Farming and reading family

Gao E thought she was right. What did Tao Meiyu mean by looking at her like that?

"He wouldn't lie to his mother." Tao Meiyu said unhappily.

"You have received so many tutors, but you were not taught how to treat concubines at home?" Gao E wondered what the Tao family had taught her.

"Yes." Tao Meiyun nodded. "Treat concubines and illegitimate children well, and expand the family line."

Gao E had good reason to suspect that the Tao family's family education was written by a concubine.

"Have you ever offended your mother-in-law?" Gao E looked at Tao Meiyu suspiciously.

Why does she feel that her mother-in-law is like a soft knife, cutting her flesh whenever she finds an opportunity?

"How could I possibly offend her?" Tao Meiyu was very sure.

Sheng Er on the side hesitated: "Maybe..."

Gao E and Tao Meiyu looked at Sheng'er at the same time, and Sheng'er immediately shut up.

Gao E became interested: "Is it possible that she has offended her mother-in-law without realizing it?"

"I don't even know what that means to offend?" Tao Meiyu retorted, then turned to look at Sheng'er. "Just say what you want to say, as if I'm unreasonable."

"This is really not Madam's fault." Sheng'er said cautiously, "It's because of my cousin."

There are many sisters in the Tao family, and countless branches, so it is hard to think of who the cousin is.

"I heard from the servants of the He family that the old lady wanted my son-in-law to marry my cousin, but my son-in-law was chosen by my cousin. My cousin had no choice but to marry someone else in tears. However, her husband died within two years and she became a widow. The old lady was very distressed." Sheng'er said in a low voice.

Tao Meiyun frowned and thought for a moment: "Are you talking about the Jiang family?"

Sheng'er nodded.

Tao Meiyu was speechless. She had never thought about this at all.

"If Madam He really has this idea, she can just say that her son is already engaged. How can she let her son marry you and be unhappy about it?" Gao E comforted Tao Meiyu when she saw that she looked serious.

If that was the case, Tao Meiyu would have thought nothing of it. When she chose He Tangchun, she had no idea that He Tangchun's mother had such thoughts.

"That's because he's attracted by the Tao family's status and my wife's dowry." Sheng'er complained.

It has to be said that Tao Meiyu was really generous. Thanks to her dowry, the He family's life is now much better than before.

Tao Meiyu was silent for a long time. Thinking back on the past, everything had a traceable origin.

She had also seen Jiang, with a face full of resentment, as if everyone owed her something. Her mother-in-law said that Jiang lived a hard life, and she had given her a lot of jewelry.

Her mother-in-law was able to take advantage of others without making a sound, and even acted as if she had been wronged.

Gao E looked at Tao Meiyun in silence, not knowing what she was thinking: "Does Lord He know about this?"

Tao Meiyun laughed at herself, "He never asks about family matters. Not to mention Jiang's affairs, even his mother's affairs, he doesn't... care."

She wanted to say she didn't know, but men don't know because they don't care.

Because there was no loss to him, and there were even some benefits.

"But the He family isn't a wealthy family, is it that serious?" Tao Meiyu looked puzzled.

She felt that if she was really targeted by her mother-in-law because of this, it would be too unfair for her.

"The He family is not a wealthy family to you, but it is a very important existence to Old Madam He. After all, it is normal for her to want to bring honor to her family since she has an official there." Gao E analyzed.

"Petite." Tao Meiyu looked disdainful.

"Don't talk about being petty. For some families, if you choose to marry into their family, you will be just a daughter-in-law, not Miss Tao anymore." Gao E looked at Tao Meiyu.

They are somewhat similar in this respect, both of them marrying down.

However, the original owner had her own plans, and she did not have the family education like Tao Meiyu, so she was not controlled by her in-laws before she came here.

Tao Meiyu's opinion was much more pure; she just thought He Tangchun was a good person.

Tao Meiyun looked at Gao E and said, "You are also marrying down."

Gao E laughed at herself and said, "I'm far behind you, so I have a lot of room for improvement."

Tao Meiyu laughed when she heard this, and her laugh was somewhat self-deprecating.

The two of them chatted about these family matters, and Tao Meiyu's mood gradually improved.

"By the way, have you met Hua Jianxing?" Gao E suddenly asked.

"What's wrong?" Tao Meiyu wondered if Hua Jianxing had offended Gao E. This was the second time it was brought up.

"If... I mean if, what would happen if you beat him up?" Gao E looked at Tao Meiyu uncertainly.

"Beat him up?" Tao Meiyun frowned and looked at Gao E. "What did he do to make you want to beat him up?"

"I'm just asking you." Gao E felt unhappy if she didn't give him a beating.

Tao Meiyun felt that something must be wrong: "I beat him just to embarrass He Tangchun. You might as well put him in a sack and beat him up."

Gao E thought about it and agreed: "Then I'll put him in a sack and beat him up."

Tao Meiyu smiled and didn't talk about this matter anymore. Instead, they talked about how often she would return home if she followed He Tangchun to work in various places.

The result is that if He Tangchun doesn't go home, Tao Meiyu doesn't have to go home either, and she doesn't have to worry about seeing her mother-in-law every day.

The two of them had lunch and chatted for a while before Tao Meiyu took Yunshuang away.

Gao E watched Tao Meiyu leave. Caring about a man was the source of most of her troubles.

Thinking of this, Gao E planned to go find Jin Ruyi tomorrow. Chen Ke said that the matter of buying fur should be put on the agenda, and if it really doesn't work, she will have to go to Qinzhou City.

Hua Jianxing saw that Toad Valley was very quiet and finally realized that the gamblers had been controlled. His face turned gloomy.

"That group of peasants are quite patient. They were able to handle such an incident quietly." Hua Jianxing took this matter seriously.

Gui Heng hesitated: "How about having someone bring those people back with the documents?"

After all, those people have already sold themselves to them.

"Not yet." Hua Jianxing wanted to keep his distance from the enemy, at least not to give them direct evidence. "Let our people take action."

"Yes!" Gui Heng saluted.

Yu Zhao and his men had been hiding in the Toad Valley area for some time. They knew that the people in Baotou Village had caught the thief themselves, but since their boss didn't let them leave, there must still be a problem.

This period of time was not entirely without gain. He knew that Miss Yun was living well, and he also had a way to seek justice for the Yun family.

The landlord is kind, and the tenants who followed him have started to live a normal life. It is estimated that in two years they will have completely taken root here.

He was very glad that he found a new boss, which allowed him to save the orphans of his old boss.

"Brother, something's happening." Someone below hurried over. "A dozen men in black are approaching this way. They should be heading towards Toad Valley."

Yu Zhao quickly became alert: "Determine their number and don't let any of them go."

They have been here for a long time and are familiar with the terrain here. Even if the other side has more people, they are not afraid because of this advantage.

Yu Zhao and the others immediately approached quietly.

I've been here for so long, getting paid for nothing, and finally I have something to do.
