"We're not short of this little money." Lu Zhen said coldly, he still didn't want to get involved with the Bai family, if possible, he even wanted to keep a distance from the Shen family.These big families are not fuel-efficient lamps. After establishing a relationship, it will not be so easy to get rid of them in the future.

Gu Daoxin took a deep breath, "It's not bad, but it's not bad if it can be saved, the amount is also quite considerable, isn't it? With so much money, we can do a lot of things. After the four banquets of the imperial examination, we held small The banquet is indispensable, and it will definitely cost a lot. And I also plan to open the dessert shop after the competition. At that time, I don’t want to rely on the help of the Shen family, and I will make the shop and prepare the materials by myself, and I also need to open up interpersonal relationships, which will also be an expense."

Hearing that Gu Daoxin said that he didn't want to rely on Shen's family anymore for opening a dessert shop, Lu Zhen's expression also eased, "Okay, I'll help you."

Gu Daoxin tilted his head and smiled, "Needless to say? We are good brothers. If you don't help me, who will help me? If there is anything you can use me for, I will definitely do my best to help you, right?"

Lu Zhen frowned, feeling something was wrong, but he also felt that there was nothing wrong with Gu Daoxin's words, so he nodded silently.

Three days later, the competition was held at the manor on the outskirts of the Bai family.

In addition to Bai Duanrui and Bai Zhi, there are three people from the Bai family who participated in the competition and one guard. The brothers and sisters of the Bai family just watched.

It stands to reason that for such a big matter, the Bai family should have an elder. Since there is no one, it can only show that Bai Duanrui has enough power to speak in the Bai family. Except for the old man of the Bai family, his words must be absolutely obeyed The command.

Apart from him and Yunbao Yuebao, Gu Daoxin has only one little maid on his side.The servant girl is getting along very well with Yuebao now, and at the same time, she knows how to measure, she knows what she should know, and she knows how to avoid taboos when she shouldn't know.In this regard, Gu Daoxin was very satisfied.

Bai Zhi walked over proudly, looking at Gu Daoxin and the others, she was already imagining what would happen to them after they failed, she couldn't help being in a good mood, and her eyes were full of complacency.

"How is it? Now you know how powerful I am? Telling you to bully me back then, as I said, you will regret it!"

Yuebao is young, but she is very sensible. She knows that her elder brother and second elder brother don't bother to argue with this woman, and she doesn't want the two elder brothers to be disadvantaged in words, so she said with a smile: "How much does Miss Bai have?" I’m sorry we didn’t see the difference, but we have experienced the ability to sue. But it’s okay, thanks to Miss Bai’s complaint to Mr. Bai, we have the opportunity to discuss this time. I’m here to thank Miss Bai for the raw materials in advance gone."

Yue Bao gave a slight blessing, and what she said was remarkable, she was more than polite and did not lose her momentum, but she didn't know how much stronger than Bai Zhi's chaotic provocation before.Comparing the two, Yue Bao is more like a well-bred lady, while Bai Zhi is like a shrew in the market.

It should be said that Bai Zhi is also very good at hiding her true face, and she does a good job of disguise on weekdays, but when she wanted to intervene in the competition the day before yesterday, when she did some tricks, she was reprimanded by her brother and exposed her true face, and Gu Daoxin and the others... Having torn face with himself, there is no need to pretend anymore.

Being ridiculed by such a lesson, Bai Zhi was furious, and just about to choke to refute, she was sternly reprimanded by Bai Duanrui, telling her to stay in the stands, what does the dignified Miss Bai family look like like this!

Even if Bai Zhi got angry again, she didn't dare to disobey Bai Duanrui's words, she gave Gu Daoxin and others a vicious look, and then went to sit on the stage.

This place was originally an arena in the manor. The Bai family holds jade appraisal and jewelry making competitions every year. The participants are all craftsmen or stewards who work in various jewelry shops and jade shops of the Bai family.To put it bluntly, they are all long-term workers of the Bai family.

Those who win the competition can get quite generous rewards, and the stewards of the winning stores can get extra dividends in the coming year.Therefore, the annual competition is very popular, because there are many participants and many competition items, the requirements for the comparison test venue are relatively high, and this place is specially established for this kind of competition.

Bai Duanrui apologized to Gu Daoxin, "Sister She was rude. There is only such a girl in the family, so she is spoiled. I apologize for my sister."

Gu Daoxin smiled, turned around and walked towards the stands, and said, "No need, I won't take it to heart if the girl makes a slip of the tongue."

The guard following Bai Duanrui was full of displeasure. He frowned and took a step forward, and said in a low voice: "Master, this man is too ungrateful. Do you want your subordinates to teach him a lesson?"

Bai Duanrui was staring at Gu Daoxin's back, with admiration in his eyes. When he heard what his subordinate said, he immediately frowned, turned his face and said coldly, "You have been with me for a while, if you are still so silent If you can't hold your breath, you will stay in the house as a nursing home from now on, and you don't have to follow when you go out."

The guard quickly bowed and took two steps back.He originally thought that he would talk about the young master's heart. In the past, some people dared to disrespect the young master like this, or did not give the young master face. The young master changed his old style.

Rainbow Dash sat between Gu Daoxin and Lu Zhen, and after she was seated, Rainbow Dash leaned towards Gu Daoxin.Gu Daoxin bent down skillfully so that Rainbow Dash could whisper in his ear.

"I just saw that Mr. Bai has been looking at the second brother, and his eyes don't look like seeing a competitor."

Hearing Rainbow Dash's very serious tone, Gu Daoxin held back his laughter, "Then Rainbow Dash, tell me, what does that look look like?"

"Like... like looking at someone you like."

"The person you like?" Gu Dao couldn't help it now, and looked at Yun Bao with a funny face, "Do you know what a person you like is?"

"I know! It's the right person!" Rainbow Dash shook his head, and said crisply, "Second Brother, still remember when there were activities in our town, there were many young people participating every time?"

"Remember, so what?"

"Those people are just blind dates in disguise in the name of activities. When they find someone they like, they start flirting, and when they flirt, they start dating. I see it for real every time."

Gu Daoxin: ...

He really regrets now that he took Rainbow and Moon to see any event in town.

Originally, at the beginning, the two children were too introverted to speak, thinking that seeing more people might make them speak better.Afterwards, Rainbow Dash developed a hobby of participating in various activities, and later, as long as there are activities, including guessing lantern riddles, listening to singing songs, temple fairs... Anyway, it is those that many people will participate in, regardless of whether Rainbow Dash will Whether you don't know it or don't understand it, if conditions permit, you want to go and see it, which is commonly known as like to join in the fun.

It is not easy for Gu Daoxin to make an introverted or even psychologically shadowed child like to join in the fun so much.

"Then you say that Bai Duanrui looks at me like looking at me, what is the relationship between the two?"

"Yes, I've seen that kind of eye contact too much, so I can see that Bai Duanrui is interested in the second elder brother at once."

Gu Daoxin shook his head, "Impossible, it's not bad if he doesn't regard me as an enemy."

Yun Bao wanted to refute, but couldn't think of the most suitable description for a while, so she turned to ask Yue Bao who was on the other side of Gu Daoxin, "Sister, what is the situation we mentioned before when two enemies fell in love with each other? ? I can't remember."

Moon Treasure is about to play in the first match, and he is still nervous, he is busy using the ancient Taoist method to adjust his mood, after hearing Yun Treasure's question, he didn't think too much about why his younger brother suddenly asked such a question, so he gave the answer directly - "Love each other and kill each other".

"That's right, that's right, love and kill each other," Rainbow Dash turned back to look at Gu Daoxin excitedly, "That's exactly what I said."

Gu Daoxin supported his forehead and smiled, "In the future, you two should read less of those messy scripts. If you don't have any books, come to me and I'll recommend them to you."

It was only at this time that Yue Bao realized why her younger brother asked her just now, and subconsciously looked at Lu Zhen, and she saw her brother's expression was unhappy.

"Rainbow, don't use that word indiscriminately!"

Rainbow Dash panicked, "I, I was wrong."

Moon Treasure has always loved Rainbow Dash very much, but she also knows that sometimes she has to be strict as a big sister.

"Do you know what's wrong with you?"

Rainbow Dash nodded with her lips curled.

Yue Bao stroked the back of Yun Bao's neck like a kitten, "Brother didn't fall in love with the young master of the Bai family, at most it was a little business cooperation. Remember it in the future, you can't say this kind of thing again."

Lu Zhen looked at Yue Bao, thinking that the little girl had really grown up and was very sensible.

Bai Duanrui talked about the scene, and then Gu Daoxin talked about the rules of the competition, and then the first round of competition began.

The content of the first round of competition is that the two sides use local materials, and then make a simple step shake, and the competition time is one hour.

There is a circle of gold, silver and jade under the audience stage, and many of them are polished and have various shapes, which are close to semi-finished products, so there is a time limit of one hour. Otherwise, it is really necessary to make a piece of jewelry from raw materials. Half a day may not be enough, and more exquisite products need to spend several days or even ten days.

Using semi-finished products as raw materials will reduce Bu Yao's creativity, but this competition mainly tests the proficiency in making pearls, hairpins and jade rings, so doing so can best achieve the ultimate goal.

The one who came out of the Bai family was an old master whose craftsmanship was passed down from his ancestors, and he has been working for the Bai family since the last few generations.Today, there are people in their 40s and almost 50 years old, and their sons and grandchildren are learning from him.

When the master saw that his opponent was a little girl, his face immediately became a little ugly.

I've wanted to do this for so long, and it's not like I haven't competed with others, but it's the first time I've become an opponent with a little girl.
