Aunt Tao said sternly: "You still know that I am your mother. In all these years, Meiyu, your second brother and your third brother and I have never treated you badly. It is indeed his fault that your third brother used the fifty taels of silver. But didn’t mother go raise some money later? It was He Mansion that you wanted to go to. Have you forgotten how you came out of the room and escaped?!"
Tao Meiyu covered her face, crying and shouting: "Mom, hit me!"
Aunt Tao almost fainted when she heard this.
The two mother and daughter were arguing in the yard, but no one said who caused the incident.
If the two of them hadn't gone to provoke the He family in order to set up Tao Yaofang, they probably wouldn't have gotten into such trouble.
Aunt Tao and Tao Meiyu knew it well, but neither of them admitted it. They complained to each other, and on the second day, Tao Meiyu ran away secretly again.
But this time Aunt Tao didn't know where she ran. ?.?????.ℂ??
Three days later, Tao Laosan was sent back by the He family.
Tao Laosan did not suffer any external injuries, but he was stunned.
When Aunt Tao saw it, she looked at Tao Laosan who was eating cow dung in front of her. Her face was pale, and she seemed to have aged more than ten years.
Tao Laosan ate with gusto and grinned.
"My son!"
Aunt Tao lost her balance and fell into the smelly pool nearby.
The second child of the Tao family poked his head out of the room and shook his head. Normally, his mother liked to pamper the third child.
It was only a matter of time before the third child became like this.
He turned around, packed his things, and left home with his luggage on his back.
Before leaving, the second eldest child of the Tao family came to the Zhou family's rice shop, wanting to see the eldest sister for the last time.
As soon as Du Wanchun came out of the rice shop, he looked up and saw the second son of the Tao family wearing gray clothes.
He hesitated with something in his hand and did not enter the shop.
Du Wanchun called to him: "Brother Tao, why did you come to our rice shop?"
The second eldest son of the Tao family lowered his head and walked slowly over and said, "I...I want to see my eldest sister."
At this time, Tao Yaofang came from inside, saw the second son of the Tao family and smiled: "Second brother, why are you here?"
The second son of the Tao family kept looking around, fearing that someone would find him.
Du Wanchun smiled and said, "Yao Fang, why don't you and your second brother go into the house to talk."
Tao Yaofang smiled and nodded, and then brought the second son of the Tao family into the house.
After the two entered the house, the second son of the Tao family quickly asked Tao Yaofang: "Sister, how are your injuries?"
Tao Yaofang looked down at her legs and said with a smile: "It's almost good, but it will hurt a little on rainy days."
The second son of the Tao family lowered his head with distress on his face.
He slowly took out a small bundle from his arms and said, "Sister, this is for you."
"Give this to me?" Tao Yaofang asked doubtfully.
The second son of the Tao family nodded, "Sister, please keep it first."
Tao Yaofang slowly took the baggage in her hand, and then opened it, only to see that there was silver inside.
The second son of the Tao family wiped away his tears and said with a smile: "Sister, this is the money I have saved over the years. It is not much, only about ten taels of silver. Think of it as the dowry I left for you."
Tao Yaofang held the silver in her hands, frowned and asked him, "Give me the silver that's at the bottom of the box, and what about yourself?"
The second son of the Tao family held his luggage and said slowly: "I'm going to the capital."
"Going to the capital?" Tao Yaofang asked in surprise.
The second son of the Tao family replied with firm eyes: "Yes, I plan to go to the capital. I don't want to stay in this family anymore."
Tao Yaofang put the money in her hand aside and asked doubtfully: "Why do you suddenly think of leaving? Did something happen at home?"
The second child of the Tao family told her everything that happened at home recently, "Sister, my parents brought this on themselves."
Tao Yaofang let out a long sigh, "It seems like it would be better to leave here and go to the capital."
Aunt Tao harmed her two daughters and one son, and now only the second child is left as a normal person, and Tao Yaofang does not want him to be implicated again.
She immediately returned the money to him and said, "You need to pay for traveling to the capital alone, so you can keep these."
The second son of the Tao family pushed the money back to her, "Sister, don't worry, I still have money in my hand. You can take these. Although our family is poor, we still have a dowry. Ten taels of silver is not much. You can buy a hairdresser in the future." The hairpin looks good on your head.”
Tao Yaofang's eyes gradually turned red, and tears fell uncontrollably.
Seeing that she refused to accept it, the second son of the Tao family added, "Just think of it as my thoughts for you."
