Chapter 739 Uncle and Nephew Are Both Bachelors
It was getting late.
Old Mrs. Min should have said goodbye and gone back, but she still sat as steady as a mountain.
Tong Huaqiong couldn't chase anyone away either.
What's more, Mrs. Min had a good personality and spoke in a witty and interesting way. She revealed many big news in Shengjing, and everyone forgot the time while listening to her.
"Grandma, I'm here to take you back." Su Chengmin came back from work and went straight to Tong Huaqiong to pick up Grandma Min.
Old Mrs. Min showed disappointment on her face.
She deliberately delayed until night, hoping that her son would come to Gu's house to pick her up.
The filial son did not come, but the grandson did.
"Where is your uncle?" asked Mrs. Min.
Su Chengmin smiled and said, "My uncle went to Jiangbei Camp again this afternoon and went straight home. He asked me to pick you up."
Old Mrs. Min curled her lips.
The mother and son are connected by heart. She knew that her son was thinking about Tong Da Jiao, and now he is in Shengjing, but he has not come to see her.
I don't know why my son is so pretentious.
But she has been out for a day, so it is time for her to go back.
Old Mrs. Min stood up and said to Tong Huaqiong, "In a few days, please come to my house as a guest. You and Hanniu haven't seen each other for more than 20 years, so you should meet them."
Tong Huaqiong broke into a sweat and agreed.
Su Chengmin supported Old Lady Min and walked outside, while Tong Huaqiong and others accompanied them to the gate.
The Min family's carriage was parked not far away.
Old Madam Min got on the carriage, waved to Tong Huaqiong and shouted, "Go back."
Tong Huaqiong watched the carriage disappear before going home.
"You are a general who has commanded thousands of troops. Why don't you dare to see Tong Da Jiao and can only hide in the carriage to peek. Don't say you are my son when you go out. It's embarrassing enough." Old Mrs. Min said to the mighty general.
The mighty general sat in the carriage, his heart pounding.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally came to pick up Old Mrs. Min. However, he was too embarrassed to get off the carriage to go to Gu's house, so he only sent his nephew.
Normally he was unwilling to ride in a carriage and would always ride a horse. However, riding a horse would easily expose him, so he took a carriage.
He parked the carriage near Tong Huaqiong's house like a thief, and when he saw Tong Huaqiong coming out, he almost couldn't breathe.
This was the second time he had seen Tong Huaqiong since they parted when they were young.
The first time was yesterday when the Crown Prince was welcomed into the palace. He took a glimpse from a distance and didn’t see it very clearly.
It's too late today and I still can't see it clearly.
Through the dim light, the girl in his memory was standing at the door, her figure still the same as before.
"Mom, it's not that I don't dare to see her. She has a son and a daughter but no man. What will outsiders say if I go to see her? She just came to Shengjing, and it will have an impact on her if any bad news comes out." said the mighty general.
Old Mrs. Min rolled her eyes at her son. What excuse was he making?
Today I heard that Tong Da Jiao and Prince Yu’s Mansion had a conflict, and she ran away faster than anyone else.
"Tong Da Jiao already has a grandson, so what bad news can be spread about you? I think you are still thinking about her and you have something to hide, so you think it's bad to spread it. If you are honest, who would spread rumors about you two?"
Old Mrs. Min pointed at her son and scolded him, thinking that it would be okay to spread it.
Anyway, her son has been single all his life, so it would be nice if he could rekindle his relationship with Tong Da Jiao.
If Tong Da Jiao can be someone’s stepmother, why can’t her son be the stepfather of Tong Da Jiao’s child?
What's more, Tong Dajiao's children are all very promising and don't need Min Hanniu to spend a lot of effort to raise them.
She had thought it all out. After Su Chengmin and Gu Taohua got married, one of their children would be adopted by the Min family to carry on the family line.
It is better for the two families to become one and live a good life.
"You've never married in your life just for Tong Da Jiao. You're afraid of delaying others because of the ruthless swords on the battlefield. You can fool the emperor with these words, but you can't fool me, your mother."
Su Chengmin heard his grandmother scolding his uncle, and then said, "Uncle, since you have been thinking about Aunt Tong all the time, why not find a time to explain it to Aunt Tong so that you don't have to think about it all the time. Aunt Tong is not that kind of hypocritical person. If she is interested in you, you can just come and live with her. If not, you can just give up."
Su Chengmin sincerely considers his uncle's lifelong happiness.
In Su Chengmin's heart, his uncle is more upright than his father Su Shihang.
Su Shihang clearly had his original wife in his heart, but he married his mother for the sake of his future, causing the two women to fight with each other in the backyard.
One was forced to death, and another was forced to turn evil.
He hated his stepmother for constantly provoking his mother and for treating him harshly after his mother died. He hated his father even more for being the culprit behind all the trouble.
Min Hanniu flicked Su Chengmin's forehead and said, "Asshole, we are so old now, talking about marriage will only make people laugh."
Having said that, he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
The girl from the Tong family lives far away from Qinghe Bay and has no acquaintances around her. Maybe she is really willing to rekindle their old relationship with him.
Su Chengmin said, "Old? You are a mighty general that the enemy is terrified of. If you are willing to marry, you can see how many people in Shengjing are willing to send their daughters to marry you. You are still strong and healthy."
"But uncle, if you want to be with Aunt Tong, you can't be so shy. You can't let Aunt Tong pursue you, right?"
Looking at his disrespectful nephew, the mighty general lost his temper instantly.
My nephew’s suggestion is not impossible.
But he still has to ask Tong Da Jiao's opinion, right?
Min Hanniu asked, "When you went to pick up your grandma just now, did you mention me in front of your Aunt Tong?"
Su Chengmin said honestly, "No, didn't you tell me not to mention it?"
Min Hanniu glared at Su Chengmin and said, "If I'm not allowed to mention it, then you won't mention it?"
Old Lady Min said, "Are you wondering if Tong Da Jiao mentioned you? I'll tell you the truth, no, she didn't mention you at all today."
Min Hanniu felt lost instantly.
When he was in the carriage, he was looking forward to Tong Huaqiong sending his mother to the carriage. He was also thinking about how to greet and chat with Tong Huaqiong. He even thought of the lines for their meeting. Tong Huaqiong stopped at the door.
Bai was excited for a long time.
Seeing her son's lost look, Mrs. Min said, "Since your daughter-in-law and daughter are here, it's normal for Tong Da Jiao not to mention you. Don't be so depressed. Anyway, she is in Shengjing now and can meet her anytime she wants. Once the palace banquet to welcome the crown prince is over, I will hold a banquet at home and invite Tong Da Jiao to bring Taohua and the others to eat and drink at home, so as to create a chance for you two to meet."
Min Hanniu felt as if his mother had set him up to have a secret meeting with Tong Dajiao, and he smiled awkwardly.
After talking about his uncle, Su Chengmin felt that it was his turn and asked, "Grandma, have you mentioned Taohua and me to Aunt Tong?"
Old Madam Min shook her head and said, "It's a bit too hasty for your Aunt Tong to bring up Taohua's marriage right after she arrived in Shengjing. Don't worry, I will definitely arrange it for you in a few days."
Old Mrs. Min looked at the two bachelors, one old and one young, in front of her and sighed.
One or two of them just make him worry.
However, compared to her son, Su Chengmin's marriage concerned her more.
After all, during this period of time, her "good" son-in-law Su Shihang suddenly remembered that he still had a son who was not married, and wanted to arrange a marriage for Su Chengmin. Even after she scolded him, he still did not give up.
Su Shihang was quite proud in front of the old emperor, and she was really afraid that Su Shihang would ask the emperor to grant Su Chengmin a marriage for the sake of the Su family.
The best way to break Su Shihang's plan to marry Su Chengmin is to settle Su Chengmin's marriage as soon as possible.
