is just a test set up by Ran Ran on purpose."

Thinking of this, Fan Qun couldn't help but frown, secretly wondering how to deal with this confusing situation.

So Fan Qu expressed his loyalty to the general with a sincere face: "General, you must believe me! I am wholeheartedly loyal to Ran Er, and I absolutely have no second thoughts!"

However, Ran Qi just smiled coldly after hearing this, and said slowly: "Humph, judging from your appearance, it's no wonder that you are destined to be only a small official."

When Fan Que heard this, he became anxious and bowed quickly and asked, "General, please tell me clearly! I really don't know where I am not doing well enough, and I hope you can give me some advice."

Ran Qi narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at the range for a while, and then slowly said: "It's very simple. If you want to make a difference, it's useless to just talk. And..." At this point, Ran Qi deliberately paused, and then continued: "I know you like Ran Ran in your heart, but I tell you clearly now, not only can you not show it, but you must torture her at home and let her know who is the real boss. Only in this way can you get my appreciation and reuse."

After hearing what Ran Qi said, Fan Que was stunned for a moment, and then he began to ponder in his heart. He originally thought that Ran Qi was just testing him, but he didn't expect that the other party was serious and wanted him to torture Ran Ran.

At once, Fan Que thought of Ran Qi's purpose, but he couldn't figure it out. Why did Ran Qi do this? Was it because they were not getting along?

Then, he went to great lengths to marry Ran Ran, so wasn't that a wrong move? No wonder he had been suppressed by Ran Qi for so many years and had already hated Ran Ran in his heart.
