As soon as he said this, he immediately attracted the approving glances of most of the students in the library, and they looked at Jin Siye with disdain almost in unison.

As the saying goes, everything is inferior, but reading is high.

These students have always been above the top, thinking that they will be the pride of the sky who wants the title of the gold list in the future, and when they see people like Jin Siye, they feel that he is just a bully lackey, and he does some ninth-rate business, so he naturally doesn't look down on it very much.

And when the shopkeeper in the library heard this, his heart was secretly happy.

This Jin Si is a member of the Jiang family, but the Hongyuan Bookstore is from the Hong family, and the relationship between the two families is a mortal rival.

So, as if he hadn't heard, he pretended to stand in front of a row of bookshelves, wiping the dust that didn't exist on his head with his sleeve.

I don't know how many times Jin Siye has heard such words.

But he didn't care, and what these people said was right, that is, he couldn't be as knowledgeable as these people, so as not to cause trouble to the owner.

But when Gu Xian heard this, he felt resentful in his heart.

In his opinion, talking like this is insulting to himself.

Studying to be an official is to ask for the people's life, that is, no matter what kind of person they are, they are all the same, if they want to divide the people into three, six, nine, etc., this book is really in vain.

However, before he could open his mouth to refute it first, he saw his little sister walk straight up to the student who was talking, and asked crisply: "This Langjun, what does it mean to be a ninth-rate?" ”

The student was stunned when he heard this.

He followed the sound and looked over, and saw a young lady who came to him at some point.

Her pretty little face Yuxue is cute, at this time a pair of dark apricot eyes, full of clear and pure looking at herself, such a meticulous gaze, and slightly tilted her head, indescribably innocent, it seems that she is really puzzled by this question.

"Ahem!"

It is rare to see such a good-looking little lady, this student immediately cleared his throat, and said, "As the saying goes, first-class witches, second-rate prostitutes, third-rate gods and fourth-rate bangs, five shaved heads and six blowers, seven operas and eight streets, nine selling sugar, like these trades, are all called ninth-rate, of course, there are only these."

"There are also masters, yacha, matchmakers, pawns, thieves and thieves, all of whom are ninth-rate trades."

As he spoke, he seemed to be afraid that Gu Baoying would not understand, so he raised his hand and unceremoniously nodded to Jin Siye, "It's like this person who holds tea and sits on the table, who in the county town doesn't know, he is also a slave who runs a tooth shop, and he also runs a gambling house and a Goolan courtyard, which can be described as a ninth-rate." ”

After he finished speaking, he raised his chin slightly, and there was a trace of pride on his face, as if he was still waiting to be praised by this over-good-looking little lady with adoring eyes, "You know a lot!" ”

After Gu Baoying listened, there was only a noncommittal chuckle in her clear eyes.

Her laughter was as beautiful as a silver bell, the red and glamorous little mouth was pulled, the shallow pear vortices on both sides appeared, and a pair of apricot eyes flowed out of a touch of autumn water-like waves, which made people lose their minds for a moment.

However, listening to the faintness in her mouth, she said categorically: "What is the ninth rate? I see you and they are all the same. ”

This unceremonious comment was like a basin of cold water, and in an instant, the stunned student was poured into his heart.

"You, what did you say?" When the student came back to his senses, he looked at the delicate and lovely little lady in front of him in disbelief.

She actually treated him and these ninth-rate people "equally"?

He was immediately annoyed and angry, and immediately reprimanded: "I read the books of sages and sages, and I learned the way of governing the country through the world, and you actually say that I am the same as these ninth-rate people? ”

"What's the difference? Don't eat all the grain rice? Don't you have to go in and out of the room? Gu Baoying still tilted her head, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and she looked at him with a smile on the corner of her lips, her innocent appearance made people think that she was just ignorant, so she would say this.

"Little sister, it's wrong for you to say this, people are divided into three, six, nine and so on, this status is not judged like this......" The student looked at the delicate little face of the little lady in front of him, and the ugly words went around his mouth, but he couldn't say anything, so he made a tolerant and generous look, and wanted to preach to her.

However, as soon as Gu Baoying raised her hand and pointed at Jin Siye, she interrupted the student's words with a smile.

I only heard her say: "I only know that people's status and face are earned by themselves, if you really have a higher status than Jin Siye, and your face is bigger than him, why doesn't this shopkeeper take a seat and serve tea for you, but just treat Siye like this?" Doesn't this mean that in the eyes of the shopkeeper, you are not as good as the fourth master in terms of status and face? ”

When the student heard this, he immediately choked.

His eyes widened, and he couldn't answer for a moment.

It's not that he doesn't have an answer in his heart, but when the answer comes to his lips, he doesn't dare to say it.

He wanted to say in his heart that it was because of the shopkeeper's tendency to become inflammatory...... But this is the Hong family's library, and he is still studying in the Hong family's academy, once he says this, will he have to offend the Hong family?

However, in this Mao County, he offended the Hong family, should he continue to study in the Hong family's academy?

On the side, the shopkeeper touched his nose, but he was noncommittal to these words, in his eyes, isn't that the case?

At this time, Zhiyan and Gu Xian also came back to their senses and understood that Gu Baoying was fighting for the fourth master.

Then Assunden looked at her with admiration with a look at the "hero".

Jin Siye's eyes overflowed with a touch of warmth.

He doesn't care about things, but the little girl is more serious, but this feeling of someone being more real for himself is really good.

Gu Xian glanced at his little sister with a smile in his eyes and gave her an approving look.

He saw that this student was dressed in brocade clothes, and he looked clear-eyed, and he was polite and polite to Bao Ying, thinking that he was not a wicked person, so he stepped forward slowly in line with the principle of leniency with others, and apologized to this student: "I'm sorry, brother, my sister is still young, and there is something inappropriate in her speech, so I hope that Brother Tai will take care of me more." ”

Zhiyan also walked over, but stood behind Gu Baoying in a few steps, without saying a word, but his tall body guarded her silently.

As soon as the student came back to his senses, he caught a glimpse of Gu Xian walking over, obviously unable to walk on his legs, as if he had immediately found some kind of sharp weapon to maintain his dignity.

His expression perked up, and when he pointed to his legs, he sneered loudly: "Today is an eye-opener for me, this place full of sage books, those who open the Goulan Courtyard Gambling House can enter, and it seems that you and other wastes with problems with your legs can also enter, do you think that just by you, you can still participate in the scientific examination?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhiyan and Baoying's faces changed!

"Brother Tai ......" Gu Xian was stunned for a moment, it was not that he suffered any blow because of this, after all, he had heard many ugly words than this, but he didn't expect that this person was so arrogant and didn't appreciate the favor at all!

At this time, Gu Baoying glanced at the book in the student's hand, and stood forward: "I said you, you don't look young, a few years older than my brothers, right?" Still reading the Pentateuch? The two elder brothers in my family have already finished reading the 24 histories and the 100 schools of thought, and they have already begun to write poems and articles. ”

Her voice had a soft and glutinous Jiangnan flavor, but there was a touch of disdain on her pretty little face.

As soon as these words came out, there was a slight burst of laughter in the library.
