Chapter 4499: You Must Think Highly of Yourself
"Yeah, what use can I be? Who takes me, the patriarch, seriously?"
After Dongdan finished speaking in a muffled voice, he sat on the ground and sorted the grass in the basket.
Lotus kicked the basket over and said angrily: "If others don't take you seriously, don't you take yourself seriously either?"
"Then what else can I do?"
"The boss priest is out of business. Young Master Long Bo is injured. Who do you care about?"
Dongdan said helplessly: "Lianhua, this matter is not as simple as you think. Even if Long Bo is injured, the affairs in the village are not my responsibility. After all..."
"What exactly?"
"The boss priest is still watching."
Dongdan slowly lowered his head.
Lianhua frowned and fell silent.
The high priest worked hard to pass the position to his son Luang Por. If Dong Dan dares to step in while his son is injured and is doing nothing, will it be regarded as an act of seizing power?
The high priest is powerful and Dongdan cannot afford to offend him.
Besides, the high priest was kind to him, and he didn't want to arouse the high priest's suspicion and suspicion.
Lotus was disappointed.
Although she has always claimed to hate Dongdan, her hatred is different from Sohui's hatred of Xiangqiu Lang.
Zhaohui hates and despises Xiangqiulang from the bottom of her heart, while Lianhua hates Dongdan with all her heart.
She hates seeing Dongdan's cowardice.
Dongdan didn't dare to look at her eyes and only whispered: "You know my situation. I know that I am sorry for my deceased father."
Lianhua slapped the sickle out of his hand and cursed angrily: "You are not sorry for your father, you are sorry for yourself! If others don't take you seriously, that is other people's business. You have to understand it in your own heart! As the leader of the clan, , do you want to watch the clan go into trouble?"
Dongdan smiled bitterly: "Of course I don't want to. But I..."
"Since you don't want to, just stand up!"
"I...I don't know what to do." Dongdan lowered his head, "Everyone wants me to drive away those nobles from Kyoto, but they brought thousands of soldiers and horses..."
"Drive it away?" Lianhua's voice suddenly raised, "You think so too?"
Dongdan was stunned: "Didn't you also come to persuade me to do this?"
"Why should I advise you to drive away Sister Qian'er and the others?" Lianhua was puzzled. "Sister Qian'er, Sister Yin'er and the prince, they are all the children of my fairy aunt! What did they do wrong? Those people are too disrespectful. Make sense!"
Dong Dan said: "The main reason is that they led people to search for people everywhere in the village..."
"Haha, is this wrong? If you were locked in the house and set on fire while you were sleeping at home, and you could still sit there and ignore it, then I, Lotus, would admire you!"
"Locked?" This was the first time Dong Dan heard about it.
"Otherwise, do you think that the prince will not be able to escape from the house?" Lianhua and Qian'er walked closer and knew more information. They sneered, "If it weren't for the martial arts of the younger sister, my master's son would have been killed by that bastard Xiangqiu Lang. Don’t do it! I won’t accept it until we find him out!”
"Is there any definite evidence that Xiangqiulang did it?"
"He is the most suspicious! Prince Lian has only been here a few days? Besides Zhaohui, who else in the village has such a big hatred against him and wants to kill him. Everyone knows what Xiangqiulang thinks about Zhaohui. . He must be jealous when he sees Zhaohui always getting close to Prince Lian!"
Dongdan frowned: "Isn't it possible? When the high priest asked Zhao Hui to marry Master Long Bo, Xiang Qiulang didn't say he wanted to harm Master Long Bo. Besides, this time it was just a catch-all. I don't know if it was true. He dares to kill people openly?"
