Everyone present was smart, and they said, "On the way, we'll be there soon.", "Yes, old lady, how could Qingqing forget you?", "Qingqing is in college, right? Do you have a boyfriend?"...

The topic turned to Tao Qing, and everyone present was much more enthusiastic than before, trying to find out about her conditions, and Old Lady Tao agreed a little more.

Ruan Xian and her daughter could feel the subtle difference immediately, and it was like a joke before.

Tao Ruoming clenched her hands and gritted her teeth.

"Qingqing won't get married so early, I still want her to accompany me for a few years." Old Lady Tao spoke, and the protection in her words was obvious.

A group of people were chatting enthusiastically again, and after waiting for a long time, Tao Qing hadn't arrived yet.

Old Lady Tao's eyes were obviously dim.

"Grandma, maybe she's busy. Qingqing has been...very busy lately." Tao Ruoming comforted softly, "Maybe there's something wrong, otherwise she wouldn't have come to see you."

She paused for a while, and spoke hesitantly, as if she knew what the other person was busy with, and seemed helpless.

This makes people think too much. Mrs. Tao is waiting, and she didn't come back without a phone call, which makes people feel a little immature.

"Mom, cut the cake first, don't worry about her." Tao Rong said to her, and as soon as the voice fell, he asked someone to prepare it.

Mrs. Tao didn't answer, which was also considered as tacit agreement, just looking at the door for a long time.

A group of people surrounded her, and Mrs. Tao also forced a smile on her face. When Mr. Tao came down and saw that Tao Qing was not there, he said to Tao Rong sternly, "Call her right now, I want to ask her what she is doing!"

Tao Qing has been causing a lot of trouble recently, and his patience is limited. This matter is too much.

"Dad, I'll go call her now." Tao Rong walked out and came back after a while, whispering, "No one answered."

This time, no one really answered.

The old man was angry, and he had to call.

With so many people here today, Mr. Tao naturally knew that family disgrace should not be made public, and he resisted the urge to say anything, but his heart was already extremely cold towards Tao Qing.

Mrs. Tao also gave up, and couldn't waste time like this, so she prepared to cut the cake.

Tao Ruoming and Ruan Xian were with her, and they were so filial that everyone envied them.

Just as Mrs. Tao picked up the knife, Tao Ruoming smiled happily and was about to greet the guests, when a sweet cry came from the door, "Grandma..."

Mrs. Tao stopped moving immediately and looked at the door.

The girl had long, smooth hair and beautiful eyes. She was wearing a long, off-shoulder dress that was slim and fitted. Her figure was curvy but not too revealing. She walked in, looked around, and said apologetically, "Am I late? Sorry."

Walking to Old Lady Tao, she reached out and hugged her, "Happy birthday, Grandma."

"You still remember to come back?" Old Lady Tao glared at her, smiling more. She was so satisfied with her look that she even commented, "This dress is nice."

She held her arm, her eyes curved, a little childish, "Isn't it nice? It took me a long time to choose. I also brought you a gift. I'll give it to you later."

"And a gift?" Old Lady Tao smiled with wrinkles all over her face and patted her hand.

The appearance of Tao Qing immediately squeezed out Tao Ruoming's position. Even the angry old man Tao disappeared when he saw Tao Qing.

As soon as Tao Qing appeared, she attracted the attention of most people at the scene.

She was born very well, with a long skirt outlining her beautiful and slender figure. She had light makeup on her face and a pretty face. The confidence and generosity she had cultivated since childhood was also a unique charm.

If Tao Ruoming was delicate and quiet, then she was delicate and pretty.

Stepdaughters and biological daughters were obviously different. At this point, Tao Ruoming looked petty.

Tao Rong himself did not react. He stared at Tao Qing for several times before he was sure it was Tao Qing.

Her hair was dyed back and her makeup was normal.

It was okay as long as it was not embarrassing.

Mrs. Tao was traditional, gentle and charitable, with a gentle temperament and excellent popularity. She insisted on cutting the cake for the guests, and Tao Qing helped her.

"Grandpa, give it to you." Tao Qing handed a piece to Grandpa Tao first, with a smile on her face.

"What have you been doing during this period? Do you remember to come back?" Grandpa Tao said in a deep voice, but still reached out to take it.

No matter what, the Tao family only has her bloodline, no matter how naughty and unpromising she is, she must be protected.

"Grandpa, I'm taking the exam. I have a good news to tell you secretly. The certificate I prepared last time passed the written test." Tao Qing lowered her voice and whispered in his ear, with a hint of pride and smugness.

"Oh." Grandpa Tao looked at her with cloudy eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose, "Not bad."

No matter how valuable this certificate is, it's great to pass the exam!

Just like when a child gets 100 points in the exam, parents always have to show off.

"I've been preparing for the exam. Haven't I been coming back to accompany you and grandma less during this period? I not only prepared a gift for grandma, but also for you. Is it good for you?" Tao Qing was really sweet when she was sweet.

She was a little willful before, and wanted to deliberately alienate the old couple to get more attention. She always felt that they were partial to Tao Ruoming and thought she was useless. But Ji Yang was right. This was the only person who protected her. She couldn't let people feel disappointed, and she couldn't make everyone feel disgusted. Then she would be isolated and helpless.

The most straightforward thing is that Tao Ruoming got all the property.

She won't!

A carefree life requires money to maintain, and donating to the mountainous areas won't give it!

Hearing this, Mr. Tao laughed out loud, and was a little bit expectant.

After cutting the cake, Mrs. Tao's legs and feet were not in good condition, so she sat back on the sofa, holding Tao Qing's hand.

"Although it's not a valuable necklace, I also selected the pearls one by one, strung them together, and took them to the master at Nanhuan Temple to have them blessed."
