Tao Yue immediately realized that Second Aunt Tao was testing her, so she smiled and said, âThis is what I should do. Big Cousin and Big Cousin are the first grandson and granddaughter of the Tao family. They are the most suitable to represent the Tao family at the charity auction.â
Second Aunt Tao was always paying attention to her daughterâs emotions. When she saw her daughter smiling, she finally relaxed. âThatâs right.â
As soon as the mother and daughter finished their conversation, Tan Rou and Grandma Tao came over.
Tan Rou held Grandma Taoâs arm and the two of them walked into the greenhouse while chatting and laughing. Then, they saw the ground full of flowers and Tao Yue in the middle of it.
Grandma Taoâs expression instantly turned ugly. She asked coldly, âYue Yue, do you have any objections to Grandmaâs garden?â
Tao Yue was shocked and stammered, âNo objections. Of course not! Itâs justâ¦.â
She could not give a reason. Tao Yue was so angry that she didnât notice what she had done.
âMom, Iâm really sorry.â Second Aunt Tao apologized on Tao Yueâs behalf, âYue Yue is not in a good mood today, so she accidentally stepped on your flowers.
Grandma Tao couldnât be angry with Second Aunt Tao. âForget it, 1 wonât hold it against you. Since Yue Yue was in a bad mood, she should go back and rest early.â
Tao Yue got off the swing. âGrandma, Iâll go back and rest now.â
Second Aunt Tao didnât go back with Tao Yue. She still needed to talk to Tan Rou.
âXiao Rou, Iâm really sorry. 1 donât know how Yue Yue became like this. She used to be very obedient.â Second Aunt Tao said sadly. âAfter you came back, her mentality changed. She became very calculative and easily jealous of others. Iâm very sorry for her targeting you.â
Tan Rou knew Tao Yueâs nature, but Second Aunt Tao didnât. She didnât want Second Aunt Tao to be sad. After all, Second Aunt Tao treated her very well. Therefore, Tan Rou couldnât make things clear to Second Aunt Tao. âSecond Aunt, 1 know what youâre saying. 1 wonât argue with her over such a small matter. After all, weâre family. However, 1 still feel that she holds a grudge against me. I hope she would get over it soon.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âIâve already spoken to her, and she promised to change. 1 donât think sheâll target you anymore.â
âAlright, stop saying things that destroy family harmony. We have to educate our own children. If they canât be educated well, theyâll be sent to me for education. âIf it werenât for her concern for her daughter-in-lawâs feelings, Grandma Tao would have brought Tao Yue to her side to educate her.
âRourou, is there anything you donât understand about the rules of the charity auction tomorrow night?â Second Aunt Tao asked Tan Rou.
Tan Rou went to the auction just for the sake of showing up for her family. She didnât know how to speak, nor did she know how to bid for things, so she didnât need to learn the rules of the auction.
âIâm almost done. Moreover, Big Brother is by my side. I just need to follow him.â Tan Rou said.
Second Aunt Tao smiled. âYour brother is indeed reliable. If you like something, just buy it. When you come back, Weâll reimburse you. Just treat it as a gift. Youâve been back for so long, but I havenât given you a decent gift yet.â
Tan Rou thanked Second Aunt Tao for her kindness, but she did not want to accept her gift. After all, she did not lack anything. Moreover, her family had given her enough. She could not take more.
âThank you, Second Aunt, but 1 donât want anything. Even if I want it, I canât spend your money. Youâve already given me enough gifts.â Tan Rou smiled.
Grandma Tao interrupted their conversation. She said to Second Aunt Tao, âDonât waste this money. Iâll get the old man to pay later. Heâs the richest person in our family. If my granddaughter wants to buy something, why shouldnât he pay for it?â
Second Aunt Tao didnât know whether to laugh or cry. âAlright, we shall do it that way.â
The laughter of the three people kept coming from the greenhouse. Tao Yue, who was eavesdropping outside the greenhouse, was filled with hatred and anger.
Second Aunt Tao asked if Tao Yue had any objections. Of course, Tao Yue had objections. Not only did she have objections, but she also had a very strong opinion about it.
She had heard about the charity auction. The quality of the goods were excellent. Those who could attend the auction were wealthy, so Tao Yue had to attend the auction. Since the Tao family didnât want to bring her, she would find someone else to bring her there..
