"That's right, Zhang Wang didn't lie to you. He is the only son of the family, but our Ke Xin is also the only daughter of the Zhang family. One son and one daughter, no problem."
This counts?
Is this possible?
No matter how Tang Rao thinks about it, he feels that Zhang Wang must be aware. Then considering the situation at Kao Shan Shop, where Zhang Wang was eager for Tang Rao to co to the Zhang family, saying that Grandpa has many treasured items, these words felt more like a trap. The old and the young thoroughly ensnared Tang Rao.
Although it's just suspicion, Tang Rao has enough reason to suspect that Zhang Wang and the old man are in cahoots.
"It seems Zhang Wang is scheming against . Old man, you see, your granddaughter doesn't seem willing to see . How about I pursue her alone? In case she's soft-hearted, she might agree to be with ?"
Tang Rao, with so many wives at ho, had indeed thought about bringing this baby-faced voluptuous woman ho. But bringing her ho is easy; genuinely living together is challenging. With so many wives, it would be hard for Tang Rao to manage them all.
"No, no, no. I can see right through your intentions. Ke Xin is different from other girls. You might manage to pursue others with effort, but our Ke Xin, if I don't help you, it'll be hard for you to win her over!"
The old man knows his treasured granddaughter's temperant—ignorant of worldly matters, unwilling to even interact with n, living entirely in her own world.
"It's okay. I know it's difficult. I also know there's a type of feeling in this world that can move heaven and earth. As long as I try hard, I can succeed. If I can't, it might be because I, Tang Rao, am truly unworthy of your granddaughter."
For the first ti, the old man saw a man who, after witnessing Ke Xin's appearance, could remain composed and think clearly. Such people are truly rare.
Just from this point alone, the old man felt that Tang Rao was soone with potential.
"Young man, you are really impressive. I admire you. Since that's the case, I won't force it. Let's see how you young people want to develop."
The old man's words finally allowed Tang Rao to breathe a sigh of relief.
However, Zhang Kexin felt a sudden emptiness in her heart after being rejected by a man.
"Thank you, old man. Co on, let teach you Tai Chi now. I'm telling you, if you practice well, it can strengthen your body and prolong life, absolutely no problem."
After hearing this, the old man's eyes lit up. He's always wanted to grasp more insights from it, and if it also has the effect of prolonging life, that would be the best.
People of their age group all wish to live a bit longer.
"That would be perfect. You are indeed promising. If I don't bring you in as my grandson-in-law, I would regret it for the rest of my life."
So the old man's na is Zhang Yunfei. Just hearing the na, one can feel his imposing aura.
"Old man, there's no need to be polite with . I've learned a bit of dicine. Although my skills aren't as strong as yours, and I can't determine your strength level, I can tell from one look about your physical condition. How about this: after learning the Tai Chi Boxing forms, I'll refine an Elixir Pill based on your physical condition to help condition your body, achieving twice the result with half the effort. What do you think?"
That would naturally be the best.
Before Tang Rao visited the old man, Zhang Wang had already put in a good word for him, including talking about Tang Rao's strength and talents.
If it weren't for Zhang Wang telling the old man so much, given his personality, he wouldn't have t with Tang Rao, let alone introduced his granddaughter to him.
"Good. I didn't expect you to be a Pill Master. The Zhang family knows quite a few Pill Masters, but I've never t one as young as you."
The Zhang family is quite a prestigious family. Besides the main branch, there are many extended branches. In such a complex web of relations, the people the old man knows are like a dense spiderweb, ranging from those who accumulate good deeds to those who commit all sorts of evil.
"I'm just dabbling. It's already quite good that the old man doesn't think I'm harming you."
With a pout, Tang Rao explained the Tai Chi Boxing forms to the old man.
Although the old man said nothing, Tang Rao was aware that people of such age and from prominent families are afraid of being poisoned by a Poison Pill.
"What are you thinking, kid? People are people, but I'm not a suspicious old man."
The old man glanced at Tang Rao unhappily, but Tang Rao's straightforwardness and the courage to say anything improved the old man's impression of him even more.
Previously, when Zhang Wang called Tang Rao 'big brother' and displayed great loyalty, the old man was angry. But seeing it now, what's there to be angry about? He should give Zhang Wang a thumbs-up and praise him; the kid truly has an eye for talent and didn't disappoint the old man.
"Old man, I'll perform the Tai Chi Boxing three tis: the first ti you watch, the second ti you morize, and the third ti you comprehend. For soone as smart as you, three tis should be enough, right?"
Three tis are indeed enough for soone with the vast experience of the old man.
If he couldn't even rember this, he wouldn't have been so prominent when he secretly learned others' cultivation techniques and martial arts before.
Three tis, three tis are enough.
After Tang Rao finished the first ti, the old man had already understood the moves thoroughly. When he finished the second ti, he felt refreshed and found it more useful than going into seclusion. After the third ti, he was so excited that he gripped Tang Rao's hand with a beaming face.
"Tang Rao, no, grandson-in-law, you've taught your family's secret skill. This skill is extraordinary, yet I only want to match my granddaughter to you. Truly, I'm taking advantage of you. So, I'll gather all the Zhang family mbers later and publicly pass on the Zhang family's heirloom to you."
Poof, cough, cough.
Even if it's a joke, the old man shouldn't jest this far.
"Old man, I've never thought of wanting the Zhang family's heirloom. You agreeing to Zhang Wang and working hard together is already extrely satisfying. If you call back the Zhang family mbers and give the heirloom in front of everyone, wouldn't I beco the public enemy of the whole Zhang family? That kid Zhang Wang is great. In the future, I an soday, if Zhang Wang can inherit the Zhang family and has the capability to beco the Zhang Family Patriarch, you should give the heirloom to him then."
Considering the old man and Zhang Wang as his own people, Tang Rao made such selfless remarks. If it were anyone else, it would be surprising if Tang Rao didn't eagerly hasten to get the heirloom.
Tang Rao thought the old man just wanted to show appreciation and acknowledge him, letting this matter go. Later, he realized he was too naive, underestimating the old man's determination and effort.
"Rest assured, grandson-in-law. The Zhang family has two of the sa heirloom."
