Before Liang Zhi took off her veil, Qiao Qing realized that there was nothing special about those eyes. After seeing the whole picture, her heart suddenly relaxed. She didn't know whether it was disdain or disappointment. The women are so similar that Mr. Tao sinks into his memories.

But mediocre.Second Grandma Qiao slowly sipped the sweet-scented osmanthus tea and put down the teacup after a while, "Since childhood dumb?"

Liang Zhi nodded slightly, took out a small brush, a bottle of ink, and a book sewn with thread and put them on the stone table, then lowered her hands again, looking very obedient.

Qiao Qing glanced at Tao Cheng lightly, "You guys usually talk like this?"

Tao Cheng smiled and said, "Yes. There is no noise at all, there is no meaning to it."

Qiao Qing turned to look at Liang Zhi again, "Miss Liang, did you know that my Cheng'er is the young master of the Tao Mansion?"

Liang Zhi shook her head slightly, then raised her pen and said: I found out later that the young master is approachable and easy to get along with.

"Yesterday, he had already arranged a marriage with the official's daughter, did Cheng'er tell you about this?"

Liang Zhi nodded, and Qiao Qing continued, "Since that's the case, you have to wait until Cheng'er marries the main wife before you can enter the house and become a concubine."

Liang Zhi wrote: I don't dare to have any unreasonable thoughts, the young master's marriage is all at your disposal.

Qiao Qing ordered the maid to fill up the tea, and now she calmed down. Before the official's daughter saw her, she blatantly brought a commoner to the house. Whether Tao Cheng did it on purpose or was ignorant, she didn't Getting angry and embarrassing on the spot, Qiao Qing thought she was saving face, and she said, "How is your family?"

Liang Zhiyi wrote that Qiao Qing covered up her dissatisfaction by drinking tea, and then asked, "Where are you working now?"

Liang Zhi stabilized her heartbeat, exchanged a glance with Tao Cheng, and then wrote: I am a tailor in the courtyard of a brothel.

Qiao Qing paused, then frowned and asked, "The brothel?"

Tao Cheng took the conversation, only said "mother" before Qiao Qing stared at her, "You haven't been home these few days, are you hanging out in the brothel?"

Tao Cheng admitted frankly that Qiao Qing threw tea all over his body as soon as he raised his hand, "You are 20 years old! Do you still want your mother to tell you right from wrong!"

Liang Zhi took out her handkerchief and wanted to wipe Tao Cheng's clothes, but was scolded by Qiao Qing, "Cheng'er has always been a loner, how come out of nowhere a sweetheart like you appeared, and I didn't ask you for the sake of saving face, but now you say What kind of trick did you use?"

Tao Cheng took the handkerchief, dusted it casually, and said, "Mother, don't be angry, just listen to me first."

Qiao Qing sneered, "You can say 'I'm not good enough for you', 'I'm not good enough for you'? Do you know that you are the young master of the Tao Mansion?"

Tao Cheng followed his mother, poured tea and handed it over.

Hating iron as weak as steel, Qiao Qing said angrily, "I have loved hanging out with lowly people since I was a child, isn't that one enough for your memory?"

Tao Cheng lowered his eyes and couldn't see his expression clearly. Liang Zhi didn't dare to say anything. The current development was within the two's expectations. She breathed carefully and heard Tao Cheng whisper, "Mother, calm down."

Qiao Qing snorted, "Just tell me."

"Of course I know it's not good to go in and out of the brothel frequently, especially when we're engaged." Tao Cheng took the teacup and handed it to Qiao Qing so that she could be splashed with it later, "So I thought about opening a tailor's shop for Miss Liang. She doesn't need to work in the brothel, so naturally I don't have to go in and out of the brothel either."

Before the expected tea splashed on her body, Qiao Qing stretched out her hand to caress Tao Cheng's cheek, and said in a warm voice, "Cheng'er, a woman's scheming mother knows better than you."

Tao Cheng was puzzled, "What do you mean?"

"I just want to use you, to cling to the Tao Mansion and enjoy the glory and wealth." Qiao Qing took a sip from her teacup, she didn't look angry at all, "The face is reserved, but the inside is dirty."

Tao Cheng stood up abruptly, grabbed Liang Zhi's wrist, and said in a forbearing tone, "Mother, let's do this for today."

Contemptuous enough to be too lazy to disdain, Qiao Qing said, "Walk slowly."

After leaving the Tao Mansion, they turned from a small alley to the bank of a river. The two dismounted and walked slowly along the green grass. .”

Liang Zhi waved her hands, and all the pen and ink fell into Tao's house. She couldn't express herself, so she had to spread her hands again.

Tao Cheng understood, "It's better than I expected. There's no need for you to do anything for the time being, what you are like before, will be what you will be in the future."

The day was coming to an end, and there was no one in the waterside courtyard.

Tao Cheng looked up to the roof first, and only saw two little sparrows, so he was sure that he had missed nothing.

It seems that the sexual indulgence in the past few days is not enough, and it can still allow him to have the energy to run around.Tao Cheng laughed at himself, laughing that once he was bitten by a snake for ten years, he was afraid of well ropes, caring would lead to chaos, and there was no need to worry.

His body was still soaked in damp tea stains, Tao Cheng changed his clothes first, then lay down on the deck chair under the tree, closed his eyes and meditated, carefully thinking about how to act next.

I have already taken the most difficult step today. I thought Second Grandma Qiao would be furious when she heard about the opening of the shop, and she would immediately "beat the mandarin ducks with sticks", and maybe she would secretly trip Liang Zhiming in the future. Just like how she treated Qingmo, but judging from today, Grandma Qiao didn't seem to bother too much, as long as he sings the one-man show well by himself, she can hide the truth.

"If you do too much unrighteousness, you will die yourself." Tao Chengqi sighed softly, swallowed a stomachful of ink, and used it to deceive everywhere. As Qing Mo said, a man's mouth is a deceiving ghost.

Taking advantage of the afterglow of the setting sun, a group of wild ducks were actively diving into the water, whether it was for fun or for predation, and they made a lot of noise. Tao Cheng raised one eyelid to look at them, thinking, "It's really comfortable to live."

Qingmo, who had been so emotional before, came back just in time, and saw Tao Cheng resting in the chair before he opened the fence door, he hurriedly waved his hands to hold the servant, and whispered, "Liu'er, we fooled the oiran just now." , do you think you can still fool him?"

Du Liu'er was exhausted physically and mentally, and was tossed.

As soon as the master woke up at noon, after he devoured his meal, he didn't mention embroidery, so he asked him to find a few books about five elements, gossip, and yin and yang in Zhouyi. When he came back, he brought a half-Xu old man with a so-called "solid hand", and pressed Qingmo into the recliner in two or three strokes, humming, as if he had picked up a meridian, and became a paralyzed man.

Du Liu'er was a little apprehensive, and told the old man, "Be gentle, don't break people."

Qingmo's face was ferocious, and he grinned and grinned, "It's okay, the strength is just right. It's you, you have to run again."

Du Liu'er bent over, "It's fine to run a few times."

So for most of the afternoon, Du Liu'er's legs never stopped, and she went back and forth to pick up several clothes for Qing Mo to choose from. This one is too fancy, and the plain one looks like a mourning dress, or it's not enough to become a fairy. Or like a street beggar.

The previously pale face turned tender and rosy as if the muscles and bones had been kneaded. It seems that the old man's technique is indeed true. Qing Mo sighed comfortably, and finally pointed to a sack-like patch of clothes, and said, "That's it."

Du Liuer looked Qingmo up and down, black cloth shoes, coarse linen clothes, messy half-high hair, and a plain to somewhat ugly soft leather mask. Opening his mouth should be able to deceive Mr. Tao.

Tao Cheng got up after hearing the sound, but only saw the young man and a somewhat sloppy man. After the two approached, his eyes only stayed on Qingmo for a moment, then fixed on the young man, "Where are the others?"

The servant pretended to be surprised, "Young Master Qing is not here?"

Tao Cheng frowned, the servant looked flustered, and lied, "Young master ordered me to find a fortune teller. When I left, he had just relaxed and was about to take a nap."

Tao Cheng still frowned, looked at Qingmo, and asked, "Fortune teller?"

Qingmo kept his head down, afraid that if he looked at him, his performance would be ruined, the servant hurriedly introduced, "Yes, this is the gentleman."

Tao Cheng pondered, paused before slowly saying, "When did you leave?" He asked the boy, but his eyes were still looking at Qingmo.

The little servant was stunned, and stammered, "Yuemo, it was before a stick of incense."

"Oh, a stick of incense." With brows stretched, Tao Cheng concealed a smile on his lower lips, "Guess when I came here?"

The little servant was so panicked that he couldn't speak anymore, and he didn't dare to ask Qingmo for help.

"Go down," Tao Cheng pinched the other wrist with one hand, and moved it casually a few times, with an air of trying to clean up, "I'll accompany this fortune teller and wait for Mr. Qingmo to come back."

The boy's spine was bristling, and he ran away in a hurry, and ran to the gate of the small courtyard. When he turned around to close the fence, he couldn't help sneaking a glance, and saw that the fortune-teller had been pinned to the tree trunk.

Qingmo was in pain, her hands were tied above her head, unable to move, "You, why did you notice it so quickly?"

The mask is very realistic, if he hadn't looked at these eyes, Tao Cheng might have been deceived. He tore off Qingmo's clothes with his other hands, revealing a large chest and waist with deep and shallow love marks. Embryo said with a nasty smile, "How many times have I dismantled and swallowed your skeleton, and I can tell it's you just by looking at it."

Qingmo was not reconciled, and fiercely said, "Let go, let go!"

How could Tao Cheng lean on him, slipped his hand out from the back, and groped carefully around Qingmo's neck, "I knew that a mask could solve the problem, so why bother me. If you didn't say it yesterday, it would be too late Such a day."

"I didn't expect it yesterday, but then you... ah, itchy..." The neck was itchy, Qing Mo twisted, and Tao Cheng couldn't refuse it.

The two were close to each other, Qing Mo was afraid that Tao Cheng would mess around again, he really felt that he couldn't bear it anymore, Qing Mo showed weakness and begged for mercy, "Tao Cheng."

Tao Cheng kindly let go of his hands, and was hugged in a fawning embrace the next moment. He lowered his head and kissed Qingmo's lips, "What about me then?"

Qing Mo muttered, "Later you were in heat on the roof, and I didn't steal time to tell you about the mask until I got back to the house."

Tao Cheng nodded with a low smile, "Well, it's my fault." Then he asked, "What did you do just now?"

"Going to deceive Huakui, I made a fortune for her, but she didn't recognize me."

"Yes, how do you calculate it?"

Qing Mo confessed honestly, "It's nonsense, just take out the article that I glanced at in the afternoon and make nonsense."

Tao Cheng joked, "That's right, I didn't kick you out as a beggar."

"Then...do you want to count it for you?"

"No need. I knew years ago that I was missing you in my life, and now I am fulfilled."

There may be some kind of masochistic slavishness in his body, it has been ruined like this for several days, Qingmo still nodded his feet and wanted to get close to Tao Cheng, he murmured, "Me too."

Tao Cheng can't stay tonight, he has to go back to the house to sing a one-man show, and, "I have been absent from work for a long time without authorization, and Mr. Guo is considerate in the private school, but the school is not good, I have to go back and apologize."

At this time, the two of them had finished their dinner slowly, and Qingmo was holding water to wash his face. The soft leather mask couldn't be found out like Tao Cheng's groping, it needed to be soaked in water to wrinkle, and it could be used again after drying, yes Good things that are hard to come by in the brothel, the boy got a piece of it only after he used the name of "Mr. Tao".

He took off the mask and put it away. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and asked, "If I always look like this, will you still be happy with me?"

Tao Cheng laughed, fantasizing about Qingmo's ugly face when he was a child, and felt that it was not acceptable, "Yes, I will, maybe it will be a few years later, after I know enough about how cute you are."

Qingmo narrowed her eyes, "Why don't I believe it?"

Tao Cheng picked up a towel and helped him wipe his face, "Believe it or not, you already have the token with you, you can't believe it."

Qingmo lowered his eyes to see the small core, and his feelings changed with the situation. At that time, he thought it was a shabby little thing, but now he looked at it and matched Tao Cheng. Even those jade pendants were inferior. He was quite proud, "Wait for you When we come back, let's cut off a strand of hair and put it in a small basket and seal it up."

Tao Cheng responded to him, kissing and responding, his love couldn't bear even this pond, he wrapped his arms around Qingmo's waist, hugged him to the side of the bed and put him down, bent over to touch his forehead, "I tell you Do you keep everything in mind?"

Qing Mo said "hmm", "You feel free to plead guilty, I will be careful to make money."

Tao Cheng saw the few books scattered beside the pillow, and sighed, "I just lost my temper and let you mess around."

Qing Moxiao fell on the bed and kicked him, "Go, you have no chance to go back on your word!"

The foot was caught, Tao Cheng lightly bit the ankle, Qing Mo flinched back, he leaned over and lifted the brocade quilt, covering him completely, leaving only his head to listen to his threats, "Don't be bold, be good."

Qing Mo said, "Yeah."

Tao Cheng said, "It's not just a little bit, it's so good that I can rest assured."

Qing Mo said, "Okay."

Tao Cheng wanted to speak again, but Qing Mo preempted him, "Follow orders!"

Tao Cheng sighed with a smile, "Let's go."

Qingmo poked out a foot from the side of the quilt and shook it, "See you by the river tomorrow night."
