Chapter 80

If it were in the past, Wang Gai would definitely not refuse.

But today.

Wang Gai shook his head with a smile and said: "There are beautiful girls waiting at home, I am afraid I cannot accept Ziqin's invitation today."

"Oh?"

Guo Li raised his eyebrows and said: "I have also seen the dancing girls in your house, Brother Wang, but there are no particularly outstanding choices."

"These beautiful girls of mine were collected over half a year, and they have only learned their dance moves today after half a year of study."

"How can this not catch your eye, Brother Wang?"

Noble families compare family status, knowledge, official position, and power.

And these young masters of noble families naturally compare as well.

Comparing beautiful girls, comparing mounts, comparing carriages......

Comparing and competing with each other, discussing victory and defeat.

Today, Guo Li used the dancing girls he had prepared for half a year to show off in front of his friends.

But Wang Gai's words made Guo Li lose face.

He had prepared the dancing girls for half a year, and Wang Gai didn't like them.

If this isn't losing face, what is?

That's why Guo Li asked this question.

Wang Gai shook his head with a smile and held up his wine goblet: "This girl...... should only be in heaven."

"Falling into the mortal world to my house, haha!"

"Compared to these dancing girls of Brother Guo, they are just vulgar powder, just vulgar powder!"

Wang Gai said this, and Guo Li became even more unhappy.

It would be fine if you didn't like my dancing girls.

But you also made sarcastic remarks.

Guo Li, who had lost face, turned black instantly.

The atmosphere in the room changed instantly.

The young masters who were drinking and enjoying the singing and dancing also stopped raising their cups and looked at Guo Li and Wang Gai.

"Brother Wang." Guo Li's face was a bit unhappy, but he still endured it.

With a cold smile, he said: "Brother Wang, it's not like everyone here hasn't been to your house."

"We have already appreciated those dancing girls."

"There are no beautiful maids, they are all just vulgar powder."

"And they are not young anymore."

"Could it be that Brother Wang has found some new dancing girls?"

"If there really are, why not call them out to see?"

Guo Li's meaning was already very clear.

That is to say, you, Wang Gai, are bragging.

Wang Gai was confident.

Troupe Leader Zhang had already gone in the morning. If he followed the time and distance, he should be back by now.

"Naturally there are, otherwise how would I dare to brag!"

Saying this, Wang Gai reached into his bosom and took out a painting.

Swish!

Wang Gai unfolded the painting in his hand.

It was the painting of Diaochan carrying water.

Wang Gai said proudly: "The girl in this painting is now in my house."

"It was just found for me by the troupe leader of my family's music and dance troupe."

"This girl is named Diaochan."

"She is many times more beautiful than in this painting."

Wang Gai said while showing it to everyone.

It must be said that the painter's technique was very good, outlining the clarity between Diaochan's beautiful eyes and the hidden charm very vividly.

Although Diaochan was dressed simply in the painting, she had a different kind of beauty.

These young masters were used to seeing beauties in brocade and silk.

Seeing such a simple Diaochan all of a sudden, they all felt their eyes light up.

Guo Li naturally saw it too.

It's just that now Wang Gai had ruined his face, so he naturally couldn't follow Wang Gai's wishes.

So he laughed and said: "Brother Wang."

"Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. Since there is such a beautiful girl, if we don't see her, how do we know if it's true or false?" Guo Li said.

The meaning of this is to mock Wang Gai for bragging.

Wang Gai smiled slightly and didn't get angry, putting away the painting in his hand.

"A country girl, a country girl, she is not yet ready for the elegant hall."

"How about this, ten days, after ten days, wait for her to learn some dance moves, and I will invite you all to be guests in my house and see her beauty."

"But today, forget it."

"Brother Guo."

Wang Gai bowed to Guo Li and said: "Brother Guo, I will take my leave today. We will gather in my mansion ten days later."

"I will definitely let Brother Guo have a good look then."

After speaking, Wang Gai turned around gracefully and walked toward the outside.

Leaving only Guo Li sitting in his original seat with an unhappy expression.

Wang Mansion.

After Wang Gai returned home by carriage, he couldn't wait to walk through the gate and cross the corridors of the mansion.

As it happened, Troupe Leader Zhang had also just arrived at the mansion, wanting to inform Wang Gai about what he had encountered in Wu Village.

So he was just waiting in the main hall.

"Where is the person?"

After Wang Gai saw Troupe Leader Zhang, he asked immediately: "Didn't you say you were going to Wu Village to bring back the girl named Diaochan?"

"Where is she?"

Wang Gai asked while looking around Troupe Leader Zhang and the main hall, but didn't find anyone.

Troupe Leader Zhang knelt on the ground with a thud.

"Young Master, I failed to do the job well, please punish me."

Wang Gai's brows furrowed immediately.

Then he asked with a frown: "What do you mean, you didn't bring the person back?"

Troupe Leader Zhang lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Wang Gai, then nodded and told the story of what he encountered in Wu Village one by one.

"Young Master, it's not that I didn't want to bring Diaochan back."

"It's really because there was a reason."

"This afternoon......"

Troupe Leader Zhang described the process of the matter vividly.

Wang Gai listened from beginning to end.

"You mean that the girl named Diaochan is already married?"

"Her husband is named Duan Yu, and he is likely a child of a big clan?"

Wang Gai asked with a frown.

Troupe Leader Zhang nodded and said: "That Duan Yu's speech and style of doing things are definitely not those of an ordinary villager. The most important thing is that he also knows the Master's name and knows where the Master is currently serving."

"I didn't dare to mess around, so I was forced to be helpless."

Wang Gai gritted his teeth.
