This sound caused everyone in the hall to focus their attention behind Bai Daoxi, he turned his head suddenly, and saw his father, who was giving orders to him just now, suddenly fell down.
And when he fell, he never got up again.
The old man of the Bai family can't do it anymore. He didn't make it to the deadline he announced to his family, but suddenly fell into a coma on the third day.
The Bai family was in a panic because of this. There may be a few sad people, but more of them are dazed and anxious. The old man of the Bai family has been very strong in this life. Although he is over a hundred years old, he still decides the family affairs, big and small. The first few sons either didn't survive him and died early, or they were raised by him. .
Although the heir, who had high hopes for it, was able to get it, he didn't explain his funeral at all because he believed in his own ability too much.
The moment before he fell, he was still thinking that after he succeeded in renewing his life through luck, he still had a lot of time to train Bai Yan.
Two days later, the news that the old man of the Bai family died finally came out. At the same time, it was accompanied by news of the endless civil unrest in the Bai family.
Although the old man of the Bai family had already chosen an heir, this heir was just a verbal confirmation. Before his death, he didn't have any explanation, not even the division of the inheritance, so that the other houses he suppressed during his lifetime joined forces to deal with Bai Yan.
Bai Yan is not a small person, but he is far worse than his younger brother Bai Nian in terms of how he behaves.
There are a lot of people in the imperial capital watching the fun, some just for fun, and some who know the inside story lamented that this is the evil result of not letting go of power when they are old enough to die.
If he had given up the power to train Bai Yan early, the whole family would have been scattered as soon as he died.
Of course, the chaos of the Bai family must have been fueled by outsiders. After all, their family has been prominent long enough.
When he got the news, Shi Chengxuan was still in the Chu family.
Although his family was unhappy because of his marriage, he grew up in the Chu family after all, and his long-term relationship cannot be wiped out just because of a little conflict.
For the Chu family, as long as he doesn't bring back the girl from that small place, everything is fine.
Are you in love, young people who don't have a hot brain. Even when he gets married and when he gets divorced, he is dissatisfied with the arrangements at home now, but he may not be in the future.
In the entire Chu family, except for Chu Heng and Chu Yi who had seen Tang Susu with their own eyes, everyone thought like this.
Shi Chengxuan knew this very well, but he just pretended not to know.
Today, the Chu family happened to have a visitor, and it was a friend of Mr. Chu who came. This person, surnamed Tan, lives in Hunan Province, and came all the way to the imperial capital to express condolences to the old man of the Bai family.
The old man of the Bai family passed away and was suspended for seven days. There was an endless stream of people coming and going to offer condolences. Tan Lao hurriedly came from other provinces, put incense sticks on his old friend, and brought his younger generation to visit Chu's house the next day.
Tan Lao was in his seventies, with white hair and beard, but his face was ruddy, and he looked tougher than Old Man Chu. When the old friends met, the old man Chu was very interested, and he took Mr. Tan to drink tea in the courtyard. The two laughed loudly and could be heard in the room.
Along with Mr. Tan were his two grandchildren. Chu Heng entertained them in the house, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Tan Jing and Tan Xu are both cheerful, and they can talk to Chu Heng very well, so they called him brother after a while. Shi Chengxuan sat aside and did not interrupt their conversation. He tilted his head and looked outside the room with a nonchalant look on his face.
While chatting, Tan Jing glanced at Shi Chengxuan from time to time. However, the other party had never paid attention to her, and she was too embarrassed to come forward to talk to her.
When it was time to eat 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's reasons, many people in Hunan Province have failed to chase after her, and his sister has never been interested in anyone. Today, he seems to have changed his temper, and secretly glanced at others, let alone him, it is estimated that even Chu Heng could see it.
But that's normal. Chu Heng's cousin is really good looking, and he has an aura that fascinates girls. As a man, he can't help but feel a little jealous.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Tan Xu pouted, "If you like it, I'll tell grandpa and let him find out for you. You can think about it, otherwise, when we leave, I'm afraid we won't have a chance to see him."
Tan Jing hesitated for a moment and bit his lip. She felt embarrassed after being called out by her brother, but as her brother said, if she just left, she probably wouldn't have a chance to meet again.
"Then... go and talk to grandpa for me." She whispered.
Tan Xu laughed and patted her head.
Tan Xu's work is also neat, and when he found Tan Lao, he told his sister's thoughts, Tan Lao was stunned for a while, pinched a strand of beard and pondered for a while, and this time he lifted his eyelids and looked at his grandson, "What do you think about that boy? good?"
Of course he knew about the fact that his old friend kept his grandson at home, and even he knew Shi Chengxuan's life experience better than the average person. After all, the old man Chu also asked him to give orders to this grandson.
It's a pity that his eldest son died unexpectedly at that time. He didn't have the heart to take care of others, so he left in a hurry, and he never saw the kid again. After so many years, I didn't expect to see you again today.
"Grandson's eyes are clumsy, and he doesn't see anything from his face." The Tan family also has family heritage skills, Tan Xu believes that his level is not low, but he returned home in Shi Chengxuan.
However, there are always some people in this world whose lives cannot be seen through, and he is not too entangled.
"Then you still speak for Xiaojing?" Mr. Tan looked at his grandson with a funny look.
Tan Xu touched the tip of his nose, feeling a little embarrassed, "It's rare for Xiaojing to fall in love with someone, and it's not necessarily possible. Isn't that what you meant to ask first?"
"It's not impossible. It's a pity that he doesn't have the surname Chu. When I'm done talking to your grandfather Chu, I'll ask him. If it's possible, if the two can meet each other." Tan Lao nodded in response to his grandson's request.
The descendants of the Chu family, their Tan family must not be able to climb high. However, it is not impossible for Chu Lao's grandson.
Moreover, the character of Xiaojing in his family is very good, and it is the fate of a prosperous husband. Although he still does not know what the fate of the other boy is, at least he will not be wronged. It would also be a good thing for the Tan family if they could marry the Chu family.
After sending his grandson away, Tan Lao thought about what he saw at Bai's house, and couldn't help sighing heavily.
People are in their 70s and 80s, and who doesn't want to live a peaceful life, they have encountered the bad things of the Bai family. He originally wanted to just pretend that he didn't see it, but he didn't feel good about it. After thinking about it, he came to visit an old friend and ask him for an idea.
