Chapter 355 Me?

The man hurried over.

He had never met He Gen. If this man's daughter had not gone far away and become the prince's favorite, he would not have bothered to have anything to do with such a person.

He was welcomed to my house, but I never went to receive him.

He Gen didn't understand the etiquette of the wealthy family. He was treated to good food and drink, and when he was bored he could flirt with the pretty maid. He didn't feel he was being neglected at all.

The man came and said nothing about the chaotic scene.

Seeing his entangled look, Madam Yuan suggested, "My husband, although Ying'er is not my child, I watched her grow up."

"She is your daughter, a little girl, who was molested by a scoundrel. Even if you want to keep her, shouldn't you beat this man up to vent your anger on the child?"

As Madam Yuan finished her words, an extremely thick reed stick was brought up. It could hit He Gen hard enough to cause skin bruises. He Gen broke out in a cold sweat and finally realized that he was afraid.

But he held on to his golden ticket of immunity and shouted, "No, you can't do this to me!"

"My Zhaodi is the county head! If you dare to hit me, I will go and complain to her!"

The man hesitated for a while, then made up his mind not to look at his wife and daughter, and asked someone to untie He Gen and help him back.

He Gen wanted to show off his power. What a noble lady, he could just touch her whenever he wanted.

But seeing that the reed stick had not been withdrawn yet, he swallowed his words and walked away arrogantly.

Although the words were not spoken, the arrogant attitude was real.

Madam Yuan took pity on the girl in her arms, and the hooligan who molested her received no punishment at all. I wonder if the child will be sad about this.

The man chased the annoying person away and discussed with Madam Yuan: "I am wrong about this matter, but you and Ying'er should also be more sensible and understand me."

"If we fail to please the county lord, our family will have a much harder time living in the future."

Madam Yuan hesitated and said, "But others have taken advantage of Ying'er without paying any price. Isn't this telling others that our daughter can be bullied by just anyone?"

The man thought for a while, and then he figured it out. He promised, "I won't let this get out."

"Except for the confidants, all the servants who witnessed this had their tongues cut off and sold."

Madam Yuan was frightened and called out, "Husband?"

The man's voice didn't even waver as he continued, "Chop off the hands of those who can read."

The young lady buried in the lady's arms shuddered and buried her head deeper.

The man advised: "Be patient until the day stated in the visiting card comes, then we can send him off."

......

Xin'er impatiently dealt with the Texas nobles.

Before she left, she was told not to offend anyone in Texas without first understanding the ins and outs of the local noble families.

Give them a little hope, so that they won't unite and put all their energy into dealing with her.

Today, this man named Yuan said that he would give her a satisfying gift.

Xin'er had no expectations at all, she even expressed despair about these people's ability to give gifts.

When the cleaned-up He Gen was brought to her, Xin'er was confused.

Especially the way this man looked at her made her feel extremely uncomfortable, as if she was looking at a money tree, extremely greedy.

She frowned slightly and asked, "What does this mean, elder?"

The man said complacently: "Your Highness, you might as well try to guess his identity."

Xiner: “…”

Seeing that she was getting impatient, the man stopped beating around the bush and took credit for it, saying, "I heard that the county lord is from Texas. After much investigation, I finally found your biological father. Today is the day to celebrate the county lord's family reunion."

Xin'er was stunned for a second, unable to understand what her biological father was.

This role played no important role in her life and she had ignored it.

When she was young, she envied the women in County Magistrate Ma's family because they all had fathers. She thought that the reason she and her mother had to live under someone else's roof was because they had no father.

They scolded her for being a fatherless wild child, so in her fantasy, she would not be bullied if she had a father.

Then her mother told her that the father she had been waiting for threw her into the baby abandonment tower, and it was her mother who rushed to dig her out in front of the burning tower.

She was ignorant at the time and didn't understand what all this meant. She only knew that the father she longed for could not shelter her from the wind and rain, but instead wanted to abandon her.

After growing up, the fog of her childhood dissipated and she could see everything clearly.

When Xin'er came to her senses, He Gen had already put on his elder airs and started to scold her: "Zhao Di, you have no respect for your elders. Don't you know how to call someone when you see them? Why don't you just call me Aye?"

Zhaodi?

Xin'er pointed at herself.

"Me?"
