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

Chapter 41 Liberation

"You want to settle the score with the eighth brother? What kind of score?" A cold voice came from behind Tao Mo.

Turning his head slowly as if rusted, Tao Mo seemed to hear the sound of "Kazi Kazi" when he turned his head.

The visitor stood at the door, and the sunlight outside the house pierced through the large clouds and shone obliquely on his body. Against the light, Tao Mo couldn't see his elder brother's expression clearly, but it didn't affect her awe of him in the slightest!
"Big, big brother!"

"Hmph!" Tao Yuanxi flicked his sleeves, entered the room and sat down, and then said slowly, "You still know that we are your elder brothers!"

Tao Mo obsequiously walked up to Tao Yuanxi, poured him a cup of tea courteously, "What did the elder brother say, I have always respected my elder brothers very much, little sister!"

"Respect?" looked Tao Mo suspiciously up and down, and said with a final word: "False words!"

Wiping the non-existing tears from the corners of his eyes, Tao Mo said with aggrieved face: "Brother! You don't believe me! Woooooo... I respect my elder brothers so much, woooo... Unexpectedly, I was Brother, you are so suspicious! Huh..."

"Hey—" With a long sigh, Tao Yuanxi rubbed his forehead, "Okay, I believe you, let's go!"

Changing his face in a second, Tao Mo immediately raised a smile, sat beside Tao Yuanxi with a smile, and said, "Hehe, I know that big brother is the best!"

Then, he looked at Tao Yuanxi suspiciously, and asked, "But, brother, why did you think of coming to Yiranju today?"

It's not that Tao Yuanxi doesn't care about Tao Mo, but that he has to deal with the family business and is often so busy that he doesn't have time to visit Tao Mo.

He patted Tao Mo's head, "I heard a servant report that you want to leave the mansion?"

Tao Mo's eyes lit up, he grabbed Tao Yuanxi's sleeve fawningly, and said, "That's right, big brother is here to take me out of the house?"

"Crack!" Tao Yuanxi patted Tao Mo's forehead, and made a crisp hitting sound, "It's a good idea!"

Cursing his lips, Tao Mo shook off Tao Yuanxi's sleeves in disgust, and asked lazily, "Then what's the big brother here for?"

Tao Yuanxi couldn't help but look at his sleeves that Tao Mo disliked, and stretched out his hands to smooth out the wrinkles, "Father said, the reason why you want to go out and mess around all day is because you have nothing to do in the mansion."

Tao Mo retorted dissatisfiedly, "I didn't mess around!"

Glancing, seeing Tao Moyan go down and quiet, he opened his mouth in satisfaction, and continued: "In order for you to stay in the mansion with peace of mind and wait to get married, father thought of a way and found some things for you to do."

Tao Mo pointed to his nose, and asked suspiciously, "Give it to me? Looking for something to do?"

"That's right!" Nodding his head, Tao Yuanxi ordered outside the door: "Come in!"

Tao Mo looked at the door suspiciously, and a woman in her thirties came slowly behind the door. She was wearing a chest-length skirt. People ignore the original fabric of the skirt.

The woman walked to the front of the hall, clasped her fingers together, put them on her left waist, bent her legs, and saluted Tao Mo, "I beg you, I have met Miss Tao Shi."

Tao Mo has always been careless, and he is not too cold about these etiquettes. When he suddenly encountered such a gentle woman who seemed to have stepped off a picture of a lady, he didn't know how to react. When she recovered, she was already standing In front of Qi Qiao, she reached out to help Qi Qiao up.

Tao Mo looked at Qi Qiao, pursed his lips, and said, "Sister Qi Qiao, don't be too polite."

Turning around to look at Tao Yuanxi, who was sitting on the chair, drinking tea calmly, and asked, "Brother, sister Qiqiao is...?"

"The maidservant is the embroiderer of Jinxiufang, entrusted by the Eldest Young Master, to instruct Miss Ten to embroider purses these days."

Tao Mo of Jinxiufang has heard that it is the largest and best embroidery workshop in the capital, the embroiderers there are very skillful, and the clothes of Jinxiufang are even favored by ladies in the palace.

but……

"Embroidered purse?" Tao Mo exclaimed in disbelief, "Brother, did you make a mistake?! Why do I still need to embroider a purse!"

Tao Yuanxi held the teacup, brushed the tea leaves floating on the surface of the tea with the tea lid, and took a sip of the tea, "Father said, you are giving this to the Seventh Prince, and you must not pass it on to others."

Tao Mo sat down on the chair speechlessly, "What on earth is Dad thinking?! With my level, can I deliver it?"

"That's why," Tao Yuanxi glanced at Tao Mo, "that's why I found the best embroiderer to teach you."

"..." Don't think I didn't see the contempt you gave me just now!If not...if not...

Tao Mo stared at Tao Yuanxi viciously, but when the other party looked over, he instantly turned into a low-browed and pleasing expression.

Woohoo, it seems that there is still a long way to go before I can successfully bully my elder brother!
Tao Yuanxi looked at Tao Mo's rich facial expressions amusedly, what this silly sister was thinking could be seen on her face at a glance!

"It's better to hold Buddha's feet temporarily than to do nothing well," Tao Yuanxi got up, straightened his clothes, and walked out the door, "In the past few days, you should stay at home and learn how to embroider purses with Qi Qiaohaosheng."

"Don't think about sneaking around!" He gave Tao Mo a warning look, "I'll send people to watch every exit in the mansion, if I find you sneaking out of the mansion to fool around again, I will definitely interrupt you this time." leg!"

Tao Mo wailed, "Brother——"

"This time, it's useless even if you call me a mother!"

Pouting his lips, Tao Mo knew in his heart that the elder brother was serious this time, so he reluctantly responded, "I know, I know, I will learn from Qiqiao well."

He patted Tao Mo's hair, but she slapped his arm away in anger. Tao Yuanxi looked at her helplessly, and sighed: "Hey, you have such a temper!"

"I still have some things to deal with, so I won't stay any longer, you can live in peace in the mansion!"

Tao Mo sent Tao Yuanxi to the entrance of the courtyard, and muttered: "I know, I know, brother, you are really getting more and more verbose!"

Reluctantly poking Tao Mo's forehead, Tao Yuanxi turned around and walked out of Yiranju. After a while, his figure disappeared into the woods.

As soon as Tao Yuanxi's figure disappeared, Tao Mo came alive and stretched happily. Tao Mo sighed comfortably, "Hey - liberated!"

"Little Red! Little Green! Come out quickly, let's bask in the sun together!" Tao Mo poked his head, calling the two maidservants in the house from the yard.

Xiao Hong looked embarrassed in the room, looking at Qi Qiao who was still standing in the hall with some embarrassment.

"Madam, please sit down, this servant will let someone prepare tea for you. Xiao Hong! What are you still doing in a daze? Why don't you hurry up and make tea for Mrs. Qi Qiao!" Still, Xiao Lu was more clever, she looked at Qi Qiao's bun, Lead him to the chair and sit down, secretly winking at Xiaohong, asking her to remind the young lady outside the house.

"Ah? Oh! That's right, this servant is negligent, Madam, wait a moment, this servant will go get ready." As expected of being by Tao Mo's side since she was a child, Xiaohong immediately understood what Xiaolu meant, and hurriedly mentioned it. The teapot ran out and handed over the house to the eloquent little green.

As soon as Xiaohong came out of the yard, she saw Tao Mo lying on a soft bed specially placed under a big locust tree. On weekdays, Tao Mo likes to lie on it most for lunch.

Xiaohong handed the teapot in her hand to the maids standing by, and told them to prepare tea, then she walked towards Ruan, with a face full of tears, "Miss, are you ready to sleep here like this?"

Tao Mo leisurely took a pear from the low table beside him, wiped it casually, and began to eat it. While eating, he asked in puzzlement, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

"Miss! The Mrs. Qiqiao brought by the eldest son is still waiting in the room!" Xiao Hong almost knelt down to her miss, since the eldest son has issued an ultimatum, only her miss can be so leisurely!
Tao Mo waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "Oh, that's okay, isn't there still so many days?"

"But, the eldest son said..."

"Don't worry, when the time comes, you can tell my brother that I will concentrate on learning embroidery in the yard soon," Tao Mo said with a nonchalant expression, "As long as the people in our yard don't tell me, big brother will take care of everything every day. They don’t come to my yard at all on weekdays, so how would they know?”

"But..." Xiaohong wanted to say something, but was interrupted by a soft voice.

"Since Miss Ten doesn't want to learn embroidery with her servant, this servant has no choice but to go to the eldest son to complain. It's because of her incompetence that there is no way to make Miss Ten interested in embroidery."

Tao Mo finished "swish", squinted his eyes, looked at Qi Qiao who was standing at the entrance of the front hall, and said coldly, "I thought you had a soft personality, but I didn't expect you to have a needle hidden in the cotton!"

Qi Qiao slowly approached where Tao Mo was, followed by Xiao Lu who looked hesitant.

"Miss Ten has won the award," Rourou smiled, "The servant girl is just telling the truth. What's more, since I am paid by the Tao Mansion, I must do what I should do well. "

Tao Mo looked up and down Qi Qiao, who seemed to be indifferent, "I just smiled at you."

"Miss..." Xiaolu walked to Tao Mo's side and looked at her worriedly.

Tao Mo ignored Xiaolu, still staring at Qiqiao who had already walked in front of her, "So, are you threatening me now?"

Begging Qiao Yingying to bow, every move has charm, "What did the tenth miss say, a servant girl is a embroiderer, how dare you threaten the dignified Tao Mansion tenth miss?"

"Hmph!" Tao Mo snorted coldly, got up and walked quickly into the house, "You don't look like you dare!"

"Xiao Hong! Go and get me the tools for embroidering purses!"

When the crisis is over, there is no need to worry about the conflict between Tao Mo and the embroidered lady brought by the eldest son. "

Xiaolu bowed to Qiqiao, and said softly: "Madam, please, our young lady should be waiting in the side room."

Qiqiao followed Xiaolu into the house, her drooping head made it difficult to see her expression clearly.
