She Doesn’t Want the Face-Blind Husband - Chapter 39

“This lady is in good health. However, the old man has not felt the pulse. If a woman is pregnant, it will take at least a month for it to show on the pulse.” After carefully examining Tao Xinhe, the doctor came to such a conclusion .

Second Aunt Gu heard from the side, she didn’t know whether to be lucky for He Niang that there was no extra trouble, or feel sorry for Brother Xi, the last chance to keep someone was gone.

Just now, she had some prestige from her elders to force He Niang to feel her pulse, at this moment, she asked the doctor one more question: “Is there something wrong with her stomach and internal organs?”

The doctor shook his head, and said to Second Aunt Gu and Tao Xinhe together: “Madam is somewhat stagnant and angry, it’s not a big deal, you can take two doses of medicine if you want, or you don’t want to. As for the Sanjiao, according to the old man’s pulse diagnosis, Kang Hong is powerful, and he doesn’t even have the spleen-stomach incompatibility that women’s family often suffers from, which shows that his wife is well-preserved.”

Tao Xinhe maintained a gentle smile and thanked the doctor. But I know in my heart, how can I take care of myself? On the seventh day of the lunar new year, I was starved and injured. Fortunately, I didn’t commit the crime again in the past few days. As for the emotional depression, I believe that once she has settled the reconciliation thoroughly, and she no longer needs to be involved with Gu Ningxi, it will naturally dissipate, and there is no need for medicine to calm it down.

After sending the doctor away, Second Aunt Gu handed over the Heli book written by Gu Ningxi with both hands.

Tao Xinhe slandered, this person insists on showing off that he is more knowledgeable?

He Lishu is nothing more than a standard certificate, so how can he write anything fancy?

Could it be that using the version drawn up by the female relatives hurt Gu Sicheng’s reputation as a “learned rich man”?

Opening the seal, pulling out and leaving the book, Tao Xinhe saw the handwriting first, and knew at a glance that Gu Ningxi’s grip on the pen was not strong enough today, and the closing of the pen was quite flawed.

She laughed out loud, and Second Aunt Gu asked, “But what’s wrong?”

Tao Xinhe waved the paper, waved her hand, and said, “Second Aunt, don’t worry, wait for me to read it through.”

After reading the full text carefully, Tao Xinhe withdrew the faint smile that had been hanging on the corners of her mouth all year round, her eyes and eyelashes were lowered, and she pointed delicately at the last “life is not forever”.

The important matter of life and death was randomly written on the Heli book that both parties should keep. Gu Ningxi was really dizzy.

Maybe, He Li’s book will be passed on to the children in the future. Tao Xinhe touched her abdomen with the other hand, but she couldn’t detect the happy pulse at this time, so who knows if she has conceived or not.

It is absurd that such fierce and unclear documentary evidence corresponds to his situation of Gu Ningxi taking a concubine first and marrying another in the future.

“Forget it, Gu Ningxi wrote the book himself, and he is not afraid of regretting reading these words in the future, so leave it to me, so let’s do it like this.” Tao Xinhe thought wearily, turned his head slightly, and stared at Leu Ke thinking.

It was the time for the handover in the afternoon. If the elders of both parties were quickly summoned at this time to be a witness, she and Gu Ningxi would be able to reconcile before dinner.

If we pay attention to etiquette, the two people who are making trouble and leaving need to go to the door of each family with the same surname, explain the situation in detail, and ask for the understanding of relatives, then today will definitely not be able to catch up.

And tomorrow, on the tenth day of the lunar month, the officials will start to go to court to issue seals, father is going, and Gu Ningxi is going too. The time has to be postponed again, do we have to wait until they take a bath on the 15th Lantern Festival before reconciling?

Tao Xinhe didn’t want to procrastinate, she wished she could cut it straight at this time, so she said to Second Aunt Gu, “Second Aunt must know that Gu Sicheng wrote another He Li book, and the words are so sincere that I feel that I am the real one. She’s a vicious woman who dumped her husband.” The words were soft but full of irony.

Seeing that Second Aunt Gu wanted to support Gu Ningxi, Tao Xinhe hurriedly continued, “However, let him do what he wants, and the most important thing is to get it done as soon as possible. Second Aunt, I have a heartfelt request. I want today’s last hour Before that, the matter of reconciliation and separation will be completely completed.”

“Ah, there’s only one more hour left to prepare. Even though Gu Tao’s family is not a large family with a large population, it will take a lot of work, right?” Second Aunt Gu also looked at Kelou, and took stock:

“Brother Xi, my master is free in the mansion, and he is always on call, no problem. But the old lady and the third uncle don’t know about it. The old man hopes that the younger generation will be happy, and I will listen to you soon. Wouldn’t it be uncomfortable to reconcile? How could it be possible to testify today? It’s not something that can be done overnight to persuade the old man.”

Tao Xinhe could only think more carefully. Mrs. Gu really didn’t like herself, but in her opinion, Gu Ningxi could only divorce his wife, and reconciling with her would hurt the face of her grandson. Not to mention, in the Heli book, Gu Ningxi distributed a lot of property and servants of the new Gu mansion to himself. Mrs. Gu is determined not to part with it.

Since Gu Ningxi has written in black and white “willing to be driven”, then let him do it. When relatives, grandparents and grandchildren discuss things, you can’t count yourself as a nasty person, right?

Before Tao Xinhe’s eyes, Mrs. Gu’s attitude of loving to preach to the juniors and insisting on going her own way appeared, and she almost laughed out loud when she thought that she would never have to face it again.

The next moment, she was confident, and said to Aunt Gu: “Aunt Gu, I don’t bother you to persuade Mrs. Gu, as long as you convey my thoughts to Gu Sicheng and let him deal with it. Tell Gu Sicheng, Our branch of the Tao Mansion and relatives are waiting for Gu’s noble side in the middle of the year, and hope that he will accompany the corresponding elders, arrive on time, and fulfill the final dignity.”

Second Aunt Gu showed a look of embarrassment, but looking at her nephew and daughter-in-law who were close in the past, she had a half-smile on her face, and her words were still polite, but there was a hint of non-negotiability, so she had to swallow to buy time for Gu Ningxi to intercede Nuo Nuo responded.

Courtesy and courteously sent Second Aunt Gu out of the house, Tao Xinhe said a few more words: “Qiangniang is at your house, it’s more burdensome, I saw her foot injury yesterday is not a big problem, tomorrow, we will go pick you up.” She is back, thank you Second Aunt.”

“Also, Ning Niang has to meet a good match. I can only be happy for her. My father and younger brother met Cheng Jia recently and praised the young man for his elegance. But Second Aunt, I will arrange the marriage for Ning Niang again. It’s embarrassing, so I’ll say hello to you today, and think about which relatives you will entrust to. After the reconciliation and departure, I will go to the house to hand over. In case there is any need for help in the future, as long as you ask, I will do what I can Yes, I will help too.”

Second Aunt Gu seemed to have realized at this time that her daughter’s marriage had always been dependent on Tao Xinhe, and now it was reasonable for her to withdraw, but who would she ask to take over? There is no other female family member around who can be as meticulous and considerate as He Niang, right?

So, Second Aunt Gu left Tao Mansion with sorrow, went to Xin Gu Mansion, and sent a message to Gu Ningxi.

**

“You Shizhong? Cough, I understand, thank you Second Aunt. Time is running out, so I will entrust Second Uncle’s place to Second Aunt.”

After Gu Ningxi handed over the Heli book, she felt her mind and soul dissipated, as if the sky and the earth were in the same darkness.

He locked himself in the study room, and kept silently writing articles and scriptures, one after another, covering the desk and floating on the ground.

Until his right arm was so weak that he couldn’t lift it anymore, the brush in his hand fell, and he sat back on the chair slumped, covering his face with his palm, without moving any more, like a lifeless, decayed and dilapidated statue.

Second Aunt Gu came to the door and woke him up. Hearing He Niang’s order, Gu Ningxi seemed to have found a backbone, braced herself up, ordered the horses and horses to go to Lao Gu’s mansion immediately, and begged her grandmother and third uncle to come forward.

Sure enough, Mrs. Gu was furious when she heard about it. Although she was not as filial and flattering as Gu Ningran who was by her side every day, Gu Ningxi was her proudest grandson, and she was going to be divorced? No way, Tao is not virtuous, he won’t allow her husband to take a concubine, and she will bear the infamy of “envy” all the time, so she can only divorce his wife and let Tao leave the house!

The main room of the old Gu mansion, the old lady Gu, the third uncle Gu, and the third aunt Gu were all there, and there was a room full of servants. Everyone was surprised. Although only the old lady’s voice was echoing, no one was holding back a few words. What about a sigh?

Gu Ningxi glanced at the sky outside the window, the sun had already set in the west, and it was perfunctorily reflecting the world, it was so red that it was getting weak, it was getting late! He Niang couldn’t wait, would she be even more angry if she thought she was delaying the reconciliation?

He was even more flustered in his heart, and couldn’t think of a better way for a while. He lifted his robe and knelt down on his knees, and kowtowed heavily to Mrs. Gu, half begging and half threatening: “Please help me, grandma! My grandson has no father or mother.” If you can’t reconcile today, you will be even more ashamed of the Tao family. My grandson is too guilty, and I would rather ask myself to come from the Gu family and be a self-made man, and I don’t care about being filial or fraternal.”

Mrs. Gu’s eyes widened, and a teacup was thrown at her: “The Tao family wants you to reconcile today, and you will do everything you can, even threatening grandma to leave the clan? Since you listen to her so much, why do you still want to reconcile? No Like being a pug at her skirt?”

“Because I was confused, I made the mistake of taking a concubine, which hurt her deeply. She doesn’t even want to be called by my boudoir name, and she and Li Shu are given off again and again. All I can do is make it happen.” Gu Ningxi murmured, The more I say it, the more ridiculous I feel.

**

At the middle of the unitary hour, Gu Ningxi and Tao Xinhe’s reconciliation and separation were witnessed in the ancestral hall of the new Gu Mansion, which was rarely opened in the ancestral hall of the new Gu Mansion.

Now that the golden sky is falling to the west, the afterglow of the setting sun and the lights of the candles complement each other. In the purposely high, cold and empty ancestral hall, the figures are drawn into long lines, and the faces are even more blurred. Even if Tao Xinhe sweeps over, he can only roughly see the figures Facial features, no details.

Maybe, it’s like the world in Gu Ningxi’s eyes?

The Gu Ningxi in Tao Xinhe’s impression is not only the appearance of Fengshen, handsome, and Gu Pansheng before, but also the embarrassing appearance of being muddy and lost at noon on the seventh day of the new year. The last time I saw him was yesterday morning, when he fainted and looked pitifully on the ground.

At this moment, the two were surrounded by relatives of their own clan, and they were far away from each other. Tao Xinhe glanced casually, and still noticed that there was a long bloodstain on Gu Ningxi’s face, from the end of the right eyebrow down the cheekbone, into the Behind the right earlobe, the residual blood was still there, and the scars seemed to be very eye-catching, as if everyone around him were concerned about him.

“Sister, did you see brother-in-law… No, did Gu Sicheng get hurt on his face? How did it happen?” Tao Muxian was present as the only male of this generation in the Tao Mansion, but he couldn’t speak like an elder. However, he couldn’t stay idle, he leaned into Tao Xinhe’s ear and asked while the people on both sides were exchanging greetings.

Tao Xinhe saw clearly who was in the Gu family, so she coldly looked away from Gu Ningxi and his surroundings, and sat upright, as if she didn’t know which side was constantly casting prying eyes.

She squeezed out a voice through her teeth to respond to her younger brother: “It doesn’t matter how he flaunts, as long as it doesn’t affect Heli, let him go. You sit back in your seat.”

Gu Ningxi was one of the members who cast her eyes on Tao Xinhe. Her place was farther away from the window, and the light was weaker. It was just a faint dark figure sitting in a sitting position. She couldn’t even make out tonight’s hairstyle, but it probably wasn’t a bun. .

Regardless of the stinging wound on her face, Gu Ningxi kept standing on the table, looking in the direction of the lady, until she was reminded: “Let’s start reading and leaving the book now?” Only then did she realize what the occasion was.

The author has something to say:

It’s the last day of the Year of the Ox. I wish you all a happy New Year’s Eve dinner!

Tomorrow, the first day of the Year of the Tiger, to celebrate the watch, double shifts will be presented, at 0:10 and at 12:10 noon.
