Chapter 27: Request
“Qingfang, don’t try to persuade me. According to you, the Mo siblings are sick, right? When you came from Gu Mansion, Gu Ningxi told you to say these words, then what happened? What did he do?” Tao Xinhe said, after guessing where he was going tonight from the fact that he had not personally followed her to the Tao Manor, but had sent word to the maid instead.
At this time, she sneered, stopping Qingfang from explaining even more details.
Qingfang couldn’t guess how the master and the lady talked when he returned home after agreeing to taking Mo Qiqi as a concubine, but the conversation obviously fell apart.
She hesitated for a moment, and remembered how the lady admonished her after inquiring about the master’s whereabouts before. So she decided not to talk anymore, and swallowed what she wanted to say about what she had seen at the Mo family and bowed her head to answer the lady’s question, “Don’t take it to heart, girl. The master left the house carriage earlier, he took Shishu and Shihua and rode to the Mo family.”
Tao Xinhe stood up, put the stove on the table, and said to her in a hoarse voice, “Sure enough, I linger here, while he will be there to spend the night at her house.”
Feeling a bit uneasy, even if Qingfang didn’t hear what the lady’s words clearly, she still added, “Liu Guang has been staying at the Mo’s house since the afternoon, one of the brothers and sisters of the Mo family is sick and the other is injured, the master won’t do anything It’s just to take care of her.”
Tao Xinhe was already bored, what kind of illness, what kind of injury, who knows the truth? Gu Ningxi didn’t go into details about it, Qingfang didn’t go into details as well, it was probably a minor illness or injury.
In order to make Gu Ningxi feel pity for her, Mo Qiqi really stepped up her game. Maybe it took a long time to plan it, but Tao Xinhe felt ashamed of herself if she really put her heart into it.
The hateful and annoying thing is that Gu Ningxi really took the bait. Concubine? Even if the other party is dying, can she be allowed to be a concubine? A concubine that shouldn’t have been between them?
He was the one who proposed the righteous sister, and he also wants to recognize her as a concubine? And then what? They become closer everytime and eventually become intimate.
The next step for Gu Ningxi is to let himself give up her wife’s position, right? He is far more devoted to Mo Qiqi than to her.
Forget it, how that person behaves had nothing to do with her. Divorce is not an easy decision to make, but it is even more difficult to shake. Tao Xinhe thought, after making concessions to her righteous sister once, it turned out that she stumbled, one cannot be stupid twice, and it is right to withdraw in time.
“Qingfang, there’s no need to say any more. I don’t want to hear a word about the affairs of the Gu family and the Mo family. I feel like my ears are going to get dirty. You can stay with me in peace in the Tao Manor for a while. After the separation is over, let’s make plans.”
Tao Xinhe turned around, walked into the clean room to wash, and wanted to end this chaotic day as soon as possible. Qingfang came over as she said, and served quietly.
❖
The moon and stars are thin, while Gu Ningxi is now in the Mo family courtyard, he sat on the only chair in the Mo house. Shishu was standing behind him.
Sitting beside Mo Qi’s bed, Mo Qiqi looked at her brother in silence. The swollen purple right half of her face was facing Gu Ningxi, making his heart feel like a thousand thorns were piercing it.
Mo Qi was still in a coma. He woke up leisurely this morning, coughed and called “Qiniang”, but there was no answer for a long time, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, he vomited a few mouthfuls of blood in a panic, his chin, neck and the front of his clothes were dyed bright red.
His limbs were weak, and he wanted to turn over and get out of bed but failed several times. He gritted his teeth, covered his head with one hand, rolled and fell to the ground, and was about to crawl out of the room to see his sister.
At this moment, a familiar servant from the Gu family, who seemed to be called “Shishu” or “Shihua”, rushed in, squatted down to help him up, and yelled, asking what’s wrong.
Mo Qi spoke weakly, and asked him to knock on the door of Mo Qiqi’s room to have a look.
The body of a chronically ill person is heavy, and even though Mo Qi is skinny and bony, Shishu still can’t help him up alone, nor can he help him back to bed, so he has to apologize. He tore off the quilt to cover Mo Qi, and told him that he will invite Miss Qiqi to come over together. He then assisted Mo Qi back on the bed.
Mo Qi nodded, thinking that his sister was pitiful. She was a young girl who, after taking care of him for a while, had grown so much strength, and could grit her teeth and hold her breath, to move an adult man by herself. She was so much better than this frizzy boy in front of him.
Unexpectedly, Shishu screamed outside and disappeared.
Mo Qi was even more uneasy, feeling as if he was using all his strength to crawl out. He felt so nauseous while looking coldly at his embarrassing flesh and body.
Until a familiar voice sounded in his ear, “Brother Mo? Brother Mo?” full of concern and surprise.
That’s right, this is the nobleman that was close to their siblings, Gu Ningxi, Gu Sicheng, their righteous brother from the Gu family.
Mo Qi woke up from the coma. He tightly clasped the bones of his hand, and called “Qiniang” repeatedly.
The volume of his voice was extremely low, he only opened his mouth, and it was almost inaudible. Gu Ningxi still understood, nodded in agreement, and slowly pulled out the hand held by Mo Qi, not paying attention to the nail marks left on it.
In the back, there were flakes of skin hidden in the sharp and slender nails of the seriously ill man, and the back of the face blind person’s delicate jade-like hand surfaced several deep blood marks, which no one had bothered to handle.

Leaving behind Shihua and Shishu to watch over Mo Qi, Gu Ningxi took the two maids to visit Mo Qiqi.
Gu Ningxi has been to the Mo’s small courtyard for nearly ten times, and each time he only entered Mo Qi’s room. He never set foot in Mo Qiqi’s boudoir. It was a matter of urgency, so he had to walk to the door of the girl’s room faster.
From the gate of the courtyard to the door, it was all wide open. Shishu reported that this was the scene when he arrived just now. Gu Ningxi frowned slightly, knowing that it was absolutely abnormal.
But what happened? The lady was already bothered about him and Mo Qiqi, so he should consciously avoid suspicion.
He thought to himself that it would be good if the lady was here, and it would be proper and reasonable for women to visit the girl.
Looking back, seeing the two maidservants that he often sees around her, Gu Ningxi hesitated, stood with his hands behind his back, and softly ordered, “You two go in and have a look.”
After they went in they tentatively shouted, “Ms. Mo? Is Ms. Mo there?”
“Ah!” A woman screamed, and the sound dropped strangely.
Gu Ningxi took a step and then stopped. He coughed lightly, and was eager to know what was going on in the room.
He doesn’t know if it’s Qingfang or the servant girl Liu Guang who hurried out, and speaking very fast, “My master, this servant is Liu Guang. Miss Mo is lying on the ground motionless, her face was purple and her clothes were disheveled, and she is not responding, her breathing is normal. She must have passed out. Please Master, tell us how to proceed.”
“Go find the doctor!” Gu Ningxi ordered, and the servants got busy.
He looked hard at the door of Mo Qiqi’s room, and the word ‘clothes are disheveled’ rang in his ears. He stopped his footsteps, and added to the back of an unknown maid, “Help Miss Mo tidy up, it’s also convenient for the doctor while doing a Diagnosis and treatment.”
Later, Dr. Cao, a famous doctor who Gu Ningxi sent paintings to was invited, and he asked puzzledly, “I was entrusted by Gu Sicheng to come to this house for diagnosis and treatment a few days ago. It was for the patient Mo Qi right? The condition is stable, is there any recurrence?”
Gu Ningxi had already known the identity of the visitor after being reminded by the servant, and hastily saluted, thanking Dr. Cao for coming, and asked him to check both brother and sister to consult together this time.
Not long after, Gu Ningxi’s servants and Dr. Cao’s medicine boy went to fetch medicine and boilef it. Dr. Cao explained to Gu Ningxi, “I’m afraid Mo Qi is going to die. It’s very different from my last visit. He is now terminally ill and there’s no way to treat it. He might die anytime soon. I have been a doctor for half my life, and I have never encountered such a case where the pulse condition suddenly changed. I am still not good at learning, please forgive me.”
Gu Ningxi and Dr. Cao were standing inside the courtyard in an empty space talking. After hearing his words, he looked towards Mo Qi’s room window, and whether he could hear their conversation.
Before he could figure out why, he saw that it was raining lightly, and he couldn’t stay outside.
The courtyard is cramped, except for the room of the siblings, there is only one kitchen, and there is no shelter from the rain. Thinking about what Dr. Cao is going to explain next is Mo Qiqi’s physical condition, Mo Qi is extremely concerned, so Gu Ningxi invited the person to come together to Mo Qi’s room, and listen to the details.
Dr. Cao didn’t care about the patient’s thoughts, he just wanted to relay what he had to say, to the two men, Gu Ningxi and Mo Qi.
Mo Qi was shocked when he heard the words, and vomited blood again. Gu Ningxi also felt that it was unexpected, but he was able to calmly ask if the girl was injured and how to take care of it.
After sending Doctor Cao away, Gu Ningxi asked the maids to take care of Mo Qiqi according to the doctor’s instructions, and then turned around to see Mo Qiqi.
Mo Qi beat his chest and struggled, while hissing loudly, “Who did it? I’m going crazy! I’m such a waste. I was ignorant and didn’t protect Qiniang in our own house! My poor sister, I want to see her ”
Gu Ningxi comforted his close friend, saying that Qiniang hadn’t woken up yet, unexpectedly, Mo Qi turned to look at him, after taking a few short breaths, he got the strength to get out of bed, and knelt down to him and Kowtowed!
Gu Ningxi paused for a moment, and for some reason, after being slightly stunned, he quickly supported Mo Qi with his arms, “Brother Mo! The man has gold under his knees, what are you doing?” He forcibly helped the exhausted patient to his upper body, and he was not allowed to worship again.
Mo Qi begged in a sad voice, “Brother Gu, Gu Sicheng, Master Gu. I am dying, and people who are about to die speak well. Can you do me a favor?”
With a jump in his heart, Gu Ningxi understood that Mo Qi heard the words Doctor said earlier. He also had his own guesses about what he wanted to ask for.
He rolled his Adam’s apple a few times, nodded solemnly, and replied: “Brother Mo, don’t worry. My wife and I will take good care of Qiniang.”
Mo Qi heard the words relieved his strength, and his shoulders softened. Shishu and Shihua immediately came forward, and the two of them carried Mo Qi back to the bed together.
Looking at the skinny and unexamined Juren, thinking about how many years younger than he was to him but now he’s dying, with all his ambitions that could not be realized, he felt deeply sad for him.
Mo Qi asked Gu Ningxi, while looking across the back of the servant, “Brother Gu, how will you take care of Qiniang?”
Gu Ningxi stood in front of his bed with his hands behind his back, his eyes were concerned, and he spoke without hesitation, “I will look after her Like a sister. If she wants to marry, my lady knows a lot of people, and we husband and wife will marry her well. If Qiniang wants to live a quiet life, our Gu family can afford a girl.”
“No, Don’t.”
Mo Qi tried to shake his head, and spoke softly, but it was like a heavy hammer, “Can you marry her? No, no, take Qiniang? She has only you in her heart, If it weren’t for you, I’m afraid she wouldn’t be able to think straight.”
