Chapter 5: The New Official (Part 5) …
”Magistrate Advisor Jin, you are here.” Scholars are good meddling people, and they can"t help themselves from a.s.sociating with him.
Magistrate Advisor Jin"s face was white and his head turned around so much that he couldn"t refute it.
Tao Mo was still waiting for his reply.
Old Tao had to say: “Young Master, even if you are asking for Advisor Jin talents, this sentence is somewhat wrong.”
Something is wrong, it is simply not appropriate to be a.s.sociated with that sentence. Magistrate Advisor Jin only hates that he can"t in the midst of everyone turn to Old Tao and pay attention to him.
Tao Mo felt depressed and said: “Was it not used appropriately?”
“It is not bad.” Under the public, Old Tao could not say the full meaning, he just said, “It"s just a bit too hard.”
Tao Mo said: “What do you mean? Three thousands and I would like to take two scoops to drink, Magistrate Advisor Jin, can you take this first scoop?”
Scoop? Is it still about the scoop?
Magistrate Advisor Jin face was not pale, but blue.
Other scholars were jeering.
”Okay.” Magistrate Advisor Jin"s face changed a bit. Suddenly he smiled and said “Meng De County"s Magistrate was trying to look upon me, and Jin is flattered that you have considered him. Jin is not a man who takes to meaningless to work for the people and this should be down. I am willing to work tireless for the good of the people.”
The former County Magistrate, the latter Master, the change in att.i.tude has shown that he is what he really promised. However, Old Tao felt some uneasiness. He can see that Magistrate Advisor Jin promised but he was biting his teeth. He didn"t really want to work for Tao Mo. It"s just that the matter is here in public and any explanation given to refute will be in vain. He can only take one step and see one step.
Tao Mo saw Magistrate Advisor Jin promised, and he was relieved, and his footsteps immediately turned and walked toward the pavilion.
Old Tao eyebrows inadvertently wrinkled, and he followed suit.
Unfortunately, when Tao Mo arrived, everyone in the pavilion had already dispersed.
Tao Mo was willing to ask others about Gu She: “Just now there were people in the pavilion, how could they all be gone?”
The man said: “Wherever Gu She wants to go, they naturally follow.”
Tao Mo was annoyed. It is reasonable to say that so many people have already left, and they have no reason to stay. It must have been a lot of people, Tao Mo smiled, so he didn"t pay attention.
When Old Tao saw Tao Mo"s frustrated, coughing and he said: “It"s rare for local literati to meet, Young Master you should make more friends, and lay the foundation for establishing a solid strength here.”
Tao Mo province: Yes, he will cross that bridge when he came to it why should he be in a hurry?
Thinking of this he walked obediently to the place where everyone gathered.
Others are also very curious about the new County Magistrate. Seeing him take the initiative to talk, all felt welcomed.
After a while, Old Tao noticed that Magistrate Advisor Jin got up and said goodbye, and immediately took Tao Mo all the way, even with the sedan to his door.
Magistrate Advisor Jin was undecided about Tao Mo"s hospitality. He only said that he will be appointed after the year.
Old Tao saw this, he can only helpless sigh.
Back to the county, Tao Mo hesitantly refused to go down the sedan. “Let"s go visit Mr. Chui.”
”Gu She has another residence, even if you go to see a Mr. Chui, I"m afraid you won"t be able to see him. “Old Tao said.
Tao Mo “sighed” and looked disappointed.
Old Tao looked straight and frowned. “Young Master, you come with me.”
Tao Mo scoffed and felt a bad feeling about this.
Sure enough, when he entered the study door, Old Tao immediately threw a long set of cold and hot words. “Young Master, do you remember what you promised before the grave?”
Tao Mo was pale and he nodded
“Cut Sleeves go against the proper human relations, you cannot going on about things which are bad for you” Old Tao screamed powerful words, and they striken Tao Mo"s heart. “Is it worth it for the Lord to pay for his life?”
1]….. Cut Sleeves=gay
Tao Mo only noticed that the ground was swaying, and then swayed back. When he turned over, his legs lost strength and he fell on the floor.
Old Tao was shocked and quickly pulled him up and said: “Young Master knows why I said this?”
Tao Mo stood up with his soft legs and shook his head said: “I don"t know.”
Just just one brake, his shoulders and legs seem to be overwhelmed.
”Young Master.” Old Tao slightly increased the volume of his voice
”I know.” Tao Mo interrupted him and hurriedly said, “I promised to be a good official. I must be a good official.”
He said it in a bright and fluent tone, he didn"t know if it was what he promised…. he was still reminding himself.
Old Tao saw him pale and looked awkward and couldn"t bear to force it again. “I am also saying this for the good of Young Master. Gu She is not easy to get along at the first sight. If you are making friends with him, I am afraid you will have to suffer big losses.”
Tao Mo corner of the mouth twitched, and he whispered: “I don"t know how. When I see him, my heart jumps.”
When Old Tao thinks of Gu She, and he has to admit that he is indeed fascinatingly handsome. It"s just a man who just looked good and elegant. If he was simple and unsophisticated, he may be able to keep him as a lover or pet in the backyard, but if you look at the popularity of the man, you can forget getting through back in the backyard. He is afraid that even if Tao Mo was delivered to the door, he may not be accepted.
In this way, his heart worries were gone, and he took another heavy medicine, he said: “I think that the person is not partially to other men, and he is definitely not good for Longyang. Young Master"s mind is best. Or Mo wants to teach him so he can know, otherwise I"m afraid… It"s plain and tempting.”
1]….Longyang= h.o.m.os.e.xual way of having intercourse
Tao Mo"s head slumped and his shoulders were loose, and he"s only said: “I know.”
He didn"t want to let that person look down on him, let alone be disgusted with him. It"s just that it"s not so easy.
Old Tao sighed and said: “Let the New Year pa.s.s first, I will tell Huo Guo Zi to cool some new year"s food This is our first New Year in Tanyang Count, how can we not have a lot of fun.”
Tao Mo felt ashamed and embarra.s.sed, he was disheartened and nodded then he went back to the room and slept.
He was still not feeling well and he was depressed in his heart, and he burned a feverish temperature again in the evening.
Huo Guo Zi remembered that the medicine that the doctor had given the last time had not been finished eating, and he made a soup for him.
After drinking, Tao Mo slept in a calm way, and the next day, the burning had retreat, but he had no strength, he was just lying on the bed, he did not want to get up.
Old Tao"s dark regrets were too much yesterday.
After six days, Tao Mo finally got out of bed and was catching up with Lu Zhen Xue.
After Huo Guo Zi and Old Tao joined forces to wrap Tao Mo tightly, he was allowed to see him.
When Lu Zhen Xue saw him, he couldn"t help but say: “Why is the Master losing weight?”
Tao Mo waved his hand and said, “The earth is not satisfied.”
”I know a few doctors with high medical skills in the local area. Can I recommend some for you?”
”Thank you, no.”
”Master is the parent of Tanyang Count. Every move you make is related to Tanyang Count"s livelihood. Please take care of yourself.”
He said all his words, he did not remember the last time he went.
Tao Mo lazily nodded.
”In fact, the students came here to invite Master to partic.i.p.ate in the Meihua Banquet tomorrow night.”
Lu Zhen Xue took the post from his robes cuff and respectfully handed it.
Tao Mo doubtful said: “Meihua Banquet?”
Lu Zhen Xue said: “Tangyang has three treasures, one of which is plum blossoms well. Master has come to Tangyang naturally it has to be be talked about.”
Tao Mo does not want to go to any banquet.
Lu Zhen Xue saw his refusal thoughts and said: “Isn"t the Master wanting to see a certain high-ranking Mr. Chui?”
Tao Mo face moved, he was trying to believe and he couldn"t believe it: “They also go there?”
Lu Zhen Xue smiled and did not answer.
Tao Mo remembered Old Tao"s words before, and he shook his head said: “That still I won"t go.”
Lu Zhen Xue was surprised and he said: “Why?”
Tao Mo said: “I am not ready yet, its good if I still don"t see him for the time being.”
Lu Zhen Xue apparently misunderstood his preparation, and thought in a strange way: I don"t underestimate him. Did he see a high-ranking Mr. Chui in order to stand up to the power, instead of the original thought of sneak peeks and get the relationship? But why did this Master want to target Mr. Chui and still let the let chance to meet the teacher go? Lin Zhen Yong"s reputation and influence in Tanyang is no worse than a Mr. Chui? Could it be that he wants to break through and get him?
When he thought about it, he felt that there was an unfathomable thoughts behind Tao Mo"s laziness, and even the action of the end tea was unpredictable.
”But the students have already spread the news that the Master meaning you will come.” Lu Zhen Xue was feeling awkward. “I thought Master would give face. I don"t want to be pa.s.sionate about myself.”
He said that but for Tao Mo it"s not too close to human feelings. “Then I will go for a while.”
Even if I can"t get close, it"s good to see that person.
Lu Zhen Xue was overjoyed in his heart, and he did not know how to say it on the surface: “So that is the case, then tomorrow"s students will be waiting for Master in the cold house.”
