//getmsg.h

class getmsg : public QWidget
{
    Q_OBJECT
public:
    getmsg(QWidget *parent = 0, int _maxX=0, int _maxY=0, qint8 _nMsg = 0);
private:

    QLineEdit *askCh;
    bool getmsg::eventFilter(QObject *object, QEvent* event);
};

//getmsg.cpp

getmsg::getmsg(QWidget *parent, int _maxX, int _maxY, qint8 _nMsg)
    : QWidget(parent),maxX(_maxX),maxY(_maxY),nMsg(_nMsg)
{
    resize(maxX,maxY);

    askCh = new QLineEdit(this);
    askCh->installEventFilter(this);

}
//********************************************************
bool getmsg::eventFilter(QObject *object, QEvent *event)
{
    if(object == askCh && event->type() == QEvent::MouseClick) {
        qDebug() << "You have clicked";
        return false; // lets the event continue to the edit
    }
    return false;
}

see declaration of 'QEvent'

Add

#include <QEvent>

@yczo
The QEvent Documentation says

QEvent::MouseButtonPress 2 Mouse press (QMouseEvent)
