Chapter 114: Tao Family Affairs
(Cat flutter Chinese)
"Tell me, what is the secret of this Tao family, it is not the answerer who is in charge, but the second lady?" Aunt Lin responded, "Yes." Watermark Ad Test: Watermark Ad Test"
"The Tao family was originally a merchant family, and later the second master of the Tao family was admitted to the Jinshide and changed the court, became the home of the eunuch, and took Shangguan's daughter as his wife. And the eldest young master of the Tao family is still engaged in business, marrying the daughter of a business partner. The old lady of the Tao family thought that the eldest daughter-in-law was inferior to the second daughter-in-law, so she ordered the entire Tao family to be handed over to the second lady Tao. Master Tao was filial and did not dare to disobey his mother's orders, so he let his brother and daughter-in-law be in charge. That's more than 20 years. Lan Xiaoyou asked, "What is the background of Mrs. Tao?" Aunt Lin said: "Mrs. Tao is also from a businessman. Lan Xiaoyou smiled: "Hehe, Mrs. Tao herself is from a businessman, and she still dislikes the eldest daughter-in-law's low background?" Isn't that also disgusting herself? Aunt Lin: "Maybe Mrs. Tao didn't realize it." ”
"That's a fool." Lan Xiaoyou said sarcastically,
"What else? So how can Mrs. Tao do it? Aunt Lin replied: "It is said that Second Mrs. Tao is very good at collecting money. ”
"Collecting money?" Lan Xiaoyou smiled,
"It's the boss of the Tao family who will make money, right? How can Mrs. Tao come forward to collect money, you want to say that Mrs. Tao emptied the Tao family's public treasury and returned it to her own private house. Aunt Lin smiled slightly and flattered: "Niang Niang is wise." Tao Lingxuan glared at Aunt Lin with hatred, this person was ruining her mother's reputation!
If it weren't for the palace, she would have fought with Aunt Lin. Aunt Lin said: "Not only Mrs. Tao, but even the maids around Mrs. Tao, all of them are richer than ordinary people. ”
"It's just an upside effect." Lan Xiaoyoudao,
"What else can you do?" Aunt Lin said: "Second Mrs. Tao is very good at the struggle in the back house, whether it is the noble concubine, cheap concubine or Tongfang of Second Master Tao, in less than two years, she will inevitably be found to have made mistakes and will be sold or killed with a cane, or she will die of illness and childbirth." Those who died in childbirth were all one corpse and two lives, and even the child did not survive. Over the years, all the children of the second master Tao were born to the second lady Tao, and there was no concubine. The slave maid felt that the methods used by Miss Jia today should have been learned from Second Mrs. Tao. ”
"You talk nonsense! What should you be guilty of slandering the wife of a court official? Tao Lingxuan shouted angrily. Aunt Lin snorted, raised three fingers and swore: "The sky is above, if I, Lin Baochai, have any lies and lies, the sky will thunder!" "Ancient people attached great importance to swearing, and Aunt Lin's oath, everyone believed that what she said was true.
Tao Lingxuan saw that everyone all showed their expressions of believing Aunt Lin, panicked and scared, so she had to keep shouting: "You talk nonsense, you talk nonsense, you talk nonsense, ...... nonsense."
"Shut her up." Lan Xiaoyou said lightly. Someone immediately stepped forward and blocked Tao Lingxuan's mouth with a handkerchief.
"Go on."
"Yes." Aunt Lin said,
This second lady Tao not only dealt with her husband's concubine, but also stretched out her hand to the big room. The eldest man of the Tao family is close to the age of Aifu (fifty years old), but he only has one son under his knees, and his son only has one daughter, all thanks to the second lady Tao. The second lady Tao wants all the family business of the Tao family to be inherited by her son, and she is bound to not let the Tao family give birth to an heir. ”
"Poor." At this time, everyone's thoughts were the same as Lan Xiaoyou, and they all felt that the second lady of the Tao family was too vicious, a fighting chicken in the house fight.
"Even if you have an old relationship with the Tao family, you know too much, right?" Lan Xiaoyou was puzzled. What Aunt Lin said is the Tao family's **, it is impossible to spread it to the outside world, otherwise how could the second master Tao be mixed in the officialdom?
So how did Aunt Lin know about these secrets? Aunt Lin said: "The slave's sister was hired as a concubine by Second Master Tao back then, but she died in less than three years. The reason given by Tao Fu was that her sister was sick and died, but her sister secretly left a last word for the slave, saying that she was killed by Mrs. Tao. In order to investigate the cause of her sister's death, the slave maid secretly bribed many people from the Tao Mansion. These messages were obtained from the mouths of those subordinates. Lan Xiaoyou didn't believe that Aunt Lin got the news from the Tao Mansion, she might have done something to the Tao Mansion, but this was none of Lan Xiaoyou's business, so she didn't ask any more and accepted Aunt Lin's explanation.
"This Second Mrs. Tao is really guilty, your sister is pitiful, and the Tao family's big house is also pitiful." Lan Xiaoyou said to Imperial Doctor Zhang,
"Imperial Doctor Zhang, you can go to the Tao family later, help everyone in the big house diagnose and treat, so that the big house can give birth to an heir." Imperial Physician Zhang listened to Aunt Lin's words on the side, and also sympathized with the Tao family's big house, and immediately said: "Yes, the minister must do his best to heal everyone in the Tao family's big house." Tao Lingxuan collapsed on the ground, it's over, it's all over.
Imperial Doctor Zhang went to the Tao family's door, and so many show girls heard Aunt Lin's words today, and went home to publicize it...... She's finished, her mother is finished, her grandmother is finished, the whole second room is finished.
I am afraid that my father will also be affected, and it is likely that the official position will not be guaranteed, and their family will be kicked out of the Tao family by the uncle...... She became a sinner in the second room.
Lan Xiaoyou glanced at Tao Lingxuan and ordered: "Tao Lingxuan harmed people with poison, the crime is unforgivable, reward her with a hundred boards, and throw her out of the palace." "A hundred big boards?
This is the rhythm of being beaten to death! However, no one sympathized with Tao Lingxuan, and some were relieved and gloated.
Lan Xiaoyou's gaze swept around the show girls, and the compelling gaze made the show girls feel chills in their hearts, and they all shrank their shoulders and hung their heads.
Lan Xiaoyou snorted: "The draft will be held in a few days, be honest with this palace, if anyone comes out with another moth, this palace will never spare it." No matter who is framed or framed, they will all be out of the palace. Do you understand? ”
"Understood." The show girls said in unison, and no one dared to think carefully. Lan Xiaoyou left Chuxiu Palace with people and did not say hello to Lan Xiaoxue.
Lan Xiaoxue looked at Lan Xiaoyou's departing figure with reverence in her eyes.
"The queen mother is so powerful, so imposing, if only I could be like her." Lan Xiaoyou heard Mi Hanyi muttering in his ear.
"There will be such a day." Lanxiao Snow Trail,
"When you're in charge, you'll have this kind of momentum." Mi Hanyi smiled slightly, her ambition would not let the second one know.
The Tao family outside the palace ushered in distinguished guests, and Master Tao and Second Master Tao went out to greet Imperial Doctor Zhang in person. However, the two of them were very puzzled, they didn't have a patient, what did this doctor do when he came to the door?
Second Master Tao asked suspiciously. Imperial Physician Zhang arched his hand in the direction of the palace and said, "It was the queen mother who sent the old man to give Master Tao a room for treatment." Master Tao was flattered: "Give us a room for treatment?" Imperial Physician Zhang nodded: "That's what Niangniang ordered." ”
"But I feel that my body is good, and I don't need to see a doctor." Master Tao was puzzled and asked,
"Lord Zhang, but what did my niece say to the queen in the palace?"
"This ......" Imperial Doctor Zhang's gentlemanly style, felt that it was not good to say what was coming out of the palace by himself, so he only said,
"The two masters should inquire about this matter by themselves, and the old man is only responsible for seeing the Tao family's big house. Master Tao, please stretch out your left hand. Master Tao stretched out his left hand and said, "Master Zhang, you are really not sick in the next place." ”
"It's not a disease." ZHANG Dadao,
"The queen mother heard that the Tao family's big house is difficult, let me come over to help you take a look, and ensure that the big house can give birth to an heir." Master Tao almost jumped up when he heard this, and said happily: "Really, really? ”
"Not bad."
"Then I will immediately call my son and daughter-in-law over to your old man's house for treatment."
"It's not too late, after I help the eldest master take the pulse, it's not too late to check their pulse." Although Imperial Physician Zhang said this, Master Tao immediately asked the servant to call his son and daughter-in-law out.
This can see the difference between Master Tao's hurt and Tao Er's official master, as an official master, Tao Er's master will never let his daughter-in-law run to the front yard to see a foreign man, and after giving Master Tao a pulse, Imperial Doctor Zhang gave his son and daughter-in-law a pulse, and prescribed three prescriptions to the three of them.
"Tao Gongzi and Tao Shaoniang will take this medicine first, and wait until a month later, and the old man will prescribe medicine to the two more. After taking the medicine, it should be a year later, Master Tao will be able to hold his grandson or granddaughter. Imperial Physician Zhang stroked his beard and said.
Master Tao's son and daughter-in-law were overjoyed and wrapped a big red envelope for Imperial Doctor Zhang. Mrs. Zhang pinched her fingers, fluttering softly, happy, this Tao master is really generous.
Master Tao took his son and daughter-in-law to personally send Imperial Doctor Zhang to the carriage, and then returned to Tao's mansion.
Master Tao took his son and daughter-in-law to Mrs. Tao's yard, and saw that his wife and his second brother and wife were already waiting in the old lady's yard.
Seeing Master Tao enter the door, Second Master Tao hurriedly asked, "Big brother, Imperial Doctor Zhang still didn't say why the queen sent her to treat you?" Master Tao shook his head: "No, Imperial Doctor Zhang refuses to say." Second Mrs. Tao secretly tore her handkerchief, and she was very unhappy: Damn, why is there so much to do with the queen?
actually sent a doctor to the boss's family, did the doctor diagnose that their family was poisoned and unable to have children?
Will it expose itself?
"Master, did Imperial Doctor Zhang say that you and Hua'er and his wife are in a situation?" Second Lady Tao asked with concern.
Master Tao had no scheming for his family, and replied: "Imperial Doctor Zhang didn't say anything, he only prescribed three prescriptions for me and Hua'er and his wife to eat, saying that they would let Hua'er and his wife change the prescription in a month, and in another year, I would be able to hold my grandson." ”
"Really?" Mrs. Tao and the old lady were very happy when they heard this. Although the old lady is partial to the second room because of the high status of the second son and second daughter-in-law, it doesn't mean that she doesn't care.
The issue of the heirs of the big house worries her a lot. Cat flutter Chinese
