The ox cart arrived at Gu's mansion first. Tao Mo hurriedly got out and briefly explained the matter. He asked the ward to take the food box and send the cart to the foot of Longshan Mountain to pick up Gu She. After thinking about it, he was afraid that they would not find a place to let Gu She wait, so he simply sent the villagers who drove the ox cart with him, and he ran back to the county government with his legs.

The county yamen runners did not recognize him at first, and thought that the refugees who came from somewhere were rushed to the scene. They finally found out that they were their own county magistrate, and they had already alarmed Master Jin and Hao Guozi, who were sitting inside.

Hao Guozi looked at Tao Mo's dirty look in surprise and said worriedly: "Young Master, have you met a bandit?"

Master Jin said slowly: "Tanyang County is very peaceful in a radius of hundreds of miles, and there are no bandits."

Tao Mo wiped his face and said anxiously: "There are no bandits, but there are car thieves." He was afraid of delaying the time to pursue the thief, so he pulled Master Jin and explained at the door.

Master Jin frowned and said, "The Gu family is very rich, and losing a car is not a big deal. Why should the boss take care of it?" Sangtou Village is located in a remote area and there is no life for people to interact with each other on weekdays. Those who enter the village from the county should also recognize the Gu family's car and never dare to take action. After all, from that road only leads to the county town. Once you enter the county town, you will fall into the trap and you will have no luck. However, there is a valley on the other side of Sangtou Village, so it is not a problem to drive the carriage in and hide for three or seven days.

Tao Mo said: "Since this incident happened in Tanyang County, it certainly has something to do with me."

Master Jin had long been accustomed to his temper and said casually: "Since that's the case, the boss will send the yamen runners to the county town to inquire, and then go to Sangtou Village to see if there are any other clues." Such a big car is eye-catching everywhere you go.

Tao Mo nodded and said, "That's what I mean."

Master Jin saw that he was talking, but his feet were still firmly standing there, shook his head and went to find Cui Jiong.

Seeing that after talking for a long time but Mu Chun came out, Tao Mo said in confusion: "Where is Master Mu?"

Hao Guozi said, "Ah, Master Mu left early this morning, saying that the boss had something urgent to do. He wanted to rush back. He originally wanted to say goodbye to the young master, but he didn't want the young master to go out for a walk with Gu Sho. He really couldn't wait, so he had to ask me to send a message. Oh, he also said that Old Tao would come back soon, so he didn't have to worry about the young master."

Tao Mo was reluctant to leave, "Did he say he would not come back?"

Hao Guozi said: "I didn't say this. But he has a boss. He probably has to do errands for the boss in the future, so he is afraid he will be unable to have free time."

Tao Mo nodded, sighed, and then smiled and said, "Old Tao is coming back. We have to repair the roof quickly. We can't let him follow him to live in Gu's mansion." When he said that Gu's mansion, he couldn't help but think of Gu She, and he sighed silently.

Hao Guozi said, "Young Master doesn't ask about Yiyu?"

Without mentioning it, Tao Mo almost forgot about this matter and asked hurriedly: "Has he settled?"

"Master Mu originally wanted to settle him in the inn before leaving, but Mr. Yiyu said that he had already chosen the house and was going to move in today. Hey, that's not a coincidence. I saw that he had bought the house a long time ago, but I just wanted to stay in the county government office and not leave."

When Tao Mo heard that he had a place to go, he was too lazy to pay attention to whether he had been in the county government for another purpose or had nowhere to go, so he said, "I'll go in and take a shower first, and I'll notify me immediately if there is any news on the other side of Master Jin."

Hao Guozi agreed to go in and help him arrange the program.

Tao Mo returned to the room and the size of the roof hole was the same as before. The wind whistled from the open hole, making people tremble.

The bronze mirror opposite reflects his embarrassed self. His hair is as messy as a bird's nest, and his face and body are dark as if he has just taken out a bird's nest. No wonder even the yamen runners at the county yamen cannot recognize him. Could it be that the reason why Gu She ignored him was because he thought he was too dirty? But if he thought he was dirty, he should have despised him before in front of Mo Daoting Pavilion on the mountainside, why did he say so much to him?

He looked at himself in the mirror and scratched his scalp, but he had no clue.

Just as I was thinking, the servant had already brought hot water.

He lay in the bathtub, staring at his two thighs that were red from water, and his fingers unconsciously slashed on it. When he came to his senses, he realized that what he had drawn was Gu Xianzhi's three.

Gu Qianzhi.

Strings.

He raised his head, leaned against the edge of the barrel, and murmured unconsciously. The way Gu She smiled slightly appeared in his mind. His mood gradually became more relaxed, and then he felt a wave of sleepiness.

Even though he knew it was not the time to fall asleep, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, and even Hao Guozi didn't pay attention when he pushed the door in.

"Young Master." Hao Guozi called softly.

Tao Mo's eyelids moved and did not open immediately.

Hao Guozi saw that he was tired and hesitated whether to wake him up. He didn't care whether Gu She had found the carriage, but was afraid that he would catch a cold in the water.

After a while, Tao Mo spontaneously opened his eyes, saw Hao Guozi's hesitant expression, and quickly cheered up and said, "How is it? Is there any news?"

Hao Guozi shook his head and said, "The yamen runners are looking for it in the city, but there is no news yet."

Tao Mo said: "Then is there any news about Gu's family?"

Hao Guozi said: "At this time, the carriage was about to set off from Gu's mansion. Where can there be news so soon? Or the young master reviewed the news of the mansion first, so that he could rest." He couldn't bear to see him look haggard.

Tao Mo's lips moved slightly, and finally shook his head, "Let's go back to the county government tonight."

Hao Guozi keenly noticed what seemed to be happening between Tao Mo and Gu She. Could it be because he lost the carriage? He tentatively said: "Are you very unhappy that Mr. Gu lost the carriage?"

Tao Mo nodded, shook his head and said, "It doesn't seem like he's angry about throwing a carriage."

"Why are you angry?" Hao Guozi said in surprise.

Tao Mo opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything, so he could only sigh quietly.

Hao Guozi reached into the wooden barrel, touched Shui Wen and said, "The water is cold, I'll take another bucket."

"No need." Tao Mo said with both hands pressing the edge of the wooden barrel, "I'll get up now."

When Hao Guozi heard him say this, he was about to turn around and walk out when he heard a series of footsteps outside. Then the yamen runner shouted loudly at the door: "The carriage is found."

brush.

Hao Guozi turned around and saw Tao Mo standing up naked, and said in surprise: "Seriously? Where?"

The yamen runner said, "Just outside the city, the car was thrown away, and no thieves were seen."

Hao Guozi hurriedly found clothes to put on Tao Mo and nagged: "Young master, be careful of catching a cold. No matter how anxious you are, you must put on your clothes first."

After hearing what he said, Tao Mo felt a chill on his body. He didn't care that his body had not dried yet, and hurriedly put on his clothes and ran out.

The carriage was indeed Gu Shoo.

Tao Mo checked inside and outside, but there was no one left.

Cui Jiong said: "Sir, should you take the carriage back to the yamen first, or send it directly to Gu's mansion?"

Tao Mo wanted to send it to Gu She so that he could be happy, but he didn't know if this was in line with the rules, so he said, "What do you think?"

Cui Jiong said: "Young Master Gu is the owner, so it is best to ask him to check the lost property in person. If there is nothing short of everything, take the car back first. As for the thieves, we will continue to investigate." The owner this time was Gu She, an important figure in Tanyang County. If he blamed him, all the lawyers under Mr. Yichao will probably squeeze through the county government gate. Therefore, he was particularly concerned. As soon as he received the news, he personally led the team out of the city to search.

Tao Mo was eager to send the carriage back first, so he said, "Young Master Gu is the owner, so there is no reason to let him go there in person. Why not send it to me?"

Cui Jiong thought that it was really unreasonable to bring the stolen goods to the door in person. He thought Tao Mo wanted to flatter Mr. Yishu, and he looked down on him a little bit, and said perfunctorily: "This is more enough to express the adult's feelings, and Mr. Gu must be very happy."

When Tao Mo heard this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, got on the carriage, and drove Hao Guozi to the Gu Mansion.

Gu Xiaojia stared at the closed door, his heart slightly nervous.

Since Gu She came back from Langshan, she went into the room without saying a word. He vaguely felt that the matter was related to Tao Mo, but he couldn't think of the truth. Afterwards, calmly thought about it. Although Tao Mo turned his elbow a little outward today, it was understandable as the county magistrate. Perhaps the young master was angry because the carriage disappeared? I wonder if the news of the carriage being lost and recovered could make him feel better.

He thought this way, stepped forward and whispered: "Young Master, Tao Mo has found the carriage and is waiting outside the mansion."

There was no movement inside for a while.

Gu Xiaojia couldn't help but repeat it again.

Still no response.

Just as he raised his hand and was about to knock on the door, Gu She finally spoke slowly: "I understand.

Gu Xiaojia said, "Then should I send him back first, or, or what?" He remembered that Tao Mo lives under the same roof with him now.

Gu She was silent for a while before saying, "Let him go."
