Daughter Raiders

Chapter 59 Victory
"Sister Tao can't bear to part with Daddy." In the small study of the third room, Tao Ran hugged Su Hao's neck and leaned on his shoulder, crying with tears.

Su Hao was also heartbroken.If Sister Tao was a boy, it would be fine if he took her to Liaodong Mansion this time, but she is a delicate little girl after all, so how could she suffer that kind of hardship.

Fortunately, he has promised Yushi to take her away, and Tao will at least not have to be angry with Yushi during the three years she stays at home.

"Okay, okay, Sister Tao will stop crying. Daddy seals it on the 22nd of the twelfth lunar month every year, and it will be opened on the tenth day of the first month of the next year. Maybe he can come back to see you as soon as possible." Su Hao comforted his daughter softly.

"Your grandparents are getting older, and brother Cen is also at home. Daddy expects sister Tao to take care of him, right?"

"Daddy is a liar." Tao Ran wiped away his tears, "The yamen was only sealed on the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, and the seal was opened on the seventh day of the first lunar month. How could it be as long as what Daddy said. Go back to the capital from Liaodong Mansion as quickly as possible. Five or six days, don't tell me daddy will leave after two or three days after he comes back, his body will not be able to bear it!"

Su Hao laughed.How does this kid know everything?It seems that asking her to live with her old mother in Pine Age Hall is really a good decision.

"Daddy, don't worry, go to Liaodong. Daddy has been an official for the past three years, so he can be transferred back to the capital as soon as possible. Sister Tao will be obedient at home, and take good care of my grandparents and my sixth brother for my father." Tao Ran wiped his face again. Tears, choked with promises.

Daddy will leave early tomorrow morning, and the dinner later will be a farewell banquet prepared by grandma for Daddy. If she continues to cry like this, both father and daughter will have to go to the banquet with sad faces, and it will not look good .

"Daddy's outer study has two bookboys, one named Qingfeng is left for brother Cen, and there is a little girl named Suxue in the inner study who has nowhere to go, so Daddy left her to you. Suxue's old man She is the steward of the outer courtyard, and my elder brother is the porter, if there is something missing or needs to be bought, you can ask her to go, or you can ask her to find Qingfeng for you, it's the same." Su Hao explained to Tao Ran in a deep voice.

Seeing Tao Ran nod his head slightly, Su Hao stuffed a small pouch that he had prepared earlier into his daughter's hand.

There are three 100 taels of silver bills in the small lotus bag, so leave it to your daughter for emergencies.Although the daughter lives in Pine Age Hall and is looked after by an old mother, the mother is old after all, and it is possible for her to be negligent occasionally. If the money in the hands of the daughter is not enough to spend, he will be beyond reach in Liaodong Mansion.

"Why did Daddy give Sister Tao so much money?" Tao Ran opened his purse and was surprised: "Sister Tao hasn't touched the monthly records since she arrived at Pine Age Hall, and there is no need for Daddy to leave money for Sister Tao. Daddy still Give these silver coins to Brother Cen."

Su Hao was moved in his heart.He was afraid that his old mother would be negligent, but it seemed that his daughter was taken care of very well by her mother, she didn't lack anything, and she knew how to care about others.

"Your sixth brother has it, and daddy also left it for him, and asked Aunt Ma to keep it for him." Su Hao took the purse again, folded it a few times, and stuffed it into the sachet on his daughter's waist.

In the past few days, Mrs. Yu has always called Yanran to go to the main room. The mother and daughter leaned their heads against each other and murmured, leaving no less money for Yanran, but she forgot that she also had a young daughter who needed her instructions; Since he has forgotten, there is still him, and he can make up for what a mother should do.

"After Daddy leaves, you can't lose your calligraphy and painting homework." Su Hao pointed to the note in the study, "Daddy has already made several big red tracing books for you, you must remember to trace three reds every day." Big characters, ask Suxue to follow you later, and ask her to keep these notebooks and stationery for you."

"Ever since you started enlightenment with your father, you always like to take paper to write and draw by yourself, but you don't know that you have to start with tracing red first, and practice the fonts to make it look good."

Only then did Tao Ran understand that her father asked Su Xue to follow her to run errands for her, and clearly asked Su Xue to urge her to do her homework; then she nodded with a smile and said, "Sister Tao listens to my father and writes at least three articles every day." Big characters, when daddy said that I can write by myself, I will write by myself again."

"After a few days, the gentlemen will come, and it's time for Miss Tao to go to class. Let Suxue accompany me to the Tixiang Pavilion every day."

After all, the two little girls, July and Eighth Day, are only seven years old. It would be inappropriate to ask one of them to accompany her to class. Suxue is eleven years old this year, and she went out of her father's inner study to help her go to school. No need to study now.

As for drawing red... just draw it.Although she was good at Mrs. Wei's small script in her previous life, she also practiced it from big characters. Now her father has carefully made a few tracing books for her. Maybe she can learn a few more fonts. It's time to play.

The father and daughter bid farewell to each other for a while, and it was almost time for dinner.Calling Xianyun to fetch water, Su Hao helped his daughter wash her hands and face, and asked Su Xue to follow her with a small basket filled with stationery, and they went to Pine Age Hall together.

At this time, Mrs. Yu had brought Yanran to sit in the west room of the Pine Age Hall. Seeing Su Hao and Tao Ran's father and daughter come in, she hurriedly stood up to greet Su Hao. Hao Dandan called Tao Ran, and the father and son talked in the small study all afternoon, while Yan Ran was envious and jealous for a while, and felt that her mother's care was always more thoughtful than her father's, so she felt more comfortable.

"Are you acting coquettish with your father again? Look at the crying eyes, like a red-eyed rabbit." The old lady called Tao Ran distressedly, took her little hand and asked with a smile.

Tao Ran smiled embarrassedly, and the newly replaced front teeth were as white as shellfish.

The old lady sighed silently.

It's not the mother who loves her daughter dearly, but when it comes to Sister Tao, the father has to take on the mother's errands; fortunately, the youngest couple have left together this time, leaving Sister Yan and Sister Tao at home, which saves money. What's not fair.

The dinner party was still held in the large flower hall at the head of the Songling Hall, and even Grandma Chen and Grandma Yuan, who were about to give birth, also came—it was a big event to send the third uncle away from Beijing to Liaodong Mansion, this kind of scene If you don't come, you will embarrass your mother-in-law and husband-in-law.

Seeing this, Mrs. Yu laughed more happily, and became more affectionate to the two nieces and daughters-in-law than usual. She also asked Mama Fan to give the gift she had prepared long ago to the two of them face to face, and kept saying sorry, saying yes This time I walked away but I couldn't see the birth of two little grandchildren...

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Mrs. Yu turned her head and glanced at the second wife again, feeling refreshed in her heart.

Thinking back when she got the news that the second master was going to work in Chengdu Mansion and the second wife could follow her, she secretly felt a lot of sulking, but now, the second wife has to stay at home to take care of Brother Yuan and his daughter-in-law, but she will be able to follow the master tomorrow morning I'm leaving!
So speaking of being a human being, you can't admit defeat early. It's really uncertain who will have the last laugh!Yu thought with a smile.
