Love is More than a Word, Chapter 44: Linked in countless ways (8)...

Gu She shot a mere glance, then moved back to the chessboard. However, Yi Yu felt an indescribable discomfort, as if the other party had looked at him and understood him from the inside out with a single glance.


Hao Guozi grabbed Gu Xiaojia's chance before he could speak, "Young Master Tao, Mr. Yi Yu is here to see Mr. Gu, shall we go back first?"

Gu Xiaojia's brow furrowed as he said, "My family Young master doesn't know him."

"What did you bring him in here for if you didn't know him?" Hao Guozi snickered.

Gu Xiaojia choked. It's true that he didn't do the right thing in this case, because the one who was looking at Yi Yu was Tao Mo. But at that time, he was enraged by Hao Guozi's inexplicable actions, and wanted to tear off his pride and scream at him, but he didn't think about it carefully. Proper back then. Now it looks like he invited misery on himself..

He looked helpless at Gu She.

He didn't want to hear the words from Yi Yu: "I heard from the people that Mr. Gu from the House of Gu, Mr. Gu She, is stunningly beautiful and unique in the world and that he is a rare and wonderful person. I admire you, and that's why I took the liberty of visiting you at night, so please forgive me, Mr. Gu for being so embarrassed that I came uninvited."

Hao Guozi feigned a shudder and rubbed his arms vigorously.

Gu Xiaojia also found this young master's sentimentality a bit preposterous and is even more frustrated with his own recklessness to allow him entrance.

When Tao Mo saw that Gu She was silent, he said: "He is indeed my old friend, who moved to Tangyang this time. At the county courthouse."

Gu Xiaojia frowned, "Aren't all the houses in your county yard uninhabitable?"

Peng Xiang said: "It's not that you can't live here, there's such a big hole in the roof that you can raise your head and look at the moon!"

Hao Guozi puffed out a laugh.

Tao Mo was stunned and said, "Didn't Mu Chun say he had found a good house for you?"

Hao Guozi kept his voice in his mouth, vaguely saying, "Where is there a good place to stay in the magistrate's court when the young master and I have moved out?"

Tao Mo's face instantly turned red, even in both ears. Thinking about how he slept sweetly in the Gu residence, while Yi Yu who was a guest lived in a leaky humble room, he felt so ashamed he wanted to bury his face in the ground.

Yi Yu smiled: "It's actually not as serious as what Peng Xiang said."

Peng Xiang complained, "Isn't it serious? It rained yesterday, and the house was wet, even the bed was damp." He'd been following Yi Yu since he was sold into the Qunxiang House and had never suffered greatly again, and the cold rain and sparse wind that night had left him barely closing his eyes with Yi Yu drinking ginger soup together to keep warm until dawn.

Tao Mo couldn't help but stand up, filled with guilt, "I really don't know, this, why don't I just find an inn for you guys?"

Yi Yu smiled: "Actually, it's only a little bit broken, but it's livable. I'm drifting around with Peng Xiang, why would I be so particular about it? I'm grateful to have a tile to cover my head."

Tao Mo heard him speak humbly, and the guilt came even more overwhelmingly.

Snap.

Gu She and threw his pieces back into the chess jar.

Tao Mo then remembered that he was still playing chess and was busy saying, "Sorry, I got distracted."

"Since we have visitors, this game is over." Gu She, "You go back first."

Tao Mo was startled.




The rest of the group was startled.

Gu Xiaojia knew he was in trouble and called out in a low voice, "Young master."

Gu She faintly, "Send Tao Da-ren back to his room."

Gu Xiaojia stared at Tao Mo in silence, his feet still.

"I...” Tao Mo looked at Gu She and then at the door.

With a slight smile, Yi Yu said, "We'll catch up some other time."

Hao Guozi thought to himself: This is Gu's residence, and even if he can't get a mouth on anything out of it, he won't be at a disadvantage if he besmirches Yi Yu. He'll be doing better than Young Master. He thought to himself, and immediately pulled Tao Mo out with his right hand.

Gu She glanced at Gu Xiaojia.

Gu Xiaojia looked down at his toes, but he just didn't move a step.

Gu She turned to Yi Yu, "Where did you come from?"

Yi Yu light smile: "The magistrate's court."

"Why come?"

"Visiting Friends."

Gu She: "Who is your friend?"

Peng Xiang was confused. Haven't these questions been asked clearly and plainly just now? Why is this Gu She asking again from the beginning as if he didn't hear anything?

Yi Yu didn't humble himself: "Tao Mo."

Gu She, "This is not Tao residence."

Yi Yu: "I've been hearing about Mr. Gu's reputation for a long time and wanted to take the opportunity to see his style."

Gu She looked down and said, "Where did you live before you came to Tangyang?"

Yi Yu’s eyes sank slightly, and in a moment, then he calmly said, "The House of Qiuxiang."

Gu muttered, "It's just a little house (brothel)."

Yi Yu tilted his chin slightly and his gaze fixed at Gu She: "Mr. Gu looks down on people from humble backgrounds who have fallen into the hard days?"

Gu She, "No harm done."

There's a hidden glint of light in the fascinating Yi Yu's eyes.

Gu She up and walked out without looking at him, "It's just that there's no business for you to do here."

Yayi Courtyard.

The bright moon hung alone in the night sky.

Tao Mo paced back and forth restlessly, trailing shadows shifting from time to time under the bamboo shadows.

Before long, Hao Guozi's hurried figure turned out of the archway.

"What happened?" Tao Mo rushed forward and asked.

"Go back." Hao Guozi couldn't hide his joy.

Tao Mo was stunned: "So soon?"




Hao Guozi secretly lamented: The faster Yi Yu leaves, the more it means that Gu She didn't give him a good time, which is simply delightful. But then he said, "Perhaps Mr. Gu is tired? That Yi Yu is not related to him, so there's nothing to say."

Tao Mo sighs, "It's all my fault."

Hao Guozi couldn't turn his head for a moment, "What does this have to do with the Prince?"

"If it weren't for me, the anathema wouldn't have come to the Gu residence."

Hao Guozi looked happy and said, "Young Master finally realizes how annoying this Yi Yu is, right?"

Tao Mo also felt in his heart that Yi Yu had come too recklessly today, but when he thought about the fact that he was living in an uncovered house because of himself, he felt a pang of guilt.

Hao Guozi: "Just send it away anyway."

Tao Mo: "You should go to see Master Mu tomorrow and ask him to find an inn with an elegant and quiet environment for Yi Yu. No, it's better to go tonight."

Hao Guozi was busy stopping him: "He must have gone back to rest all tonight, it's rather troublesome to move around."

"What about tomorrow?"

Hao Guozi wanted to retort, but then he thought that, with Yi Yu at the inn, he'd spend less time at the magistrate's office, and would run into the young master's There was even less chance that it would count as a break in the bank, so he said quickly, "It's natural. That shabby house in the county yard is by no means to let them live in anymore."

Tao Mo looked at him suspiciously.

Hao Guozi: "I mean it this time." Sincerely, I want to ask the pair of master and servant to fuck off!

Next day.

Tao Mo woke up feeling a bit of a headache. He didn't sleep well last night, and the images of the two of them, Yi Yu and Gu She, kept floating in his mind.

At one moment, he wonders if he's treated the man badly, if he's not a good host. At another, he wonders if Gu She knows where the man came from. Look at himself This is how you toss and turn, sleep, wake up and think about sleep, think about sleep, and have a restless night.

Hao Guozi slept quite soundly, and at the thought that he could send that pair of servants out of the magistrate's office today made him feel like a walking tiger.

Tao Mo came out with puffy eyes, looking rather like he's been crying.

Hao Guozi looked startled and whispered, "Young Master, you, you miss the Old Master?"

Tao Mo was stunned, guilt suddenly appearing in his heart. He had been tossing and turning over the past few days because of Yi Yu, and had forgotten that his father's dying wish was for him to become a famous person. A good official who works for the people, and yet he has gone round and round and gotten caught up in his son's and daughter's affairs. "Shall we go to the magistrate's court?" He stood at the edge of the bamboo forest and took a deep breath, trying to dispel his depression.

Hao Guozi was a little confused. How come after taking a breath, the young master looked like a different person?

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Gu Xiaojia come in listlessly, "Are you guys free today?"

Hao Guozi, who knew that Yi Yu left very early yesterday but didn't know why she left so early, brightened up when she saw Gu Xiaojia come in and even His question was also answered honestly, "On my way to the courthouse."

"The Young master would like to invite the two of you to go trekking together, I wonder if you are free?" Gu Xiaojia asked with a blank expression. After sleeping in the kitchen last night, he had learned his lesson the hard way and decided to do what the Young master told him to do from now on in peace, never to take matters into his own hands, and never to act like a smartass. Anyway, he's never going to sleep on the floor in that cold, hard, smelly part of the kitchen again! Sleeping in a place like this once is enough to remember it for life!

Tao Mo's heart moved, then remembered his father's earnest instructions, and hung his head to restrain himself, "I, I'd better go to the magistrate's court."

Hao Guozi looked at him in surprise.

The corners of Gu Xiaojia's mouth moved, and he finally said, "Oh, then I'll go back to the Young Master."

"Wait." Hao Guozi suddenly remembered that he was going to walk away from that?? Out of the magistrate's court today, and if Tao Mo was there, she might have to change her mind again with a few words from?? It would be better to let him go trekking with Gu She and save him the worries of the future. "Young Master, Young Master Gu has taken us in for so many days and it's rare for us to be invited, it would be too impersonal for you to refuse." He said righteously.

Tao Mo was slightly appalled.

Hao Guozi continued, "The magistrate's court has Master Jin and Master Mu, can handle most of the work, so nothing can go wrong. If anything happens, I'll just come and report it as soon as possible."

"But...” Tao Mo hesitated.




Gu Xiaojia thought that since Gu She had extended the invitation, he must have wanted him to go, so he helpfully said, "It's not far, and one trip won't be upended things."

Tao Mo's heart of refusal was already not firm and wavered, so where he could stand the instigation of the two of them, he only struggled a little and agreed.
