MTL - She Doesn’t Want the Face-Blind Husband-v2 Chapter 129
How did this Mo Qiqi tell Gu Ningxi, how did the box of beads become the makeup for Tao Xinhe to marry her righteous sister?
Tao Xinhe's chest was heaving and unsteady, and her molars were itchy. She didn't know whether to blame herself who entrusted the wrong person, Mo Qiqi who was talking nonsense, or Gu Ningxi who didn't know the difference.
There were still a few pages of unread paper in her hand, Tao Xinhe suppressed her anger and continued to read, wondering what else Gu Ningxi would babble about.
Turning a page, Gu Ningxi seemed to be shaking her burden, and gave a different explanation for the beadwork:
"He Niang, I know that you definitely don't want to get involved with me, so I borrowed the hand of the Mo family's righteous sister to return the Yanchun Pavilion jewelry to me. Sure enough, after saying the makeup, the Mo family's righteous sister also smiled. Retell the original text you said to her, familiar with the words and sentences, as if I personally heard Qing's instructions, think about it."
A heart was first torn down by anger, and then looked at this paragraph, it turned out to be a joke between their righteous brothers and sisters, Tao Xinhe felt empty in his heart, dazedly exerted force on his plain finger, and crumpled the edge of the thick paper.
"Han Niang, you also know me very well. I beg you to make me sleepy and miss you. How can you be timid because you returned a box of jewelry? However, if you clearly dislike this kind of women's items, it is convenient for me." It's useless anymore. I used it to push the boat along the way, and gave it to the righteous sister of the Mo family in the name of the righteous sister-in-law's marriage, so that she is far away in Quezhou, so it can be seen that everything misses your kindness."
It turned out that Gu Ningxi gave Mo Qiqi the shiny and exquisite bead ornaments in the box after going around. But under the banner of Tao Xinhe, what did you say that the righteous sister-in-law gave her a gift, so that she would think about others when she saw things?
Tao Xinhe swallowed a few times, thinking that Gu Ningxi must be loved by others if she writes a storybook, the unexpected kung fu of turning over and over again really hurt the hearts of the spectators.
She said to herself in her heart for a while, in short, she returned it, no matter how Gu Ningxi dealt with it, she just pretended not to know. For a while, I felt that I was being teased by Gu Ningxi, why did I seem to get involved?
Tao Xinhe raised her eyes to look at Liu Guang, and asked softly, "Miss Mo is your master's adopted sister in name, she was taken care of by him, and she just left and returned to her hometown, did your master not keep her?"
The witty Liu Guang replied: "After hearing about Miss Mo's reason for returning to her hometown, Master supported her very much. He only said that she lost a real brother in the capital and gained a righteous brother. If she was wronged in her hometown, she could write to He asked for help. The master said that the eldest daughter should get married, and wished Miss Mo, a younger sister, to go to her beloved and everything goes well. The servant listened, and seemed to have no intention of being reluctant."
The housekeeper interrupted and said: "Mrs., my master originally planned to allocate six hundred taels of silver from the mansion to give Miss Mo a place to go back to her hometown. Later, he said that you had given jewelry and that the husband and wife were one. He asked the old slave to keep the money and wait for you to return Let’s make arrangements after the government is over.”
"I'm not the wife of your mansion anymore! Butler, don't yell at your master." Tao Xinhe asked casually, but didn't bother.
Shishu added a few words about the arrangements for Mo Qiqi to return to his hometown. Two or three days later, the steward took four male and female servants, two concubines from the second room of the Gu family, and others to send Mo Qiqi back to Quezhou. A male servant and a female servant of the Xingu Mansion left Mo Qiqi on the spot as companions, and the others always wanted to see that "Brother Zhang" and entrusted them to someone before returning to Beijing.
After hearing this, Tao Xinhe felt that there was nothing wrong, so she nodded casually. I feel a little regretful in my heart, this girl is very different, like a vigorous wild flower, unique and interesting, I will not meet many in the future. At the same time, there is still a trace of relaxation, she dare not look into the root cause.
What Gu Ningxi wrote next made Tao Xinhe feel that this man was really different from the person in her impression, and he had the taste of the emperor's close minister.
One is that the emperor will make some small adjustments to the structure of the Ministry of Industry in the near future. Gu Ningxi asked "Han Niang" to remind "Uncle Tao" Tao Cheng that it is not about his own business, and he must not be persuaded by his colleagues to oppose this personnel improvement. , Touched the emperor's bad luck.
The text here is well written, and Gu Ningxi dispels the suspicion of giving advice in this way:
"I admire Uncle Tao's infatuation and craftsmanship. I never hear anything outside the window. I think the changes in the Ministry of Industry have nothing to do with Uncle Tao. I don't need to speculate on Uncle Tao. But if He Niang tells it, I can have fun with Uncle Tao."
The wording of the second matter is much more restrained and cautious. Gu Ningxi wrote that he only recently heard from his cousin Gu Runing that his ex-wife sister Tao Xinqiang will be engaged to the general Chen's family.
Gu Ningxi suggested to suspend the ceremony, saying that the reason involved the arbitrariness of the Chen family's father in office, fearing that it would affect the children and grandchildren.
The incident probably hasn't happened yet, and it's always a trick to leave all the paper and pen, so Gu Ningxi didn't put too much ink on it.
To Tao Xinhe's surprise, Gu Ningxi also specially wrote a paragraph to speak well of Cheng Shicheng.
"He Niang, I know Uncle Cheng is a great matchmaker for my sister's marriage, please don't blame him. He has been out of work for many years, and he doesn't know much about his old friends who are now officials. mother.
In my humble opinion, my sister is still young, you might as well wait for three or four months to see how the generals will rectify the follow-up, and then it will not be too late to make calculations, please be careful. "
For some reason, what came to my mind was good-humored and funny. Tao Xinhe tapped the words "I have been unemployed for many years" with her index finger, as if she saw the male peacock that suppressed the opponent open his tail, showing off his might and strength.
Does Gu Ningxi imply that he is now closer to the power center and more powerful than Cheng Shicheng? Tao Xinhe didn't think she was thinking too much.
Among the three, Gu Ningxi made a short list of books and suggested that Tao Muxian read them carefully, saying that it would help him in the imperial examination later.
All in all, Gu Ningxi showed Tao Xinhe in an all-round way that she is no longer a study nerd, but gradually transformed into a powerful minister.
At the end of the letter, Gu Ningxi mentioned the small portraits and promised to finish them on the forty-ninth day, asking He Niang to give him time and save the opportunity.
The humble words used made Tao Xinhe hallucinate that Gu Ningxi was like the legendary wife-watching stone, so she couldn't hold back and grinned silently.
Please wait for the housekeeper and others to wait for a while, Tao Xinhe took the letter to find his father Tao Cheng, and relayed the following paragraphs.
Tao Cheng put down the iron-skinned wood chip he was beating in his hand, and commented with his beard: "After three days, you should look at Gu Ningxi with admiration. Gu Ningxi is really different. It turns out that he didn't pay attention to these things. Even with the convenience of the Holy Grace, it is rare that he is willing to leak the letter to me. I want to accept the affection."
Tao Xinhe lowered her eyebrows and closed her eyes, as if she hadn't heard anything, she looked at the floor tiles under her feet as if she was in a state of concentration, as if obediently obeying the orders of her elders.
Tao Cheng came back to his senses, stretched out his hand to touch the eldest daughter, and said, "He Niang, what is the reason why Gu Ningxi sells so well this time, you know me. You said, it was you who wrote back to him and thanked him on my behalf, or me How about Zhenger Bajing replying to him in an official manner?"
"If Daddy is free, the weight of your reply will naturally be more important than mine. There is also the matter of Qiangniang and Muxian." Tao Xinhe's voice was extremely rare.
"Hahaha, it seems quite interesting for you to chase and hide one by one. This is also a part of accumulating cakes between you. Come on, I will listen to you once for my father. Good daughter, help me grind ink."
Tao Xinhe felt that her face was flushed, as if she had been punctured by her father. Could it be that she was only acting like she wanted to reject Gu Ningxi?
She muttered: "I don't mean to push and pull with him, father thinks too much." Then she rolled up her cuffs, picked up the inkstone, helped Tao Cheng grind ink, and waited for him to reply eloquently.
After receiving the reply letter sealed with fire wax, the people in the Xingu Mansion repeatedly said that Jushi Tao loved them and made it easier for them to deal with them. Thank you very much.
Qingfang and Liuguang held hands, chatting quietly all the way, and sent them away from Tao Mansion.
On this side, Qingfang glanced at the sky and reported to Tao Xinhe that Literacy and Liu Guang met each other, and she begged Enyan to marry her when her father was born.
After hearing the words, Tao Xinhe recollected the flirting between the two just now, she came to her senses and thought that Qingfang's marriage should be paid close attention, and her wish of being a decent lady should be fulfilled. Feelings of reluctance filled my heart for a moment.
On the other side, Gu Ningxi was overjoyed to get He Niang's reply. Hastily opened it, only to find out that the servants made a mistake, and looked up differently. The person who signed it said "Ministry official Cheng Cheng".
It turned out to be the former father-in-law. Gu Ningxi hoped that through her own efforts, she could continue to call him "father-in-law".
It doesn't matter if I didn't get a reply from He Niang this time, the future will be long. Gu Ningxi thought to herself while tidying up the waste paper on the desk in the study.
**
Gu Ningxi wrote about Tao Xinqiang's marriage with such a big change in the future, Tao Xinhe had to take it to heart.
She specially went to her sister's courtyard, disclosing some news that Chen's father might have something bad to do. Since she, Tao Xinhe, did not understand military generals, so she made the mistake of pulling the wrong red line, she persuaded Qiangniang to be more considerate, so as not to fall into the trap. deeper.
Tao Xinqiang believed in her sister, but the first person to touch a girl's heart in her life was someone else's fiance, Cheng Jia, and the second fell in love with the young man from the Chen family, who would become a prisoner's family. She was naturally sad, hugged Tao Xinhe and cried hard With one blow, my sister's thin spring shirt was drenched from crying.
After finally calming down her younger sister, Tao Xinhe even said that the next person she would meet would be more harmonious, and at the same time, her mind raced to find a third sister-in-law with a clean fortune to compensate Qiangniang.
Originally thinking that he knew nothing about the circle of generals, Tao Xinhe thought that Cheng Shicheng was the Earl, and he should know it well. Entrust it to Cheng Shicheng.
Who knew there was such a reversal, entrusting Cheng Shicheng would definitely not work.
While patting the girl's back gently, Tao Xinhe realized that the three words "Gu Ningxi" came to mind unconsciously, causing her to stop her regular movements suddenly.
Did he already regard Gu Ningxi as someone he could rely on? My sister wants to entrust him to find a matchmaker for her marriage?
Tao Xinhe didn't know how all of this happened. Obviously, before reconciling with her, she was the one who was more acquainted with the civil servant man, so Gu Ningxi had to rely on her to remind her.
Shaking her head, Tao Xinhe suppressed her chaotic thoughts, but at that moment just now, the feeling of peace at the thought of Gu Ningxi was lingering.
Coming out of Tao Xinqiang, the afternoon spring breeze blows past, Tao Xinhe's chest feels cold, she looks down at her daughter's tears, and smiles involuntarily.
However, this familiar feeling of wetness reminded Tao Xinhe of Mo Qiqi who also relied on her to cry and howl when she visited Xingu's mansion last month.
At this moment, under the **** of her foster relatives, this girl has already left the capital, halfway there, right?
