MTL - She Doesn’t Want the Face-Blind Husband-v2 Chapter 127
There is no moon in the night.
Facing the dark night in the middle of the night, counting the stars aimlessly, Tao Xinhe recalled herself in the eyes of the men around her.
Cheng Shicheng saw her from the perspective of a woman, her father Tao Cheng praised her as a good daughter, and her younger brother Tao Muxian thought she was the best sister in the world.
Only Gu Ningxi, the Gu Ningxi whom she has unknowingly thought about more and more recently, regards her as an independent person with her own interests.
Thoughts naturally revolved around this man, Tao Xinhe thought of what he thought he had solved the problem between the two of them, she held her snowy cheeks and smiled wistfully, how could it be so easy? The threshold in her heart has not passed.
Even if a broken mirror is bonded, the cracks will always be there. No matter how full the moon is, there is no trace, and the brilliance remains undiminished.
If they can be bridged, will the future be like a mirror or a moon? Or neither?
Tao Xinhe found that she was really thinking about getting back together with Gu Ningxi, she couldn't help shaking her head and reminding herself that it was you who made him difficult first.
Maybe he gave up when he couldn't draw it. I heard that the emperor is still interested in being a matchmaker. He is about to become very popular. Even if he doesn't have himself, he doesn't like Mo Qiqi, and there are many ladies and ladies waiting for him, why bother to stay with him? Suffering endless cold faces?
With doubts about herself and confusion about the future, Tao Xinhe fell asleep, woke up, and entered April.
She heard that Gu Ningxi was burying her grandmother and would stay behind closed doors for forty-nine days, which had no effect on her life.
I just waited silently for a few days, and found out that Hong’s nonsense was not mentioned in vain. It seemed that the Qibailiang incident had turned over. Tao Xinhe didn’t say anything. Visited and comforted.
Because of this, Tao Xinhe once thought that Gu Ningxi was in the filial piety, and he heard that he often received documents from the palace to read, so he probably didn't have much time to paint, so he might as well just let go of the phoenix picture.
Cheng Shicheng found out that he was obviously hot with a shaved head. He confessed to Tao Xinhe once, sarcastically saying that she was full of weeds and promised nothing. , but felt that Tao Xinhe was getting further and further away from him.
Tao Xinhe tried her best to reject him.
When she tried to take a step towards another man, but found that because of this, she had frequent nightmares at night, and she couldn't stand Cheng Shicheng approaching or even touching him, Tao Xinhe accepted the fact that she couldn't do it.
No matter what happens to her and Gu Ningxi in the future, she cannot replace them with other men.
All this, she sincerely and solemnly told Cheng Shicheng on a sunny spring afternoon.
From then on, Cheng Shicheng hated spring, especially the bright weather.
Because it would always remind him of the humble memory of begging Tao Xinhe to try again that day. At that time, seeing the woman shaking her head full of apology, his blood rushed to his brain, Cheng Shicheng grabbed Tao Xinhe's tender shoulders, bent his face closer, and was about to kiss her forcefully.
Tao Xinhe's gorgeous two lips are within reach in a moment, Cheng Shicheng is so close, the two breaths intersect, his eyes can no longer see the other's entire face, only the lips are as delicate as red peach petals, and his heart is beating violently. It's like the first time he was emotional when he was a little boy, he just wanted to stick it regardless and feel the fragrance and softness.
Tao Xinhe was terrified, her shoulders shook violently, but she couldn't break free from the grip of the strong Kong Wu man, she tried her best to tilt her head, but still couldn't avoid the hot snort's pursuit, there was never a moment like now, which made her feel that she was just a weak A little girl who is bullied by others.
"Uncle, are you comparing yourself to Gu Ningran? Do you want to force me?" Tao Xinhe closed her eyes and waited for the upcoming insult, but she still couldn't forget to shout angrily, her lips accidentally brushed against the side of the man's face, letting her I just want to rinse my mouth now.
It was this sentence that hurt Cheng Shicheng.
Gu Ningran was his self-confessed enemy in his previous life, a sinister villain who killed him with unscrupulous means. In this life, he was the one who gave a powerful assist to help Gu Ningxi win the battle against Guansi quickly and condemn Gu Ningxi.
Of course Cheng Shicheng knew that Gu Ningran underestimated Mo Qiqi in this life, but he never thought that the flesh/flesh love between the two could be compared with his infatuation with A Tao.
However, it seems that Atao doesn't think so.
Letting go in a daze, Cheng Shicheng saw Tao Xinhe immediately opened his eyes, clasped his hands in front of his chest, staggered back a few steps, kept looking at him in horror, then paused for a moment, lifted the hem of his skirt and ran to the door, pushing the door several times in a panic Only once did he push it away, and fled without looking back.
Yi Ren's look of hatred and fear at the monster made Cheng Shicheng cover his face and smile wryly. It was just a kiss that failed, if he really took Tao Xinhe by force and stared at her ten times more hateful eyes every day, no matter how strong the fire was, it would be extinguished.
Cheng Shicheng's intention to give up and give up grew little by little from then on, and the follow-up entanglement was painless, but he was unwilling and always wanted to wait for a one in ten thousand miracle.
After the Dragon Boat Festival, Gu Ningxi's gift to Tao Xinhe and Tao Xinhe's response made him completely give up, and began to look for the next destined person, the next "Tao Xinhe" all over the world.
Leaving aside the rest of the story, let's just talk about the days in April, except for Cheng Shicheng's shameful accident, Tao Xinhe's life was uneventful.
On April 18th, the full moon day of Madam Gu's death, an uninvited guest came to look for Tao Xinhe, which surprised her.
In the flower hall of Tao Mansion, Tao Xinhe saw Mo Qiqi, who was dressed in light colors and was simple and pure.
"Why did Miss Mo come to see me?" Tao Xinhe sat opposite her and asked calmly.
Mo Qiqi looked seriously at her former benefactor and Tao Shi, who was influenced by her in this life, and carefully looked at her eyebrows to keep in mind, before answering after a long while: "Sister-in-law, I'm leaving, I'm going back to my hometown, Quezhou , I came to say goodbye to you today."
"Don't you have no relatives in Quezhou?" Tao Xinhe genuinely worried about her, regardless of correcting her address.
"Well, my brother is my only family member, but unfortunately he died of illness in the capital. I also thought that I would brazenly depend on brother Xiyi for the rest of my life, oh, mainly relying on you, sister-in-law. However, things have changed. "Mo Qiqi pinched her fingers habitually and said.
Seriously speaking, the girl in front of her is just looking for someone to rely on, and it's all Gu Ningxi's fault for giving her the wrong ambiguity first.
She didn't do anything out of the ordinary in the follow-up, she didn't seduce Gu Ningxi to cook cooked rice like in the story book, nor did she act like some female family members viciously guessed in her ear, "preemptively showing off concubine's money to scare people".
Tao Xinhe was inexplicably soft-hearted, and asked with concern for the first time: "Haven't you already been recognized as the family name of Gu's family? Naturally, you can rely on Gu Ningxi. By the way, after Mrs. Gu passed away, how did you spend this month? Where did you find anything?" Changes, let you make such an important decision to return to your hometown?"
Mo Qiqi couldn't hide his temperament, so he came to the door to say goodbye, and unexpectedly got Tao Xinhe's soft face, so excited, he grabbed Tao Xinhe's hand on the skirt, and started talking like a faucet, which made Tao Xinhe suddenly I know most of the recent situation of the Gu family.
Before Mrs. Gu's funeral, Mo Qiqi and the second and third bedrooms of the Gu family lived in Xin Gu's mansion. A lot of people talked about it every day, seeing off spirits and welcoming guests, and they were so busy that they couldn't take their time.
Although Mo Qiqi couldn't understand the insinuation, but judging by people's expressions, she could go back to the fight. According to herself, she didn't suffer anything. She just watched Yixiong from a distance deal with all these ups and downs, and forced her grandmother's funeral to go to the public. He was decent, worked very hard, and was very strict with himself. He couldn't eat well, couldn't sleep well, and his complexion didn't get better at all.
At the beginning of April, Mrs. Gu went to the ground to rest in peace, and they finally dispersed. Mo Qiqi found his own way and followed Aunt Gu back to the second room of the Gu residence. Gu Ningxi was grateful to Aunt Gu and sent a lot of gold and silver to thank them for helping her family to take care of her adopted daughter and younger sister.
Speaking of this, Mo Qiqi specifically explained to Tao Xinhe that she and Gu Ningxi have always been careful to avoid taboos, strictly guarding the relationship between siblings, and never even being alone, Mrs. Xi...ah no, don't worry, sister-in-law.
From that day on, Gu Ningxi closed the gates of the mansion and established himself as a unified family. No one in the second room of the Gu family, including Mo Qiqi, saw him again, but occasionally sent letters to each other, knowing that Gu Ningxi was recuperating and preparing for his promotion to a new official position in forty-nine days. , did not blindly treat himself harshly, but the specific situation is unknown.
As for Mo Qiqi, she knew that her reputation as a daughter was bad because she reported on Gu Ningran. However, after being forced to live under the same roof with the hated and vicious members of the Gu family, she had a more real feeling. Then there was the bad-mouthed lady whom she occasionally bumped into when she lived in the second room. They whispered.
Second Aunt Gu naturally punished her servants, but Mo Qiqi really understood that her situation was completely different before and after she left the court, and she couldn't go back.
Coincidentally, in the hometown of Quezhou, a young man from the Zhang family once proposed marriage to her elder brother Mo Qi, but after being rejected by Mo Qi, he had no choice but to find another wife and room.
At the beginning of this year, the wife of the man Mo Qiqi called "Brother Zhang" died of illness. He found out that Mo Qiqi was in the capital, so he asked his fellow villagers to send a message, asking Mo Qiqi to return to his hometown and be his successor.
At this time, Mo Qiqi was more shy than a real girl. Anyway, she had told Tao Xinhe the deepest secret in her heart, and there was nothing to hide. She looked down at the comparison between her ten fingers with protruding knuckles and Tao Xinhe's slender and delicate fingers, and she was grateful Tao Xinhe let her hold it, and whispered softly:
"Mrs. Xi, sister-in-law, to tell you the truth, I really wanted to marry him in my previous life. Brother Zhang treated me very well. It was my brother who said that the marriage between brother and sister was in the capital, and we were separated abruptly. The result? In the two lives, my brother left me alone and left. I was bullied as a concubine in the previous life, so I died like that, and my reputation has been ruined in this life, but I am not reconciled. Because I feel..."
In turn, Tao Xinhe stroked the girl's hard-working, not smooth hand, feeling pity welling up in her heart, she nodded and encouraged her, "You are right to be unwilling, you deserve a good life."
Mo Qiqi nodded desperately, big tears came out of his eyes, and "slapped" onto the clasped hands of the two girls, scalding them.
"Sister-in-law, you are really a good person! I'm so sorry for you, I woke up too late, otherwise why would I let you and brother Xiyi reconcile. I figured it out later, I was still afraid of my future, and I still wanted to rely on you Two, it's either Brother Xiyi or you. But Brother Zhang sent a message, and I thought again, try to realize my thoughts in the previous life, and take this step."
Embarrassedly raising his hand to wipe away his tears, Mo Qiqi saw Tao Xinhe took out the handkerchief from his bosom to hand it to her, and couldn't help laughing "puchi": "Sister-in-law, I'm a rough person, and I don't even have the habit of using handkerchiefs. I laughed. You and Brother Xiyi are the same kind of people, and I feel ashamed to be around you. I just learned this word, right?"
Tao Xinhe wiped away the tears from Mo Qiqi's face with a handkerchief, smiled, and said crisply: "As long as you are willing to learn, there is nothing to laugh at. Who is born knowing it? I am just luckier than you , was born in a family of officials. If it wasn’t for him wanting to take a concubine and I knew about you, judging by how you treat me, maybe we can still get along well.”
Mo Qiqi grinned: "If you don't fight, you don't know each other. Sister-in-law, is it like this between us? Let me tell you, brother Xiyi can see my face clearly. It's because of something called the system. On the day my righteous grandmother was buried, this thing was whispering in my ears, it lost, what kind of male protagonist still obeys his own will, God's will can't change him. I guess, it is talking about brother Xi."
This passage was unimaginable to Tao Xinhe, she asked inexplicably, "What do you mean?"
"That is to say, brother Xiyi's face blindness didn't work for me. It was actually an accident. In this world, there will never be such a person again. I heard that you are worried about this. I can assure you that there is really no more, sister-in-law .”
