Xiao Jing sneered: "Second uncle, you are joking. If you had instigated the Xiao family's supreme elder to sell our family's old 300,000 spirit stones, I would have no third brother."
"Nephew, what are you saying? I'm not the Patriarch of the Xiao family. How can I, an ordinary member of the Xiao family, be the Patriarch of the Xiao family? Who would believe it if I told others?"
"No one believes it. After all, no one would believe that a biological father would sacrifice his own daughter to let someone else take over his body." Xiao Jing said with a smile.
Uncle Xiao's smile froze: "My dear nephew, I'm afraid you are possessed by a demon."
"Uncle, can you try to make me lose my mind?"
"Good boy, don't be rude." The Xiao family head interrupted his son, "Those are your second uncle's family affairs. Your second uncle has eight sons and seven daughters."
Xiao Jing raised an eyebrow. "Father is as ruthless as ever!" No wonder he was able to plan everything so flawlessly. Even though his third brother's identity had been replaced, he still didn't harbor any resentment towards him.
☆
"As you all have seen today, we are indeed a little late. Throughout this wasteland, any decent place has already been taken over by larger forces." Patriarch Xiao returned to the point. "Our Xiao family is but a small clan in Huwei City. We are powerless to seize territory by force. Please tell us what we should do."
Uncle Xiao glanced at his eldest brother at the top, then looked at his third brother who looked as if he had nothing to do with the matter, and said, "Brother, just tell me what you mean. I'm not very smart."
The Xiao family head said, "Since you've said that, I'll get straight to the point. When I came here, I saw a cliff behind the Wanxiang Pavilion. It's not a good place, but it can be cleaned up. Even if I can't take the whole thing, I can still put a treasure there. It's a pity that when my Yu'er left home, some people took over the affairs of the family head, making it difficult for me to speak to the young master Xingzhi now. So, I have to trouble my second brother. After all, when Furong got married, the Xiao family gave her a dowry of 8 million spirit stones and many spirit treasures."
"Brother, you are the head of the family. If your son gets married without a dowry, what does it have to do with me..."
☆
"Second brother, stop whining. We all know the specific situation. Just tell me whether you are going or not. If you don't go, I will go and ask the Young Master of Yuanhang why the previous Young Master didn't ask for any dowry when he married the head of the family's legitimate son, but he asked for 8 million spirit stones and so many spiritual treasures from our Xiao family. If anyone who wants to marry our Xiao family's daughters in the future does this, our Xiao family will be divided up directly." Uncle Xiao said, pointing to the three daughters he brought with him. "I brought three daughters this time, and I'm counting on them to marry into good families. I don't have that many spirit stones for a dowry. When you get married, be smart and remember to ask your second uncle for help."
"Yes, father." The three legitimate daughters and concubine daughters of Uncle Xiao San responded together, and then looked at Uncle Xiao Er together, "Thank you, Uncle Er."
Second Uncle Xiao: ╰_ ╯Thank you@#! Xiao Furong's dowry is hers. Does it have anything to do with the Xiao family or me?
But at the beginning, in order to make Zhou Yuanhang feel honored and let Xiao Furong marry in style, he publicized the dowry matter in Huwei City and even the surrounding Hucheng.
Nowadays, who doesn’t want to marry a girl from the Xiao family and become rich overnight!
The problem is, Zhou Yuanhang and Zhou Xingzhi are completely different types of people. If he gets angry, Xiao Furong might be in trouble. He, the fake father, might not live long!
"I can come forward, but big brother, one million..."
"One hundred thousand."
"One hundred thousand!" Uncle Xiao stood up suddenly. "Brother, you're afraid, you're just dreaming."
"Second brother, when Xiao Furong plotted against my son, this 100,000 yuan was not only a slap in the face of me, but also the face of my entire Xiao family."
Second Uncle Xiao and the Xiao Family Master looked at each other for a moment, and suddenly he gave up and said, "I can't afford a hundred thousand."
☆
"Knock knock knock..." There was a knock on the door.
"What's the matter?" asked the head of the Xiao family.
The guard's voice soon came from outside the door: "Report to the head of the family, Miss Eleven sent someone to say that she has arranged another place for the second family. She would like to invite the second master to go there and be very careful."
Patriarch Xiao and Third Uncle Xiao looked at Second Uncle Xiao together: ...
Uncle Xiao's neck shrank, a flash of fear in his eyes: "No one comes to the temple for no reason. This 'Xiao Furong' definitely wants him to do something." It's over, it's over. With so many forces at this time, no matter what they do, it's definitely not a good thing.
