Chapter 178: make a decision

This sound caused everyone in the hall to focus their eyes behind Bai Daoxi. He turned his head abruptly and saw that his father who had just given orders to him suddenly fell over.
But this fell, and never got up again.
The old lady of the Bai family is not working. He didn't make it to the deadline he announced to his family, but suddenly fell into a coma on the third day.
As a result, the Bai family fell into a panic. There may be a few sad people, but more of them are at a loss and anxiety. The old lady of the Bai family is very strong in this life. Although he is over one hundred years old, he still takes charge of all matters in the family. The first few sons have not survived his early death, or they have been taken away by him. .
Although the heir who originally had high hopes can get it right, because he believes in his own ability too much, he hasn't explained his future at all.
At the moment before he fell, he was still thinking that after succeeding in extending his life through luck, he still had a lot of time to train Bai Yan.
Two days later, the news that the old Bai family's breathlessness finally spread. At the same time, it was accompanied by news of endless chaos in the Bai family.
Although the old lady of the Bai family had chosen an heir, the heir was only a verbal confirmation that he did not give any explanation before his death, and there was even no division of his estate, so that the other houses he suppressed during his lifetime joined forces to deal with Bai Yan.
Bai Yan is quite capable, but he doesn't know how much he is worse than his brother Bai Nian in terms of life. If it weren't for their house, they would have been overwhelmed long ago.
There are a lot of people watching the excitement in the imperial capital. Some are purely for fun, and some who know the inside story lamented that this is the evil result of being too old to let go of power.
If Bai Yan was cultivated by delegating power early, how could the whole family be dispersed as soon as people died.
Of course, the chaos of the Bai family must be caused by outsiders. After all, their family has been prominent for long enough.
When the news was received, Shi Chengxuan was still in the Chu family.
Although his family was unhappy because of marriage issues before, he was raised in Chu's family after all, and his many years of relationship could not be wiped out just because of a little conflict.
For the Chu family, as long as he doesn't bring the girl from that small place back, everything is fine.
When it comes to falling in love, young people who have no brains are hot. There is still a time for divorce during marriage. He is dissatisfied with the arrangements at home now, but it may not be necessary in the future.
In the entire Chu family, probably everyone except Chu Heng and Chu Yi who had seen Tang Susu personally had the same idea.
Shi Chengxuan knew this well, and he just didn't know it.
Today, a visitor from the Chu family happened to be visiting, and it was a friend of Mr. Chu's visitor. This man was named Tan and lived in Hunan Province. He came to the imperial capital to express condolences to the old man of the Bai family.
The old lady of the Bai family passed away, and the spirits ceased for seven days, and there was an endless stream of mourning. Lao Tan hurriedly came from other provinces, gave his old friend a stick of incense, and the next day he brought his younger generation to visit the Chu family.
Old Tan was in his seventies, with white beard and hair, but his face was ruddy and he looked tougher than Mr. Chu. When the old friends met, Mr. Chu was in high spirits, and he took Mr. Tan to drink tea in the courtyard. The two said that they laughed loudly, and they could all hear him in the room.
With Lao Tan, there was his pair of grandchildren. Chu Heng entertained them in the house, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Tan Jing and Tan Xu were both cheerful temperaments, and they had a good conversation with Chu Heng, and soon changed their slogans to his brother. Shi Chengxuan sat aside, without intervening in their conversation, he tilted his head and looked outside, with a casual expression on his face.
While chatting, Tan Jing glanced at Shi Chengxuan from time to time. But the other party hasn't paid any attention to her, and she is embarrassed to come forward to talk.
When she was eating at noon, she was pulled aside by her brother and asked in a low voice, "Did you like Chu Heng's cousin?"
Tan Xu knows his sister very well. For so many years, because of his grandfather, I don't know how many people in Hunan Province want to chase her sister down, and his sister has never been interested in anyone. Today, he turned his temper, and secretly glanced at others, let alone him, it is estimated that even Chu Heng could see it.
But this is also normal. Chu Heng's cousin does look good, and he still has a temperament that fascinates girls. As a man, he can't help but feel a little jealous.
"What nonsense are you talking about."
Tan Xu curled his lips, "If you are interested, I will tell Grandpa and let him find out for you. You can figure it out, otherwise, when we leave, I'm afraid there will be no chance to see him."
Tan Jing hesitated and bit her lip. She feels not very embarrassed to be broken by her brother, but as her brother said, if she leaves like this, there will probably be no chance to meet again.
"Then... Go and help me talk to Grandpa." She whispered.
Tan Xu laughed and patted her head.
Tan Xu is also neat in his work. When he found Mr. Tan, he told his sister’s thoughts. Mr. Tan was taken aback, pinched a strand of beard and muttered for a while. This time he raised his eyelids and looked at his grandson, "Do you think that kid Not bad?"
Of course he knew about the old friend raising his grandson at home, and he even knew Shi Chengxuan's life experience better than ordinary people. After all, Mr. Chu had also asked him to give orders to this grandson.
It's a pity that his eldest son died in an accident at that time. He no longer had the mind to take care of others, so he hurriedly left, and never saw that kid again. After so many years, I didn't expect to see you again today.
"Sun Tzu has clumsy eyes and can't see anything from his face." The Tan family also has family skills. Tan Xu, who believes that his level is not low, came home from Shi Chengxuan.
However, the lives of some people in this world cannot be seen clearly, and he is not too entangled.
"Then you still pass on for Xiaojing?" Tan Lao looked at his grandson amused.
Tan Xu touched the tip of his nose, a little embarrassed, "Xiao Jing is rarely seen as an individual, and she may not be able to succeed. Didn't this mean to ask you first?"
"It's not impossible, because he doesn't have the surname Chu. When I finish talking to your grandfather Chu, please ask him, if possible, if the two can match each other." Old Tan nodded and responded to his grandson's request.
The descendants of the Chu family, their Tan family must be unattainable. But Chu Lao's grandson is not impossible.
Moreover, his family's Xiaojing character is very good, it is the life style of Wanfu, although the other boy's life style is still unknown, at least he will not be wronged. If you can marry the Chu family, it would be a good thing for the Tan family.
After sending his grandson away, Tan Lao thought about seeing what he saw at the Bai's house, and couldn't help sighing heavily.
People are in their seventies and eighties. Who doesn't want to live in peace and stability, but encounters the bad things of the Bai family. He originally wanted to just treat it as if he didn't see it, but he didn't feel like it in his heart. He came to visit his old friend after thinking about it and ask him to get an idea.
