Qiu Siyong did not dare to hide anything, so he honestly told the story of the first time he met Zheng Haotian in the mountains and the accidental encounter today.
However, he kept an eye on it and did not tell anyone about seeing his sister crying.
It's not that he wants to deceive his father, but he knows that if he talks nonsense, his sister's revenge will never be much lighter than his father's punishment.
Qiu Tanggu listened silently and suddenly asked: "What do you think?"
Qiu Siyong was stunned. Before he understood what the old man meant, he heard a beautiful voice coming from behind.
"Dad, he probably met his brother at the door by chance, rather than waiting on purpose."
A graceful figure walked slowly in from the door, it was the eldest lady of the Qiu family.
Qiu Siyong wiped a cold sweat secretly, and was glad in her heart. Fortunately, she didn't speak unscrupulously. If her sister heard something she shouldn't have heard, her ears would be in trouble.
Qiu Tanggu snorted coldly, waved his hand and said, "Si Yong, go to the study now and copy yesterday's homework thirty times. You are not allowed to step out of the house for ten days."
Qiu Siyong responded dejectedly, but he also knew that such punishment was already quite mild.
Watching her brother leave, Miss Qiu sighed softly and turned around and said, "Dad, do you think Zheng Haotian is related to Wanbaoxuan?"
"Yes." Qiu Tanggu said without hesitation: "This man doesn't know much about the ways of the world, but he is quite knowledgeable. He knows all about the rare treasures in the world, especially those... treasures in the world.
Very detailed. Hey, if he hadn't received the teaching from Wanbaoxuan, how could he, a hunter in a small mountain village, know the wonderful things in the big world?"
If Qiu Siyong was still here at this time, then he would understand why his father looked at Zheng Haotian in a different light and spent precious time nagging him for so long.
Miss Qiu's eyes lit up slightly and she said, "Dad, do you think he is not from this place in the first place?"
"This boy's speech and behavior are definitely that of a local, but for some reason, he not only got the inheritance of Wanbaoxuan, but also has a white jade ring with a spiritual weapon level that is unique to Wanbaoxuan..." Qiu Tanggu frowned slowly.
His face wrinkled up and he said, "It's really strange."
Miss Qiu pondered for a moment and said: "Dad, according to the investigation of the disciples, Zheng Haotian fought against Yue Lu in the martial arts hall yesterday without losing, and he is also the disciple of the current master Zeng Jinke."
Qiu Tanggu smiled disdainfully and said: "Zeng Jinke is nothing, there is no need to worry. Humph, if it were not for the purpose of discovering talents and calming people's hearts, there would be no need for the existence of martial arts schools."
Miss Qiu smiled slightly and seemed not surprised by this. She asked slowly: "Then how do you plan to get along with him?"
Qiu Tanggu gave a bitter smile and said: "Although Wanbaoxuan's backstage is powerful, your mother's team is not inferior at all. It's just that your mother broke out of the house in the past... ugh." He shook his head and said, "As a father.
It's not appropriate to show up. You and Si Yong should be friends with him for the time being. Even if you can't be on good terms with him, you can't be on bad terms with him."
Miss Qiu nodded gently, a strange light flashed in her beautiful eyes, and she responded softly.
Qiu Tanggu stood up slowly, with a sneer on his face, as if he was talking to himself: "I still want to check whether what happened today was an accident."
Miss Qiu's eyes narrowed and she said in surprise: "Dad, you..."
Qiu Tanggu waved his hand and said, "You don't need to ask about this matter."
Miss Qiu lowered her gaze, nodded slightly, and after a while, finally turned back and left.

"Haotian, say it again."
In the Zeng Mansion, Lin Baohua's expression changed unpredictably, and he said in a deep voice.
Zheng Haotian nodded slightly and told everything that happened today from beginning to end without reservation. Of course, he was the one who mentioned the things Qiu Siyong said involving the eldest daughter of the Qiu family, as well as Li Maolin's murderous intention towards him.
It just passed by and was not even mentioned at all.
Lin Baohua, Yu Jiansheng and Yue Juan looked at each other. They didn't expect that in such a short period of half a day, such a big event would happen, and Zheng Haotian happened to meet them. I don't know if it was a blessing or a curse.
"Hey, I didn't expect Haotian to be in the limelight again." Yu Jiansheng smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't let him enter the city to test the hunters originally, just because I didn't want everyone to know about it. But God is not as good as man, and now he
Even if I want to keep a low profile, I can’t do it.”
Lin Baohua and Yue Yan nodded slowly.
Whether it was his performance in the martial arts examination or today's brave fight against the black bear and the rescue of the second son of the Qiu family, word would spread in a short period of time. Zheng Haotian's name would soon become loud in Pianxi City, and
This process will not change due to their will.
Lin Baohua shook his head and complained: "Yue Ming, why were you so serious when you fought against Haotian yesterday? It was just a formality."
Yue Yan spread his hands and said helplessly: "You can't blame me, it was the little guy who kept pestering him as soon as he came up." After a pause, his face looked strange and said: "It wasn't me who was testing him yesterday, but
He used me as a whetstone."
Zheng Haotian smiled awkwardly, but this was indeed the case yesterday.
After a year of hard training, Zheng Haotian's state of mind had reached its peak and was on the verge of a breakthrough. As soon as he met a high-level hunter, he had the urge to fight with him.
In addition, Yue Yan also wanted to find out his true background.
The two sides hit it off immediately, which is why there was such a big commotion.
Yu Jiansheng shook his head slightly and said abruptly: "What benefits has Mr. Qiu given you? Show it and see."
Zheng Haotian took the envelope out of his arms and tore it open. Inside were two pieces of tanned sheepskin.
He took out the sheepskin and spread it out. Even with his determination, he couldn't help but exclaimed.
Yu Weihua stepped forward curiously, took a look, and exclaimed: "What a great gesture, good guy."
One of these two sheepskins contained a note worth ten thousand taels of silver, and the other was even more exaggerated. It was actually the land deed of a villa in the city. What was even more amazing was that the name of the owner of the land deed was none other than Zheng Haotian.
Raising his head and looking at each other, Zheng Haotian felt that the two thin sheepskins in his hands felt as heavy as mountains.
Qiu Mansion's action was indeed incredibly generous.
During the time when they returned to Qiu Mansion from the Colosseum and finished their conversation, Qiu Tanggu actually made all these preparations.
Although ten thousand taels of silver notes are a large sum of money, for a behemoth like Qiu Mansion, it is not surprising that there is inventory at home. However, changing the name of the land deed is not a simple matter.
Financial resources and power are both indispensable.
Of course Zheng Haotian would not doubt the authenticity of the land deed in his hand, but it was precisely because of this that he was horrified.
"Haotian, Mr. Qiu really talked with you for an hour?" Lin Baohua asked again after a long silence.
Zheng Haotian nodded slightly. Although their conversation was a bit long, it did not involve any confidential content. It was just a casual chat.
Of course, Zheng Haotian listened more, spoke less, and gained a lot of knowledge, without feeling uncomfortable at all.
Lin Baohua frowned and said suspiciously: "Mr. Qiu is fair and generous. If you save his son, it's okay to give you a generous reward. But he has always been dignified, and he would value you so much. This is an anomaly."
Yeah. Hey, people are really incomparable."
Yu Jiansheng and Yue Yan both nodded slowly, with a hint of envy in their eyes.
They were all natives of Pianxi City, and naturally knew the Qiu Mansion very well. Therefore, they never doubted that Mr. Qiu had any plans for Zheng Haotian.
When they thought about it, there was only one explanation for why Mr. Qiu did this. He was grateful to Zheng Haotian for saving his son and fell in love with him at first sight.
Yu Jiansheng sighed and said: "Forget it, it's a blessing, not a curse. It's a curse that cannot be avoided. Since it has happened, let's just go with the flow."
Everyone was silent for a while, all nodding silently, and that seemed to be the only thing they could do now.
Zheng Haotian scratched his scalp, but he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
This uneasiness does not come from the Qiu Mansion, but from Li Maolin, who has been promoted to the Hunting King at a young age.
However, the power of the Li family in Pianxi City is no less than that of the Qiu family. Zheng Haotian knew that if he spoke out, it would not be of any help except causing unnecessary trouble to his elders and friends, so he
That's why I hid it.
It seems that I have to bear this worry alone.
Yu Weihua pushed Lin Ting beside him and winked.
Lin Ting opened his mouth to speak, but could not make up his mind.
Yu Weihua glared at him with hatred, and suddenly said: "Dad, Uncle Lin, Uncle Yue, Lin Ting wants to tell you something."
Everyone's eyes were turned to the two of them, wondering what they were doing.
Lin Ting gritted his teeth, took a step forward, turned over and prostrated himself in front of everyone, and said: "Three uncles, nephews, nephews..."
Lin Baohua frowned slightly and shouted: "If you have anything to say, just say it, mother-in-law and mother-in-law are doing nothing."
A strange smile appeared on the faces of Zheng Haotian and Yu Weihua, and they looked at Lin Ting as if they were looking for a good show.
Yu Jiansheng's eyes were as bright as lightning, and he snorted coldly and said: "What the hell are you two doing? Are you getting into trouble?"
Yu Weihua was afraid that his father would stare at him the most, so he subconsciously blurted out, "It's not us, it's Lin Ting who wants to get a wife..."
