179. The daughter of the carpenter's house

Tao Tao was speechless.

Don’t people in this society regard their father as heaven?

Tao Yuxuan is too personal. He can blatantly not take the old man seriously and never discuss anything with him. He doesn’t tell the old man about such awesome skills. If he wants to move, he is too disobedient and unfilial. Maybe those geniuses have such a problem!

What’s equally strange is that this old man Tao is too democratic!

Even the old father of modern times is not so timid.

His son has unique skills, so he was not curious and didn't take the initiative to ask.

He himself is also a carpenter. His son is better than his superiority. He doesn't like to study at all and asks his son for advice.

Tao Tao was secretly regretting that his unique skill was lost.

But I heard Mr. Tao say, "Taoer, our family is surrounded by wolves now. You are the only one who has some kung fu at home. No matter how powerful you are, you can't beat four-handed one hand. Besides, there are only more opponents. Let's continue to escape! Escape to a place where no one knows us, hide your identity, and start over."

"Grandfather, you said just now that our family is surrounded by wolves. We just want to escape, but we may not have the chance to escape."

"What should I do? Wait for death?"

"We fought wits and pretended to be ignorant, and they used quietness to control one, one, two, and a pair."

"This is not a long-term solution. You don't know that the wolf is greedy by nature. If you lock in the target and never give up until you achieve the goal, the wolf will continue to flow."

"But if we escape now, we will kill you. At that time, we may die faster. Now, they will try every means to take out what they want from you and from their mother's mouth. They will not be able to take it out. They will think of other ways, such as forcing me to get married..."

Old Master Tao walked around with a cane, "I'm just waiting for death to say so much, but I'll die sooner or later. All of them are dead. Let's report to the official!"

"Is it useful to report to the officials from those who come from the capital? Just like escaping, they will only alert the snake."

Seeing that his granddaughter was slow and slow, Old Master Tao couldn't help but feel relieved.

"Taoer, is there any way to save the whole family?"

"Grandfather, like the cellar under your room, is there any at home?"

"Yes! There are also under the room next to me, as well as under your father's dormitory and under your father's study."

"Does our four sisters have that yard?"

“There are also under Xing'er’s house.”

The second sister Xing'er's house is next to Tao Tao.

Tao Tao looked out the window and it was already dark.

"This is easy to deal with. Tonight, you all hide in the cellar. I'll go to the Hu family and find out the news. I'll know how to save our whole family."

"No, Tao'er, now it seems that the Hu family is just a tiger's den, you can't go."

"Grandfather, how can you get a tiger's son if you don't enter the tiger's den? Just like you said, we can't sit and wait for death!"

"But, I can't let you take risks! I'm going to the Hu family, and I'll tell them that only your father knows the unique skills of wood carving in our family. After he passed away, no one in the family will know about this."

"Grandfather, no, last night, the Hu family sent two people to arrest you. Now those two people have not returned to report, but you ran to the Hu family and say this, and they will naturally know that the two people they sent were arrested by us. This will make them beware of us and our family's situation is even more serious."

"But Tao'er, it's too dangerous for you to go to the Hu family alone. I'm incompetent. Your mother is cowardly by nature. Now you are the only one who can take charge of the family. If you have another one, how should this family be safe?"

"Grandfather, Tao'er went quietly. I went there, just asking for information. I won't alarm them."

Mr. Tao thought about it, there was no better way at the moment.

I can only let my granddaughter go and inquire.

"Grandfather, mother has already gotten up now! I'll call her over and let's discuss it again. You must hide it tonight so that I can go out with confidence."

Old Master Tao nodded.

"Your mother should know the truth about everything in the family, but your three sisters are still young, and I'm afraid they can't bear this fact. They scare them, and they'll be bad."

"The second sister Xing'er is already fourteen years old and is already at the age of discussing marriage. She is not young anymore. Let her know the current situation at home and help her mother comfort her two sisters."

Tao Tao has a lot to do next. For the safety of her family, they have to cooperate with themselves. Therefore, except for the two youngest sisters, everyone else has to take on their own responsibilities.

Tao Tao went to find her mother and second sister, and told her mother Cao and second sister Tao Xing about the words she had encountered the robber last night, as well as the robbers.

Cao and Tao Xing were naturally shocked and frightened when they heard this.

Tao Tao calmly ordered: "We must pretend to be nothing and must not leak information, especially in front of servants, we must not reveal any slightest words."

"Now, what we need to do is to take safety precautions. Mother, you should take three sisters with you and you must pay attention to safety. During this period, don't go out. If you have any problems, just ask the servants to do it."

Second sister, you have to help your mother take good care of the two sisters.”

"From tonight, you must all live in the cellar and arrange it in advance. Do not let any servant know about the cellar."

Cao looked at his eldest daughter who seemed to have grown up and become sensible overnight, and thought of her husband and youngest son who had died, and felt sad.

Cao was a typical ancient woman. Her mother's family was also a scholarly family. She had read books on women's virtues since she was a child, strictly abide by the three obediences and four virtues, and believed in the ancient sayings of following the father at home and following the husband after marriage.

From the bustling capital, she came to this remote mountain village with her husband from a thousand miles away. She had no regrets. At the same time, she obeyed her husband and broke off contact with her parents' home.

Even if you are cautious, your family will still encounter disaster.

The favorite child was tragically killed. Cao's heart felt like a piece of meat was cut off by someone. Her husband was killed and her sky collapsed.

But she still has four daughters.

No matter how difficult it is, she has to be a mother and protect them well.

Tao Tao suggested that on the grounds that his father and younger brother died and his mother was overly sad, the four sisters moved to her mother's yard to accompany her, and asked them to live in her mother's yard, which was actually convenient for them to hide in the cellar at night.

After making arrangements, Tao Tao yawned and went back to his house to sleep for a whole morning.

During lunch, Tao Tao was called out by her second sister to have dinner.

While sitting around the table, except for the two youngest sisters, they were still carefree, and everyone else was sad and worried.
