After the banquet, Gu Shubo winked at Gushubo, Gushubo nodded knowingly, and wanted to talk to the Bai family and the Shen family about cooperation.But apart from quietly listening to the old lady's speech at the beginning of the meeting, they were all chatting with each other, and never gave Gu Shubo a chance to speak.

Although Gu Shubo is an elder, he is far inferior to the Bai family and the Shen family in terms of business means and experience.Sitting here is to give face to the Gu family, but he still has to earn his own face.

The original seating arrangement was that Gu Shubo sat between Shen Zhaoyun and Bai Duanrui, and then Gu Xincheng and Gu Xinyi sat on the other side of the two. Sitting directly on the left and right sides of Gu Daoxin.

Gu Shubo wanted to ask the two to change to their original seats, but Bai Duanrui smiled and said that this place is very good, and he can talk to Gu Daoxin.

Shen Zhaoyun's mouth has never been idle, and has been chatting with Gu Daoxin, not asking how Yunbao and Yuebao are doing, asking when Brother Xianzhang will come back, and asking when Gu Daoxin will have time to hang out together Play.It is rare for Young Master Shen to be quiet.

Gu Daoxin was quite at ease, and Shen Zhaoyun answered every question he asked without saying much, and he was neither impatient nor impetuous. This temperament seemed to be rare among children of the same age.

And Bai Duanrui has been chatting with Wei Changqing. The Miss Wei family he is going to marry is Wei Changqing's younger sister, and Wei Changqing is his uncle. There is no intersection in business on weekdays. Although the two families move around frequently now, because Wei Changqing is often outside I'm busy with business, so I don't see them many times. We will see each other this time. Of course, both parties want to have a good chat.

Gu Shubo felt very ashamed, he was already staring at Shen Zhaoyun and Bai Duanrui when they were silent and opened his mouth, but as soon as he spoke, usually just uttered a word, they immediately started talking.This feeling seemed to be intentional, deliberately not giving him a chance to speak.

Even if his business is not as good as Shen's and Bai's now, he is an elder after all, and he feels very disrespected when he is treated like this.

But Gu Shubo still didn't dare to trouble the two of them directly, so in order to save face and attract Huatou, he could only use Gu Dao's heart.

But after all, he is Gu Daoxin's second uncle, and his words and deeds also represent the Gu family, so it's not good to directly trouble Gu Daoxin, outsiders will say that he bullies the small with the big.

So Gu Shubo thought of another way.As an elder, it's hard for him to say anything, but the conflict between his peers is also a family, so it's hard for outsiders to say anything.

"My second uncle is also very pleased that Dao Xin can make friends like Mr. Shen so quickly. Xincheng, you should learn more from your cousin. To teach friends, you must teach Mr. Shen. You usually Those cronies in the movie know that taking you out to fool around will not help you. In the future, spend more time with your cousin and let him introduce you to people you should know."

The old lady often said such things about Gu Xincheng, and when Gu Shuyuan came back, he couldn't talk without these contents.Gu Xincheng's ears became callused, and his skin became thicker and thicker, so he didn't care at all.

But today's occasion is different, Gu Shubo said this in front of so many people, Gu Xincheng felt like he was slapped in public.

But what Gu Xincheng resented was not Gu Shubo, it was Gu Daoxin that he held grudges against.

If it wasn't for Gu Daoxin, he wouldn't be said that. It's all because of this bastard that he made a fool of himself in public!

"Second Uncle's words are wrong. My cousin is now acquainted with the sons of the Shen family and the Bai family, but this cannot offset the absurd things he has done. If I really learn from him, it will be shameful to the Gu family!"

Gu Xincheng's voice was very loud, as if wishing that the whole flower hall could hear it.

Originally, most of the people present here were people of some social status, even if they were talking and chatting, they would not make a lot of noise, so the whole flower hall was not noisy. When Gu Xincheng's voice came out, almost everyone immediately looked over here.

This is something to watch!

When everyone received the invitation before, those imaginative people couldn't help imagining the grievances and grievances of a wealthy mansion. The family is not happy with this lost "blood".Especially with an identity like Gu Xincheng, one more child of the Gu family will give away an extra share of property in the future.

Anyone with a clear mind can understand the intention of the Gu family's move. It is just because Gu Daoxin's Yaoguang Pavilion and Jindianzhai are booming in business, and they are likely to continue to grow, and Gu Daoxin is closely related to the Shen family and the Bai family. The relationship between them is good, and I guess I also want to use the bridge of Gu Daoxin to board the boat of the Bai family and the Shen family.

It's just that they are also very curious at this time, what exactly is what Gu Xincheng said that will shame the Gu family.

Everyone subconsciously looked at Gu Daoxin, only to see that Gu Daoxin looked calm, and he didn't take Gu Xincheng's stern accusations at all.Such a calm posture reveals a faint contempt, compared with Gu Xincheng's mad dog-like biting, it is obvious.

Gu Xincheng's anger rose gradually, and before Gu Daoxin said anything, he was about to be blown up.So he didn't care about the old lady whose face was already darkened, and said pretendingly: "You don't have to pretend to be so noble. A really noble person will do the thing of buying a supervisor? I don't have the ability to take the exam, so why not?" How can you be proud of yourself if you want to gain fame and do such a thing that makes the world's scholars look down on you? You are also thick-skinned, and you don't know who you are losing if you rush to the capital to catch the exam like this!"

Many of the younger generation present here have participated in Qiu Wei, and naturally they have also won the fame of scholars before.

They originally had a good impression of Gu Daoxin, calm and gentle, capable but not arrogant, but when they heard that he was a donated prison student, their eyes suddenly changed, and they were more or less contemptuous.

In the eyes of most students, only those who have no real talent and knowledge and are greedy for fame and fortune will buy supervisors.But whoever has some real skills, who wouldn't take the exam by himself?

Although the prison students have to spend money to donate, but the real rich people in the big family are the last to do this kind of thing, because it is too embarrassing, and it would be too embarrassing to say it.

Shen Zhaoyun took a cold look at Gu Xincheng, "I don't agree with what Young Master Gu said. It's true that Daoxin donated the prison students, but at the beginning it was delayed because of Daoxin's business. This is the only way to do this. Why not?"

Seeing that everyone's eyes on Gu Daoxin were no longer as appreciative as before, Gu Xincheng was very proud, and didn't care about Shen Zhaoyun's choking, and opened his mouth to retort: ​​"Mr. Shen has only known him for a long time. Is the delay really a delay? Who knows if it's because you have no knowledge at all, knowing that you can't pass the provincial examination, that's why?"

Bai Duanrui also stopped chatting with Wei Changqing. He couldn't hear Gu Xincheng say: "I have known Brother Daoxin for a long time, and I am very clear about Brother Daoxin's personality and knowledge. Although Young Master Gu was lucky enough to Passed the local examination to be a scholar, but he was also the last one. Even Master Gu was on the list. I believe that brother Yi Dao Xin's talent is not to mention. I don't deny that many supervising students do not have real knowledge, but Dao Xin Brother is not like that. If there is any controversy, we will find out when the results are released. But Master Gu, brother Daoxin is also considered your cousin. We outsiders have confidence in him, why is Master Gu like this? Are you slandering Dao Xin fiercely? Is it because you are afraid that Dao Xin will do better than you in the exam, or is it because you are afraid that if this ancient mansion is divided in the future, Dao Xin will share part of the property?"

In the past, Bai Duanrui had always been good at dancing with long sleeves, and it was the first time that he spoke so ruthlessly, but Shen Zhaoyun clapped his hands.

The two of them originally didn't deal with each other when they met, because of the complicated relationship between their ancestors, and also because of their personality differences. Shen Zhaoyun didn't like to see Bai Duanrui's character of "scheming people" as his hobby.

But today Bai Duanrui's words, but every sentence has been said in his heart, it's so cool!

The smell of gunpowder on the dinner table was very strong. Although Gu Xincheng was said to be very angry, he was not prepared to let it go. It was a rare time for him to regain face in front of Gu Daoxin. He was about to say a few harsh words when he came in outside A family member passed on the news that the master of Futai had arrived.

As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately stood up and greeted Mr. Futai.

Although in Lanling, the four big families are really famous, but as the saying goes, people don't fight with officials, no matter how powerful they are, they can't be too big in front of Futai adults.

The old lady narrowed her eyes with a smile.When sending out the invitation before, she didn't expect that Mr. Futai would come.

Master Futai never favored any of the four families, even if there was an official in their Gu family, he did not receive special care from Futai because of this.Usually, when the four families have some happy event and want to entertain guests, it is just a process to invite the adults of Futai to show respect, and it is normal for the adults not to come.

But today the Master Futai is here, that is to give face to the Gu family.

"My lord can come to the house today, the old lady is flattered!"

Mr. Futai is over 40 years old, with a little beard, a big belly, and a kind smile with majesty.

"You don't need to be like this, old madam. I was busy with work, and I thought I would be late, but I didn't expect to be able to finish it. Come here now. Ah, where is Mr. Gu?"

Hearing this, Gu Xincheng immediately got up and walked to Master Futai, smiling like a dog, "Master, are you looking for me?"

Master Futai shook his head, "It's not you, it's the one the Gu family found from outside, Gu Daoxin."

"Here it is!" The old lady was afraid that Gu Xincheng would annoy the lord without seriousness, so she hurriedly asked Gu Shubo to pull Gu Xincheng back, and then pushed Gu Daoxin out, "Here, this is us The child I just found. Dao Xin, hurry up, I have met Mr. Futai."

Gu Daoxin bowed his hands with a smile on his face, calm and solemn, "Gu Daoxin has met Mr. Futai."
