Chapter 065 Extraneous branches
This scene is really a bit terrifying, so many people are all staring at you in a daze, like a hungry wolf, which can't help but make Li Biao's heart tremble.
It made him very uncomfortable, harder than fighting a big fight. If he encounters an enemy, he can be fearless, and he can raise a knife to kill him without saying a word. But in the face of so many Liu family's clansmen, it made it a little difficult for him to resist.
"Under Li Qing, I've seen you. He pulled out a smile and said gently, trying to keep his composure.
"Do you dare to ask which big family Li Xian's nephew is from?" someone asked.
"Big family?" Li Qing was stunned, and then understood that this was asking about his family background, so he shook his head and said: "This is not, I was born poor, my family background is ordinary, and I have no background. β
"What do your parents do?"
"My parents are dead, and I have no relatives. Li Qing replied honestly.
Everyone's faces changed instantly, and their gazes at Li Qing were no longer so kind. A poor boy with an ordinary family background, his parents are dead, he has no background, and he even wants to marry the proud daughter of the Liu family?
This is simply a toad wanting to eat swan meat! This kind of thing must not be allowed to happen!
However, they were polite in the end, and they didn't directly say what they thought in their hearts, so as not to embarrass people.
After all, this person is also Liu Keer's fiancΓ© who personally admitted, and with so many people present, it is obviously not appropriate to say something.
Some people secretly plan to find an opportunity to persuade Liu Keer in the future, so as not to be deceived by others. They thought that it must be this person's rhetoric that made Liu Keer fooled.
Li Qing couldn't help frowning when he saw everyone's not-so-kind eyes. He guessed what everyone was thinking, and knew that he was being disliked.
However, although these people are a little snobbish, they don't say anything unpleasant to their faces, so it's not easy for him to say anything.
In fact, as long as he identifies himself, he can dispel the doubts of these people. But he wasn't going to do it, because it seemed like he was boasting.
And there is no need for this. As long as Liu's father and Liu's mother know the details, the rest of the people don't need to pay too much attention.
Mother Liu kept holding Liu Keer in her arms and looked at her dotingly. Hearing Li Qing talk about his background, he didn't care too much, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if you don't have a background, as long as you are happy with each other." I believe that Kerr's vision will not be bad, you should be an honest child, and you will not let Kerr's be wronged. β
Obviously, she is a reasonable person, as long as Liu Keer likes it, she will not object.
"Mother, who said that Li Qing has no background?" Liu Ke'er saw that everyone seemed to disdain Li Qing, and immediately stopped, "He is grandpa's apprentice, the inner disciple of the Eight Desolation Sect, and his future is limitless, isn't this a background? β
"Old man's apprentice?" everyone's faces changed again, and they eased up in an instant. I see! Since he is Elder Liu's apprentice, he is his own person, and this family business can be regarded as a good match.
Li Qing couldn't help but laugh a little when he saw that everyone's attitudes had changed twice in a short period of time, and the speed of changing their faces was so fast that they couldn't help but cry and laugh. These people are too snobbish. Are all the people in the big family like this?
"Since Li Xian's nephew is the old man's apprentice, it must be very powerful. β
"Of course. Liu Ke'er said proudly, "Li Qing's strength is very strong, and no one is invincible among the younger generation of the Eight Desolation Sect, and even I am not his opponent. β
"Even you are not his opponent? Haven't you already reached the tenth layer of the day after tomorrow? How can you be more powerful than you?" Everyone was shocked, they didn't expect this young man to be so good that he could compare the pride of the Liu family.
"His strength is much stronger than mine, an ordinary tenth-layer martial artist can't do three moves in his hands, won't it be easy to win against me?" she began to brag, telling Li Qing's glorious deeds with oil and vinegar, praising as if there was no one in the sky and on the ground, and even Li Qing himself blushed when he heard it.
Obviously, Liu Keer did it on purpose, wanting everyone to know how powerful Li Qing was, so as not to be underestimated.
When Liu's mother saw her daughter defending this young man like this, she knew that she couldn't see her sweetheart being wronged, and it was conceivable that the relationship between the two must be excellent.
"An ordinary acquired tenth-layer martial artist can't make three moves in his hands, isn't that about to compare to an innate powerhouse?" everyone was taken aback by her.
"Innate powerhouse, what is that! Li Qing has even killed one of the innate powerhouses!" Liu Ke'er disdained, and opened his mouth to say something shocking.
"How is it possible?" Everyone was speechless, bragging about the Basic Law, it was too exaggerated and no one believed it. Even the weakest innate powerhouse is not something that a martial artist in the acquired realm can match.
"How is it impossible? Moreover, it is not an ordinary innate powerhouse who is killed, but the innate of the Eight Desolation Sect! This matter is well known in the Eight Desolation Sect, and it cannot be faked. Liu Ke'er rolled her eyes, very dissatisfied with their suspicions.
The innate powerhouses in the big sects are more powerful than the ordinary congenitals outside.
When everyone saw that she was talking about things as if it were true, they couldn't help but believe it a little. However, when I think of the strength of the innate powerhouse, I am very skeptical.
"It's impossible to think about it, it's too fake. They thought.
"Of course, the process is a bit tricky, and it took some powerful means to kill that innate. Liu Keer added.
"I see!" It is speculated that it may be some weapons of great destruction given by the elders of the sect, not to kill the innate powerhouse by its own strength.
Rao is so, and it is shocking enough. Killing the innate the day after tomorrow is simply a miracle, enough for people to brag about for a lifetime. Even if only three points of these things are true, it proves that this young man is very good.
Everyone's thoughts about Li Qing suddenly changed greatly, and there couldn't help but have a trace of awe in their eyes.
Liu Keer saw everyone's awe-inspiring eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little proud in her heart. He looked at Li Qing for a moment and winked mischievously.
.........
Next, they chatted for a while and asked Li Qing many questions, and he answered them honestly one by one.
Li Qing didn't have many words, he would answer whatever everyone asked, and he was a little not very active.
This made them a little disappointed, thinking that this person was a martial idiot.
"Anyway, why hasn't the old man come back himself? He hasn't been back for years. Liu Mu asked.
"He said that he had something important to do in the Eight Desolations Sect, so he wouldn't come back, just let the two of us come back. Liu Keer replied.
"I see. Does the old man know about your family? Does he agree?"
"Of course. He asked us to come back and tell you about it. β
"Now that we have the old man's consent, there is no problem. The crowd laughed dryly, thinking that they were worrying about it. Who dares to go against the will of the ancestors of the Liu family?
"Then mother, do you mean to agree to our marriage?" Liu Ke'er said.
"Of course I won't object, and besides, with the old man's intentions, it's useless for me to object. Mother Liu looked at Liu Keer with a smile.
"What do you mean, father?" asked Liu Ke'er patiently, one by one.
"Well, I wouldn't have objected to it at first, butβ" Father Liu's voice changed, his face showed embarrassment, and he spoke in a slurred manner.
"But what?" Liu Ke'er felt that the situation was not good, could it be some accident?
"Well, speaking of which, that was many years ago. Father Liu sighed, "I don't know who remembers, we ordered a doll for Ke'er back then?"
"Doll pro?" Liu Ke'er and Li Qing's faces changed greatly, they didn't expect such a thing to happen.
Everyone was also stunned and recalled carefully.
"Why don't I know anything about this?Mother, is what my father said true?" Liu Ke'er hurriedly asked.
"Yes, that's the case. Liu Mu nodded and said, "It's a baby kiss with the Wu family in the east of the city! However, this was a long time ago, and she hadn't even been born at that time, and the people of the Wu family might not remember it, right? Later, when you were fifteen years old, you went to the Eight Desolate Mountains with your grandfather, and you have never had a chance to mention this matter. β
"The Wu family in the east of the city? The crowd muttered to themselves.
Someone's eyes lit up, and their minds came alive.
Compared with the Wu family, which has hundreds of years of history, the Liu family is actually just a nouveau riche who has just risen. It seems like a good thing to be able to get close to them.
Compared with marrying Li Qing, it seems that the benefits of marrying into the Chen family are much greater. Because after getting married, there will be a lot of cooperation between the two businesses in the future, which will bring huge direct benefits to the Liu family, which is incomparable to Li Qing.
Maybe Li Qing's personal strength can reach a very high level in the future and can escort the Liu family, but for most of the Liu family, there is no direct interest relationship.
If you can get the benefits in hand, you can really get the benefits.
It can only be said that they are all short-sighted. Without a backer, no matter how big the foundation is, it can't be kept. At the beginning, the Wu family chose to order a baby with the Liu family, but they were just thinking about settling with Elder Liu. But they all seem to ignore this now, because the comfortable life has been passed for too long, and there is no sense of crisis in their hearts.
Suddenly, everyone's attitude changed again, and the atmosphere became subtle again.
"It's hard to say, if they remember it, it's troublesome. "Father Liu is also not sure. On the one hand, it was Old Man Liu's order, and on the other hand, it was a promise with the Chen family, which made him a little dilemma.
"At the beginning, it was just a verbal agreement, and there was not even a marriage contract left, how can it be taken seriously?"
She doesn't want her daughter to sacrifice her happiness and marry into the Chen family, then she will definitely not be happy.
"Why shouldn't it be true? There were a lot of people present at the time, and if the contract was broken, wouldn't it be a joke to spread it?" Father Liu rebuked angrily.
"Don't you even listen to the old man?" Liu's mother was also very tough. She was originally a gentle woman, but for the happiness of her daughter, she did not give an inch.
"I didn't say I wouldn't listen to the old man. I just feel that this matter is a little embarrassing, isn't it time to say it and let everyone think of a way?" Father Liu's voice became a little quieter, "If they come to the door to propose marriage at that time, won't they offend the Wu family?"
"As long as we don't mention it, who will remember it? Let it pass silently, as if it didn't happen?" said Liu Mu.
"Well, then let's wait. If there is no reaction from the Wu family, then treat this matter as if it does not exist. Father Liu said, "If they remember this and come to propose, then they need to discuss it carefully." β
Liu Ke'er shook her head and said categorically: "There is nothing to discuss. Regardless of whether they remember this family affair or not, I will not marry into the Wu family, there is no possibility of this matter at all!"
"In this life, I will not marry Li Qing!"
