Gu She only glanced lightly, then moved back to the chessboard. But Yi Yu felt an indescribable discomfort, as if the other party saw herself thoroughly from the inside out with just one glance.
Before Gu Xiaojia could speak, Hao Guozi said, "Master, Mr. Yiyu came to visit Mr. Gu, let's avoid it first?"
Gu Xiaojia frowned, and said, "My young master doesn't recognize him."
"I don't know him, what did you bring him in for?" Hao Guozi sneered.
Gu Xiaojia was speechless. He really did not handle this matter honestly, Tao Mo was the one Yiyu was looking for, and he shouldn't have invited him in. But at that time, he was irritated by Hao Guozi's series of inexplicable actions, and he just wanted to tear off the pride on his face, but he never thought about whether it was appropriate. Now it seems that it has turned into a situation of riding a tiger.
He looked at Gu She for help.
I don't want Yiyu to say: "I heard Wu Wen said that Mr. Gu's Gu She, Mr. Gu, is stunning and unparalleled in the world. He is a rare and strange person. I can't help admiring him. That's why I came here at night. Please forgive me, Mr. Gu. I can't help myself, come here uninvited."
Hao Guozi pretended to tremble all over, and rubbed his arm vigorously.
At this time, Gu Xiaojia also felt that this Yi Yu was a little hypocritical, and she was even annoyed at her momentary recklessness.
Seeing that Gu She was silent, Tao Mo hurriedly said, "He is indeed an old friend of mine. He moved to Tanyang this time, but he hasn't found a place to stay yet, so he temporarily lives in the county government."
Gu Xiaojia frowned and said, "Aren't all the houses in your county government uninhabitable?"
Peng Xiang said: "It's not that people can't live in it. There's such a big hole in the roof that you can look up at the moon!"
Hao Guozi laughed out loud.
Tao Mo was stunned, and said, "Didn't Mu Chun say that he found a good house?"
Hao Guozi kept his voice in his mouth, and said vaguely: "The young master and I have moved out, where is there a good house in the county government?"
Tao Mo's complexion instantly turned red, even his ears were no exception. Thinking of his grandpa sleeping soundly in Gu's mansion, while Yi Yu, who was a guest, lived in a shabby room that leaked from wind and rain, he wished he could bury himself in the ground.
Yi Yu smiled and said, "Actually, it's not as serious as what Peng Xiang said."
Peng Xiang complained: "It's not serious? It rained yesterday, the house was wet, even the bed was wet." He has been following the rain since he sold into Qunxianglou, and has never suffered any more. The cold rain and wind that night made him barely close his eyes, and he drank ginger soup with Yiyu to keep warm until dawn.
Tao Mo couldn't help standing up, eyes full of guilt, "I really don't know, how about I find an inn for you?"
Yi Yu smiled and said: "Actually, it's only a little bit broken, but it's still livable. Peng Xiang and I are drifting outside, so how can we be so particular? I'm grateful to have a watt to cover my head."
Hearing his humble words, Tao Mo felt an overwhelming sense of guilt.
Snapped.
Gu She threw the chess pieces back into the chess jar.
Only then did Tao Mo remember that he was still playing chess, and hurriedly said, "Sorry, I was distracted."
"Since there are visitors, this game will come to an end." Gu She said, "You go back first."
Tao Mo was stunned.
The rest of the people were stunned.
Gu Xiaojia knew he was in trouble, so he called out in a low voice, "Master."
Gu She said lightly: "Send Master Tao back to his room."
Gu Xiaojia silently stared at Tao Mo, her feet motionless.
"I..." Tao Mo looked at Gu She and then at Yi Yu.
Yi Yu smiled slightly and said, "We'll talk about it another day."
Hao Guozi thought to himself: This is Gu's mansion. Gu She will never suffer from Shang Yiyu even if he doesn't get any benefits. With him in charge, he is better than the young master no matter what. Thinking so, he immediately pulled Tao Mo out with his right hand, half pushing and half pulling.
Gu She glanced at Gu Xiaojia.
Gu Xiaojia looked down at his toes, but didn't move.
Gu She turned to Yi Yu and asked, "Where did you come from?"
Yi Yu smiled lightly and said, "The county government is here."
"Why are you here?"
"Visiting friends."
Gu She said: "Who is your friend?"
Peng Xiang was confused. Haven't these questions been asked clearly and clearly just now? Why does this Gu She ask again from the beginning as if he didn't hear anything
Yi Yu said neither humble nor overbearing: "Tao Mo."
Gu She said: "This is not the Tao Mansion."
Yi Yu said: "I have admired Mr. Gu's reputation for a long time, and I want to take this opportunity to see his style."
Gu She lowered his eyes and said, "Where did you live before you came to Tanyang?"
Yi Yu's eyes darkened slightly, and after a while, she calmly said, "Qunxianglou."
Gu Xiaojia muttered, "It's the Xiaowan's House."
Yi Yu raised her chin slightly, looked at Gu She fixedly and said, "Young Master Gu looks down on people who come from a humble background and can't help but fall into the world?"
Gu She said: "It doesn't matter."
There is a faint light flickering in the rainy eyes.
Gu She stood up and walked out without looking at him, "It's just that there is no business for you here."
Yayi Pavilion.
The bright moon is bright, hanging alone in the night sky.
Tao Mo paced back and forth uneasily, and his long shadow dangled under the bamboo shadow from time to time.
Not long after, Hao Guozi's hurried figure turned out from the arch.
"How?" Tao Mo hurried forward and asked.
"Going back." Hao Guozi couldn't hide her joy.
Tao Mo in the room was taken aback and said, "So fast?"
Hao Guozi thought to himself: The faster Yiyu leaves, the more it means that Gu She didn't give him a good face, it's really gratifying. But he said: "Perhaps Mr. Gu is tired? That Qi Yu is not related to him, so there is nothing to say."
Tao Mo sighed, "It's all my fault."
Hao Guozi couldn't think about it for a while, "What does this have to do with your son?"
"If it wasn't for me, Yiyu wouldn't have come to Gu's residence."
Hao Guozi said happily, "Young master finally understand how annoying this rain is?"
Tao Mo also felt that Yi Yu was too reckless today, but when he thought about him living in a house without roofs, he felt guilty for a while.
Hao Guozi: "No matter what, it's good to send them away anyway."
Tao Mo said: "Go to Master Mu tomorrow and ask him to find a quiet inn for Yi Yu. No, we'd better go tonight."
Hao Guozi hurriedly stopped him and said, "He must have rested when he goes back tonight, it would be troublesome to move around."
"Then tomorrow?"
Hao Guozi originally wanted to refute, but after thinking about it, Yiyu went to the inn, and naturally she would spend less time wandering around the yamen in the future, and less chance to meet the young master. Naturally. The county government is determined not to let them live in that dilapidated house."
Tao Mo looked at him suspiciously.
Hao Guozi said: "I am sincere this time." I sincerely want to ask the master and servant to get away!
the next day.
Tao Mo felt a little headache when he woke up. He didn't sleep well last night, the figures of Yi Yu and Gu She kept floating in his mind.
For a while, he wondered if he had treated Yiyu badly, and for a while he had not fulfilled the friendship of the landlord, and for a while, he wondered whether Gu She knew the origin of Yiyu, and wondered how he would treat himself. Tossing and turning like this, sleeping and waking up, waking up and thinking about it, thinking about sleeping and sleeping, I didn't feel safe all night.
Hao Guozi slept soundly, and when he thought of sending the pair of masters and servants out of the county government office today, he felt that walking was a breeze.
When Tao Mo came out, his eyes were slightly swollen, as if he had cried.
Hao Guozi was startled, and said in a low voice, "Master, you, do you miss Master?"
Tao Mo was stunned for a moment, feeling guilty suddenly in his heart. In the past few days, he has been tossing and turning for the rain and sleepless for Gu She, but he has forgotten that his loving father's dying hope is that he can stand out and be a good official who pleads for the people. in love. "Shall we go to the county government office?" Standing by the bamboo forest, he took a deep breath, trying to dispel the depression in his heart.
Hao Guozi was a little puzzled. Why did the young master look like a different person after taking a deep breath
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Gu Xiaojia walking in listlessly, "Are you free today?"
Although Hao Guozi knew that Yiyu left very early yesterday, he didn't know why he left so early. When he saw Gu Xiaojia coming in, his eyes lit up, and he answered his question honestly, "I'm going to the Yamen."
"Young master would like to invite the two of you to go outing together. I wonder if you are free?" Gu Xiaojia asked expressionlessly. After sleeping in the kitchen all night last night, he learned from the painful experience and decided to obey his master's order to do things in a peaceful manner from now on, and he will never make his own decisions or be smart. Anyway, he would never go to the kitchen where it was cold, hard and smelly to make the floor! Sleeping in this kind of place once is enough to remember for a lifetime!
Tao Mo's heart moved, and then he remembered his father's earnest teachings, lowered his head and said, "I, I'd better go to the county government."
Hao Guozi looked at him in surprise.
The corner of Gu Xiaojia's mouth twitched, and finally said: "Oh, then I'll go back to you, Young Master."
"Wait." Hao Guozi suddenly remembered that he was going to drive that Yiyu out of the county office today. If Tao Mo was present, he might be changed by Yiyu's few words, so he might as well let him go outing with Gu She, so as not to worry about the future. "Master, Mr. Gu has taken us in for so many days, and it's rare for him to invite you. If you refuse, it would be too unreasonable." He spoke righteously.
Tao Mo was slightly surprised.
Hao Guozi continued: "The county government has Mr. Jin and Mr. Mu here, so nothing can go wrong. If anything happens, I will report it as soon as possible."
"But..." Tao Mo hesitated.
Gu Xiaojia thought that since Gu She offered the invitation, he definitely wanted him to go, so he chimed in and said, "It's not far away, so we can't miss it once we come back."
Tao Mo's refusal was originally not firm, so he couldn't stand the instigation of the two of them, so he only agreed after struggling a bit.
