256 256 Going On A Holiday

The weather had turned breezy, but it was still a little hot. It was a good time to go out and play this season.

Mrs. Tao knew that her daughter was about to take part in the physics competition. Now, everytime she came home, not only did she have to study, she would also have to make the incense pills. Sometimes, the light in her room was still on even after midnight.

Studying was tough, and even if Tan Rou would be able to endure it, she would still feel exhausted during the day.

A mother’s heart ached for her daughter. She thought of ways to make delicious food for her daughter so that she could replenish her nutrients. Under Mother Tao’s careful care, Tan Rou could always maintain her good condition.

“Hubby, I have something to discuss with you.” Mrs. Tao brought Mr. Tao a bowl of hot soup. “Rourou has been working too hard in her studies recently. Why don’t we go on a holiday to relax? Ever since Xiao Rou came back, we haven’t gone on any trips. I wanted to take this opportunity to relax as a family.”

“Is there a good place that you would like to go?” Mr. Tao agreed with her suggestion.

Mrs. Tao said, “When I was looking at houses the day before yesterday, I noticed that the newly built holiday villa isn’t too bad. It’s large, well-equipped, and has a beautiful environment. The most important thing is that it’s not far away. We can go back and forth to that place in two days. Should we go there to play, fish or enjoy our time at the farmhouse?”

“I have no objections.” Mr. Tao trusted his wife’s judgment. “Have you seen any houses that you like?”

“I saw a large, double-story. The price is not bad and has been newly renovated. I went to take a look. I don’t like the style of the renovation, so I’m going to change it to a new one.”

“Try to choose furniture that is made of good and low-key materials so that the children won’t be able to see through it.” Father Tao reminded his wife.

“I know,” Mother Tao replied with a smile. She thought of another matter. “Earlier, you mentioned that the Tao family contacted the Tan family. How was it?”

Mr. Tao laughed coldly. “The Tan family came immediately when they smelled meat. Don’t worry, we won’t let them take advantage of us.”

“Not only are we going to prevent them from taking advantage of us, but we also have to get Rourou’s debt back.”

Mr. Tao clenched his fists. “Of course! Let’s just wait and see!”

Although Mrs. Tao had already discussed it with Mr. Tao, she had yet to ask her daughter for her opinion. If her daughter did not want to go, their plan would have to be abandoned.

“Rourou, are you asleep?” Mrs. Tao knocked on the door.

“No, I’m not.” Tan Rou put down her pen and opened the door for her. “I’m still studying the questions.”

Mother Tao’s heart ached. “Look at you. You’re so haggard.”

She passed a bowl of soup to Tan Rou. “Drink a few mouthfuls to replenish your nutrients.”

Tan Rou was very touched. “Thank you, Mom.”

“Why are you still being so polite with me?” Mrs. Tao walked into the room. “Let me accompany you for a bit.”

When she was young, Tan Rou really hoped that Chen Yi could accompany her, but she never did. When Tan Rou was very young, she was sent abroad. In the dead of night, in the endless nights, her senses would be magnified. At that time, she longed for her mother’s embrace.

“Sure.” Tan Rou put down her pen and sat on the chair facing Mother Tao, tasting the soup her mother made.

“I would like to discuss something with you.” Mother Tao suddenly spoke up with a gentle smile on her face.

“Mom, go ahead. I’m listening,” Tan Rou said.

“You’ve been too tired recently. Everyone said that you have to strike a balance between work and rest. It’s not a good thing to be tense all the time, so we have decided to take you and your siblings on a vacation. It’s not very far, just in the city. I wonder if you’re free?” Mrs. Tao asked.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Very free.” Tan Rou was delighted from the bottom of her heart. She had never taken a vacation with her family before. “When are we going?”

Seeing that she was happy about it, Mrs. Tao was naturally relieved. “I will arrange it now. We can go this weekend.”

“Alright.” Tan Rou looked excited too.

Her reaction made Mrs. Tao felt gratified. No matter how capable her daughter was, she was still a seventeen-year-old girl. This was what a girl at this age should be like. She should be playful and obsessed with being beautiful, and not force herself to be busy all the time.

“How about this? I’ll go and tell your brother.” Mrs. Tao didn’t want to disturb her from studying. “You should go to bed soon.”

Tan Rou had an indescribable feeling in her heart. This kind of feeling of being placed in the heart of her parents was something she couldn’t get even if she begged for it in the past, but now, she feels it every day.
