Xunmi's forehead twitched and her expression became even more distorted.
What was with this feeling that she had finally found someone to entrust her to? Was she really that pitiful?
Two days ago, she was snatched away in public. It was obvious that she was very popular, alright? He said it as if she really couldn't get married. Her heart was tired.
"Son-in-law, where are you from? What kind of people do you have in your family?"
"Wait, don't tell me you have a wife or a concubine. Let me tell you, my daughter, even if she can't get married, she will never become someone's second wife, concubine, or co-wife."
After saying a few words, he remembered that he hadn't revealed his son-in-law's family background.
How could this do? He had to investigate properly. He couldn't let his daughter be cheated.
Moreover, it wasn't as if he couldn't raise his daughter. Even if she stayed at home for the rest of her life, he wouldn't say anything.
Xunmi sighed. The original owner's father was really good to her.
Yan Mou was stunned for a moment. Then, like pouring beans, she spat out everything.
"Father, I'm from the capital, but I'm at the border all year round. There's no one else in the family except me."
His father died in battle when he was very young. His mother also passed away after raising him. Then, he went to the military camp.
After a few years of hard work, he took over his father's job.
After Qiu Zhihao received an affirmative answer, he smiled widely. It was obvious how happy he was.
"That's good, that's good. Son-in-law, I think it's better to do it today. You two should get married today."
It was as if his daughter really couldn't get married. Once she found a partner, he would immediately push him over.
Xunmi was speechless. "Father, is this the main point?"
Didn't he look at the situation now? The matter of the county magistrate hadn't been settled yet. Why would they get married? Was he crazy?
Qiu Zhihao pouted. His daughter wasn't cute at all. He despised her.
His gaze and expression were too obvious. It made Xunmi want to hit him.
"Okay, okay. I'll listen to you. If this man runs away, don't hug me and cry."
"In any case, I will never help you snatch a man back from the outside. Your father is a decent man."
Xunmi was speechless. A decent person who frequented brothels!!!
She really couldn't get better. She had to calm down. She had to hold it in. She couldn't hit people. Really, it wasn't good to hit people, especially when this person was her father.
Taking a deep breath, Xunmi finally let herself relax a little.
"Father, let's change the topic. I'll have to trouble you to bring some gifts to the magistrate."
She facepalmed. If she didn't make proper arrangements for the rest of this old man's life and get rid of all obstacles, she wouldn't feel at ease.
It was better to do more when he could.
With a wave of his hand, he sat down on the chair beside the corpse and said helplessly.
"Don't go, they are all in cahoots. Sigh, my daughter, I didn't want to tell you these things."
"But now that things have come to this, there's nothing I can do." He sighed and pretended to be worried, causing Xunmi's heart to feel a little heavy. She was waiting for him to continue, but in the end …
"Take your belongings and run away with him. Don't come back," Qiu Zhihao said with a serious face, causing Xunmi to spit out a mouthful of blood.
Damn it, could he be more reliable? She just wanted to ask if he could be more serious.
Father Qiu: F * ck, I'm clearly being serious. You unfilial daughter.
Xunmi didn't feel good. She was completely defeated, really.
The two of them exchanged glances, causing sparks to fly. It looked inexplicably ferocious.
"Father!" Xunmi called out seriously.
Qiu Zhihao immediately sat up straight and raised his head. "What?"
"We can't have a pleasant conversation. If this continues, your daughter will be played to death by you sooner or later."
"I'll say it now. Listen and do as I say, okay? During this time, you're not allowed to speak. Do you hear me?"
She felt that if she didn't agree to her father's request, she would be the one to break down in the end.
She seemed to have met an elder with such a temperament before, but perhaps it wasn't because of her father, she didn't have a deeper conversation with him.
That was why Xunmi felt that Father Qiu often made her speechless.
After all, he was really doing it for her own good. She wasn't an ungrateful person, so logically, she automatically calculated the scope of his actions.
"Sigh, fathers have no human rights these days. Unfilial daughter, unfilial daughter."
Qiu Zhihao sighed and complained, but he was happily smoking the pipe in his mouth.
Xunmi pressed her right hand to stop herself from reaching out with her devil claws, snatching the pipe from his mouth, throwing it to the ground and stomping on it.
That wasn't right. He was her father. She had to be calm.
"Hmm? Say it. I'm not going to speak anymore. Why aren't you saying anything, unfilial daughter? "
With that, Qiu Zhihao continued smoking. That feeling, needless to say, was really carefree.
Xunmi felt that it would be a pity if her cheap father didn't become an actor.
"Regardless of whether the county magistrate is in cahoots with the county magistrate, we have to go. Today's matter will definitely blow up. We have to go and show our sincerity.
We have to let them know our attitude. If the Qiu family falls, what will happen to Dragonrock Village and Wuyongzhen? "
To be honest, Qiu Zhihao was a really good person. If it wasn't for his hobby of hanging around brothels, he would probably have been awarded the title of 'Good Landlord'.
To put it bluntly, if the Qiu family fell, it would be better if a fair county magistrate took over.
However, if it was Cheng He … That would really be a joke, and the people would be filled with complaints.
This time, Qiu Zhihao didn't say anything bad to his daughter. He started to think.
"Actually, the county magistrate has been wanting to take over my family's property for a long time. He also wants to uproot the Qiu family while he's at it.
"Back then, when I said that I wouldn't leave Dragonrock Village, I didn't want them to be so hostile towards us and not pay special attention to us.
"But you also know that they're too greedy. Plus, with the few of us here, they won't be able to get much out of us.
"They can't wait to get rid of us and let them do whatever they want."
"Daughter, your father is just a landlord." Qiu Zhihao had his own reasons for being helpless.
After living in Dragonrock Village for so many years, he had developed feelings for the village. They were neighbors and everyone was familiar with each other. Naturally, he didn't want to see this peaceful and harmonious place destroyed.
But sometimes, it wasn't something that could be avoided just because he didn't want to.
Xunmi smiled and said confidently, "Father, you're really old and muddle-headed.
"I say, your brain must have been blown dry by those girls over the years. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Poor thing."
Xunmi, who had finally found a chance to redeem herself, retorted decisively. She didn't give the other party any face at all.
After all, this father and daughter despised each other. ~ (̄ Д ̄) ̄
The corners of Yan Mou's eyes twitched as she watched, but she didn't miss any important points. It seemed that the matter couldn't be delayed any longer. They had to do it tonight.
