Daoist, please stay

Tao Xi cheered Xie Qinglan along the way.

"Don't be afraid, I have everything!"

If it weren't for his palms sweating nervously, Xie Qinglan might have believed it.

He wasn't saying he wasn't nervous.

It's just useless to be nervous.

Anyway, whether the head of the Tao family agrees or disagrees, it can't change the fact that he wants Tao Xi to be together.

Treat it normally.

But...how come the Tao family is so biased...

After getting out of the taxi, we walked up the asphalt road like a park path for about 200 meters before seeing the single-family villa hidden among the green trees.

Xie Qinglan inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity—what's the difference between this and the Taoist temple built by their family on the mountainside?

Daoist Xie ignored the housing prices in the two places, and unilaterally equated Tao's mansion with his own Taoist temple, so he was less nervous now.

The housekeepers, Uncle Jing and Mama Lin, greeted them at the door.

Then there is the eldest brother and sister-in-law.

Eldest brother Tao Xuan, Xie Qinglan has already met.

Sister-in-law is the first time to see.

He was more easy-going and a little more energetic than he imagined.

He thought that the daughters-in-law taught by a wealthy family like the Tao family would all abide by etiquette and be as boring as a marionette.

Xie Qinglan had a very good impression of Qu Wanhua, and it was even more pleasing to her eyes to see her eldest brother.

Putting aside the fact that Xie Qinglan is Tao Xi's gay, the sister-in-law really likes Xie Qinglan.

There is a "shaft" in this young man.

Different from the flamboyant and unruly boys who are spoiled by the family nowadays, this boy named Qing Lan gives people a complex feeling of solidity, arrogance and a little politeness and alienation in his speech and demeanor.

Relying on her sixth sense as a woman, the sister-in-law is very keen to capture the information of "the best man".

In addition, this tall, long-legged, nine-headed body, with a thin waist and a slender buttocks, is carrying a handsome young man with a handsome dish, and Tao Ershao, who matches their baby face, is not at a disadvantage.

So he was brainwashed by the eldest brother for several days, and the sister-in-law who was still a little bit preconceived and dissatisfied with Xie Qinglan was quickly captured by Xiao Xie.

There is even a bit of mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at it, the more satisfied she is.

When Xie Qinglan handed over the meeting gift, the sister-in-law unwrapped the gift on the spot and looked at her husband with joy.

"Does it look good? Bring it to me!"

Tao Xuan suppressed the anger in his stomach, and patiently put a bracelet on his wife, boasting against his will.

"nice."

Qu Wanhua turned her wrist.She was wearing a dark green dark pattern embroidered cheongsam with large sleeves today, feeling that something was missing from the empty wrists.Looking at it this way, this matte gold bracelet complements today's clothes, and it complements her bright wrists more elegantly than snow.

"It's really suitable for you. Gold jewelry is gaudy, and if you are not careful, it will easily lower your aura and look tacky. However, sister-in-law, you have an elegant and refined temperament, more than noble, and you are not friendly enough. Gold jewelry just neutralizes this sense of alienation, and it is more It sets off your gentleness and demure, making you feel like a spring breeze."

As soon as these words came out, not only did he successfully please Qu Wanhua, but also shocked Tao Xi.

He didn't even know that Xie Qinglan had such a "glib" side!

The sister-in-law was settled in a few words, Xie Qinglan solemnly took out another gift, and handed it to Tao Xuan respectfully.

"Hastily prepared, please accept Tao Boss."

Tao Xuan snorted expressionlessly, took the gift, and put it aside.

Tao Xi was embarrassed for Xie Qinglan, and quickly changed the subject.

"Hey, where's Dad? Why haven't you seen him for so long?"

Tao Xuan was indifferent.

"Father is in the study. This is the time for him to practice calligraphy. Go up and meet him, he is waiting for you."

Just as Tao Xi was about to speak, Tao Xuan looked at him coldly, as if he predicted what he was going to say, with displeasure in his words.

"What? Do you want the elders to come downstairs to meet the younger ones? What are the rules?"

Tao Xi was rarely taught such a lesson by his elder brother, and his face was a little hot.

Embarrassed, she pulled Xie Qinglan up.

"We're going right now."

Xie Qinglan bowed slightly.

"I'm sorry, I'm not very polite, Mr. Tao, please don't mind."

Until Tao Xi dragged Xie Qinglan up the stairs as if fleeing, Tao Xuan still had a long face.

Qu Wanhua had never seen her husband like this before, it seemed like he was deliberately targeting Xie Qinglan.

Couldn't help but teach him a lesson.

"What's the matter with you? Anyway, it's the first time someone comes to the door, and you just give him face like this? Those who don't know think you despise him."

Tao Xuan was unhappy, and he didn't dare to get angry with his wife, so he frowned.

"Don't think so, I just hate it."

Qu Wanhua raised an eyebrow with a smile.

"What do you dislike about him? Do you dislike him for being tall, handsome, steady, generous, polite and well-educated? Or do you dislike him from a small place who has no power, power and money? Hey, I have been married to you for so many years. Why didn't I see it? You actually Are you a common man who dislikes the poor and loves the rich?"

Tao Xuan couldn't speak well when he was angry with his wife, so he said "nonsense!" in a fit of anger, turned around and went to his study.Qu Wanhua was overjoyed to see her husband being so angry that he was almost turned away, thinking joyfully, the family has been deserted for so many years, but it can be regarded as lively again.

Tao Xi pulled Xie Qinglan to stand in front of the study door, took three deep breaths, and then solemnly knocked on the door.

"Come in."

The old man's deep and energetic voice came from inside the door.

Tao Xi pushed open the door and smiled before saying anything.

"Dad, I'm back."

Tao Haishan was wearing a double-breasted pure cotton white shirt, black trousers, and his grizzled hair was combed back meticulously, but he looked a bit like his master.

Xie Qinglan relaxed again.

"Hello Mr. Tao, junior Xie Qinglan. Excuse me for visiting rashly."

Tao Haishan held the pen in one hand, just glanced at him, and snorted inexplicably.

"sit down."

Tao Xi got the order, and pulled Xie Qinglan to sit down obediently.

The old man practiced calligraphy by doing it in one go without being disturbed.

Unexpectedly, his father took a long breath today, practicing one after another.

Seeing that more than a dozen pieces of rice paper were wasted, it didn't stop.

Tao Xi was a little impatient, and wanted to speak several times, but was held back by Xie Qinglan.

After a while, the old man finally wrote a satisfactory picture, shaking the rice paper, and looked back at the two little ones.

"How about it?"

Tao Xi quickly flattered his father.

"Strong enough to penetrate the back of the paper, vigorous and powerful! Dad, your handwriting really gets better and better."

Tao Haishan snorted.

"What do you say?"

He asked Xie Qinglan.

Xie Qinglan didn't praise directly, but walked up to the old man and took a closer look.

"Although Leng Buding looks muscular and strong, he has a bit of a gentleman's demeanor. But when you look closely, it doesn't stand up to scrutiny. The hook is a little stagnant, and the pen force has weakened a lot. It feels like you are writing this picture. At that time, the mood was not stable.”

Tao Xi was sweating when he heard it.

What happened to Xie Qinglan?I told him long ago that the old man is a smooth donkey, so I want to pick it up and say it nicely!How could he just pick up the knife in the waist and eyes?

Sure enough, when Tao Haishan heard what he said, his eyebrows were about to stand up.

"What do you know? A little brat who hasn't even grown his hair yet is quite arrogant! Write me a copy if you have the ability!"

Xie Qinglan didn't feel annoyed or panicked, she lowered her head and smiled.

"Old Tao, you really think highly of me, how can my bad handwriting compare with yours."

Tao Xi hurriedly made a rescue.

"Yes, Dad, he just said it casually, don't take it seriously."

Tao Haishan nodded a little bit, and waved to his son.

"Don't talk, play by yourself for a while. I have to talk to this kid today. You said that my writing is not strong enough, so tell me, how can it be considered strong enough?"

Xie Qinglan was not ambiguous, and directly talked about the angle of brushwork, the strength of the muscles, the timing of closing the brush, etc., and the words were clear and logical, which made Mr. Tao even more unconvinced.

"Just talk but don't practice fake moves. Come on, try it, let me see if you write a word, I have to see what a strong word looks like."

Xie Qinglan no longer refused this time, raised her hand to twirl the pen, dipped it in thick ink, and raised her hand to form the word "Xi".

Flowing clouds and flowing water, wandering clouds and startling dragons.

After finishing the writing, take a half step back respectfully.

Tao Haishan was silent.

Grandma, although I don't want to admit it, but this brat's handwriting is really passable...

Comrade Xiao Xie is very skillful in flattering?
