111. Living and working in peace and contentment (3)
The case between the Assassin and the Wu couple came to an end.
Tao Mo looked at the dark night outside and recalled all the daytime today, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Young Master."
"Young Master."
Hao Guozi and Gu Xiaojia spoke at the same time.
Tao Mo was shocked, hurriedly put away his smile, coughed dryly, "What's the matter?"
Gu She didn't answer, but also looked at them.
Gu Xiaojia hit Hao Guozi's arm.
Hao Guozi had no choice but to speak, "Where is the young master going to rest tonight?"
Tao Mo was stunned for a moment, obviously never thought of this problem. Although he and Gu She had become secretly married, they were secretly. One of them lived in the county government and the other in the Gu Mansion, so naturally they could not face each other day and night like other couples. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel sad.
Seeing that Tao Mo didn't say anything, Gu Xiaojia and Hao Guozi had to look at Gu She with eager eyes.
Gu Shedao: "Of course it's Gu's family."
Everyone in the Gu family knew that they had a wife, but the county government still kept it hidden. If he stayed, it would be inconvenient to go in and out.
Tao Mowei said: "But..."
Gu Shedao: "Didn't you stay in Gu's Mansion before? Now you just turn your stay into permanent residence."
Tao Mo said: "It was because the roof of the county government leaked at that time."
It just so happened that Lao Tao had just sent someone to send a message to Master Jin. After hearing this, he turned around and walked out again.
The others were inexplicably listening to a loud noise, followed by the sparse sound of falling objects.
Tao Mo hurriedly stood up and ran out.
Gu She waved to Gu Xiaojia, and Gu Xiaojia hurriedly chased after him.
Tao Mo couldn't walk too far when running, nor did he dare to turn too hard. He slowly walked into his room, but saw a pile of broken rubble piled on the ground, and a big hole was opened on the roof. Looking up, he could see the stars shining.
"What's going on?" Tao Mo looked at Lao Tao who was holding a candlestick to help him illuminate.
Lao Tao said: "As the young master saw, the roof that was repaired last time was not solid and it was broken again. Fortunately, no one was injured."
"..." Tao Mo said, "Old Tao, your excuse is really... it is really..."
Lao Tao said: "The excuse is not about the old and the new, but only about the effectiveness. Before the roof is repaired, the young master can only continue to live in Gu's house. I will give it to Hao Guozi for a while."
Tao Mo looked at the roof, then looked at it, and reminded him: "If it is repaired, it will be deducted from my salary."
It seems that he still remembers the two crimes that the prefect of Qin Cheng asked him. Lao Tao said: "I know."
Since the roof was broken, Tao Mo "can only" follow Gu She and Gu Mansion to watch.
Hao Guozi packed his luggage and sent it directly into Gu She's room. Sang Xiaotu, who had been sent to serve Tao Mo before, finally came in handy and was re-activated.
Although the two of them have become husband and wife, Tao Mo is still nervous when he thinks that from now on, they will really lie in the same bed and live in the same house. In his heart, Gu She has always been like white clouds in the sky, high above and cannot be touched. Now, not only has he touched it, but he also has to sleep in the clouds every day. Just thinking about it, he feels sweaty in his palms.
Gu She took off her outer robe and sat on the edge of the bed, looking up at him.
Tao Mo's fingers trembled slightly when he took off his clothes. He wanted to turn around, but he felt that it was too rude and could only lower his head and rub it.
"Come here." Gu Shidao.
Tao Mo's fingers shook, hesitated for a while, and slowly moved to the edge of the bed.
Gu She helped him untied his robe, got up and put it on the shelf, but turned his head and saw Tao Mo lying spontaneously on the bed. His hands were placed flat on his side, his eyes were closed, and his Adam's apple, which kept moving up and down, showed his nervousness at this moment.
Tao Mo found that the bed had not moved for a long time, so he couldn't help but open a gap in his eyes, just in time to meet Gu She's smiling eyes. "I..." His face turned red.
Gu She lay down and helped him pull the quilt, "Go to sleep."
Gu Xiaojia, who had been guarding the outer room, turned off the lights when he heard this and tiptoed out.
Tao Mo was lying stiffly, and his mind began to think about it. While imagining what Gu She looked like lying beside her, he recalled the way he kissed him during the day. Compared with the two, Gu She seemed a little cold at this time.
"I've been tired for a day, have a good rest." Gu She said suddenly.
The cold sound has a different kind of warmth in such a cold night.
Tao Mo grabbed the edge of the quilt with his fingers, but his heart felt sweet. He thought to himself that when his mother was alive, she must have often covered the same quilt with her father, saying the unique personal words between the two. When she moved around, she felt a hand holding her horizontally and hugging him on the waist.
The emotions that finally relaxed were instantly tightened. Tao Mo's face turned red, his toes tense, and he didn't dare to move.
"Do you want to put your feet on my body?" Gu She suddenly said something extremely ridiculous.
Tao Mo shook his head for a long time. Seeing that he had no reaction, he remembered that he might not be able to see it. He said, "No need."
Gu She closed her eyes, and a warm breath pounced on his ears, saying, "If you want to, just do it directly. Don't ask me."
"Oh, okay." Tao Mo took a deep breath and turned his head slowly, trying to see Gu She's expression at this time, but as soon as he touched the pillow on his right cheek, his lips were gently touched. Tao Mo widened his eyes, trying hard to see the expressions of the people around him in the night, but no matter how he looked, he could only see the hazy outline.
"Good night, madam."
The simple four words made Tao Mo's heart, which was hanging in the air, suddenly landed. He stayed quietly in the dark for a while, suddenly leaned over and put his head under Gu She's chin.
...
He hugged Tao Mo's hand and gently patted his back.
Yue Ling left Guangxi for more than half a month. He stayed there before just to prepare for Gu She's marriage. Now that Gu She and Tao Mo have married, they say goodbye.
Gu She knew that he was willing to return home, but he did not try to keep him. Tao Mo secretly felt that the hospitality was not good, so he asked Sang Xiaotu to buy some local products from Tanyang and take them back to him.
After Yue Ling left, the position of the headmaster in the mansion became empty again. Although Gu Xiaojia had been housekeeper Gu's house before, he thought that now that he had a wife, he naturally shouldn't have him to do it alone, so he learned to ask Tao Mo in everything, which made Tao Mo miserable. He knew nothing about managing the mansion. In the past, there was a housekeeper in the Tao Mansion, but later he had Lao Tao around him. Therefore, seeing that Gu Xiaojia had asked too much, he had to push Lao Tao out.
Lao Tao was a good at starting a business, decisive and unrestrained, and even more tough and stricter than Yue Ling's.
Gu Xiaojia felt uncomfortable at first, but later when he saw that he was in good order, he secretly admired him, but he never said anything on his face.
Lao Tao did not monopolize the power. Every time he did something, he would bring Gu Xiaojia by his side and let him observe it. In his heart, although Tao Mo entered the Gu Mansion, his family was still in the county government and he had no reason to interfere in his affairs. However, seeing that Gu Xiaojia was not smooth and steady in his past, he was willing to sharpen him. Fortunately, although Gu Xiaojia was flamboyant, he was very smart. Soon after, he saw Lao Tao's intentions and was willing to learn.
Speaking of which, Master Jin had spread the suspected murder of his daughter Wu Qian as Gu She said, and it actually took effect. In just two days, Wu Qian really came to the door.
Seeing that Wu Qian surrendered, the Wu couple knew that the situation was hopeless and explained the whole story.
It turned out that what Shi Qianshan said was not false. This was indeed a scam from beginning to end. Wu Qian hit the wall that day and was just unconscious. After Shi Qianshan left, the Wu couple immediately rescued her and hid her in the mountains. As the case became more and more trials, the Wu couple revealed more and more flaws. They were afraid that the truth would be revealed in the end, so they decided that the thirty-six strategies would be the best strategy and escape with Wu Qian. Unexpectedly, Cui Jiong had already ambushed and caught them before the Wu couple could find Wu Qian.
Wu Qian ate all the food on the mountain and couldn't stand being hungry, so she had to go down the mountain. However, she heard the news that the Wu couple was arrested and their lives were in danger, so she came to surrender regardless of the situation.
But to their surprise, the messenger behind him was not the ninth prince they were the one they were for, but a wealthy businessman.
Master Jin separated the three of them and painted the appearance of the rich businessman according to what they said.
Finally, three similar paintings were drawn.
Tao Mo and Lao Tao looked at each other after looking at the painting.
Master Jin said, "Do you recognize it?"
Lao Tao said: "Huang Guangde."
Gu She bent her mouth, "It's time to invite Shi Qianshan to come and sit down."
