The food at the Plum Appreciation Banquet is exquisite, but the taste is very ordinary. The main reason is that the kitchen is a little far away, and it was already a little cold when it was delivered here. Yin Tao, like everyone else, just moved her chopsticks casually and put it down.

She picked up the warm wine and sipped it slowly, but she was thinking about today's events over and over again in her mind.

If it was possible, she didn't want to confront the Luo family so early, but since the matter had already happened, she should think about what to do next?
She asked Wang Yu'er in a low voice: "What is the origin of this young mistress of the Luo family?"

Wang Yu'er pursed her lips: "Her father is Mrs. Chen, Prime Minister of the Left. She is an old daughter of the Chen family. She is as proud as a flower peacock. She always shouts at and ridicules those who are not as good as her. Everyone They don't like her, but who told her to have a good father? There are many people who flatter her. Hmph, what kind of good husband did she think she wanted to marry? After picking and choosing, she actually became Luo Shizi's successor, Look at her attire, I really want to be afraid that others will not know how favored she is!"

Yin Tao listened quietly, feeling a little more dignified in her heart. Mrs. Luo has such a strong and domineering personality, and Mrs. Changping Hou's stern eyes when she was leaving all showed that they would definitely not let it go!

Although my husband and wife are protected by King Kang, the Luo family is backed by the Queen Mother and King Qi, and the Luo family is already powerful, so it is easy to kill myself.

The only thing to be thankful for is that King Qi and King Kang are at a critical juncture. I am afraid that the Luo family will not dare to act rashly and give Kang Wang a faction a handle.

However, things should not be left to chance, Yin Tao thought that she should accumulate her own strength.

Wang Yu'er was still introducing the people in the field to her in a low voice, all of them were from well-established families. Yin Tao looked over one by one, and these people were all looking at her consciously or unconsciously, but when they saw her looking over, they immediately moved away. Opened the line of sight.

Moreover, Yin Tao found that none of the real top princes and nobles came, which shows that the influence of this plum blossom banquet is also limited.

Yin Tao looked at everyone calmly, slowly thinking about what to do next?
When she looked back, she saw that Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Wang were chatting, she was suddenly blessed, and she moved to sit behind Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Wang, and said with a smile: "Two ladies, excuse me, I have something to ask .”

Mrs. Lin turned her body to look at Yin Tao, and joked, "Why are you asking us? If it's too difficult, don't open your mouth!"

After today's incident, Mrs. Lin actually liked this daughter-in-law Ye Er who was not afraid of power.

Yin Tao felt it keenly, and said in a somewhat intimate tone: "Before my subordinates said that there were many people who died of freezing in the city, my heart softened, so I did something in the name of the shop and the Ye family. Good deeds. But I found that this year is very cold, and there are too many people in need of help in the city. I have limited financial resources, and I thought if the two wives also contribute, we can pool resources to do a good deed together, which can help some Human beings can be regarded as meritorious deeds!"

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she also turned to look at Yin Tao: "You have a lot of tricks. Everyone spends a day or two serving porridge outside the city before and after the Chinese New Year. This good deed means nothing more."

Yin Tao smiled and moved forward, and said: "Mrs. Wang, the ancients said that one should not do good because it is small, and do not do evil even if it is small. Of course, giving porridge is also a kind deed. But what's the point of everyone doing the same thing?" What about it? Madame, do you think that instead of putting a lot of money in nunneries and temples to pray for the Buddha to bless the family, it would be more practical to save one more life!"

Mrs. Qi next to her was Mrs. Wang's cousin, and she also heard something. She also turned around and asked a few questions with interest. Although she felt that what Yin Tao said was reasonable, she also knew that it was not easy.

Mrs. Qi said: "Second daughter-in-law Ye is right, but the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and those of us who have to deal with Zhongfu, I'm afraid we don't have time to do these things!"

Yin Tao smiled and said: "Well, some of my subordinates already have some experience, you can trust me, you can give me the money, and I will arrange it. Of course, on the day of doing charity, the wives can send someone to follow and help."

"That's very good, then I will also contribute some money, and trouble Mrs. Ye Er to work together, as long as you bring my Qi family's name on it!"

Mrs. Qi is a straightforward person, and she speaks directly. She specifically said that she wanted to bring the name of the Qi family, but she already made it clear that she was asking for a good name for this matter.

Yin Tao smiled and complimented Mrs. Qi for her kindness and kindness, and everything will go well.

Mrs. Qi smiled like a flower, and sat down with her daughter so that it was convenient to talk.

Some guests began to go out one after another, some to enjoy the flowers, and some to leave and go home.

Mrs. Li turned around and looked at the few people who were talking happily after sending someone off, so she couldn't help coming over and asking why she was so happy?

Hearing everyone talking about doing charity, Mrs. Li didn't know whether she was really interested or she couldn't save face as the host, so she also smiled and ordered someone to pick up 200 taels of silver notes to Yin Tao, and entrusted her to take care of it together.

Yin Tao immediately asked Cai Lu to take out a pen and paper to record.

"Mrs. Li, does this record your name or the name of the Li family?"

Mrs. Li was stunned: "Why remember this?"

Yin Tao said: "We will make a charity list, and all kind-hearted people will be recorded on the list. If you do good deeds, you must leave your name."

"Where is this charity list?" Mrs. Li became a little interested.

"Temporarily put it in the chamber of commerce of the younger generation, and you can come to the chamber of commerce to check it at any time. However, if you have a lot of funds, it is best to set up a special charity association, and assign a special person to be responsible for the charity, and regularly post the donations and usage of the charity association on the charity Outside the gate of the association, for everyone to inquire and supervise, and charitable people who have donated money should also publicize it!"

Mrs. Li sat up straight and said with piercing eyes, "Charity?"

Yin Tao glanced at everyone, saw that everyone's eyes were shining, she hurriedly smiled and said: "Everyone can donate a little money according to their ability, and the charitable affairs will be arranged by the charity association. Donating more or less is kindness. A box of those expensive pastries is worth a lot of money." For a few taels of silver, if we save a box of pastries, we may be able to save a person's life, which is a merit!"

On the surface, it seems that Zhou Xiang is already thinking about it, but in fact, Yin Tao is rushing to this point, and the thinking in her mind is constantly improving.

Yin Tao smiled again and said to Mrs. Wang: "This charity association is set up by our female relatives, why not invite my sister and Miss Wang to manage it together. I wonder if Mrs. Wang would like to make Miss Wang work hard?"

Wang Yuer looked at her mother with sparkling eyes. She had always envied Yin Tao for living so freely. Even when Yin Lan got married, she could go to Xiulou from time to time, but how difficult is it for her as a young lady?

Mrs. Wang didn't pay much attention to this matter, most of it was to save face for Mrs. Lin and Yin Lan.

Wen Yan also said with a smile: "My family also paid 200 taels to support Jinrui's daughter-in-law. My family's Yu'er has already discussed the marriage. I'm afraid I don't have time to get involved in this charity event."

When Wang Yuer heard her mother mentioning marriage, she didn't care about being shy, she pulled her mother's sleeve anxiously and begged: "Mother, my daughter wants to try, please agree!"

Mrs. Wang glared at her daughter: "What a shame to be chattering."

Wang Yu'er had no choice but to let go resentfully, but lowered her head sadly.

Yin Tao smiled and comforted Wang Yuer: "Actually, it doesn't matter. As long as you are a member of the charity association, you can come to play when you are free. Moreover, the charity association will hold some parties regularly, and you still have the opportunity to come out and play."

Mrs. Li smiled and persuaded Mrs. Wang: "This is a good thing to do good deeds. Why do you have to control your daughter so tightly? Yu'er is not married as a clan wife, so how many things can she be busy with?"
