MTL - She Doesn’t Want the Face-Blind Husband-v2 Chapter 109

Following the light of the lantern held by the servant girl in front, Tao Xinhe came out of the study, thinking about things while walking, her eyes fell blankly on the corner of the skirt where the butterflies were flying.

Just now, her father Tao Cheng gave her a rough talk about the **** during the day.

According to his judgment, Gu Ningran's charges are certain.

The emperor personally ordered a judge to serve as security for Gu Ningxi. The evidence is conclusive. This person is punished for three crimes in terms of personal morality, plus his negligence as an official. Quartet, to warn others.

What Tao Cheng specifically described to Tao Xinhe was one of the quarrels.

Gu Ningran took the initiative to confess that she went to the Zhuangzi of Tao Mansion in the suburbs of Beijing during her holidays, and it was Tao Xinhe who sent a letter asking him to go secretly to discuss the song. As for the sender, the letters, etc., he always responded by saying that he didn't remember them, rubbed them up and threw them away, and it was obvious that he wanted to pour dirty water on Tao Xinhe's body.

This is not enough, while everyone at the scene was stunned and speechless for a moment, Gu Ningran went up to her head frantically, dancing and said, Tao Shi was restless in the room, and when he was still his cousin and daughter-in-law, every family gathering always had affectionate eyes and ambiguous words. He hooked up with him because he was concerned about Gu Ningxi and didn't agree.

When the two reconciled, he thought, pity the lonely woman in her boudoir, so he did a good deed, went to comfort her, at least said a few nice words to her cousin, and considered him as a kind and righteous cousin.

Unexpectedly, Gu Ningxi didn't appreciate it, and wanted to silence him after following him.

Veins popped out on Gu Ningran's neck, regardless of the solemnity of the occasion, she provoked Gu Ningxi and said: "I have no ability to keep women and make them unable to have children. Why are you crazy about me? In Tao's eyes, I am a hundred times stronger than you, What's the use of you being sour?"

Originally, Gu Ningxi didn't mention Tao Xinhe at all, so it was unbearable, before Tao became the eldest daughter's reputation, he covered his chest with one hand, held the armrest of the chair tightly with the other to support himself to stand up, uttered eloquently and eloquently, Gu Ningran scolded her body badly.

In terms of loyalty as a minister, Gu Ning was ashamed of the imperial court. She had a vegetarian meal in her corpse and blindly relied on the shadow of her grandfather, the prime minister, without making any achievements for many years;

On the filial piety of the sons and grandchildren, Gu Ningran stole the hairpin from the grandfather's relics for her own use, indulged the person next to her pillow to poison her grandmother, made a fuss when offering sacrifices to the ancestors in the first month, almost missed the sacrifice, and stunned the grandmother;

In terms of rules and etiquette, he has been seeking prostitutes and sleeping with them, which violates the law, rapes/humiliates the women and beats them afterwards, risking death;

In terms of being a brother's friend, let alone Gu Ningxi, the cousin of the same ancestor, he shouted and shouted at his own brothers and sisters, and suppressed him in every possible way;

On righteousness, on honesty, on shame, on respect...

Gu Ningxi was articulate, with a pleasant voice, citing scriptures and evidence, if written down, it would be a very wonderful appeal to brother, if he said it in one go, if there was a draft, everyone present would be fascinated.

In the next step, after Gu Ningxi comprehensively criticized Gu Ningran's character, she said: "How can there be a single word for such a thief's words?" completely overturned his words of slandering Tao Xinhe like a mad dog barking.

Next, Gu Ningxi coughed a few times, raised her finger to wipe away the bloodshot lips, strolled to the center of the courtroom like a leisurely stroll, cupped her hands upward, and changed the subject:

"My lord, although I have reconciled with Tao Yuanwailang's eldest daughter, we have been married for more than three years, and I know her character of chaste, quiet, dignified, courageous and responsible. She has nothing to do with this case, but I really can't bear someone to listen to Gu Ningran. With just a few words, I left a bad impression on her, please allow me to refute the theory that Gu Ningran is a genius."

Feeling Gu Ningxi's sincerity, the judge nodded his head for the first time, and listened with great interest to the official from the Ministry of Rites to sing praises for his ex-wife in an orderly and emotional way.

Tao Cheng was present at the time, and he could feel the eyes of the officials sizing up between the former husband-in-law and his son-in-law.

If he wasn't Tao Xinhe's father, he would probably be curious too. The Tao parents and daughters that Gu Ningxi said are all good, they are like the gods of Gushe, they are fair and kind to others, and the couple Qin Se and Ming are intimate with each other, why did they suddenly reconcile? ?

So after hearing this, Tao Cheng thought in a daze, was he boasting about his daughter who never left any room for divorce? Was it Tao Xinhe, the eldest daughter of his family who ignored him?

Tao Cheng, whose face was hot, couldn't help coughing a few times, reminding Gu Ningxi not to brag too much.

When he came back to face his daughter at night, Tao Cheng deleted the complicated and kept it simple, and briefly talked about some points that Gu Ningxi praised her in front of everyone, such as her dedication to her mother-in-law's filial piety, her kindness to her cousins, her lenient and strict control, etc.

Tao Xinhe didn't respond in front of her father. Now she was walking in the soft and warm spring breeze, watching the flickering light of the candle as big as a bean, and her thoughts flew along:

It turns out that Gu Ningxi's devotion to her for more than three years can be counted like treasures, her memory is so accurate, and she doesn't hesitate to praise her, so she is not a wife in vain.

It's just that this person doesn't care about the occasion, doesn't he know that all the words spoken in the courtroom will be recorded and submitted to the emperor and Yousi?

He is not afraid of others who see the record at the scene and later speculate, since the daughter-in-law is so perfect, is it because the husband is not good enough to reconcile?

"Ai" a woman sighed vaguely, and was blown to the horizon by the wind.

It seemed that it was blowing to Gu Ningxi's ears.

He was sitting in front of Mrs. Gu's bed in Xin Gu's mansion, and told her the details of today's interrogation. He inexplicably felt itchy in his ears, so he couldn't help but raised his hand and rubbed it lightly.

Mo Qiqi stood aside, seeing this and asked concerned: "What's the matter, Brother Xi? Are there any bugs?"

How could Gu Ningxi say that he seemed to feel a woman's breath brushing against his ears just now, and his heart tightened?

He understood that if he said it, the family members and servants in the room would laugh and secretly laugh.

So he just shook his head, and turned to tell Mo Qiqi: "Mosquitoes breed a lot in spring, Qiniang takes care of grandma, please take care of her, the housekeeper is dispensing medicine powder according to the prescriptions of the past years, and sprinkle it on the corners and walls in a few days." The above will help a lot.”

Mo Qiqi muttered in a low voice: "What do you mean by a lot of fruit? Brother Xi unintentionally said something incomprehensible." She pouted, because of this, she always felt like a fool when she was around Gu Ningxi, and she had to use her brains Guess the meaning of his strange words.

This kind of discomfort was enough to offset the thoughtfulness brought to her by Gu Ningxi's focused gaze.

Moreover, the way Gu Ningxi looked at her was different from other people's eyes, obviously more accurate and more stable, but that day at the restaurant, he had seen her weeping at Tao's spine, wanting to look but not daring to look at her. Qiqi completely understands the meaning of "the word love is the hardest to force and hide" that his brother Mo Qi said when he was alive.

"Grandmother, write slowly." Gu Ningxi's soft voice pulled back Mo Qiqi's thoughts, and turned to her eyes.

The ability to be considerate to patients honed from her experience in taking care of her brother can come in handy again. It is not necessary for Mrs. Gu to write down the meaning word by word, as long as she writes a few key words, Mo Qiqi can be the spokesperson Explain clearly to the surroundings, which greatly saves the strength of the elderly and sick.

Old Madam Gu hated Gu Ningran, felt guilty towards Gu Ningxi, and felt a little more pity for Mo Qiqi, all reflected in her messy handwriting.

She wrote that she wanted Gu Ningxi to revisit the clan and drive Gu Ningran out of the clan. She also said that she wanted to recognize Mo Qiqi as her granddaughter and put it under the name of the big house, that is, to recognize the dead uncle Gu and his wife as righteous parents.

In this way, it is far more effective than Gu Ningxi's only recognition of his righteous sister.

He also recognized Mo Qiqi as a righteous sister back then, but there was no ceremony, so it was not inappropriate to change it to a concubine in terms of etiquette. Now that the grandmother speaks, she is a certain girl, the same or almost the same generation as Gu Runing.

Mo Qiqi's eyes lit up a little, and she immediately called out "Grandmother" sweetly and softly. The old man smiled after hearing this, but Second Aunt Gu who was beside her didn't stop her, she simply acquiesced.

Gu Ningxi thought to herself, in this way, can He Niang feel more at ease about her relationship with Qiniang? Surely he wouldn't be so heartless and disregarding human relations that he would have any trouble with the righteous sister who was named?

Grandma patted her shoulder with stiff hands, Gu Ningxi understood, stood up and saluted Mo Qiqi: "Greetings to my righteous sister."

"It's finally as you wished, brother Yi." Mo Qiqi knew that this was the best result for her, Gu Ningxi would definitely follow the elder's instructions to take good care of her, so she changed her words cleverly, which made Second Aunt Gu look at her with admiration.

It turned out that Mo Qiqi had been called "Brother Xi" before, not because he didn't understand the ambiguity of this title, but because he was pretending to be stupid, maybe it was to remind Gu Ningxi that she was special, that she would not be easily left behind, and would not be alone. .

Second Aunt Gu sighed secretly, this is probably what He Niang mentioned - the cleverness in the market.

On such an unremarkable night, the status of siblings was confirmed under the witness of the elders. It was considered a fulfillment of the strange fate that God made Gu Ningxi see Mo Qiqi's face clearly. In two days, he took Mo Qiqi to worship and pray. It's just a follow-up.

Second Aunt Gu felt a lot of emotion, if it had happened two months earlier, Brother Xi wouldn't have reconciled with He Niang, right?

Her thoughts turned to what her daughter told her about her visit to Tao's Mansion last night. Tao Xinhe sent things, but said it was in the name of her lack of skills to appease her daughter-in-law in the mansion and make her feel moved.

Tao Xinhe is truly a well-deserved genius and a top-notch person, will Brother Xi still have the good fortune to chase her back? Does she still care about Brother Xi? Against the backdrop of Uncle Ji Chang, Cheng Shicheng?

Second Aunt Gu sighed deeply, Brother Xi will definitely do something in the officialdom within ten years, and promotion is just around the corner. It's a pity that He Niang is not a person who values ​​official status or family property. Which "one-hearted person" is she looking for now?

Cheng Shicheng was also thinking about this question in Jichangbo Mansion on the other side of the capital.

He heard that Gu Ningxi openly praised Tao Xinhe's deeds in the lobby during the day.

He thought, hmph, the pretense of being infatuated with old love is ostentatious, Gu Ningxi is unavoidably a literati, and she plays her lip service really well. But what's the use? Mo Qiqi was still firmly guarding by his side.

In contrast, his surroundings are completely clean, can it be the icing on the cake in A Tao's heart?

Cheng Shicheng turned to try to figure out Tao Xinhe's thoughts, would she be moved by Gu Ningxi's indirect rhetoric?

The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became, Cheng Shicheng decided to go to the Tao Mansion early in the morning to find out what Tao Xinhe said, and he had to find a way to dispel the effectiveness of Gu Ningxi's trick today.

Since A Tao wrote a promise to look forward to the future with him, he, Cheng Shicheng, would not allow her to go back on his word.

Since Gu Ningxi let go and missed A Tao, no matter what the inside story of the joint was, he came to break the bricks and nail the feet, cutting off the possibility of the two of them reliving their love dreams.
