Chapter 418 The Jealousy of Women (1)
"My little girl knows that this kind of behavior is deceitful, but one person is responsible for the other. This matter has nothing to do with my father, and has nothing to do with Mr. Jiang." Tao Yingzhi bowed deeply to the people present.

The people around all gasped. The third miss of the Tao family was unambiguous, and she came forward to admit her fault, but this kind of behavior is indecent and cannot be forgiven, so someone shouted loudly, "Miss Tao, Do you think you can fool around like this? Your Tao family is deceiving the world, who else believes in your Tao family now?"

"That's right, Miss Tao San, as a woman, you should have stayed in the boudoir, waiting for a good match, instead of showing your face. I am ashamed for Master Tao."

The voices sounded again and again, but they were much more rational. Instead of the abuse and insults just now, they were more about questioning the integrity of the Tao family and investigating her faults.

Xu Zirong is not stupid, this Tao Yingzhi made this gesture just to get this effect, secretly clenched her fists tightly, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the approval on her cousin Jiang Ying's face, a pair of doggy men and women, then waved the handkerchief and cried: "Everyone, don't be fooled by her, she is a heinous woman who stole her fiancé..."

"Miss Xu, you keep saying that I robbed your fiancé? Do you have evidence? As far as I know, there is no marriage alliance between you and Mr. Jiang. It's all Mrs. Jiang's wishful thinking. You said you were bullied and divorced, Then show the evidence to everyone?" Tao Yingzhi stared at Xu Zirong's pale face, and she didn't dare to show everyone the letter Mrs. Jiang wrote to her.

Xu Zirong didn't expect Tao Yingzhi to use this to attack her. Her aunt scolded her in the letter, saying that she was ungrateful and so on. Yingzhi was not confused, at this moment she looked at her resentfully.

"Cousin, you said that I made an oath to you. That's just your one-sided speech. How can you win the trust of others? If I really had feelings for you, I would have married you a long time ago. How could it be delayed until now?" Jiang Ying rolled her eyes. Looking at this cousin who has always pretended to be knowledgeable and courteous like an ice knife, after tearing off the mask on her face, she is so ugly.

"You... one or two of you bullied me in this way. The words of the vows are private. How can you let me, a big girl with yellow flowers, say it? There is also the matter of retiring the engagement..." Xu Zirong quickly argued, and he must not give them a chance to turn things around. .

Xun Zhen in the crowd laughed and said, "I've been listening for a while, so it turns out that you are the one who made it up there. You said that Mr. Jiang made an oath to you, and now you say that you are ashamed to speak. Then you said it so loudly just now." What are you doing? You don’t know how to be ashamed at that time? And the third lady of the Tao family has done so many excessive things to you, but according to what I heard, you seem to live and eat in the Tao’s house. After a few days, how could you not be ashamed at that time? It is really embarrassing to say these words now, and the white-eyed wolf probably refers to people like you."

There was another uproar in the crowd. This time, people no longer looked at Xu Zirong with sympathy, but gradually became somewhat puzzled. Why is this woman like this?If Miss Tao San robbed her fiancé, how could it be possible to live in someone's house for so long?

"You...you are with them, you are lying." Xu Zirong's pretty face was bloodshot instantly, pointing at Xun Zhen and yelling, "Don't believe her, everyone, this woman has a very close relationship with Tao Yingzhi. It's a lie..."

"Then the fact that you lived in my Tao's house for more than half a year is still false? Miss Xu, do you dare to swear to the sky? I treat you with sincerity, but you do this. You are not afraid that a thunderbolt will strike you to death." ?” Tao Yingzhi asked step by step.

Seeing her approaching her, Xu Zirong backed away unconsciously, which gave everyone the impression that she was guilty, and her eyes gradually became disdainful. It seemed that most of what she said was false.

"I..." Xu Zirong's eyes flickered, she didn't dare to swear that she had never lived in Tao's house, swallowed her saliva, saw the contemptuous eyes of the people around her, and cursed angrily: "Tao Yingzhi, you are so despicable. "

"I'm despicable? No matter what, I'm not half as good as you, Miss Xu." Tao Yingzhi sneered. Even though her hair was disheveled, her slightly raised head showed an unyielding spirit. She looked around at the merchants who had business dealings with her Tao family, and stepped forward. Slowly said: "Since ancient times, filial piety has been mentioned. Who doesn't feel sorry for their parents? In ancient times, Wang Xiang begged for carp by lying on the ice for his mother. My father has been ill in bed for a long time. I believe that my stepbrother is in the imperial capital. Everyone knows, everyone knows, am I going to watch the Tao family's century-old foundation be destroyed? Do I want to watch my father dragging his old body back and forth?"

This remark moved many people a little bit, who hasn't had a time of three declines and six prosperity?They are all businessmen, and no one can guarantee that they will stand forever. Those who have children and women have put away their accusing faces.

But he still said humanely: "Even if it is for filial piety, Miss Tao San, what you do is wrong, you are deceiving everyone, business should be based on honesty, Miss San, not using your method, alas!"

Tao Yingzhi's expression became agitated, and his voice gradually rose, "I also know that business should be based on honesty, but women are bound by nature. If I do business as a woman, I'm afraid the Tao family's line of business will disappear in the imperial capital. Is it what a daughter should do? Hua Mulan was praised for her filial piety through the ages when she served in the army instead of her father. Why should I, Tao Yingzhi, be condemned by everyone for doing business on behalf of her father? I just want to lighten my father’s shoulders out of filial piety. Even if I deceive the world, I am pure and worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth."

The person who made the accusations was taken aback for a moment, but Tao Yingzhi's words were quite touching. With only his daughter present, his old eyes couldn't help but feel sad, thinking that if one day he was lingering in bed like Master Tao, his daughter's future would be worrisome. .

The scene fell silent, and everyone was lost in thought. Now is not the time to criticize Miss Tao San, but to look at this matter rationally.

Suddenly, the crowd parted to both sides. Mr. Tao arrived with the support of his wife. Seeing his daughter's disheveled hair in the arena, his old eyes were full of distress. He walked in front of his daughter on crutches and stood in front of her, "It's all me!" This old thing is useless, so it hurts my daughter. If everyone blames me, don’t implicate my daughter. I am the one who allowed her to disguise herself as a man. I am the one who is responsible for all these crimes bear."
