Chapter 1756: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1756: You Must Save Your Brother
Meng Han said, "It's good that Tao Qin went back. It's not a good thing for her to stay here. She caused my father to be captured, and I get annoyed whenever I see her."
Previously, Tao Qin had acted on her own and left the secret chamber, nearly leading the bandits into the chamber and endangering everyone.
The Meng family members couldn't do much to her, apart from the slap Meng Han gave her. After Meng Xiaoshu was rescued, the others couldn't scold her or treat her harshly. At most, they avoided interacting with her.
With peace restored outside, Tao Qin was ostracized by everyone in the Meng family. Even her favorite aunt no longer spoke to her. After leaving the secret chamber, Tao Qin had returned to her own family's residence feeling wronged.
Meng Han wished Tao Qin would never return to their place. She could barely stand the sight of her. If Tao Qin hadn't been injured, Meng Han wouldn't have let her off with just a few slaps.
Shu Yu remained silent. She believed that matters involving the Tao family were far from over.
At the very least, when Tao Feili's body was brought back to the Tao family, Tao Qin would eventually come to the Meng family.
However, Shu Yu had expected Tao Qin to come after seeing Tao Feili's body. She hadn't thought that the very next morning, while having breakfast in the hall, they would hear wailing sounds from outside.
Everyone at the dining table froze and turned to look at the entrance in unison.
Furrowing her brows, Meng Han said, "Why do I feel like I heard... Aunt's voice?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a servant rushed in, saying to the group, "Madam, Madam from the Tao family and Miss Tao Qin have arrived."
Meng Han abruptly stood up, placing her spoon back in the bowl with a scowl. "What are they here for? Didn't Tao Qin leave yesterday? Didn't she feel oppressed at our house? Does Aunt want to come over and mediate?"
Sitting beside her, Shu Yu held Meng Han's hand and motioned for her to sit down. "Why are you in such a hurry? We'll find out once they arrive, won't we?"
Meng Han snorted coldly and couldn't help casting a sideways glance at Tao Shi.
Unlike her usual cheerful demeanor, Tao Shi didn't rush out to greet them with enthusiasm. Instead, she muttered, "Does she dare to settle the score? I'd like to ask her how she taught her good daughter. When the bandits came, she actually pushed her aunt out to shield herself."
As she spoke, Madam Tao and Tao Qin entered, crying and sobbing.
Not seeing her brother, Tao Shi breathed a sigh of relief. She was very fond of her brother, and if he had been there, she wouldn't have known what to say.
But with only her sister-in-law and niece present, and on her own turf, Tao Shi's demeanor was much more imposing.
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing? Coming to our house so early in the morning, crying and causing a scene. Are you here to find trouble with me? I'll tell you, this matter was originally caused by Tao Qin..."
Before she could finish speaking, Zhang Shi interrupted her.
Zhang Shi rushed forward, tears streaming down her face. "Sister-in-law, you must save your brother's life."
Tao Shi was startled, her nervousness evident as she immediately asked, "What... What do you mean? What happened to Feili?!"
Meng Han and Meng Qi exchanged glances, all eyes turning to Zhang Shi, baffled expressions on their faces.
Meng Qi had a rough idea that his uncle had gone to the Black Market because his father had mentioned seeing someone there. However, he wasn't entirely clear about the specifics.
Only Shu Yu remained completely unfazed, nonchalantly continuing to eat her breakfast as though she hadn't heard the cries of Zhang Shi and her daughter. She would have more tasks later, so she needed to finish her meal to have enough energy for them.
