Chu Huaishan's face froze, "Huanyan, what do you mean by this!"

"It's just family chatting. What's wrong with my second uncle? Could it be that my niece is clumsy and tongue-tied and said the wrong things to make you unhappy?"

Chu Huanyan had an innocent look on her face, which made Chu Huaishan choke violently.

Although he had known for a long time that his niece was not a soft persimmon, before at least she had taken into account the obvious etiquette and affection, but now looking at her attitude, she did not take him as an elder seriously at all.

Taking a breath secretly, Chu Huaishan tried his best to speak in a calm tone: "Huanyan, my second uncle doesn't mean any harm. I just think that there are many things in the Hou Mansion now, and we relatives should naturally come out to help share the burden, and we can't just bear the burden on you." On the little girl’s head.”

After saying that, he did not forget to wink at Chu Zimao who was standing beside him, "Lao San, do you think so?"

Compared with Chu Huaishan's smooth face, Chu Zimao's serious expression looked more stable than that of an elder.

"Second brother is right. In fact, we don't worry about anything else. After all, you seem to be a measured person, but..."

Chu Zimao paused, frowned and continued to speak.

"You really need to worry about your marriage. Since your parents are gone, we uncles will inevitably have to worry more about them. You have already reached the age where you should get married, and you can't stay here like this. In the prince's mansion."

"That's right. A girl who is almost twenty years old, even if she is the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, will be laughed at if word gets out that she doesn't decide on a marriage." Chu Huaishan supported.

"The Lin Zeyuan before was not a good match as soon as the marriage was called off, and the family was in decline. But now that he has broken off the engagement, he should seize the time to make a new engagement." Chu Zimao frowned even more tightly.

"That's right, if you delay any longer, I'm afraid it will cost you your life." Chu Huaishan continued.

Looking at the two singing together, Chu Huanyan picked up the tea cup and used the time to drink tea to block the mocking smile on her lips.

By the time he put down the teacup, his expression had returned to normal, "Second and third uncles came to visit today. Do you just want to persuade me to get married as soon as possible, or do you mean that you have already taken the trouble to find a marriage for me?"

A calculating look quickly flashed across Chu Huaishan's face, and he glanced at Chu Zimao. Seeing that the latter didn't speak, he coughed slightly and drew Chu Huanyan's attention.

"This matter should actually be your parents' concern, but now...as my second uncle, I have chosen some for you. They are all good sons and daughters with innocent family backgrounds and good looks. If you are willing to look at each other, , I think it won’t be long before the marriage is decided.”

Chu Huanyan asked curiously, "I wonder which sons my uncle has chosen?"

Chu Huaishan is so enthusiastic, so he should be able to get some benefits from this marriage.

"Don't worry, we have known each other for many years and know everything about him. Although he is a businessman, he has a rich family. You will not endure hardship when you marry him." Chu Huaishan said immediately.

As he spoke, he observed Chu Huanyan's expression. Seeing the latter's lack of interest, he added.

"By the way, there is a family named Han among them. They are from a medical family and are friends with your parents."

"Really?" Chu Huanyan tugged at her lips, "I've never heard of it."

Her second uncle failed to obtain any honors when he was young, and lost a lot of family property. Although he is now in business, it is said that it has been tepid, and most of the time he still relies on his ancestors' savings.

Now that he is introducing himself so enthusiastically, is he trying to use himself as a favor to pave the way for his business?

"You were still young at that time, so naturally you don't remember anything. The Han family has a century-old medical family, and the old man in the family once served as an imperial physician and served the late emperor." Chu Huaishan's tone was full of praise.

Chu Huanyan was stunned for a moment, and looked at Chu Huaishan with a more serious look, "Have you ever been an imperial physician?"

"That's right, he worked as an imperial doctor for more than ten years, but later he made some mistakes and was dismissed from the position. Not for that reason. I'm afraid that his family will be admitted to the imperial hospital for generations."

Seeing that Chu Huanyan seemed to be interested, Chu Huaishan continued.

"Besides, the friendship between their family and your parents is not groundless. Speaking of which, not long before your parents' accident, they visited the Han family. By the way, I was the one who helped introduce them that time."

"Since I still need to be introduced by my second uncle, I guess I didn't have much friendship with my parents before coming to the Han family." Chu Huanyan pointed it out rudely.

Chu Huaishan's face stiffened, and he said hurriedly: "Although we have known each other for a short time, we felt like old friends at first sight. After we came back, your parents even praised the Han family to me. If you hadn't already been engaged at that time, I'm afraid... I promised you to the Han family..."

Chu Huaishan introduced earnestly, Chu Huanyan lowered her eyes slightly, and her thoughts were spinning rapidly.

When dad was alive, he didn't have many friends, and he didn't like to socialize. Although he had some close colleagues, other than that, he didn't seem to have many friends.

It's not like dad's style to specifically visit the Han family, unless... he went to the Han family for other reasons.

"Moreover, Young Master of the Han family has a handsome appearance and good character. His medical skills are inherited from the old master of the Han family. He is highly praised for treating illnesses and saving people. If you can compete with him..."

"Okay, I promise to meet you." Chu Huanyan came back to her senses and interrupted Chu Huaishan.

The latter was delighted, "Seriously?"

"Seriously." Chu Huanyan nodded with a smile, "Since the second uncle admires the Han family and the Han family's young master so much, it doesn't hurt to meet my niece. I can't let the second uncle's efforts go to waste."

"Okay, great!" Chu Huaishan nodded repeatedly, "Huanyan, my second uncle knows that you are a smart boy who knows what is good and what is good, knows how to measure, and will not let us down."

Chu Huanyan smiled, but did not respond to the compliment. Instead, she asked, "Second and third uncles came here today just for this reason?"

"As long as you decide to get married, I have nothing else to do." It was Chu Zimao who spoke. After speaking, he picked up the teacup on the table next to him and drank tea by himself.

Chu Huaishan looked at Chu Zimao, then at Chu Huanyan, and smiled again.

"Huanyan, there is one more thing about Xu'er."

"What's wrong with Brother Xu?" Chu Huanyan looked at Chu Xixu.

"Your brother is already eighteen years old. Originally, the family wanted him to study hard, but his mind was not on books at all. Instead, he was only thinking about doing business. It's just that the few shops under the second uncle's hands are really nothing. It’s easy to exercise, so…”

Chu Huaishan forced out an increasingly obvious smile and said to Chu Huanyan.

"Second uncle thought, since you are going to be busy seeing each other anyway, why not let him run the shop for you, just to share some of the burden, so that you can concentrate on seeing each other and find the right husband as soon as possible."
