Chapter 20 - Misfortunes are not alone
Old Tao learned that Tao Mo had come back from Gu She’s office and came to ask immediately.
Tao Mosui came together to discuss what happened today.
After listening to the old pottery, Chang Shu breathed a sigh of relief: “This ending is not bad.”
Tao Mo’s eyes widened and said: “The lives of two people are not bad? Mrs. Tong’s white hair sent to black-haired men, it can’t be more miserable.”
Old Tao Qian smiled and said: “The young master said yes.”
Tao Mo thought for a while and said, “But Gu She’s views are similar to yours.”
Tao Tao said: “Master is praising me?”
Tao Mo said blankly: “Where?”
“Gu She is a master apprentice of Master Hammer. He is well-known in Tanyang County. Can I have a similar opinion with him?
“In my heart, the old Tao is also amazing.” Tao Mo said honestly. Lao Tao did a lot of things quietly. Even if he never said it, it did not mean that he did not know. He knew more about the hard work behind these things.
Old Tao Mianlu was gratified, “These two cases are not light or heavy, even though the truth is clear, but the young master still needs to be cautious when he decides the case. Remember to take into account Tong Fu’s face.”
“Face?” Tao Mo froze for a moment, then immediately realized, “You can rest assured that I will not let Tong girl and Cai Fengyuan’s things spread.” This is not related to other people, why should others let others chew their tongues. He went to Mr. Hammer’s mansion just once, and he rumors, if this thing really spreads, wouldn’t it disturb Tong girl’s tranquility underground?
He pondered for a while. How about splitting these two cases? Anyway, outsiders do not know the relationship between Cai Fengyuan and Tong girl, and Tong Fu will naturally cover this matter strictly, and will never spread it.
He looked at Lao Tao and was about to express his thoughts, thinking about tomorrow’s appointment with Gu She, and immediately swallowed it back, vaguely saying, “I still have to consider this matter.”
Old Tao smiled: “This is natural. The master thought slowly, I’ll go to the kitchen to see.”
“Okay.” After he left, Tao Mo was relieved. He and Gu She can say very few things, maybe this can say a few more words.
I spent a night and a half waiting.
After noon, Hao Guoguo went back and forth between the gate and the study.
At the time of Shen Shen, Tao Mo’s buttocks could no longer stand, and he stood in the courtyard looking at the direction of the gate.
Hao Guoguo saw him standing alone, afraid he was tired, and said, “I don’t know when Gu Gongzi will come. Master, you might as well sit in the yard and slowly wait for a pot of tea?”
“Wait slowly? I’m terribly anxious, how slow?” Tao Mo scratched his head.
Hao Guoguo shook his head straight, “Master, you can’t do this. You will be eaten by Gu Gongzi in the future, you can’t turn over.”
Tao Mo muttered: “He was smarter than I was.”
“Although this is said, you should not be so obvious.” Hao Guoguo saw that he could not hear it, and persuaded another way. “If you rely on Gu Gongzi in everything, Gu Gongzi will find the young master boring. “
“Boring? Will it?” Tao Moguo was really worried.
Seeing that he was persuaded, Hao Guoguo nodded and said, “Gu Gongzi’s man is hard to talk about.”
“But the last time I refuted him, he didn’t look happy.”
Hao Guoguo’s eyes widened, “Master refuted him?”
Tao Mo was greatly annoyed, “I didn’t mean it.”
“Haha…” Hao Guoguo rubbed his hands, “Young Master did a good job. You can rest assured that Gu Gongzi has always been ecstatic, even if he is happy, it is difficult to see.”
Tao Mo hesitated and said: “Is that happy?”
“It’s happy to be happy,” Hao Guoguo said, “so the young master must not be polite with him.”
Although Tao Mo felt something was wrong, he could not tell what was wrong.
Hao Guoguo turned and jumped towards the gate again, “I’ll see if he’s here.”
Tao Mowu thought for a moment and suddenly said to himself: “He didn’t see Gu She’s expression at that time, how did he know he was happy?”
Few items.
Hao Guoguo walked in slowly.
Tao Mo was disappointed and said: “Not yet?”
“No, it’s already here.” Hao Guoguo still acted very leisurely.
Tao Mo froze for a while and rushed out, but was stopped by Hao Guoguo.
“What are you doing?” he stunned.
Hao Guoguo said: “The last time I went to see him on behalf of the young master, he put on a shelf for a long time. This time he sent it to the door, and the young master should not act too eagerly.”
“However, I am really anxious.” Tao Mo broke his finger and ran away without a trace.
Hao Guoguo sighed and turned to catch up slowly. At the door, I saw that Gu She’s carriage was dragging his shadow, and he turned his wheels and left.
“Master!” he shouted.
A head suddenly stretched out from the cowl. Gu Xiaojia made a pig nose for him.
Hao Guoguo stomped with anger.
Tao Mo sat in the car, thinking absently about Hao Guoguo’s words. Since he met Gu She, he rarely listened to Gu She’s words, could it be that he was so dumb because he thought he was too boring?
“What are you thinking?” Gu Sheman asked casually.
“You.” Tao Mo answered honestly.
Gu She raised her eyebrows and said, “What do you want?”
Tao Modao: “Think, think what I should say before it is not boring.”
Gu She raised her mouth slightly, “When did I say that you are boring?”
Tao Mo’s eyes lit up.
Gu She took it lightly, “However, I never said you were funny.”
Tao Mo blankly said: “Is it interesting or boring?”
“Perhaps,” Gu She seemed to laugh, “between the two.”
Tao Mo seemed more at a loss.
Gu She opened the topic and said, “How are you going to close Cai Fengyuan’s case?”
Tao Modao: “Whether it is martyred or not, he always commits suicide, and he can’t complain about others.”
Gu Shedao said: “He is dead.”
Tao Mo suddenly wavered in his heart, wondering whether he should refute “interestingly” or “boringly” silent. He lifted the curtains and looked at the scenery outside the window. As he saw the streets became more familiar, he couldn’t help but ask, “Shall we go to Tongfu?”
Gu Shedao: “Not bad.”
Tao Mo tentatively said: “For Cai Fengyuan’s case?”
“No.”
“That’s… Girl Tong’s case?”
Gu Shedao: “It’s okay to say so.”
Tao Mo was still waiting to ask, but Gu She truncated and said, “Is it thirsty?”
“A little bit.” Tao Mo looked at him with his eyes shut.
Gu She did not make tea as he expected, “Since that is the case, save some water.”
Save some water?
Tao Mo took a lot of trouble for this sentence, and the car arrived at the door of Tongfu, and then he made a swift move. Gu Shu’s phrase “save some water” is equivalent to “shut up”, and he blushed.
Gu Xiaojia looked at Tao Mo with a red face and got out of the car. He looked at Gu She suspiciously, “Son, are you…”
Gu She looked back at him indifferently.
“…It’s okay.” Gu Xiaojia turned to knock on the door.
Tong’s concierge was no stranger to their visits, and they hurried in and finished, and led them into the door.
Near the hall, there was a young woman present with the Tong family.
Although the three sat down, they were silent.
Gu She took the lead in entering the entry barrier.
When the young woman saw him, her dignified face was slightly slow, and she nodded, “Brother Gu.”
Master Tong woke up like a dream and stood up and said: “Gu Gongzi, Master Tao.”
The young woman looked at Tao Mo and was surprised, “Can this be the newly appointed county grandfather?”
Tao Modao: “Exactly.”
The young woman said: “I am Yang Weeping Willow. My father Yang Chuiyi.”
Gu She saw that Tao Mo was unresponsive and explained: “The daughter of the teacher.”
Tao Mo surprised: “Apart from Mr. Hammer, do you have another famous teacher?”
The young woman froze for a moment, and there was a smile in her eyes, “My father’s surname is Yang Minghui, and he is Mr. Hammer.”
Tao Mo embarrassed himself.
Gu She asked the young woman, “Why are you here?”
The young woman looked at Mrs. Tong, “I’m going to ask my aunt for two things.”
Mrs. Tong turned pale.
Master Tong waved: “I will talk about this later.”
The young woman said: “Rarely Brother and Tao are present. Some things are better explained clearly. What do you say? Aunt?”
Mrs. Tong said nothing.
Master Tong said with a deep face: “I will explain this to myself later.”
The young woman narrowed her eyes, “I talk about rules in Yangxian County. If there is any unidentifiable dispute, it can be judged by the litigant. Otherwise, I will send it to the government according to the law.”
Hearing the word Guanfu, Tao Mo’s spirit rose slightly.
