Daughter Raiders

Chapter 230
Half a month later, it was the time for Mu's house to set up wine.At that time, Mother Yang and Hongxia waited on Tao Ran to dress up, and the three master and servant got into the carriage and headed for the General Military Mansion.

"Yesterday, the old slave sent the little mare to Zhao's mansion for the girl. Mrs. Zhao's face was blackened at that time. If the girl hadn't taught her mother that the horse was not for the girl of the Zhao family, but for the Zhao family. I'm afraid Mrs. Zhao's face will be even more embarrassing. I will see Mrs. Zhao at the General Military Mansion later, so please be careful what you say, Miss Yang." Mother Yang reminded Tao Ran softly in the car.

Although the Zhao family has no official position, they are the local emperors of Liaodong.Who knows if Mrs. Zhao will become angry when my daughter slaps the Zhao family in the face like this?Although her girl is not afraid of the Zhao family, she doesn't bother to find such an opponent for her family. It's fine if she has fought before, and she will get along with her without any grievances afterwards.

"If Mrs. Zhao hadn't asked my mother to bring back a carload of surprise gifts that day, and spread the word so that the entire Liaodong Mansion knew about it, I wouldn't have asked my mother to send me a horse." Tao Ran squinted and smiled.

No one else knew what happened between her and Zhao Hong'er. Mother Yang brought back a large cart full of valuables after only going to Zhao's residence. Wouldn't it be Su Taoran bullying her in the eyes of outsiders?

If she had known that Mrs. Zhao pretended to make an apology to her to scare her away, but in fact acted like this, she should have asked Mama Yang to take that horse to the Zhao Manor to make amends to Zhao Hong'er, so why wait until yesterday to send it off? The flag of the engagement ceremony!
But she didn't have a horse to give to Zhao Hong'er earlier, and the one that Mu Huan sent yesterday was specially brought back for her when Mu Huan came back from his rotation in the army.Wen Tong told Mu Huan the news on the second day after Zhao Hong'er rode his horse and wounded someone. Mu Huan was very worried about her, and even sent a military doctor to Su's house, pretending to show his father whether the arrow wound had fully recovered or not. After seeing her father, he checked her pulse again.

Hearing that the military doctor went back and reported that everything was fine, Mu Huan no longer worried that Tao Ran would be frightened.However, after the day before yesterday, I still made a special trip to see the horse that was given to Zhao Hong'er before asking the servants to send it to the stables in the backyard.

"I already have that little red horse, why did Fourth Brother Mu send me another horse?" Tao Ran asked him with a smile at that time.

Seeing her mischievous and sly smile, Mu Huan knew that she had already understood, but he insisted on asking him again, and he didn't think she was messing around, "You will send someone to send this horse to Zhao's house tomorrow. , Let’s just say it’s a congratulatory gift from you to the girl from the Zhao family. Then ask someone to tell Mrs. Zhao that this horse is very docile, so you don’t have to worry about it getting violent and hurting yourself and others.”

He didn't want to get involved in the fights between women, that kind of fights were both obscure and convoluted, why would he bother with those things as a man, so when he was still in the capital, he seldom went to the back house.

But now that Zhao Hong'er is bullying Tao Ran, and Mrs. Zhao is bullying Tao Ran because she is young, pretending to make an apology but actually trying to create a public opinion that the girl from the Su family is bullying others, this is really intolerable!Besides, there is Mu Zhen's shadow in this matter from beginning to end, how can he remain indifferent?

Listening to the carriage briskly moving forward, Tao Ran slowly pulled back her thoughts - what about Zhao Honger, Mrs. Zhao, she wasn't afraid at all, not to mention that Mu Huan was willing to be her strong backing!If you really want to marry him in the future, right now you should join hands with him and use the Zhao family's mother and daughter to practice your skills. In the future, you can manage the back house of the Marquis of Zhenbei for him and open up a clean land for yourself!
Seeing that Tao Ran was clearly confident and didn't need her to ask too much, Mama Yang was relieved.But thinking of Zhao Hong'er's violent temper, Yang's mother was worried about Tao Ran's future.

"That's all in the future. It's too early to worry about it now. Mom, you just listen to me. It's true to live every day in front of you first." Tao Ran comforted Yang's mother with a smile. He also drove into the big alley of the General Military Mansion, and slowly entered the side gate of the General Military Mansion.

After all, it's just a bastard's engagement, and the woman's family has no official or job, such a good day is just a side door!Mother Yang curled her lips and sneered for a moment, then she and Hongxia helped Tao Ran get out of the car.

"It's really strange to say that the custom in Liaodong is that a banquet is held after an engagement is made." Mother Yang muttered in a low voice.Although getting engaged is also a happy event, but if one day it doesn't work out and the engagement is withdrawn, how can the girl survive?
Tao Ran smiled and said nothing, but he said in his heart that this is not the custom of Liaodong, this is the wife of Zhenbeihou who wants to implement this marriage, so that the old wife of Zhenbeihou in the capital, Mrs. Deng, can no longer interfere.

One must know that the General Military Mansion has arranged a big banquet for this marriage in Liaodong, no matter what means Deng uses, it is difficult to deny this relative, isn't it?After today's dinner, Zhao Hong'er is definitely Mu Zhen's wife, if she doesn't admit it, she will kill her...

In addition, there may be the meaning of Zhenbeihou here. This is to take advantage of the opportunity of the banquet to put the city lord Zhao Jiashi in the position of in-laws. It's difficult—since the Zhao family married their daughter to the General Military Mansion, they are grasshoppers on a rope, and there is no way to repent.

Afterwards, Tao Ran's master and servant also arrived in front of the hanging flower gate of the back house.Sister Mu Yun and Mu Lei were accompanying Mrs. Zhenbeihou to welcome the guests. Seeing her coming and greeting each other, Mrs. Hu told Mu Lei, "You can accompany Sister Tao to the flower hall, you are not needed here."

"Mother is really crossing the river and tearing down the bridge." Although Mu Lei was very eager, she still did not forget to play coquettishly, and got a laugh from Hu Shi, and went to the flower hall with Tao Ran on her arm.

"Several ladies have come to the flower hall, and you are familiar with them. When you get there, don't forget to greet me and share my worries." Mu Lei begged Tao Ran almost rascally.

"Since I'm familiar with her, I don't count as greeting Sister Lei. It's my duty to chat with the wives and girls." Tao Ran accepted the order happily.

Ever since she arrived in Liaodong, she has never lost contact with the female relatives. Although Liaodong is not as good as the capital, going out to socialize can open her eyes and ideas. In the previous life, she suffered from bad communication. How can she go back to the old way in this life? .

Daddy will be working abroad for three years next year, even if he can't be transferred back to the capital, he will return to Beijing to report on his work in the spring.When she goes back with her, grandma will definitely not let her out again. If she doesn't take advantage of being able to be alone now, she will have a lot of training, and there will be no such good opportunities in the future.

Thinking all the way, Tao Ran followed Mu Lei into the flower hall where the female relatives were entertained in the back house.As soon as he entered the door, he saw Bai Tongzhi's wife and two girls sitting in the hall, Jiao Tongpan's wife, Shan Tongzhi's wife, three girls from the Shan family, and several wives of generals, hurriedly came forward to say hello to each other. .

"Oh, Miss Su is here. I told the wives just now that we should congratulate Miss Su when Miss Su comes!" Mrs. Bai Tongzhi stood up and took Tao Ran's arm, and said this with a smile.
