39, inextricably linked (3)(1/2)

There were indeed several holes on the roof of the county government. The most serious one was Tao Mo's house, which was almost open.

The broken tiles that fell had been cleaned up, but traces of damage could be seen everywhere in the room. Tao Mo discovered that his room was so bright that it was difficult to adapt for a while. He looked up at the blue sky and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"Young Master, natural disasters are inevitable, don't take them to heart. I'll pack your luggage for you." The wood has already been done, and even if you are unwilling to do so, it will be in vain. Hao Guozi took out the package he used to move to Tanyang County and packed it up wholeheartedly.

Tao Mo looked at his busy figure and felt unreal. Do you really want to move into Gu's mansion? When he thought of Gu She, his heart changed back and forth from cold to hot.

"Young Master? Do you carry the itchy stick?" Hao Guozi placed the itchy stick horizontally, but always exposed one end.

"I think," Tao Mo said slowly, "I'd better not go?"

Hao Guozi's eyes lit up, "Have you thought about it?"

Tao Mo said: "It will also cause trouble if you go."

"Where is the trouble for the young master? After becoming the county magistrate, the young master kept solving the trouble for them?" Seeing that he was hesitant, Hao Guozi knew that he wanted to get close to Gu She very much, and finally felt a little reluctant. He let out: "Actually, it's not a big deal to stay for a few days. According to Master Mu, that Gu She is also a little connected in Tanyang County. If he can make friends with him, it will be beneficial for the young master to take root in Tanyang County in the future."

Tao Mo said: "Actually, I have no friendship with Gu She." Even though I want to get close, the closer I get, the shorter I feel. Gu She is like an insurmountable mountain, which can be looked up to and admired, but it is still difficult to approach the peak.

Hao Guozi's lips moved and she whispered: "I think that Gu She is still different to the young master."

Tao Mo's eyes lit up slightly, and then he said depressedly: "He is a good person."

...

Hao Guozi really couldn't connect the person with a cold face to a good person, but seeing Tao Mo's appearance of muddy feet, he couldn't bear to pour cold water, so he had to say, "If the young master doesn't want to go, it's better to live in my room. I'll just find a place to squeeze in."

Mu Chun happened to come in from outside the door and saw the parcel and his eyes lit up, "Has he packed it up?"

Hao Guozi said, "Young Master doesn't want to go anymore."

"Don't want to go?" Mu Chun smiled kindly, "Why?"

Tao Mo said: "I am not close to Gu She..."

"The county magistrate is his parents' official, and Gu She is the people of the county. How can he say that he is not a relative or a good person?" Mu Chun said.

Tao Mo said: "But I don't have a deep friendship with Gu She."

Mu Chun smiled and said, "I can see that Mr. Gu and his boss have a deep relationship."

Tao Mo wondered, "But he has never said anything?"

"Really never?" Mu Chun said, "Although Mr. Gu is cherishing his words like gold, every word is absolutely gem." People like Gu She will never talk nonsense. Since it is not nonsense, every word is gem.

Tao Mo thought about it and felt that although Gu She didn't say much to him, when he thought about it carefully, it was indeed very meaningful.

Mu Chun said: "A man stands in the world, and his promise is worth a thousand gold. Since you have an appointment with Mr. Gu in Gu's house first, you should keep your promise. It is not a real man to do what he wants to do."

Tao Mo was filled with guilt when he was said.

Hao Guozi looked at Mu Chun suspiciously and said, "Why is Master Mu dedicated to pushing the young master to Gu She?"

Mu Chun said without changing his face: "Since the boss hired me as his master, I must give advice to the boss. Tanyang County lawyers gathered, and Mr. Yichao and Lin Zhengyong's hands were almost the same day. Although they were not incompatible with each other, they were scheming and calculating, and would never give the boss a chance to gain profit. If the boss wants to be successful, they might even be expelled by them." His words were not alarmist. Before, the county magistrate was demoted and moved. "So, instead of wandering between the two, it is better to use one of the hands to gain a foothold."

Hao Guozi heard it right and nodded repeatedly.

Tao Mo frowned and said, "I don't want to use Gu She."

"Gu She is smart and smart, probably no less than Mr. Yu Yichu. If the boss wants to use him, it is probably..." Mu Chunshou said nothing, but the meaning of it is self-evident.

Hao Guozi was confused by him. "Didn't you just say that you would use one of the hands to gain a foothold?"

Mu Chun said: "Of course, this is just my opinion, but it is easy to know and difficult to do. If you want to do it, your boss is more proficient in calculating than Gu She."

Hao Guozi stopped talking. This time it was not because he wanted to gain other people's ambitions and destroy his prestige, but because he had self-knowledge. In terms of plot, his young master may not be ranked in Tanyang County.

"Or," Mu Chun continued slowly, "treat with sincerity."

Tao Mo hurriedly said, "I have no intention of playing with Gu She."

“…”

Hao Guozi looked up at the sky.

The sky is high, blue and clear.

Mu Chun coughed dryly and said, "I believe in my boss."

Tao Mo knew that he used the words inappropriately and said embarrassedly: "I mean, I don't have the will to use it."

"A gentleman is open and honest. Since the boss has no intention of making use of it, why should he be afraid of going to the Gu Mansion to stay?" Mu Chun walked around a big circle and finally got back to the topic.

Tao Mo wanted to speak but stopped. Although he had no intention of making use of it, he might not have no intention of planning.

Seeing that Hao Guozi said this, he seemed to be unable to gain a foothold in Tanyang, and he in turn advised: "It's just a few days to stay there. The young master just needs to go to sleep there at night and go back to the county government office for half a day."

Mu Chun raised his eyebrows.

Tao Mo's eyes wandered between the two, and after a long time, he nodded and said, "That's it."

However, in order to show his sincerity in staying, he and Hao Guozi went out to the street to personally buy a gift, and then came to the door with a bag.

Gu Xiaojia seemed to know when they would come, so he waited at the door early in the morning. Seeing them carrying large bags and small bags, half of his head exposed, he couldn't help but curl his lips and said, "You guys are taking all your belongings to prepare for permanent residence, right?"

Hao Guozi was about to choke back, but Tao Mo pulled her sleeve.

Tao Mo took the gift forward, "I don't have any respect."

Gu Xiaojia had seen many gifts, but not many were so ugly. But he knew that his son looked at him differently and did not dare to keep a difficult time, so he nodded to the concierge standing beside him.

The concierge immediately picked it up.

Tao Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Follow me, I'll take you to the guest room." Gu Xiaojia turned around and walked in.

Tao Mo and Hao Guozi hurriedly followed.

There are many houses in Gu's mansion, and Gu Xiaojia specially chose Liuxianju, the farthest from Qingyinju where Gu She is located, to settle them.

Hao Guozi was so troubled by his turn left and right, and couldn't help saying, "Why do you live so far?"

Gu Xiaojia said: "There is no way, the mansion is so big. It takes half an hour to walk around. I have already picked a very close building. If you can't remember, I will draw a map with you."

Tao Mo smiled and said, "Thank you. But I remember it."

Gu Xiaojia was slightly surprised. He had just deliberately made many roads back and forth, and he might not remember them even if he walked again. He actually remembered them all? "Are you sure?" He was skeptical.

Tao Mo nodded.

Hao Guozi proudly glanced at Gu Xiaojia.

Gu Xiaojia said, "Since you remember, I won't come to pick you up for dinner at dusk. Just follow the way you just found the main hall."

Tao Mo thanked repeatedly.

After Gu Xiaojia left, Hao Guozi complained: "It's obviously a servant, but he's so proud that he's like his prince and grandson."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Tao Mo rebuked lightly.

Hao Guozi said: "Young Master really remembers all those roads? Why do I feel that some roads seem to have been walking twice?"

Tao Mo said: "I have indeed walked through that garden and those two bridges twice."

Hao Guozi said hatefully: "I knew that Gu Xiaojia was uneasy!"

Tao Mo said: "We are relying on others, don't worry about it."

Hao Guozi looked at him with relief. Although he knew that the young master had matured a lot since the master's affairs, this feeling was particularly strong at this moment. "Yes, young master."

The sun sets west and the lights are on.

Tao Mo took Hao Guozi through the arches and finally arrived at the main hall that Gu Xiaojia mentioned.

They thought that they were the only two of them in the hall for meals, but they didn't want Gu She to be there.

"Please." Gu She said lightly.

Tao Mo swept away the loneliness under the roof of others and sat down happily.

When Hao Guozi saw Gu Xiaojia standing aside to serve him, he also stood behind Tao Mo.

Tao Mo looked at Gu She with a gaze and waited for him to ask some polite words such as how he lived or whether he was used to it. But after waiting for a long time, he only waited until Gu She picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of eggplant and put it in her mouth.

“…”

Seeing him staring at him blankly, Gu She couldn't help but look over.

Four eyes are opposite.

Tao Mo's face turned red.

Gu Sho raised his eyebrows, "Hot?"

Tao Mo said: "It's fine." He hurriedly picked up the chopsticks and put several eggplants into his mouth.

Gu She stopped talking.

After dinner in silence, Tao Mo was thinking about finding a topic when he heard Gu She say, "Can you play chess?"

Tao Mo nodded quickly.

Gu Xiaojia set up the chessboard tactfully.
