Chapter 22: Manhood
"Xiao'er, your heart is big enough!"
Ding Yuan sat opposite Ding Xiao, snatched the teacup in the other party's hand, raised his head and poured a few sips, and then said angrily, "Being so troubled by you, my father is so anxious that my throat is about to smoke, but you are good, you actually ran here to drink tea alone!" ”
"Hey, hey."
Ding Xiao grinned, didn't pick up the topic, and asked instead, "Father, how is Tong'er?" ”
"Don't worry, she's just a few flesh wounds, and I've sent someone to send her back. When tomorrow dawns, I will ask the military lieutenant Langzhong to go over and see her, I believe that she should be fine soon. ”
After Ding Yuan calmed down a few words, he suddenly found that Lu Bu was not on the spot, so he asked, "Huh?" What about Bongxian? ”
"Big brother has left beforehand."
Ding Xiao smiled slightly, "I guess, eldest brother, he probably doesn't want to get involved in this matter." ”
"Hey, it's better to go."
Ding Yuan smiled bitterly, if it was possible, he would also want to leave, but both ends were his close relatives, and he had to settle the matter.
"Xiao'er, you are too heavy today, although the three of them are negligent, but they are not guilty to death, you do this, you are very passive as a father!"
"Father, it's not that the child didn't give those three people a chance to live, but you can also see that they only listen to Ma's orders, and they don't talk to me at all!"
Ding lowered his face and said, "A few subordinates dare to do this to me, if this matter spreads, where is there a place for me in this assassin's mansion?!" ”
"Well, having said that, you can't leave nothing at all!" Ding Yuan felt a great headache, "You say, how should this situation end now?" ”
"Father."
Ding Xiao looked around for a while, and when he saw that there was no one around, he lowered his voice and asked, "Tell me the truth, what is the origin of this Ma clan, and why is my father a little afraid of her?" ”
"I'm afraid of her?"
Ding Yuan was accused of being afraid in front of his son, his face was a little unbearable, and he was blown up at once, "Where do you start?" Xiao'er, is someone chewing their tongue in front of you? If you tell me who said it, I will have to punish him severely! ”
"Ahem, any person can see this matter, as for whether it is or not, you can think for yourself." Ding Xiao said strangely.
He didn't expect that Ding Yuan would behave like this, like a child who did something wrong and didn't want to admit it.
"Nonsense!"
Ding Yuan blushed and said angrily, "How can I be afraid of a woman as a dignified seven-foot man?!" ”
"Okay, okay, don't be afraid."
Ding Xiao waved his hand a little irritably, "Let's talk about the point, what is the background of this Ma clan?" ”
"There's no background."
Ding Yuan looked puzzled, "Although the Ma family is the largest family in Hedong, it is still a step inferior to the strength of my Ding family's Assassin Mansion, how can I be afraid of her?" ”
"The first family in Hedong?"
Ding Xiao's eyes lit up, and he finally found the crux of the problem.
He couldn't help but ask again, "Then have you received any favor from the Ma family, or do you have any control in the hands of this Ma family?" ”
"Handle? Hmph, what handle does he dare to take from me? ”
Ding Yuan replied proudly, and then smiled embarrassedly, "As for the favor you said, it's true." ”
With that, he turned his head to look out the window, and gradually fell into the memory.
"Back then, I was just a small official, although I had a skill, but I had no way to serve the country, and at this time, the head of the Ma family appeared, he appreciated me very much, and decided to subsidize me......"
Listening to it, Ding Xiao gradually understood the ins and outs of the matter.
It turned out that the development of his father Ding Yuan was also the result of the operation of the consortium behind him.
The Ma family not only paved the way for Ding Yuan to build a bridge, allowing him to rise all the way to the high position of the history of the state and sitting on a county, but also married the eldest lady of the Ma family to him, firmly binding the interests of the two families together.
At this point, Ding Xiao finally came to his senses.
To tell the truth, Ding Yuan was just a martial artist back then, and he was indeed a little unworthy of the eldest lady of the Ma family, coupled with the background of the Ma family, which directly caused Ding Yuan to be inferior in front of the Ma family.
“…… Over time, this kind of behavior of constantly showing weakness in front of Ma will form a habit imperceptibly. ”
He speculated based on the information provided by Ding Yuan, "Maybe even you, father, don't realize that even if you are now in a high position and have long been freed from the shackles of the Ma family, or the influence, this habit has been inadvertently retained by you." ”
"If you want to say that, it seems like that's the case."
After listening to his son's analysis, Ding Yuan had some understanding.
"Of course it is!"
Ding Xiao smiled very firmly, "As the old saying goes: there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great!" Na Ma only gave birth to two daughters, but did not leave any heirs, according to the law of the Han Dynasty, her father can divorce her! But father, not only did you not pursue it, but you didn't even dare to marry a concubine, if it weren't for the father's jealousy of the Ma family, how could it be like this? ”
"Shhhh
After listening to Ding Xiao's words, Ding Yuan couldn't help but gasp.
He felt that his son was not simple before, and at this moment, there was a sense of admiration in his heart.
His son is not panicked, thoughtful, well-organized, and sharp-tongued, which can be described as a knife to the flesh!
And that's not all.
His son can still find out the truth of the matter from a few words, this kind of ability, how many people in the world can do it?
"This son is not a thing in the pool!"
After coming to this conclusion, he suddenly had a choice in his heart, and then asked, "Xiao'er, then you say, how should this matter end?" ”
Ding Yuan's expression was very solemn, if at this moment, Ding Xiao asked him to divorce his wife, he would do it without hesitation.
"Father, it depends on how you have a relationship with Ma." Ding Xiao smiled slightly, but did not say it thoroughly.
"One day husband and wife for 100 days, my father and Ma have lived together for 20 years, and there is still a relationship." Ding Yuan sighed, "Although there are some places in her body that she is really tired of being a father, it is not intolerable. ”
"Then the child will no longer pursue this matter."
Compared with the great cause of dominating the world, Ma's difficulties are actually just trivial matters, and Ding Xiao will not really let his father divorce his wife.
However, he has to settle the matter properly!
Otherwise, when he leads people to charge into battle in the future, he will have to worry about a fire in the backyard at all times, and it will be a big trouble.
"But father, you can't go on like this!" He decided to hand over Ma's hidden danger to his father to solve, so he instigated, "In front of Ma's, you have to show your manly spirit and show your majesty!" Otherwise, not only will the Ma family look down on you, but even the people in the house will talk cool behind their backs. ”
"Manhood?"
Ding Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, "You mean, let me be myself in front of her?" ”
"That's right! Acting in true colors! Ding Xiao nodded.
After Lu Bu, another person was successfully fooled by him, and this time, this person was still his father.
