Chapter 299

Tao Ruohui was sitting in the study at this moment, although his eyes were fixed on the book, he was still thinking about his daughter, and was anxiously waiting for himself, when he suddenly saw Tao Wenjuan walking in with his hands full, he hurriedly stepped out of the room, stepped forward After taking the small bamboo basket, he asked again: "Why have you been away for so long? But the Qin family has something to do?"

Tao Wenjuan first put down her things on the Tao table, then took out a cloth towel to wipe the sweat from her forehead, and said with a smile, "It's nothing, father, don't worry, it's just a chat with Mrs. Tai."

Although she was sitting in the car on this journey, the weather was hot after all, her oval face was slightly reddened by the heat, her brows were emerald and her eyes were full of water, she was extremely beautiful and moving.

Seeing his daughter talking and laughing at Yan Yan, Tao Ruohui's expression did not relax.He moved the bamboo basket to the edge of the pottery table, then sat down, his brows were slightly frowned, and his face was full of worry.

Tao Wenjuan knew what was on his mind, and since she didn't want to touch his heartache, she just pretended not to know, and neatly packed the books and stationery on the case.

"I heard that the Qin family... just came back from Shangjing." Tao Ruohui's voice came over abruptly, the tone was deep and low, which seemed to indicate that the speaker was depressed.

Tao Wenjuan sighed silently, the movements of her hands finally slowed down, and she turned her head to look at Tao Ruohui.

Tao Ruohui's brows were already furrowed at this time, and the worry in his eyes was so thick that he could hardly melt away.

Her own daughter was picked up by that rascal Hu Tian, ​​it was not a good thing after all, the Qin family had heard about it since they came back from the capital, and maybe they had looked down on Tao Wenjuan.

Every time he thinks about this, Tao Ruohui's heart hurts like a knife.

The reputation of the little lady is always important, even though he has great ambitions, he always regards this only daughter more than anything else, and when he thinks of the past, he can't help but regret again.

If he hadn't insisted on going his own way, if he hadn't rushed to Shangjing, those things might not have happened.

Thinking like this, the worry in his eyes turned into sadness, and he said in a low voice: "It's still all my fault, I'm useless as a grandpa, but I'm so tired..."

"Father, stop talking." Tao Wenjuan interrupted him softly. On her beautiful face, her eyes were bright and clear. "Father is not in good health. As a daughter, I should relieve my father's worries. Besides, my father is white-headed." Ambitious, I, a black-haired man, shouldn't be short of breath and imitate those ignorant women and children."

The beautiful and moving voice is like a clear stream flowing in the mountains, but every word she utters is loud and full of ambition.

Tao Ruohui was slightly taken aback by what she said, he paused for a moment, his eyes suddenly felt sore, he couldn't help covering his face with his sleeves.

"My daughter is like this, Grandpa is really... very shameless." He said in a trembling voice, the dark blue sleeves trembled with his voice, and his gray hair also trembled in this voice Trembling, indescribably old and haggard.

Seeing her father blaming herself so much, Tao Wenjuan felt sore in her heart, but she finally held back the tears welling up in her eyes.With reddish eye circles, she stepped forward to pour a cup of tea for Tao Ruohui lightly, and said softly: "Father, let's drink a cup of tea, don't suffer so much, my daughter is fine, and I never take those things to heart Come on. Although the father is an elder, he should learn from his daughter at this time."

The clear and light voice is like the most warm current in the world, flowing through Tao Ruohui's heart.

After saying a word, Tao Wenjuan sat on the chair beside her, with a joyful expression on her face, and said with a smile: "Father is only focused on talking, I don't know that I brought delicious fruit. Mrs. Madam gave me loquat pills again, her old man treats his daughter with generosity and compassion..."

She spoke cheerfully as much as possible, and then opened the bamboo basket and wooden box for Tao Ruohui to look at, looking like a happy little daughter.

Tao Ruohui's mood gradually improved with the consolation of her beloved daughter.

Tao Wenjuan persuaded at the right time: "Father once said that 'unrestricted people are at ease'. Now it is time for my father to put aside the past and look forward. Father, think about it, you have found a suitable ethnology. "The Qin family's gentlemen are also smart and upright. As long as they are carefully instructed, they will become great talents. Father should show his talents. And we have successfully found the uncle's family, so we can be regarded as having relatives." In the future, there will be holidays, and we will have relatives visiting, and the days will be much more lively. Father only thinks about these happy things, and his mood will be much better."

Her voice was whispering, like the warm summer wind blowing through her heart outside the window, the regret in Tao Ruohui's heart gradually faded away.He is originally a free and unrestrained personality, if the matter of going to Beijing did not involve his beloved daughter, he would not always get into this dead end.At this moment, under the comfort of his daughter's gentle words, he finally let go of his mind, and the expression on his face recovered a lot.

Seeing that his mood improved, Tao Wenjuan felt relieved, and got busy again. She took the fruit out of the bamboo basket, washed it with clean water, and found two large earthenware bowls, one for peaches and one for peaches. There are only grapes, and they are all placed on the table in the study.

Compared with the rigid offering bottles and book sets, these two bowls of fruit are bright, cute, lively and unique, which makes this study room a bit more wild.

After picking up the fruit, Tao Wenjuan kept moving, and took the small box of pills to the main room of the inner courtyard. She was waiting to find a place to put it, when suddenly someone knocked on the courtyard door, and a woman's voice came: "Excuse me, is this the Tao family?"

Tao Wenjuan frowned.

The last time a woman slammed on the door was when she was in Beijing. The mean face of Hui Yin Fang Xu woman is not something that can be forgotten if she wants to.

She concentrated her mind, put the wooden box on the shelf at the side, and went out to the front yard, but met Tao Ruohui who came out of the study.

"Go answer the door for my father, and my son will go inside for a while." He said in a low voice, with a rather cold expression on his face.

Seeing her father's solemn expression, Tao Wenjuan didn't insist, she said softly, "Father, take it easy", then walked back to the west chamber, and closed the doors and windows again.

Tao Ruohui straightened the corner scarf on her hair, turned slowly to the flower curtain, and opened the courtyard door, only to see an unfamiliar woman standing outside the door, wearing cocoon silk clothes, fair skin, round face with slender eyebrows, It seemed quite kind.

When the woman saw someone came out to answer the door, she took a step back, bowed down in a graceful manner and said, "I'm taking the liberty, sir, forgive me." Li Bi straightened up, looked at Tao Ruohui and asked, "Excuse me, sir, is your surname Tao?" ?”

Recently, Tao Ruohui often went to the Qin residence, and seeing the woman's demeanor, she knew that she must be the servant in charge of a noble family, and it was not good to be too entrusted, so she turned slightly to give way, politely. Authentic: "Pu Zheng's surname is Tao."
