Looking back at this bustling street, it turns out that day and night are two different worlds, as if the human heart is boiling, wishing to burn everything, and half of it is as cold as the twelfth lunar month in winter. Even with the hottest water, it takes a long time to pour it. There was some reaction.

She had tasted the pain of bone erosion today.

I have to say, this tastes really bad.

…

The Tao family has installed a new door. The color of the new door is the same as the previous one. Probably because of the rush of work, there are no carvings on the door and it looks very low-grade. Tao Shi'an cares about face the most, even if the door is like this things, and don’t want to be compared with others.

It is said that he hired the best carpenter in Kyoto to make the previous door, which took a whole year. You know, the Tao family was not having an easy time at that time. The money of this door was as much as that of their family. Year's worth of expenses.

But even so, he didn't give in.

Fifth brother often said that Tao Shian was able to deceive his mother back then, probably because of his meticulousness.

"Miss."

This time the servants saw her and were respectful, as if they had seen some venomous snake and beast. Even when she passed by, the man did not dare to raise his head and stand up. When Tao Yaoyao saw this, he shook his head speechlessly.

"Where's Tao Shi'an?"

Ever since Tao Shi'an wanted to marry her to that playboy of the Wang family, Tao Yaoyao was unwilling to call him daddy. He may have been kind to the original owner, but not to her. In this case, don't blame her for not caring about the last This is a bit of family affection.

"The master is in the study." After hearing her displeasure, the servant did not dare to take the initiative to take her there, and stood aside and stopped following.

Tao Yaoyao didn't need them to follow her. It would be shameful for a child to confront her parents and let the servants see her. She wished they wouldn't come, so she entered the study alone.

Tao Shi'an has been angry until now because of her disobedience in the afternoon. Seeing her coming over on her own initiative, Tao Shi'an has no intention of relenting at all, "You still want to come back? I have never seen a woman like you.

It doesn’t matter that there are no rules at all, but you are not in a hurry all day long. Don’t you know that women should stay in the backyard and ignore them and not come out? Have you fed all the rules you have learned over the years into the dog's belly? "

Tao Shi'an didn't mention this, Tao Yaoyao might still want to have a few words with him. Hearing this, she walked forward with a sneer and said in a sinister manner, "Education, have you taught me?

I have lost my mother since I was a child, and I seem to be the eldest daughter of the Tao family. But don’t you know what kind of life I lived since I was a child? At that time, I had just enough food to eat, so how could I have a nanny to teach me?

Mr. Tao wants to settle a score with me. Have you ever thought about how to settle the score?

My mother left me a fortune of millions of dollars, but as a daughter, I didn't spend any of it, and my life was even worse than that of a servant. I finally got a good marriage, but it was ruined by your good daughter.

You don't blame her, but you blame me for causing trouble. Your idea is really strange.

Is it because you don't care that you blame me for whatever crime you have? If that's the case, then I don't care about you, let alone this family. What does your life and death have to do with me?

At this time, I would like to consider you, but ask yourself, are you worthy? "

Tao Yaoyao's words could be said to be very rude. Tao Shi'an was already angry, but after hearing these words, he got angry and said, "I've gone against you. How dare you, a junior, reprimand your biological father like this."

Tao Yaoyao, don't think that you can continue to be so arrogant and domineering just because you have the Chu family as your backer. The Chu family is on the verge of collapse now and you don't know when it will fall. By that time, I see how arrogant you can still be. "

He finally spoke his mind. Tao Yaoyao sat down, calmed down her anger, and looked over with a solemn expression, "You have long known that the Chu family is feared by the emperor, and you also know about the affairs of the Chu family and the second prince, right?"

"So what?" At this point, Tao Shi'an didn't bother to cover it up, but he was a little surprised as to how she knew about it.

"Other than that, what else do you know?" Tao Yaoyao narrowed his eyes.

Tao Shi'an frowned, "What, are you afraid? Are you worried that the Chu family will have no one to rely on after it falls?" Tao Shi'an finally saw that she was afraid and was very happy, "If you admit your mistake to me now, considering that you are also a descendant of the Tao family, I will Maybe you can get around your disobedience just now, but in this marriage to the Wang family, you must marry."

"There is one thing I am particularly curious about." Tao Yaoyao stood up with a smile, "You have always been unprofitable, but the Wang family is a person who retreats behind the scenes. It does not benefit you or the Tao family in the slightest. Why do you have to Let me marry somewhere.

In this Kyoto city, whoever you choose can be your helper..."

"Hmph, with your temper, no matter who I marry you to, that person may become my enemy. I'm not stupid, so why should I make enemies for myself.

Just be content. If I hadn't taken care of the love between father and daughter, you might have married a street pawn now. Although there is something wrong with this son of the Wang family.

But you are not a light-saving lamp. If you are worried that people will make you angry when you marry, you don't have to. The Wang family is a scholarly family, and even if their character is average, they will definitely not be able to fight with you.

As for the quarrel... with your fiery temper, you definitely won't let me go along with it. "

Tao Shi'an felt bitter when he talked about this. He couldn't understand why he and his wife both had a gentle temperament and gave birth to such a firecracker, so easily.

He remembered that his daughter was not like this before. When did she start to become so... strange?

"Why am I like this? Shouldn't I ask you, Mr. Tao? If it weren't for your partiality and indulgence, how could I be bullied and have to resist on my own?

Rabbits know how to bite when they are anxious, not to mention that I have never been a rabbit. "

Tao Yaoyao looked at him again, "Let's get down to business, what is your relationship with the second prince?"

"I... this is a court matter, and it is not for you, a woman, to inquire. Well, if you have nothing to do, go back and rest. The Wang family will come over early tomorrow morning to propose marriage. The young master of the Wang family will also come over by then. You behave better and don't let people reject you at home."

"I won't marry." Tao Yaoyao refused directly, "Only I can make the decision about my marriage, not even you."

"You're farting. Since ancient times, marriage matters have been dictated by the parents and the matchmaker. I am your father..."

"You are only my father in name only. You have never cared about me. Now you know how to act like an elder. You would have done something earlier. If you had only given birth to me, you could have cared about my life-long affairs.

Those are your rules, they don't work here. I won't admit it either. "

Tao Yaoyao brought the topic back again, "I know what you want to do even if you don't tell me. You have always done whatever it takes to gain power. On the surface, our family is related to the third prince, but you are afraid that in the end, everything will be in vain, so You don’t know anything about the second prince secretly. Is that right?”

Tao Yaoyao also just figured out that Tao Shian also exposed the flaw in the imperial study room, but her mind was not on it at that time, so she didn't notice anything unusual.

Thinking about it now, the people around her are all acting masters. They all act one way on the surface but another behind the scenes, and they talk about their difficulties and high-sounding things. It's really ridiculous.

"But there is one thing I don't understand. The second prince asked you to cooperate. What can you do to help the second prince?" Tao Yaoyao continued, "I thought about it all the way when I came back, and finally I figured it out. Your biggest bargaining chip It’s me and the Chu family.

Although the second prince has contacts with the Chu family, the Chu family is far away from the border and they have not been able to see them for several years. The more powerful such a collaborator is, the more unsettling it is.

The only weakness of the Chu family is me, so the second prince thought of this method.

As for you, you have always wanted to be reused by the emperor all these years, but because of my mother, His Majesty has never thought of reusing you. This is also the reason why you don't like me.

You vented all your dissatisfaction with my mother and the Chu family on me. He even vented the emperor's dissatisfaction with you on me. Tao Shi'an, you are just as lucky as you. You always rely on others and don't think about your own shortcomings.

You said that you had the ability to make my mother follow you wholeheartedly. Why do you think the emperor cannot value you because of your talent? "

This incident was the pain of Tao Shian's life. When he was young, he also thought about doing things for the people, being a good official, and bringing the Hou Mansion back to its former glory.

But after the incident between the madam and the emperor came out, he felt that he had become a joke, so that he was unwilling to go out and did not dare to go out. Later, a few years later, when he came out, the appearance of the court had changed.

Later... the emperor always cared about him because of his wife's death. No matter what he did in the court, the emperor would always find fault with him, once or twice. As time went by, he became disgusted.

But he couldn't swallow this breath and couldn't find a place to vent, so he used the daughter in front of him as a punching bag.

She was right, he had disliked her over the years, and a large part of the reason was because of this.

But he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong.

Because the misfortune of his life began with him.

"If I were the emperor, I would do the same to you, because... you really are not worthy of my mother or his forgotten person." After Tao Yaoyao saw his expression clearly, her eyes were full of disappointment.

"Well, no matter how much I talk, you won't listen. In that case, why should I waste my time here." Before she left, she reminded him again, "You'd better back off from the Wang family's marriage, otherwise, today's family scandal will happen." , will continue to be performed tomorrow.”

Tao Yaoyao was talking about how she had someone break down the Tao family's door today.

Tao Shi'an had been so focused on other things that he had forgotten about it. Now that he was reminded of it, he felt angry in his heart.

"You unfilial daughter, stop here. When did I let you go? You prodigal, that's a thousand-tael door. Just smash it if you say it will."

You are so brave. "
