Qin Tao looked back at his father. He finally understood that no matter what he thought today, the family was settled.

"Since my father can't tolerate me anymore, my son will leave." Qin Tao lowered his head and closed his eyes.

"You also know that your mother was born in a royal family, and her scholarly family did not have much dowry," Ruyang Hou said and handed him a list: "This is your mother's dowry list back then. Go back and check it yourself."

Qin Tao stretched out his hand to take it expressionlessly.

"The remaining wealth in the mansion will be divided into ninety-one points according to the ancestral system." Ruyang Hou said loudly.

Qin Tao felt even more uncomfortable.

On the contrary, Mrs. Ruyang Hou couldn't stop the joy on her face.

"I am the eldest son after all!" Qin Tao gritted his teeth and spoke word by word.

"So what?" Marquis Ruyang was unmoved at all: "The Qin family is a big family, do you think the Marquis is easy to do? He has to take care of many people, so he should have the majority."

Qin Tao's expression became a little ferocious, and there was also a trace of hatred in his eyes when he looked at Marquis Ruyang.

Marquis Ruyang also saw it. Although he felt sad, he didn't care anymore. He chose to give up his son anyway.

I waved to the butler to get the account book, then turned around and started drinking tea.

There was silence in the lobby, and everyone inside was enveloped in an inexplicable atmosphere.

Until the arrival of the butler broke the silence.

Marquis Ruyang took the account book and flipped through it, and he divided the family in a few words.

The total assets of Ruyang Marquis Mansion are about 200,000 taels of silver notes, Qin Tao's share is 10,000 taels of silver notes, and the rest are shops and houses.

After dividing the family property, Qin Tao didn't even salute Ruyang Marquis. He turned back to his own yard and ordered people to take the things and move them to the allocated house.

Although his house is in the inner city, it is in a very remote location, only separated by a wall from the outer city.

From then on, the place where he grew up was no longer his home.

It was only noon at this time, so Qin Tao packed his things and went out in a gloomy mood.

He walked aimlessly and unknowingly came to a dead end.

He sighed and refused to let his mind wander.

When I turned around, I accidentally saw people in the courtyard.

‘Huh?’ Qin Tao was shocked, who did he just see?

Quickly take a closer look.

Miss Hou and Liu Zhao were sitting among a group of women, smiling and embroidering purses, and kept explaining.

The women around me looked at the youngest who seemed to be over thirty, and they were all studying attentively.

"This is the simplest style. You should learn it first and then sell it in the embroidery workshop." Liu Zhao explained.

The sun shone on her body, giving her a layer of golden light, like a beautiful fairy.

Jishan Hall is a large courtyard, divided into east and west courtyards. The east courtyard takes in orphans, and the west courtyard takes in homeless women.

Because the defense of men and women was very serious in this era, a high wall was built in the middle of the east courtyard, which divided it into north and south courtyards. There was no exit door in the east courtyard. If you wanted to go out, there was only one gate in the west courtyard.

This is why Liu Zhao considered that among the orphans there were several two or three-year-olds who had only one door. Not only were they protected from traffickers, but the women in the west courtyard could occasionally help take care of them.

Two days ago, two wives were invited. It was so difficult to find a female teacher that Liu Zhao gave up and had to arrange for a female guard to follow the girls' class.

"Okay, you guys should practice hard. It's time for me to go back." Liu Zhao patted his skirt and walked towards the courtyard gate.

"Okay, miss, please go slowly! Thank you so much!" A group of women looked at Liu Zhao gratefully. Here, Liu Zhao was their savior.

Liu Zhao turned to look at them and smiled slightly: "Don't thank me in a hurry. I will come over tomorrow to check your results." After saying that, he got into the carriage with the help of the maid.

"My lady's embroidery is so beautiful." A fat woman caressed her lovingly.

"Yes, yes," another thinner woman echoed: "She is good-looking and kind-hearted. I think the flowers she embroidered are much more delicate than those of the embroiderers in the embroidery shop."

"Bah! How can the embroiderer compare with our ladies!" one of the very strong women said angrily. Their ladies have a noble status!

"Oh," the woman explained anxiously, realizing that she seemed to have said something wrong: "I didn't mean that, I just wanted to say that our lady's skills are good!"

"I know you're unintentional, so be careful next time!" the sturdy woman warned and raised a smile to her.

The woman just kept nodding her head. They were all very united.

The women in the West Courtyard have all suffered too much in life, and now they are well fed, clothed and accompanied by so many sisters. They are all truly grateful to Liu Zhao.

Qin Tao came out of the darkness after Liu Zhao's carriage had gone far.

He never expected that Liu Zhao would actually hang out with these third-class people, and he felt even more contempt in his heart.

There is indeed a reason why I don't like her, so what if she looks pretty? Humph! I'm willing to be humble!

Qin Tao looked at the happy women in the courtyard, curled his lips and walked away.

"Sir, you are back." The young man saw Qin Tao and ran over in a hurry.

"I went out to relax, have you found Miss Li?" Qin Tao was more concerned about this issue.

"I heard that Miss Li now lives in Shanan Lane in the outer city," the boy said.

"Well," Qin Tao nodded and ordered: "Prepare the carriage, I will go there now."

"Well," the young man hesitated: "Master Hou doesn't like Miss Li..."

Qin Tao's eyes shot out a stern look: "Who do you belong to now? If you still miss the Hou Mansion, I will send you back right now."

"I don't have it, I don't dare. I'm going to prepare the carriage now." The boy was frightened and didn't dare to say anything anymore, so he went to get ready in a hurry.

Qin Tao's brows never relaxed even as he sat in the carriage.

He has never been on such a bumpy carriage since he was born.

Finally arriving outside Li Yueru's courtyard, Qin Tao was a little dizzy from being shaken, and he staggered out of the carriage.

Li Yueru heard the noise and came out and shouted happily: "Master Qin!"

"Yueru!" Qin Tao was also extremely excited. In his perception, only Yueru was always standing by his side. Even though he had blamed her for being searched for letters by Marquis Weiwu, she disappeared without a trace at this moment.

"You finally came to me." Li Yueru raised her hands to cover her face and was about to cry.

"It was my father who stopped me from leaving the house, otherwise I wouldn't be able to come to you." Qin Tao also had mixed feelings in his heart.

Ye Zheng held the door frame in the house and looked at the two of them, feeling extremely panicked.

"Let's go inside first." Li Yueru pulled Qin Tao's sleeve.

"You wait here." Qin Tao looked at the boy standing aside and ordered coldly. In a few days, he would go to Renyazi to find some smart boys!

After entering the house, Ye Zheng brought them the tea they had just made.
