Chapter Twenty-Six: Jin Tan is Dead

In the corridor on the second floor, Fang Zhixu stepped into the room and immediately stopped, turned to look at the person behind him, "What's the matter with you?" ”

Xia Li, who was about to walk into the room, couldn't hold back a little on her face, "Ah Xu, I'm here to bring you dessert." ”

After speaking, he pushed the delicate gift box forward, Fang Zhixu glanced at it with his spare eyes, and said expressionlessly: "I only eat what the chef at home makes." ”

"Ahsu, this ......"

"Don't come into my house without my permission."

Xia Li embarrassedly received the gift box behind her back, "Okay, since you don't like it, I won't give it in the future." ”

Seeing that the door in front of her was about to close, she hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop her, "Ah Xu, Napat's endorsement ......"

"You don't have to worry about it."

Bang!

The heavy wooden door closed in front of my eyes, and the hand holding the gift box trembled faintly.

Even if Fang Zhixu doesn't want to see her now, she doesn't believe that she can't influence him after a long time!

Half an hour later, Gu Mo walked out of his room slowly, and his mind had already thought about the scenarios he might encounter in advance.

However, apart from the dog, all that remained in the living room was the smell of food.

Looking around uncertainly, there was no one.

Fang Zhixu teased his eyes, "What are you doing there?" ”

"Oh."

guessed that Xia Li was probably gone, and she was in a good mood, so she sat down obediently.

This is the first time since the last quarrel that she and Fang Zhixu have spoken face-to-face, and her sober brain once again reminds her to control her emotions!

The butler quickly came up with a casserole.

Gu Mo's eyes widened in an instant, it couldn't be that thing again, right?!

"Madam, this is Fang ......"

"Ahem."

The housekeeper changed his words in time, "The kitchen specially gave you stewed pigeon soup, you can taste it, you didn't like chicken soup before, so you changed it." ”

After speaking, he opened the lid of the casserole, and a strong fragrance entered Gu Mo's nose.

I have been in poor health for the past few days, but when I smell it, it doesn't seem to be poisonous chicken soup, and the gluttonous worms in my stomach boil all of a sudden.

I took a spoon and scooped some soup into my bowl and drank it slowly.

Seems to taste good?

The person sitting opposite was eating slowly and carefully with his head buried, but he kept paying attention to the person's every move.

Gu Mo finished drinking a bowl of five by two, and then picked up the soup spoon to scoop the soup for himself.

Then she saw a small thing lying in the soup spoon, and she had an idea, and put the thing in Fang Zhixu's bowl with a quick idea.

"Mr. Fang, make up for it."

This was followed by another scoop.

Fang Zhixu looked down at a pair of pigeon kidneys and pigeon waists in the bowl, and his expression twitched.

Slowly raised his head, "Is my kidney good, it seems to be ......"

He deliberately dragged out the end note.

"You haven't experienced it yet."

After speaking, he looked at Gu Mo with interest.

Gu Mo's smile froze suddenly, this dog man really dares to say anything!

"Or do you want me to make it up and make the first experience better?"

Gu Mo's face turned red in an instant, she couldn't have imagined that this dog was so thick-skinned!

"I'm sorry, Mr. Fang, I think you are a person with a problem in that regard when I look at your face."

Fang Zhixu was not angered by these words, put down his chopsticks, stretched out his hand, and touched the back of Gu Mo's hand with his fingertips.

"I can't do it, do you want to try it now?"

There was a hint of playfulness in her tone, her eyes were hooking, and the moment her eyes were sent to Gu Mo's eyes, her heart beat like a pound, and she reflexively withdrew her hand.

After his mind cleared up a little, he spoke slightly, "Try?" Okay, you treat yourself as a sample, and when the time comes, I'll return it if I'm not satisfied. ”

A playful smile continued to hang on his face, "I don't have after-sales coverage." There are some things that you don't want to have a second time. ”

Gu Mo laughed mockingly, "So let you replenish your kidneys!" You're too weak, right, only once? ”

After speaking, he looked him up and down with disgust, and finally pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Everyone else is several times a night, tsk tsk......"

Shaking his head, he didn't forget to tell the housekeeper next to him, "Uncle housekeeper, remember to make up more for Mr. Fang, it's not good to be so young, be careful that no one wants it in the future." ”

The butler didn't stand aside, and he shouldn't, so he could only smile awkwardly and politely.

It's better not to get involved in the dispute between the boss and his wife!

Fang Zhixu's face was full of black lines, and he stared at the pigeon kidney in the bowl for a long time.

Gu Mo snickered on the side for a long time, and finally heard Fang Zhixu say tepidly: "Come with me to the old mansion tonight." ”

"No, no."

I didn't want to refuse directly, she had a very average relationship with everyone in the Fang family, and she didn't want to waste time with these ineffective social interactions anyway.

Fang Zhixu glanced up at her, "Are you afraid of losing money?" ”

Money? What loses money?

Gu Mo was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that he seemed to have made a bet with Fang Yuru in the old mansion before this month? Said you want to cure the little red sandalwood? There's been so much going on lately that I've completely forgotten that there's such a thing.

I don't know what happened to the little red sandalwood.

"Just go, how can I lose money!"

"It seems that you are still very confident, so prepare the money first."

"I know."

After drinking the last bowl of soup, Gu Mo touched her round belly and walked to the room, she was actually still a little nervous, 200,000 yuan, how could she have so much money now? People who are so poor shouldn't make impulsive bets!

At five or six o'clock in the evening, Gu Mo put on the dress that Zhixu sent to the room and got into the car.

This time it was a pale green dress, which made her complexion even whiter, which was really a rare aesthetic online.

As soon as I arrived at the old mansion, I heard someone talking in the room, "Brother!!" You're back! ”

Fang Yuru rushed out of the gate of the old mansion, ran directly towards the car in the parking lot, came up and directly grabbed Fang Zhixu and called "sister-in-law" perfunctorily, and then led the person in the direction of the gate.

This is obviously not waiting to see Gu Mo, but she has long been used to it, it doesn't matter, today she originally came for the matter of the red sandalwood.

Entering the room, Chen Xue and the old lady were talking about something, and the two turned their heads to see Fang Zhixu smiling gently, but there was a hint of indescribable feeling when that gaze touched Gu Mo behind him.

"Momo, you're here, I was still telling my mother about the golden sandalwood just now."

Gu Mo suddenly became interested when he mentioned this, "How is it?" Is the red sandalwood cured now? ”

Fang Yuru immediately stepped forward and stood in front of Gu Mo, "Sister-in-law, you are really, I told you a long time ago that I asked someone to buy the golden sandalwood at a high price, you just don't believe it, now it's okay, you have to lose money when the thing dies." ”

As soon as he heard that he had lost money, Gu Mo's heart trembled, impossible, how could he die?

"Dead?"

"Yes!"

The old lady stared at Gu Mo with a cold face, "I was fine a few days ago, I thought I would live, but I didn't expect to die yesterday!" ”

"I knew that I would have invited a garden expert to come, but I only believed your nonsense because I had a brain problem."

The good atmosphere in the room was diluted and became extremely weird, Fang Zhixu stood aside and frowned slightly, but he kept observing Gu Mo's reaction.

Gu Mo used to be a little afraid of the old lady, but if she was scolded like this before, she was already at a loss.

However, the current Gu Mo just stood calmly in place, without a trace of panic on his face.

"Sister-in-law, I'll just say, you can't play this bet, you just didn't listen at the time, and if you don't have that ability, you still don't know how to pretend to understand."

Fang Yuru sneered and gave Chen Xue who was standing in the distance a look, Chen Xue smiled and said in a sticky tone.

"Mom, Momo didn't mean it, she also wanted to share it for you at the time, although this plant is dead but the heart is good, or if you don't say the punishment last time, forget it?"

The old lady's face turned sideways, and her tone was cold, "I hate those who fight for face in front of me the most, they don't measure their own strength, they don't learn anything. ”

"But Mom, the content of the bet last time was too harsh, isn't that okay?"

Chen Xue said comforting words softly, but there was a smile in the corner of her eyes that had succeeded in her tricks. For so many years, she knows the old lady's temper best, and hates those who save face and don't want to take responsibility in the end.

Only by saying this will the old lady's disgust for Gu Mo reach the extreme.

"Harsh? The bet was her own admission! ”

"But ......"

"Okay, don't say anything, you're all adults who have to take responsibility for their own words!"

After speaking, he looked at Gu Mo coldly, and the meaning of wanting Gu Mo to lose money couldn't be more obvious.

Fang Zhixu looked indifferent, sitting on the sofa and drinking tea leisurely, he was too lazy to get involved in the affairs between women, as for the money, as long as Gu Mo opened his mouth, he would naturally give it.

But Gu Mo didn't seem to think so.

"Old lady, can I take a look at the appearance of the plant first, if it is really my wrong method, I will definitely apologize and lose money."

Unexpectedly, Gu Mo didn't say a word, which made the old lady a little surprised.

"Hmph, it's in the corner of the backyard."

Gu Mo ran directly into the courtyard without saying a word, and Fang Yuru, Chen Xue and the old lady also followed towards the courtyard.

"Sister-in-law won't want to save that dead plant, right?"

"Hey, presumably Momo must be sad too, Yuru, don't mention it again."

Fang Yuru pursed her mouth, her eyes were full of schadenfreude, this stupid woman is going to make a fool of herself in the old mansion today!

When he arrived in the yard, Gu Mo walked straight to the corner, picked up the dead plant and sniffed it under his nose, and sure enough, it ......

The plant was tampered with and a large amount of compound fertilizer was added, causing the rhizome to burn out, and even a healthy plant would die, let alone a plant that was still sick.

But now the tricky question is, who did this?

If the old lady did it and wanted her to make a mess, it would be troublesome.

"Sister-in-law, do you see anything?"

"Momo, you are also kind in this matter, if you don't just lose some money, forget it, the old lady is not the kind of unreasonable person."

Fang Yuru and Chen Xue walked towards this side together, singing double reeds, Gu Mo was disgusting to hear, she really deserved to be a mother and daughter.

She thought for only two seconds before she came to the conclusion she wanted.

"I'm sorry, Auntie, I shouldn't pay for this money."
