"Mr. Li! I was negligent just now. I have been busy with work these two days and I have not disciplined the servants at home. Please forgive me, Mr. Li." Ma Youcai, who was sitting at the main seat, picked up the golden wine glass and toasted to Li Qingshan.

"Master Ma, you don't have to be like this. I wonder why you invited me and three students here?"

"This..." Ma Youcai paused and said with a smile: "I have long heard that there is a young gentleman in Zhixing School who is very knowledgeable and writes like a famous scholar."

"My two sons are also scholars. They have mentioned many times that they want to meet the students from Kawai County... Therefore, I sent someone to send invitations to you and several students. I hope you won't think too much about it."

"Yes." Li Qingshan nodded, picked up a piece of braised pork with chopsticks and brought it to the little red horse's mouth.

The little red horse sitting next to Li Qingshan swallowed the braised pork in one gulp and chewed it with satisfaction.

Seeing this scene, Ma Youcai's mouth twitched, but he didn't say anything.

He is worthy of being a businessman who can make his family business bigger. He is also very good at talking nonsense to people and ghosts.

It's a personal essence!

Seeing that his majesty was not successful, he personally ran out and took Li Qingshan and his party into the banquet hall.

The servant who was knocked away by the little red horse, Ma Youcai, didn't even look at him, as if nothing happened.

Right now, there are only eight people sitting at the main table.

Sitting in the main seat was Ma Youcai. This man was well-dressed, of medium height, with uncanny eyes, and he looked shrewd from the inside out.

To the left of Ma Youcai is Li Qingshan, his three students and the little red horse.

On the right is Mrs. Ma and his two sons.

Seeing that Ma Youcai still didn't want to get to the point, Li Qingshan greeted the three students to eat.

The food in this mansion is many times better than the food outside.

All kinds of precious seafood, abalone, shark's fin, lobster... This table of rice is estimated to eat up an ordinary family's income for nearly ten years.

The two female students seemed to have little appetite. They ate very little and basically sat there quietly.

Seeing this situation, Li Qingshan didn't pay much attention.

Zhang Dong, on the other hand, felt rude when he ate it. Although he wasn't gobbling it down, it still seemed like he hadn't had a full meal in several days.

Li Qingshan was not very interested in these seafood, but the little red horse ate it with gusto. However, every time he fed the little red horse, he would first put it into the bowl with his own chopsticks, and then feed it to the little red horse with another pair of chopsticks.

Horse's.

No matter what the other party's intentions are, basic etiquette must still be maintained.

"Mr. Li, let me offer you a toast." Mrs. Ma held up the wine glass and toasted to Li Qingshan. After covering her face and drinking, she smiled and said: "My two sons are not bad in talent. I wonder if they can also come to Zhixing Academy."

Studying?"

Let's get to the point... Li Qingshan picked up the wine glass and drank it all, and smiled: "Your two young masters look like people who have read a lot of poetry and books. Zhixing Academy probably has nothing to teach them."

"Hey! That's wrong!" Mrs. Ma picked up the wine bottle in front of her and walked to Li Qingshan's side. When she poured wine for him, the white snow on her chest rippled slightly.

"If Mr. Li is willing to accept the dog, our master will definitely not treat you badly."

At the right time, Ma Youcai laughed and said: "Yes, if Mr. Li can teach dogs to read, I am willing to fund and build the Zhixing School in the best location in Chuanhe County. In addition, I will subsidize the school fifty taels of silver every month to support the school."

Daily expenses!”

The cost of building a school is fifty taels per month, which seems like a lot of money, but in fact it is only fifty taels, which Ma Youcai cannot recoup.

After all, the land deed and house deed of the school are the big deal, and Ma Wealthy would not give these to Li Qingshan.

"No need! Our current school is very good!" The hot-tempered Xiaoyao'er frowned, her childish voice slightly irritable.

The reason for such a big reaction was that she felt that the conditions offered by Ma Youcai were too tempting, and she was afraid that Li Qingshan would agree.

She was not afraid that her place to study in Qianshan County would be gone, but that Qiao Xi and Zhang Dong would lose their chance.

In her opinion, Josh is an orphan and is the best at studying. She should go out of the mountains to see where there is a broader stage for her to fly... As for Zhang Dong, although he didn't say it, Xiao Xiao

Yao'er knew that Zhang Dong's other purpose of going to Qianshan County to study was to meet his father whom he had not seen for a long time...

"Little girl, why are you talking to my father?" Ma Baokun, the eldest son of the Ma family, stood up and looked at Xiaoyao'er with contempt.

Although this boy is actually fifteen years old, he is already taller than his father. When he stands up, he looks like an adult.

Xiaoyao'er was silent for a few seconds. With her eyes red, she threw herself into Li Qingshan's arms and choked: "Sir, he is cruel to me..."

Xiao Nizi is quite good at pretending... Li Qingshan patted Xiaoyao'er's back: "It's okay, sir."

"Bao Kun! You are so presumptuous!"

"Immediately apologize to this little sister!"

Ma Youcai pretended to be angry and scolded him.

"Haha... you're a wild girl in the mountains, it's better if you don't hit her!"

"You kid!" Ma Youcai stood up suddenly, preparing to fight.

Bang!

There was a sound of breaking plates.

Zhang Dong held the broken porcelain piece and pointed at Ma Baokun coldly: "Say it again."

"Yo!"

"Come on, come on! Come over and stab me!"

"Here comes someone!"

Seeing that the other party wanted to take action, Ma Baokun laughed arrogantly and clapped his hands immediately!

The next moment, a dozen servants with fierce eyes rushed out from all directions and surrounded Li Qingshan and the others.

"Zhang Dong, put down the porcelain... I hurt my hand and it's hard to hold a pen." Li Qingshan's tone was extremely calm, as if he didn't even notice the tense atmosphere at the moment.

Zhang Dong listened to Li Qingshan's words and immediately put down the porcelain pieces.

"Hey! Are you scared?" Ma Baokun waved his fist: "Don't stand up for others if you don't have the guts, it's easy to knock out your teeth and swallow it in your stomach!"

Hearing this, Zhang Dong clenched his fists, and his body could not help but tremble slightly because of his anger.

"Such vulgar people are not worthy of joining our Zhixing School." A cold voice sounded.

It turned out that Josh couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to stand up for his partners.

Ma Youcai, who had been watching with cold eyes, became more enthusiastic at this time: "How impudent! What are you doing out here! Who told you to listen to this brat?"

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen servants dispersed.

Seeing that his father was angry, Ma Baokun sat back down.

"Mr. Li, my eldest son has a hot temper. You have a lot of people, so don't be surprised." Mrs. Ma also said something.

"It doesn't matter, my students are also rude... We know that the two young masters in your mansion are too small to accommodate... If nothing happens, I will thank Master Ma today.

, Mrs. Ma hosted a banquet in honor of you."

After saying that, Li Qingshan picked up Xiaoyao'er, who was still feeling "wronged", and walked towards the door.

Qiao Xi, Zhang Dong, and Little Red Horse all got up and followed.

boom!
