Chapter 79: Speak the Holy Word (1)

Wei Duo seemed to have forgotten his identity as a businessman and spoke endlessly, obviously very proud.

Some people are proud, others are dissatisfied.

Mr. Huang was not very satisfied: "When did the businessman dare to call himself me in front of me? He was so big that he had no rank and inferiority at all. This style must not be long. If this continues, how can I highlight my status as a scholar?"

Thinking of this, Mr. Huang put the chopsticks in his hand and said seriously: "Everything is inferior, but only reading is high. This is the eternal truth. Xiao Wei, you should pay attention to your own identity when speaking and doing things."

Wei Duo was stunned, then woke up, then bowed and said in disappointment: "Master Huang, you are so happy that you forget that you are a slut. Please forgive me, Mr. Huang."

When Mr. Huang saw that Wei Duo was knocked back to his original form, he felt proud and waved his hand generously: "It's okay, pay attention to it in the future. Go and do it."

Wei Duo blushed and retreated.

Everyone in the store heard the conversation between the two.

On a table to the east of Mr. Huang, two young men sat, one wearing a square scarf of Confucian scholars, a white robe, with a handsome face, and looked very calm, the other was heroic, with two big eyes, just like talking. Although this person was wearing men's clothes, when he saw the proud bulge on his chest, he knew that this person must be dressed as a man.

These two people were Zhu Youlang and Dai Yilan disguised themselves. Bai Xing led three guards to have dinner at another table and secretly defended them.

The two were eating Longkanji in small mouthfuls. When they heard Mr. Huang’s conversation, Zhu Youlang had no expression. Dai Yilan stopped doing it and said to himself: “How dare this old man fight against the emperor secretly?”

Just as I was about to yell, I couldn't find a suitable word. At this moment, I suddenly heard another crisp female voice sounding in the west. When I looked up, I saw two girls, one in red and the other in green.

The girl in red has bright eyes, her eyebrows and nose are clever, and her cheeks are slightly vortex. She has a jade bracelet on her right wrist. She has a pure and pure shape and is obviously not an ordinary person.

The girl in green is wearing a double-ring bun, with beautiful eyebrows and eyes, a slightly fat round face, chubby cheeks, and a little baby-like appearance, showing a cute and cute look.

Dai Yilan saw that the two of them were masters and servants.

"Hi, old man, my lady is unhappy. Everything is inferior, but she is good at studying? Without Boss Wei doing business, where can you eat such a good Longkan glutinous rice ball?" The girl in green stood up and said loudly to Mr. Huang.

Mr. Huang didn't get up or answer, and he didn't even look at the girl in green. He just bowed to the girl in red, and continued to eat his Dragon Kan glutinous rice balls.

"Hey, old man, why don't you speak? Is it reasonable?" the woman in green asked relentlessly.

"Reason? How could you, a little maid, care about the words of the saint?" Mr. Huang looked at the girl in green with cold eyes, with a strong sense of disdain.

"The words of a saint? Is Wang Zhu also a saint? Seeing the old man's outfit, he is also a scholar, how can he learn without thinking?" The girl in red saw it, curled her lips and asked in a cold voice.

Wang Zhu was a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty. He was able to write poetry at the age of nine and was known as a child prodigy. "Everything is inferior, but only reading is high" comes from the child prodigy poem he wrote.

He is a prodigy, but not a saint.

The "learning without thinking" used by a girl in red is exactly what Confucius said: "If you study without thinking, you will be confused."

Mr. Huang's face turned red by the words of the girl in red. In front of everyone, he felt that he was immersed in the saint's studies for many years. Could it be that a woman could question it? Thinking of this, a scholar's arrogance broke out, and then said harshly: "This lady, I am not pure in my studies, and I laugh at you when I see you. However, the saint said that a gentleman was like righteousness and a villain was like profit. If the emperor did not lack money, he would never give such a status to the merchant. This lady, the saint's words would not be wrong, right?"

"The saint's words mean the moral division between gentlemen and villains, but it does not mean that merchants are villains. Did the old man distort the saint's words? Besides, although the emperor introduced a new policy to encourage merchants to pay more taxes, he did not violate the saint's words nor harm the interests of scholars. I wonder why the old man made things difficult for the owner of a small matter? Isn't it too narrow-minded?" the girl in red retorted immediately.

The girl in red had a little mouth and spoke very quickly, which made Mr. Huang refute her indecent and brought the emperor out.

Mr. Huang's face was even worse when he was choked. Seeing the girl bringing the emperor out to suppress him, he didn't dare to criticize him on such occasions.

But the anger hit him up. If he couldn't get out of this anger, he would doubt whether he would be pissed to death on the bed after he returned home.

"I dare not argue with the new policy of the emperor. However, the lady advocates saints so much, so I want to ask for advice. The saints say that only women and villains are difficult to raise. I wonder if you have heard of it? I wonder what explanation is?"

"You!" The girl in red did not expect that the old man was so hateful and could not refute her. She actually brought out the words of the saint to describe herself as a villain.

But she just read the Analects of Confucius roughly, and did not know the saint's subtle meaning and did not know how to fight back. She was so angry that she was so angry that her eyebrows were raised, her almond eyes were wide open, and her cherry mouth was trembling, but she couldn't speak.

"What do you think? You are so young that you don't follow the boudoir's wife, so you actually ran to the public to argue with others. I think your father and brother don't know, so today I will teach you a lesson on your elders." Mr. Huang felt very happy and finally got angry. Since you are angry, then you will be angry again. Out of this kind of mentality, he said ignorantly.

When he heard this, not only did the girl in red stop doing it, Zhu Youlang couldn't help but get angry: "You said you are an old man, why are you competing with a little girl? You really disrespectful to the old man!"

After the "Dawn Meeting" today, he took Alan to the military weapon camp to see if there were any new results in the research of Yao Desan and Zhang Nianbao, and then gave a few more suggestions. When he passed by this small shop, Bai Xing said that the Longkan glutinous rice balls in this small shop were very delicious. He was greedy and also became interested in what Longkan glutinous rice balls. What is Longkan glutinous rice balls? I haven't heard of them in my previous life? As a veteran foodie, when I came across an unknown snack, of course I had to try them. So he took Alan to the small shop.

When I entered the store, I was very happy. What about Longkan Ci? Isn’t it the famous Guangzhou rice noodle in the later generations? It turned out that this name was called Longkan Ci in the Ming Dynasty.

Later, he could hear the conversation between Wei Duo and Mr. Huang clearly, but he didn't take it seriously. The new policy he introduced would definitely make merchants excited and also make the gentry feel sad. This is expected, so there is no need to make a fuss.

But when this old guy talked about the new policy, he was repeatedly dissatisfied and even distorted the holy words to destroy the new policy.
