She Doesn’t Want the Face-Blind Husband - Chapter 40

Among the people present, the one with the highest seniority and the most respected status is naturally the former prime minister’s wife – Mrs. Gu. It is most appropriate for her to preside over the grandchildren’s reconciliation. However, without saying a word, she just stared at the bloodstains on Gu Ningxi’s face with resentment.

Secondly, it should be regarded as the woman’s biological father—Tao Yuanwailang from the Ministry of Industry. However, he was very special and knew nothing about the procedure of harmony and separation. When asked by Gu’s side, he just said confidently: “My mother deserves better!” It is not realistic to expect him to preside over it.

Both of Gu Ningxi’s parents died, and Tao Xinhe’s mother died young, so she can only choose a general from among the dwarfs next to her.

Tao Cheng is the only son, and Tao Xinhe’s uncles are separated from each other, so only Gu Ningxi’s grandfather and uncles are suitable.

Uncle Gu couldn’t get down because Gu Ningxi asked his face when he worshiped the ancestors in the first month, and he just heard that his nephew was going to reconcile, and he was not prepared at all, so he hesitated.

But seeing Second Uncle Gu being stabbed in the waist by his wife and about to step forward, Third Uncle Gu continued his habit of overpowering his brother-in-law in everything, and stood in the middle of the two sides in a few steps.

Meeting the eyes of more than twenty people in the room, Gu Sanshu swallowed, took the Heli book handed over by his gloomy nephew Gu Ningxi, held it in his hand before opening it, looked around but said with erratic eyes: “Everyone! , It is a pity that the children did not pass by one place. We are here today, to bear witness for their young couple, to read and leave the book, and to make a clear distinction.

When someone came forward, naturally there were many responses in the field, “Yes, yes”, “It’s a pity”, “It’s not a shame to make peace with each other” and so on.

Gu Sanshu pressed his hands, indicating that he still has something to say: “Everyone, I am Gu Ningxi’s third uncle, who is a close relative of Gu Ningxi. Everyone is familiar with him. I am not talented, so I will preside over the ceremony for us to witness the reconciliation. Is it not thoughtful?” place, please mention more.”

Seeing everyone cheering, his voice gradually became louder.

No one objected, Gu Sanshu put on a show, and ordered the housekeeper of the Gu residence to add more lamps and lighten the candles, spread out the Heli book on the table, raised his breath vigorously, and began to read out word by word.

But the more he read it, the more something went wrong. Uncle Gu gradually silenced his voice, and quickly put his face on the paper.

Look, I know every word, but I don’t understand the meaning. This is not a Heli book, it’s like a divorce book! No, no, that’s the wrong word, like… “Hugh’s book”!

Although there is no mention of divorce, there is no problem at all if the male and female names on this certificate are reversed and it is used as a divorce certificate.

Who actually conceived it? Gu Ningxi or Dow? It must be Dow, with a broken heart!

How to heap all the faults on the elders? Gu Ningxi is an official. In the future, he will be promoted step by step, and he will support his own family, Gu Ningran. If this and the content of Li Shu are spread, people will talk about his lack of personal morality, which will damage his official reputation and affect his future. ?

Gu Sanshu was sweating in a hurry, but Gu Ningxi urged in a hoarse voice: “Third Uncle, I haven’t finished reading, cough, cough, cough.”

Gu Ningxi slowly walked out from the other end, and arrived at Gu Sanshu’s side, but his eyes drifted to the lady in the dark corner, and he asked softly, “Is it because my handwriting is not clear?”

“This… this…” Uncle Gu wanted to drag his nephew away, and found a corner where there was no one to tell him about his pros and cons. Heli is not so far away! Documentary evidence can’t be written in this way, Gu Ningxi is blind but has always been good at writing, how can he make such a simple and Lishu, but it is outrageous like this.

Then a crisp, clear female voice sounded: “Is there anything wrong? The Gu family has other considerations?” It was Tao Xinhe who asked the reason for the suspension of witnessing.

Tao Muxian next to her echoed very quickly: “Gu Sicheng! You won’t go back on your word, will you? Is it possible that you are still thinking of dragging my sister down, seeing that you and other women are ambiguous, flirting with each other? Hmph.”

Tao Cheng patted Tao Muxian on the head, and reprimanded softly: “Stinky boy, how can you interrupt?” Turning around, he turned up his voice and said, “Can’t even read Feng and Li? Take it here, and I’ll read it. If you drag it on, the dinner will be cold.”

Uncle Gu turned to look at his mother, and saw that Mrs. Gu couldn’t bear it anymore, so he ordered the maid beside him to bring white gauze wraps, dragged Gu Ningxi to his knees, pressed his grandson’s shoulders to let him squat down, and lifted him up. The face that was originally Ruyu wiped away the blood stains bitterly, wrapped it up, and muttered: “Grandma missed the target when throwing the teacup, why didn’t you hide? How can you be an official if you look so ugly.”

Gu Ningxi was still struggling slightly, and declined: “Grandmother, it’s okay, I don’t hurt, don’t make He Niang… make others wait too long.”

Gu Sanshu was alone and helpless, he had no choice but to shoot, so he gritted his teeth and continued to read.

At the end of the reading, seeing Gu Ningxi list so many properties that Tao would take away, Gu Sanshu was jealous, if his mother hadn’t presided over the branch office after his father died, Gu Ningxi’s property would all belong to the public, the whole mansion Everyone’s, how can they be so unscrupulously distributed to people with foreign surnames.

After reading, there was a long silence in the field. The Heli book was drafted by Gu Ningxi today, and Tao Xinhe, Second Aunt Gu, and Tao Muxian who was rushing to understand the situation had read it before. It was the first time I heard about other characters, such as Gu Sanshu.

Probably, no one expected to hear such a version of Heli Shu, which was unheard of and shocked the world.

Feeling this dullness, Tao Xinhe thought impatiently that it was all Gu Ningxi’s fault for being ingenious. If she used the one she wrote, it would be quite satisfactory and would not cause heated discussions. The witnessing ceremony should be over by now.

Someone whispered into Mrs. Gu’s ear, and while speaking, she stared at Gu Ningxi vigorously.

Gu Ningxi couldn’t feel other people’s scrutiny. Seeing her grandmother let go, she quickly stood up and backed away, thinking seriously, what is the process after reading and leaving the book, is it possible that from now on, he and He Niang will really not be a couple anymore up.

Uncle Gu’s voice was trembling: “Everyone here, have heard the Heli Shu, do you have any objections to the couple’s reconciliation?”

Under the tireless explanations of others, Mrs. Gu finally understood that her grandson’s reconciliation meant a loss of fame and fortune, her eyebrows were wrinkled, and she was about to interrupt the witness, but she felt a mocking gaze inexplicably.

Mrs. Gu narrowed her eyes and looked over, she saw Tao Xinhe sitting in that direction.

Tao Xinhe, who was originally obedient, sweet-mouthed, and well-managed, as a mother-in-law, a second-granddaughter-in-law who was looked down upon by a hundred people.

In the cloudy and dusty atmosphere, Tao Xinhe met the eyes of her grandma who used to be so oppressive, and smiled with the corners of her mouth open, and said hello softly: “Madam Gu.” As for whether the other party heard her, she didn’t care.

Mrs. Gu remembered that a moment ago, her grandson knelt down and kowtowed, begging them to come forward to witness the reconciliation, and she let herself throw the white porcelain teacup in a rage, and did not hide, the broken porcelain splashed, and blood was drawn on his face The child, bleeding profusely, instantly looked horrific, frightening everyone in the room.

Why wasn’t he surprised at the time? In case of hurting Gu Ningxi’s eyes and his face, after a hundred years, when he arrives in the underworld, how can he explain to his grandfather who loves Gu Ningxi the most, and his husband?

That’s why Mrs. Gu was forced to appear here, unwilling to witness the reconciliation instead of divorcing his wife. She still didn’t expect that Gu Ningxi would be so ruthless and harsh to herself.

After this witnessing, the notoriety of him betraying his wife and **** after money will probably spread, not to mention giving real money to Dow without blinking an eye, and the mansion will be evacuated or at least half of it.

In the end, is Gu Ningxi nostalgic for Tao Shi as always, or does she want to get rid of her and start a new love? Mrs. Gu was really confused.

This doubt was actually the thinking of most people present, but their relationship with the young couple was even more estranged, and it had nothing to do with them, so they didn’t plan to question it.

Mrs. Gu is the most qualified to speak out, but when she heard that Tao no longer called her “grandmother” but the polite and distant “Mrs. Gu”, she suddenly realized very clearly that even if her grandson remarries in the future, even if the new wife is more beautiful Beauty is more noble, Tao Xinhe would never treat Gu Ningxi so caringly.

Do you only know how to cherish when you lose it?

Mrs. Gu thought of Tao Xinhe’s respect for three years, and helped Gu Ningxi to be promoted to Sicheng. She seemed to understand her grandson’s mind in an instant. As he said, if she lost or offended Tao Xinhe, she wanted to do what she wanted and let her Satisfied.

I’m old, I don’t care anymore, I can’t care anymore. Madam Gu turned her gaze to Gu Ningxi, whose face was half covered in a white cloth and whose expression was unclear, sighed in her heart, and then remained silent to the end.

There was silence for a while. Uncle Gu was ordered by his wife, and suddenly shouted: “Everyone seems to agree, then congratulations… No, no, it is confirmed that my nephew Gu Ningxi and Tao Shi, the daughter of the Tao family, have reconciled!”

The scene suddenly seemed to be unsealed, and there were voices one after another: “Hey, we are separated”, “Yeah, old brother, we have no relatives at this turning point.” “I hope they will meet each other in the future”…

The aftertaste is lingering, and every sentence everyone discusses is actually a nail in the hat between Gu Ningxi and Tao Xinhe. From then on, in the eyes of the world, in this world, Gu Ningxi and Tao Xinhe have nothing to do with each other. Yes, but it is the relationship between ex-husband and ex-wife.

Even though she knew that nothing would go wrong, Tao Xinhe was still a little worried. Until this moment, seeing the elders of the two parties, who were familiar with each other, walked out shoulder to shoulder, which meant that their witnesses were over, and the separation was officially completed. From now on, she was no longer the Gu family, and only then did she truly feel the joy of the sea and the sky, and the clouds harvesting the rain.

Somehow, taking advantage of the high table covering her chest below her chest, she quietly pressed her cold, warming palm to her lower abdomen.

Through the layers of clothes, she couldn’t feel anything, Tao Xinhe still trembled, closed her eyes, and slowly adjusted her breathing.

Just as Tao Muxian wanted to ask her sister if she should get up and go back home, she saw Gu Ningxi pushing aside the crowd and walking over very slowly, not far or near her sister, without making a sound, just watching quietly.

“Gu Sicheng, what are you looking at? What can you see clearly?” Tao Muxian waited for a while, seeing that his sister didn’t move, and Gu Ningxi didn’t move either. He simply asked provocatively, breaking the delicate balance.

Gu Ningxi shook her head, indicating that she couldn’t see clearly.

Yes, what he saw was still only hazy silhouettes with unclear edges, it was just a ceremony to make him confirm that the person sitting here was He Niang. I really have no eyes, or maybe this word was created for face-blind people.

He whispered softly, as if he was afraid of breaking something, and asked, “He Niang…are you happy?”
