Farming and reading family

Chen Tao looked at his sister's back. Why did he feel that not only his father was weird, but his sister was weird too?

If I had known this earlier, I should have asked Master to come in with me. I would have felt much more at ease.

"Let's go." Chen Xiangyue saw that since his son had returned, it would be inappropriate to let him leave now.

"Where is my uncle and his family?" Chen Tao asked in a low voice.

"He said he was going out to take a look." Chen Xiangyue said without further ado, "You must take good care of the things I sent over."

Chen Tao nodded.

Chen Xiangyue looked at his son and sighed inwardly: "You must listen to your master carefully."

He believed in Gao E. Even a man like him could not compare to Gao E's demeanor. Perhaps letting his son become Gao E's disciple was his best choice.

Chen Ying arrived at the yard where her mother lived. Her mother was dressed up exquisitely and sat in the yard like a sculpture.

She seemed to have forgotten what happened yesterday. When she saw Chen Ying coming over, she waved to her lovingly. When she saw Chen Ying's face, her expression was a little dull.

"Mom." Chen Ying looked at her mother's somewhat dull face and felt that she was looking at someone else. "My brother is back today. Let's go to the front yard and have a good meal as a family."

"Okay..." Duan Xirou came back to her senses a little. "Your father is really something. He insists on letting your brother study. We are not from a scholarly family."

Chen Ying ignored her mother's complaints and helped her mother to the front yard.

The food box Chen Ying brought back contained spring rolls from her family's restaurant. She said she specially made them at the restaurant.

Chen Xiangyue nodded: "Ying'er is thoughtful." He picked up one, tasted it, and frowned.

"I asked the chef at Wanyilou, but it still doesn't suit Dad's taste?" Chen Ying said with some guilt.

"Just let them cook whatever you want to eat in the future." Chen Xiangyue endured the strange taste and finished a spring roll.

Chen Ying picked one up for Chen Tao and said, "Brother, try it."

Chen Tao couldn't refuse, so he picked it up and stuffed the whole thing into his mouth. He had already prepared himself for it to be very unpalatable, but he still underestimated how unpalatable it would be. How could it combine sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty flavors together?

Duan Xirou saw that her husband and son had eaten, so she picked one up for herself.

"Is it delicious?" Chen Ying looked at her mother.

"It's delicious." Duan Xirou smiled gently.

Chen Ying looked at her mother and knew that she had lost her sense of taste, or that she was living completely in her own world and nothing around her could affect her.

"As long as it tastes good." Chen Ying picked up another one for her mother, put down her chopsticks and looked at her father. "When Dad pinched me that day, did you feel like you were pinching Yan Lang?"

When Duan Xirou heard these two words, her chopsticks dropped onto the plate with a clatter and her eyes became confused.

Chen Xiangyue's hands began to tremble, but he still tried to slowly put down his chopsticks: "Who told you that?"

Seeing that Chen Xiangyue didn't deny it, Chen Ying sneered: "So you really killed my biological father?"

Although Chen Tao was young, he was shocked when he heard this. His father killed his sister's biological father?

What about him?

"Tao'er, go find your master." Chen Xiangyue looked at Chen Tao.

Chen Tao hesitated for a moment and then stood up.

"It's useless." Chen Ying looked at Chen Tao. "You killed my father, so I will kill your son and let you taste the pain of losing a loved one."

Duan Xirou, who was standing by, suddenly held her head in pain after hearing this.

"What did you do?" Chen Xiangyue looked at the spring rolls on the table in shock.

"Nothing." Chen Ying did not hide it. "From now on, all the Chen family's assets will be mine."

When she heard her mother calling her name last night, she completely believed what her uncle said, so she planned to avenge her biological father and then take over the Chen family's property, so that it would be thorough enough.

I was wondering what to do with Chen Tao since he was not at home, but he came back on his own.

"Tao'er, spit out what you've eaten." Chen Xiangyue said as he started to pick Chen Tao's mouth.

Over there, Duan Xirou fell to the ground with a headache. Chen Xiangyue hesitated for a moment and hurriedly went to help Duan Xirou.

"Tao'er, dig your throat and spit out what you've eaten." Chen Xiangyue reminded him, then stared at Chen Ying. "Even if you hate me, she is your biological mother."

"Since she loves my biological father so much, she should go and accompany him." Chen Ying felt an unprecedented pleasure in her heart.

In fact, she hated the Chen family, but as a merchant and gentry, they still had to set so many rules and teach her to be well-educated and well-mannered.

Deep down, she didn't like these things. She liked seeing people groveling, liked men fawning over her, liked fine clothes and jewelry...

But Chen Xiangyue told her that these were not advisable. It was ridiculous. They already had them at home, so why were they not advisable?

After all, Chen Tao was still young, so he gave up after scratching for a while and felt uncomfortable: "Dad, my stomach hurts."

Chen Xiangyue was stunned: "Someone, come quickly!"

In the end, no one came.

"Dad, don't shout anymore. I've sent everyone away." Chen Ying said with a smile.

Chen Xiangyue hadn't noticed it before, but now he thought about it and realized that there were indeed fewer servants in the house today.

"Dad..." Chen Tao was in so much pain that he could hardly sit still.

Gao E brought Lian Xin into the Chen family. The Chen family's guards tried to stop them, but Lian Xin threw them out one by one.

When Lianxin kicked open the main courtyard door, Gao E saw Chen Tao rolling on the ground in pain.

Chen Ying looked at Gao E and Lian Xin in surprise, and Chen Xiangyue felt like he had seen a savior.

"Mr. Gao, please save my son quickly, he has been poisoned." Chen Xiangyue said hurriedly.

Gao E rushed over, supported Chen Tao and began to dig his throat: "Lianxin, bring some water."

Lianxin looked around, not knowing where to get water.

"Go scoop it from the lotus pot." Gao E looked up and saw the lotus pot opposite.

Lianxin took a look and went over to move the lotus pot over.

Chen Ying, who was about to stop her, was stunned when she saw Lian Xin moving the lotus pot with her bare hands, and even forgot what she was going to do.

Chen Tao felt so uncomfortable from being scratched that he vomited, but he didn't vomit much.

Gao E took the bowl on the table and began to scoop water for Chen Tao.

Chen Tao naturally didn't want to drink the water in the lotus tank, but he couldn't bear it anymore as his master pinched his nose and forced him to drink several bowls of water. When his master let go, he started to vomit with a "wow" sound, and even vomited out a small fish.

Seeing that Chen Tao had nothing to vomit, Gao E started pinching his nose and forcing him to drink.

Chen Tao wanted to struggle, but Lianxin was too strong and he had no chance at all.

After three times of this, Chen Tao vomited out only water. He was in so much pain that he didn't care about the stomachache at all.

Chen Xiangyue and the others were so shocked by Gao E's actions that they forgot that they were also poisoned.

"How do you feel?" Gao E looked at Chen Tao.

"I feel like I'm going to die." Chen Tao's face was covered with tears and snot.

"Lianxin, take him and let's go." Gao E didn't look at anyone else.

Chen Tao is her apprentice, so she must take care of him. As for others... they can only wish for themselves.

"If you dare to take him away, I will kill his father." Chen Ying didn't know when a dagger appeared in her hand and was pressing against Chen Xiangyue's neck.

Gao E looked at Chen Ying, then at Chen Xiangyue, not understanding what was going on with this family.
