Chapter 329 Compensation
The father and son looked at each other and immediately put on a happy expression, "Oh, congratulations, my Lord! Congratulations, my Lord! This daughter has been lost for so many years, and it's finally found. This is such a rare happy event!!!"
Marquis An Yong... I just said that those who can become national masters are all very thick-skinned.
"Oh, no need to congratulate me. I have to go to the palace later and tell the Empress Dowager about this. After all, she has been wanting a niece for many years. Originally, I hadn't figured out how to tell the child for fear of scaring him. Unexpectedly, the young master helped me with this. I have to thank him." Marquis An Yong did not shy away. He said something sarcastic while pretending to be grateful.
What he meant was that his daughter was of noble status, and even the Queen Mother was always thinking about her. Your son was such a fat guy, and he dared to humiliate his own daughter like this.
Lord Wu said hurriedly, "My Lord, please stop joking. My son is a loser. He is well-known in Kyoto for being a loser. Who would have thought that he would dare to offend the emperor? I will beat him to death and make amends for you."
As he said this, he rolled up his sleeves and was about to hit him again. The Marquis looked at Lord Wu with a fake smile and made him chase Wu Jiangan for two more laps before he spoke.
"Aiya, Master Wu, you are also a hot-tempered person. Didn't I tell you before that it was all a misunderstanding? I still want to thank you."
Lord Wu has seen all kinds of people, and he knows that today's matter cannot be resolved without sacrificing a bit of flesh, so he said, "Miss Qi, I wonder what kind of compensation you want from my stupid son?"
An Qiao was stunned for a few seconds before she realized that Miss Qi was herself.
Ah? To be honest, I am a little reluctant to give up this name that I have used for so many years.
"Why should my daughter need you to give her what she wants? Are Qi Ningliang and I useless? Even if she wants mountains of gold and silver, I can afford it." An Yonghou said bluntly.
An Qiao was just brainstorming, thinking about what kind of compensation she should ask for, and someone actually spoke up for her. Is this what it feels like to be protected?
"Yes, yes, the An Yong Marquis's family is large and powerful, and any compensation is unrealistic. Just tell me what compensation you want, as long as it is within my ability, I can give it to you."
What else can I do if I don’t give him to you? I can’t just give up on this useless son of mine.
"It's simple, An An, just tell me what you want." An Yonghou turned his head to An Qiao and said with a smile.
Anqiao...Anan, so corny.
Mr. Wu: Didn't you just say that you don't need to ask that young lady? Why are you asking her again?
But he really didn't dare to show it in front of others. After all, although his family was not weak, they were a noble family, and who wouldn't want a good reputation?
Now it's my son who is bullying someone else's daughter. What will happen if it gets out tomorrow?
If the Censorate knew about this, his memorial would be ranked higher than others.
"Your Majesty provoked me today, and my biological father happened to find me. Fortunately, I am usually popular, so many friends came to help me. If I had neither friends nor family, I don't know what your Majesty would do to me. After all, even if I had friends, servants, and escorts to protect me, your Majesty would still want to catch me and kiss me, destroying my innocence.
Your family is wealthy and powerful, so ordinary people naturally dare not provoke you. Even the women in the family of fifth-rank officials would not dare to hurt your son in the slightest and would only go home to complain.
Your son has been a tyrant for many years. I don't know how many good girls he has bullied and how many things he has done that he shouldn't have done.
My father just said that from now on I can have whatever I want. He can also give me mountains of gold and silver.
So I don't want those empty compensations. Just let your son tell everyone in the academy and the restaurant about what happened today and apologize to me."
An Qiao stood upstairs and spoke with confidence, every word was powerful, and she was not afraid of the pale and blue face of Lord Wu opposite her.
An Yonghou and Qi Ningliang couldn't help but silently give her a thumbs up. Good, this girl is so smart.
"My daughter said, you should do it. If you agree, you can leave today." This time, Marquis An Yong did not look at Lord Wu, but looked directly at Wu Jiangan.
Wu Jiangan was a fool, but not to that extent. He knew that this would damage the family's reputation, so he didn't dare to agree easily.
He looked around, sometimes at his father, sometimes at Marquis An Yong.
It was Lord Wu who spoke first, "My Lord, if you take a step back, you will have a broader horizon. Do you really want to push us to this point?"
After saying that, he couldn't help but look at An Qiao sinisterly. He didn't expect that such a young lady could be so vicious and use such cruel tricks.
It’s not that An Qiao didn’t see the look in his eyes, but she just didn’t care.
God, she wasn't that nervous in the first place. Now she has a father, a brother and friends, so what is there for her to be afraid of?
"Then tell me, how can we take a step back?" Marquis An Yong actually knew that this method might not work. After all, the aristocratic families have to save face. He just felt good for some unknown reason.
These aristocratic families and high-ranking officials all maintain an inexplicable balance. If they are pushed too far, it will not work. After all, even a rabbit will bite when it is cornered.
In this matter, he was in the right. Otherwise, how could Lord Wu, who usually was so arrogant and wanted to walk with his nose in the air, be so servile?
Lord Wu then spoke, "I know the Marquis's family is not short of money, but I have a very good farm outside the city, very close to Kyoto Prefecture, and can be reached in a quarter of an hour by horse. The annual yield is very high. If your daughter likes it, I will give it to her here, and all the horses, cattle, sheep, chickens, crops that have not yet matured, and several acres of medicinal herbs will all be given to her."
Lord Wu was a shrewd man all his life. After entering the restaurant, he observed and beat his son, and soon discovered An Qiao's preferences.
As expected, An Qiao's eyes lit up. That was an incredible good thing that could not be bought with money. It was all in the hands of these wealthy families.
An Yonghou's eyes lit up. He had some idea of what his daughter liked. Giving her such a big farm as compensation was not a bad idea.
But he must not let down his pride. "Oh, isn't it a waste for Lord Wu to give all his huge farm to our little girl? Didn't you tell me that the yield is very high? I'm afraid you won't be willing to give it up when the time comes."
Lord Wu was more disgusting than eating shit. He endured Marquis An Yong's sarcastic tone and took deep breaths again and again.
