The old lady and Tao Yao talked about the dishes and scenery of Tianxiang Building, and Tao Yao promised: "The old lady has also been to Tianxiang Building?" ”

The old lady said with a smile: "That's where you young people go, I haven't been there, but when I go to the West Lake to swim in the lake, I can always see it by boat, and pass by. ”

Tao Yao listened to the old lady's gossip and meaningful words, but she only responded: "The dishes of Tianxianglou are very beautiful, if the old lady is idle and often comes and goes, I think the uncle and grandmother of Tianxianglou must also be very happy." ”

The two seem to be familiar with each other, and they seem to be talking like a dumb riddle, and they have used lunch, the old lady put down the chopsticks early, Tao Yao was originally a person who always can't eat enough when she goes out as a guest, and she eats two bites by herself, and the host puts the chopsticks, she never refuses to eat more, so she only says that she is full.

The old lady invited Tao Yao to take a walk in the backyard to eliminate food.

Tao Yao should help the old lady, but the old lady led her all the way, introduced her to the Chu family's garden, and asked her where Chu Ping led her last time, and went shopping all the things that Chu Ping didn't take her to, and the two stopped at Liuyu Pavilion.

Forsythia didn't follow, but set up a table, chair and fruit plate in the Liuyu Pavilion early for the two of them to rest.

Seeing Tao Yao helping the old lady to this side, Forsythia stepped forward to help the old lady crooked on the chaise longue she loved every day, so she gave Tao Yao a honey soup and retreated far away.

It was a spacious, empty and sparsely populated place, and if anyone were to come, they could be seen from afar, and it was better to talk about secret things than in a room with ears on the wall.

When Tao Yao saw this, the old lady finally stopped playing dumb riddles with her, and only said: "I heard Brother Ping say a few days ago that the Qian family got into some trouble. He made a mud. ”

When Tao Yao heard this, she just lowered her head and drank the honey soup silently, and did not answer.

I only heard the old lady continue: "These children, who don't know the importance of the matter, have made a mess of it, and in the end, it is not his grandfather who has to come forward and invite them to have a good meal." That's the end of it.

However, during the meal, the people over there asked that there was a girl surnamed Tao in the Qian family that day......

Tao Yao's hand drinking honey soup was slightly stagnant, and her heart was raised, she never thought that the people of the Six Gates would pay attention to herself that day.

I've tried not to get out, don't speak, don't cause trouble, didn't I think those people would be so careful that they even went to investigate their own identity and provenance?

The old lady seemed to be sleeping crookedly, staring at the panic that flashed on Tao Yao's face, and then said slowly: "The people over there seem to be very careful, but his grandfather gave a promise, saying that it is not someone else, but the bride of our brother Ping'er who has not passed the door." ”

The honey soup in Tao Yao's hand shook, and the spoon touched the porcelain cup with a slight sound, Tao Yao finally put down the honey soup in her hand and looked up at the old lady.

The old lady only said slowly: "Brother Ping'er's mother has come back in the past two days, and I originally planned to discuss the matter of proposing marriage directly with Mrs. Shao and the grandmother of the Chen family, but after thinking about it again and again, since you are in Hangzhou, I thought that I would better come and talk to you first."

I'm afraid that the Chu family will have some meanings, and Mrs. Shao will not understand you for a while, and it will not be good to have a misunderstanding in vain. ”

When Tao Yao heard this, her heart suddenly jumped, and it took a long time to stabilize her mind and say: "The old lady loves her, Tao Yao is only afraid that she can't afford it." ”

When the old lady heard this, the expression on her face did not fluctuate, but she continued: "How do you look like this? At the beginning, his grandfather said this at the banquet, but the people over there were very happy when they heard it, and gave them a hundred gold as a congratulatory gift, so that when the wedding event was held, they should not be left without a glass of wedding wine. ”

There was a faint meaning of forcing the palace in these words, but Tao Yao refused to back down, and only got up and saluted the old lady: "The old lady is wrong to love, but I always remember what my father taught me since I was a child, 'A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall'." ”

When the old lady heard this, she only slowly opened her eyes, stared at Tao Yao and said, "Girl, you used what you said wrongly, now it's not that you can't stand under the dangerous wall, but that half of your body has fallen into quicksand."

If the Chu family lets go at this time, then you and your family are likely to fall into it and never see the light of day again. ”

Tao Yao's brows furrowed, and her lips pursed, she never thought that she would get into such a big trouble if she just went to the Qian family by chance that day?

Unexpectedly, so much so that he has actually fallen into it.

After a long time, Tao Yao accepted this fact, Tao Yao slowly raised her eyes, looked at the old lady and said: "Old lady, but there are some things I have to figure out first, if the Chu family doesn't make a move, I will fall into it, then if I marry into the Chu family, won't I take the whole family into it?"

If the East Window incident happens, the Chu family may retreat? What kind of relationship does the Chu family have with those people? If they destroy the Nine Clans, can the Chu family be within the Nine Clans? ”

The old lady looked at Tao Yao, and the corners of her lips finally brought a smile: "Don't worry, the Chu family in Hangzhou and the Chu family in Panyu are not of the same origin in the genealogy of the imperial palace.

That is what you said, even if they punish the nine clans, they will not be able to implicate the Chu family in Hangzhou.

As for the Chu family's relationship with them, it is just a business dealing. It's just that the Qian family of Tianxianglou still signed a deed with them, and the Chu family and the Panyu Chu family have been doing business for many years, and someone has asked for an accident, so they have not left any paper documents. ”

When Tao Yao heard this, she finally put her mind at ease.

As long as it is not related to the nine clans, it will not involve his mother clan in this murderous business.

As for the rest, if it is a business dealing, if there is a written deed, I am afraid that it will only punish the head and lenient it.

Unless the court ruthlessly wants to clean up the officials involved in this kind of smuggling case, these people who are involved in smuggling, the leader will be beheaded, and the family wealth will be confiscated.

The current situation of the Chu family, if it is investigated, there is no evidence of paper documents, and secondly, it is just a business transaction with the Chu family, even if the people above have to investigate, it is only Chu Yuanshan and Chu Hongzhe, the two heads of the family, and as for the female dependents of the family and the juniors such as Chu Ping and Chu Kuo, most of them will not be too implicated.

It's just that Chu Ping is the eldest son of the Chu family after all, and he will take over the Chu family's family business in the future.

If this matter was brought out by the defendant when Chu Ping was in charge, then what should be done?

Tao Yao lowered her eyebrows and pondered, only to realize that what Zheng Qiaoyan said that day was the most reasonable.

Thank you for the monthly pass, thank you for your support~
