Chapter 642: Agreement Chapter 642: Agreement Editor: Atlas Studios After some pondering, Chief Jiāan said, āBut Liu Dahei is too old!ā This was what he found most unsatisfactory about Liu Dahei.
How could his delicate daughter marry such a pile of cow dung?
Chen Jiacai coughed lightly and said, āFather-in-law, if Liu Dahei doesnāt distinguish so much between the Miao and the Han, heās not a bad choice.ā He said tactfully, āAfter all, Sister has to live with that person for the rest of her life.
If that person looks down on the Miao people from the bottom of his heartĆ¢ā¬Ā¦ā Considering Jinhua felt that the Miao people were good in every way, it was unlikely that her marriage would be blissful if she married a Han person who despised the Miao people.
It was because he grew up in the Miao stockade that he regarded the Miao people as his family.
The people in the Miao stockade also treated him like one of them, so he and Hanlan could live a good life.
However, even the few Han villages near the Miao stockade hated them, and vice versa.
That day, when they went to the military camp, they saw that those in the army were respectful to them only because they were the Princeās guests.
Other than Liu Dahei, the few generals who knew that they were going on a blind date with Jinhua all had disdain in their eyes.
It could be seen that the Miao and Han were prejudiced against each other.
After hesitating for two days, Chief Jiāan decided to talk to Liu Dahei.
He also wanted to know what Liu Dahei thought of his daughter.
Liu Dahei considered this meeting with Chief Jiāan as meeting his future father-in-law, so he deliberately dressed up to make himself look younger.
Only then did he go to see his potential father-in-law with the precious dagger he had snatched from Lin Man.
It couldnāt be helped.
He couldnāt think of anything else to give to a man who had an interest in martial arts like him.
Chief Jiāan sat in the restaurant and looked at the bustling crowd below with disappointment.
Half of the people below were Han Chinese and the other half were Miao people.
However, while Han Chinese could open shops, the Miao people could only set up stalls by the roadside.
He wondered when his fellowmen would be able to open a large shop in the city without discriminationĆ¢ā¬Ā¦ Liu Dahei walked in respectfully and bowed.
āGreetings, Uncle.ā The corners of Chief Jiāanās mouth twitched.
He waved his hand and said, āJust call me Chief Jiāan.ā āErmĆ¢ā¬Ā¦ā Wouldnāt this sound too distant?
āWhy donāt you call me Big Brother Jiāan then?
Anyway, Iām not much older.ā Liu Dahei immediately shouted, āHello, Chieftain!ā Chief Jiāan motioned for him to sit down.
With his eyes widened, he sized the fellow up and down for a long time.
Other than being burly, he was also tanned.
He did not understand why his daughter would fall for such a man.
On the other hand, his eldest daughter had normal aesthetic taste, for Jiacai was handsome and elegant.
Why did his youngest daughterās aesthetic taste deviate so greatly?
Liu Dahei straightened his back and sat there stiffly as Chief Jiāan glared at him for a long time.
Seeing that Chief Jiāan was getting more and more dissatisfied, he quickly revealed his sincerity.
āChieftain, I really wish to marry Jinhua.
Please give your blessings to the both of us.ā Chief Jiāan snorted.
āDo you dare to swear that youāre 100% sincere to Jinhua and not doing this for the benefits brought about by the marriage?ā Liu Dahei was silent for a moment, and his face became more and more respectful.
He looked up at Chief Jiāan honestly and said, āChieftain, I donāt doubt that the benefits are one of the considerations, but I do genuinely adore Jinhua.
If I donāt like her, even if I know that this marriage will bring great benefits, I wonāt accept His Highnessās matchmaking, because Jinhua will be the mother of my children in the future.
As the only remaining bloodline of the Liu clan, my first consideration is not my career prospects, but the Liu clanās bloodline.
As for me, I hope that my bloodline will be continued by Jinhua.ā Chief Jiāanās expression softened.
It had to be said that Liu Dahei had struck his heartstrings.
Sighing, he said, āItās not that I donāt want to give you my blessings, but Iām afraid that your personalities wonāt be compatible.
Jinhua has a bad temper, and youāre not a soft-hearted person.
Once you quarrel and donāt give in to each other, itāll inevitably hurt the relationship between husband and wife.
Besides, you Han men like to take in many concubines.
Iām afraid my straightforward Jinhua wonāt be a match for the Han women.
When the time comes, she wonāt even have a place to cry.ā Liu Dahei was sweating profusely as he hurriedly promised, āFather-in-law, donāt worry.
As long as Jinhua can continue my bloodline before she turns 30, be it a boy or a girl, I will never get a concubine or a handmaid.
As for personality, you have even less to worry about.
Seeing as Iām already in my thirties, I consider myself blessed to be able to marry a wife.
As such, Iāll definitely dote on Jinhua.
Sheās still young, so Iāll naturally give in to her as if Iām raising a daughter.ā At first, Jiāan listened attentively and was smiling in her heart.
When he heard the last sentence though, he couldnāt help but kick him and say, āSheās my daughter.
Do I need you to raise her like a daughter?ā Liu Daheiās face was covered in cold sweat as he hurriedly clarified, āI misspoke, Father-in-law.
No, Chieftain.
Iāll definitely raise her as my wifeĆ¢ā¬Ā¦ā Jiāan said with a dark expression, āI havenāt agreed to marry my daughter to you.ā Liu Dahei said with a bitter expression, āChieftainĆ¢ā¬Ā¦ā He felt that he was getting more and more wrong.
Jiāan waved his hand and left.
Liu Dahei felt that his prospects were bleak, so he could only turn around and look for the Prince, hoping that he could give him some advice.
Qi Haoran nearly couldnāt stop himself from tapping Liu Daheiās forehead.
āI thought that you were a smart fellow.
Why are you so stupid?
Didnāt you ask Fei Bai for advice previously?ā āBut Your Highness, Fei Bai didnāt tell me what to say when I meet my future father-in-law.
He himself is unmarried, right?ā Liu Dahei looked at Qi Haoran longingly.
āYour Highness, since you have experience, teach me a little.ā Qi Haoran tilted his head and said smugly, āWe donāt have anything in common.
My father-in-law is very satisfied with me and regards me as his own son.
You can go to the army to find someone who wasnāt liked by his father-in-law and seek that guyās advice.ā Would he really not be beaten up by his colleagues if he asked this?
Liu Dahei looked at Qi Haoran pitifully.
Qi Haoran blocked his gaze with his hand and said, āDonāt look anymore.
I canāt come up with any ideas.ā Liu Dahei said hesitantly, āPerhaps Her Highness might knowĆ¢ā¬Ā¦ā He didnāt believe that Father Mu was 100% satisfied with Qi Haoran.
Which father would be completely delighted with a son-in-law who had snatched his daughter away?
Understanding the unspoken intentions, Qi Haoranās face darkened.
He kicked Liu Daihei out and snapped, āScram!ā After Jiāan returned to the Miao stockade, he thought for a long time.
In the end, he called his daughter over and asked her, āAre you sure about Liu Dahei?ā Jinhua nodded fiercely.
Jiāan sighed.
If Liu Dahei said that he proposed solely because he liked Jinhua, he would definitely not believe him and think that this person was hypocritical.
Even if objecting would make his daughter sad, he would definitely not agree to this marriage.
If Liu Dahei said that he desired to marry Jinhua because of benefits, he would definitely reject him as well.
Moreover, it would be easier to explain to Jinhua.
However, Liu Dahei was honest about both being valid reasons, but his liking Jinhua was the main factor and the benefits were just a bonus.
This made Jiāan hesitate instead.
Moreover, he could tell that what Liu Dahei said was true.
This was the reason why he sighed regretfully.
His daughter was really going to be married to āa pile of cow dungā.
Jiāan closed his eyes and waved his hand.
āGet someone to inform him to come and propose marriage.ā Jinhua immediately cheered.
She hugged Jiāanās neck and shook him as she shouted, āFather, youāre the best!ā Jiāanās heart was about to break.
Hadnāt he always been the best to her?
This was his daughter!
