No one among them had seen the nephew of Shi Taishi, and he didn't know when or how he came. There was no follow-up to the letter from the prefect of Qin Cheng, so the matter was naturally stranded and then left behind.

Tao Mo still stayed in the yamen for a few hours every day, handling official duties with Master Jin. He went to Gu's house for a few hours, practicing calligraphy and playing chess.

Hao Guozi couldn't help but ask Lao Tao, "Have you noticed that the young master has been staying in Gu's mansion for a longer time?"

Lao Tao said: "Is that true?"

Hao Guozi said: "There were several nights that didn't even come back all night."

Lao Tao said: "It happened to rain those nights, and the road was slippery, so it was normal not to go back."

Hao Guozi struggled: "But the young master has not been on the county government carriage recently."

Lao Tao said: "Sir Jin is getting older, and it is normal for the county government to prepare a car in case of accidents."

Hao Guozi frowned. Why did he think this reason sounded very far-fetched? He curled his lips and said, "But the young master hasn't asked me to come with me recently."

Lao Tao said: "There are many affairs in the county government, so it's better if you stay and help."

Hao Guozi looked at him strangely.

Lao Tao was calm and composed.

"Why do I think you are expelling the young master?" Hao Guozi asked.

Lao Tao said: "The young master and Mr. Gu are based on affection and only rituals. This is a normal relationship, so why bother to excuse me?"

Hao Guozi's face became extremely strange, "It comes from emotion, but only from etiquette?"

Lao Tao continued to do the accounting, thinking that the young master's salary was not much, and it was really hard to support such a family. Although Mr. Tao had been very prescient in transferring some of the family wealth before the fall of the Tao Mansion, no matter how much wealth was, he could not stand the slaughter. It seemed that it was time to tell the young master the existence of this money, and then discuss with him how to make the money come alive.

Seeing that Lao Tao was absent-minded, Hao Guozi couldn't help but lean over and said, "Lao Tao, aren't you the one who most opposed the young master and Gu She together?"

Lao Tao pushed his head away with expressionless expression, "When did I object?"

Hao Guozi said: "You are clearly thinking about asking for a young lady for the young master and giving birth to a group of young masters!"

Lao Tao sighed, "If you think I am willing, will the young master be willing?"

Hao Guozi felt a chill when she remembered Tao Mo's dedication to Gu She in recent days.

Lao Tao said: "Besides, how many women in the world can compare to Gu She?"

"How do you compare this?" Comparing appearance, family background, talent?... He couldn't think of anyone who could compare it. If you really want to compare, I'm afraid there are only the ladies from the royal family, but how could those people look down on Tao Mo? "No, you said Gu She is also interesting to the young master?" He looked shocked.

Lao Tao was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Hao Guozi was so anxious that she ran from Lao Tao to the other side, "But sometimes I would see the young master dazed at the wall, and then sighed... Are they worried about the future of the two?"

Lao Tao said: "If you continue to argue, then we will all worry about our future livelihood."

Hao Guozi was stunned and said, "Are we very poor?"

Lao Tao said: "I don't know if we are very poor, but I can make you very poor."

Hao Guozi felt aggrieved, "I just care about the young master."

"Then let's see if the young master's ginseng soup has been cooked." Lao Tao said, "We just take good care of the young master's health. As for the others, I believe the young master is responsible."

Hao Guozi went there embarrassedly.

When his footsteps walked away, Lao Tao raised his head and frowned.

I was dazed at the wall and sighed?

Haven't the heart knot been untied yet?

Tao Mo felt that he had been wandering on the edge of happiness and horror these days.

The more gentle Gu She was to him, the more afraid that this gentleness would not last, so he endured every care tremblingly, as if he was afraid of a beggar who would not have the next meal after eating this meal.

Lao Tao said that he had lost weight in the past few days and kept giving him various tonic soups, but he knew that the waste of sleepless night could not be saved by tonic soups. He also wanted to pull himself out of this fear, and even confessed his thoughts to Gu She. However, whenever he saw Gu She's cold eyes, his words were like a stone falling into a lake, sinking and unable to struggle.

"The force here is not right." Gu She's voice pulled him back from his contemplation, "I want to mention it briefly."

Tao Mo nodded quickly.

Gu She put down the paper and looked up at him, "Are you worried?"

Tao Mo shook his head in a hurry.

Gu She didn't ask again, "Give me the law."

Tao Mo turned around and took it. Since his handwriting was written a little decent, Gu She began to explain to him the laws and regulations of our court. He explained it very vividly, and he often took out various cases as notes, which were simple and easy to understand and enjoyable. Not only that, Gu She sometimes also talked about the sophist's skills of lawyers, pointed out the omissions, and asked him to be careful.

Tao Mo knew that he was afraid that he would be misled by this sophistry in the future, so he listened very carefully.

Gu She took the law and did not open it, but asked, "What do you think about the woodcutter case?"

Tao Mo was stunned and said, "The woodcutter is the one who takes the blame for others. Although there is no crime of murder, it hinders the fairness of the case and should also be punished together."

Gu Shedao: "How do you prove that he is the one who takes the blame?"

Tao Mo said: "This, maybe we will discuss with him after Mr. Lu recovers from illness?" After parting with Guanyin Temple, Lu Zhenxue fell ill at home and sent a letter to apologize the next day.

Gu Shedao: "I'm afraid his illness will not be cured for the time being."

Tao Mo said in surprise: "So serious?" He has been busy traveling between Gu's mansion and the county government these days, and has never taken time to visit Lu's mansion. Now that I think about it, I feel a little apologized and said, "It's better for me to visit tomorrow."

Gu She glanced at him, and the corners of her lips raised slightly, "Okay. I'll come to the county government to pick you up tomorrow."

Tao Mo's heart was sweet, and then he secretly reminded himself not to get too deep.

Gu She silently looked at the change of expression on Tao Mo's face, and a deep thought flashed in her eyes.

Gu She wanted to come and be punctual, saying that Wei Shi is Wei Shi.

Tao Mowei was waiting at the door with the gifts prepared by Hao Guozi. When he saw the carriage coming and was about to get on the carriage, Hao Guozi came out from behind and said, "Young Master, let me go with you. At least someone will carry things."

Gu Xiaojia snorted coldly: "Can I mention it?"

Hao Guozi said: "Don't I feel sorry for you and it's too hard to mention it alone?"

"Who wants you to feel sorry!" Gu Xiaojia turned his head, moved his body to the side, and gave up a position on the shaft of the car.

Hao Guozi sat on with a smile.

Gu Xiaojia was about to catch the car when the reins in his hand were picked up by Hao Guozi.

"Thank you for your hard work these days, why not take a break and let me come." Hao Guozi was extremely attentive.

Gu Xiaojia looked at him suspiciously, "What's wrong with you?"

Hao Guozi said: "I just think you work so hard every day and feel sorry for it." He must prove his usefulness in front of the young master and must not let himself be idle!

In terms of driving skills, Hao Guozi and Gu Xiaojia can be said to be inconsistent with each other, and they are both stable and stable.

When he arrived at the gate of Lu's mansion, Gu Xiaojia delivered the prepared prayer letter to the doorman, and the doorman immediately ran in to report the message.

Tao Mo and Gu She got out of the car.

Tao Mo couldn't help but remember the scene when he came to Lu's house to attend a banquet that day and met Gu She. That day was the first time he talked to Gu She.

Gu Xiaojia seemed to remember it, and said, "When I saw you that day, I was still thinking about how stupid this county magistrate was. I'm afraid I won't be a long time. I didn't expect that you would have survived the beginning of spring."

Tao Mo's face turned slightly red and he laughed dryly.

Hao Guozi stood up and said, "My young master has always made great progress."

Gu Xiaojia sneered, turned around and saw Gu She looking at him, and immediately shrank his head and dared not speak.

The concierge of Lu's mansion came out for a long time and led them into the flower hall with a smile.

The person who came out to entertain the General Manager of the Lu Mansion. He said apologetically: "My young master is ill and it is not convenient to meet guests. I also asked Lord Tao and Mr. Gu Haihan."

Gu Shedao: "I understand the skills of Qihuang. Can I take my pulse for Mr. Lu?"

The head of the Lu Mansion: "I have asked someone to come for the pulse. It's wind and cold, so I need to rest."

Tao Mo said: "I wonder when Mr. Lu will be able to recover?"

The head of the Lu Mansion said: "I don't know this. Maybe three to five days, maybe half a month, this is indefinite."

Gu Shedao: "That's right. Some people may not be able to see good things after being sick for three or seven years."

The headmaster of the Lu Mansion was uncomfortable hearing this, but he had to smile apologize.

Tao Mo gave the gift he had prepared before, comforted him a few more words, and then came out with Gu She. As soon as he left the door, Gu Xiaojia ignored the presence of the Lu Mansion Gate and shouted: "This disease is really a coincidence."
