Her tastes are peculiar, even liking that cripple Xiao Qinghe. That’s not all; that rough man Xiao Yishan also stood watch outside the Tao Mansion for a month or so. Who knows if your daughter hasn’t been played with by the Xiao Family’s brothers at the same time?”
Tao Meijiao turned pale, while Master Tao became so enraged that flames nearly burst forth, and he slammed the table hard, “Scoundrel! Someone, throw Qin Liang out!”
The twenty family servants Qin Liang had brought with him barged in and one of them promptly pushed Master Tao to the ground, “Who dares to throw my young Master out!”
“Father!” Tao Meijiao hurried to help her father up.
“Tao Wangde!” Qin Liang called out Master Tao’s given name, “If you don’t hand over one thousand taels of silver today, I will carry away all the valuable items in your Tao Mansion!”
“You wouldn’t dare!” Master Tao was so furious his heart ached, and his whole body shook with anger.
“What’s there to fear?” Qin Liang waved a big hand, “Carry on, take all the valuable things from the Tao Mansion!”
“Wait a moment.” Tao Meijiao spoke up.
“What now?” Qin Liang reached out and grabbed Tao Meijiao’s chin, “Have you changed your mind and are willing to enter a matrilocal marriage with me now?”
Tao Meijiao slapped his hand away, “You vile man, would I be foolish enough to invite a wolf into my house. You’re right though, I am Xiao Yishan’s now, as for Xiao Qinghe, I have no relationship with him whatsoever.”
“What did you say?” Qin Liang’s eyes widened before he suddenly burst into laughter, “I knew it, you and the Xiao Family’s brothers were unclear, turns out you really are a loose woman!”
Master Tao heard that his daughter had lost her chastity and was so angered, his eyes rolled back in his head.
The Maid Du Juan quickly supported him, “Master, Master!”
Seeing her father about to faint from anger, Tao Meijiao pinched his philtrum and only then did he catch his breath.
She said apologetically, “Father, please don’t be angry!”
Slap!
Master Tao furiously slapped his daughter.
The slap was so forceful that Tao Meijiao fell face down on the floor.
“Hahaha!” Qin Liang laughed loudly, “Everyone’s seen it clear now, Tao Meijiao is nothing but a harlot. She herself admitted to having an affair with Xiao Yishan. Such a loose woman, and still claims to be a well-bred young lady, she is simply a broken shoe!”
“Mind your mouth!” Tao Meijiao retorted angrily, “Qin Liang, nowadays, Xiao Yishan’s younger brother, Xiao Yuchuan, holds the status of the legitimate son of the Xiao Family in the capital. Xiao Yuchuan still acknowledges Xiao Yishan as his brother, so, once I marry Xiao Yishan, you would be opposing the Xiao Family in the capital. Although there was a verbal marriage agreement between us, I have not given a dowry, it was simply under consideration, and should you really extort one thousand taels of silver, even if I did give it to you, could you afford it? Is the Xiao Family something you can afford to offend?”
Hearing this, Qin Liang hesitated slightly.
He was not unaware that even though Xiao Yuchuan had reclaimed his identity, he was nonetheless unwilling to leave Longwan Town.
