Chapter 299: Suddenly
Tao Ruohui was sitting in the study at this time, although his eyes were staring at the book, he was thinking about his daughter in his heart, and he was waiting anxiously, when he suddenly saw Tao Wenjuan walking in with his hands piled up, he hurriedly stepped out of the house, stepped forward to take the small bamboo basket, and asked: "Why did you go for so long? But there is something wrong with the Qin family?"
Tao Wenjuan first put down the things in her hand on the Tao case, took out a cloth towel to wipe the sweat on her forehead, and said with a smile: "It's okay, don't worry, father, it's just a few chats with Mrs. Tai." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Although she sat in the car all the way, the weather was hot in the end, and her goose egg face was slightly red by the heat, and the more she looked like her eyebrows were watery, which was extremely beautiful and moving.
Seeing her daughter smiling and smiling, Tao Ruohui's expression did not relax. He moved the bamboo basket to the edge of the pottery table, and then sat down by himself, his brows slightly furrowed, and his face was full of worry.
Tao Wenjuan knew what was on his mind, because she didn't want to touch his sad place, so she only pretended not to know, and neatly packed up the books and stationery on the case.
"I heard that the Qin family ...... I also just came back from Shangjing. Tao Ruohui's voice came abruptly, and his voice was low, as if to indicate the speaker's low mood.
Tao Wenjuan sighed silently, the movements in her hands finally slowed down, and she looked back at Tao Ruohui.
Tao Ruohui was already frowning at this time, and the melancholy in his eyes was so thick that he could hardly dissolve.
His daughter was dragged by the scoundrel Hu Tian, this matter is not a good thing, the Qin family returned from Beijing, and they heard about it unexpectedly, and they looked down on Tao Wenjuan.
Every time I thought about this, Tao Ruohui's heart hurt like a knife.
The reputation of the little lady is always important, even if he has great ambitions, but he always regards this only daughter more than anything else, and at this time, when he thinks of the past, he can't help but regret it again.
If he hadn't gone his own way, if he hadn't rushed to Beijing in the first place, those things might not have happened.
Thinking like this, the gloom in his eyes turned gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "It's all my fault, I'm useless as a grandfather, but I'm so tired ......."
"Father, don't talk about it. Tao Wenjuan interrupted him softly, and on her beautiful face, a pair of eyes were bright and clear, "My father is not in good health, and as a daughter, I should relieve my father's worries." Moreover, my father is still ambitious, and I, a black-haired person, should not be short of breath and follow those ignorant women and children. ”
Juan's beautiful and moving voice is like a clear stream flowing in the mountains, and every word she says is loud and has great ambitions.
Tao Ruohui was slightly stunned by what she said, stopped for a moment, her eyes suddenly became sour, and she couldn't help but hide her face with her sleeves.
"My daughter is like this, grandpa is really ...... It's shameless. He said in a trembling voice, the dark blue sleeves trembling with his voice, and his gray hair, trembling in this voice, indescribably old and haggard.
Seeing her father blaming herself so much, Tao Wenjuan's heart was already sour, but she finally held back the tears that welled up in her eyes. She had two circles in her eyes, stepped forward lightly and poured a cup of tea for Tao Ruohan, and said softly: "Father drink a cup of tea, don't be so bitter, everything is fine for my daughter, and I have never taken those things to heart." Although the father is an elder, it is time to learn from his daughter. ”
The clear and light voice is like the most intimate warm current in the world, flowing through Tao Ruohui's heart.
After saying that, Tao Wenjuan sat on the chair next to her, changed a happy expression on her face, and said with a smile: "Father only cares about talking, but he doesn't know that I brought delicious fruits." Mrs. Tai gave her loquat pills again, and her old man was really generous and merciful to her daughter......"
She spoke as happily as she could, and opened the bamboo basket and wooden box for Tao Ruohui to see, looking like the joy of her little daughter's family.
With such persuasion from her beloved daughter, Tao Ruohui's mood gradually improved.
Tao Wenjuan persuaded in a timely manner: "My father said that 'those who are unhindered are free'." Now it's time for my father to put the past behind and look forward. Father, think about it, you have found a suitable genealogy, and the Qin family is also smart and upright, as long as you take care of it, you will become a great material, and your father should show his strength. And we also successfully found my uncle's family, and we can be regarded as having relatives. In the future, there will be festivals in the future, and we will also have relatives walking around, and the day will be much more lively. My father only thought about these happy things, and his mood would be much better. ”
Her voice was fluctuating, like a warm summer breeze blowing through her heart, and the remorse in Tao Ruohui's heart gradually faded. He was originally free and arrogant, if it weren't for the fact that the matter of going to Beijing affected his beloved daughter, he would not always drill this horn. At this moment, under the gentle words of his daughter, he finally let go of his thoughts, and the expression on his face recovered a lot.
Seeing that his mood was improving, Tao Wenjuan also put her mind at ease, so she got busy again, took out the fruit from the bamboo basket, washed it with water, and found two large pottery bowls, one for peaches and the other for grapes, all of which were placed on the case in the study.
Compared with the rigid offering bottles and bookware, these two bowls of fruit are bright and cute, smart and chic, which makes this study a little more wild.
After cleaning up the fruit, Tao Wenjuan kept her hands and feet, and took the small box of pills to the main room of the inner courtyard, and was waiting to find a place to settle it, when she suddenly heard someone knocking on the courtyard door in front of her, and a woman's voice came: "By asking, is this the Tao family?"
Tao Wenjuan's eyebrows frowned.
The last time I was knocked on the door by a woman, it was when I was in Beijing, and the mean face of Xu Yu in Huiyinfang was not something that could be forgotten if I wanted to.
She calmed down, put the wooden box on the shelf on the side, and went out to the front yard, but met Tao Ruohui who came out of the study.
"Go to answer the door for my father's sake, and my son will go to the inner room for a while. He said in a deep voice, and his face was rather cold.
Seeing her father's solemn expression, Tao Wenjuan did not insist, and said softly, "Father slow down", and slowly returned to the West Chamber, and covered the doors and windows.
Tao Ruohan straightened the corner scarf on her hair, turned the flower curtain slowly, and opened the courtyard door, but saw a woman standing outside the door, wearing a cocoon silk shirt, white skin, thin eyebrows and round face, looking quite kind.
When the woman saw someone come out to answer the door, she took a step back, bowed down and said, "I am presumptuous, sir, forgive me." After finishing the ceremony, he stood up straight, looked at Tao Ruohui and asked, "May I ask if Mr. is surnamed Tao?"
Tao Ruohui has often walked around the Qin Mansion recently, and when he saw this woman's behavior, he knew that this must be the servant of the Shi family, and it was not good to be too big, so he turned slightly sideways and gave half a salute, and said politely: "The servant is surnamed Tao." ”
