Taoyao Order

Chapter 69 Helping
Taoyao followed Chu Ping through the Moon Gate, and there were actually a large number of peach trees planted in the yard inside. It was the season when peach blossoms were in full bloom.As you look around, the entire yard is covered in brilliant pink, and the branches are covered with flowers.The breeze blows, and the peach blossoms sway like the tide, exuding a light floral fragrance, which is refreshing.

The petals of the peach blossom are soft and delicate, each petal is as light as a feather, fluttering in the breeze, attracting bees and butterflies swaying among them, creating a prosperous spring scene with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers.

Among the peach blossoms, there is a path leading to a stone table and bench in the middle, with cushions on them and tea fruits placed on them.

The old lady of the Chu family was leaning on the soft couch to the side. The sun was very bright today and it was neither cold nor hot. It was a good time to enjoy the spring.

I saw the old lady of the Chu family wearing a violet gold satin robe, with jewels piled on her head, and embroidered clouds and jade shoes at her feet.He is described as rich and dignified, perhaps because he is a wealthy and supportive member of the Chu family, and he does not look like he is in his 60s or [-]s.

She was leaning on the pipa cushion behind her and talking to the maid Forsythia next to her with a smile.

Suddenly, the maid outside heard a message saying that Mrs. Shao and the girl from the Tao family were coming.

He also stood up slightly, raised his head and looked out the door.

Shao and Taoyao came in and bowed slightly to Mrs. Chu. The old lady stood up with Forsythia's support and asked Shao and Taoyao to sit down quickly.

Mr. Shao and the old lady exchanged some warm greetings. They talked about the old lady's illness in the winter and how she has recovered now. They also talked about some ways to maintain her health.

The old lady congratulated Shao's daughter on the birth of a baby, asked about Brother Tuan's situation in detail, praised Brother Jun, and said she would come to Chu's house to play with the child next time.

Shao shied away that the child was still young and could not live without his mother, so the old lady promised to come to Chu's house to listen to the opera together when Taoyu recovered.

The old man of the Chu family likes to listen to operas. He has two theater stages at home, so he can listen to operas everywhere in winter and summer.

The old lady talked to Shaw Brothers for a long time about which theater troupe in Hangzhou had better plays.

Shao and the old lady were chatting lively, while Taoyao just sat quietly and listened. She looked at Chu Ping, who was sitting opposite him, and couldn't talk to him, but he looked at Taoyao with a smile.

Suddenly Chu Ping called Forsythia over and whispered in his ear: "Serve tea."

I saw Forsythia serving tea to Shao, but also bringing a small cup of lotus seed and red date soup to Taoyao. Mrs. Chu saw it, and finally made time to invite Shao to drink tea, and said to Taoyao: "Brother Ping said that you don't like drinking tea, so he asked the people below to cook lotus seeds and red dates soup. It can replenish qi, nourish blood and calm the mind. Try it. Is it to your liking?"

Tao Yao quickly thanked her, opened the cup, and took a small sip with a small spoon: "It's very sweet and delicious. Thank you, old lady."

Old Mrs. Chu looked Taoyao up and down, then stretched out her hand to let her sit next to her, and praised with a smile: "This girl is so pretty, it's really a beautiful place that can produce such a spirited girl.

When I saw your name on the invitation, I felt that you were related to our Chu family. You see, there is also a courtyard in our garden called "Taoyuan", where many peach blossoms are planted. I like it here. Come in spring. It looks very festive. "

Tao Yao smiled and praised: "Old lady, the peach blossoms here are very good. It really reminds me of the peach orchard at home. In the spring, the flowers are pink, like clouds, so beautiful.

It's just that the peach trees in my house are just ordinary peach trees, no more expensive than the old lady's peach trees. And the blue one is the first time I've seen it. It looks very fresh among the pink. "

The old lady smiled and said, "Yes, his grandfather liked these things and spent a lot of effort to cultivate them."

The old lady looked at Taoyao and continued: "I heard from Mrs. Shao that you studied with your father since you were a child. I like children who study the most. What books have you read?" Mr. Shao said quickly from the side: "Yes. She has read all the books his brother has read, and she has read them better than his brother who was a Jinshi. She is extremely intelligent and rare."

Tao Yao was afraid that the old lady of the Chu family would not like it, so she planned to make up for it herself.

But I never thought that the old lady took Tao Yao's hand and liked her more and more. After hearing this, she nodded repeatedly and said: "It's great. It's good to know how to read. Who said that a woman's lack of talent is a virtue? As long as she is quiet, elegant and non-competitive." It’s okay if you don’t rob her, that’s all the nonsense that men use to deceive women.”

Tao Yao looked at the old lady in surprise, but the old lady continued to pull her and said: "They say that we women should take care of our husbands and raise our children, so what does it mean to take a husband as a husband?
It is to help and support men.

Everyone thinks that men are stronger than women in this male lead outside and female lead inside, but when have you ever seen a weak one helping a strong one?That means you are stronger than him, so you can help him.

Therefore, if this woman wants to support her husband and raise children, she must be better than the man.

Men should read, and women should also read. They should read better and more thoroughly than men, in order to be able to help men and teach children well.

Therefore, I often say that it is not a big deal to marry a virtuous wife and have a good family background to help a man. It is best to be better than a man in mind and knowledge.

However, generally speaking, most women's mental outlook is inherently better than that of men.

Those delicate flowers and tender grass that accomplish nothing but act coquettishly and cling to men are the most useless.

But it's one thing for a woman to be stronger than a man, but it's another thing to be able to help a man.

Some women are stronger than men, so they trample them down and ride on their heads to dominate them. Although they are beautiful, they are often divorced and inevitably lonely, which cannot be considered happiness.

The most superior one is one who is stronger than a man, but can help and take advantage of a man, train him, and make him stand up and take charge of the family.But he is willing to negotiate with you on both big and small matters, and relies on you in his heart. You make him look good, and he makes you look good. You are blessed with his love and favor, your trust, and your husband and wife are harmonious. "

Taoyao was shocked by what the old lady of the Chu family said.Taoyao never thought that the old lady of the Chu family had such a temperament that she would not give in to women.She seemed to have told herself a very high moral example, which was beyond her reach. She could hardly imagine that anyone could achieve this.

Seeing Tao Yao's slightly shocked look, the old lady laughed happily again: "It's because I'm old, and older people always like to nag. It's also because I think you're a smart girl, so just like me Just like my granddaughter, I am very close to you, so I will say a few words to you, so you don’t have to take it seriously."

Seeing what the old lady said, Tao Yao quickly said: "The old lady is in a high position, Tao Yao has been taught, but..."

The old lady saw Tao Yao's expression of embarrassment and asked with a smile: "Just what?"

Tao Yao said truthfully: "It's just what the old lady said. I can't reach it yet, I can only yearn for it."

When the old lady heard this, she smiled: "Don't be in a hurry, just do what you want. People will grow up in this life, and you are still young."
