Chapter 2711 Return to Sky Cloud (280)
"Aren't you talking nonsense, time is squeezed out, I don't do anything else, can't I accompany you to read books here." After a pause, she smiled again, "I think reading with you is more interesting than doing other things. Much more, I have never seen anyone who likes reading more than you, and my fourth uncle also likes reading, but he has never read it like you."
"But," she said, her eyes darkened, "it's also his fault that he's not in good health. Even if he wants to see it, he won't be able to watch it for a long time, so he needs to rest."
"So," her eyes lit up again, and she smiled again, "You have to exercise well, don't be like my fourth uncle, he is really bad."
Tao Mingqing replied lightly: "Hmm."
…
Tao Mingxiang left, Tao Chengyin was angry for half a month before regaining his mood.
As soon as his mood recovered, Tao Chengyin didn't care what Tao Mingxiang was doing outside, but he really thought there was no Tao Mingxiang's daughter, and began to think about Tao Mingqing's son's marriage.
On this day, December 13, Tao Chengyin called Tao Mingqing alone to the study.
"Qing'er, it's almost New Year's Eve. Dad wants to set up a marriage for you before the New Year. What do you think?"
"Father..."
Tao Mingqing just spoke when Tao Chengyin raised his face: "If you also run away from home, Dad will not be your child!"
Tao Mingqing was very helpless, "Father, what did you say, it's fine, what am I doing away from home?"
Tao Chengyin hummed: "I'm not satisfied with my marriage, what else can I do."
Tao Mingqing was even more helpless, with a face begging for mercy: "Dad..."
Tao Chengyin eased his expression and said, "I won't make an order for you directly. Tomorrow, the first son and daughter of the official minister of the Ministry of Officials will hold a plum reward banquet together, and invite some officials and young ladies to attend. My family has also received a post, so you can go too. I heard that the Merlin in their family is really flourishing and very beautiful. You go, first, to see if you can see which girl you like, and second, to take this opportunity Make more friends."
After a pause, Tao Chengyin couldn't help but exhort: "If you have a crush on a young lady, you must come back and tell Dad that many people want to betroth your daughter to you. If Dad is not afraid that you will run away from home, Dad will I've ordered a kiss for you directly, so why not let you see it yourself."
Tao Mingqing didn't know what to say.
"If you're embarrassed to go alone," Tao Chengyin said again, "you can take Fang'er with you. Fang'er will be fine anyway."
After a pause, Tao Chengyin sighed again: "Qing'er, father is worried about your marriage now, father really wants to settle your marriage a few years ago, among those young ladies in the official family, based on your identity, you It's a tall order to marry anyone."
It can be seen that the children of officials who are older than Tao Chengyin will go there tomorrow to appreciate plums.
Tao Mingqing didn't want to go, but his father had already said this, so he could only say: "Yes, father."
…
On the second day, that is, the thirteenth day of December, Tao Mingqing brought Tao Mingfang to the official secretary's home to appreciate plums.
On this day, it happened that Su Yuxin came to Tao Mingqing to find Tao Mingqing, and found that Tao Mingqing was not there, so he asked the people in Tao Mingqing's courtyard where Tao Mingqing went.
A maid hurried back and said, "Young master took Sixth Miss to go to the official secretary's house."
"What are you going to do at the Ministry of Officials?"
The maid said truthfully: "The plum blossoms in the plum forest of the official secretary of the Ministry of Officials are all blooming, and they are very beautiful, so I invited some officials and young ladies to go to appreciate the plums, and I also sent a message to the young master and sixth lady."
