Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Chapter 399: Clever Grandma

Taozi is twenty-eight this year, and it’s impossible that her family has never worried about her lifelong happiness.

A slew of aunts and great-aunts have introduced her to nurous blind date prospects, but Taozi either loses contact after just one eting or doesn’t even et them at all; she’s proven to be quite the tough nut to crack.

This is also why soone previously ntioned that her father managed to keep the few strands of hair he had left on his head, indicating that the rest was likely lost to worry long before.

Eventually, everyone realized how hard she was to deal with, and they gave up trying to set her up with anyone.

But no matter who introduced suitors to Taozi, there had to be a matter of matching social status, either coming from a wealthy family or having a successful career, the social elite.

Taozi would never just be introduced to any random man; that wouldn’t be a kindness but a harm, a slap in the face to the Jiang Family’s reputation.

However, Shen Siyuan has an ordinary job, and an ordinary family background. If Taozi had t him herself and taken an instant liking, then that would be fine, it can’t be helped if a young girl fancies soone.

But if Jiang Wenxin was the one who introduced them, then sothing would be off unless Shen Siyuan had so special qualities.

Grandma Taozi may be old, but she’s not at all muddled.

Furthermore, she noticed that Jiang Wenxin, since coming into the room and greeting everyone, had been sitting quietly aside, watching them converse without uttering a word.

This was actually quite unusual. If little Shen had been introduced by her, then when the topic was brought up just now, Jiang Wenxin should have helped to say sothing.

But she didn’t utter a word, just smiling and listening as little Shen joked with her, without interrupting. This attitude was very abnormal.

Since little Shen’s family background was ordinary, the only possibility was that he was soone capable, yet modest and not easily noticeable to ordinary people.

Hearing Grandma Taozi ask like this, the eldest aunt sitting beside also beca curious, turning her gaze towards Jiang Wenxin.

Hearing this, Jiang Wenxin revealed a smile and said, "Grandma’s guess is not wrong, he is a very capable person."

"Oh, what abilities does he have, and to what extent is he capable?" The eldest aunt couldn’t help but ask curiously.

"Eldest aunt, I can’t divulge that," Jiang Wenxin said.

"What’s there to hide from your aunt?" The eldest aunt said with so displeasure.

"Eldest aunt, without his consent, I can’t tell you. Just know that he is very impressive," Jiang Wenxin explained.

The eldest aunt wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Grandma.

"Alright, if she doesn’t want to say it, don’t keep asking. Wenxin has her own reasons for not saying, don’t make it difficult for her."

Hearing Grandma say this, the eldest aunt didn’t feel it was appropriate to continue asking.

"However, you have to see clearly, don’t be fooled. Nowadays there are many scamrs; it’s not a big deal if they just cheat so money, but don’t hurt Taozi’s heart," Grandma cautioned.

"Grandma, don’t worry. Guangsha and I still have so judgnt; besides, they might not even fancy Taozi."

"What do you an? What does that an? Are you saying they look down on our Taozi?" The eldest aunt imdiately beca unhappy upon hearing this, raising her voice quite a bit.

Not only is Taozi beautiful, but she is also simple-hearted. Among the three generations of the Jiang Family, she is especially cherished.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have allowed her to continue her idle, carefree life at the age of twenty-eight.

"Eldest aunt, that’s not what I ant. Anyway, he is a very capable and unique young man. Just let things take their course with him and Taozi," Jiang Wenxin explained.

"Guangsha knows about this too?" Grandma asked, sowhat surprised.

"Yes, of course."

"That’s good," Grandma sighed in relief.

Although Grandma was at odds with Tao Guangsha, she still trusted his capabilities; otherwise, she wouldn’t have married off Jiang Wenxin to him.

"Alright, all of you go on with your business, don’t mind ."

Seeing that everything had been said, Grandma gestured with her hands, shooing them away.

The eldest aunt and Jiang Wenxin exchanged a glance, stood up, and said, "Then you rest well, when the wedding banquet officially starts, I’ll co to call you."

"Go, go..."

Grandma leaned back in the chair and closed her eyes.

After they left for a while, Grandma, who had been closing her eyes, suddenly opened her eyes, stood up, and walked back and forth in the room a couple of tis, shook her arms, then looked down at the place on her hand where Shen Siyuan had patted earlier.

"Is this the sort of ability he has?"

-----------------

Weddings are actually quite boring; no matter how lavish they are, there’s little variation in the proceedings.

However, the only thing that made Shen Siyuan feel uneasy was Taozi’s parents, who kept turning their heads to size him up.

Taozi’s dad had thinning hair and a slightly plump figure, not particularly handso, and the reason Taozi was so good-looking was mainly that she resembled her mom more, sharing similar facial features, noses, and mouths with her.

The only traits she inherited from her dad were her eyes and ears, which so happened to be the best features of her dad’s appearance.

Therefore, Taozi’s attractiveness surpassed both her parents as she had selectively inherited their best traits.

Taozi’s male cousin was stout and stocky, robust and sturdy, yet his wife was delicate and graceful, rather demure. Standing together, they gave off a sweet impression of a tender bird leaning on a strong tree.

Before the wedding banquet ended, Taozi quietly pulled Shen Siyuan away, probably worried about being caught by their parents and barraged with a bunch of questions.

"Is it okay to just leave like this?"

"It’s fine, there are plenty of people today, I don’t want to add to the chaos."

Right then, Shen Siyuan’s phone rang; it was Tao Guangsha.

It turned out they had been keeping an eye on Shen Siyuan, and seeing him leave, they hurriedly called to ask where he was staying.

Of course, they wanted to see Dou Dou, not Shen Siyuan.

Shen Siyuan inford them of the hotel he was staying in and then hung up the phone.

He then waved his fingers forming a magic gesture, silently reciting an incantation, summoning Dou Dou back.

Turning his head, Taozi, sitting at the driver’s seat, was curiously watching him.

"Focus on driving," Shen Siyuan reminded.

"Oh."

Taozi hurriedly pretended to drive seriously, but soon, she couldn’t resist her curiosity and asked, "I’m just curious, what were you doing just now?"

"I was calling Dou Dou back."

"Has she returned?"

"Not so fast."

"Is she flying back?"

"What else?"

"You’re really amazing," Taozi blurted out.

"Uh..." Shen Siyuan didn’t know how to respond.

"If I die one day, can I be like Dou Dou?" Taozi said with a hopeful face.

Shen Siyuan was taken aback; this was the first ti soone had said sothing like this to him.

He found it sowhat amusing, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"I’m serious."

While they were talking, Dou Dou was riding the Yin Wind, hurrying back.

Along the way, she was muttering to herself.

"Potato really is sothing, why does he only call for and not Duoduo or Sister Xiao Yue..."

"Wow, so many flowers, what are they doing? Oh, they’re in love, getting married, hehehe..." seeing a proposal, she squeezed her way in to join the excitent.

"Wow, what a cute doggy, woof woof, you can’t see , I’m not afraid of you..."

Upon encountering an adorable dog, she went to tease it; the dog couldn’t see her, but seed to sense her presence, barking at her and sending her running for the hills.

"A convertible car, I want a ride in the breeze too..."

Seeing a sports car, she descended to sit in it, only to be blown off by the wind.

"Little Seagull, don’t run, let ride you for a bit..."

...

So Dou Dou, who should have returned to Shen Siyuan’s side quickly, took almost two hours to do so.

By then, Shen Siyuan had already returned to the hotel.
