Granny Tao felt that the Qi family brat was not bad, but because of her granddaughter's problem, she had to discuss it with her parents, so she was just praised like that. Moreover, she didn't realize that there was any problem at all, and if it wasn't for her growing up and coming back home later on, she really wouldn't know what the other party was up to, so now that Mother Tao was asking, she felt even more embarrassed.

"Mother?" Mother Tao had only come to ask casually. Although the two of them stood there and thought it was a bit silly, one was her mother-in-law, and the other was her precious daughter, she naturally wouldn't say it out loud. She had to at least save some face, but now, seeing how nervous her mother-in-law was, she couldn't help but feel her heart tighten.

"Let's talk inside." Granny Tao knew that this matter hadn't been decided yet, and it was best not to mention anything. Otherwise, if someone else were to talk about it, their family's Su Su Su's reputation wouldn't be good.

Compared to marrying into the town, she was actually more satisfied with the marriage. It was clear that at least the Qi family was not in need of food and clothing, and it was also very obvious that the Qi family used to be considered a big family in the past. It was also because of this that Tao Yu Su felt good about it, and at least because of her actions, she did not feel that she was a waste.

After she finished cooking, she heard a sound coming from the courtyard. She thought that someone had returned, but when she remembered that she had just left, she saw a tall and handsome young man standing at the entrance. It was because he had been under the sun for a long time, and he was very dark, not at all like the young man she saw today.

"The rabbit your family wants." Of course, if his ears weren't red, then that would be even more convincing. And he had already encountered two sullen men. Tao Yusu could tell with a glance that this youth was being bashful. She couldn't help but be stunned.

"Thank you." He also told them to wait in his grandmother's room and let them come out to get the silver. Now, when the two women went out, they naturally greeted him and told him to sit down and began commenting on him in all kinds of ways, feeling very honest. Such a man was good to women, they knew very well that even if he was like Tao Pa and didn't say much, he would still do the most for his family. He was the one who had raised the second house, and if others had already started talking about it, but he had never felt that his younger brother's days were not good, and taking care of him was also due to him.

Fortunately, he knew that he could not speak of the biggest matter of his family, so he did not mention that his family had gotten the royal eye. Moreover, his family had already decided to live a peaceful life here, so the royal family could not do much to them.

But when the youth returned home, he only said one thing to his grandmother: he liked it.

"…" Grandmother Qi didn't understand, indicating that this damned brat would die if she said anything more? Will it?

As soon as she reacted, she was immediately happy and wanted to go to the Tao family again. If they had the same intentions, she felt that this marriage would be enough. Their family would naturally invite the matchmaker to come over as a matchmaker.

This young man was really good, but he didn't know how heartbreaking it was. If he really didn't say anything like this, then this woman would be in a lot of trouble. Although they knew they couldn't let this go, they would still feel regret.

"What a pity." The two women said at the same time. They didn't even notice the smell of burning rabbits coming from the kitchen, nor did they notice that this rabbit was even more fragrant than usual.

In any case, she felt that this young man was still pretty good. Although she was only 15 years old, he would still make her feel like she was luring a minor into a trap. But she felt that this world was ancient, and she felt that it was a bit too much to ask the ancient people to be like the modern era, where people who were already 20 years old and could become parents began to date and get married.

Although she didn't really care much about the betrothal gift, but in ancient times, she had shown her greatest sincerity in the betrothal gift. It was one thing if the Qi family didn't have any money, but Tao Yu Su had gone to the Qi family to find out that their wife wasn't the only one who could take care of food and drinks.

Even if the Tao family's daughter was like this, the betrothal gifts would always be accompanied. Her daughter's private house would also be accompanied, and the family would even give her 10 taels of silver. Of course, if her parents were willing to give her more, it wouldn't be a problem, but Tao's mother would naturally feel heartache for her daughter, and giving more wouldn't be a problem.

"Mother?" He thought that the smell of the wild game was indeed different, and he couldn't help but quicken his pace. But he didn't expect that when he got home, his mother and his daughter-in-law would be chatting and laughing in the courtyard, and they weren't even prepared to eat anything, so where did the smell come from?

"Dad, big brother is back. Wash your hands and eat." Tao Yu Su directly called out, but she didn't expect that her uncle would also return.

As a scholar, although he had yet to become an Elementary Scholar, he was still able to earn a lot of money from selling stalls and writing books. Adding to that, his family gave him enough food to eat, and his big brother took care of him as well. Every month, he would give him enough food, meat, vegetables, chicken and eggs, as well as two taels of silver a year to pay him in front of the rent of ten acres of land.

This was also the reason why he would always buy some things for his family every time he came back, not too many of them, but they could be counted as a part of his good intentions, and this master of his was the one who caused all the trouble in the Tao family, no matter what, he was still unlucky. If he met with an incident of cheating, he would be cheated by his own niece, and from then on, he would be crippled, even if he found out later that this matter was not related to him, but when he was locked up, his leg was broken, so he would no longer be able to participate in the Imperial Examinations.

And the reason why the Tao family was like this was because of Tao Bai's nimble hands. Not only did she get people to grab Tao family's uncle, who was involved in this matter, but she also got people to break her legs. Of course, this also meant that she was not understood and loved by her family.

It was because of this reason that both the original owner and the current Tao Yushu hated each other. It was very obvious that she was not the kind of person who would provoke you if you did not provoke me. She was the kind of person who did not like you, so there was no need for you to exist.

"Alright, let's go sit down and eat. I'll go make some egg cakes." She had actually only finished cooking and had not even started cooking yet. Everything else was done by Tao Yushu alone, and now that her man son and brother-in-law had returned, she naturally felt a little embarrassed.

"Mom, let me help you." Moreover, her mother had not even served the table yet, so it was not good for her to run over. Although her uncle was still a good person, but if she did that, her uncle would probably want to use his eyes to look at her. In the past, she had once cut his hand off, and he had not been injured, so Mother Tao and Granny Tao did not want her to do anything.

When people were close to their elder brother, they would have strict requirements. As such, when people were close to their elder brother's family, they would treat him as a child of their own, so his requirements towards his nephew and niece were very high.

As for the people from the second house, they didn't care too much about it. They were polite and friendly to them, but for those who weren't close to them, this was something that they never noticed. They only felt that this little brother hated their big brother's family like they were themselves.

She could eat the rabbit meat agreed upon, but now she could eat the meat that she liked. She might not even dare to eat too much, not to mention the fact that she was not a person who would eat cat food just because she wanted to be beautiful, but this little girl was, and because of that, she felt very hungry. Even if it was the food that she cooked at home these past two days, she had tried her best to eat it, but her stomach was already too small, so no matter how much she ate, she could not eat much.

Not only was it done, the quantity was not small. Even though little uncle did not eat much, when he returned home, the quantity was always sufficient. This was home, it did not matter if you could eat all the dishes, but once you returned from school, you would definitely see a table full of dishes.

In the past, although they would be scolded from time to time, they would still be able to eat meat every three days. The day they left just happened to be the day they were going to eat meat, and two days had already passed, and they still hadn't bought meat to eat yet, which was a bit out of the question.

"What's wrong?" The little guy was so scared that it didn't even dare to move anymore. Naturally, he had no way of telling his elder sister that his mother would go to the main house to see if there was meat, or if he could steal it for them to eat.

"What's going on?" When Tao Bailing saw his younger brother's face, he knew that his mother had gone to do something bad again. She was preparing something that he wasn't allowed to do.
