Love is More Than a Word

chapter 3



Tao Mo shook his body, wondering if it was cold.

Some people questioned: “Don’t the officer arrive after a few years? Where did you get it from?”

The buddy said: “The new officer was admitted to the county government yesterday. His housekeeper is also looking for a wife to buy a house today.”

The man was relieved, “It turns out that the painting was obtained this way.”

The old Tao Taolessly led Tao Moxun to an empty table and sat down.

It was during the most lively time of the teahouse that the two of them had a place to lean against the stairs, which was quite close to the shouting man.

Tao Mo couldn’t help but look at it with the probe, but was caught by the old Tao, so he had to accuse him.

The business of the three copper plates was actually patronized.

A voice shouted: “Come on, let my uncle look at it, whether it is fat or thin, tall or short.”

There was a faint sound of unfolding pictures.

“Hah!” The voice laughed, “A sick chicken!”

The buddy said: “I heard that the county official got sick just after entering the county seat, maybe he will not be able to go to the temple.”

The voice said: “It’s good to be daring. The ears are quiet! Everyone in the province must pretend to be tossing. They are not tired, I am too old-fashioned.”

The man said: “Mr. Lu laughed. Which one of your tricks is heavy?”

This flattered man seemed very comfortable, and the man laughed twice and squeezed out of the crowd.

Tao Mo looked sideways. I saw the man’s eyebrows and eyebrows, but he was a handsome scholar.

The scholar seemed to perceive that someone was watching, looking at the trend.

Tao Mo hurriedly turned back.

Lao Tao’s slightly bowed back suddenly straightened.

A fan knocked on the table, the scholar’s laughter was close at hand, “Yo, I didn’t expect the three copper plates not only to see the painting, but also to see the deity.” He said, and said suddenly, “Student Lu Zhenxue met the county master.”

His voice was loud and eye-catching, causing a lot of suspense.

Tao Mo had no choice but to stand up and say, “Don’t be polite.”

The sounds gradually calmed down, and their eyes were fixed on the two.

Tao Mo couldn’t help being embarrassed, not knowing what he wanted to do.

Lu Zhenxue said with a smile: “I wonder if adults mind the same table with me?”

Tao Mo looked at the old pottery.

Old Tao has already stood up. As a servant, naturally it is not suitable to be at the same table with the owner.

Tao Mo said: “Then sit down.”

Lu Zhenxue listened to him reluctantly, snorted coldly, and secretly said: You disdain to be with me at the moment, I’m afraid I won’t be able to invite you in the future!

Tao Modao: “What are you going to eat?”

Lu Zhenxue was a little stunned and said casually: “A pot of dragon wells.”

Tao Mo nodded and said to the guy who was waiting: “Two vegetarian dishes and two bowls of rice, and a pot of Longjing.”

After Lu Zhenxue waited for the buddies to leave, he said: “Isn’t the adult ate?”

Tao Mo shook his head.

“Why don’t you go to Xianweilou instead of Mingcuiju? That Xianweilou is the place to eat seriously. Although Mingcuiju’s tea is good, the dishes are not good.” Lu Zhen learned.

Tao Mo said: “I came for the first time, not familiar.” He saw old Tao still standing, and said, “Sit down together.”

Old Tao said: “Master Xie.” But he never dared to sit all-sided, buttocks only slightly stained the bench.

Lu Zhen learned: “Severe winters are cold and windy, why do adults have to take office years ago? Could it be that they are thinking about those carbon silver?”

Tao Modao: “What is charcoal silver?”

Lu Zhenxue blinked, “Is the adult really ignorant?”

Tao Mo shook his head.

“It seems that adults treat money like dung. They will become a first-class Qing official in the coming day.” He mocked.

Tao Modao: “I don’t want to be an official.”

Lu Zhenxue’s expression stiffened. None of the county officials in Yang County wanted to be an official. Who doesn’t know that Tanyang County is a hard bone, but anyone who has a few ways is reluctant to come. And the court will not send real officials. Ask why? Because there is no need. There are many lawyers in Tanyang County, there are good and bad, but it is not bad in the town of fish and meat, it is not unwilling, can not dare. The literati can speak all over the world, which is really anxious. It is also dare to go to Beijing to report to the court. Therefore, there is no major event in this place in Tanyang County, and the performance evaluation is excellent every year. But like Tao Mo, he said that he wouldn’t be an official when he came up. He encountered it for the first time.

Could it be that he felt the same about him at the first sight?

Lu Zhenxue was stunned, not knowing what kind of demeanor on his body made the other party so obedient.

Tao Mo received: “I want to be a good official.”

Lu Zhenxue put away his surprise and smiled, “A good official is not a clean official?”

Tao Modao: “A good official is a clean official, but a clean official is not necessarily a good official.”

Lu Zhenxue nodded and said yes, but did not have the urge to continue. There are big talks every year, how many do it? To be honest, I dare to tell him that I should be a corrupt official if I am not a clean official, maybe he will look at him with a high glance. This year, too few people dare to act.

It just happened to serve, and the topic ends here.

Lu Zhenxue took a sip of tea and wanted to say goodbye. He has almost touched the base of the new county magistrate. He is a hypocrite in the vernacular, and it is meaningless.

Footsteps came from the stairs.

There is a hurry.

But Lu Zhenxue’s waist straightened up. He looked at the stairs that were only three feet away from his forehead. He felt uncomfortable in his heart, but now he stood up, too deliberately, and had to hold back.

Old Tao saw that his face was different, so he turned around and looked up.

Five or six scholars dressed up walking slowly from above.

As the lobby was quiet again, Tao Mo, who was eating, couldn’t help but see it.

At this point, his eyes stuck to the last man, and he couldn’t move away.

The snow-white fox Qiu, with thick hair like ink, can’t stop the noble spirit of that person even when standing behind people. He seemed to feel his gaze, and his eyes swept faintly, like Han Xing’s laziness, and he moved away lightly, as if disdainful.

“Brother Lu!” The scholar who was at the forefront suddenly stopped and looked at him in surprise. “Since Brother Lu is here, why not come up with a narrative?”

Lu Zhenxue said lukewarmly: “Just going up, but you are down.”

The man smiled and said, “That’s not a coincidence.” He turned his eyes and looked at Tao Mo. “This is…”

Lu Zhen learned: “This one you can’t miss, it’s the master of Xinlai County, Master Tao.”

The man oh, and then stopped paying attention.

Tao Mo was neglected and his cheeks were slightly hot. He wasn’t cold, and he was used to it, but this time he was just before that man…but he probably didn’t care.

He saw that the fox Qiu stood proudly at the top of the stairs, as if everything happening under his feet had nothing to do with him, and there was an unspeakable discomfort in his heart.

Those people laughed away from Lu Zhen’s doctrine and left.

Lao Tao noticed that Lu Zhenxue’s face was obviously gloomy after they left.

“Adult, if it’s okay, the students will leave first.” When meeting this group of people, Lu Zhen lost his interest in learning, and he didn’t even want to persevere.

“Stay on.” Tao Mo was busy.

Lu Zhenxue turned back.

“I have something to ask.”

Lu Zhenxue pretended to wait patiently.

Tao Mo whispered: “You know, what is the name of the young man wearing fox and fur?”

Lu Zhenxue’s face changed slightly, and he looked at him with shyness in confusion, then suddenly, the disgust in his eyes flashed away, and his mouth slowly smirked, “You asked Gu Gu?”

“Gu She?” Tao Mo read it gently, and the man’s appearance appeared in his mind.

Lu Zhen learned: “He is a closed disciple of Mr. Hammer. The adult wants to make friends with him.”

Tao Mo’s eyes brightened and his entire face was vivid, saying, “Do you have a way?”

Lu Zhenxue was unhappy, “I am under Master Lin’s door, and I don’t have a deep relationship with them. I’m afraid I can’t help you.”

The glory in Tao Mo’s eyes dimmed instantly.

Lu Zhenxue was even more unhappy, and left his sleeve.

At this time, the owner of the teahouse carried the man, holding a portrait of Tao Mo in his hand and came to make a guilt, explaining that the painting was only a consignment, and three to seven divided into clouds.

Tao Moben didn’t care too much. When he returned the painting, he agreed not to pursue it.

Old Tao suddenly said: “Where did this son Lu come from?”

The boss said: “The Lu family is a local celebrity, a ancestor from the ancestors, a prince. I heard that there are now two lords who are officials in the capital, which is very remarkable. Lu is a famous talent, and occasionally Be a lawyer. His teacher is the famous Lin Zhengyong.”

He said that old Tao frowned frequently.

Tao Mo asked: “Then, what about Gu She?”

The boss said: “Gu Gongzi is an apprentice of Mr. Hammer, but he never enters the official door. I heard that Mr. Hammer spoiled him very much, and the brothers took care of him very much.”

Tao Mo heard very little news and was a little unhappy.

Lao Tao looked at the boss’s eyes and explored, and quickly checked out, pulling Tao Mo back to the county government office, so as to avoid recurring the incident.
