Xiao Qing's tone was flat, his voice was crisp, and he seemed to be gentle and powerful, forcing the smile on Taishi He's face to stiffen for a moment.

This wild woman in the mountain village is talking about him indirectly, deliberately raising her so high, wanting the officials behind to hear that he is determined to embarrass Zhang Lao, who gave the official?

Ah Yan stood behind her, and couldn't help but give her a thumbs up, the shopkeeper said this too much to the face of Master He, a woman was carried higher than the prince by him, what do Master He and Grandpa Guo want to do at tonight's banquet? There are so many officials, he is not afraid that tomorrow morning will be ginseng, saying that they deliberately praise Zhang Lao's disciples, Zhang Lao is rigorous, and he is rarely caught in the wrong place in virtue, He Taishi and Grandpa Guo are doing this, it is nothing more than smearing Zhang Lao, the speech officials are all Zhang Lao's students, and they are not deliberately slandering Zhang Lao by doing this in front of them?

Taishi He's expression was stiff for just a moment, and for a moment, he smiled politely: "Although you are not as noble as the prince, you are the most famous person here, most of the students of Professor Zhang are here tonight, they want to see at first glance who Taifu Zhang's closed disciples are, you, don't say those frightened words, come and get to know your senior brothers more, and when you come to Beijing in the future, you can walk around with them more, and I have done a good thing." ”

This group of rotten Confucians only know the friendship of the same family, what do they know about dignity and dishonor? Now looking at the eyes of this group of rotten people looking at Xiao Qing, he still doesn't know what they think?

In addition to disciplining the Guozijian and his own students, Zhang Lao rarely accepts disciples, this group of rotten Confucians not only respect the teacher, but also very obedient, naturally pay special attention to the closed disciple accepted by the teacher, who can become Zhang Lao's closed disciple, the character and talent must not be lower than them.

When they learned that it was a woman, they were confused and couldn't believe it, they heard that this woman had a good hand, and she monopolized one of Zhang Lao's closed disciples, and they were still not convinced, although they didn't dare to doubt Zhang Lao's approach, but in their hearts, this woman had to pass their pass before they were convinced.

Xiao Qing smiled and said nothing, who didn't know that Zhang Lao was happy and pure, and he was happy to celebrate the holidays, but whenever his students went to his house to give gifts and sit, he was turned away, he didn't like to socialize, if she listened to Master He's words and tasted the contact with this group of people, she would be kicked out of his door by Zhang Jiuri within a month.

Taishi He followed outside the door, and Grandpa Guo picked her up in the main hall, and when he saw Xiao Qing arrive, he greeted him with a smile.

"Here? Inside please, inside please! Xingguo Gong made a gesture of please.

Xiao Qing glanced at the furnishings in the main room, seven or eight long tables, surrounded by two rectangular tables several zhang long, and two small rectangular tables near the two walls.

He Taishi and Xingguo Gong were left and right, wanting to lead Xiao Qing to the main seat.

Xiao Qing followed the two of them slowly, the more she walked into the main hall, the darker her face became, if she dared to sit on that main seat, tomorrow the major shops and wine shops in Beijing would scold her to the end, and there would be a wave of regional blackness and lowly peasant women who could not be elegant.

The two adults obviously wanted to put her on the grill to roast her, and the more they held her high, the more embarrassed she became, and she was embarrassed by several layers of skin, and as long as the food was served, the only face she had left was reinforced concrete.

"Master He, let me sit here!"

Xiao Qing felt that she couldn't move forward, so she found a position near the door, and quickly sat down, which happened to be the end of the long table, which was both in line with her identity and inconspicuous.

Xingguo Gong Lu Jing came over and persuaded: "Xiao Xuexue, can't you sit here, you sit here, you let your senior brothers sit there?" ”

Xiao Qing smiled: "Grandpa Guo, the little woman is just a woman, and her status is low, it is already a God-given opportunity to sit with all the nobles, I think it is very inappropriate to sit here, if Grandpa Lu thinks that I can't sit here, then the little woman can only go outside!" ”

As she spoke, she lifted her placket and was about to walk to the door.

There are too many focuses tonight, she is helpless, it is easy to be hated, since she is here, people have seen it, and it is necessary to avoid its edge.

"Hey, Disciple Xiao, look at you, you can't say half a sentence, just worship under Zhang Laomen, I can't say anything about you? Still angry and going out? I'm a host! Personally follow you into the door, if you want to go, tell me, so if you go, how will you protect Zhang Lao's reputation in the future? You have just begun to worship under the name of Zhang Lao, learn to be humble, don't be impulsive at every turn, and throw your sleeves and leave. Master He said loudly.

As Master He's voice rang out, these words spread to every corner of the hall and in everyone's ears, and everyone gathered around.

Xingguo Gong listened to Taishi He's angry expression, stepped forward and said: "Disciple Xiao, as a merchant, you can get into the eyes of Zhang Lao, it is already Zhang Lao's kindness, I and He Taishi have nothing wrong with you today, we, as court officials, put this big table for you today, you can leave, where do you put your fellow senior brother?" It's just that I just told you that you are a businessman, and you can't be a top position, you have to be the door in a fit of anger, and you have to leave, and your heart is too high. ”

The two sang and harmonized, talking about things that had never happened, as if they were real.

Xiao Qing frowned and stared at them, his eyes were clouded.

Suddenly, there was a voice of disbelief in my ears.

"Merchant?"

"She's a merchant?"

"Is it a woman or a merchant, what does the teacher like about her?"

"This woman's words are very good, I have been to Yaoshan and seen it with my own eyes, that word is indeed rare in the world! But she's a woman, she's from Yaoshan, and she's still a merchant, so that's ......"

"No matter how good the words are, it is also a married woman, just stay at home, how can you come here? What's more, he's still such a lowly person? ”

"It looks like the teacher is getting older!"

"The teacher accepts this kind of person as a closed disciple, what does the teacher want to do?"

For a while, the people in the main room focused all their attention on Xiao Qing's body, and the voices of discussion, questioning, and disgust followed.

Everyone avoided her, squinting at her, looking at her as if she was looking at a monster, I don't know what means she used to get into Zhang Lao's eyes.

Ah Chao watched everyone's words and malicious eyes come towards Xiao Qing like a wave of flood beasts.

He quietly stepped forward, pulled Xiao Qing behind him, and carefully guarded him.

Xiao Qing shook his head at him, his eyes were clear, and he didn't retreat, signaling that he didn't have to be in front of her.

She whispered, "You stand in my way, I can face them!" ”

Ah Lan's eyes lit up, and then he bent the corners of his mouth, gave her half of his body, and carefully sat down with a gesture of please, but a trace of distress flashed in his eyes.

This group of people!
