By reading my mind, I defeated the crazy regent

Tang Qishan refused with a gloomy face: "No, how can I let others look at my woman casually?"

The clan leader said, "Am I someone else? I am the clan leader of this family. Since you have taken that woman home, I think you approve of it."

"I think it's just a matter of seeing people. How shameful are you that you won't let people see you?"

"I'll meet her once. If this woman is decent, then I'll make an exception and let her son be included in the family tree. What's wrong with that?"

The clan leader painted a rosy picture for Tang Qishan.

Tang Qishan didn't quite believe it, mainly because he couldn't afford the gamble.

Is it more important for your son to be included in the family tree, or for you to be safe and sound?

Tang Qishan chose the latter without hesitation.

"No need for that. I won't let my woman show up in public. The mother of my child is not a woman like Xiao Yunqing, who deals with men all day long."

The older generation of the Tang family was unwilling.

"What's wrong with Xiao Yunqing interacting with men? She's a heroine, unmatched by many men. We're so lucky to be able to interact with her."

"Don't be so ungrateful that you have all the blessings you have and blame Xiao Yunqing for being too outstanding."

The clan leader also said: "A stinky daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law. You have been hiding it for so many years. Aren't you afraid that they will have opinions?"

"Speaking of which, it suddenly occurred to me that your father has been gone for nineteen years, right?"

The clan leader changed the topic so suddenly that Tang Qishan was stunned.

His father's affairs were also a taboo in Tang Qishan's heart. He absolutely dared not mention it lightly, and he didn't want others to talk about it.

In order to change the subject, Tang Qishan unexpectedly said: "What the clan leader said is correct, but my mother has been a little unwell recently."

Tang Qishan had been hiding the old lady's affairs. Although it was only a few days, there was already no hope that the old lady would get better.

Sooner or later, others will know about it, so why not tell it now?

The clan leader frowned. "Why is it so difficult? When did this happen? Why didn't we get any news before?"

Tang Qishan sighed sadly, "Hey, it's been a few days. I thought it wasn't a big deal. It's common for the elderly to feel unwell, so I thought I'd get treatment first."

"But I didn't expect the doctor's medical skills were not good enough. A few days later, the old lady became ill. She had a stroke. Now her mouth is crooked, her eyes are slanted, and her legs and feet are not straight. She can't speak or get out of bed."

"Is it so serious? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

The patriarch looked at Tang Qishan suspiciously and questioned him.

The old lady is the only elder in the Tang family's main branch, so she still has some status.

If we had known that the old lady was like this, the family would definitely go to visit her.

Tang Qishan smiled bitterly, "My mother told me not to tell you, didn't she? I said something this serious must be told to everyone in the clan, or at least to you, the clan leader."

"But you know my mother. She's been competitive all her life. Now that she's old and like this, she feels embarrassed to have her children by her bedside to show their filial piety. She doesn't want anyone to know."

"I brought Yingying's mother back because I was too busy. Tang Qiansui is unreliable and doesn't live at home at all. How can we live without someone to take care of us?"

"I brought her back to take care of my mother and let her, as a daughter-in-law, fulfill her filial duty."

Tang Qishan only said this now, and even though it sounded reasonable, it still made people feel that he was hypocritical.

Why didn't you say it earlier? Now that you've spoken up, who would believe you?

The clan leader snorted coldly: "Then we have to go to your house to check on you. Your mother is sick, and it's not right for the family members to go and see her."

The clan leader no longer cared about Tang Qishan and walked out with his men.

As they walked, the clan leader also told the people around him: "Qian Sui must not know that her grandmother is seriously ill. You should quickly send someone to the Regent's Palace to inform Qian Sui."

The patriarch didn't believe Tang Qishan's words at all.

Tang Qiansui has been in the Regent's Mansion. Tang Qishan didn't tell his family members about the old lady, so how could he tell Tang Qiansui?

How can a father always throw dirty water on his daughter?

Tang Qishan's face was gloomy.

The clan leader actually bypassed him and sent someone else to deliver the letter to Tang Qiansui. What did this mean? Did he look down on him?

Tang Qishan knew that he couldn't stop him this time, so he followed him even though he was angry.

He thought that it was a good thing that the old lady was now unable to speak and could not say anything, and that only the old lady knew Bai Cha's identity.

As long as the old lady shuts up, then no one else has seen Bai Cha for twenty years, so who can recognize her?

What's more, these people may not have seen white tea.

Tang Qishan felt a little relieved, and when he passed by Tang Yingying, he snorted coldly.

"I thought you were always sensible, but I didn't expect you to be so stupid at the critical moment."

"If things don't go well today, there's no chance that you and your two children will ever come back. Tell me, why are you so impatient? I really misjudged you."

Tang Yingying also felt wronged and whispered in defense: "Dad, why do you blame me? Have you ever thought about how I would feel when my daughter comes home and there's no one left at home except me?"

"I was scared. I thought my father didn't want me anymore and had abandoned me. I was just too anxious."

Tang Qishan felt bad when he saw Tang Yingying with a bruised face and crying voice.

After all, he still felt sorry for his daughter, so he softened his tone.

"How could Daddy not want you? Aren't we all rushing together? Well, now that we've talked about it, we can only move on."

"Let's go home with Dad."

"Dad!" Tang Yingying's eyes lit up.

Can she really go home now? From now on, will she, Tang Yingying, be a rich lady?

She no longer has to look at people's faces, suffer criticism, or be laughed at as a fatherless illegitimate child?

Also, she could finally step on Tang Qiansui's head openly and let Tang Qiansui know that she was not Tang Qiansui's follower or slave.

Tang Qishan looked at his daughter and his tone finally softened.

"I've wronged you and your two children over the years. Now that you've regained your status, you must make your father proud."

Tang Yingying's eyes were filled with tears: "Well, don't worry, Dad. I will never be impulsive again. I will definitely make you proud of me."

Tang Qishan nodded, turned and walked out.

Tang Yingying patted her mother-in-law excitedly: "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and follow my father. I want to go home."

The two old women finally woke up from their dream and were overjoyed.

"Okay, Miss, you're done, let's go now."

They were both beaming.

This trip was finally the right one. They had been taking care of the mother and her two children for many years. Now that they were returning to the wealthy family, how could they not take them with them?

As the saying goes, when one person succeeds, everyone around him will benefit.

Now they have something new to talk about when they go out, and they can brag even more.

Tang Qiansui was stunned for a moment when she received the news.
