MTL - She Doesn’t Want the Face-Blind Husband-Chapter 10
The shopkeeper scratched his head "hehe" and said: "A lord said that Mr. Gu often talks about his wife. The love between husband and wife is eye-catching, so why not just add to the chaos and let Mr. Gu scrape down the grape trellis." Then If he wanted to say something, it seemed that he was also embarrassed, so he paused for a while and observed the expression of Mrs. Gu.
Tao Xinhe coughed uncomfortably, and the toes of the delicate embroidered shoes curled up slightly and then let go. Fortunately, the skirt was stable, and she was not showing any signs of expression.
Talk about it?
What did your husband say about her?
Is this the image of your husband in the hearts of colleagues?
Why did she feel a little embarrassed?
Closing her eyes, Tao Xinhe let out a low "hmm", indicating that she heard what the shopkeeper said, and at the same time felt her heart beating up.
What is adding chaos?
Could it be that Qiniang was designed by colleagues to design her husband?
If it's so good, it's a hundred times better than the husband giving birth to his heart.
The shopkeeper spread out and explained: "They asked the little one to borrow some of the rouge that orchids often use, and the adults took advantage of Mr. Gu's pillow to sleep, and then, ah, just dabbed it on the face. It's not the little one blowing, Mr. Gu is really good-looking, that side face is amazing!"
"When Mr. Gu woke up, the little one was staring at the guys cleaning the front hall. He stared for a while, and forgot to remind him of the rouge on his face. Madam must not be offended by Mr. Gu, right?"
Tao Xinhe didn't answer, but smiled coldly and reservedly, seeing strange things and seeing strange things is a matter between husband and wife, not for outsiders.
It turned out that Yan Zhi was teased because of her frivolous colleagues. In the final analysis, her husband was blind, indifferent to others, and not popular enough, right?
Tao Xinhe imagined that if she saw her husband blushing in the face of avoiding others, she would definitely make fun of her if she was on a normal day.
However, the situation last night was special, she was disheartened, she didn't even mention the rouge, and it was a waste of Baba, the shopkeeper, to explain.
Seeing that the shopkeeper didn't continue to say anything about Qiniang's intentions, he probably didn't mention it at the banquet. So this woman has nothing to do with the colleagues in the Ministry of Rites, and her husband met him privately. Tao Xinhe swallowed her secret disappointment and thanked the shopkeeper.
Lian Dao of the shopkeeper didn't dare to take the position, and pointed to the wooden box and said courteously: "Madam, there are two things in the box. The scarf on the top was taken off by Mr. Gu as soon as he entered the wine shop and placed beside the table. The following is the scarf that was bought by him later. A beautiful brocade box was found in the room, judging by its size, it must have fallen out of the sleeve pocket when Master Gu was resting in the room."
"Master Gu left in a hurry. We only found out when we were packing up that the little one was delivered in a hurry. It was not damaged at all. Madam please check it."
Tao Xinhe was a little surprised, she closed the lid of the box just now when she saw the scarf, and didn't notice that there was something else under it.
Now she picked up the wooden box and opened it, shook out the scarf and put it aside, and sure enough, she saw a square brocade box the size of a palm.
The box looks familiar, like the style of Yanchun Pavilion, a famous jewelry shop in the capital. However, how could he get involved with her husband?
With suspicion, Tao Xinhe lightly pressed the hidden button with her light-white index finger like a tender bamboo shoot, and the box popped open.
A pair of beaded gilt hair in the shape of a magpie climbing a branch, lying on the clean and soft white silk surface facing each other from left to right. The sun is just right during the day, and the light coming in from the window shines on it, making it look radiant and golden.
"Is this Gu Sicheng's belonging? Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?" Tao Xinhe couldn't help asking.
At the same time, she took a closer look at one of the haircuts. It was brand new and delicate. She had never seen this pattern when she visited Yanchun Pavilion last month, so it must be a newly made style.
The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly.
However, how could there be a female family member's hair ornament on the husband? Tao Xinhe secretly bit her lip, her heart was overwhelmed.
At this moment, Gu Ningxi's voice came from the door: "My lady, I'm back. I heard that the shopkeeper of Xiangyang Restaurant is here?"
Let Gu Ningxi, who has always been polite and self-sufficient, arrive before he arrives, which fully reflects his eagerness.
Not wanting outsiders to see the couple's jokes, Tao Xinhe nodded at the shopkeeper and smiled, stood up to welcome her out, while Qingfang and Liuguang guarded the flower hall.
After crossing the threshold, she arrived in front of Gu Ningxi, who was walking briskly. Just as she was about to say hello, her husband who stared at her for a few times asked first, "Ma'am?"
Tao Xinhe smiled to herself, this person only behaved like this when he was newly married, and he confirmed it first every time he met. Later, I often made my own voices on my own initiative, and I was blessed with fixed clothing. It has been a long time since I heard this "lady" throwing stones and asking for directions.
It seems that Gu Ningxi was frightened by the change of clothes between herself and Qingfang last night, and she was once bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of well ropes.
Her thoughts raced, and a soft response escaped from her lips without delay.
After Gu Ningxi confirmed it, she grabbed Tao Xinhe's hands and called out "Lady" affectionately. The tone of her voice was quite different from the previous one.
He wanted to tell He Niang about Mo Qiqi immediately.
"The shopkeeper of the restaurant came to visit you. He was sitting and drinking tea in the flower hall. My husband came to say hello." Tao Xinhe responded to the preface with a soft voice.
She didn't want to be face to face with the husband who received the woman's scarf as a gift, so she tried to withdraw her hand to turn around, but found that the strength of Gu Ningxi's big palm was just right, it didn't pinch her, and it held her firmly.
"Let go." Feeling that in the hall behind him, the conversation between the shopkeeper and the maids suddenly stopped, Tao Xinhe wondered if it was the husband and wife who were seen by them, felt ashamed, and reprimanded in a very low voice, but in exchange for Gu Ningxi He shook his head and added an equally low "no".
Can't tell the difference between inside and outside the boudoir? Gu Ningxi has always only played hands and feet when the two of them are alone, but now in broad daylight, he has clearly stated that he has a guest, why is he uncharacteristically refusing to let go?
Could it be that he learned how to wander from some Qiniang? Tao Xinhe thought bitterly.
However, I was caught with both hands, and I couldn't even turn around. The husband and wife were stuck outside the door without paying attention to the guests.
With an idea, she lowered her voice and pointed out: "How do you want me to walk?"
Gu Ningxi naturally heard the softening of the lady, her heart relaxed, she smiled, and generously let go of Tao Xinhe's hand, but firmly held her right hand.
This was not enough, he intertwined his ten fingers tightly, then sighed and said: "Madam please." He signaled Tao Xinhe to enter the flower hall with him to entertain guests.
Tao Xinhe glanced sideways, and the sleeves of the two naturally drooped to somewhat cover it up, but the woman's red dress overlapped with the man's bead gray cloth, and she still wanted to cover it up, so she could only grind her teeth secretly.
And wait, wait for the shopkeeper to leave, then turn cold-faced, and settle his **** with Gu Ningxi!
While wondering if Gu Ningxi had ever held someone else's hand like this, she endured it and tried her best to move forward as usual.
Gu Ningxi followed the pace of the lady, with three points of pride and three points of caution, and walked side by side with her to the top seat. It was rare for her to take the initiative to greet the man who couldn't see his face clearly. Anyway, the lady just said that this person must be the shopkeeper of the restaurant , never go wrong.
The author has something to say:
Scrape down the grape trellis - from "Xiao Lin Guang Ji", cryptic meaning: refers to a fire in the backyard and a quarrel with his wife.
Please allow the little author to carry the joke over, hoping to make you laugh:
"Xiao Lin Guang Ji":
There was an official who was afraid of internal affairs and was smashed by his wife one day.
In the hall tomorrow, the **** asked him when he saw it, and the official said to him: "When I was enjoying the cool at night, the grape trellis fell down, so I scratched it." "
The **** didn't believe it, and said: "This must be your wife's broken one. I'll send Zaoli to bring it." "
Unexpectedly, grandma was eavesdropping in the back hall and rushed out of the hall in a rage.
The **** panicked and said to the official: "If you step back for a while, the grape rack in my yamen will also fall down." "
