She Doesn’t Want the Face-Blind Husband

"Little brother, do you think that Tao Layman agrees to accept such a big item as a lantern, and still cares about the addition of spices? You don't want to go in and ask, which annoys the master. Take it." Uncle The servants of the mansion stuffed the exquisite wooden box into the arms of the porter, and shouted to the three people behind, to properly hand over the large and small lanterns to the servants of the Tao mansion.

Following the housekeeper's instructions, the eight servants who had their own affairs came to the door from all directions, and they were a little surprised when they saw the beautiful lanterns. As if suddenly remembering that the gift giver was still there, everyone tensed up again, and carefully took these festive gifts into the backyard, but the joy of holding the delicate objects was as real as it was, diffused in the air.

Seeing the light outside the door of Tao's mansion gradually drifting into the screen wall, the servants of Bo's mansion quickly turned around and escaped into the night, Gu Ningxi put down the curtain of the car stiffly, sat back in the carriage, and let her upper body lean against the wall of the car as if she was exhausted.

After a long time, two erratic words were sent out: "Let's go."

Gu's carriage just left, the porters were somewhat startled, and murmured to each other: "It turns out that Gu Sicheng has been here all along." "Hiding in the dark and making no noise, I thought he had left early."

**

Tao Xinhe felt abdominal pain and discomfort, so she simply sent Qingfang to inspect the lanterns sent by Ji Changbo. After washing herself, she lay down, hid in the soft and comfortable silk quilt, wrapped herself tightly from head to toe, and lay on her back. Close your eyes, put your hands on your belly, and wait for sleep in silence.

Tonight, Tao Xinhe was exhausted from dealing with two men's requests to meet and give gifts one after another, and her thoughts were quite disturbed. Being alone quietly, as if some barrier had been opened suddenly, all kinds of emotions spread overwhelmingly, she said to herself, no one knows, you can indulge a little bit, just for a short while, think about Gu Ningxi.

After the reconciliation, he was silent, and he never inquired about it. Tao Xinhe kept admonishing himself, treating it as someone he had been with in the previous life, and not bringing memories into this life.

Tao Xinhe thought that she had done a good job. Until two quarters of an hour ago, I suddenly heard that this person was not far away from the gate of the mansion.

For a very brief moment, she wanted to see him, to meet Gu Ningxi, to meet Gu Ningxi who had probably been with other women for five days.

Fortunately, Qingfang didn't hold back her strength, and turned from rubbing to patting, which reminded her and woke her up.

He Li was the one who mentioned it by herself, and it was she who left him the message "The sea is bright, the sky is cloudy and the rain is coming", and it was she who forced to complete the testimony within two hours after receiving He Li's book.

Everything is for cutting, for separation, for clean and tidy, without muddling.

Now that the matter has come to this, why does Gu Ningxi's actions still affect her deepest emotions?

Sooner or later, he will take a concubine and protect Mo Qiqi under his wings. This is what he said himself. Could it be that he will not be able to completely let go until that day really comes?

No, no, no, it’s not like this, Tao Xinhe thinks that she is just healing her wounds, digging out the carrion in her heart, and growing new muscles to fill it, it will always hurt, even the mysterious "phantom pain" that doctors have said, like carrion and flesh. It's the same as living with each other and exerting power.

I just hope that this painful stage can be shorter, and then shorter.

The colic pain in the lower abdomen woke up Tao Xinhe. It turned out that she fell asleep thinking about it.

At this time, there was a familiar feeling of wetness from under her body, and Tao Xinhe felt it, and softly called: "Qingfang, Qingfang?"

Sure enough, Qingfang was on watch for her on the Arhat couch in the corner of the room. She woke up when she heard the sound, and heard her master order: "Light a little lamp for me."

Qingfang did as she said, and approached Tao Xinhe in her coat, protecting the faint flame in the lampshade with one hand, and asked softly, "Where should I look?"

Tao Xinhe sat up, took the lamp in silence, lifted the corner of the quilt on the inside with one hand, and cast her gaze over it. As expected, it was bright red, like the color of rotten meat.

The first thought that came to mind was that she really had nothing to do with Gu Ningxi and had nothing to do with her anymore. She smiled Shi Shiran, breathed a long sigh of relief, handed back the lamp to Qingfang, and said word by word: "My sunflower water is here."

With quick hands and feet, Qingfang helped Tao Xinhe change clothes and quilts, took the menstrual belt, passed Mrs. Tang, and put the master to lie down again. She couldn't help saying: "Now, everyone is happy."

Tao Xinhe was turning her head and body slightly, looking for a relatively comfortable posture. Hearing the words, she paused for a while, feeling that timing is really the most mysterious thing in the world.

Not long ago, when Gu Ningxi was still her husband, the two of them whispered in the boudoir about the old Gu's mansion and about children. Gu Ningxi unintentionally mentioned a sentence: "Mother's birthday is coming soon. If the lady is pregnant recently, it is just time to pray and tell her the old man. Grandmother must be happy with this good news, and everyone must be happy."

Less than 20 days after those words, it became a happy thing for everyone to confirm that she was infertile.

"Okay, I just miss him for a while before going to bed. No matter whether it's because Qingfang accidentally repeated Gu Ningxi's words, don't think about this person anymore." Tao Xinhe answered Qingfang vaguely, and said with her breath "Go to sleep." I don't know whether to tell Qingfang or tell herself.

**

When she woke up, the sky was bright, and Tao Xinhe missed the usual time for breakfast.

The sixteenth of the first lunar month, according to the most relaxed standards, the New Year's Eve is over, and it's time to live normally.

She knew that she should get up quickly, take care of the housework, and order the servants; go to see her younger siblings and care about her situation; go to her father's study to find out if he is staying overnight at the parts pile; more importantly, she must arrest Qiangniang to talk about her , It was too late to return home last night, it really shouldn't be.

The intestines are also clamoring, they have wriggled all night, and have already exhausted their nutrients, and urgently need new food from the owner.

However, the long-awaited sunflower water brought a rare dreamless night. Tao Xinhe felt her whole body was lazy, and she didn't even want to move her fingertips or hair, as if the attendant could enter the land of darkness and sweetness again.

There was a soft sound of the door, and the sound of footsteps, probably Qingfang came in from the outside, and Xi Xi's rustling movements gradually approached the bed.

Tao Xinhe narrowed her eyes, twisted her neck, and said, "Is it Qingfang? I woke up."

"Sister, I've been waiting for you for half a day, why did you sleep for so long?" Qiangniang's energetic chirping came from outside the bed curtain.

The next moment, the curtain was opened carelessly, and Tao Xinqiang poked her pretty pink face in, urging her sister to get up.

The bright sunlight outside rushed in, encroaching on this quiet little world that belonged exclusively to Tao Xinhe, what could she do? While muttering about her sister's lack of discipline, she raised her chin resignedly and signaled Qingfang, who was two steps behind her sister, to come over and help her get dressed.

Tao Xinqiang circled around Tao Xinhe like a little bee, trying to figure out how to match her clothes and jewelry. After a long while, she finally got to the point: "Sister, Ji Changbo sent so many lanterns last night, why did you come back?" What's the matter? There is also the box of Chenshuixiang, I gently opened a corner and smelled it, the fragrance has no impurities at all, it is so pure, it must be very precious, right?"

Listening to the first half, Tao Xinhe was still facing the bronze mirror, gesturing to his ears with tourmaline earrings or red gold earrings, which would better match a taro purple dress. It should be said that Ji Changbo must have been silent for too long, and seized himself as a The agreeable friends got along with each other warmly, but after hearing that, the two earrings in her hand fell off in response, the tourmaline fell out cracks, and the soft gold rubbed scratches.

"Submerged spices?" Tao Xinhe asked in a startled voice.

**

This is not right.

Ji Changbo and himself have known each other for less than ten days, and they have given gifts many times before, not to mention their own banners, but they are not considered expensive, the rare thing lies in their delicacy.

However, the delivery of the lantern was already an accident after I refused, and the beautiful woman's revolving lantern was even more ostentatious.

Tao Xinhe's thoughts are clear now, and when she thinks back to last night, if she hadn't heard the news from Gu Ningxi, some emotions might have been aroused in her heart, maybe she wouldn't have thought of the entrustment of a man who was almost a stranger to "let go of her arms", and wouldn't have considered the gift of courtesy. The family still didn't take care of the details of Ji Changbo's face, etc., nodded to the servants, and at the same time thought about what gift to give to Bo's house today.

Do your own servants make their own decisions? The words of the servants of the uncle's house are hooked? No matter how unwilling Tao Xinhe was to accept such precious spices from others, no matter how uncomfortable he was, he had to order chariots and horses to go to Jichangbo's mansion to return the gift and explain.

It would be best to find out what kind of medicine is sold in Uncle's gourd, and why does he put on a chasing attitude?

Tao Xinqiang yelled that she wanted to go to the uncle's mansion together to see and see. Tao Xinhe sipped the jujube soup and glared at her from the side of the bowl: "You reflect in the mansion, Ning Niang and Cheng Jia are unmarried couples, and they are two elders who went to the lantern market together last night. I acquiesce, why are you running to join in the fun?"

Tao Xinqiang became shy, hesitated, and said half-concealed, "Sister, can...can you help me find a husband...like Cheng Jia?"

With a "bang", Tao Xinhe slapped the small porcelain bowl on the table, and threw out two heavy words: "Nonsense!"

After blowing away the sobbing and choking younger sister, Tao Xinhe felt a pain in her head, stomach and heart, and she didn't know how to prevent it.

After thinking about it, she decided to go to the Gu family's second wife's mansion first, resigned from the job of handling the woman's marriage, settled the settlement on the spot, and then asked Second Aunt Gu to accompany her to the uncle's mansion, rejecting any strange ideas from the uncle.

In the end, he came back to the house and spent a lot of time trying to correct his sister's silly thoughts.

"Miss Mo, sit here for a while, they're going in to report to the Lord." Mo Qiqi thanked the concierge of Gu's mansion, tugged at the hem of her clothes, and sat in the ear room inside the gate of Gu's mansion tremblingly, leaning close to the stove lit by the servants Slowly toast your hands.

Back an hour ago, in the early morning of the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, the rising sun was rising slightly, and there was a rosy glow in the sky. Mo Qiqi asked the neighbor who just came back last night to help look at the small courtyard of Mo's house where the door was locked. The team rushed back before going to the door to chant sutras.

Mo Qiqi led Liu Guang and Zhuiyun to eat a bowl of wontons at the wonton stall that opened early at the entrance of the alley.

Hot wontons with diced mustard greens and meat are squeezed together in a simple brown stoneware bowl. When the spoon is gently stirred, the small oil flakes and finely chopped green onions on the clear soup base quickly give way to the bulging Zhengzhu. Thin-skinned wontons, please make an appearance, and by the way, the aroma also rolls into the noses of the girls.

Seeing the other two eating deliciously, Liu Guang suddenly thought, is this the wonton stall that Li Shu said, Madam saw the master and Miss Mo saying goodbye?

Now and then, the madam withdraws quickly, but according to her cold eyes, the master and Miss Mo are probably hot with shaved heads, and they have to be entangled.

Liu Guang didn't understand why Ms. Mo couldn't understand the various hints from the master these days, such as the righteous sister is the eternal family, the concubine's room is controlled by others and cannot be free, etc.

She has not read the book, and she is not the same as Miss Mo, but she can guess that the master has regretted the matter of taking concubines from the bottom of his heart.

And what about Miss Mo? After waiting for his elder brother's funeral, he carried himself into Gu's mansion in a small sedan chair, wholeheartedly serving his master and wife, and seeking shelter for the rest of his life. In his spare time these days, he kept making embroidered handkerchiefs, Waiting to deliver to Mrs.

No one told Mo Qiqi that there is no wife in the Gu family, and the Tao family has divorced.

After finally getting past Mo Qiqi's first seven, Mo Qiqi could no longer bear the anxiety in her heart, for fear that she would be caught by Tao Shi in being Gu Ningxi's concubine. This was her understanding of "Brother Xi"'s indifferent attitude.

On the early morning of the 16th day of the first lunar month, Mo Qiqi urged the servant girls to accompany her to the Gu Mansion and beg to see his wife.

This time was chosen to take advantage of the fact that Gu Ningxi should be in the mansion before she arrives at the Ministry of Rites.

Mo Qiqi thought, Tao was kind-hearted in his previous life, and his human nature in this life will not change greatly. As long as he kneels down and begs her to take him in, brother Xi will be beating the drums beside him, and he should be able to decide to enter the mansion this morning. Matters, let yourself feel at ease.

So, she came, and Liu Guang and Zhuiyun sat in the side room with them, waiting for the transmission.
