The others sat down as promised, their excitement still hard to hide.
Tao Mo explained: "I happened to meet them waiting outside the gate of Gu's mansion until noon and hadn't eaten yet, so I invited them to taste the craftsmanship of Xianweilou."
Zhang Wenguang had already recovered his composure at this moment, he saw that Gu She and Tao Mo had an unusual relationship, otherwise he would not have looked for him eagerly, so he followed his topic and said, "Your Excellency is very hospitable, just like Meng Chang. "
Tao Mo didn't know who Meng Chang was, but he knew that he was praising himself, so he hurriedly humbled himself a few words.
Gu She asked, "Did you eat well?"
The others thought he was asking themselves, and nodded in approval.
Gu She said: "I haven't eaten yet."
The smiles of the others froze on their faces. They didn't know why he said that, so they could only look at Tao Mo.
Even though Tao Mo couldn't hear the meaning of Gu She's words, he could still see his face at the moment, and said with an apologetic smile, "I'll ask the shopkeeper to order some signature dishes in the kitchen." He was about to get up when Gu Xiaojia already knew it with interest. ran downstairs.
Seeing that Tao Mo's expression was a little nervous, Gu She sighed secretly, and silently raised the corners of his mouth. His face was clear and meaningful, his smile was like a handsome peak on a cold mountain, and his smile was like the first melting of spring snow. Everyone who watched him admired him.
Tao Mo personally took out a clean teacup from the cabinet next to it, brewed it himself, and then poured it for Gu She.
Someone laughed and said, "I didn't expect my lord to have such a close relationship with Mr. Gu."
Gu She lazily said, "Why didn't you think of it?"
The man was stunned for a while, his smile was slightly weak, and he said softly: "Just now I heard my lord said that he was born as a donated official and was not proficient in writing and ink, so I thought the two of you were not familiar with each other."
Gu Shedao: "He has made great progress in the way of scriptures and scriptures. Given time, he may not be able to win the gold list."
When the others heard him flattering Tao Mo, they thought it was a common compliment among friends, but they didn't take it seriously, Qi Qi said yes with a smile. On the contrary, Tao Mo was very ashamed, and said: "I don't dare to think about the title of the gold list, as long as I can read, read, write, and compose poems."
Everyone laughed and said: "Only these four things are really great."
Sun Fu suddenly said, "Which one is my lord's teacher?"
The laughter gradually died down, and everyone's eyes fell on Gu She.
Gu She nodded slightly.
Everyone looked at Tao Mo with envy and jealousy. Regardless of Gu Shewen's talent and knowledge, his status as the son of the Xiangfu alone is enough to make Tao Mo's official career much smoother.
Gu She knew what they were thinking by observing their words, but he didn't bother to explain. It would be better for them to think that he and Tao Mo are friends and mentors, so as not to have doubts about Tao Mo living in his residence.
The food ordered by Gu Xiaojia finally arrived.
Seeing Gu She move their chopsticks, everyone didn't dare to say anything, they all sat upright without looking sideways.
Tao Mo was used to having meals with Gu She, but seeing them so cautious, he couldn't help becoming more cautious, clasped his hands on his lap, and stared at the teacup in front of him.
Under the watchful eyes of many people, Gu She still took it calmly and ate his meal in an orderly manner, without rushing.
Others watched him eat, not only did not find it difficult, but they felt that watching him eat was also a piece of enjoyment.
Until Gu She stopped chopsticks, Sun Fu, Zhang Wenguang and the others exchanged glances, and when they were about to speak, Gu She stood up and said to Tao Mo, "Go home."
"Oh. Alright." Tao Mo stood up, bowed his hands at the literati who had come all the way, and walked out together with Gu She.
"Master Gu!" Sun Fu was sitting next to him, seeing that he was about to leave, he subconsciously turned sideways to block his way.
"Presumptuous! What do you want to do?" Gu Xiaojia rushed up immediately.
Only then did Sun Fu realize what he had done, and hurriedly stepped back and bowed: "Xiaosheng Menglang, please Mr. Gu Haihan!"
Gu She bypassed him expressionlessly, and walked towards the door.
"Mr. Gu, we are here to solve the confusion!" Zhang Wenguang recalled the rumors he had heard before, and had an idea, and hurriedly said.
Gu She's footsteps stopped as expected.
Zhang Wenguang was overjoyed and said, "I have admired Mr. Gu for a long time, and I have a few questions I want to ask."
Gu She said: "Have you posted?"
Zhang Wenguang thumped, secretly screaming that it was going to be bad, but he could only answer honestly: "I voted, but..."
"Farewell." Gu She said coldly, then turned and went out.
Tao Mo cupped his hands and wanted to leave, but he saw Sun Fu and the others looking at him eagerly, their eyes full of pleading. It's impossible for them to catch up with them with shamelessness, but they came all the way, but they returned empty-handed, and they were unwilling to do so, so they could only count on the good words of Mr. Gu's friend and student in front of them to see if they could do it. Turn things around.
downstairs.
Gu Xiaojia jumped into the carriage, looked impatiently in the direction of the stairs on the first floor, and asked Gu She, "My lord, why is Young Madam still not coming out?"
Gu She stood in front of the carriage, not in a hurry to get into the carriage, upon hearing this, he gave him a cold look.
Gu Xiaojia knew he had made a slip of the tongue, and hurriedly laughed and said, "I'm talking about Mr. Tao. Do you think those people will pester him and let him lobby you? I think Mr. Tao's ears are so soft, maybe he will really be persuaded Success. Originally, I would treat those irrelevant people to dinner properly. My son, if Mr. Tao really comes to lobby you, will you... be lenient?"
Gu She glanced at him indifferently, "What do you think?"
Gu Xiaojia said: "If we say that we are lenient, it will not only break the rules of the Gu family, but also ruin the reputation of the young master who keeps his promises. If everyone follows the same pattern in the future, it will make Mr. Tao fall into a dilemma. But If you don’t make an exception, it will embarrass Mr. Tao again. This is really a dilemma for both the left and the right.” He just sighed, when he saw Tao Mo coming down the stairs, and the group of literati and scholars followed behind him . Gu Xiaojia lamented, "Here we come."
Tao Mo went to the counter first, and came over after asking that Gu Xiaojia had settled the bill. "Let's go." He turned his head and waved at Zhang Wenguang and the others, then waited for Gu She to get into the car.
Gu Xiaojia asked suspiciously, "Didn't they say anything?"
Tao Mo said with a smile: "They said that Xianzhi's literary talent and character are very rare. Although there is no chance to make friends through literature, it is a great honor to be able to eat at the same table."
Gu Xiaojia said: "That's all?"
Tao Mo saw that Gu She had already boarded the car, so he nodded at him indiscriminately, got into the car, and sat beside Gu She. The two of them had already experienced the most intimate thing, sitting side by side like this would no longer make Tao Mo feel shy or uncomfortable.
"Why don't you intercede for them?" Gu She said slowly.
Tao Mo said: "Without rules, there is no such thing as a circle. I am the host just thinking of their intentions, but I never thought of breaking the rules of the Gu family."
The corners of Gu She's mouth curled up in satisfaction.
Tao Mo looked at the corners of his beautiful lips, and his heart couldn't help but move. Although they are newlyweds, Gu She has always kept things in the right place when it comes to the house, and his daily behavior is even more erotic and polite, even if there is intimacy, it is always on point. Tao Mo occasionally has a heart to be close, but he doesn't dare to be too abrupt.
As if noticing his long gaze, Gu She turned her head, looked at him and said, "What's wrong?"
Looking at his lips, Tao Mo felt a subtle change in his body, and hastily turned his head and said, "No, it's nothing." He secretly reminded himself that Gu She is the son of the Xiangfu, and he pays the most attention to etiquette, integrity and shame, and he must never have it. Make him despise any wrongdoing.
Gu She narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she was examining something, but finally turned her head away.
Tao Mo secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
The carriage returned to the back door of Gu's mansion, and Tao Mo was about to open the door when he heard Gu Xiaojia wailing, "Didn't something happen again?"
Tao Mo hurriedly opened the door, and saw an officer standing outside the door in a daze. Seeing him show up, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My lord, Yang Liu and her daughter and son-in-law are having a quarrel."
"Daughter and son-in-law?" Tao Mo opened his eyes wide in surprise.
Gu Xiaojia shook his head, resigned himself to his fate and waved at the guard, "Get in the car and lead the way."
