Farming and reading family

Tao Meiyu seems to be indifferent to what's happening outside, but she is with He Tangchun every day and has been immersed in the environment of the Tao family since she was a child. No clues can escape her eyes.

She didn't say anything about He Tangchun's decision, but if Gao E knew about it, she would remind him.

"What do you think?" Gao E looked at Tao Meiyu.

Tao Meiyun leaned back and slightly closed her eyes: "If I could be rich and noble, who would be willing to sweep the wind with long sleeves?"

"No matter how high-sounding the words of those scholars are, what they pursue are nothing but fame, fortune and power. Those who are in high positions and have great power talk about serving the country and the people, but they are only doing so to protect their own interests and then seek more benefits." Tao Meiyu sneered.

"So..." Gao E finally understood. "Should we discuss this matter from the perspective of interests?"

Tao Meiyun didn't expect Gao E to understand: "Actually, you don't have to worry too much."

Gao E didn't quite understand.

"Because of Yunshuang," Tao Meiyun reminded, "the Tao family is already involved in this matter. If Yunshuang can gain a foothold in the palace, then the Tao family must seek justice for the Yun family."

As for how deeply the Yun family was involved in this matter, Tao Meiyu was not very clear, but it was definitely involved.

Gao E also thought of this, but then she remembered Chen Ke's previous reminder: "What if, I mean what if, even with Yunshuang, the Tao family chose not to ask about this matter?"

Tao Meiyu was silent. She felt it was possible.

"Forget it." Gao E smiled. "I don't know anything."

"That's better." Tao Meiyun looked at Gao E. "As a woman of the Tao family, I'm not sure if the Tao family can protect me."

Gao E smiled helplessly: "If you ever find yourself in a desperate situation, remember that you still have a yard in Batou Village."

"Okay." Tao Meiyu's nose felt a little sore from laughing.

Gao E knew He Tangchun's attitude, and with Tao Meiyu's reminder, she had a better idea of ​​what to do.

The next day, Tao Meiyu brought two carts of things to Gao E, mostly daily necessities. These were all good things she had people send from Dancheng, attracting many people in the village to come and see them.

"Mrs. He is so generous." Jin Ruyi looked at those things and found them to be better than what she had used in the Jin family before.

"Things will go bad faster if they are not used." Gao E did not refuse. It would be troublesome to let Tao Meiyu take it away again.

Jin Ruyi agreed with this.

In the following time, everyone began to prepare for the New Year, thinking that it would be nice after the New Year when the weather got warmer.

Chen Ke has received several invitations during this period. During the New Year, scholars in He County will also organize some gatherings. They had never thought of Chen Ke before, but today they all sent invitations.

Chen Ke was very happy at first, but he got used to it after receiving so many.

Gao E didn't make clothes for everyone this year, she only made clothes for the children in the family.

When she was making clothes, Chen Tao had not come yet, so she did not make any for him. Now that the other children all had clothes, Gao E had no choice but to ask her sister-in-law to make one for Chen Tao as well.

"That's the son of the richest man Chen. Does he need my second brother and sister-in-law to make clothes for him?" Yang reminded.

"As long as the people are in our family, we can't favor one over the other." Gao E thought that there were many people in her family, so she had to hire a tailor if it was not possible.

Yang felt that it was really unnecessary, but did not say anything.

The last time she hit Hanyue, she was scolded by her husband, and he also told her that Hanyue had to continue learning from Master Jin, and she couldn't interfere in Hanyue's affairs in the future.

Yang felt aggrieved, but since her husband said so, she did not refute him.

She also told her to do whatever her second brother's wife asked her to do in the future and not to think too much about it. Yang agreed to all of her requests.

Recently, Chen Tao has become familiar with the children in the family and gets along well with them. But today, when Gao E came out of her eldest brother's house, she saw Chen Tao sitting alone on the doorstep in a daze.

"What's wrong?" Gao E stood at the bottom of the stairs and looked at Chen Tao.

"Can I go home for the New Year?" Chen Tao pleaded.

Gao E thought for a moment and said, "If your father comes to pick you up, you will go home for the New Year. If not, do you want to go home?"

Chen Tao lowered his head.

"I told your father before that I would let you spend the New Year at my house until you reform." Gao Eming said.

But Chen Tao was not angry.

His father may not agree, but even if he does, he can still come and pick him up during the New Year. At worst, he won't be able to follow Mr. Du in the future.

But his father agreed, and he still didn't come. This was his father's choice.

Gao E saw Chen Tao was silent and said: "It's so lively here, so many people are playing with you."

"Aunt Gao, please stop comforting me. Actually, the New Year celebrations at my house are quite boring." Chen Tao looked depressed.

Other families have a lively New Year celebration, but his family has many rules, even firecrackers cannot be set off too many times.

Gao E touched Chen Tao's head, not knowing how to comfort him. Perhaps he felt something, but he was too young to know what it meant.

Maybe even when he grows up, he still won't understand.

The festive atmosphere of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger, and every family prepares something more or less.

Gao E took the silver and asked Lei Laozhang to make New Year's money for the children. Lei Laozhang's face, which had been depressed for a long time, finally showed a smile.

When she came out of the third brother's house, she saw her eldest sister-in-law carrying a basket and walking home quickly, as if she was afraid of being seen by her.

Gao E was a little suspicious, and her sister-in-law had some small thoughts, but it shouldn't be like this.

But she didn't think much about it and went straight home. Not long after, Gao E heard a hurried knock on the door outside. He ran over and opened the door, and Peng Can rushed in.

"Sister, sister." Peng Can called anxiously.

"What's wrong?" Gao E hurried out from the main room.

"I..." Peng Can was a little embarrassed. "My mother-in-law caught a rooster and took it away. I didn't know."

All the livestock he raised belonged to Sister Gao. Even if they laid an egg, he would remember to ask Sister Gao what to do with it.

Gao E suddenly thought of her sister-in-law's actions just now: "Forget it, it's New Year's Day, so I'll just catch one."

"No..." Peng Can didn't know how to explain, "The rooster was carrying five or six female pheasants. When it was caught, the pheasants flew around in the pen."

Gao E suddenly realized: "Just replace it with a rooster bought in Luoyun Village."

"I, I, I..." Peng Can didn't know how to find his mother-in-law.

Gao E looked at Peng Can's embarrassed expression and asked, "You said you didn't know, then who ordered the arrest?"

Peng Can shut up immediately.

Gao E's face fell: "Let's go." She said and went out.

Peng Can hurriedly followed: "They are all from our family..."

Gao E glared at Peng Can, and Peng Can immediately shut up.

Gao E did not go to find Yang, but went straight to find Chen Yuning.

Chen Yuning was also busy preparing things for the New Year at home. She didn't know where Peng Can got the money, but she bought a lot of things and she was able to make the decisions. She understood why her mother wanted to be in charge so much.

She heard the sound of the door being pushed open and hurried out to see her second aunt coming in with a serious face: "What's wrong, second aunt?" She looked at Peng Can with a questioning look.

Second Aunt has always been gentle. I have never seen her get angry despite so many things happening at home.

Peng Can spread his hands helplessly, not knowing how to explain to Yu Ning.
