After lunch, Mr. and Mrs. Chi went back to their own home.
Little Lock and Longevity were also with them.
During this time, Changsheng wanted to stay with his mother, and Sister-in-law Chi, having survived the ordeal, did not want to refuse. So she talked to Jianchi Rufan properly before finally getting her to agree.
"Little Wu, that kid, he's really gotten addicted to playing!"
Thinking of her youngest son, Aunt Chi couldn't help but complain.
Speaking of which, the youngest son was initially assigned a job by the eldest son: to work on the charity.
But once things were on track, Xiao Wu was worried that her family would arrange other things for her, so she just left!
He said he went off to explore the world with his friends!
"Tell me, none of his older brothers are like him! I thought the third brother would be the most worrying, but I never expected the fifth one to be so outstanding!"
Aunt Chi kept nagging and complaining.
Is the outside world really that great?
Mrs. Zhang smiled and comforted him, "Children always want to go out and see the world. Once they've seen enough, they'll realize that home is the best and they'll come back."
Ike Nagahiro also said, "That's right, maybe Xiao Wu will become a great swordsman someday!"
"What's all this talk about heroes and great heroes? I just hope he's safe and sound."
Aunt Chi sat down, clutching her chest, and started chatting with Mrs. Zhang about everyday matters.
Naturally, he couldn't stop talking about the pond and crabapple trees.
Feeling overwhelmed by the double love, Chi Tang immediately ran away.
"Sister-in-law, I didn't mean anything by it. I just think that Tangtang is so smart, you should hire a tutor for her to teach her at home."
Mrs. Zhang spoke cautiously.
It would be a real shame if such a clever little girl weren't properly raised.
"Oh! Sister-in-law, thank you for reminding us! We really hadn't thought about that!"
Aunt Chi slapped her thigh repeatedly.
Old Man Chi bluntly said, "That's why we peasants are so useless! We never even considered hiring a tutor for Tangtang."
In their minds, daughters should be pampered.
But their pampering means giving them whatever they want, showing them extra care, attention, and money.
Although I always thought about sending my children and grandchildren to school, I never thought about sending Tangtang to school.
It's also because of their living environment and the fact that none of the people they know are like that.
That's why they never even thought about this issue.
"Brother, that's an overly modest statement. Are you still peasants?"
"That's right, that's right. I know, brother. It's just a family habit. There aren't many families who can afford to send their sons and grandsons to school, let alone their daughters."
Chi Yongguang comforted him.
Old Man Chi readily agreed, saying, "That's right, I've never heard of any school accepting young girls."
You really have no sense of right and wrong.
"I've never heard of this place before. I wonder if we can find a good gentleman here."
Aunt Chi was already starting to worry.
Her daughter is so smart, she deserves the best husband!
Madam Zhang said with a smile, "Don't you know that young master Huo? You can ask him."
“Yes, yes, we can ask Chenyi.” Aunt Chi nodded.
In this regard, Chenyi definitely knows more.
“Brother, please don’t blame me for being abrupt. I only said this because I’m thinking of Tangtang,” Chi Yongguang suddenly said.
Old Man Chi was completely bewildered: "What's wrong?"
Chi Yongguang licked his lips and said excitedly, "Look how beautiful and smart Tangtang is. You wouldn't want her to marry anyone, right?"
"Of course."
"So, have you ever thought about Chenyi?"
"Um?"
Old Man Chi didn't react at first.
Aunt Chi, being more perceptive, immediately asked, "You mean you want us to consider Tangtang and Chenyi being together?"
"That's right, Chenyi has such a good relationship with you all, and you know him well. He's a good match for Tangtang!"
Although Chi Yongguang likes his niece, he has to admit that there is a huge gap between them in terms of social status.
If Tangtang could marry Huo Chenyi, that would be the best choice for her.
He only spoke up because he saw that his elder brother and sister-in-law hadn't thought about it at all.
Madam Zhang chimed in, "Although I was a little scared when I first saw Young Master Huo's eyes, seeing how gentle and friendly he was to you all, I felt less scared and even thought his eyes were truly beautiful."
Purple eyes—I've never seen anything like it before.
Fear is the first feeling.
But after spending time with her, Mrs. Zhang found those eyes to be incredibly beautiful.
Its colors are magnificent and its surface shimmers with light.
"He is so highly regarded by His Majesty. He is still young. In a few years, it will be certain that he will be ennobled and appointed as prime minister!"
Chi Yongguang's breathing became heavy.
If he could have such a nephew-in-law, wouldn't he also benefit from it?
Of course, it's best to benefit from it.
It's okay if I can't benefit from her marriage. As long as my niece is well-married and doing well, that's all that matters.
Can elders really expect younger generations to help them get by?
"Third brother, sister-in-law, the two children are still young, it's too early to talk about this."
Aunt Chi was deeply moved by what the two men said.
But not to the point of losing one's rationality.
The child is still young; it's too early to say anything now.
"It's getting late. Young Master Huo is ten years old now, isn't he? In another three years, the wealthy families in the capital will definitely be eyeing Young Master Huo like hungry wolves eyeing food! By then, it will be too late to make a move."
"What do you mean by too late or too early? My daughter won't go and compete with those people for anything."
Old Man Chi didn't like hearing that.
