27. Misfortunes do not come singly (9)
Although Tao Mo was in a hurry to enter the door, he had to stop and turn around.
The man from the Liang family passed Cui Jiong who was about to stop him, clasped his fists from afar and said, "Please deal with this matter more!"
Tao Mo said solemnly: "I should do my best."
The Liang family man was still going to say something, but he was taken away by Cui Jiong and several officers.
Tao Mo felt it was inappropriate and was about to step forward, but Mu Chun deliberately or unintentionally blocked the way: "Sir, please come here."
Seeing that although Cui Jiong took the people away, he was still gentle in behavior, Tao Mo turned around and started with confidence.
Hao Guozi was looking at the carriage outside. When he saw Mu Chun following Tao Mo leisurely, he couldn't help but feel a little jealous. Although Mu Chun was introduced by Lao Tao, he didn't look like he had lived in a long time, and he didn't know what it was.
Tao Mo naturally didn't know his thoughts. He was listening to Gu She and Mr. Tong with all his attention at this moment.
Gu She has always been taciturn, so Mr. Tong spoke a lot of times when they talked.
After Gu Xiaojia directed the servants of Tong's mansion to move the tiger whip and bull whip into Tong's mansion, he stood honestly behind Gu She.
After Mr. Tong expressed his gratitude and asked about Mr. Yideng’s recent situation, he couldn’t help but lose his words.
The old god Gu She was sitting on the ground, neither the intention of starting a new chapter to relieve the situation nor the intention of getting up to say goodbye.
Mr. Tong had no choice but to lead the conversation to Tao Mo.
"Mr. Tao, please deal with Miss Qiu Er's marriage." Mr. Tong said.
This is the second time Tao Mo heard "Zhou Xuan" today and said: "Although it is said that marriage is the order of parents and the words of the matchmaker, we should also pay attention to the first and then the arrival..."
When Mr. Tong heard his words were not good for him, he quickly cut off and said, "The Qiu family and the Liang family agreed that it would be two years. The Liang family breached the contract and did not come, but the Qiu family cannot blame the Qiu family for marrying the second lady separately."
Tao Mo stammered: "Actually, it's nothing more to marry separately, it's just..."
Mr. Tong's eyes lit up, "Sir, too, agree with the Qiu family?" He deliberately said to the Qiu family, but didn't say anything about him, just didn't want to involve himself too early.
Tao Mo said: "But Mr. Tong already has Mrs. Tong..."
When talking about Mrs. Tong, Mr. Tong remembered the beautiful and poor Tong Yinghong. His face tightened and he became dark again, "I will not treat her badly."
Tao Mo didn't know whether she was referring to Mrs. Tong or Miss Qiu Er when he was talking about.
Gu Shetu said, "If I remember correctly, Miss Qiu Er seems to be a few years younger than Miss Tong."
No matter how thick-skinned Mr. Tong was a little embarrassed to mention this matter in front of such three young young people, and said, "At the age of nineteen, it's time to get married. With the lessons of Yinghong's past, how can I let her repeat the car?"
Tao Mo whispered: "Actually, wouldn't it be better to find someone of the same age?"
Mr. Tong looked down, "I'm afraid this is not the final word for Lord Tao."
Gu Shedao: "I heard that the Qiu family wanted to send their daughter in from the main door."
Mr. Tong was about to say yes, but suddenly remembered something, and his face changed.
Tao Mo looked at Gu She in a daze. He vaguely felt that Gu She seemed to have grabbed something, but he couldn't think of what he had caught.
"Stop your wife and remarry, it seems to be a forbidden thing in our court." Mu Chun finally spoke.
Mr. Tong's face looked even more ugly. Mrs. Tong originally disagreed with him, but after Tong Yinghong's incident, Mr. Tong also made up his mind and said bluntly that if she made trouble again, she would just break the divorce letter. Because of these ruthless words, Mrs. Tong swallowed her anger and stopped saying anything, just to maintain the status of the main wife. If the Qiu family was not eager to repay the debt for their son, they originally did not intend to marry their daughter as a folk remedy. After all, they were innocent families. It would be a big grievance to marry a man of their fatherhood, let alone a side house? So the two families discussed it over and over again, and finally decided to marry the three books and six lis to the main wife.
I originally thought it was just a concubine, but it was very simple, but I had to involve the Liang family first, but now I have to stop my wife and remarry. You should know that stop my wife and remarry is a crime. If I can't make a fuss, I will have to sue.
As he thought about it, cold sweat came out from his forehead.
Gu She threw several glances at Mu Chun, as if wondering where he came out.
Mr. Tong asked this idea directly.
Mu Chun bowed and said, "In Xia Mu Chun, he is the new magistrate invited by the county magistrate."
Tao Mo was stunned, but did not deny it. He originally wanted Mu Chun to succeed Lao Tao as the general manager, but now he felt wronged. Mu Chun is not only a talented person, but also seems to have a good understanding of the law. He is indeed a talented person who is an aide.
"Oh, it turns out to be the master." Mr. Tong had already been refuted after a while. "I don't know where Gu Shiniang heard the news that I wanted to stop my wife and remarry. I was Mr. Yideng's wife and uncle after all. How could he do such a thing that knew the law and violated the law? I'm afraid that some civilians are gossiping and causing me to be injustice." He called Gu She from "Good Master Gu" to "Good Nephew" to win over relationships, and reminded them of their seniority.
Gu She raised her eyebrows and said, "I heard it was from Qiu's mansion."
Mr. Tong's smile froze. From the incident of Tong Yinghong's suicide, he could vaguely feel that Gu She was targeting him. However, the feeling at that time was not as strong as it is now, so it was just vaguely, but now it has shed the layer of veil covered, clearly.
"I'm afraid there is any misunderstanding." He was speechless.
"Oh." Gu She replied lightly.
This cup of tea made Mr. Tong feel uncomfortable and soon found a reason to see him off.
Gu She seemed to have achieved her purpose, and she would not stay for a long time and left happily.
Tao Mo originally wanted to go up and talk to each other, but when Gu She's carriage disappeared at the end of the alley, he didn't even come up with an excuse to talk to each other.
Seeing that he was depressed, Mu Chun offered to him: "It's too late today, so why not let me take the initiative and ask the adults to go to a nearby restaurant?"
When Hao Guozi heard about the restaurant sitting, he came and hurriedly introduced: "The most famous restaurant nearby is Xianweiju."
"Then I'll help you lead the way." He lifted the curtain and got into the car.
Tao Mo followed up, but felt that Mu Chun was more like the county magistrate than him. He remembered Mu Chun's previous words in Tong Mansion and asked, "Do you really want to be a master?"
Mu Chun smiled and said, "Do you dislike me?"
"Of course not." Tao Mo quickly denied, "I just think that a person like you doesn't look like a master."
"What does that look like?" Mu Chun asked with interest.
Tao Mo thought for a while and said, "Like a famous young man."
Mu Chun was stunned and said dryly: "Sir, I'm over the award."
Tao Mo said: "It's not that it's too much, it's really alike. And it's the kind of person who looks very outstanding among the famous young masters." After he said that, he found that his words were a bit frivolous and hurriedly added, "I just sighed, and there was no other meaning."
Mu Chun smiled, "I can trust this naturally."
Tao Mo saw his smile as graceful as the bright moon and breeze, and his eyes were slightly straightened.
Mu Chun let him watch, neither happy nor angry.
The carriage soon arrived at the gate of Xianweiju.
Tao Mo just got off the car, but he didn't expect another acquaintance to come towards him.
"Hey, Lord Tao." The man was stunned when he saw Tao Mo and quickly saluted.
Tao Mo said: "Young Master Lu."
The one who came to Lu Zhenxue. Because Tao Mo personally admitted in his mansion that he was ignorant of his eyes last time, he was a little embarrassed when he saw Tao Mo.
"It's rare that the Lord is interested in the atmosphere. If I don't think I'm prone to take the initiative, why don't I be the one?" Lu Zhenxue said this with a bit of guilt that he himself never noticed. Although Tao Mo never mentioned the matter that day, in fact, they have never met since then, but he went to a firm place in his heart and always felt that he had done it that day. So he wanted to treat the guests to repay it today.
Mu Chun had certainly touched the background of Lu Zhenxue before coming. Basically, in his eyes, there was no need for anyone else to pay attention except Gu She. Therefore, before Tao Mo could speak, he took the initiative to refuse: "But unfortunately. Lord Tao has agreed to my invitation today."
"That's really a coincidence." Lu Zhenxue said lukewarmly.
Hao Guozi could not hold back when smelling the food scent of fairy smell, "We might as well go in first and then talk slowly."
Lu Zhenxuedao: "Okay."
As soon as they entered, they found that they had to say it slowly if they wanted to say it slowly -
The fairy smell was filled with only the last table.
