Chapter 1630: Chapter 1630: Revealed
Jiang Yushan understood and spoke about the matter.
Of course, the concubine is more thoughtful than the wife, and the second daughter is more sensible than the first.
"Xiao Ting. I have my eyes on Tan Qihao, this young man is very skilled, and his family seems to be very wealthy.
Someone reported to me that he spends a lot on the street every day and doesn’t even care.
Xiao Ting, I think if Tan Qihao wanted to compete for the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch, he could definitely succeed."
"Master, you’re Yanyang’s father, I listen to everything you say."
"That’s my daughter, how could I harm her! Rest assured, he is outstanding."
Hu Xiuting served Jiang Yushan with gentle care. This is also why Jiang Yushan favored her.
As a Martial Artist, naturally unconcerned with trivial matters, he liked gentle women. His wife was gentle before, but later became unpleasant. A concubine is better, never changing.
The next day when Qi Hao wanted to go out, he was stopped by the servant, saying the Alliance Leader requested his presence.
This time Jiang Yushan called Qi Hao alone, not in the main hall, but in a small serene garden out back.
"Young Tan, please have a seat."
Qi Hao sat down, "Alliance Leader, what is the reason for calling me?"
"Young Tan, I just wanted to have a chat with you."
Qi Hao nodded, "Alliance Leader, feel free to ask whatever you wish."
"I wonder if Young Tan has a family?" So stiff, clearly lacks social skills; bringing someone like this in could be beneficial.
Qi Hao shook his head, "No, but my parents would decide."
"Oh? I wonder how I could meet your parents?
You see, I greatly value you, Young Tan, and I wish to reach higher, my daughter wants to be betrothed to you.
By the decree of parents and word of matchmakers, I should meet your parents."
Qi Hao shook his head, "Sorry, Alliance Leader, I have no feelings for your daughter."
What a joke? Wanting to see my parents for a marriage proposal? That’s something I’d really reject.
Jiang Yushan didn’t expect the young man to outright refuse.
He really didn’t expect to be rejected, it’s truly humiliating.
His face was very unpleasant. "Young Tan, is this really wise?"
Qi Hao stood up, "Nothing’s wrong. I’m just being honest. Love isn’t something to be forced, apologies, Alliance Leader Jiang."
"A bit arrogant, aren’t you?"
Qi Hao was helpless, not following his wishes is arrogance?
"If the Alliance Leader thinks so, then so be it."
Might as well stop lodging at the Jiang Family, it truly feels troublesome.
Jiang Yushan said nothing further. He squinted his eyes, watching the departing figure. Thinking to himself, if you don’t appreciate the elevation, don’t blame me for being ruthless.
Even without the Mind Reading Technique, Qi Hao could tell Jiang Yushan had grown to hate him.
We’ll see what means he has; such a person is too underworldly, better to be cautious.
He went to find the servant, hastened his carriage away.
The inns in town were already overcrowded, so he directly drove the carriage out of town.
At this hour, leaving the town, he happened to meet the father and five sons who performed on the street yesterday also leaving the town.
"Hero, are you leaving?" The Martial Arts Congress is still ten days away from being held, why is this one driving away?
"No lodging in town, heading outside."
"If the hero doesn’t mind, you can stay with us. I’ve been here for over three months, rented a small yard."
Qi Hao nodded, "Thank you, are you heading back?"
"Yes, didn’t return last night."
"Hop on."
The four children quickly jumped onto the carriage. In the time it takes an incense stick to burn, they reached their place.
Just an ordinary thatched house, cheap. But in times like these, those wanting to rent would be quite many.
Qi Hao mainly wanted a place for the horse, perfect here.
"Hero, you stay here."
"No need, I’m not staying here, just leaving the carriage."
"Rest assured, hero, we’ll help feed it. I wonder where the hero is headed?"
"Going up the mountain to have a look."
The eldest boy looked excitedly at Qi Hao, "Hero, can you take us with you? We won’t be a burden."
Always wanted to go up the mountain, but Second Uncle disagrees.
Qi Hao looked at them, "Alright, if you want, come along."
The middle-aged man had no choice but to follow as well.
Last night, the five of them huddled under the eaves, yet the kids were energetic.
Qi Hao’s speed was something they could keep up with. Seems like practicing martial arts from a young age does have its advantages.
An hour later, they arrived at the foot of the mountain.
"Hero, there’s a rumor that this mountain has tigers and wolves, very fierce."
Qi Hao nodded, "If you’re worried, go back."
"Hero, I want to go with you."
The other three children also nodded.
"Alright, stay safe."
The middle-aged man had no choice but to follow up the mountain.
Qi Hao’s speed was fast, they were struggling to keep up.
"Dad, a rabbit."
The little girl’s shout scared the rabbit away.
"Peipei. Wait to catch rabbits and the like on the way back."
"Big brother, what are you thinking? Does the rabbit wait for you? It might not show up on the way back."
"And if we catch it now, are you going to carry it all the way?"
No one spoke, there’s no right answer anyway.
Qi Hao found the children’s conversation quite interesting.
Halfway up the mountain, there was a flat platform, Qi Hao caught two rabbits and threw them to the middle-aged man.
"Let’s rest here for a while; you guys prepare, I’ll go see if there’s anything else."
The four kids were thrilled, their lives weren’t good, even with martial strength, they weren’t allowed to risk, making it difficult to eat meat.
Qi Hao remembered and threw them a bamboo tube—it was a seasoning given by the Food Cultivator to their brothers, so it wouldn’t taste bad outside.
"Hero, we can’t open it."
Qi Hao forgot, the bamboo tube was indeed a low-level magic tool.
He took it, "You prepare first, I’ll be back soon."
Catching wild animals was very easy for Qi Hao; soon, he dragged over a Wild Boar.
The four kids all rushed over, their admiration for Qi Hao was like the endless river, continuous.
Firewood was ready. Rabbit cleaned, though not washed, it didn’t hinder eating.
The two boys wanted to use daggers to butcher the pig, Qi Hao gave them each one, gathered by his sister.
The boys cherished the daggers; being from the future, there’s no such technology now.
The boys worked while expressing admiration.
The middle-aged man also went to help, while Qi Hao sat aside roasting rabbits.
At noon like this, without shade, it would be torturous.
Soon, they brought some pork, the two girls joined in roasting.
