Jiang Ran walked all the way to Tang's house, no matter how much he thought about it, he felt that something was wrong.
Tang Yuan was a well-known figure in Cangzhou Prefecture. His family was extremely wealthy, but he had no sons.
How many people in the entire Cangzhou Prefecture want to be his son-in-law?
Not to mention, just today, Jiang Ran felt that what Fan Jiwu did was probably for this reason.
After all, it was such a coincidence...
It was difficult for Jiang Ran not to suspect that Fan Jiwu did not do it intentionally.
For such a Tang family, what reason would there be for marrying their daughter to a stranger?
Jiang Ran thought about it and finally felt that it was most likely this old drunkard who had done something in this.
They deceived all members of Yuan Tang's family...
Therefore, Jiang Ran felt that instead of going around and around, it would be better to go straight to the topic.
But as soon as these words came out, there was no look of surprise on the faces of Tang Yuanwai and others.
Mrs. Tang even showed pity on her face:
"Good boy, you have suffered."
Jiang Ran's eyes widened. Could it be that the old drunkard even said that he would never die?
"Xian son-in-law, please take a look at this first."
Officer Tang saw the confusion in Jiang Ran's eyes, so he took out a letter from his waist:
"This letter was written to you by your master. After his letter was sent, we calculated the time and knew that it was almost time for you to come.
"I have been waiting for you in front of the door these past few days, and I dare not leave you with this letter.
"Now I can finally leave it to you. The whole story is explained in it. You will know it after reading it.
"All in all, this matter is actually because we can't help you..."
After finishing speaking, Tang Yuwai sighed, turned and left.
Mrs. Tang and others also had different expressions. After their eyes lingered on Jiang Ran for a while, they dispersed.
Jiang Ran was a little embarrassed by what they saw. Just as he was about to open the letter, he smelled a sweet fragrance. When he turned around, he saw Tang Huayi licking his face and squeezing to his side. He stood on his feet and looked at the letter in Jiang Ran's hand:
"Brother-in-law, I'll watch it with you!"
"..."
Jiang Ran didn't know how to get along with this girl for a while.
In the end, Mrs. Tang pulled her away and said to Jiang Ran:
"Let's take a look."
Jiang Ran gave a slight salute, then came to the edge and opened the letter.
This letter is very thick, and it seems that the old drunkard writes a lot.
Just the first sentence at the beginning caught Jiang Ran a little off guard...
"You brat, try calling me an old bastard again!"
He turned around and looked around to make sure that the old drunkard wasn't peeping at him, and then looked down.
It's just an old drunkard's letter, which is smelly and long.
First he taught Jiang Ran to respect the old and love the young, and then he said it was not easy to raise him at such a young age, and he went on and on.
Jiang Ran simply skipped all the previous pages, searched ten lines at a glance, and finally found what he wanted.
Just after looking at it, Jiang Ran's brows gradually knotted into a knot.
According to what the old drunkard said in his letter, Tang Shiqing, the eldest daughter of a member of the Tang Dynasty, was born with a strange disease that was difficult to cure and required day and night medication to survive.
Moreover, the required medicinal materials are extremely expensive.
Of course, for the Tang family, this is not a problem.
But there is one thing... Tang Yuanwai has no children.
These two daughters will eventually get married.
Fortunately, the second daughter is born to be adventurous. Even if she runs away from home one day, it is still possible for her to go out and fight for justice.
But who should the eldest daughter be betrothed to?
How could any man endure her illness?
Even if you are willing to accept it, it is probably because of the Tang family's tens of thousands of wealth.
Now that the money is in hand, people may not care about Tang Shiqing's life.
Therefore, Tang Yuanwai had been worried about this for a long time.
In this case, even if he recruits a son-in-law and waits for a hundred years for the Tang Dynasty official to leave, it is difficult to say whether he will always be the support of Tang Shiqing.
Parents love their children and have long-term plans.
Under such circumstances, Tang Yuanwai thought hard and thought that the best way was to have a short-lived ghost who could marry Tang Shiqing.
It would be best for two people to have a child.
In this way, Tang Shiqing became a couple, and people outside could only give up their thoughts.
Once this short-lived ghost dies, you don't have to worry about this person bullying your daughter again a hundred years later.
Tang Yuanwai is now in his fifties, which can be considered as being in the prime of life. He will not worry about having grandchildren. When the child is raised, he will support his mother and inherit half of the Tang family's money, and everything will fall into place.
But the question is...where can I find such a short-lived ghost?
Ordinary people, including officials from the Tang Dynasty, would not look down on him. How many of the people he would like would die young?
You can't just ask every person you meet, are you interested in getting married? The kind who will die after giving birth to a child?
This has nothing to do with it!
Seeing that Tang Shiqing was getting older and older, and had long passed the age of hair extensions, more and more people were asking for her hand in marriage.
Tang Yuanwai gradually began to be unable to cope, and at this moment the old drunkard appeared.
In this letter, the old drunkard didn't write clearly how he knew about this matter.
He just said that he came directly to visit the Tang family.
Tang Yuanwai is indeed a kind person, and the old drunkard's slovenly appearance shows that he is not a serious person. He has never judged people by their appearance and treated them poorly.
As a result, the old drunkard told people that he had an apprentice who was born with a near chance of death and would not live past the age of twenty. He was a kind and righteous man, extremely talented and knowledgeable.
The most important thing is that Pan An is a rare handsome man in this world.
When Tang Yuanwai heard this, his heart skipped a beat.
After all, short-lived ghosts are hard to find, and it is even harder to find good-looking, talented, and unlucky ghosts.
Moreover, death and death will not be passed on hereditary. If his daughter can give birth to an heir with him, then this child will definitely be one of the best among men.
In the end, I don’t know how the old drunkard made Tang Yuanwai believe his words, so the two of them settled the matter privately.
It is no small matter to be able to survive nine deaths. Jiang Ran has reached 20 this year.
Who knows how many days there are left to live?
I'm afraid it will be too late to pick Jiang Ran up, and to be honest, Jiang Ran may not be willing to come.
Finally, the old drunkard wrote a life-saving letter with a stroke of his pen.
Only then did everything happen before.
When Jiang Ran saw this, he felt uncomfortable all over.
This feeling of having your life controlled by others is very unpleasant.
However, looking further down, I found that the old drunkard’s words already contained some sincerity:
"Of course, you are not young, and your end is approaching.
"Master is incompetent. You have suffered too much with me in this life, and there is nothing I can do for you in the end.
"I can only find you a beautiful wife and let you live a wealthy life for a few days.
"If you have the strength, if you work hard these days, it won't be difficult to leave an heir.
"In this way, this life in this world will not be wasted."
Jiang Ran felt a little touched when he saw this.
After all, this old drunkard only thinks of himself.
It's just that he doesn't know that he has now activated the system, and the entire world is his life-extending pill.
After all, this marriage cannot be counted.
Thinking of this, he gently pinched his eyebrows and began to think about how to tell Mr. Tang about this matter.
But he didn't know that just when he was thinking hard.
There was a gap in a window in an attic in the Tang family compound.
A pair of eyes followed the gap and looked at him quietly.
A low voice slowly sounded:
"Do you think he will believe it?"
