Gao Zhiyuan put on a gentle smile, but as soon as he said it, he slapped Li Qiao: "Li Qiao, you brought the folks from your village here with such a big fanfare, are you trying to steal the bride?"
"...kidnapping?"
Li Qiao was amused by these words: "When did Brother Zhu get engaged to Brother Gao?"
Of course we were engaged in a previous life!
Gao Zhiyuan snorted in his heart.
In his previous life, he was indeed engaged to Tao Zhu.
His mother, Chen Yinhan, felt that Tao Zhu was as capable as an old scalper, so she wanted him to marry Tao Zhu back to work.
But he disliked Tao Zhuchou, and after getting engaged, he only allowed Tao Zhu to work in his house, but refused to marry Tao Zhu.
After procrastinating like this for a year, he passed the scholar examination and was attracted by the landlord's daughter. So he happily broke off his marriage with Tao Zhu and married the landlord's daughter instead.
But who knows!
A few years later, Tao Zhu actually rescued the seventh prince of the current dynasty. The seventh prince wanted to take him to the capital, but he did not agree, so the seventh prince bought him a farm and a house in Pingcheng.
Tao Zhu, a little brother, became a big landowner!
And he, because the landlord oppressed the tenant farmers and caused several lives, his family property was confiscated, and his son-in-law was also implicated and deprived of his honor.
Of course, this was a lifetime ago.
In this life, although he is not really engaged to Tao Zhu yet, he and Tao Shu have reached a verbal agreement yesterday. As a promising child, he also knows the recipe for maltose. This muddy Li Qiao, what can you argue with him for?
Do you think it will be useful if you bring more folks?
Just ridiculous.
Thinking like this, he looked at Tao Shu confidently: "My uncle can testify that we got engaged yesterday."
But who would have expected that Tao Shu rolled his eyes, glanced at the oil paper bag in Li Qiao's hand, and then shook his head in denial.
"Xiao Gao, we only reached a verbal agreement yesterday, but Brother Zhu didn't agree, so strictly speaking, our two families are not engaged."
"...What did you say? You clearly agreed yesterday! How dare you go back on your word?!"
Gao Zhiyuan's confident expression cracked and he couldn't help asking loudly.
As a scholar, he naturally has a sense of superiority over a rotten person like Tao Shu.
When he saw that Tao Shu was going back on his word and playing tricks on him, he couldn't help but be furious.
Tao Shu suddenly became unhappy.
What doesn't he dare to regret?
Gao Zhiyuan claimed to know how to make maltose, but at this time he hadn't even seen the hair of maltose, let alone the Gao family's poverty-stricken family like his!
But Li Qiao is different. Although Li Qiao owes a lot of debt, Li Qiao can catch fish and has a sweet eating business, making money every day!
So isn't it normal for him to hesitate?
What are you yelling at him now?
Even if he regrets it, he is still Tao Zhu's eldest brother!
I have no respect for my elders!
The guilt in his heart suddenly changed from ten points to five points: "Originally, we agreed that you would give me the recipe for maltose before I could marry Brother Zhu to you. Now I don't have the recipe for maltose. son."
"And I just said, Brother Zhu doesn't want to marry you."
"Although Brother Zhu is the younger brother, my family has never been a patriarchal person. He was raised by us and pampered. He makes the final decision on his marriage. If he doesn't agree, then the marriage cannot be finalized. "
"you!"
Gao Zhiyuan almost laughed angrily at these words. With Tao Shu's bad character, if Tao Zhu didn't really enter the Gao family, how could he dare to give Tao Shu the recipe for maltose in the first place!
Moreover, this family clearly exploited Tao Zhu as a slave, but in the end, Tao Shu treated him like a spoiler?
He has never seen such a shameless person!
"That's good! Brother Zhu makes the decision on his own regarding his marriage."
Li Qiao laughed out loud. As he spoke, he walked towards Tao Shu and handed over the oil paper bag in his hand: "Brother Shu, you and sister-in-law, Uncle Tao and Aunt Tao will try this Feng cake. It tastes good. I'll make it." of."
"okay!"
Tao Shu took the five kilograms of Shaqima without ceremony.
Lai Dongmei came to him at a trot, and opened the oil paper bag quickly, and a sweet smell immediately penetrated their nostrils.
"Ouch! It smells delicious."
Lai Dongmei immediately reached out, pinched a piece and put it in her mouth.
Tao Shu also pinched a piece and ate it.
Needless to say, the taste of Shaqima is crisp, soft, sweet and very delicious.
In Li Qiao's previous life, when the apocalypse had not yet come, and when material was extremely abundant, Shaqima could have become a classic snack, let alone in the Tao family, which could not eat snacks more than a few times a year.
Lai Dongmei's eyes were as bright as light bulbs, and she was devouring the food without even thinking about talking.
Tao Shu was a little stronger than her. He chewed and smiled with his mouth crooked, and vaguely asked Li Qiao and Li Liang to sit down quickly.
At this time, Mrs. Tao and Old Man Tao came to Li Qiao, smiled so hard that they took the fish from Li Qiao's hand, and greeted warmly: "Sit down quickly. Are you thirsty? Have a bowl of water." .”
"We are not thirsty."
Li Qiao answered with a smile, looking good-tempered.
Tao Shu was even more satisfied. When asking for marriage, you should look like you are asking for marriage. Who are you showing off to?
However, Gao Zhiyuan is a child student after all. As long as he passes the college examination, he will be a scholar.
He didn't really want to offend a future scholar.
What's more, this future scholar has to leave the maltose recipe to him!
Although the snacks Li Qiao brought were good, this business might not fall into his hands.
Thinking of this, he said to Gao Zhiyuan: "Xiao Gao, you should understand me. Two families came to ask for marriage at the same time. We must choose one."
"Besides, Brother Zhu is not here, so we still have to listen to Brother Zhu's opinion."
At this time, Gao Zhiyuan's mother, Chen Yinhan, came over. She said with a smile: "Zhiyuan, Xiaoshu is right. A good brother can be found in hundreds of schools of thought. Brother Zhu is a good person. Xiaoshu is doing it for Brother Zhu." For the sake of your children, you really have to choose carefully.”
These words touched Tao Shu's heart. Tao Shu nodded: "No, Auntie is sensible. Sit down quickly, I'll find someone to call Brother Zhu back."
Hehe, he originally thought that Brother Zhu was a loser and he had to support Brother Zhu for the rest of his life. Who knew that two families would come to ask for marriage today!
He must choose the one that is most beneficial to him!
Thinking like this, he didn't care about Gao Zhiyuan's face, which was darker than the bottom of the pot, and said to Li Qiao:
"Li Qiao, tell me, why do you want to marry Brother Zhu? The conditions given by Xiao Gao are quite good."
"Brother Shu, I can also make maltose. If Brother Zhu and I get married, then I will teach you how to make it."
Li Qiao said with a smile.
"What?! You can do it too?!"
Tao Shu was startled and almost choked on the Shaqima in his mouth.
Others in the yard, including the villagers watching at the door, also looked in disbelief.
Can Li Qiao make maltose?
"impossible!"
Gao Zhiyuan asked loudly: "You are lying! If you can make maltose, why don't you make it and sell it?"
"I only read about it from miscellaneous books recently, and I haven't had time to make it yet. But, Brother Gao, since you know the recipe for maltose, why don't you make it and sell it?"
Li Qiao was curious.
In the original impression, Gao Zhiyuan's family background was not good.
"Hmph, I am a scholar, how can I be contaminated by the vulgarity of a businessman!"
Gao Zhiyuan said with a proud look.
"Brother Gao is right. But this is a marriage proposal, not a businessman's business. Why don't we make maltose at the same time and see who can really make it?"
"What do you mean by this?!" Gao Zhiyuan's expression changed: "Are you questioning me?!"
"When it comes to Brother Zhu's life-long events, you must be more cautious." Li Qiao smiled gently.
But Tao Shu's heart skipped a beat.
That’s a good thing to say.
According to the verbal agreement he and Gao Zhiyuan reached, on the day Zhugeer and Gao Zhiyuan got married, Gao Zhiyuan told him how to make maltose.
But if Gao Zhiyuan did something wrong, wouldn't he gain nothing?
Just as he was about to agree to Li Qiao's proposal, the villagers' greetings came from the door.
"Huh? Brother Zhu is back?"
"Brother Zhu is back, Brother Zhu, come quickly, Li Qiao has come to propose marriage!"

The author has something to say:
Don’t worry, treasures, we won’t let Tao Shu take advantage!
Chapter 16 Let Li Qiao marry into the wife’s wife, chaos
Tao Zhu was pushing a cart with wheat piled on it as usual.
He heard the greetings of the villagers from afar, and his heart that had been hanging in the air finally fell to the ground.
This person really came to propose marriage.
