This surprised Tao Yaofang, and she suddenly raised her eyes to look at him, "Mr. Zhou, you..."
Zhou Quan said seriously: "Our Zhou family does not necessarily want to marry the Tao family. If I hadn't seen you that day, I would have kicked your mother and sister out long ago."
"So the person you always wanted to marry was just me?" Tao Yaofang asked in surprise.
Zhou Quan nodded very seriously, "That's right."
Tao Yaofang said in disbelief: "But my sister looks much better than me..."
Zhou Quan quickly retorted: "No, I think you are prettier than your sister. No, in other words, you are better than your sister in everything."
Tao Yaofang's face was full of surprise, and her nose soon became sore, and her eyes were slightly red. Growing up, her mother always said that she was not as well-behaved, as beautiful, and as smart as her younger sister.
No matter how big or small things are at home, she is not as good as her younger sister.
I didn’t expect that some people would think she is better than my younger sister now. ?.?????.???
She felt like she was in a dream, and she was quite surprised. Her eyes looking at Zhou Quan became much gentler.
Zhang Qiuhe on the side continued to say to her: "Miss Tao, are you afraid that your mother will continue to beat you, so you want to stay and work in Zhou's shop?"
Tao Yaofang shook her head, "No, it's not just that. My mother and my sister colluded to sell me to the Master of the He family in Qingzhou Prefecture as a concubine."
"What?!" Zhang Qiuhe was shocked, "Then who is Mr. He? I heard that every month a concubine in the mansion becomes seriously ill."
Tao Yaofang lowered her head and said, "I didn't expect them to be so cruel, so they escaped here with serious injuries."
Zhou Quan slapped the table angrily, "How dare they! They actually sent my unmarried wife to be a concubine!"
That sentence of a virgin bitten very hard.
Even though Tao Yaofang knew that Zhou Quan was a timid man, she still felt safe at this moment.
Du Wanchun's eyes darkened as he listened to their conversation. After a long time, he changed the subject and said, "Miss Tao just woke up just now. I'm afraid she's tired. Let's let her have a good rest first."
Zhang Qiuhe sounded reasonable, but he was afraid that she was not in the right mood, so he did not continue to ask any more questions.
Zhou Quan was now filled with anger and rushed out of the door before Du Wanchun could finish speaking.
Du Wanchun opened the door and immediately chased after him, "Fifth brother, wait, fifth brother."
Zhou Quan turned around and said, "Sister-in-law, I know you are afraid that I will do something stupid, but I can't bear this. I have to go to their house to ask for an explanation."
Du Wanchun comforted him and said: "That Aunt Tao is an unreasonable person. If you go to make a quarrel now, they will only cry, make trouble, and hang themselves."
Zhou Quan frowned and said, "Can I just sit back and watch?"
Du Wanchun arched his eyebrows and said meaningfully: "Of course not."
She raised her tone slightly and asked him, "Are you really determined to marry Tao Yaofang as your wife?"
Zhou Quan nodded heavily, "Yes,"
Du Wanchun nodded lightly and said: "From now on, you must protect her no matter what."
Zhou Quan said without hesitation: "Of course."
Du Wanchun looked back at Tao Yaofang's house, "Let her recover well and come home with me immediately."
Zhou Quan didn't know what she meant.
Du Wanchun took two steps forward and said, "Miss Tao has disappeared for a few days, so the Tao family should be looking for her."
Zhou Quan was startled, then turned around and followed him immediately.
After Aunt Tao and Tao Meiyu waited patiently at home for a few days, they came to the Zhou Mansion together.
They did not go to the Yamen, but wanted to come to the Zhou Mansion to put pressure on the Zhou family.
Aunt Zhou didn't know what was going on, so she asked her servant to pour a cup of tea for each of them.
"Old Tao family, why are you here?"
Aunt Tao wiped her tears with a handkerchief and said while crying: "Mrs. Zhou, our Yaofang is missing."
"Yao Fang is missing? What's going on?" Aunt Zhou looked shocked, and her face was suddenly filled with worry.
She knew that Zhou Quan liked Tao Yaofang, but why did she disappear before the marriage was completed.
Tao Meiyu on the side also pretended to cry, "My sister went to the fields a few days ago and never came back. We sent people to look for her, but found nothing."
