88. The last one arrives first (seven)

The matchmaker said for nearly half an hour without getting tired of it, but in the end, Lao Tao felt sorry for the tea in the mansion and asked her away with all his might.

However, although she left, the echoes remained for a long time, and they were heard endlessly.

Tao Mo covered his forehead and asked Lao Tao pitifully: "Do you know who Miss Xu is?" Miss Xu initially asked the matchmaker to come to propose marriage. He just took it as a coincidence and didn't take it seriously, so he let Lao Tao send it away. Unexpectedly, Miss Xu seemed to have really recognized him, retreated one after another, and again, again and again, with great courage as he became more and more courageous, which really made him confused.

"Ms. Xu is the eldest lady of Fanxing Silk Village." Master Jin suddenly appeared with a smile on his face, "I heard that although he was born in a businessman, he was well-educated and beautiful, and was a rare beauty."

Tao Mo Dai said, "Then why did she fall in love with me?"

Master Jin laughed and said, "Why is the boss ruthless? You are also the seventh-rank county magistrate of the court. You are in charge of the county's politics. You have no wife and no name outside. You are a rare son-in-law."

Tao Mo started to sweat again.

"A beautiful woman is a good son-in-law. In my opinion, this marriage is simply a perfect match for men and women. It is a perfect match for heaven. It is also a good story to go out in the future. Why should the boss keep people from thousands of miles away and be indifferent to the charm?"

If Master Jin hadn't been a man, Tao Mo would have almost suspected that he was the fourth matchmaker. He looked at Lao Tao like help.

Lao Tao said slowly: "Young Master, you know what the master is thinking."

Tao Mo's heart sank.

Lao Tao said again: "You know my thoughts too."

Tao Mo shrinks his shoulders.

"But it's about your lifelong happiness, you'd better make your own decisions." Old Tao sighed and walked out.

Master Jin was stunned. He thought that Lao Tao could not wait to match up with the other party with such good conditions, but he didn't expect that he would let him decide.

Before Lao Tao left, he suddenly turned to Master Jin and said, "Master Jin is familiar with the Xu family?"

"Of course," Master Jin blurted out and suddenly came back to his senses, laughing dryly, "Am I a fellow countryman."

Old Tao smiled, stepped out of the door with his hands behind his back, and turned toward his room.

It was still dawn, but the doors and windows of his room were tightly closed.

He pushed the door and entered the room. A young man in a cloak was already standing behind the door waiting. Seeing him come in, he hurriedly saluted, "Elder Lu."

Lao Tao nodded and said, "You can do this well."

The young man smiled implicitly and said, "I am just following the order."

Lao Tao said: "I didn't expect you to ask Master Jin to talk about it."

The young man said, "Mr. Jin was not invited by me, but by Mr. Xu. He said that since it was a show, it should be done realistically."

Lao Tao then smiled, "It seems that your future father-in-law is really enlightened."

"If it weren't for my teaching helping each other in the face of danger, Mr. Xu wouldn't have been the same today as Mr. Xu. He remembered it in his heart and did not dare to forget it."

Lao Tao said: "When this matter comes, I will ask the young master to prove the marriage for the two."

The young man looked embarrassed.

Old Tao smiled and said, "Of course I still have me."

The young man said gratefully: "Thank you, Elder Lu." For them, a county magistrate is nothing, but an elder of the Demon Cult personally proves the marriage is decent.

Lao Tao said: "But before this, I will have to feel wronged Miss Xu for a few days."

The young man hesitated and said, "I don't know if I should say it or not."

"speak."

"Who did Lord Tao like, why did he use this method to test it? In fact, it is normal for men to get married, and adults can send a matchmaker to propose marriage." What he was puzzled in his heart was why a dignified man like Tao Mo dared not come to propose marriage, but instead asked a woman like his fiancée to sacrifice her reputation to fulfill his wishes.

Lao Tao patted his shoulder.

The young man hurriedly lowered his head and said, "I'm talking too much."

Lao Tao reminded obscurely: "If you have nothing to do, please contact more assistance." Especially the two figures of Niu Er, the demon-stalking coach.

"...Yes." Obviously, Lao Tao's reminder was too obscure and tortuous, and the young man did not feel it.

Practice calligraphy for one hour, and play chess for another hour.

Because she was still thinking about Miss Xu's affairs, Tao Mo was defeated like a mountain.

Gu She was ruthless in siege, and in just one stick of incense, the mountains and rivers were settled.

Tao Mo held the black piece and swayed on the chessboard for a while, gave up and said, "I lost."

Gu Shedao: "It is also a good thing to lose the chess game and win the beauty."

Tao Mo's hand shook, and the black chess fell on the chessboard, disrupting the layout and the spring water that was not calm in his heart. "Have you heard of it?"

Gu She leaned against the back of the chair and sipped the tea slowly.

Tao Mo whispered: "I don't know what to do."

"Don't you know how to get a hiring?" Gu Shedai.

Tao Mo waved his hand and said, "Of course not. I, how could I marry her?" He was born to break his sleeves, and marrying a woman was a disaster.

Gu Shedao: "What's the difficulty? Reject it is."

"But she is a woman, and such things will be a little bit of a bad reputation." It was difficult for a woman to come to ask for her parents, let alone being rejected one after another.

Gu She looked at him silently.

Tao Mo said: "If I were her, I would definitely be very sad."

Gu She looked at the tea leaves sinking at the bottom of the cup, shook the teacup, watched the water ripples, and put them down again, "You haven't seen her before, but you think she has deep love for you. Wouldn't you marry me?"

Tao Mo said awkwardly: "I didn't mean that."

"Have you ever heard a saying that you are dedicated to nothing, either a traitor or a thief?"

Tao Mo frowned unconsciously, "You can't say that either."

Gu She glanced coldly.

Tao Mo said with a tough forehead: "It's okay to say I'm, but she's a woman, and this sentence is too mean." His words behind him became lighter and lighter, but they still came into Gu She's ears without missing a word.

"Mean?" He pursed his lips.

Tao Mo waved his hands quickly, "I don't mean that. I just think the sentence just now is a bit, a bit, a bit, inappropriate."

Gu She looked at him steadily for a while, got up and walked out. After recuperating for so many days, his injuries healed. Although he was sometimes a little painful and itchy, he would not be a big deal if he walked slowly.

As soon as he stood up, Tao Mo stood up.

Gu Qiu kicked his feet across the threshold, and walked without looking back, "Sending off the guests."

Tao Mo chased to the threshold and stopped. Looking at his figure getting farther and farther away, he felt so upset. He didn't regret the rebuttal just now, but he just regretted that he had never read a book and his speech was not tactful enough. He knew that Gu She was doing his best, but he made him angry.

He didn't know how he went back to the yamen later, but he just lie on the bed and didn't want to move when he entered the door. In the evening, Hao Guozi came to send dinner, but he curled up and hid in the quilt and didn't come out.

Hao Guozi asked several times but failed, and then changed to Lao Tao.

Lao Tao did not enter the door, but just looked at him silently at the door. He set up this plan just to cut the mess with a quick knife. A love thing will harm people a lot and will only sink deeper and deeper. Instead of waiting for Tao Mo to face such difficulties in the future, it is better to distinguish everything clearly now. If Gu She also has the intention, then he has nothing to say and will fulfill them. Otherwise, even if he uses the golden sword and silver sword, he will cut the two of them cleanly!

The moonlight is graceful, the courtyard is full of sparse shadows, and the ground is bright and shiny.

Gu She sat alone on a soft seat with several layers of cotton, next to it a pot of sake, pouring and drinking by himself.

"Young Master Gu is so elegant." Lao Tao jumped off the eaves and "raised his glass alone to invite the bright moon."

Gu She said: "So, Mr. Tao, who stepped on the moon to find the fragrance in the middle of the night, but it seems that he was looking for the wrong place."

Lao Tao coughed dryly and said, "I'm here to find Mr. Gu."

Gu She drank the wine in the glass in one go.

"I want to ask Mr. Gu to do a favor," said Lao Tao. "Recently, a Miss Xu asked the matchmaker to match her and the young master. I have found someone to inquire. This Miss Xu is young and beautiful, well-educated, and has a silk shop at home. It is a rare good marriage. But my young master is shy and has never considered men and women, so he can't help but waver. I want to ask Mr. Gu to have a relationship with the young master and persuade him."

Gu She put down the cup, "You didn't come to ask me to talk about it."

Lao Tao was stunned.

Gu She said slowly: "If you really want Tao Mo to agree to this marriage, you won't come to me."

Lao Tao said without changing his expression: "How can I see it?"

Gu She said, "You know, I will never agree."

Lao Tao said innocently: "I don't know."

Gu She said calmly: "Then you know now."

Lao Tao said: "Can I ask the reason?"

"No." Gu Shidao.

Lao Tao looked at him, his eyes full of exploration.

Gu She looked calm and said after a while: "Because I haven't figured it out yet."
