Once out of his control, who knows what will happen in the future?
As long as the position of head of the family is hanging by a thread between the two of them, Tengyuan Mari doesn't believe that they won't be tempted.
At this age, Mari Tengyuan has already seen through people's hearts.
No matter how much he prefers Teng Yuanqing, in his heart, he is still the most important.
Besides, he is only thirty years old now and can live for at least another forty years.
When he's almost old and needs a new body, the position of the head of the family will still be his. The title of the next head of the family is just a cover.
Xiao Qingran feigned surprise as she looked at Tengyuan Mari: "Is what Grandpa said true? Can I also compete with my brother for the position of Patriarch?"
Seeing Xiao Qingran so excited, Tengyuan Mari suddenly became confident in her plan.
Look, even a simple girl like Qingzi is interested in the position of head of the family, let alone Teng Yuanmu.
Although Tengyuan Mu still looked lifeless, Tengyuan Mari felt that he must have some feelings in his heart, but just didn't show it.
"Alright, when you return to your original location, ask Chu Yimeng if you have any questions. She is now in charge of all of Jiuzhou's affairs in the Imperial Capital. To prevent anyone from discovering you have left Sang Country, I'll have someone send you aboard tonight."
Xiao Qingran pretended to be reluctant to leave and looked at Tengyuan Mari: "Grandpa, after I leave, how long can I come back to see you? Will you still miss Qingzi?"
Luo Jiuyan: "..." His heart ached. If he hadn't found his father yet, he wouldn't have been able to kill the old man in front of him. He would have burned him to ashes, leaving nothing behind.
"Qingzi, Grandpa..."
Tengyuan Mari wanted to take advantage of Xiao Qingran before she left. She stretched out her hand, but when she saw Luo Jiuyan's cold eyes, she subconsciously retracted her hand.
After realizing his mistake, he glared at Luo Jiuyan with an uneasy look on his face: "Okay, go over there and take care of Qingzi."
He looked at Xiao Qingran with a loving face again: "Qingzi, Grandpa is reluctant to leave you. But if you want to become the head of the family, you must make more contributions to the family. Grandpa hopes that you can grow up over there. Grandpa is waiting for the day when you come back."
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand at the two of them and said, "Go back and pack your things! Take what you can take with you, and don't take what you can't take with you."
The two men bowed to Tengyuan Mari and left the secret room.
As soon as they came out, the two looked at each other and immediately separated.
At night, someone came to pick them up.
He is Mari Tengyuan's confidant and the father of the crazy beauty.
Along the way, the middle-aged man was sarcastic to Luo Jiuyan.
Perhaps because his daughter's leg was broken, his eyes were filled with hatred towards Luo Jiuyan.
But because Luo Jiuyan is a direct descendant of the Tengyuan family, even though he knows that Tengyuan Mari does not value Tengyuan Mu very much, he dare not avenge his daughter.
When they arrived at the dock, the two were arranged to board a cruise ship.
As soon as the two went up, they saw many people in uniform and holding weapons, checking every tourist who came up.
Seeing the crazy beauty's father coming up with two people, he immediately went to greet them.
"These two are the grandson and granddaughter of Patriarch Tengyuan. The old Patriarch arranged for them to go out and gain experience. Please give them some convenience."
The crazy beauty's father said this and quietly slipped a card into the leader's hand.
"So it's the young master and young lady of the Tengyuan family. Please come this way."
The leader glanced at Xiao Qingran and Luo Jiuyan, pointed in a direction and asked them to go over.
Seeing this, Xiao Qingran and Luo Jiuyan followed the crazy beauty's father and walked directly in that direction.
As they walked, the crazy beauty's father said sarcastically, "You two are sitting in ordinary seats on the second floor of the cruise ship. Here are two tickets. Go inside and find your seats. I'll take you here. I wish you good luck."
After he finished speaking, he couldn't wait to leave.
Xiao Qingran and Luo Jiuyan held the tickets, a hint of coldness flashing in their eyes.
This old guy, when they come next time, I will make sure he pays tribute to me.
After a day and a night, the cruise ship docked.
After getting off the cruise ship, the two discovered that this was the Tsuki Pier, which was very close to the capital.
The two did not stay for long and used the teleportation talisman to return to the capital that day.
Although the teleportation talisman brought a lot of side effects to the two of them, as long as they could go home quickly, the discomfort was no longer a concern.
I returned to the capital just in time for the Lantern Festival.
The old lady strongly requested that Xiao Qingran take Luo Jiuyan with her to the Lu family to celebrate the Lantern Festival.
Xiao Qingran asked Luo Jiuyan for his opinion.
Naturally, he wanted it very much.
But when he came, he brought a burden, Duochou, with him.
When they arrived at the Lu family, Mr. Lu heard that Duochou was Master Miaokong's disciple, and he was more enthusiastic towards him than towards Luo Jiuyan.
This made Lu Jihan, who originally disliked Luo Jiuyan, feel balanced.
With Duochou as the happy pill, the atmosphere is quite harmonious.
After dinner, Duochou mentioned the engagement of Xiao Qingran and Luo Jiuyan to Mr. and Mrs. Lu.
When he spoke, everyone fell silent and looked at him.
Although sentimental, he was not shy and went straight to the point.
"My junior brother is already quite old, and it's rare for two people to truly love each other. If they can get married soon, it will also give my master peace of mind."
Having said that, Mr. Lu did not make it too difficult and immediately looked at the old lady.
He actually hoped that his sister would make things difficult for Luo Jiuyan.
As a result, the old lady agreed directly and readily: "Then I will find someone to calculate a time tomorrow and hold an engagement party."
Duochou's smile was so severe that his teeth were visible, but his eyes were not. "Who else do I need to look for? Who can tell fortunes more accurately than my master?"
After his reminder, everyone suddenly understood.
Miaokong has obtained the support of a great monk.
In the entire Kyushu, no one can calculate more accurately than Miaokong.
"That would be great. When the two children get engaged, I wonder if Master Miaokong will come?"
Mr. Lu looked at Duochou with hope in his eyes.
Although I know that Luo Jiuyan is also Miaokong's disciple.
But in everyone's eyes, they automatically imagine that only the melancholic one is a true apprentice.
Luo Jiuyan should be a registered disciple of the secular family.
"Amitabha, of course. My master will definitely come when my junior brother gets engaged."
Duochou clasped his hands together, looking very serious.
"Okay then. Once Master Miaokong has calculated the time, please let us know as soon as possible so we can prepare."
Mr. Lu planned to hold an engagement party for Xiao Qingran and Luo Jiuyan at the Lu family's old residence, inviting only close friends and relatives.
The day after the Lantern Festival is when Xiao Qingran starts school.
When she arrived at school, Xiao Qingran discovered that many of her classmates seemed to have gained weight after the New Year.
Her deskmate's face became rounder.
"Xiao Qingran, you're so annoying! Why are everyone else getting fatter, but you're still the same? How did you grow up? Do you want to make me jealous to death?"
The classmate glared at Xiao Qingran fiercely: "How can you be beautiful alone? I don't accept it!"
