Chapter 316 Uneasy
Before Mr. Tao could answer, Mrs. Tao put the teacup away, and said with a sneer, "Because Mr. Lin has a mother who is the daughter of a rebellious minister! Da Lang, if you marry Mrs. Luo and come in, don't you have the heart to watch your son's future?" Like the second son Lin, who is full of talent but has nowhere to display his ambitions, and spends his life as a commoner?"
Master Tao was stopped by the question.
In all fairness, who has the heart to let their children live a harder life than others from birth?
Ms. Tao sighed: "As a parent, you always want the best for your children. Your father and I are like this. Are you an exception?"
"Mother, I—"
"Go back to your room and study. When you become famous in the apricot list next year, you still worry about not being able to marry a good woman?"
"But-"
"There is nothing but, I can only say that you and Miss Luo are not destined to be husband and wife." Mrs. Tao said coldly, and she frowned at the thought of Luo Sheng. If it can be preserved the first time, it will cause a big disaster sooner or later. If that Luo girl gets into trouble again, she will not be protected by her father who is the commander of the Jinlin Guard."
After listening to Mrs. Tao's persuasion, Mr. Tao went back to his room in a daze.
The room is full of books, and the incense that can refresh the mind is lingering.
Young Master Tao slowly scanned the scrolls, feeling a battle between heaven and man.
For a while, I felt that what my mother said made sense, and for a while, the appearance of a dignified and beautiful girl appeared in my mind.
He is very pleased with Miss Luo.
I still remember that when we first got married, he was dissatisfied because the other party was the daughter of the commander of Jin Linwei, but after a few contacts, he changed his mind.
He likes her quiet and calm eyebrows and eyes, and likes her shy eyes when she looks at him.
It’s like an indifferent ink painting, an orchid blooming in an empty valley, and a relaxing book.
He fantasized about his married life with her as equals, and he also told her the words of love together.
But now, it suddenly changed.
Rational and emotional struggles are endless, but Mr. Tao has a somewhat gentle temperament. He was depressed for a while and fell ill.
My precious son was ill, and Mrs. Tao felt very distressed.
She knew that the eldest son had a heart attack.
Since it is a heart disease, the key is to untie the knot.
Chun Wei is about to come, and nothing is as important as her son's body. For the time being, Mrs. Tao suppressed her son's dissatisfaction with Miss Luo's affection, and went to the residence of Mr. Tao.
Master Tao is resting in the east room, but in fact, this place is a bit strange to him.
The place he is most familiar with is the study room, those scrolls and the fragrance of ink.
It is not so easy to stand out at a young age on the road of imperial examination.
Studying hard in the cold window is never just talk.
"Mother is here." Young Master Tao struggled to get up.
Mrs. Tao held down her son: "Lie down well."
Young Master Tao stopped moving.
"feel better now?"
"much better."
Madam Tao nodded, signaling the servants in the house to step back.
When there were only mother and son in the room, Mrs. Tao sighed: "Da Lang, it's your parents who are so dear to you."
"Mother don't have to worry, the son will get better." Mr. Tao said so, but his heart felt empty and uncomfortable.
He knew that his parents were doing it for his own good, but when he thought about missing out on that quiet woman, he couldn't feel better.
Madam Tao shook her head, and said earnestly: "Da Lang, you have been engaged to Miss Luo for several years, and it is only natural to take her into your heart. This mother knows it."
"Listen to me."
Master Tao fell silent.
"Unfortunately, everything goes your way. Besides, Miss Luo can't become your wife, it doesn't mean you don't have a chance to be together."
Master Tao's eyes lit up, and he was eager: "Mother?"
Mrs. Tao saw it in her eyes, and she was angry in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face: "The Luo family is facing a catastrophe. If the crimes committed by the governor of the Luo family are serious, and the daughter of the Luo family can only be a slave or a prostitute, then if you want to settle Miss Luo, I won't stop you either."
Mrs. Tao paid attention to her son's expression while talking, and continued: "If the governor does not affect the family, without the support of the big tree of Governor Luo, the fall of the Luo family is inevitable. As long as our family reveals the intention of accepting Miss Luo as a concubine, The Luo family will definitely get what they want."
Master Tao was lost in thought.
When Madam Tao saw this, she bent her lips.
God knows how much disgust she endured to say these words.
She didn't want her son to have anything to do with the criminal's daughter, even if it was a concubine, Miss Luo was not worthy.
Take care of your son first and study hard, and later marry a beautiful woman and concubine, and then you will still remember who Miss Luo is.
Take ten thousand steps back, even if the son can't forget it, so what.
Men get it, so it's not new.
Mrs. Tao strikes while the iron is hot: "Da Lang, no one thinks about the matter of Governor Luo, but now that we have met, we can't just come here with our own thoughts. What do you think?"
Master Tao finally said, "Mother really won't stop me from being with Miss Luo in the future?"
Madam Tao smiled and said firmly, "No."
Master Tao slowly smiled.
Xu was relieved, and within a few days, Mr. Tao recovered from his illness.
But there was one thing on his mind: Miss Luo didn't know what he wanted, and when Governor Luo was convicted, what if she couldn't bear the blow and committed suicide or followed others casually in frustration?
The more Mr. Tao thought about it, the more uneasy he became, and he planned to meet Luo Ying.
Unfortunately, unlike Miss Luo who wanders around all day, Miss Luo is a lady who rarely goes out, so it is not so easy to meet her.
Not to mention the embarrassing situation where the two have divorced.
Following Mr. Tao's orders, the servants outside Luo's mansion waited for a few days, and finally Luo Ying's maid went shopping in the street in order to make her master happy.
The servant quietly followed, and slipped the letter into the servant girl's hand while no one was paying attention.
The servant girl was taken aback, and when she regained her senses, she had already run away.
The servant girl glanced down at the letter, and suddenly lost her mind to buy things, and hurried back to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.
Luo Ying was staring at the wedding dress in a daze.
The marriage has been divorced, and she also accepted the fact of the divorce, but looking at the wedding dress embroidered stitch by stitch, her heart seemed to be immersed in an ice cave, cold and uncomfortable.
Luo Ying raised the scissors, bit her lip and put them down.
She embroidered her vision of the future married life into this red wedding dress, and it was ruined just like that, it was no different from piercing her heart with scissors.
Missing up with that person is hard to come by.
The servant girl walked in quickly.
Luo Ying was startled slightly: "Lue, didn't you go out?"
Lue enshrined the letter: "Girl, a letter from Mr. Tao."
Luo Ying opened the letter with trembling hands, read every word carefully, and wept silently.
In Xianyunyuan, Kouer shook her head again and again: "Lue can't do it, the reaction is so big when I receive a letter, the servant girl can see something is wrong at a glance."
Thinking back when Kaiyang King’s people stuffed letters into her hands as she was walking on the street, she didn’t keep her face.
Good morning.
