Chapter 420
The next day, the Seventh Prince and Zhou Feng set off to return to the capital.
Du Bangchun and Nan Fengling took the children to the dock to see them off.
Xiao Mianmian waved at them: "Uncle! Aunt~ The
Seventh Prince and Zhou Feng stood on the deck of the ship and waved their hands towards Xiao Mianmian.
Xiao Mianmian looked at their distant figures, turned back to Du
Bangchun and asked, "Mother, uncle and aunt, when will they come back?" Du Bangchun hugged her and smiled: "Don't worry, it won't be long before they will come back with their little brothers and little sisters."
Xiao Mianmian listened to the joy, clapped her hands, and said with a smile: "I want to have a little brother and a little sister again."
Nan Fengling hugged the child and said with a smile: "Then our little little Dongdong, do you want to have a little brother and sister?"
Xiao Mianmian jumped down from Du Bangchun, came to Nan Fengling's side, and nodded with a smile.
After the family returned from the dock, Grandma Zhuang had already prepared lunch.
Tao Yaofang couldn't stay idle at home, so she helped Mama Zhuang cook, and made three or four big dishes by herself.
When Du Bangchun entered the door, Mama Zhuang said while holding the dishes: "Ah, Yaofang, you don't have to do these jobs, you go to rest." "
Tao Yaofang used to not only farm and farm at home, but also cook the family's meals, but now in the Zhou family, there are servants to do everything.
She was a little uncomfortable.
Du Bangchun walked over and said with a smile: "Yaofang, it's better to be like this, you will follow me to do business in the rice shop in the future."
Tao Yaofang was very happy and said with a smile: "Thank you, sister-in-law." "
This time, because of the sudden arrival of Jin Xiaogongzi, although the marriage between Tao Yaofang and Zhou Quan was done in a hurry, it was also done decently.
Aunt Zhou almost regarded Tao Yaofang as her daughter-in-law.
On the wedding day, he also gave a complete set of gold jewelry to Tao Yaofang.
Tao Yaofang is also very frugal, and rarely wears these on weekdays, except for the jade bracelet given by Du Bangchun.
She wears this pair of jade bracelets every day, as if as long as she wears them, she remembers to treat the Zhou family well.
The Zhou family not only gave her a life, but also rescued her from that fire pit.
When Tao Yaofang was happy, Nan Fengling walked in with the child in his arms and said, "Yaofang, have you heard that Master He has passed away?"
Tao Yaofang nodded.
Nan Fengling continued: "I just heard from the nearby villagers on the way back that now Mrs. He is in charge of the He Mansion, and she has dismissed all the concubines, so that your little sister should no longer be forced to go to the He family." "
Tao Meiyu, the younger sister of the Tao family, never appeared again when she escaped that day.
When Tao Yaofang heard it, she felt that it made sense, "However, I don't know where she went."
Du Bangchun smiled: "No matter where she goes, it is her fate." Yaofang, let's go, let's go to the rice shop first.
Tao Yaofang immediately put Tao Meiyu's matter behind, responded with a smile, and followed Du Bangchun to the shop.
The two of them came to the gate of the house one after the other, sat in the sedan chair that had been prepared a long time ago, and headed towards the rice shop.
Not far from them, a woman wearing a scarf on her head and dressed in tattered clothes secretly watched them.
This is Tao Meiyu.
After Tao Meiyu escaped from home, she had no money to go elsewhere, so she secretly became a beggar in the broken temple.
In addition to begging with a scarf every day, she came to secretly watch Tao Yaofang.
On the day Tao Yaofang and Zhou Quan got married, she watched from a distance, thinking about why she was not wearing the wedding dress.
The more Tao Meiyu thinks about it, the more she regrets it, the more she thinks about it, the more jealous she becomes, and the more she looks at it, the more uncomfortable she becomes.
But she couldn't help but look at it herself.
This time, she heard that Master He was dead, so she was ready to go home, and before leaving, she came here to take another look at Tao Yaofang.
When she saw the pile of jade bracelets that Tao Yaofang was wearing, her teeth kept chattering, and the resentment in her heart couldn't stop it.
The more I thought about it, the more unwilling I became, and secretly followed Du Bangchun and Tao Yaofang's carriage to the door of Zhou's rice shop.
After pondering, she decided not to go home.
She wants to marry someone who is better than the Zhou family, and she wants to wear gorgeous clothes to show off her power in front of Tao Yaofang and Du Bangchun.
After Tao Meiyu decided, she secretly stole the money of the in the teahouse opposite the Zhoujia rice shop, and then went to the capital as well.
On the way to the capital, Tao Meiyu met the Yuan family who were looking for someone near Qingzhou Mansion.
Lord Yuan is the minister of the DPRK who followed the Jin family to find someone this time.
However, he went in a different direction than Jin Xiaogongzi.
Lord Yuan parked the carriage on the side of the road, and when he saw poor Tao Meiyu, he gave her a pot of water and a steamed bun.
Tao Meiyu gulped down.
Lord Yuan looked at her and looked quite handsome, and asked her, "Girl, then why did you live on the streets alone and become a beggar?"
Tao Meiyu told Lord Yuan about being forcibly sold by her father and mother while eating.
She avoided the important and said the forced sale, but did not say that she was the He family who went to first.
When Lord Yuan heard this, he felt that she was a little pitiful, so he took out some silver and gave it to her.
Tao Meiyu took the silver and was grateful.
She looked at the dress of Master Yuan, and guessed in her heart that he was a senior official in the court, so she had a different mind.
She asked Lord Yuan, "My lord, you don't look like a person from Qingzhou Mansion, why did you come to this matter?"
Lord Yuan said slowly: "I'm here to find someone."
She asked again: "Who are you looking for, I am from Qingzhou Mansion, maybe I can help you."
Lord Yuan immediately took out the portraits of Aunt Zhou and Zhou Ruiyuan from his arms.
