The universal system is a bit cute

Chapter 290 Grievance
Zuo Muchen thought that Qiu Tiantian couldn't bear to attack Qiu Gaoyuan.

After all, those were her parents.

Therefore, he reassured Akita that even if he relied on Zuofu's influence, he only asked them to agree to their marriage, and it would not have any impact on their life safety or official career.

If Zuo Qingmo had spoken, how dare Qiu Gaoyuan not obey?
But he didn't expect that Akita Tian was not Qiu Gaoyuan's daughter at all, her soul came here from another world.

She has no feelings for Qiu Gaoyuan and his wife at all, only hatred.

Qiu Tiantian persuaded: "Mu Chen, I'm not worried about what you will do to them, what I'm worried about is that your way of dealing with them is too gentle."

"Ah?" Zuo Muchen opened his mouth wide.

Xiaoyin also patted her wings and honked twice.

Obviously, everyone was taken aback by her words.

Such a daughter is really tough, they are ashamed of themselves.

Is this really Qiu Gaoyuan's daughter?Why were they suddenly suspicious?
Akita knew why they reacted, and thought to himself, if you knew that the skin on my body was starved to death by them, I'm afraid you wouldn't be surprised.

Even, I think my methods are not ruthless enough.

Qiu Miaomiao wiped her eyes vigorously with the back of her hand and raised her head.

There were no tears in her eyes that had been accumulated before, but there was only perseverance and determination in her eyes.

"Sister, what are you going to do?"

From her tone, it seemed that she would support and even cooperate with whatever Akita did.

Akita was not relieved at all, but very sad.

It is of course a good thing that my sister can recognize the true face of her parents and is no longer blindly oppressed by them.However, who in the world is willing to confront their parents in this way?

Who doesn't want to be the darling of their parents and get their utmost love?
Akita already had some ideas in his mind, but they hadn't fully formed yet.

She thought for a while and said, "I haven't fully figured it out yet, I'll think about it again, and I'll tell you when I think it over. Tiantian, if you have any ideas, you should also tell me. Well, what's more, you Don’t tell Cui Zhi what Master Qiu and his wife said after he left.”

Qiu Miaomiao nodded vigorously: "Of course I won't tell him."

She didn't want Cui Zhi to know such an ugly side of her parents.

On the one hand, a girl in love definitely wants to show her best side in front of her sweetheart, but she doesn’t want him to know how bad her parents are and be looked down upon by him.That's so embarrassing.

On the other hand, she didn't want to break Cui Zhi's heart or embarrass him.

Now that she knows about these things, she will try her best to deal with them herself.

Even if her own abilities are limited, she still has her elder sister. She believes that her elder sister will definitely help her.

Akita Tian confessed: "I think, next, Cui Zhi will find a way to collect the dowry. Don't rush to help him, I want to see how much he can do for you."

This is the result of Akita Tian's previous considerations when he was on the road.

This incident can be regarded as a small test for Cui Zhi to see if he can pass this level.

For a man, it is easy to like a girl, and it is easy to do small things for her, but it is not easy for him to touch his own interests for her, and it is a major interest.

If the heart to love someone is not strong enough, it is impossible to do it.

Qiu Miaomiao was anxious, and said, "Sister, you can't test him like this. I understand Cui Zhi's personality, he is a good person, he will treat me well, he doesn't need to accept such a test."

Zuo Muchen also muttered in a low voice: "Yes, why bother to test. Cui Zhi has been with me for many years, and I know he is a very upright person."

After being complained by them, Akita Tian suddenly had the illusion that he was a vicious stepmother who wanted to beat the mandarin ducks.

She was a little shaken for a moment, wanting to follow their wishes and not to test Cui Zhi.

However, she soon strengthened her conviction and said: "No, I have to test him. Even if you believe in his character, I also believe in his character, but how he is does not mean whether he loves Miao Miao. I I just want to see what step he can do for Miao Miao. Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion and will stop in moderation."

"Okay. It's good to let this kid accept the test. He used to be rude to me."

Zuo Muchen had no objections, he remembered the thing that Cui Zhi bullied him before.

He has a good memory, and he is very vengeful.

Although he knew that Cui Zhi did that for his own good, but he was still a little displeased with his attitude.

Both of them said that, Qiu Miaomiao couldn't say anything more, so she just remained silent.

Akita Tian was afraid that she would report to Cui Zhi, so he specifically confessed: "Miao Miao, don't be so hard on yourself. Don't you feel relieved about what you do? I won't make Cui Zhi feel too sad."

Qiu Miaomiao could only say: "Okay, I will listen to my sister."

"That's right," Akita said with a smile, "Don't tell Cui Zhi what my sister said today, and don't tell him, I know what happened today."

These words really reminded Qiu Miaomiao that if she wanted to tell Cui Zhi about Akitatian's plan, there would be too many things involved.

For example, how did Akita know that Qiu Gaoyuan's lion opened his mouth?

Looking for an excuse?What kind of excuse would not make Cui Zhisheng suspicious?

Cui Zhi is very smart.

Also, if you tell a lie, you will use more lies to cover up the lie, which will get worse and worse.

The most important thing is that she believes in Cui Zhi and believes that he will be able to pass Akita's test.

"I won't tell him. For his sake, I'll pretend I don't know anything." Qiu Miaomiao said.

This time, her tone was very firm, not as hesitant as before.

Akita couldn't help laughing.

She knew that Qiu Miaomiao would do what she wanted.

The three of them had reached a point of discussion, so Qiu Miaomiao got up to leave and went back to her own room.

She's been here for too long, and if she stays any longer, it will be embarrassing and cause gossip.

What's more, she wanted to go back to her room, be alone, and calm down her thoughts.

When Qiu Miaomiao left, Zuo Muchen asked curiously: "Tiantian, how did you hear the conversation between Cui Zhi and your father, ah, Qiu Gaoyuan? Sitting in the teahouse, you shouldn't be able to hear the sound so far away Bar?"

Akita didn't want to tell him that he could control some small lives.

It's not that she doesn't believe Zuo Muchen, but she's worried that if he knows the truth, he will have fear or guard against her.

It's not that Zuo Muchen won't believe her after he finds out, but it's human instinct.

Do you feel uneasy when a person has the means to pry into your secrets that you cannot guard against?Do you feel that you are transparent in front of this person?
This is also a factor that leads to inner restlessness.

Akita Tian pretended to be mysterious and said: "Why not? This shows that my realm is high. My ear power is much stronger than yours. When you practice to my level, you will know."

She boasted first, and then said, as to whether Zuo Muchen could really have such a keen ear when he cultivated to her level, that's another matter.

"Really?" Zuo Muchen was dubious.

Little Silver also uttered a cry, as if he also had doubts.

Little Silver grew up in the Xueluo Holy Land, so he generally understands what kind of abilities people of which realm possess.

At the level of Akita, how can the ear power be so strong?It doesn't seem to have heard of it.

However, perhaps Akita Tian's extraordinary skills would give her this ability, which is hard to say.

Or, it is still possible for her to be equipped with some other assistance, such as special skills, or spells.

Akita Tian said calmly: "Of course. Otherwise, how do you think I heard those conversations?"

"Well," Zuo Muchen convinced himself to choose to believe her, "You can hear my father's conversation with Taoist Yun in the garden, and you can hear Qiu Gaoyuan's conversation with Cui Zhi, it's not surprising at all, it's something I rarely see."

He had long believed that Akita could hear other people's conversations from a relatively long distance, and this had been confirmed many times.

For example, Akita Tian once heard the conversation between Mo Yuan and Zuo Qingmo, and also heard the conversation between Zuo Qingmo and Taoist Yun.

He was quite curious before, wondering how Akita Tian did it, but he never asked her.

Sometimes, it is not convenient to ask because of the occasion.More often than not, it is forgotten to ask.

Now, hearing Akita insist that he has strong ears, he has nothing to say.

Even if Akita was perfunctory, he didn't really care.Everyone has their own secrets, their own privacy. As long as it does not harm friendship, this privacy and secrets should be respected.

"By the way, Mu Chen, how is your talk with your father going?" Akita asked, changing the subject.

She doesn't want to dwell on this issue.

With some sentimentality in Zuo Muchen's eyes, he replied: "We didn't talk much, we just had dinner together. He told a lot of interesting things about my childhood, and he also said that he hoped to see me cured."

Akita guessed the same.

She didn't mean to pry into the secrets between Zuo Muchen and Zuo Qingmo and his son, just to express her concern and change the subject by the way.

After the two chatted for a while, Zuo Muchen took Xiaoyin out to play.

After he practiced with Akita Tian every day, he didn't need to practice anymore.

Akita Tian sat in the room to recuperate, recover his energy, and then thought about how to deal with the matter of Qiu Miaomiao and Cui Zhi next.

At dusk, Akita Tian noticed that Qiu Miaomiao had walked out of the room.

She has very keen senses now, and she is paying special attention to Qiu Miaomiao, so she can detect her movement immediately.

Qiu Tiantian's heart moved, she sat in the room, but sent her "messenger" to follow Qiu Miaomiao.

Her state has improved a lot now, and the distance of the little bugs she can control can be farther, and there will be absolutely no problem within the range of Qixiaju.

Even if it is a little far away from Qixia, she can control it.

Not only small bugs, she can now manipulate larger animals.

But now there is no chance for her to practice it.

Speaking of which, she really wanted to give it a try.

Thinking this way, Akita Tian suddenly had an idea in his mind, and thought of a way to deal with Qiu Gaoyuan and his wife.

There was a smile on the corner of her lips, which was a little cold, but also a little happy.

As Akita expected, Qiu Miaomiao walked all the way to the edge of Qixia Residence, and stood in a secluded corner of the garden waiting.

You can tell who she is waiting for by looking at her eagerly looking forward to it.

Cui Zhi is Zuo Muchen's personal guard, with a special status, so he can enter the mansion.

The rules of this world are not as strict as those in ancient times on earth, and the protection between men and women is not as strict.

Qiu Miaomiao didn't wait long before seeing Cui Zhi walking over, walked up to her, and handed her a paper bag.

"This is the famous Xueluo Clan's Snowflake Cake, try it." He smiled at her.

Qiu Miaomiao couldn't laugh, she already knew Cui Zhi's grievances from Akita Tanakou.

The more he acted like he didn't care, and the more gentle he was to her, the sadder she would be.

Qiu Miaomiao took the snowflake cake, did not open it, lowered her eyes, and asked, "Cui Zhi, have you been to my house today? What did my parents say?"

She didn't dare to look up at Cui Zhi, afraid that he would see something when he saw her eyes.

Cui Zhi said with a smile: "I have been there. Well, it didn't go well. They said it was too sudden. They couldn't react all at once and couldn't make a decision, so they had to think about it. I think it shouldn't be a big problem. .”

His tone was very relaxed, as if the matter had already been won.

Qiu Miaomiao was even more sad, bit her lower lip tightly, and asked: "Cui Zhi, my father, is he sorry for you?"

"Miao Miao, why do you say that?" Cui Zhi's voice was a little nervous.

He probably thought that Qiu Miaomiao might have heard of something.

Of course Qiu Miaomiao would not tell him the truth, she lowered her head and said, "I guess. I know my father, he, he has always hoped to get more benefits from our daughters. So, I think, he is You won’t agree to marry me to you easily.”

"No." Cui Zhi still said in a relaxed tone, "Your father didn't agree to me for the time being, but he didn't make things difficult for me. After all, I am the captain of the third son's guard, so even if he looks at the third son's face, It won't do anything to me either. Miaomiao, I know that your parents are not very kind to you and your sisters, but don't worry, I will let them agree. It's a big deal, it's nothing to pay more dowry. You Don’t think too much, just take a look and see if this Xueluo Cake is delicious.”

Qiu Miaomiao didn't have the heart to eat, but after hearing what Cui Zhi said, she had no choice but to pretend to be happy, opened the paper bag, took out a snow-white snowflake cake inside, and ate it tastelessly.

"Is it delicious?" Cui Zhi asked.

Qiu Miaomiao barely controlled her expression, raised her head, smiled at him, and said, "It's delicious, it's delicious."

"That's great, I'll buy it for you often in the future. Miaomiao, after we get married, I'll take you to the streets, and you can go shopping wherever you want." Cui Zhi smiled openly.

Seeing Qiu Miaomiao smiling, he felt very happy.

Qiu Miaomiao felt even more sad, but she could only cooperate with him and pretend to be happy.

At this moment, she really wanted to tell him that her sister wanted to test his plan.It was with great difficulty that she held back her impulse and didn't say it out loud.

My sister has her own reasons for doing that.Although, she doesn't quite agree with it herself.

But my sister takes so much care of me, so it’s not a bad idea to follow her a little and make her feel at ease about her marriage.

Qiu Miaomiao and Cui Zhi put aside the topic of courtship, and talked about other unimportant things.

Seeing that the two of them were having a romantic relationship, Akita Tian was too embarrassed to eavesdrop, so he withdrew.

She thought to herself, it seemed that Cui Zhi didn't want Qiu Miaomiao to know the truth.Did he want to hide the truth, take all the responsibilities on his own, and figure out a way to deal with it?

He didn't want Qiu Miaomiao to be sad.

It's pretty good for this man to do that.

If she didn't love Qiu Miaomiao enough, or was someone who wasn't good enough, she must have vomited bitterness in front of Qiu Miaomiao and blamed her parents by now.

Or, it is to show the grievances she has suffered in front of Qiu Miaomiao, so that she can feel guilty and improve her status in the family in the future.

But Cui Zhi didn't mention a word, just said it lightly.

You know, what a proud person he is. The humiliation he suffered today is probably the first time in his life.

If he didn't love Qiu Miaomiao, how could he hold back this tone.

Akita sighed secretly, Cui Zhi is really good, he is Qiu Miaomiao's beloved.

His idea is also right. Judging from Qiu Gaoyuan's tone, from Qiu Gaoyuan's personality, what he wants is just more money.

Cui Zhi is confident that he can meet Qiu Gaoyuan's requirements.

Because, Qiu Miaomiao's eldest sister and second sister didn't get such a generous dowry, it was just a little more than other girls with the same status.

Cui Zhi has already decided that he will offer more dowry gifts, he doesn't care about those belongings, as long as he can marry Qiu Miaomiao, he will be satisfied.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that Qiu Gaoyuan's appetite was much bigger than he imagined, and he had to peel off several layers of skin.

Even if the skin is peeled off, Qiu Miaomiao may not agree to marry him.

If Cui Zhi knew about the subsequent conversation between Qiu Gaoyuan and Yu Bilan, I don't know how angry he would be.

Akita thought, if he knew the truth, would he do such a thing as snatching a marriage?
Well, maybe not, maybe, he will move out of the mountain of Zuofu to suppress Qiu Gaoyuan.

Akita thought that Qiu Gaoyuan was too stupid, knowing who Cui Zhi was backed by, he dared to mess around.

He opened his mouth like a lion, and it would be fine to knock more money, but he still wants to let Cui Zhi dove, doesn't he think his life is too long?

The next day, Akita went out of the mansion again, and came to the teahouse diagonally opposite Qiu's house.

She had already received news from Qiu Miaomiao that Cui Zhi would go to Qiu's house today.

As for Zuo Muchen, in order to protect Qiu Tiantian, he resolutely refused to go to the back mountain of Huanyueju to practice. If he went in, he would be locked up again, and he would have to rest in Qixiaju for two more days.

Taoist Yun had no choice but to let him go.

Akita sat in the teahouse, but his mind was on Qiu's house.

Not long after, I saw Cui Zhi again.

This time, Cui Zhi came alone, without any followers behind him.

After Cui Zhi was brought into Qiu's house, Qiu Gaoyuan came out from the house and stood in the dilapidated yard with a very unhappy expression on his face, and deliberately said with a straight face, "Cui Huwei, why did you come to my house again today?"

He saw that Cui Zhi had no entourage behind him, and he was only carrying a small box in his hand, as if he didn't bring much valuables, his face was even more ugly.

On the contrary, he welcomes Cui Zhi to Qiu's house, and it is best to bring a little "little gift" every time like yesterday.

For such a gift, if he collects a little every day, the accumulation will be very considerable.

What's more, the ones he brought each time were not enough, and there was no sign of dowry, so he could accept them with confidence and never return them to Cui Zhi.

Cui Zhi presented an exquisite but small wooden box in his hand, and said, "Master Qiu, if the things in this box are used as a betrothal gift, would Master Qiu be willing to part with you?"

Now even Akita Tian was extremely curious, wanting to know what was inside the box.

She originally thought that Cui Zhi came here today, just like yesterday, he came to discuss with Qiu Gaoyuan.

The two parties put forward conditions to see if they can reach an agreement.

If the negotiation is successful, a matchmaker will be invited to make the appointment.Therefore, he came alone today and didn't bring much with him.

She also didn't expect that Cui Zhi would directly offer the offer of employment, saying that what he had in hand was the dowry gift.

Is this box too small?Even if it's filled with gold, I'm afraid it's far from satisfying Qiu Gaoyuan.

Qiu Gaoyuan probably had the same idea as Akita Tian, ​​and snorted in his nostrils, and didn't even like to look at it, let alone pick it up.

He said with a straight face: "Guard Cui, I think I made it clear yesterday that I will not marry my daughter to you. Please go back."

Cui Zhi still held the box, handed it to Qiu Gaoyuan, and said, "Master Qiu, why don't you open it and have a look."

Qiu Gaoyuan glanced at the box, as if his heart moved, but then he said, "Guard Cui, do you still imagine that I used a stool to drive you out like yesterday?"

When Cui Zhi heard him mention what happened yesterday, his face flushed slightly.

What happened yesterday was too humiliating, he finally endured it for Qiu Miaomiao's sake.Unexpectedly, Qiu Gaoyuan dared to mention it today.

Who gave him the guts?
Cui Zhiqiang held back his anger and wanted to say something to smooth things over, but he couldn't.

Of course, he was also reluctant to leave like this, and it might be difficult for him to come in after leaving.

He clenched his hands into fists, tried to hold back his breath, and stared at Qiu Gaoyuan.

Akita was secretly amused and thought to himself, Qiu Gaoyuan, Qiu Gaoyuan, don't overact, or you may really lose your popularity.

There was indeed a trace of regret in Qiu Gaoyuan's eyes.

He wanted to deliberately make things difficult for Cui Zhi, but now it seems that he made things too difficult.

At this time, Yu Bilan came over, pulled Qiu Gaoyuan, and said, "Father, what are you talking about? Guard Cui is the third son's guard after all. He wants to marry Miao Miao out of good intentions. Don't treat me like this." he."

Her appearance saved the crisis in time.

Qiu Gaoyuan found the steps, snorted, and said, "Don't even look at it, how much you look down on our Qiu family and Miao Miao. With such a small box, you dare to call it a betrothal gift. It's really when we Qiu Is the family easy to bully?"

Yu Bilan persuaded: "You haven't seen it, how do you know what's inside? I think Cui Weiwei is not a person who doesn't know the importance, and won't use our family for entertainment."

Seeing Yu Bilan say this, Cui Zhi finally felt better, so he said, "Master Qiu, please take a look at what's inside before we talk."
