"Oh? Grandfather thinks so highly of him?" Tang Chuyao was a little surprised, and at the same time a little puzzled, "Then since the Regent is so talented, why doesn't Grandfather want his granddaughter to marry him?"
"Yaoyao, a man with talent doesn't mean he is a good husband!" Tang Chuyao instantly understood her grandfather's worries after hearing this.
"That's right, you see, your mother married your father, and your father is not a good guy!" Chi Bingren couldn't help but blurt out.
Chi Yuandao raised his hand and was about to slap him, but then he heard Tang Chuyao's voice, "He's not my father!"
Chi Yuandao hesitated for a moment, put down his hand, looked at Tang Chuyao lovingly and said, "Yaoyao, although your father is not a good husband, he is still your father!"
"If you don't want to acknowledge him, Grandfather won't force you, but he is your father after all, and no one can change that!"
"Yaoyao, it doesn't matter if your father doesn't recognize you! When you marry into the Chi family in the future, we will all be your fathers!" Chi Bingren patted his chest and promised. He had already thought about it, letting his nephew Chi Mu marry Tang Chuyao, so that their family would never be separated!
"Ahem," Chi Yuandao coughed lightly a few times to hide his embarrassment. They had discussed Tang Chuyao's marriage in Northern Xinjiang, and wanted Tang Chuyao to pick one she liked from among her cousins. However, this was a private discussion between them, so how could they say it out loud like that?
Tang Chuyao looked at Chi Yuandao and Chi Bingren in surprise and asked, "Uncle, what do you mean by this?"
Chi Yuandao simply walked to the bookshelf beside him and pretended to look for a book.
Chi Bingren said very directly, "We discussed your marriage when we were in Northern Xinjiang."
"Although the Chi family has been stationed in the northern border for a long time and the conditions are a bit difficult, if you are willing, you can pick one of your cousins to be your husband. With us elders here, I guarantee that no one will dare to bully you!"
"Have grandpa and uncle heard some rumors about me?" Tang Chuyao asked.
"Hey! The rumors outside are not credible!" Chi Bingren waved his hand and said, "Yaoyao, don't listen to other people's nonsense!"
Tang Chuyao was instantly moved to the point of tears. Her grandparents and uncles knew clearly that she had freckles on her face, yet they spread rumors of a secret relationship with Gu Huaifeng. No one would want to marry a girl like that.
The Chi family was not very prosperous. Chi Yuandao had three sons and two daughters. The two sons got married but did not take concubines. The youngest son remained unmarried. There were four grandchildren in total, three of whom were Tang Chuyao's cousins and one was her cousin.
The eldest uncle Chi Bingren has two children, Chi Yunzhou and Chi Yunning. The second uncle Chi Bingyi also has two children, twins Chi Mu and Chi Feng. The youngest uncle Chi Bingli was injured in both legs during the battle against the Northern Frontier and could not walk. He has been single for most of his life.
Aunt Chi Yue, also known as Concubine Chi, has a daughter, Princess Yongle Xiao Yufei. Tang Chuyao's mother is Chi Yuandao's youngest child.
The three cousins of the Chi family are all high-spirited young men. The Chi family has a clean and upright family tradition. They fight bravely on the battlefield and they are all heroes!
Despite her appearance, her grandparents didn't show any disgust at all and even let her choose!
In her last life, she had devoted herself to Wen Yongbo's mansion and Gu Huaifeng, and had never cared about her grandparents! What did she miss? She missed the group of people who loved her the most!
I also hurt them terribly! They were implicated by me in their previous life, and their entire family was executed!
I mistakenly handed the truth to a group of people who sucked my blood and used me!
In this life, she vowed to protect them!
Tang Chuyao was about to speak when the window was suddenly pushed open. Chi Yunzhou poked his head out and said with a grin, "It's so troublesome to choose!"
"Yaoyao, choose me!"
Suddenly a shoe flew towards Chi Yunzhou. Chi Yunzhou immediately bent down to avoid it, and stood up with a smug smile on his face, "It didn't hit me!"
Chi Bingren walked directly to the window with one bare foot, stretched out his hand to twist Chi Yunzhou's ear, and pulled him in from the window.
"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, Dad!" Chi Yunzhou grimaced in pain.
Tang Chuyao felt particularly warm when looking at these lively people.
"Have you had enough of the trouble?" Chi Yuandao yelled, and the father and son immediately stopped what they were doing and stood up straight.
Then Chi Yuandao said to Tang Chuyao with a gentle smile, "Yaoyao, what do you think?"
Tang Chuyao must marry Gu Qingchen, not only because the emperor has granted the marriage, but also to repay his kindness, and perhaps because she also cares about him a little.
But her grandfather didn't seem to mind their marriage, and Tang Chuyao didn't know how to tell him about her past life...
Chi Yuandao has always been concerned about Tang Chuyao's growth, and often exchanges letters with Ke Wuwei. Ke Wuwei always asks him to draw a picture for Tang Chuyao on her birthday, and sends the picture to the Chi family in Northern Xinjiang...
From another perspective, Chi Yuandao and the others also watched Tang Chuyao grow up, it was just a portrait.
As time goes by, Tang Chuyao and Chi Ran in the painting look more and more alike!
Especially those eyes, clear and lively.
What they couldn't imagine was that after Tang Chuyao was taken back to Wen Yongbo's mansion three years ago, she either had spots on her face or had rumors about being with other men!
They don't want to make assumptions about others, nor do they want to think badly of others, but how come the children they watched grow up become like this?
Therefore, Chi Yuandao and his team returned to Beijing not only to celebrate Emperor Song Wen's birthday, but also to bring Tang Chuyao back to Northern Xinjiang so that they could raise their own child!
At this time, Chi Bingren asked, "Yaoyao, what's wrong with your face?"
Tang Chuyao reached out and took off her veil, revealing a stunning face, and looked at the three of them with a bright smile.
"Plop!" The book in Chi Yuandao's hand fell to the ground, and the three of them looked surprised.
Chi Yunzhou had a look of fascination on his face. His little cousin was so pretty, like a fairy!
This is what he remembers his cousin to look like!
"Grandfather, uncle, brother, the rumors you heard are not all rumors!"
"I was poisoned before, and it was Master Hua Wangshu, the Regent, who saved me!"
"In fact, I was poisoned. If the Regent hadn't provided me with several boxes of precious medicinal herbs, I'm afraid my granddaughter would have lived for a few years..."
I stood there in a daze for a few moments. This was too much information to take in.
So the Regent is still Yaoyao's life-saving grace?
The Chi family's consistent family tradition is to repay a drop of kindness with a spring of gratitude!
Asking them to reject Gu Qingchen now is a bit like destroying the bridge after crossing it!
Tang Chuyao poured herself a cup of tea and took a few sips. She understood that her grandfather had compromised.
At least he won't interfere with her marriage with Gu Qingchen openly!
Chi Yunzhou was just the opposite. He looked dejected. His little cousin!
"Grandfather, didn't you say you would help my cousin break off the engagement even if it meant risking your life?"
"That regent is obviously a black-eyed fool!"
“How can I let my cousin marry him?” Chi Yunzhou was not dead, but was still fanning the flames.
