"Dad, Xu Yong asked me this morning if our two families should propose a marriage alliance."
"As long as Ruinian marries into the Xu Family, they are willing to give us five acres of good land. Once Ruinian and Xinghua have children, they will give us a son with the Gu surname to care for, so our family line won't be considered ended."
Gu Youtian eyed the silhouette of Gu Ruinian outside, discussing with Mr. Gu.
He felt that Mr. Gu's concerns were mainly because once Gu Ruinian married into the Xu Family, the Gu Family would lose a descendant.
Doesn't addressing the lineage issue solve it?
The Xu Family is willing to give him five acres of good land.
Trading a lame youngest son for five acres of good land is quite worthwhile.
Mr. Gu took a drag from his pipe, showing hesitation on his face.
To be honest, he was tempted by the Xu Family's promise to provide a future son for the Gu Family under these conditions.
