Chapter 244: Seeing Things and Thinking of People
The Merchant Lord Hui Yao also very much agreed with his daughter's meaning, and he nodded.
"You're right, there must be some kind of force behind Xiaoqiang, you have to have a good relationship with him in the future, if you like him, I am quite in favor of such a marriage."
The merchant owner of Huiyao unconsciously talked about his daughter's marriage again, which made Jin Can'er's cheeks, which had just calmed down, red slightly again, and said coquettishly.
"Daddy, he and I are just ordinary friends."
The Merchant Lord of Hui Yao smiled and said, "How can ordinary friends be jealous, do you think I don't know what happened to you at the banquet?" ”
Jin Can'er exclaimed, "Ah! Daddy, you know! ”
"Haha, someone told me a long time ago, I see, your relationship is by no means the same, let's say, you have developed a step there."
Jin Can'er was already ashamed of what her father said, and turned her head away with a sneer.
"Didn't I tell Daddy, I'm really an ordinary friend with him."
"Oh?" The merchant lord of Hui Yao doubted, "If it is an ordinary friend, then why do you quarrel with Rowling, and you also slapped Xiao Qiang, that slap was seen by all the guests present, and the matter of your jealousy because of Xiao Qiang has also spread among the nobles." ”
The words of the Huiyao merchant made Jin Can'er so ashamed that she almost got into the crack in the ground, and while blaming Xiaoqiang for not choosing what to say, she was also wondering about her original actions.
It is said that he has only met Xiaoqiang a handful of times, and he can't talk about liking it at all, but at that time, I don't know what happened, after meeting Xiaoqiang with a woman who is not weaker than himself, his brain seems to be out of control.
poured out his anger and jealousy for no reason, and when he eased down at this moment, he felt that this jealousy came very suddenly, and deep down he seemed to want to keep a distance from Xiaoqiang.
It was this sense of contradiction that made Jin Can'er almost feel that she was crazy, and at that time she was jealous in front of the public, and when she was asked by her father at this moment, Jin Can'er didn't know how to answer.
"Daddy, I didn't know why I did that at the time, and now I regret it a little bit."
The merchant lord of Huiyao naturally did not understand the entanglement in his daughter's heart, he only thought that this was a normal manifestation of the impulsiveness of men and women in love, so after listening to his daughter's own answer that he felt confused and regretted, he laughed.
"Young people are always impulsive, and they will regret it after being impulsive, it's not a big deal, this thing shows that you like that Xiaoqiang."
Misunderstood by her father, Jin Can'er was busy explaining, but the Huiyao merchant didn't give her this opportunity at all, got up and walked towards the door, and said as she walked.
"Young people have to seize the moment, if you let the person you like slip away, you may regret it for the rest of your life, and Daddy is not persuading you to like Xiaoqiang, but just telling you that some people will never be able to find it back after leaving."
Looking at the back of her father leaving, the blush on Jin Can'er's face was slightly reduced, but a sudden sadness was faintly hung in the beauty.
Outsiders may not understand the words of the Huiyao businessman, but as a daughter, he knows what his father is talking about, he is not only admonishing himself, but also regretting the original decision, and that decision completely and completely let his mother leave, although she is married and has a good life, but this hurdle has always been a pain in his father's heart, every time he passes by the house where his mother lives, his father does not dare to step forward, just hides in a distant place, longing for his mother's appearance.
At that time, my father did not have the domineering spirit of being a glorious businessman, and the sharp color that had never dissipated in his eyes gradually disappeared, only the regretful sadness lingered in his eyes, and his mouth would gently murmur his mother's name.
At that moment, Jin Can'er felt a deep remorse from her father, she wanted to help her father come forward and knock on the door, even if her mother didn't want to see him, even if the door was never opened, but as long as she did it, her father's heart might be able to feel a little less remorseful.
But as she grew older, she understood her father's heart, not that he was unwilling to knock on the door, nor that his mother was unwilling to see him, but because he still loved his mother deeply and did not want to hurt her again.
The mistake of the past made the mother leave the father, if this time the mistake is done again, the only one who will be hurt is the mother, and the father, who does not want to see all this, chooses to hide in the distance and silently look at the house, hiding from the gentle gaze in that inconspicuous corner.
Unconsciously, Jin Can'er's tears couldn't stop falling, and the sound of choking sounded in the empty room, she looked back at the plum blossom picture on the book wall, and the discomfort in her heart was even greater.
So she slowly came to the plum blossom picture, turned the plum blossom picture over gently, and then saw a portrait of a woman being spent behind the scroll, and the woman in the painting was really Jin Can'er's mother.
Looking at the woman who was as gentle as water in the painting, Jin Can'er's heart was sour, and her tears couldn't stop pouring out like a flood that burst the embankment, and the tears turned into a long tear stain across her cheeks, gathered at the pointed chin, and then fell to the ground drop by drop.
After last night's banquet, the elders of the Hidden Treasure Bay Chamber of Commerce were full of sadness.
At this moment, they were sitting around a small round table, although there were not many people, but all the people present represented the center of power of the dwarf race, and the branch in charge of each person was of great significance to the dwarf race.
But at this moment, the elders present did not have the laughter and noise of the past, nor did they have the joy of the wine pool before, only the heavy atmosphere made the air in the room quiet and terrifying.
There was a candle in the round table, and there was a gold candlestick under the candle, and as the last drop of wax on it slowly flowed into the candlestick, the glittering fire was slowly extinguished, and then a green smoke rose and permeated the small room, adding a melancholy atmosphere to the already quiet room.
The darkened room was still silent, and what was even more strange was that the minds of everyone present seemed to be silent in their own thoughts and could not be pulled out, and they did not care about the smell and light in the room when they were usually particular about luxury and enjoyment, until they were awakened by the sound of the door pushing open, and everyone came back to their senses in a trance.
Without exception, everyone present looked at the person who opened the door, and their eyes showed the same look of expectation, but as the person who came showed bitterness and shook his head slowly, the expectation that had just risen suddenly turned into despair.
"Didn't the eldest prince agree?" The old dwarf sitting at the head of the round table asked slowly.
The dwarf who walked into the room shook his head, then walked to the only empty place in front of the round table and sat down, put a space bracelet on the table, and sighed.
"Nope"
"Why? Is it that we are not paying enough price? The old dwarf still asked.
"Big brother, the eldest prince, he hasn't seen me in the first place."
