Chapter 2493 Return to Tianyun (59)
"Then you still want to take the exam?!" Tao Chengyin was still not satisfied with Su Xin's taking the exam. First, he thought Su Xin would not pass, and second, he thought Su Xin should focus on taking care of his sick eldest son.
Su Xin said with a playful smile: "Give it a try, maybe you can pass. Dad has always looked down on me. If I really pass the exam and become a martial arts scholar, even if it's just a small scholar, Dad should be more satisfied with me as his daughter-in-law."
Tao Chengyin felt very relieved when he heard this. His daughter-in-law was trying to win his approval. But: "As long as you treat Ye'er well, Ye'er will be fine, and you don't need to take any exams, I will naturally look up to you."
"Dad" Tao Mingye was helpless, "Xin'er is not good enough to me?"
Tao Chengyin immediately scolded: "Since you got married and had this daughter-in-law, you have become more and more disobedient! You used to listen to everything I said, but now you only protect your daughter-in-law! How come I, as a father-in-law, can't say a word to her?!"
Tao Mingye was even more helpless and found it funny.
Su Xin also found it funny.
Tao Chengyin scolded him twice more before he stopped, and warned him, "The 30th is the day your second brother will marry Banyan. You are not in good health, so you don't need to come out to help that day. Just stay in your own courtyard and take good care of yourself."
Tao Mingye nodded and asked gently, "What about Xin'er?"
Tao Chengyin said, "It stands to reason that as the eldest sister-in-law, she should help with the arrangements that day. However, the Marquis's family knows that she was originally going to marry your second brother, so she doesn't need to help. Just stay with you in the courtyard to avoid the embarrassment of the people from the Marquis's mansion who see her when she gets married."
Su Xin smiled and said, "It just so happens that I don't want to help with the arrangements."
Seeing that Su Xin was frank and hadn't said anything to hurt him, Tao Chengyin felt relieved but also a little puzzled. His eldest daughter-in-law's attitude towards him seemed to have changed, as if she really regarded him as her father-in-law.
Thinking that this was a good thing, after all, a harmonious family is the key to success, Tao Chengyin smiled: "It's all right, you can go back."
"Dad, then we'll go back." Tao Mingye was helped up by Su Xin, and the two walked out.
The results of the child exam will not be released until mid-July, but Tao Minghai and Wan Banyan will get married on June 30th.
On the day of Tao Minghai's wedding, the weather was quite hot. Su Xin was too lazy to care about the excitement in the front yard, and she cooked in the small kitchen in her yard and made a lot of cold noodles.
The cold noodles were added with vinegar and chilled, which was very appetizing and refreshing. Tao Mingye, who usually ate very little, ate a bowl of it. Su Xin was very happy watching.
There were still a lot of cold noodles, so Su Xin gave them to the servants in her yard. The servants liked them very much and ate them all.
The next day, Wan Banyan, the new daughter-in-law, offered tea to Tao Chengyin and Cao. Tao Mingye and Su Xin, as the eldest son and sister-in-law, had to be present.
Wan Banyan looks OK, especially her frame, which is very petite. Standing next to the muscular Tao Minghai, she looks even petite. From behind, they look like an adult and a child standing together.
Seeing Su Xin coming, Wan Banyan glanced at Su Xin with contempt.
Su Xin saw it, but was too lazy to pay attention to Wan Banyan. But she knew what it meant to be like-minded. Tao Minghai was the kind of person who looked down on others, and so was Wan Banyan.
Except for Tao Chengyin, Cao, and Tao Chengyin's concubines, no one else was sitting in the hall.
