Chapter 1116: Who Made You Angry? 4
Liang Qiaoyun acted quickly and delivered Xia Miaomiao’s birthdate characters to the Han family. When Han Chengbei heard that the family wanted to choose a child bride for his third brother, and that the candidate was the Xia’s family’s illegitimate daughter, he was furious. However, Han Dongcao himself was sitting calmly and composedly.
"I’m a sickly man, do I really hope to find some noble lady? Just match my birthdate characters with Xia Miaomiao’s. Although she’s young, she’s both brave and resourceful. She managed to escape unharmed from that place and even helped the police destroy a criminal den. Marrying her to be my child bride would actually be wronging her."
"No way!" The Han matriarch also disagreed, "At worst, we can choose another. With our Han family’s wealth, if we want to choose a daughter-in-law, the entire capital would line up for miles. How can we bring an illegitimate daughter from the Xia’s family into our home?"
But the Han patriarch suddenly beamed with joy, "Xia Miaomiao’s birthdate characters are a perfect match with our Cao’er. They will make him healthy, it’s a fortunate match, good, good..."
Everyone in the family was taken aback by this statement.
The Han matriarch glared at her husband, "Perfect match? What perfect match? She’s just a sixteen-year-old girl. We don’t even know if she’ll grow up properly, and she’s an illegitimate daughter. People will laugh at us if we mention it. How can we have such a girl?"
Han Dongcao set the matter, "Let’s go with her. I find her pleasing to the eye. I’ve also investigated; the child is not only brave and resourceful, but also a good student. She ranked first in the entire school in the last exam. I’ll keep her by my side and raise her as a daughter. If she knows gratitude in the future, she can accompany me through the second half of my life. If she doesn’t grow up well, I’ll take her as a daughter to enliven life. I like the healthy and lively spirit of young girls; it’s like a fresh start."
Han Dongcao finished speaking, coughed twice, and returned to his room.
Han Chengbei thought that his third brother must have gone mad, laying hands on a sixteen-year-old girl!
Han Chengbei also went back to his room, crossed one leg over the other, and texted Ye Xingguang on WeChat, mentioning this incident.
