"Then do you know about my engagement with Yu Lang?”Jiao Yue's obsidian-like eyes looked at Tao Yaoyao.
"I just found out." Tao Yaoyao answered honestly.
"Are you happy?"
Jiao Yue stared into her eyes. In the car and out of the car, she felt that Yu Lang's gaze was almost enveloping Tao Yaoyao, as if there was only one person left in the world.
A woman's intuition made her ask.
"I…"
Tao Yaoyao was stumped.
If Yu Lang married Jiao Yue, that would be the best thing. At least she didn't have to worry about what sister-in-law would do to her.
It was only at this moment that she realized that not only was she unhappy, but she also felt a little disappointed.
"You like him too?"
Tao Yaoyao was stunned when she heard this. The word "also" shook her head. JiaoYue liked Yu Lang, so how could she open her mouth? It was better to wait for her brother to worry about it himself.
Only when JiaoYue elbowed her did she react. She carefully considered the meaning of her liking, afraid that it was not as simple as it seemed. She said,"I like him. He's my brother.”
She knew what Jiao Yue meant by 'like', but she felt that it was better to pretend to be confused at this moment. After all, it was useless whether she liked Yu Lang or not.
Jiao Yue looked hurt and said,""Why did they come to my residence to propose marriage?”
Obviously, she had treated Yaoyao's 'like' as her own 'like', so she was a little dissatisfied with being teased.
Tao Yaoyao dug in a mess. She felt that this problem had to be explained, so she whispered,"My brother didn't know that Old Furen came to your residence to propose marriage.”
The bright moon seemed to have been hammered heavily and was silent for a long time.
Yu Lang didn't know? It was the old madam who made the decision on her own.
Now that he knew, he probably wouldn't agree to this marriage…
She remembered the way Yu Lang looked at Yaoyao along the way. Jiao Yue pieced together the truth herself.
Tao Yaoyao took out the wine jar and was on the verge of tears."JiaoYue, I'm sorry…I'm sorry."
She wanted to repeat what Yu Lang said about never marrying her, but she found that she couldn't open her mouth at all.
She also wanted to explain that this had nothing to do with Tao Yaoyao, but how could she convince JiaoYue, how could she not hurt anyone, how could JiaoYue not feel sad? The more nervous Tao Yaoyao was, the more she couldn't think of an excuse.
JiaoYue unexpectedly gave her a punch. What do you mean I'm sorry? Do you think I have to snatch the person you like? Besides, I can still snatch the Prime Minister's residence. Moreover, I know from the way Yu Lang looks at you that he likes you.”
“……”
Heavens, the matter was resolved so smoothly just like that? Yu Lang hadn't even made a move yet.
Tao Yaoyao was overjoyed. She hugged JiaoYue and couldn't help but laugh and cry. She had expected things to be more complicated than this. She had been worried that JiaoYue would be sad and uncomfortable. She was so worried that her internal organs were burning.
Jiao Yue only hugged her heavily and said,""Alright, you're crying and laughing.”
Tao Yaoyao hugged the wine jar and stood up, looking at JiaoYue with endless admiration. This girl who had just suffered a heavy emotional blow was actually not dispirited at all. Her face was a little pale, but her black grape-like eyes were still bright and warm. She couldn't help but praise,"You're really a gentlemanly woman. You're broad-minded and open. If I were a man, I would want to marry you. In the future, whoever is lucky enough to marry you will be a great blessing that has been cultivated for eighteen generations.”
Jiao Yue gave her a kick and said,"You're the one with the sweet mouth." Happy, right? You can be with your sweetheart forever.”
"Go, I don't have a sweetheart."
"Stupid duck. Do you think I won't know if you don't admit it? Why were you crying just now?”
Jiao Yue's expression was as if she had grasped Tao Yaoyao's pigtails. She bit her thin lips and gave him a 'go experience it yourself' look.
Tao Yaoyao didn't know why she was crying. If she wanted to know, it should be because she was moved to tears by Jiao Yue.
In any case, the matter was resolved. JiaoYue did not hate her, her friends were still there, the osmanthus wine was still there, and her brother was still there.
It was perfect.
Tao Yaoyao shoved the wine jar to JiaoYue with her left hand and touched her lips with her right finger. A loud whistle startled the birds in the garden.
Jiao Yue suddenly thought of something and said with a headache,"My cousin must like you too. I can tell.”
When Tao Yaoyao heard this sentence, she found it ridiculous and said,"Please, don't think too much! That's my master!"
"Can't Master like you?”
"Of course not. It was like a respectable elder suddenly having improper thoughts about you, you…Won't you feel uncomfortable?"
Jiao Yue thought about it for a moment before she couldn't stand it anymore and said,""No way! Goosebumps are about to rise."
"A teacher for a day, a father for life. I won't mention this topic in the future. I feel that saying this is blasphemous to Master.”
Tao Yaoyao cut off the conversation. Deep down, she respected Zhao Yujin. Not only did this master teach her many things, but he also treated her like a father and brother. She would feel guilty if she made up stories about him.
The banquet started in Yu Lang's small courtyard. The main course was naturally the cooking of the big kitchen. The happy Tao Yaoyao added icing on the cake and made the first steaming hot pot in this foreign world.
It was the middle of winter, and Tao Yaoyao felt extremely blissful to have such a hot meal with her own osmanthus wine.
She fervently hoped that Mo Xie and Feng Ling could try her hotpot.
Seeing that Tao Yaoyao couldn't forget the two maidservants, Yu Lang ordered the jade carving carriage to pick her up, saying that it was the old madam's intention.”
Mo Xie and Feng Ling came over and hugged Tao Yaoyao, bombarding her with all sorts of nonsense. They didn't say much about being heartless or being ungrateful. In the end, they said,""It's been a few months and you haven't even thought of coming to see us. We don't dare to leave either. You know we can't bear the crime of being escaped slaves.”
Tao Yaoyao really didn't know about this crime. She said,"I missed you guys so much, but I didn't dare to come back. I'm working hard to earn money now. When I save enough money, I'll buy you guys out. We'll never be separated!”
As she said this, her eyes were filled with tears. She suddenly realized that her new life goal was not only to marry a wife for Yu Yao, but also to buy these two sisters. Then, she would have her own family in this world. She would have her worries, responsibilities, love, and a life full of fireworks.
The tears in Tao Yaoyao's eyes made the two of them cry.
Jiao Yue was confused by the box and whispered to Tao Yaoyao,""Tell me honestly, what happened to you? You're just hiding one from me. Do you think I'm your friend?”
The Third Miss of the Prime Minister's Residence didn't dare to return?
If she went back, she would be walking into a trap. Who wanted to capture her? These were really shocking words that came out of nowhere.
Tao Yaoyao lowered her voice and hugged JiaoYue's head, whispering to her for a while, telling her everything from the beginning to the end.
"Drink! Cheers to Yaoyao, who fought for freedom and happiness!”Jiao Yue's eyes lit up as she stood up to encourage everyone.
In her eyes, Tao Yaoyao's actions were heroic and righteous. She was a person who dared to betray her lover.
She automatically interpreted Tao Yaoyao's motive for running away from home to be soul-stirring.
As for freedom and happiness, she had learned them from Tao Yaoyao.
Thus, everyone stood up and drank their first cup of wine that night.
Yu Lang had already dismissed the irrelevant people and ordered that no one was allowed to step foot in the small courtyard tonight. Thus, this group of people was very comfortable.
It was rare for the jade sculpture to have so many people accompanying it, and it was very happy. As half a master, they took care of Moxie and Wind Chimes.
Because of their age, Yu Sheng and Feng Ling had a lot to talk about, while the jade carving and Moxie were more compatible.
Jiao Yue was a girl who was easy to get along with. She was cheerful and magnanimous. She did not hide anything in her heart. She raised her glass to Yu Lang and said,"Yaoyao calls you big brother, so I'll call you big brother too. Yaoyao has already told me that Old Furen did not inform you of her visit to my residence. This matter will be dropped here. I will naturally explain it to Father.”
This Jiao Yue was indeed not simple. Tao Yaoyao saw that she had a righteous look on her face, and there was not the slightest bit of embarrassment on her beautiful face. It was as if it was not a big deal to immediately regret the marriage proposal after being proposed.
In that case, her "also" was probably just a girl's admiration for the handsome hero. In the end, it had not developed any feelings.
Yu Lang looked at this beautiful woman who was like an honest gentleman. As the hot pot steam lingered, her cheeks were filled with clouds, and her obsidian-like eyes were shining.
He stood up and raised his cup." You are indeed as Yaoyao said. You are a rare and extraordinary woman. I am extremely grateful and deeply apologetic."”
The two of them drank up the wine in their cups and smiled at each other.
The jade statue was the longest among the group, and also the most silent. He looked at Moxie more, but he spoke less. He just kept pouring food and wine for her, and the few words he spoke were mostly about saber techniques.
The wind chime was the smallest and the noisiest. She had enough of Yu Sheng, so she asked Tao Yaoyao while eating,""Miss, how long will it take for you to buy us? I can't wait. I miss you so much that I can't sleep. Without you, Jiao Yue and Prince Chen wouldn't have come, the paradise would be too empty.”
"I think you're sleeping like a little pig.”Mo Xie destroyed the stage.
The group of people could not help but laugh.
"Go back and ask the butler how much it costs. Perhaps I have enough."”
"Ah, that's great!" Windling was overjoyed. I'll ask when I get back."
"You don't have to worry about this. I can get Uncle Zhang to settle this matter."”
"Don't, brother. I have to solve this myself. Otherwise, it'll be meaningless.”
Tao Yaoyao raised her glass again and clinked it with Yu Lang, saying,"Thank you!"”
Yu Lang didn't bother to be polite with her. He smiled brightly and raised his hand to drink the wine in his glass."Yaoyao, I'll make more of this wine next year.”
