Love is More than a Word《识汝不识丁》Shi Nu Bu Shi Ding
Love is More than a Word, Chapter 17: The Famous teacher and the brilliant apprentice (8)...
Hao Guozi was speechless.
Is Miss Tong is really an infatuated man, but she has been put on hold for five years in this way. No wonder it was rumored in the city that she was hot and fierce in her tongue, presumably to keep her promise with Cai Fengyuan. The only thing is that this Cai Fengyuan is also too indefensible.
Cai Fengyuan said, "I am confident that I will be successful in this countryside examination. At that time, he went to the capital to take the exams, and was ranked in the golden list, so that I could propose his marriage to Tong's family."
Tao Mo puzzled, "Is this have a title before proposing marriage request from Master Tong, Lady Tong?"
Cai Fengyuan said: "Although they did not say it themselves, Tong House is a big family, if I have nothing, how can they not look down on me? Naturally, you can't speak about it until after you've been in the limelight."
Hao Guozi said, "This is daring. Nowadays, when Miss Tong is dead, you can go to take the test for as many years as you want. It's a big deal to propose marriage to Tong's family after high school, and that's all that Tong has ever wanted in her life."
Cai Fengyuan was so gagged that he couldn't speak, and only then sobbed, "How did I know, how did I know she would be like this? It must have been her parents' stubbornness that forced it on her. Why else wouldn't she think about it? Two months ago, she was clearly fine."
Tao Mo said, "You two met two months ago?"
Cai Fengyuan said, "On the fifteenth day of that month, we met at the Temple of Goddess of Mercy. I told her that I will have to concentrate on the exam and not to meet for a while. There's nothing half wrong with her saying yes, too."
Tao Mo said: "No complaints?"
Cai Fengyuan's eyes twinkled, "This, after all these years, she also hopes to get through soon."
Hao Guozi grunted coldly, but mockery was also lacking!
Tao Mo thought about it, but couldn't ask anything else, so he had to say, ''If you're sincere about Miss Tong, why don't you pay your respects at Tong's house? Then Mr. Tong and Mrs. Tong may not be what you think.
That's what I'm talking about. It is a sad thing in life is for a parents to bury their child. Besides, Miss Tong is dead, so even if there are any grudges, we should put aside our past grudges for the sake of Miss Tong."
Cai Fengyuan was silent.
Hao Guozi couldn't hold back again. "Anyone who knows fruits knows he has to pick the soft ones by pinching. It's only because the young master is an outsider and has nothing to do with the Tong girl, so he can only use her as a scapegoat and prevent public sneer. Then, Master Tong's wife is the biological parent of Miss Tong, so how can he have the face to meet her?"
Cai Fengyuan's face was grey and defeated, as if he had been told the main thing.
Tao Mo secretly sighed and dragged Hao Guozi out the door.
Hao Guozi said, "Young master, that person is clearly bullying the weak ones and afraid of the hard people. Don't you bother with him anymore?"
Tao Mo said, "It is also a great sorrow in life to lose a loved one."
Seeing that Tao Mo was puzzled, Hao Guozi was afraid that he would remember the old events, he busily said, "Ah, I'm hungry, why don't we eat something first."
Tao Mo nodded woodenly.
As the two exited the inn's door, Hao Guozi suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Tao Mo said: "Why don't you go?"
"There was a man there who kept looking at us. Ah, here he comes." Hao Guo nudges Tao Mo with an elbow.
Tao Mo turned around, but it was Gu Xiaojia.
Gu Xiaojia came to the boss reluctantly, "My lord has a treat."
Tao Mo's eyes lit up and he was about to raise his feet when he was stopped by Hao Guozi, "Your Gongzi wants to invite us? The young master of my family is the County Master of the Tangyang County."
Gu Xiaojia rolled his eyes, ''Tsk. What about the last time you stood in front of your son's mansion and posted? You're still the young master of the county?"
Hao Guozi looked at him suspiciously, "Who are you?"
Gu Xiaojia said, "Surname Gu."
Hao Guozi was startled, "Gu She?"
Gu Xiaojia face turned dark, "Our family Gongzi is the one who called." Before he could finish his sentence, he saw Hao Guozi desperately pulling Tao Mo to run in the other direction.
Hao Guozi said, "Go home and eat."
Gu Xiaojia said, "I said my lord has an invitation."
Hao Guozi didn't allow an inch and said, "My Lao Tao invited me first."
Gu Xiaojia frowned, "Who is Lao Tao?"
Hao Guozi said, "Dinner is on the house."
Gu Xiaojia: "..."
Hao Guozi's hands suddenly loosened and he turned his head to look at it along with Gu Xiaojia.
Gu She stood in front of the carriage, and Tao Mo was running his ass over.
Gu Xiaojia said triumphantly, "It seems that Lao Tao's charm is no more than just that."
Hao Guozi: "...."
Tao Mo ran up to Gu She, his heart fluttering, "You, why are you here?"
"Passing by," said Gu She.
Tao Mo looked left and right and suddenly said, "Are you going to the Tong House?"
Gu She sideways and said, "Get in."
"Oh." Tao Mo climbed into the car.
Waiting for Gu She to get on the carriage he realized that the carriage was a bit narrow. Tao Mo blocked the doorway, the two inevitably rubbing up against each other as he passed.
Gu She retreated again.
Tao Mo said blankly, "Why don't you get in the car?"
Gu She said, "You go and talk to your little boy."
Tao Mo patted his forehead and laughed, "I almost forgot about that."
Gu She waited for him to get out of the carriage before he got into the car.
Gu Xiaojia and Hao Guozi pulled at them.
Gu Xiaojia shouted in his mouth, "You go with Lao Tao and tell him that your young master has been invited by my lord."
Hao Guozi sulked, "Lao Tao will definitely be furious."
"Haha. Who makes your Lao Tao less handsome than our Gongzi." Gu Xiaojia thought that Lao Tao was angry that Tao Mo had missed his appointment.
Seeing Tao Mo get off the carriage again, Hao Guozi rushed up and said, "Young master, let's go back to the county office."
Tao Mo glanced at the gloating Gu Xiaojia and whispered, "I'll go with Master Gu, you go back first."
"Where to?" Hao Guozi said warily.
Tao Mo was stunned by the question and said after a while, ''About, about going to the Tong Mansion. I happen to be asking Master Tong and Lady Tong about the case of the Tong girl."
Hao Guozi muttered, "It's the Magistrate's business to handle the case, I don't know what kind of hilarious activities that Gu She wants to put on."
Gu Xiaojia's ears were pointy and he scoffed in disbelief, "Ha. Our Gongzi is the world's first wise man, and his willingness to condescend to help your young master is already a great blessing. I can't believe you don't know better."
Hao Guozi laughed coldly, ''The number one wise man in the world? You might as well say that your Gongzi is the most intelligent and powerful man in the world. And turns out he is just full of money.”
Gu Xiaojia glared at him.
Hao Guozi was speechless. He was just doing some smooth-talk.
Tao Mo saw them chattering endlessly, busy: "I'll be right back, I won't be delayed. You go back first."
Hao Guozi also didn't want to lose face to his young master in front of Gu Xiaojia, he didn't want to say, so he could only say, "Yes. Young Master."
Tao Mo jumped back into the carriage, and Gu Xiaojia drove straight to the Tong Mansion.
Tong's house looked no different than it did in the past.
Gu Xiaojia knocked on the door, and the doorman's face instantly changed when he saw Tao Mo jump from the carriage.
Tao Mo was oblivious, and waited until Gu She had gotten out of the carriage before following him towards the gate.
The gatekeeper guardedly glanced at Tao Mo and respectfully said to Gu She, "Master Gu."
"Is your lord here?" Gu She.
The gatekeeper said, "Yes." His gaze still lingered on Tao Mo.
Tao Mo Tao: "We've met."
The gatekeeper said, "My lord's graceful this humble man is still forgetting." He's really forgetting as an adult who wants to open a coffin for an autopsy even after being buried.
Tao Mo shyly said, "Actually, I'm pretty ordinary too."
Gu Xiaojia puffed out a laugh.
Gu She was raising his feet to enter the door when he suddenly turned back and said to Tao Mo, "Among ordinary people, you are considered one of the lesser ordinary ones."
"... "
Gu She... ... is he praising him?
As soon as Tao Mo was light on the soles of his feet, the entire person almost floated into the mansion.
The first time he was in the middle of the night, he was in the middle of the night, and the second time he was in the middle of the night, he was in the middle of the night.
"Lord Gu, Lord Tao." The difference between the two is evident in his mind.
Tao Mo arched his hand and said, "Master Tong."
Master Tong smiled casually and rushed towards Gu She, "Please take your seat inside."
Gu She and refused.
When the three were seated, it was indeed Gu She who sat at the top of Tao Mo.
Tao Mo didn't take it personally either, instead he was happy.
Tong and his subordinates served the tea before he said, "I wonder why Master Gu is here?"
Gu She said, "Lord Tao came to my palace yesterday and wanted to open Miss Tong's coffin for an autopsy."
Old Master Tong's face suddenly went dark. The gatekeeper had told him about it, and he thought nothing of it, but he let it go. He didn't want Tao Mo to come to the door with Gu She and for him to turn them away at the door, is it true that the autopsy request won't stop?
He couldn't help but hesitate in his mind.
Tao Mo busily said, "There is no need to re-examine it now."
Master Tong said faintly, "What made His Excellency show mercy?" This sentence is actually quite unforgiving.
Tao Mo said, ''It's my recklessness. I'd like to apologize to Master Tong for coming here so rashly without receiving Cai Fengyuan's confession."
Seeing that he had gone soft, Master Tong slowed his face and said, ''Good talk, good talk. I just don't know who this Cai Fengyuan is."
Tao Mo said, "It's Miss Tong's sweetheart."
Old Master Tong's face went dark again.
