Chapter 94 The Mysterious Belt

When we arrived at the front hall, we saw that Mr. Nie's family was already there.

She held the teacup in her hand, but didn't drink it. She lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

Hearing footsteps, she immediately raised her head.

When she saw that it was Tao Qian who came in, a faint smile flashed in her eyes.

"Master Tao." She stood up and greeted him gracefully.

Tao Qian nodded, "Nie Dong's family."

Dong Nie's eyes then fell on the younger generations of the Tao family.

She nodded to several people, but when she looked at Tao Yao, she was a little more cautious, "Yaoyao, your last big wedding, I was in the north and I couldn't come back, this is what I sent you Great wedding gift."

After that, she took out a box from her sleeve and handed it over.

"I don't know what you like, I hope you like this box of pearls."

When Tao Yao met her anxious eyes, she paused, reached out to take it, opened her eyes, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Nie, I like it very much."

Mr. Nie's family was ready to be put on face by her. Hearing this, he looked at her in astonishment, as if he was not used to it.

Others were also amazed.

"Master Nie's family must have come here specially for my father's birthday, right? You've had a hard journey, so sit down quickly." Tao Yao said sincerely.

Dong Nie's family are people who are used to the world. Although they are puzzled, they have calmed down.

"Thank you, Yaoyao." She obeyed and sat down.

Others followed suit.

Seeing Dong Nie's charming face, she couldn't help asking about Beidi.

"...Although it is not as rich as ours, the grasslands are vast, the land is vast, and it has a unique style." Dongjia Nie talked eloquently.

Everyone listened with gusto, and couldn't help drawing a picture of the vastness and magnificence of the grassland in their minds.

"What's in that box at Nie Dong's house?" Tao Yao looked at the box at Nie Dong's hand, and asked with a smile.

Hearing this, Dong Nie's family felt a little embarrassed, "This, this is for your father..."

"A birthday present for my father?" Tao Yao answered.

Dong's family hesitated for a while, "I couldn't think of what to give, so I embroidered a belt for Mr. Tao, but I'm not very good at being a girl, I'm afraid..."

"My father won't dislike it, my father said, it doesn't matter what you give, the important thing is the heart. Nie Dong's family quickly bring the belt to my father." Tao Yao said with a smile.

Tao Qian stared at her with wide eyes.

Those words were obviously said by Tao Ling, not him...

Hearing this, Dong's family summoned up their courage and pushed the box to his hand, probably because they were afraid that their craftsmanship would be laughed at, so she told her, "Go back and look at it."

Tao Qian didn't take the box, "It's good that Nie Dong's family is here, there is no need to bring a gift."

Things like belts were too intimate when they were appointed. If he accepted them, wouldn't it be misleading?
Dong Nie's family heard the words and glanced at him, "Could it be that the third master dislikes my rough workmanship?"

Upon hearing this, Tao Qian denied, "Of course not..."

"No, then accept it. It's your birthday today. It's not easy to ask me to come empty-handed. We have known each other for so many years. I thought we were already friends." Dongjia Nie sighed.

At this point, Tao Qian couldn't refuse anymore, "I, I'll just accept it first." He said, putting the box into his sleeve.

Seeing this, Mr. Nie's face softened a little.

"Third Master, someone sent a congratulatory gift just now, and I asked this old slave to give it to you." At this time, the housekeeper walked in with a box.

Tao Qian took it and asked in surprise, "Who gave it to you?"

"The old slave didn't know either. The gift giver left the box and ran away. The old slave didn't have time to ask." The housekeeper replied.

Tao Qian frowned, and the others also looked strange.

"Father, open it and have a look, see what it is, maybe there is a signature inside." Tao Yao said.

Tao Qian nodded and opened the box.

Unexpectedly, what was placed in the box was also a belt.

There are also exquisite embroidery patterns on the belt, which is very delicate. It can be seen that the person who gave it put his heart into it.

But Tao Qian looked at the embroidered patterns on it and was stunned.

Seeing his strangeness, Tao Yao couldn't help but take a second look.

I found that the embroidered patterns on the belt are just ordinary auspicious clouds, but the workmanship is really good. It can be seen that the person who sewed this belt is very skilled.

"Father, this is..."

Before she finished speaking, Tao Qian suddenly got up and rushed out holding his belt.

Tao Yao was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly chased him out.

"father!"

Tao Qian ran all the way to the gate of the mansion.

But where is the figure of the gift giver?

Reluctantly, he followed the direction the butler said, and chased for a long time, but he didn't find any trace of the man.

He wanted to keep looking, but Tao Yao's panting voice suddenly came from behind him, "Father, don't run away, I can't run anymore..."

Tao Qian's body shook and he came back to his senses.

Looking at the vast crowd, he sighed silently, turned around and walked towards Tao Yao.

"Go back, Yaoyao." His voice was the same as usual, but the hand holding his belt was so hard.

Tao Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but said, "Father, who gave you the belt?"

Tao Qian had a faint look on his brows, and shook his head, "I don't know either..."

Tao Yao glanced at the belt he was holding in his hand, and sighed inwardly, he lost his composure, obviously the person who gave the belt was not an ordinary person.

When he arrived in front of the mansion, Tao Qian felt a little guilty when he saw all the juniors from Dong Nie's family and Tao family waiting there.

"It's okay, let's all go in."

Dongjia Nie looked at him worriedly, but said nothing.

Because of this episode, Tao Qian's mood became depressed, and he was out of his mind when talking to everyone.

The birthday banquet is arranged in the evening.

When Lu Jiuyuan came, it was already dark.

When Tao Yao heard the servant's report, she was a little surprised.

It wasn't until Lu Jiuyuan sat down beside her that she came back to her senses and whispered, "Why are you here?"

Lu Jiuyuan glanced at her, as if he wanted to say something, but finally said: "Father-in-law's birthday, why don't I come?"

Tao Yao paused, feeling that he seemed a little unhappy, could it be because she didn't invite him to come with her?

Thinking of this, she explained in a low voice: "I thought you weren't free..."

Lu Jiuyuan paused, and sighed in a low voice, "I can make time."

Tao Yao was stunned when she heard the words, "Understood, I will definitely wait for you next time."

The corners of Lu Jiuyuan's lips curled up.

Tao Qian doesn't like to be lively, so there is no banquet for today's birthday, just a simple meal with the whole family sitting together.

But when the banquet started, Tao Qian pulled Lu Jiuyuan to drink.

Tao Yao knew how much he could drink in just one glass, and signaled Lu Jiuyuan not to drink with him.

"You girl, I heard everything you said, and you actually told Jiu Yuan not to drink with me, you are so naughty!

Today is my birthday, I have the final say.Come, Jiuyuan, let's drink! "Tao Qian picked up the jug and poured wine for Lu Jiuyuan himself.

Seeing that Tao Yao was worried, Lu Jiuyuan comforted him, "Have a drink, you should be fine."

Tao Yao: "..."

The problem is that her father can pour it in a cup.
