Chapter 63 - The comer is not good nine
The comer is not good nine
Tao Mo was startled, and somehow asked, but still answered honestly: “Old man.”
“A strange old friend, a familiar old friend, or an old friend between strange and familiar?”
Tao Mo thought for a moment and thought, “The old man between strange and familiar… right?”
Gu She turned slowly. In the thick shade, his eyes were stinging cold.
“Why do you ask?” Tao Mo asked cautiously.
Gu She said: “You don’t care about him like an ordinary old man.”
Tao Mo quickly explained: “I just think this case is a little bit weird. After all, it’s an acquaintance, I don’t want him to die unclearly.” He saw Gu She still stared at him, thinking he was unbelieving, and said, “What’s more, I can only think about it this way, but I’m too busy to help.” He has self-knowledge, knowing that even if he is the county magistrate of Tanyang County, he can only manage the small case of sesame and green beans in Yangyang County. The case in the neighboring county was never his turn.
Gu She’s heart moved slightly.
He seemed to impose his mood on the other party too naturally. In his mind, there are only a handful of people who can make him so concerned, but for Tao Mo, he is just too scared to just pull out his hair. Feeling vaguely displeased and vaguely relieved, he was unclear for a while what kind of taste was rolling in his heart. He actually made him sleepless at night, but he subconsciously listened to the movement across the wall, even when Tao Mo went out. Followed without hesitation.
“You can’t sleep at this late hour?” Tao Mo asked.
and also?
Gu She looked down at the young man who was only one step away, but was bathed in the moonlight and was shone as pale as snow. “Thinking about the case?”
“Think a lot.” Tao Mo opened his mouth and wanted to sigh, but could the depression and sadness in his chest be sighed clean in one breath?
Gu Shedao: “Do you want to clear this case?”
“Think, but it’s not easy.” Tao Mo shook his head and smiled bitterly. “I often say that I want to be a good official, a good official who asks for the people, but it’s easy to say and difficult to do. Many of them are talents who have read poetry and books. They still do a lot of trembling. I don’t know a few characters. How can I do it? After all, it’s not going to be a big deal.” After he finished speaking, he felt his shoulders relaxed. . It was only when Tanyang County became the county magistrate that he knew how naive he had been before! But he couldn’t tell Lao Tao about these words, nor could he tell Hao Guoguo, because he was their hope and their pillar, and he backed down, and they were even more at a loss. So I can only secretly endure, even if I have such emotions in my heart, I dare not express it, and even suppress it immediately when this emotion appears.
More often than not, his sentence of being a good official is not his ideal, but his motivation and his burden. Although he has already made up his mind, the future is bumpy and he can’t help himself.
After Tao Mo finished his complaint, he realized that Gu She hadn’t answered for a long time and couldn’t help looking up at him.
Gu Shemei has a gentleness that can’t be recovered.
“Me, I’m useless.” Tao Mo didn’t start awkwardly. He didn’t know why he just spit out his brain for so long with such a brazen mind. Perhaps Gu She is too strong, so in front of him, he does not have to force himself to make a strong look, even if he does, Gu She is not right? He even felt that Gu She’s eyes had made him look no matter how many times, whether it was mind or emotion.
“If you are useless like this, it would be useless to leave people that day.” Gu She said lightly.
Tao Mo was thinking about this sentence, and he was shocked, “I, you…you mean, uh.”
“It’s not difficult to know the truth.” Gu She quickly shifted the topic.
Tao Mo was disappointed. Because just at the moment, he almost felt that Gu She appreciated himself.
“The case is done by people, and the place where there is someone will never be perfect.” Gu She didn’t mean deeply, “whether it’s character or way of doing things.”
Tao Mo listened in a daze.
Gu Shedao: “The woodman is just a move, it can be white or black.”
Tao Mo was contemplative for a long while, suddenly bright, “You mean, start with the woodcutter?”
Gu She took his hand upstairs.
Tao Mo got advice and was overjoyed. When he saw him going, he grabbed his arm without thinking and said, “Thank you.”
Gu She looked down at the red hand that had been frozen on the big clot.
Tao Mo shrank his hand in a hurry and said with a smile: “I was in a hurry…”
“Go back.” Gu She interrupted him lightly.
In the first half of the night, Tao Mo couldn’t sleep because he was helpless. In the middle of the night, Tao Mo still had trouble sleeping because of the countermeasures.
On the second day, there was a noise in the outside corridor, and he got his eyes shut, and he asked the guy in the store to get a pot of hot water for washing.
Then I went to the inn lobby for breakfast and waited for the others to come down.
The waiting time is the most difficult. Finally, when old Tao and Master Jin come down, Tao Mo has already drunk three bowls of soy milk.
“Master?” Old Tao was surprised. Although Tao Mo does not like to rely on the bed, in the end he is a young man, and it is inevitable to be drowsy.
Master Jin sat down with the old pottery and greeted the shop buddy to bring it early.
Seeing Tao Mo’s expressions stopped, the old Tao simply asked actively: “Master, but are you worried?”
Tao Mo tentatively said: “I was thinking about the case of the evening breeze.”
Master Jin’s hand holding the steamed bun paused, and a dark cloud appeared faintly above his eyebrows.
Old Tao said quietly: “Master wants to manage this case?”
Tao Modao: “It’s not a matter of control, I just want to find out. If this woodman is a real murderer, then of course it’s good. If not, wouldn’t he live up to two lives?”
Master Jin said: “Don’t worry about the family. This case is a matter of human life. The county magistrate said it was not counted. Finally, the emperor Yubi Zhu approved it before counting.”
Tao Mo froze, “Will the emperor rule?”
Master Jin said with a smile: “Of course.”
Old Tao gave him a meaningful look. Although the death penalty requires the emperor to decide, but the emperor has every reason to do so, where will he pay attention to these small cases? Usually pass the two passes of the county magistrate, the lumberjack’s life is gone.
Tao Mo was slightly relieved, and said: “Both, it has won some time.”
Master Jin smiled, “Is the club still prepared to intervene in this matter?”
“Not interfering, just…” Tao Mo wanted to describe it properly, but listened to a cold and sweet male voice to take over for him, “Assist by the side.”
Master Jin saw Gu She and stood up subconsciously.
Old Tao Yi pointedly looked at Tao Mo, “It seems that the young master has reached an agreement with Gu Gongzi.”
Tao Mo bowed his head and smiled. Old Tao’s tone is not good, it can be said that it is a bit bad, but the content of the words makes Tao Mo feel sweet in his heart.
Gu She said indifferently: “Isn’t that what you expected?”
The old pottery was undecided. His expectations clearly differed slightly from what Gu She thought. He really hopes that Gu She can help Tao Mo, but his expectation is very selfish. Frankly speaking, he hopes that Gu She can pay selflessly without any return from Tao Mo. Even if there is a return, it is also some unrelated return, such as Friendship, at least, is not Tao Mo’s mood at the moment.
He suddenly felt powerless. This powerlessness is deeper than watching Tao Mo getting close to the rain. He didn’t care about the rain before. Because he is small, he has no power and no power and can be conquered with money. But Gu She is different, his family status talent and character will only let him conquer others in turn. And he believes that as long as Gu shoots out, Tao Mo will fail without any resistance at all. But what he didn’t understand was what kind of medicine was sold in Gu Shehulu?
Is it a game? Gu Gu’s only afraid of dismissing such a boring and childish game, right?
Tao Mo took the old Tao’s contemplation as embarrassed and whispered: “If it is really embarrassing…”
“Actually, it should be checked.” Lao Tao said suddenly.
Master Jin chewed the buns, looking displeased. I thought that Lao Tao Hui was the only ally on this table. Who knew Gu She had also betrayed after he came out.
Tao Tao said: “Master, rest assured, let me handle this matter.”
Evening wind died in the hands of Huang Guangde, so it is self-evident who left the woodman as the scapegoat. Although he didn’t know the reason for Huang Guangde’s murder, since he was close to Tanyang County, he couldn’t ignore this matter.
Tao Mo frowned: “Are you going alone? It’s too unsafe.”
Old Tao Mo finished the soymilk silently, then raised his hand and slammed the bowl.
The bowl turns into powder under the palm.
Tao Mo, Master Jin: “…”
Gu She surface does not change color.
When Hao Guoguo, Gu Xiaojia and Sang Xiaotu came down, Lao Tao was already out.
The three of them watched the table eating early, and they felt a little uneasy.
Gu Xiaojia whispered: “Son, I’m up late.”
Gu She said: “Eat it.”
Gu Xiaojia was relieved when he saw that he had no blame.
Sang Xiaotu and Hao Guoguo were seated one by one. Ashamed of his conscience, the buttocks were just stained by the stool, and the food was also a small mouth, just like the new wife came to the door.
The atmosphere was temporarily depressed.
Gu Xiaojia was eating and eating, and suddenly a sentence came out, “Where did your son go last night?”
Gu Shedao: “Walk.”
Tao Mo choked and gave Gu She a quick look. Obviously it was a very normal meeting, somehow, Gu Xiaojia was asked in such a majestic way, which gave him a little guilty conscience.
Gu Xiaojia wondered: “But in the middle of the night…” He knew Gu She’s habit and never got up at night.
Gu She raised his eyes.
Gu Xiaojia swallowed the words together with the buns.
Old Tao returned at noon. Tao Mo looked at him in detail, up and down, and he was relieved when he was sure that he was harmless.
Old Tao had no children. He regarded Tao Mo as his own son. He was so relieved to see that he cared about him so much, and he even spoke with a gentle tone. “That woodman has two sons, both owe a gambling debt. The woodman must have been bought by the money.”
Tao Mo heard trembling in his heart, “But, this is selling his life.”
Lao Tao sighed: “The hearts of parents in the world.”
Tao Mo remembered his father, and the hesitant heart was immediately firm, “I want to save him.”
“Isn’t it difficult to use Lao Tao’s skill?” Gu She suddenly said.
