MTL - She Doesn’t Want the Face-Blind Husband-Chapter 17
Gu Ningxi and Tao Xinhe and his wife lay down side by side. He still wanted to say a few soft private words, took a few deep breaths, and just as soon as he said "Han Niang", he heard the woman's rare hoarse and ambiguous voice almost at the same time: " Husband, let's talk about things tomorrow. When you wake up, you will have auspicious new year, so let's rest." Wuxin revealed a bit of tact and tenderness.
Gu Ningxi looked sideways, and saw that the lady had fallen asleep with her eyes closed, her breathing was steady, and her expression was peaceful.
The reply he held between his lips and teeth was only mouthed without making a sound: "Han Niang, the young year is auspicious, and I hope to be with you every year." Then he pulled the bed hook and put down the bed curtain, in the darkness, accompanied by the lady's faint smile Body fragrance, sleep peacefully.
In the next few days, just as Gu Ningxi thought, Tao Xinqiang acted like a baby and lingered on her wife, never leaving her. There was no time when the husband and wife were alone, let alone a kiss.
The lady would say from time to time: "Husband, my sister and I are talking about our daughter's private room, can you go to the study to read a book?" Invite him out of the main room, guest room, flower hall and other places where the sisters are, even as a background board. None to him.
Gu Ningxi was silently painting in the study, and the painting was exactly the century-old phoenix picture requested by Hong's relatives. It was quite fruitful for several days in a row, and on the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, it was only a matter of adding the last few strokes of cinnabar, but the servant accidentally knocked over the last box of cinnabar.
Gu Ningxi took care of her heart, and imitated his wife and sister's behavior and let his wife accompany him to the paint shop to buy it. He said that only he could buy the exact color, and that the wife needed to talk to the shopkeeper.
Despite the outspoken wife and sister's ridicule of "killing a chicken with a sledgehammer", Gu Ningxi got her wish and took Tao Xinhe out on the morning of the 28th.
Tao Xinhe was very worried about the third sister, and told her again and again: "I told you to go with me, but you didn't want to. Don't be naughty in the mansion alone. Your brother-in-law and I will be back at noon."
Gu Ningxi added seemingly unintentionally: "It's not necessarily true, if it's troublesome to buy, my wife and I will return after having dinner outside, and Qiangniang can do whatever she wants."
Tao Xinqiang sent away her sister and brother-in-law who seemed to be singing oboe in a funny way, and guarded Xingu's mansion by herself. Not long after she looked through the decorations in the guest room, she saw Qingfang, the eldest maid specially left for her by her sister, nervously sending her a message that there was a girl surnamed Mo outside the house who wanted to visit her brother-in-law by name.

Gu Ningxi also went shopping with his wife in the past, but because of his face blindness, he often came and went in a hurry, and just bought the things he wanted to buy.
Today it was so easy to pry the lady away from his wife and sister, Gu Ningxi was gearing up to spend more time with her, even if she came into contact with strangers.
Tao Xinhe is always willing to be sociable, she hasn't had a good time shopping since the twelfth lunar month, so she half pushed and agreed to Gu Ningxi, and came out to see the lively market together.
She was full of interest and didn't care to talk to her husband, just peeped out from the corner of the car curtain with a happy smile on her face.
Today she is wearing a newly-tailored long gown and skirt, which was sewed by the embroiderer who spent a whole month after measuring it.
But careless people will not be able to find that this is a new dress, because it is still the same as the old **** yellow butterfly pattern, and the collar and cuffs are embellished with some elements of wide borders that are fashionable in Beijing.
Since childhood, Tao Xinhe has changed back to her old dressing habits. Even though the details of the clothes are different every day, Gu Ningxi looks at the familiar **** yellow, and once again finds the certainty and peace of mind, the joy of regaining the lost will overflow, and it will naturally appear on the outside.
As far as Tao Xinhe was concerned, she didn't want her younger sister to say something to Mu Xian after she returned to the Tao Mansion, causing her impulsive younger brother to think wildly and worry about her married life. By the way, on the 22nd day, she was satisfied with testing her husband for a whole day, so it was not worth embarrassing the person next to her and bringing a lot of inconvenience to her life.
However, she did not expect her husband to be so happy.
The maids and servants discussed in private, saying that the master has been in a very good mood recently, and his temper has become three points enthusiastic, and he was really warmed up by his wife. Even Tao Xinqiang teased her sister quietly, her brother-in-law seemed to be a different person, more popular. Only Tao Xinhe showed no reaction.
At this time, they were walking on the main street, the cars and horses were sparkling, and the speed was not fast, because the pedestrians on both sides were rubbing shoulders, all buying new year's goods, and beaming.
The hustle and bustle of the street attracted the spirit of spring ahead of time, and Tao Xinhe noticed with sharp eyes that the old willow trees beside the road were faintly sprouting green buds, which was very comfortable to look at.
However, she put down the curtain of the car with her slightly raised tail fingertips, and asked the husband in the same car with a straight face: "Why are you staring at me all the way?" The heart that is reddened by the sight.
"My wife is beautiful." Gu Ningxi blurted out the truth, regardless of Liu Guang and her knowledge of painting, she was waiting at the corner of the car to be served.
Originally, Tao Xinhe would be confused by such sweet words, but since she knew that her husband could see other women's faces clearly, she no longer wanted to hear this sentence. Her heart instantly cooled down, and her face really condensed.
The clever painter dragged Liu Guang to sit beside the driver outside the carriage, only Gu Ningxi was at a loss, her eyes were as bright as fire, her lips were smiling like a crescent moon, she was sitting cross-legged with her upper body leaning towards Tao Xinhe, her shoulders and neck were beautiful, she was truly excellent appearance.
Tao Xinhe felt that it was time to have a serious talk with her husband about Mo Qiqi after leaving it for a few days, so she said in a cold voice, "I don't dare to be Si Cheng Miao Zan because of my manly appearance. Leave your sweet words to me. You can really see the face of the person, wouldn't it be a good match for both?"
Gu Ningxi immediately realized that the lady's words were wrong, she quickly withdrew her smile, stood up solemnly, and pushed away the short chair between the two, ignoring Tao Xinhe's vague resistance, gently grabbed her left hand, pulled it into her arms, and Just sticking it to his heart, he put his hand on the back of the woman's palm.
"My lady, my heart is all about you and only you." Along with the man's steady and powerful "thump, thud, thump", Gu Ningxi's words were close to her ears, and her breath could be heard, and each word was sent into Tao Xinhe's heart.
The fingers of her left hand curled up slightly, drawing fine lines on Gu Ningxi's clothes, like ripples thrown into water by Gu Ningxi's big hand, and she was soon wrapped by Gu Ningxi's big hand, finger by finger, and continued to press firmly on his chest, as if she wanted to cut her heart out Giving it to her is like begging for her approval with heartbeat testimony.
"Can you really see Miss Mo as a younger sister like Ru Ning?" This is what Tao Xinhe is most worried about.
She could see the person in front of her clearly, held her breath after asking, and searched for the answer on Gu Ningxi's face with her eyes.
Gu Ningxi thought that the title of "righteous sister" was enough to appease the lady, but only after hearing this did she realize that she was thinking simply.
His gestures remained the same, and after straightening out his thoughts with lowered eyes, he said carefully and softly: "I'm not going to hide my wife, I was flustered, confused, anxious, and self-conscious when I first met her before we got married." , he sighed "ah", as if he was ashamed of his behavior at that time.
Coughing twice, Gu Ningxi stroked the woman's slender hand with her thumb back and forth, and murmured to herself: "Now, I can say with certainty that Mo Qiqi is just a younger sister to me, and I will follow what her brother said. Find her husband's younger sister, righteous sister."
Looking at the fuzzy face of the lady in front of her, and not knowing how she would react after hearing this, Gu Ningxi could only be encouraged by her motionless posture, and continued: "Ning Niang grew up with me, the only direct cousin, if you want to talk about affection, Naturally, it is much deeper than Qiniang. Well, if I have to make an analogy, perhaps, Qiniang is a bit like my wife and sister Qiangniang to me. They will be related by chance, and I have the support of a righteous brother and brother-in-law for them. responsibility. How dare I, and how can I have such dirty thoughts?"
Although Tao Xinhe was not happy that he treated her sister the same as Mo Qiqi who blatantly teased men in the alley, she finally understood and could half believe it.
She quietly relaxed her muscles and bones, smiled from the corners of her eyes, shook her hands and spat softly: "I don't know what's on your mind, let go quickly, the servant may not know what to think about outside."
Gu Ningxi let go as she said, and brushed Tao Xinhexue's cheeks with her free palm, as if brushing the strings of a piano, bringing out a tingling sensation, and said solemnly: "Beauty is in the bone but not in the skin. Because I am blind, I am not confused by the five senses, I feel that the beauty of the lady is breathtaking."
This is a response to Tao Xinhe's first sour words.
Tao Xinhe chewed secretly, first she was sweet, but because her husband was blind to one person, there was a slight bit of astringency, she tried her best to dispel these complicated tastes.
The author has something to say:
Inspired by the readers' babies, I really asked the little girl to give away shoes.
Don't worry, everyone, let Gu Ningxi seem to coax her daughter-in-law for a while, and the crematorium is behind.
