Liaozhai Great Sage

Thinking of this, the scholar froze in place for a moment, feeling heartbroken and envious.

Qingmei is a well-known headliner in the city. She is extremely beautiful and talented. I don’t know how many literati in the city have been fascinated. But who would have thought that such a woman would suddenly redeem herself and disappear into the city with her maid one day? It's over.

When we met again today, the master and servant who were so beautiful had already been reduced to wives.

"Hey, what a pity. This person is plainly dressed, ordinary-looking, and has nothing outstanding. I never thought that Miss Qingmei and Miss Xiaodie would commit themselves to such a person. It's a pity. This person is even inferior to Xiaosheng. In the future, Miss Qingmei and Miss Xiaodie may have to endure hardships, and it may be difficult to hear Miss Qingmei playing the piano again in the future."

The scholar sighed.

Simple clothes and plain looks?

Xiaodie looked at her young master's brocade robe and jade belt, his handsome appearance, and his slender figure, and couldn't help but blushed slightly, with a bit of shyness.

Look at this scholar again, the long gown is simple, his appearance...he is really ordinary, if he is not wearing a long gown, he might not be found in the crowd.

"Talk nonsense with your eyes open." Xiaodie spat in her heart.

Li Xiuyuan looked at the scholar with a little surprise at the moment, how much courage and confidence does this person have to say such a thing.

Is this how literati look down on each other?

This is no longer relative, this is self-hypnosis.

Chapter 1 Fifteen

Li Xiuyuan looked at this plain-looking scholar with a strange expression.

However, because the scholar pestered Xiaodie as soon as they met, he didn't like the scholar, but rather loathed him.

Obviously seeing that she is here, Xiaodie is also a famous woman with a master, how can she go past her master and greet her rashly.

As an ordinary person, I know this is against etiquette, let alone a scholar.

"Brother, if you stare at my family members like this again, I will get angry." Li Xiuyuan walked over and said calmly.

The scholar didn't seem to put Li Xiuyuan in his eyes at all, but shouted upstairs: "Young Master Chu, come and see, Miss Xiaodie is back."

"Oh. Which Xiaodie girl?" There was a light sigh from upstairs.

"It's Xiaodie, the girl next to Miss Qingmei." The scholar said again.

Green plum girl?

Hearing this, there was a commotion upstairs immediately. It seemed that many people were gathering upstairs. Hearing the scholar's words at this time, Qiqi immediately walked down from the upstairs. They were also scholars, so it should be this The students who participated in the hospital examination for the first time.

The leader is also a handsome man wearing a brocade suit and a jade belt around his waist. He is quite similar to Li Xiuyuan.

They are all disciples of rich families.

"Hey, it's really Miss Xiaodie." Some other scholars said in surprise.

Xiaodie was extremely nervous at this time, looked at these scholars, and then at her young master, but kept her head down obediently and did not speak, lest the more she talked, the more trouble she would cause.

Li Xiuyuan frowned slightly, looking at these scholars, he knew that these people must have seen brothels before.

After all, he knew that Qingmei was the number one brothel in the city.

Since she is the top card, there must be scholars who are pursuing and admiring her, so after these people recognize Xiaodie, they probably want to find Qingmei through Xiaodie.

It's just...Qing Mei has been buried in Lanruo Temple.

"Who is this brother?"

Not everyone focused their attention on Xiaodie. At this time, the leader Chu Gongzi also asked curiously when he saw Li Xiuyuan.

"Hmph, this person is the young master of the Li family in Guobei County. His surname is Li and his name is Xiuyuan. He is a son of a merchant." At this time, a dissatisfied voice sounded, but a scholar looked at him with hostility.

Li Xiuyuan patrolled and looked: "Hey, aren't you... aren't you the one who lived in Lanruo Temple for 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi?"

"That's right, it's me, 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, don't bully the young and poor, I didn't expect you to remember this." Ye Huai'an said.

"Of course I remember, but you can't talk nonsense, something will happen." Li Xiuyuan looked at him and said.

"Humph."

Ye Huai'an snorted again, his face was very ugly, the last time he met Qingmei in Lanruo Temple, he could have achieved good things, but he was interrupted by this person, and he even took her love away, this kind of grievance is not insignificant.

Young Master Chu smiled at this time: "It turns out that they are all acquaintances. That's just right. We were meeting upstairs just now, reciting poems. This Young Master Li is also a scholar. Why don't you do yourself a favor and go upstairs to get together?"

"Extremely extreme, meeting is fate, it is reasonable to invite Brother Li to join the party."

"They are all scholars, so we should communicate more, after all, this is also an elegant thing."

Other scholars also echoed the warm invitation.

Li Xiuyuan doesn't like these scholars. After all, there is Ye Huai'an, who has been in Hexi for 30 years, and there is also a scholar who likes self-hypnosis and is extremely confident in himself. It's better to stay far away.

"I appreciate your kindness, and I will buy a batch of pens, inks, papers and inkstones here so it is inconvenient to disturb your gathering." He evaded.

Mr. Chu laughed, grabbed Li Xiuyuan's hand, and said boldly: "You don't have to delay, the matter of pens, inks, papers and inkstones is a trivial matter, and I will ask my servants to prepare a good set of pens, inks, papers and inkstones for Li Xiuyuan to present to Li Xiuyuan." Brother, please be sure to honor me and give me face."

After speaking, he dragged Li Xiuyuan to the second floor; "Come on, come on, let's go upstairs and continue the topic just now."

"..." Li Xiuyuan looked at Mr. Chu with a strange expression.

But it's all for this sake, it's really hard for him to refuse, if someone warmly invites you, and this is all for this sake, you still have to give this face.

A group of scholars went upstairs talking and laughing again.

That Ye Huai'an looked at Li Xiuyuan coldly, obviously complaining in his heart, but he didn't say it clearly.

But feeling the eyes of this Ye Huai'an, Li Xiuyuan felt that the existence of this person really made his thoughts difficult to understand.

"Hey, Xiaodie, who is this Mr. Chu, do you know?"

When these scholars were gathering, Li Xiuyuan found a remote place and asked in a low voice.

Xiao Die also whispered softly; "This Mr. Chu is called Chu Tian. He is the second son of the Chu family in the city. He is very famous in Guobei City. I heard that he is capable of writing and martial arts, and is quite talented."

"Young master of the Chu family?" Li Xiuyuan's expression changed slightly.

He knows a thing or two about the Chu family in Guo Beicheng, they are local tycoons, and they have a lot of business contacts with his own Li family. Of course, this business is definitely not as big as his own Li family, but this Chu family is very good If you have power, you are above the officialdom.

There have been several officials in the family and ancestors.

"However, although this Chutian looks bold, he actually has a violent personality. He wanted to invite the young lady to play the piano in the Chu residence, but the young lady refused, so she made a big fuss in the brothel, and the servants of the Chu family even injured many of them. Little sister, Miss was so scared that she didn't show up for several days." Xiaodie said again.

Li Xiuyuan's eyes narrowed slightly: "Is there such a thing?"
