“Your brother’s temper…” Mr. Tang sighed helplessly, “He also has a little Demon King at home, too troublesome. You know our family’s situation somewhat, she doesn’t get along with her stepmother and probably doesn’t want to be one herself.”

Thinking of his nephew, the man’s lips curled slightly. He recalled the little guy’s love for sweets, and the pine-nut yellow cake here was indeed good. Perhaps he should bring some back when returning to the capital.

“Besides, I think you two are more suitable. My granddaughter has the best temperament in Pingjiang.” Speaking of his granddaughter, Mr. Tang’s eyes showed a hint of a smile.

“But matters of the heart can’t be forced, and I won’t put any pressure on you. Alright, let’s not discuss this. We’ve listened to the storytelling, drank tea, eaten cake, and seen the person. Walk with me, it just rained, the air outside is good.”

“Okay.”

The old man pursed his lips, looking at him with a complicated expression.

At the Tang Family at this moment

Tang Wan finished listening to Zhang Liyun’s words and smiled with her lips pursed, “Yes, it’s fortunate father isn’t around. Otherwise, with his temper, he would definitely quarrel with grandpa.”

“The old man values promises and trust, your father is just worried about you, actually no one is wrong.” Zhang Liyun secretly disliked Tang Wan.

When she married in, Tang Wan was not young and already sensible, making it hard to win her over. However, her personality wasn’t willful, and over the years, though there had been friction, they coexisted peacefully.

Ultimately, they were at odds in secret, but as the old man’s health declined, friction increased.

“Wanwan, who do you prefer among the two Jiang Family members?” Zhang Liyun probed.

“I haven’t met either, so I can’t say I prefer anyone.”

“Then do you want to go upstairs later? If the Jiang Family comes and your father and grandfather aren’t around, I’m afraid you won’t be able to handle it if they insist on discussing the marriage.”

She smiled kindly, as if everything was for Tang Wan’s benefit.

Tang Wan, however, put down the teacup more forcefully, and smirked, “Aunt Li, you really don’t have to beat around the bush with me. I know what you’re up to, it’s already spread outside…”

“They say you want Tang Mo to replace me in marrying into the Jiang Family!”
