Chapter 176 Du Qianyuan
But soon, the open-minded Ye Wenxin figured it out.
There is a time in life that must be there, but there is no time in life, so don’t force it.
If you can't even grasp the divine inheritance delivered to your hands, then it's God's will and it's useless to force it.
The guests entered the garden one after another. After looking around the garden, the two white-haired old men walked hand in hand to the secluded corner where Lin Rong was.
Lin Rong sensed the arrival's aura early in the morning. At this moment, he turned to look in the direction where the two white-haired old men were walking, and greeted with a smile:
"Grandpa, Mr. Zhi."
The identities of the two white-haired old men were revealed with Lin Rong's greetings.
One is Du Qianyuan, the hereditary marquis and the head of the Du family, who is also Lin Rong's maternal grandfather in terms of blood relationship; the other is Zhiming, the hereditary duke and the head of the Zhi family, who has a deep connection with the Lin family.
Du Qianyuan listened to his grandson's greetings, with a gentle smile on his old face, and said cheerfully:
"Rong'er, although you have inherited the hereditary title of the Lin family, the Du family is also your family."
"But apart from the fact that you came back for my grandpa's birthday, you never came back to spend time with me as an old man."
“It’s so hard that our grandfather and grandson have to meet on such an occasion.”
With that said, Du Qianyuan walked up to Lin Rong and lovingly stroked his grandson's round little head.
Lin Rong listened to her grandfather's complaints and smiled awkwardly. She didn't reply and just let her grandfather caress her head.
Previously, because of his status as a time traveler, he had always avoided getting to know his deceased grandfather and parents, let alone taking the initiative to find his grandfather who was still alive in the world.
Only for his grandfather's birthday every year, he couldn't find a reason not to go, so he had to go.
"Rong'er, it seems that you already know that Ye Xiaozi likes Yuyin, oh, it's your mother's business."
Du Qianyuan sat down next to Lin Rong, turned to look at Ye Wenxin, who was sitting on his right, and joked in a joking tone:
"Speaking of which, if it weren't for the Ye family's inheritance of martial arts, it would really be possible for Yu Yin to be with your kid. After all, Yu Yin hadn't met Ronger's father at that time."
"Old Du, you can't say for sure." Zhiming sat down next to Du Qianyuan and interjected:
"If the Ye family had no restrictions on inheriting martial arts spirits, Marquis Ye would not necessarily be the Marquis Ye now, right?"
"That's right!" The two old men looked at each other and smiled.
Later, Du Qianyuan brought the topic to the part that Lin Rong least wanted to hear.
"Rong'er, the young master of Qibao Glazed Sect is only more than a month older than you in terms of age."
"But now she has someone she likes and is engaged. Shouldn't you also consider this matter?"
This is what the older generation likes to say when facing single younger generations - urging marriage.
This was the case in the previous life, and it is even more so in this life, and because people here mature precociously, the age at which people get married is generally earlier than in the previous life.
Lin Rong didn't want to go to his grandfather, partly for this reason. He didn't want to be forced to get married.
"Grandpa, this grandson has his own plans, so you don't need to worry about it." Lin Rong replied, intending to end the topic directly.
"From what Rong'er means, is it possible that you already have someone you like?" Du Qianyuan guessed, stroking his beard, turned to look at the old housekeeper behind Lin Rong, and asked:
"Mr. Yu, you brought Rong'er up from childhood. Tell me, does Rong'er have a sweetheart?"
Faced with this question, the old housekeeper did not answer, just smiled and shook his head. "Okay, Grandpa." Lin Rong threw herself into Grandpa's arms and pulled the snow-white beard under Grandpa's chin with both hands to express her dissatisfaction.
"This is my own business, I have my own plans."
"Instead of urging me here, you should urge my cousins more. They are many years older than me, and they are still single!"
"Okay, okay, grandpa knows. Grandson, please let go first, let go." Du Qianyuan said in pain.
Although his grandson only met him a few times, they never got along with each other. He had been this way since he was a child, and he was not afraid of strangers at all.
Unlike his grandchildren, since they became wise, their grandfathers and grandchildren have been a little reserved when getting along because they were afraid of his majesty and did not dare to look him in the eye.
Regarding this point, Du Qianyuan believed that it was because his grandson was a hereditary duke himself, and his status was higher than his own.
Therefore, even after understanding, he will not be afraid because of his status as a hereditary marquis.
As for not being afraid of strangers, it may be due to his nature, or it may be because the old housekeeper took good care of his grandson.
On the side, Ye Wenxin looked at her grandfather and grandson playing around and thought to herself:
"It seems that the Duke did not tell his grandfather and Marquis Zhi about his plan to seize the Tiandou throne."
Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)
"But yes, the Du family is the natal family of the Duke's mother, and the relationship between the Zhi family and the Lin family is even more profound."
"At least in the Duke's generation, the three families are both prosperous and disadvantaged. If the Lin family wants to seize the throne, the two families have no other choice but to support it."
"The more people know about this kind of thing, the greater the risk of exposure."
"The Duke did not tell them about this matter in advance, probably to reduce the risk of this matter being exposed."
Ye Wenxin thought so, turned around and looked around the garden, and found that in the whole garden, they were the only ones without female dependents.
There are four families here: Lin, Ye, Du, and Zhi.
Lin Rong is the only one in the Lin family.
There were only him and his daughter Ye Lingling in the Ye family. Because his daughter didn't like this kind of occasion, the only person who came was Ye Wenxin.
The Du family and the Zhi family are prosperous, but the two old marquises are old and their wives have passed away long ago. For unknown reasons, they did not bring their younger members to attend.
As a result, their place became the only place in the entire garden where there were no women.
"Wait a minute, I seem to have missed it. There is another place where there are no women." Ye Wenxin stared at a pavilion in the garden, where only two young people were sitting.
"It's the Tang Sect's leader, and his little follower."
Under the pavilion, Tang San sat there, with an air of "don't let strangers enter" on his face, and persuaded all the guests who wanted to go over to greet him, including those noble ladies who were very interested in him.
There is no one among the guests present who is not a distinguished person.
They were usually aloof and aloof, but they would not put aside their status and face to take the initiative to look down on Tang San's ice face.
Especially in the royal family's attitude towards Yuexuan's handling of the matter, they were all vaguely aware of the subtle changes that had taken place in the relationship between the Tang Sect and the royal family.
Between the royal family and the Tang Sect, of course they chose the former without hesitation.
