"Tao Le, can you do it? How can you change to such a big house quietly?" Ren Hong looked at it with a straight face and said, "How much does this cost per month? It's more than four thousand at least, right?"
Tao Zhi knew the market price a little better than Ren Hong, so he said smoothly: "Four thousand is unlikely. I think six thousand is about the same."
Then, he received a death stare from the girl, and belatedly changed his words: "What kind of house would it be if it was six thousand? It must be bigger than this one. At most four thousand... maybe... It’s no use…”
"It's not that much." Seeing that his brother was relatively quick to respond, Tao Le gathered all his energy and faced his mother: "It's only more than two thousand..." Seeing that Tao's father, Tao's mother, brother and sister-in-law were simply With an expression of disbelief, she suddenly had an idea and said half truth and half lie:
"Well, this is also a friend's. Yes, she has gone abroad and doesn't want to rent the house to outsiders. She wants me to come and live here, clean it and look at the house."
Tao Le's lie became smoother and smoother as he said it: "I just thought that the original one would only cost a thousand and eighty yuan, so I might as well pay more to live here. Anyway, it's not much money short..."
Everyone was doubtful, except for the little nephew Tao Qizhan, who was jumping around in the large room, sometimes going upstairs, sometimes running to the balcony, he was very happy.
"Lele, have you been..." Sister-in-law Li Qing keenly sensed something was wrong, but she couldn't spit out ivory from her mouth and couldn't think of a good place to go.
Even so, she didn't say anything after looking at Tao Le for a long time.
Because of Tao Le's plain appearance and slovenly attire, if he were to be kept by a rich man, some people would have to believe him.
Believe it or not, you are here anyway, so naturally you still have to stay overnight.
This house is spacious enough, with a master bedroom and a guest bedroom on the first floor, and dozens of square meters of tatami on the second floor, enough for everyone to live comfortably.
Just as Ren Hong had assigned the houses and everyone was tidying up, a surprising voice came from outside the balcony:
"Dr. Xiao Tao, are you back? Are you satisfied with the balcony now?"
But it was Fu Zihan who noticed that the lights at Tao Le's house were on and hurriedly came to report.
In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Tao Le, and everyone was thinking the same thing: I guessed it right, there is really something wrong with this house!
Tao Le hated Fu Zihan so much in her heart! If possible, she really wanted to stuff those nightmares back to him and restore him to the state before the golden finger treatment!
Ximu only sensed her resentment, but did not guess her specific thoughts. In front of Tao Le, he was still cautious and restrained, fearing that she would find out that he had done something wrong.
Of course, if you knew Tao Le's wish at this moment, you would definitely be doubly satisfied!
When he went to the hotel where the engagement party was held the next morning, Tao Le had two dark circles under his eyes.
Last night, she tried her best to explain repeatedly and found Fu Zihan to clarify the facts. Only then did she finally get rid of her family members and make them reluctantly believe that she and him only had a doctor-patient relationship.
In order to increase her credibility, she had to show in advance the graduation certificate that Zhou Jishen had just issued to her.
Although this proved to be fresh and hot, Tao Le knew when Fu Hong and the others looked at her with doubts that they probably thought they had met some charlatan.
It is true that the name of Zhou Jishen, the master of traditional Chinese medicine, is well-known to every household. Who can believe that he would secretly accept Tao Le as a registered disciple while she was in college?
If it were really that easy, wouldn't there be countless Chinese medicine doctors, big and small, all over the world, vying to squeeze out Yunshi Medical University to the point where it has no place to stand?
But no matter what he thinks in his heart, Tao Le has grown up after all, and his parents and relatives cannot take full responsibility for many things.
What I want is this rare confusion, and I can just read it later and talk about it later.
The venue for the engagement banquet was the Capita Hotel, which was ranked among the best in Yun City. For convenience, my aunt's family stayed here directly last night.
When Tao Le's family arrived, Jin Jiajia had already changed into a dress and was putting on makeup.
Uncle Jin Fei was very energetic in a suit and leather shoes, and the aunt also changed into a burgundy cheongsam, with a large and round pearl necklace around her neck, her face was rosy, and she looked rich.
When he saw Tao Le's family, the uncle didn't say anything, and the aunt's expression just froze.
"Oh, didn't I tell you in advance that the Qi family is a famous family, and the relatives and friends here today are all of high status. I asked you to dress more formally - what are you wearing here?"
After hearing her words, Monk Zhanger of the Tao family was confused.
How is their clothing informal?
Tao Xingqian found a new suit he had made ten years ago, and Ren Hong's was an orange dress that Tao Le bought for her last year. She didn't usually use it, and this was her first time wearing it.
Seeing that they didn't understand why, Ren Dong became angry.
"Dazhi, let's not talk about your parents. You are young and run a small business. Why are you so ungrateful in your clothes? Are you just wearing old models from a few years ago? Are they fakes?"
She stretched out her hand to touch the logo on Tao Zhi's chest: "Look, this logo is much bigger than the original one! Who is here today who doesn't have a sharp eye? Who can't see it clearly?"
Tao Zhi was a little confused. He never bought his own clothes. All he wore were bought by Li Qing. Who knew there were such tricks? But even if it's fake, so what?
"And you! My daughter-in-law!" Ren Dong turned to her aggressively: "Your clothes are tight and close to your back. Look at the material, tsk tsk! It's a real street stall product!"
Li Qing looked aggrieved. Her clothes were either found on a treasure hunt or indeed picked up from a street stall. This piece is brightly colored and cost a small 200 yuan. It looks very good!
Seeing her aunt's big eyes looking at him again, Tao Le quickly took a step back, feeling secretly happy in her heart.
Fortunately, Uncle Cat didn't insist on following him, otherwise he would definitely be pointed at by Ren Dong and make him angry. What would the old man do?
She was wearing a sports skirt with red polka dots on a white background today. It wasn't too formal, but it matched Ren Hong and Li Qing's clothes very well.
For some reason, Ren Dong looked at her a few times, obviously dissatisfied, but he restrained himself from finding fault with her, which surprised Tao Le.
But even so, she turned back and continued to spit fire at Ren Hong: "You are doing this, you are not trying to flatter me, you are clearly trying to embarrass me!"
Including Tao Le, every Tao family member was holding back their anger.
Ren Hong had a hot temper and immediately pulled Tao's father: "They think we are embarrassed, let's leave quickly. If anything happens in the future, don't look for poor relatives like us!"
Uncle Jin Fei didn't say a word at first and allowed Ren Dong to make irresponsible remarks. It was obvious that he also had objections to their clothes.
Now seeing that the situation was unbearable, he stood up and persuaded: "Rendong, what's the matter with you? My sister, brother-in-law and family kindly came to support us, why do you talk like this?"
He looked at the Tao family again: "Sister-in-law, brother-in-law, don't argue with your sister. She has recently entered menopause and her emotions are too serious! According to me, the most important thing is when you are here, what does it matter what you wear! "
When Jin Fei said this, Ren Hong's anger also subsided. Don't look at the monk's face and look at the Buddha's face. After all, you are here to help your niece as a guest of her mother's family. How can you really ignore her?
Seeing that it was almost time, everyone went downstairs together.
Although Tao Le did not attend the engagement banquet in his previous life, he vaguely heard Ren Hong mention it later, saying that they broke up on bad terms, and he didn't know why.
I just hope that today’s ceremony can be held smoothly, right? Tao Le felt an inexplicable worry in her heart.

Thank you very much to all the book friends for your silent support. Although the total number of first-time subscriptions was small, the ratio of subscriptions to collections reached 15.3%. This number greatly encouraged Xiaohai.
Due to various reasons, it was released much earlier than expected, so the last little plot before the main drama has not ended yet. Xiaohai thought about simply skipping over, but this would affect the integrity of the plot and lose some foreshadowing for the follow-up, so I continued to write according to the original plan. Please be more patient. Xiaohai also tried his best to write wonderfully and differently. the taste of.
Love you guys! It is the encouragement and support from my parents that accompany Xiaohai to continue his creation. I have been having some health problems recently, so I am still updating two chapters a day, with two thousand words each in the morning and afternoon. If I get better in the future, I may increase it to six thousand. In short, this will be a long and exciting story. Please continue to support and trust Xiaohai!
