The gambling concubine has an appointment, the prince will come again

Chapter 40 Preparation
"I think there must be some unknown secret about Situ Yin's entanglement with Little Moer at this time!" Tao Yuanhe is the person who knows Situ Yin best among them, so what he said, everyone I can't help but believe a little more.

"However, it's impossible for the Seventh Prince to grab that position, and our Tao family has nothing to help him. Why does the Seventh Prince have any reason to pester the younger sister?" Tao Yuanyi asked a question.

Tao Ran picked up the teacup, blew on it, and took a sip, "You all forgot? The Seventh Prince and Mo'er are engaged."

"!" The words awakened the people in the dream. They had been guessing the purpose of Situ Yin's entry into the Tao Mansion before, but they forgot the most direct reason, and that was - Tao Mo!
Thinking about it now, when Tao Mo met Situ Yin, not long after they learned that Shengshang intended to marry the Tao family, Tao Mo was entangled by Situ Yin. "Tao Mansion also had some conflicts with Jinshang, but for some unknown reason, it was settled.

Thinking of the relationship between the prince and Situ Yin, and Situ Yin's contact with Tao Mo, it is not difficult to guess why the prince gave up his plea.

"So, the Seventh Prince voluntarily came to our Tao family to be his son-in-law?" Tao Yuanzhi whispered in disbelief.

Tao Yuanming, who had been silent all this time, expressed his opinion, "Not all."

Seeing everyone looking at him one after another, he paused, and continued: "Situ Yin's stubborn illness requires a lot of precious medicinal materials."

The smarter ones immediately understood Tao Yuanming's implication, and his complexion suddenly turned sour. After all, no matter who it is, it feels very bad to be treated as a bargaining chip by someone else who you love!

"What does Situ Yin's contact with Little Mo'er have to do with his stubborn illness!" Tao Yuanren has always been a straightforward person, and he didn't understand these twists and turns, so he directly yelled for them to explain.

Tao Yuanhe gave him a contemptuous look, but still kindly explained: "Situ Yin needs countless precious medicinal materials to control his illness, and in this world, besides our Tao family, how many people are there?" Can people afford it?"

"Ah!" Tao Yuanren slapped the table and got up angrily, "What does Situ Yin think of my little Mo'er?!"

Tao Yuanbin was sitting next to Tao Yuanren, and was really taken aback by his actions. Seeing this, Tao Yuanming stabbed Tao Yuanren, "Do it!"

Tao Yuanren glanced at him and said awkwardly, "I know, I got it."

"The marriage between Situ Yin and Mo'er has been decided. If these medicinal materials can be used, it will be better for him to treat Mo'er, and it will be worth it." Tao Ran said leisurely.

"Father is right," Tao Yuanxi nodded in agreement, "Anyway, Situ Yin married into our house, even if he has other plans, we won't let Mo'er suffer."

"Does Mo'er know his identity?" Tao Yuanqing turned around and asked Tao Yuanqing.

Shaking her head, "Little Mo'er probably didn't notice, she always thought that Situ Yin was the butler of the casino."

The corner of his mouth curled up into a smile of unknown meaning, "Heh~ I hope that Situ Yin can withstand my little sister's tricks by then!"

A group of people suddenly thought of Tao Mo's previous methods of punishing them, trembled unconsciously, and silently lit a row of candles for Situ Yin in their hearts.

"Ahem," Tao Ran attracted the attention of his sons, "Leave aside Situ Yin's purpose for now, the most important thing now is Mo'er's wedding! There are less than ten days left, my Tao family When my daughter gets married, she must do it in a splendid manner!"

"All the items needed for the wedding have been prepared. I have ordered them to go down and send someone to take care of them."

Nodding his head, Tao Ran ordered: "Well, let the people below be more careful. Also, the layout of the house has to be arranged, so as not to panic."

"My son knows." Tao Yuanxi agreed.

Turning to look at the other sons, "Have you selected the mansion for Mo'er?"

"It's been chosen a long time ago," said Tao Yuanhe, "on the South Street side, the house is quite big, and the layout is not bad, but it's a bit old, but I've already hired someone to renovate the house, and Tao's house is just two streets away, so it's convenient for parents to visit my younger sister in the future."

"Okay, well done." Tao Ran nodded in praise.

"Your mother and I have prepared some dowry for Mo'er. When the time comes, you can see if you want to add something else, um... On the day of the wedding, let someone send the dowry to the newly built house."

Tao Yuanqing was in charge of picking up and dropping off the wedding. Hearing this, he nodded to Tao Ran and said, "Yes, we will look at the purchase."

"And the wedding dress..." Tao Ran pondered.

Tao Yuanren couldn't bear his temper and interrupted, "Father, we have already invited the best embroiderer in the capital to work overtime to make the wedding dress, so that it is exquisite and beautiful!"

"Well, look at Mo'er these few days, don't take her out to mess around anymore!" As he said, he turned his head and glared at Tao Yuanhe, "Especially you, if you secretly take your sister out of the house again, you will be dealt with according to the family law." !"

Tao Yuanhe, who was under special care, almost swore to heaven, "Father, don't worry, I will never take little Mo'er out of the house again!"

After staring at him for a while, Tao Ran finally decided to believe him once, "Yuanxi, take an embroiderer to your sister tomorrow, and ask Mo'er to embroider the purse for the Seventh Prince within a few days!"

Tao Yuanxi was taken aback, and asked hesitantly, "Father, are you sure you want Mo'er to embroider the purse yourself?"

Tao Ran paused, took a sip of tea from his teacup, and said firmly, "Let Moer embroider by himself!"

"Father, at the level of my younger sister, it's better not to embarrass yourself!" Tao Yuanren said bluffing.

He glared at Tao Yuanren, "Did you say that about your sister?!" After a pause, he continued, "No matter how skilled Moer is, she has to make this purse herself."

"Tch, that bastard Situ Yin treats my little sister like this, why should my little sister embroider his purse herself?" Tao Yuanshu muttered dissatisfied.

Tao Ran put the teacup on the table, "Okay, this matter is settled!"

"In the past few days, you must take Mo'er seriously, and you must not let her leave the house again!" Tao Ran got up and walked out, "Before marriage, if you can prevent her from meeting the Seventh Prince, try to avoid it."

A group of people suddenly became serious, and they all stood up and said goodbye: "Understood, don't worry, father."

"Well, you have always known how to measure."

Tao Ran asked the boy to light the lamp, and led him to the side room of the study, where he usually goes to bed after working late, "It's getting late, there are still many things to do tomorrow, you should go back to your room early to rest. "

"Father, go slowly, son will leave first." Several people bid farewell to Tao Ran one after another, and went back to their rooms to rest.

The next day was clear and sunny, and Tao Mo slept until the sun was shining. When he woke up, he wanted to take the two maids out for a stroll, but was told by the doorman, she!quilt!ban!Enough!

After hearing the news from the doorman, Tao Mo returned to Yiranju full of anger.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!" He rubbed his hair frantically, making his black hair look like a chicken coop, "Daddy actually grounded me!"

"Xiaolu, tell me, did I sneak out of the house last night and was discovered by my father?"

Xiaolu pulled Tao Mo to the dressing table, and carefully combed her hair, "Master didn't send anyone to look for Miss yesterday, so logically, he shouldn't have found it."

Tao Mo sat on the stool in an orderly manner, and let Xiaolu rub her head. With a bitter face, he complained: "Mynah must be careless, let daddy see it! This time, before I got married Don't even leave the house!"

"The eighth son is careful, so he shouldn't show his flaws." Xiaohong brought the brewed tea to Tao Mo, and stood aside and said.

Tao Mo's eyes lit up, "By the way, we can sneak out through the back door!" He patted Xiao Lu who was still arranging his hair, and urged: "Xiao Lu, hurry up, we will sneak out through the back door later." Sneak out of the house to play!"

Xiao Hong said coolly at the side, "Miss, let's give up."

"What's wrong?" He looked at her puzzled.

"When I went to the back kitchen to boil water, I saw the servants of the mansion go to the backyard. I was curious, so I asked someone to ask, and then I found out that the master sent them to guard the back door."

"... Ah! It hurts!" Tao Mo stood up excitedly, but he didn't want to pull the hair that was still in Xiaolu's hand, and the pain caused her to bend over.

Xiaolu quickly put down the blue silk in her hand, approached Tao Mo with concern, and asked anxiously: "Miss, are you alright? This servant didn't do it on purpose, you..."

"Okay, okay, I'm fine, don't blame yourself." Tao Mo interrupted Xiao Lu, stood up straight, turned to face Xiao Hong, and asked, "Xiao Hong, you just said that Dad sent someone to the back door Guarded?!"

"Exactly!"

Tao Mo didn't care about the hair style anymore, he kept walking up and down the room, "No, the back door is usually not guarded. Could it be that Dad is determined to trap me in the mansion this time?"

"If it was just a matter of sneaking out yesterday, Dad would not have done such a terrible thing. Could it be that something happened that I don't know about?"

"Xiaohong, have you heard any other news?"

Xiaohong lowered her head and said respectfully: "I just heard that after the eighth son returned to the mansion last night, the master called several other sons to have a secret talk in the study room, and told the servants in the mansion to take good care of you, young lady, early this morning. , you are not allowed to leave the house."

Tao Mo thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and called out a person's name: "Tao! Far! He!"

"Mynah must have complained first and said something to my father before I was grounded! Xiaohong, let's go! Follow me to find mynah and ask for an explanation!"

Xiao Hong hesitated, "Miss, is it okay? What if it's not Hachiko?"

"Hmph!" Tao Mo thought about her threat to Tao Yuanhe last night, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Tao Yuanhe said something to Tao Ran that caused her to be grounded, so he couldn't help but snort coldly.

"Aside from Tao Yuanhe, who else can complain to Dad?!"

"Xiaohong, hurry up, bring my equipment, and let's go and settle accounts with mynah!" Seeing Xiaohong standing still, Tao Mo urged anxiously.
