5. The new official takes office (5)

"Master Jin, just obey." Most scholars are good people, so they can't help but make excuses.

Master Jin's face turned pale, and he could not refute a single sentence when he was talking around his head.

Tao Mo was still waiting for his reply.

Lao Tao had no choice but to say, "Young Master, even if you are eager to be talented, this sentence is a bit inappropriate."

It was not just a bit inappropriate, it was simply a big mistake. Master Jin only hated that he could not stand beside Lao Tao and expressed his life to him.

Tao Mo said depressedly: "Don't use it well?"

"It's not bad." Lao Tao was not easy to point it out in public, but said, "It's just that he used too much force."

Tao Mo said: "Do you want to say that I am willing to take two scoops of water to drink with three thousand waters? Master Jin, are you willing to be the first scoop?"

Scoop? Or prostitute?

Master Jin's face was no longer pale, but blue.

The other scholars laughed in silence.

"Okay." Master Jin's face changed several times, and suddenly he smiled and said without a smile. "Mengde County Master looked down upon, and Jin was flattered. Jin was not a person who acted as a stance to take on Qiao, so he agreed and was willing to work hard for his boss."

The change in attitude of the former county master and the latter boss has shown that he really agreed. But Lao Tao was always a little uneasy. He could see that Master Jin agreed to it for a fight, not really wanting to serve Tao Mo. It was just that things have come to this point, and it was in vain to explain it again. He could only take one step at a time.

When Tao Mo saw Master Jin agreeing, he breathed a sigh of relief. He immediately turned his steps and walked towards the pavilion.

Old Tao frowned casually and followed behind him.

Unfortunately, when Tao Mo arrived, everyone in the pavilion had dispersed.

Tao Mo asked the others unwillingly: "The pavilion was full of people just now, why did it disappear?"

The man said, "Gu She is leaving, so they will naturally follow him."

Tao Mo was upset. It is said that so many people left, and he never knew it. It must be because the people were talking too much and laughing at me just now, so he didn't pay attention.

Seeing Tao Mo's expression was frustrated, Old Tao coughed lightly and said, "It's rare for local literati to gather together. The young master should make more friends, so as to lay the foundation for establishing a stable foundation here."

Tao Mo is in a province. Yes, the future is long, so why should he be anxious for a while?

Thinking of it, he obediently walked towards the place where everyone gathered.

Others were also very curious about the new county master. Seeing that he took the initiative to chat, they welcomed him.

After a while, Lao Tao noticed that Master Jin stood up and said goodbye, and immediately pulled Tao Mo all the way to see him off, and even went to his doorstep with the sedan chair.

Master Jin did not object to Tao Mo's attentiveness, but only said that he would definitely take office after the New Year.

Seeing this, Lao Tao could only be helpless.

When he returned to the county government office, Tao Mo hesitated and refused to get off the sedan chair, "Or why don't we go and visit Mr. Yidai."

"Gu She has another residence, even if she goes to see Mr. Yichu, she will not be able to meet him." Lao Tao said.

Tao Mo said "ah" and looked extremely disappointed.

Lao Tao frowned when he saw it, "Young Master, follow me."

Tao Mo's heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad premonition.

Sure enough, when he entered the study door, Lao Tao immediately threw a cold sentence, "Young Master, do you still remember what you promised in front of the master's grave?"

Tao Mo's face turned pale and he was speechless.

"It is contrary to morality to break the sleeves and divide the peaches. You should not be obsessed with it anymore." Lao Tao's words are sonorous and powerful, hitting Tao Mo's heart, "Isn't the price you paid for your life enough?"

Tao Mo only felt the scenery in front of him swaying. When he came to his senses, he had already bent his legs and knelt on the ground with a bang.

Lao Tao was startled and quickly helped him up and said, "Young Master knows that, why did you give this great gift?"

Tao Mo stood up with his weak legs, shook his head and said, "I don't know." Just as just a moment, his shoulders and legs seemed to be overwhelmed.

"Young Master." Old Tao slightly increased his voice.

"I know." Tao Mo interrupted him and said hurriedly, "I promised my father that he would be a good official. I must be a good official." He spoke shiny and fluently, not knowing whether he was assuring him or reminding him.

When Lao Tao saw that he was pale and looked sad, he couldn't bear to force him anymore, "I'm also for the sake of the young master. That Gu She looked like he was not Yi. If you make friends with him, you're afraid you will suffer a big loss."

Tao Mo's lips twitched and murmured: "I don't know why, but when I see him, my heart beats so hard."

When Lao Tao remembered that Gu She, he had to admit that he was indeed very charming. But no matter how charming his style was, he was also a man. If he was simple and gentle, he might be able to be brought back and kept in the backyard, but judging from his popularity, he wouldn't even be willing to accept Tao Mo when he came to the door.

Thinking of this, his compassion was gone, and he put on another heavy medicine, saying, "I think that man is not good at other men, so he must be bad at Longyang. The best thing is that the young master is better not to tell him what he thinks, otherwise he is afraid... he will be disgusted for nothing."

Tao Mo lowered his head and his shoulders were loose, and he said in a moment: "I understand." He didn't want that man to be looked down upon, let alone disgusted. It was just restraint, so it was so easy.

Lao Tao sighed and said, "The New Year is coming soon, I will go and ask Hao Guozi to get some New Year's goods. This is the first New Year we have celebrated in Tanyang County. We must be lively and lively."

Tao Mo was ashamed and ashamed, and was disheartened. He nodded randomly and went back to the room to sleep.

He was not yet in good condition and felt depressed again, and he started to burn again in the evening.

Hao Guozi remembered that the doctor prescribed last time had not finished taking the medicine, so she boiled it for him to drink.

After drinking, Tao Mo fell asleep again in a drowsy way. By the next day, the fever subsided, but he was still not very energetic and just lay on the bed crookedly and didn't want to get up.

Lao Tao secretly regretted that he said too much yesterday.

After six days of life, Tao Mo finally got off the bed and just as he caught Lu Zhenxue's visit.

Hao Guozi and Lao Tao worked together to wrap the pottery ink tightly before he asked him to meet the guests.

When Lu Zhenxue saw him, he couldn't help but say unexpectedly: "Why did sir get lost?"

Tao Mo waved his hand, "I'm just not adapting to the local conditions."

"I know several local doctors with high medical skills need recommendations?"

"Thank you, no need."

"Sir is a parent of Tanyang County. Every move is related to Tanyang County's livelihood. Please take care of it." He spoke sincerely, as if he didn't remember the last time he left.

Tao Mo nodded lazily.

"Actually, the students are here to invite adults to attend tomorrow night's plum blossom feast." Lu Zhenxue took out the post from his cuff and handed it respectfully.

Tao Mo said in confusion: "Plum Blossom Banquet?"

Lu Zhenxuedao: "Tanyang has three treasures, one of which is that the plum blossoms bloom well. You must appreciate them when you first come to Tanyang."

Tao Mo didn't want to go.

Lu Zhenxue saw his thoughts and hurriedly said, "Didn't you want to meet Mr. Yidhim's disciple last time?"

Tao Mo's heart moved, and he wanted to believe it but couldn't believe it, "They're going too?"

Lu Zhenxue smiled but refused to answer.

Tao Mo remembered Lao Tao's previous words, shook his head and said, "Then I won't go."

Lu Zhenxue said in surprise: "Why?"

Tao Mo said: "I'm not ready yet, so it's better not to see him for the time being."

Lu Zhenxue obviously misunderstood his preparation and thought in surprise: Could it be that I underestimated him? Did he see Mr. Yidhim's disciples in order to establish his authority, rather than flattering and winning over the relationship as he originally thought? But why did he want to target Mr. Yidhim and let the teacher go? Lin Zhengyong's reputation and influence in Tanyang are not inferior to Mr. Yidhim? Could it be that he wants to defeat each one?

As he thought about it, he felt that Tao Mo was lazily hiding behind him, and even the action of serving tea was somewhat unpredictable and profound.

"But the students have spread the news that the adults will come." Lu Zhenxue was a difficult task, "I thought the adults would definitely give me these few slim faces, but I didn't expect that I was just being self-indulgent."

He said this, Tao Mo was not too unkind, "Then I'll go and sit for a while." Even if I can't get close to him, it would be nice to see that person.
