Chapter 44

There is no blood relationship.

Empty name, but not justified.

Niu Fu, Li Jue, Guo Si, Fan Chou, and even Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu.

I am afraid they will all be full of hostility toward Gu Yi instantly!

Endless troubles will follow one after another.

Therefore, Gu Yi has made up his mind.

If what Old Dong is going to say next is that he wants to adopt him as a foster son.

Then he will definitely refuse immediately.

However, just when Gu Yi had already thought of his rhetoric.

Old Dong suddenly said:

"Gu Yi, my granddaughter Bai'er has admired you for a long time."

"How about... considering it."

"Be my granddaughter's husband, how about that?"

……

PS: Within the Xiliang Army, Dong Bai is actually the first in line for inheritance, but unfortunately, Dong Bai is a girl.

Handsome readers must have guessed that this chapter is not so much about introducing the inheritance rights within the Xiliang Army, but rather paving the way for Gu Yi to "inherit the family business" in a justified manner in the future.

The inheritance right of the eldest granddaughter's husband is the same as that of Niu Fu, Li Ru, and Dong Min, and is also in the second order.

And a foster son, unless recognized by a will, does not have inheritance rights.

"Ah?"

"Granddaughter's husband?".

Gu Yi didn't react for a while.

Even though he was stunned, it took a full half a minute before he sorted all this out.

He did hear that fellow Hua Xiong mention that Old Dong had a granddaughter named Dong Bai.

She has always been cherished like the apple of his eye.

But he didn't expect that Old Dong actually had the intention of marrying Dong Bai to him.

Regarding this, Gu Yi naturally would not be as resistant as he was to being adopted as a foster son.

However, as a young man of the twenty-first century with healthy thoughts.

After learning the news that Old Dong wanted to take him as his granddaughter's husband.

Gu Yi was very concerned about one question!

That is... is Dong Bai good-looking or not?

emmm, how should I put it, Old Dong was also very handsome when he was young.

But now, because his weight has been increasing since entering the capital, the former Xiliang athlete has long lost his former handsomeness.

Gu Yi was worried that Dong Bai would also follow Old Dong.

What if she really has Old Dong's body shape...

Gu Yi thought about it, should he find a way to politely decline?

Old Dong did not know the little thoughts in this kid Gu Yi's heart.

Seeing Gu Yi's slightly confused eyes.

A smile similar to an aunt's smile appeared on Old Dong's face.

Immediately, he pulled Gu Yi and began to tell him about all the good things about his precious granddaughter.

Listening, Gu Yi felt more and more fearful.

mad, why does it feel like "Wang Po selling melons, praising herself"?

Could it be... really the same body shape as Old Dong?

Thinking of this.

Gu Yi even had a picture in his mind.

A body of more than two hundred catties, bang, pressed him down.

This... who can stand it?

However, Old Dong did not notice the abnormality of this kid Gu Yi.

Instead, he thought that this kid must be too shy because he had no experience, so he was very silent in this regard.

Thinking of this, Old Dong couldn't help but feel a little sorry for Gu Yi.

Both parents are gone, and there is no one who can make decisions for his marriage.

Leading to the fact that he still doesn't understand anything about marriage.

"Sigh, in the future, I must let Bai'er be better to this kid Gu Yi, so that he can feel the warmth of home."

Dong Zhuo warned himself secretly in his heart.

Just like this, in Gu Yi's anxiety, Old Dong dragged him to the backyard of the Prime Minister's residence.

Old Dong's wife and son have both passed away.

Several concubines are not qualified to sit at the table for dinner on weekdays.

Therefore, usually, there are only Dong Zhuo and Dong Bai at the dinner table.

Or sometimes, Li Ru will bring Dong Yuan over to visit.

And today.

Gu Yi was pulled over by Old Dong.

Just as he sat at the dinner table.

He saw a familiar figure walking toward this side not far away.

Looking up, that figure was exactly the "Miss Li" he had seen at Li Ru's residence that day.

"It's you!"

Gu Yi said in surprise.

The moment he saw Dong Bai.

In his mind, all thoughts seemed to be clear.

At this time, the person who can appear in the backyard of the Prime Minister's residence can definitely not be "Miss Li", but Dong Zhuo's granddaughter Dong Bai!

In fact.

Ever since Gu Yi returned from the Li residence last time, he accidentally learned from Hua Xiong that Li Ru had no children, so he had always been suspicious of the identity of "Miss Li".

But because he had been in Luoyang for a short time, he was not particularly familiar with the family situation of the senior management of the Xiliang Army.

Therefore, he didn't think in the direction of "Miss Li is Dong Bai".

But now.

The reappearance of "Miss Li" instantly woke Gu Yi up.

And this scene, in Old Dong's eyes, presented another scene.

"Talented man and beautiful woman, a match made in heaven."

Old Dong sighed quite a bit.

"Gu... Young Master Gu, this is the sachet I made for you."

Looking at Gu Yi's handsome and handsome face, Dong Bai's face was already blushing.

She summoned the courage to give the finished sachet to Gu Yi.

Ever since she saw Gu Yi at the Li residence last time, Dong Bai began to follow her aunt Dong Yuan to learn needlework and embroidery.

Although she was clumsy at first.

But after a period of study.

She had already completely finished the sachet she intended to give to Gu Yi.

It's just that she was shy and didn't find a suitable opportunity to send it out.

Unexpectedly, her grandfather Dong Zhuo called Gu Yi to his home today and intended to let him have dinner here together.

"Hahahaha, you two young people chat."

"I suddenly remembered that there are still some government affairs to deal with, you eat first later, don't wait for me to come back."
