Chapter 171: He Has His Responsibilities

Tao Yao looked at her fingers and said with a smile, "These are the ones that your uncle brought back for me when I went to Linzhou last time."

"Set?" Chen Yingying was puzzled.

"It's a game on the street, where you get a penny and a ring, and if you hit something they put on the ground, they don't take any money and give it to us as a prize.

At that time, I bought 30 circles, and your uncle caught them all." Tao Yao explained, then walked to the shelf and picked up one of the porcelain vases.

These prizes, although not valuable, are very chic and flattering.

After she brought it back from Linzhou without landing, she specially asked people to clear the vacant seats and put these prizes on the table.

Chen Yingying walked over and said very curiously, "There is still this kind of fun?"

"Yes, I'll take you to play another day." Tao Yao put down the porcelain vase and said with a smile, "However, we may not be able to get it right."

When Chen Yingying heard this, she said expectantly, "Then let's go tomorrow."

Tao Yao thought that he had nothing to do, so he agreed, "Okay."

"Ma'am, hot water is ready." At this time, Dong'er came in to report.

Tao Yao nodded, "Got it." Turning her head to look at Chen Yingying, "You go wash first."

Chen Yingying thought of something and was a little embarrassed, "I didn't bring a change of clothes."

"It doesn't matter, I don't have any clothes here, you can take them and put them on first." Tao Yao said and took her to her closet.

opened the wardrobe, and the beautiful dresses inside made Chen Yingying a little envious.

Only a girl of the color of the little aunt can control such a bright dress.

Thinking about it, she couldn't help but look down at the plain dress on her body, and suddenly felt a little depressed.

Tao Yao noticed her strangeness and asked softly, "What's wrong? Is my dress too gaudy for you to like?"

"It's not." Chen Yingying hurriedly shook her head, thought of something, lowered her head, and said a little embarrassed, "Actually...... I love my aunt's dresses."

"Then you can pick whatever you like, and if you have a fancy one, I can give it to you." Tao Yao said generously.

"But, I can't handle this style of dress." Chen Yingying shook her head, but her eyes were on those dresses, looking and looking.

Hearing this, Tao Yao glanced at her.

Chen Yingying has a gentle temperament, dresses well, and is relatively plain.

But in fact, her facial features are very exquisite, and she will look good in a gorgeous dress.

Thinking about it, she encouraged, "Girls should be confident, if you like it, you can try boldly, you are so beautiful, how can you not control these dresses?"

With that, she took an unworn dress and stuffed it for her.

"You can try."

Chen Yingying took the dress and hesitated, "Can I do it?"

"Of course, you can change, I'll go out first." After Tao Yao finished speaking, he turned around and went to the outer room.

Chen Yingying touched the soft fabric and brightly colored dress in her hand, and finally bit her lip.

How about trying?

Tao Yao sat outside drinking water, and not long after, Chen Yingying came out in a newly changed dress.

Her eyes lit up and she praised, "Yingying, you are so beautiful in this dress."

Chen Yingying was a little shy when she heard this, but her eyes looked at her expectantly, "Really?"

"Of course it's true." Tao Yao got up, pushed her back to the inner room, and asked her to stand in front of the makeup mirror, "See for yourself."

Looking at her figure reflected in the mirror, Chen Yingying blushed.

"Isn't it pretty?" Tao Yao said with a smile.

Chen Yingying blushed and nodded, "Hmm."

"Yes, if you like it, you have to be bold and try." Tao Yao encouraged.

"Hmm." Chen Yingying touched the dress on her body and was very happy.

"We are about the same size, this dress, you can wear it properly, so I will give it to you." Tao Yao said.

"Thank you, aunt." Chen Yingying said gratefully.

"You're welcome." Tao Yao waved his hand.

After the two of them washed up in turn, they lay down on the bed.

Chen Yingying looked at Tao Yao sideways, her eyes shining.

Looking closely, the little aunt is even more beautiful.

No wonder people like her little uncle are finally willing to get married.

Such a beautiful, stunner-like woman, if she were a man, she would definitely like it.

Her cousin was really blind.

Thinking of Lu Qingbai, his eyes also darkened, "In a few days, the eldest cousin will get married."

Hearing this, Tao Yao turned his head and glanced at her, "So what?"

Chen Yingying was stunned, "You ......"

She wanted to ask if she really let go, but in the end she didn't say it.

Tao Yao could see at a glance what she was thinking, and said helplessly: "I thought I had made it clear to you that day, I only like your little uncle, and I don't like the people next to me."

Who Lu Qingbai wants to marry has nothing to do with me at all."

"I'm sorry." Chen Yingying said apologetically.

"It's okay, but next time, don't mention this unlucky person in front of me." Tao Yao said unceremoniously.

"Got it." Chen Yingying nodded obediently.

After thinking about it, Tao Yao persuaded, "Yingying, you are a good girl, don't worry about that kind of person, you deserve better."

Chen Yingying smiled bitterly, "Actually, my family is already arranging a blind date for me."

Tao Yao was relieved: "Your mother loves you so much, she will not force you if you don't like people, you don't have to force yourself, people you don't like can be brave to refuse."

"Hmm." Chen Yingying nodded.

"Okay, let's sleep, we women, we can't stay up late to be beautiful." Tao Yao yawned.

When Chen Yingying heard this, she was surprised: "You don't want to be a little uncle?"

Tao Yao said funny, "What do you want? He only left today, it's impossible that I thought about it, and he could come back to accompany me?

He has a responsibility that he has to shoulder, and he can only come back if the Khitan retreats from the enemy."

Chen Yingying nodded, "That's right. But I thought you wouldn't be able to sleep, but I didn't expect ......."

"He just left today, and I won't be able to sleep, so won't my days to come be difficult?" Tao Yao couldn't cry or laugh.

She admitted that after Lu Jiuyuan left, she was sad and reluctant, but she would not let herself carry this emotion all the time.

She was going to happily wait for him to come back.

Chen Yingying had nothing to say.

"Sleep." Tao Yao said.

"Hmm."

The next day, Tao Yao originally promised Chen Yingying to take her to the street to play rings, but early in the morning, someone came to the big house, saying that the wedding of the princess and Lu Qingbai was imminent, and there were not enough people in the big house, so Tao Yao and the people in the second and third rooms needed to help preside over it.

Tao Yao didn't want to go, so he said that he was not comfortable and did not go.

The old lady did not force her, but only instructed the Wang family and the Qin family to bring capable servants over to help.

Unexpectedly, not long after the Wang family and the Qin family went to the big house, the Lin family actually came to invite them in person.

"Ninth brother and sister, this is looking down on my big house? On such an important day, the nine brothers and sisters have to pass the buck?"
