The whole village had heard about the unrest in the city, and upon learning the village chief was calling the head of each household to his place, they knew it was to discuss this matter.
This was a matter that concerned the fate of each household, so everyone brought along one or two extra people.
But it was always the eldest sons and grandsons; no one brought girls.
So when Qi Zheng appeared with his fourth son and little granddaughter, the three of them instantly became the focus of the gathering.
"Mr. Qi Sr., why did you bring such a little baby along?"
"Exactly, what can a baby do in such matters!"
The faces around showed varying degrees of disdain.
Qi Zheng didn't get angry; he chuckled and replied, "I just enjoy bringing my granddaughter along. If you're jealous, you can hurry back and fetch your babies; there's still time."
"Hey, old man, who brings a baby to discuss serious business?"
Someone retorted unhappily.
