In any case, Ye Xiaotian sent his daughter back through all kinds of hardships. This is a great kindness. It's not easy to pursue, Father Xue can only smile wryly and go forward to thank Ye Xiaotian.
Ye Xiaotian took the opportunity to explain the purpose of coming, and Father Xue's face darkened immediately when he heard it.
Father Xue said bluntly: "Brother Xiaotian..."
Ye Xiaotian said: "Don't call him uncle, the younger generation can't bear it."
Father Xue ignored this and continued: "You have gone to great lengths to send my daughter back. This is a great kindness. My Xue family is very grateful. But there is no reason for you to send my daughter back. I have to send my daughter to you." marry you… "
Ye Xiaotian said: "Of course there is no reason for this, and the junior and you always say it is not reason. In fact, this matter has nothing to do with reason. To put it bluntly, it is that the junior and Lingmei walk together all the way, get along day and night, share weal and woe, and love each other for a long time. , and now the two are happy, so it is logical that we should... "
Father Xue's expression changed drastically, he jumped forward like a zombie, grabbed Ye Xiaotian's neck, and said angrily: "What did you say, what did you say? What happened to you and my daughter? What did you do to my daughter? "
"Whoa whoa… "
Father Xue was not as brave as this time when he was fighting against the shrew next door. When he heard that his daughter seemed to have been taken advantage of by this person, he was as brave as a tiger, and with red eyes, he grabbed Ye Xiaotian's neck. Ye Xiaotian wanted to talk , but how can he say it
Ye Xiaotian blushed from holding back, and kept pointing his finger at his throat. Seeing this, Shui Wu hurriedly stepped forward to pull his father away, and said angrily, "Father, what are you thinking, Brother Ye and I don't care about anything!"
Father Xue stared and asked his daughter nervously: "It's nothing, so what's going on?"
Shui Wu paused and said, "It doesn't matter what it is."
Xue's mother understood at this time, and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade: "Old man, don't worry, don't you know what kind of person our daughter is? She will not do things that are offensive and humiliating. Yes." Mother Xue said here, turned to Ye Xiaotian, and said with a pleasant face: "Brother Xiaotian, don't you think so?"
Ye Xiaotian was confused when he heard it, and said blankly: "Ah? How is it? No, what is it?"
Mother Xue shook her head, sighed and said with a smile: "Young man, I understand your thoughts. But my daughter has been betrothed to someone else for a long time, and breaking the marriage and breaking promises is not the way to be human. Young man, your kindness, my family People are very grateful, but they cannot betroth their daughter to you because of this."
Ye Xiaotian said sincerely: "Auntie, I really like your daughter. Although Shui Wu didn't say anything, I can see that she actually likes me. You don't want to ruin the marriage and break your promise, so do you want your daughter to live happily ever after she gets married? Not happy? This junior is sincerely proposing to your two elders, and now this junior is considered to have a small savings, with a small two hundred taels of silver, and after marrying Shui Wu, he will be able to live in peace, so the two elders can rest assured."
Father Xue said loudly: "No way! My Xue family and Xie family have been friends for decades. This marriage letter has been issued. Can you still regret the marriage? Don't say any more, because you sent my daughter back, I don't want to be with you Swearing at each other, but if you don't leave, I will not be polite!"
Ye Xiaotian wanted to say more, but Father Xue had already kicked him out: "Brother Ye, please leave immediately!"
Shui Wu couldn't stand it anymore, and said angrily: "Father! Brother Ye is my benefactor. If it wasn't for him, even if my daughter is still alive, I don't know what terrible end she would end up in. How could you treat him like this!"
Father Xue said angrily: "If you don't treat him like this, how can you treat him? Ask him to be your son-in-law! Do you have to promise yourself with your body if you know how to repay your kindness? You girl, you are shameless, no wonder he knows you Even if you are engaged, you dare to come to your door, if you are more careful, how can you attract bees and butterflies!"
Xue Shuiwu was reprimanded by her father, her eyes were red, tears fell down, and she choked up and said: "Why is my daughter attracting bees and butterflies? How can a father say that about his daughter."
Father Xue said angrily: "You still dare to talk stubbornly, the bigger you are, the more you have no rules, go back to the house!"
Xue Shuiwu stomped her feet angrily, turned around and went into the back room. Ye Xiaotian saw that this was a bad start, and he didn't want to make the relationship with Xue's father too stiff, and it would be difficult to meet in the future, so he had better withdraw his troops for the time being and come back when he was fully prepared, so he hurried Said: "Okay, this junior will leave now, the uncle calms down, and this junior will come to visit another day."
Father Xue said angrily: "Go, go, you don't have to come again some other day, you are not welcome in our Xue family."
Father Xue was talking, and suddenly saw Le Yao standing timidly by the side, and said: "There is also this little girl, you also take it away, she is not from our Xue family, our Xue family can take care of her." I'm sorry for idlers."
Upon hearing this, Mother Xue quit, and said to Father Xue: "Master, how could you do this? This is Miss's flesh and blood. We were taken care of by Miss at the beginning. How can we forget this kindness. Now Miss died young , leaving only such a child, we..."
Father Xue said in disgust: "Miss, so what about Miss? Miss's family has long been defeated, and even Miss's biological father doesn't recognize her. We are just servants in the house who use money to do things. Should we raise the children for her? You old woman will be kind and soft, go back to the house!"
At this time, Shui Wu, who went back to the house, heard that her father was going to drive Le Yao away, so she immediately drove out again. In the past few years, she and Yaoyao have depended on each other for life. Although Yaoyao is not her flesh and blood, she has long been in love with her flesh and blood. How can she accept that she wants to drive Yaoyao away.
Immediately, the mother and daughter started arguing with Xue's father. Xue's father blew his beard and stared, slapped the table and kicked the stool, but the mother and daughter couldn't accept this. Wu, stop arguing, just follow me far away."
Shui Wu said to him with red eyes: "How can this be, Brother Ye..."
Ye Xiaotian interrupted her, and said with a smile: "It's okay, you and Yaoyao are close, why not I, after this journey, we have long been in love with the same family, right?" He gave Shui Wu a wink, Tint her to stay calm.
What Ye Xiaotian said was a pun, but Shui Wu didn't refute this time. She looked at Ye Xiaotian with red eyes, and suddenly felt an urge to go with him, but...as if a lead weight had fallen from her feet, One step, so difficult.
Ye Xiaotian turned to Xue's father again, and said with a smile: "It's too bad to be angry. Uncle is old, and he should cultivate himself. Let's calm down. Shui Wu just came home after traveling thousands of miles. Don't make trouble for the whole family. The younger generation will leave now." .”
Ye Xiaotian picked up Yaoyao after finishing speaking and left, Shui Wu's tears flowed down the ground, chasing to the door, leaning weakly on the door frame, covering her face and crying.
Yaoyao had already started to understand, seeing the quarrel between Shui Wu and her father had frightened her, so she didn't struggle for a moment. Fuwa'er was greeted by no one at all, but it was very smart, and it remained unwavering with Dingyao. When its best little master left, it immediately followed.
Just as Ye Xiaotian walked out of the courtyard, a smile appeared in his eyes. Although he was full of confidence when he came, if everything goes well, he doesn't need to think about the future at all. What he really needs to think about is what to do if he encounters trouble, so he is mentally prepared.
What Ye Xiaotian is worried about is that if Shui Wu's father is a righteous gentleman who accepts death and agrees that the marriage certificate has been exchanged, the daughter will not marry another no matter what, then this matter will really be difficult to handle. He is Shui Wu's father, no matter how he can't use inappropriate means to the old man, he can only start with Xie's family.
But Father Xue's move to drive Le Yao away gave Ye Xiaotian hope. Father Xue is definitely not a square man who can't be subdued by power, rich and rich and can't be lewd.
It's just that Ye Xiaotian still hasn't figured out the most important point, he doesn't know what Father Xue wants. Two hundred taels of silver is already a huge savings for an ordinary family. Although it is impossible for him to give all the money to Xue's family, even if he only takes fifty taels as a dowry gift, that is still an ordinary family's savings. It is beyond the reach of others, and the dowry of ordinary people is barely even five taels of silver. However, Father Xue refused without hesitation. It seemed that this condition could not impress him.
Ye Xiaotian carried Le Yao into the carriage and thought to himself: "As long as you ask for something, I will teach you to send your daughter to me as a wife after I figure it out."
Ye Xiaotian put Le Yao on the car, and Le Yao woke up. She suddenly cried out, jumped up, hugged Ye Xiaotian's neck, and cried loudly: "Mother doesn't want me anymore, mother doesn't want me anymore, woo woo woo…”
Ye Xiaotian hugged her small body, patted her on the back lightly, and said softly: "Don't cry, your mother is not here, but Brother Xiaotian is still here. Brother Xiaotian promises you, sooner or later he will definitely take your mother Come out, let's reunite as a family!"
Le Yao twitched and said authentically: "That old man is so fierce..."
Ye Xiaotian smiled and said: "Brother Xiaotian is here, brother Xiaotian is very capable, and he only rules the wicked and the wicked!"
Le Yao asked with tears in his eyes, "Really?"
Ye Xiaotian raised his chin proudly: "Who am I?"
"You are brother Xiaotian!"
Le Yao smiled through tears, and hugged Ye Xiaotian's neck tightly.
※※※
Father Xue's attitude is so bad, Ye Xiaotian will not be able to rely on Xue's house until he finds out what he really thinks. Once the relationship between the two deteriorates, it will be difficult to remedy it. So after leaving Xue's house, Ye Xiaotian immediately drove the carriage back to the city.
When they arrived at the inn, they ordered Xiao Er to take off the jacket and feed the horse. Ye Xiaotian took Le Yao's hand and led Fu Wa'er into the living room when he heard a loud and sturdy voice: "Shopkeeper, you rats are recruiting people!" No? I'm pretty capable, really."
This special accent and tone made Ye Xiaotian stop consciously and look around, and Ye Xiaotian recognized this person with just one glance. Isn't this person the one that Su Xuntian found in order to deal with Meng County Prime Minister? Strong witness"
The shopkeeper smiled and waved his hand to reject the ugly big man. The big man didn't bother, and walked out resentfully. He suddenly saw Ye Xiaotian holding the hand of a little girl, who was looking at him in surprise, and immediately gave a bull's-eyed stare, saying: "What are you looking at me for?"
If Ye Xiaotian was from his hometown, he would have to stalk his neck immediately, and stare at him likewise: "Why do I just look at you?" Then the two of them moved forward with their arms swaying, you punched me and kicked each other. There was a big fight, but fortunately Ye Xiaotian had never been out of Shanhaiguan in his life, so he just said with a smile: "You are Mao Wenzhi, right?"
Mao Wenzhi was shocked when he heard this: "Oh my god, how do you know me? Are you my cellmate?"
