Xiao Luoyi couldn't laugh or cry: "You mean, my husband-in-law needs to rely on connections to become a general?"

Has his face turned pale?

Xiao Jinghai was instantly embarrassed: "...That's not what I meant."

In fact, that's what it means, but if you don't tell the truth after seeing through it, it would be so embarrassing to say it.

If an ordinary hunter wants to become a general, he must not only be good at martial arts, but also must understand the art of war, have an overall view, have insight into the ever-changing situation on the battlefield, and be able to win over people...

And a little bit of luck.

There are too many twists and turns here.

Xiao Jinghai thought that his daughter grew up in Zhuangzi and his son-in-law was a hunter in the countryside, so he must not understand these things.

But if he told the truth, he was afraid of letting his daughter feel cold.

Should I say it?

To what extent is it appropriate?

How can I not hurt my daughter's self-esteem, but still let my daughter and son-in-law stay?

Xiao Jinghai's mind was instantly knotted: This is more strenuous than talking to the king in the Jinluan Palace!

Seeing Xiao Jinghai frowning and looking like he was racking his brains, Xiao Luoyi smiled.

"I don't mean to be polite to you, I'm really planning to go back to Yongzhou Mansion. My brother-in-law is getting married soon, and we have to rush back."

Xiao Luoyi's explanation made Xiao Jinghai relieved: "Are you going back temporarily? Will you come back in the future?"

Xiao Luoyi smiled and said noncommittally: Who knows whether he will come or not?

But it’s better not to talk about death yet.

Seeing Xiao Jinghai looking at him expectantly, Xiao Luoyi decided to take the initiative to speak: "I want to go visit Zhuangzi where I grew up, but when I was hunted down, I forgot how I got out. Can I ask someone to help me?" Lead the way?"

These words were like a sharp blade, piercing into Xiao Jinghai's heart.

Such a delicate and frail little girl was being hunted down...but her own father knew nothing about it!

Xiao Jinghai blamed himself in his heart and nodded hurriedly: "Of course that's good! No, no, no, no..."

Xiao Jinghai nodded for a while, then shook his head: "Since that Zhuangzi is the place where you grew up, I gave it to you. I'll ask someone to do it now, and I'll send you the land deed soon."

Xiao Luoyi: "..."

She didn't want it, but she was afraid that if she refused, something else would happen, so she just stopped talking.

Just give it if you give it.

It is said that this man is his biological father, the head of the Xiao family, the first aristocratic family in Dali City. He can afford a village for himself.

Xiao Jinghai went to the door and gave a few instructions. There was a sound of footsteps outside: the people around him were running errands.

While waiting for the land deed, Xiao Jinghai looked at Xiao Luoyi carefully several times.

The clothes looked quite thick, and although it was a fine cotton jacket with fox fur inlays on the cuffs and neckline, how could she, as the second young lady of the Xiao family, wear such a petty thing?

"Can I have someone bring you some clothes and jewelry?"

Xiao Luoyi waved his hand and refused: "My husband and I are going to take a long journey. It's not good to dress too ostentatiously. It will cause trouble."

Xiao Jinghai felt sad again: "I didn't think well. I will allocate fifty more guards to you to escort you back to Yongzhou Mansion. They will all be at your disposal from now on."

Xiao Luoyi waved his hands even more: "That's not possible! My family is small, and fifty people are gone, where can we live?!"

"Yes, yes, there is still a place to live. I will get you some money later. When you go back, you can ask someone to renovate the house, or buy a big house in Yongzhou Mansion? Is fifty thousand taels enough?"

Before Xiao Luoyi could speak, he denied it himself: "No, no, fifty thousand taels is enough to buy a house in Yongzhou Mansion, but you also need to maintain guards and servants... If fifty thousand taels is not enough, take one hundred thousand first Two?"

The plate rolled bigger and bigger.

Xiao Luoyi: "..."

She could finally see that this new and hot biological father was full of debts to herself at this time, and he must first make up for himself materially. After thinking about it, Xiao Luoyi said: "You can give me the money, but don't give me the guards. I'll keep a low profile. My husband can protect me."

"You are my Xiao Jinghai's daughter, why do you keep a low profile? You don't have to keep a low profile!" Xiao Jinghai became excited and raised his voice slightly.

Xiao Luoyi: "!!!"

Chen Huaijin: "..."

Seeing that his daughter and son-in-law were "stunned", Xiao Jinghai was annoyed at his eagerness and had to soften his voice again.

"I just feel sorry for you..."

Xiao Luoyi sighed: "If you really feel sorry for me, why not help me find my mother?"

As a son of a human being, I don’t have the impression of being a “mother” in this life.

Because the relationship is too close, there is no way to figure out where the other person is.

But after entering Dali City, she vaguely knew that her mother was still alive.

Xiao Jinghai didn't know it, and fell into guilt again: Yang Suqing was drugged by Zheng Mingyue's people and thrown into a coma in the snow. Her whereabouts are unknown since then. Who knows if she can still be found?

But Xiao Jinghai didn't dare to speak directly, fearing that Xiao Luoyi would not be able to withstand the blow.

"I didn't think carefully at the beginning, but now after so many years, I'm afraid it won't be easy to find your mother..."

After learning the news, Xiao Jinghai asked someone to investigate last night, but no news has come back yet.

After all, more than ten years had passed, and it was such a deserted snowy night. Where could the clues come from?

Deep down, Xiao Jinghai felt that Yang Suqing was definitely dead.

My daughter had lost her mother since she was a child, and he didn't know her existence... Xiao Jinghai felt even more guilty.

Xiao Luoyi didn't realize it and just nodded, feeling embarrassed again.

Xiao Jinghai looked at the clothes and accessories of Xiao Luoyi and Chen Huaijin, and asked Xiao Luoyi hesitantly: "What did it look like when you got married?"

When you get married...

When he mentioned this, Xiao Luoyi instantly raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Huaijin.

Chen Huaijin was helpless: "You can just say what you want without worrying about me."

"Ahem!" Xiao Luoyi couldn't help but smile as he recalled the past, "Well... the situation is not good."

"What's wrong?" Xiao Jinghai asked.

"My husband-in-law... has a complicated family background. His three brothers lived with their mother in the countryside. After her mother passed away, a former servant took away everything from the house in the name of taking care of her..."

Xiao Luoyi concealed Chen Huaijin's identity as the legitimate son of the Hou Mansion and recounted the original situation.

When he heard that his family had only a shabby bed and no wedding clothes, Xiao Jinghai felt heartbroken!

My own daughter!

When they got married, they didn’t even have a wedding dress or two red candles!

He looked at Chen Huaijin with wide eyes: "Your family is so poor, how can you have the nerve to marry my daughter?"

Xiao Luoyi remembered what he hadn't said before, and quickly added: "I was chased there, and it was my husband who saved me at that time. They say that there is no way to repay the kindness of saving a life, so I had to give my life to him."

"I'll pledge myself to you!" Xiao Luoyi spread his hands and glanced at Chen Huaijin, his eyes full of teasing smiles.

Jamel Xiao: I feel even more distressed! Ouch!
