Chapter 561: Losing to Whom
Although Fan Liangbi still had a smile on his face, the smile was not as calm as before, and he looked a little stiff.
Wei Jiting and the others, who came with Fan Liangbi, glanced at each other and smiled bitterly.
In order to make Fan Liangbi famous among the scholars, they had been preparing for many days, but they were unexpectedly disrupted by a person who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
The scholars are asking the shopkeeper, "Where is this son now, I wonder if I can come out and see him?"
"We are very impressed by this son's literary brilliance and knowledge, I hope to see it!"
The shopkeeper was surrounded by a group of scholars and asked, first bowed, and then calmly replied: "Back to your sons, the guest who wrote the article said that the elders in the family have explained, and he is not allowed to discuss politics with others outside. ”
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other. Hearing this, the elders in the family seem to be very strict?
Many big families with big rules will indeed pressure the children of the clan and prevent them from participating in politics too early, so as not to distract the children from reading and have a weak foundation. For example, the Mu family and the Fan family have such rules for their young children.
But only if these children are still young.
But this article doesn't look like a young person can write it, right?
Someone asked, "How old is this son?"
The shopkeeper replied: "I don't know this little one, but I look younger than all the sons here." ”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
The youngest of the scholars present today is only thirteen years old, could it be that this person is not yet thirteen years old?
Some people wanted to continue to inquire, but the shopkeeper waved his hand and refused to say more.
Fan Liangbi and his entourage's faces became even worse.
It's okay to lose to an older person in a fuss, Fan Liangbi himself is only in his early twenties, but if he loses to a teenager, his face will be a little unsightly.
At this time, in the private room on the second floor, Xiao Mu had just recovered from the shock, and now his face no longer had the previous expression of anger and shame, his eyes were bright, and his cheeks were a little red because of excitement.
"It's my sister, it must have been written by my sister! My sister argued against the people of the Fan family. Little Wood said to the little friends in the house.
Xiaohuzi and Ah Dan are average, and they have no other ideas except that they think that the person who wrote the article is very powerful, and they nodded as if they didn't understand.
Only Chunxiao was as excited as Xiao Mu, and nodded in affirmation, "That's right, it must have been written by my girl! Who else has such a literary style besides her! The one surnamed Fan is not worthy of lifting shoes for my girl!"
The little wood nodded like pounded garlic.
Xiao Mu is full of admiration for his sister, and at the same time, he also realizes the mistake he made today.
He shouldn't have been bent on refuting Fan Liangbi's remarks one by one, which would have fallen behind, he should have learned from his sister to paralyze the other party by disguising his true purpose, and then find out the other party's weakness, give it a fatal attack, and come up with a more clever solution than Fan Liangbi.
Although Xiao Mu lost today, he learned a very valuable experience in fighting the enemy, and he firmly remembered today's lesson, and he almost never lost in arguing with others in his future life.
At this time, the door of the private room was pushed open, and He Linwan and Zhao Qingqing appeared at the door.
As soon as Xiao Mu saw He Linwan, he pounced and hugged her waist tightly.
"Sister, you wrote that article just now, right?" Xiao Mutou's eyes were full of hope.
He Linwan touched his head and said gently, "I wrote it." ”
Xiao Mu breathed a sigh of relief and showed a big smile, but his eyes were a little red.
"I know! How could my sister lose to him!"
He was too excited just now, and after Xiao Mutou finished speaking, he realized that there was still an outsider, Zhao Qingqing, and hurriedly let go of He Linwan, hiding his nervousness with an embarrassed expression.
"This is the owner of the teahouse, you can call Sister Zhao. ”
Xiao Mu hurriedly saluted, "Yang Mu has seen Sister Zhao. ”
Xiaohuzi and Ah Dan also saluted.
Zhao Qingqing smiled, looked at the little wood he had never seen before, and didn't ask more, just quipped: "If you don't leave, the guys won't be able to stop those scholars from coming up to look for people." ”
He Linwan said to Xiao Mu: "You and Adan go to the carriage and wait for me first, and I will come in a while." ”
Xiao Mutou also knew that he was already impulsive today, and his identity could not withstand deep investigation, so he nodded when he heard the words, and motioned for Adan to leave with him first.
Zhao Qingqing turned his head and instructed the maids he brought, "Take them upstairs secretly, and then go down through the secret door on the third floor, so that no one will find out." ”
The maid responded, and left first with Xiao Mu and Ah Dan.
He Linwan waited for them to leave and was not in a hurry to leave, and sat with Zhao Qingqing in the private room for a while.
Zhao Qingqing chatted with He Linwan in a low voice, "If the Fan family knows that the article just now is from you, I'm afraid they will hate you." The reputation that people have been trying to seek is robbed by you at once. ”
He Linwan looked innocent, "I didn't mean to, after all, it's useless for me to come to that reputation." ”
Zhao Qingqing glanced at He Linwan with a smile, and didn't expose her, but just teased: "Fortunately, you are not a man, otherwise wouldn't all the men in this world be mediocre by you like this?"
He Linwan just laughed when he heard this.
When the maid who sent Xiao Mu away came back, He Linwan got up to leave.
Zhao Qingqing personally sent He Lin out in the evening.
When I went downstairs, I saw a man waiting around the corner.
The man raised his eyes and saw He Linwan and Xiaohuzi and couldn't help but be stunned, "Cousin, A-Yin, why are you here?"
He Linwan also looked surprised, "Cousin, what are you doing here?"
Wei Jiting touched his nose when he heard this, a little embarrassed.
The staircase led to the back door of the teahouse, which was usually used by the ladies, who waited here to meet the writer for a while, and he guessed that the man would leave through the back door to avoid people's eyes.
"I, I'm waiting for someone here. ”
Zhao Qingqing covered her lips and smiled, and said clearly, "Gongzi Wei is waiting for the person who wrote the article?"
Wei Jiting was not annoyed when he was exposed, so he simply nodded and said, "Exactly!
He Linwan seemed to remember something, "Ah, is my cousin waiting for the little boy who secretly jumped out of the window on the second floor just now?"
Zhao Qingqing cooperated: "It should be the one." ”
Wei Jiting was surprised and asked, "He jumped out of the window and left?"
He Linwan nodded, and glanced behind Wei Jiting, in addition to Wei Jiting, there were some people who were probing their brains, presumably to block people.
"Probably knew you were waiting for him, so he ran first. ”
Wei Jiting was a little disappointed, and inquired again: "Can my cousin see the person's appearance clearly, is it really a young son?"
He Linwan thought about it for a while, and said uncertainly: "It may not be possible to arrive."
Wei Jiting breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that it was impossible for someone who could write that kind of article
"Judging by the figure, it may also be a young girl, disguised as a man. He Lin said lately.
Wei Jiting was almost choked, it might as well be a little boy.
