Chapter 417 Looking at each other
When Li Taohua came out, Tang Dafu put his cloak on her.
"It seems Yinyin is fine, we can rest assured."
Li Taohua nodded.
Seeing her frown, Tang Dafu said distressedly, "Why are you still unhappy?"
Li Taohua glanced inside the room and gathered her cloak: "Let's go back first."
The sound of Tang Luwu and Qin Huiyin talking and laughing could be heard from the room. Even after what happened in Nalan Mansion today, Qin Huiyin was still as carefree as ever, not worried about herself at all.
Li Taohua and Tang Dafu returned to their own rooms.
As soon as they entered this door, the maids like Runiang who served Li Taohua would leave. Because once they entered this door, all the mistress's affairs would be taken care of by the master of the house, and they would not be needed as an eyesore.
Tang Dafu massaged Li Taohua's shoulders and said, "Wife, Yinyin is so attractive. You should find her a good family as soon as possible. I know you can't bear to let her go. We can get engaged first instead of getting married."
"Then tell me, where do good families come from? What kind of family do you think is a good family?" Li Taohua asked back.
Tang Dafu chuckled foolishly: "This is up to my wife to decide. If my wife likes the family, then they are a good family. If my wife doesn't like the family, then even if they are royal relatives, they are not a good family."
"You have it easy. You don't have to use your brain at all and just live your life foolishly all day long. Fortunately, your three children are not like you, otherwise what future would they have in their lives?" Li Taohua said with disdain.
"I'm a loser, but I'm lucky. God loves me and gives me such a good wife and such good children." Tang Dafu said sweetly.
Li Taohua looked at the pretty face that was maintained because of the regular use of the skin care cream formulated by Qin Huiyin. She had to say that this bastard knew her preferences very well, so he had a tight grip on her.
He is not stupid, he is the smartest one. He doesn't do thankless tasks. He only has one thing to do all day, which is to make her happy.
"Let's sleep." Li Taohua lay down on the bed.
Tang Dafu came over: "Wife, I want to..."
"Don't you know how old you are?" Li Taohua said disdainfully, "You do nothing all day and you're just using all your energy to mess with me, right? I'm very tired today and don't feel like moving."
Tang Dafu said aggrievedly: "Wife, I didn't ask you to touch me."
……
The next day, Tang Yichen and Nalan Yushi went to court together. After the court, they returned to the Yushi Mansion and began to investigate the matter.
In fact, if someone did it, there would be clues left behind. Tang Yichen's people noticed something was wrong last night, so they can be sure that someone drugged Maomao, and that it was targeted at Qin Huiyin. As long as these two points are found, there is no need for any evidence, and we almost know how this happened.
We are all smart people, so some things don't need to be said too clearly. Based on the recent events, the Nalan family has set their sights on the Zhu family.
The Zhu family is in trouble.
Although Mr. Zhu was the Minister of Personnel, being targeted by the Censorate was not a good thing. Not to mention being targeted by two officials from the Censorate at the same time.
Tang Yichen, the fledgling, was still a fledgling, and they certainly had ways to control him. But what about Lord Nalan? The Nalan Mansion had a strong foundation. The Zhu family was using the Nalan Mansion to scheme against the Tang family's daughter, a slap in their face. If they didn't speak up, they would think the Nalan family was easy to bully, and anyone could use some shady tactics against them in the future.
Not to mention that Doctor Nalan valued Tang Yichen very much and wanted to marry his precious daughter to him. Because of this matter, he couldn't bring himself to ask for the time being and could only wait for the next opportunity.
Wang brought Nalan You to visit.
Li Taohua received Wang and her daughter and said to Wang, "The girl is fine, she just caught a cold. I've kept her in the yard and won't let her out. I'll have the servants take Miss Nalan over and have the young people talk properly, so they don't get too embarrassed when we're watching them."
Mrs. Wang felt relieved to see that Li Taohua was still quite enthusiastic and not as overbearing as she was last night when she wanted to kill the dog.
The Nalan family was at fault in this matter. Regardless of whether Maomao was drugged or not, the fact was that he almost hurt their daughter. Ultimately, the Nalan family was also responsible for failing to supervise her properly.
It would be best if Li Taohua was willing to reveal this matter. After all, they still wanted to marry into her family!
In reality, given her daughter's status and position, she should have found a higher position. Marrying a prince, not to mention a duke, or even a crown prince, would have been no problem. However, her daughter's personality was too delicate, making her unable to become the head wife of a prominent family. If she married the second-born son, she would be under the thumb of the eldest son's wife, and would easily suffer losses and grievances. After much deliberation, she and her husband decided to let her daughter marry down.
Tang Yichen was a handsome man, and few noble ladies in the capital would dislike him. He was the eldest son and the only official in his family, so his wife would undoubtedly be responsible for the family's future. His biological mother had passed away long ago, and his stepmother was still a stepmother from him, so she could better protect and advocate for her. Furthermore, this family was wealthy, never lacking in money, and lived a more comfortable life than many second- and third-rank officials.
The most important thing is that he works under her husband. As long as he marries their daughter, he has to take good care of her. This way he can get help from his wife's family and be promoted in the future, which will be a win-win situation for both of them.
"We are truly negligent about what happened yesterday. Please don't be angry, Madam Tang," Wang said. "It's fortunate that your daughter can swim. Otherwise, she would have been rescued by the young master of the Zhu family, or by a servant of the mansion. Her reputation would have been damaged, and we really don't know how to apologize."
"I was so anxious at the time that I forgot my daughter could swim. It even frightened Madam Nalan."
"As mothers, once we encounter matters concerning our children, who wouldn't lose all their minds and even their rationality? Not to mention you, if it were me, I'd probably faint on the spot."
The servant took Nalan You to Qin Huiyin's yard.
The Tang residence was located in the outer city, but its area was no smaller than the Nalan family's, and might even be larger. Furthermore, it contained many valuable treasures. For example, the fish in the pond—the Nalan family could only find a dozen or so species—theirs boasted dozens, densely packed together, as if they had gathered all the precious fish species.
And the flowers in the garden are not only of many rare varieties, but also very well maintained.
Her mother said that the Tang family was wealthy, but she felt that was too conservative. She was afraid that they were not wealthy at all, but rather extremely rich.
"Miss Nalan, we've arrived at our young ladies' courtyard," Runiang said. "I'll go in and tell them first. The young ladies tend to act a bit naughty when they're not out, and I'm afraid they might scare you with their disheveled clothes."
