Wu Mingde didn't force Shao Yan when he saw that she really didn't want to go.
Gu Huai was worried that Doudou and Ma Jun had conflicts before, and that Ma Jun would take the opportunity to cause trouble for Doudou, so he did not recommend Doudou to attend the banquet.
However, Xie Yunjiao said that Ma Jun was a very face-conscious person and he would definitely not do anything excessive at the banquet.
Doudou's going there can actually help him build up his courage and become bolder.
Lian Jin also said that he would protect Doudou, and only then did Gu Huai agree.
Wu Mingde, Doudou and Lian Jin came to the Ma family together and found out that Ma Jun had invited other people to come alone, and only their invitation letter stated that they were coming with a companion.
If Wu Mingde really brought Shao Yan here, he would probably be ridiculed by others, either openly or secretly.
Perhaps it was destined that Shao Yan didn't like this kind of occasion, so she saved Wu Mingde from being ridiculed.
When Ma Jun saw Wu Mingde bringing his two children to the banquet, he was stunned for a moment, because he didn't expect Doudou to dare to come alone without his parents.
He originally wanted to take the opportunity to make fun of Doudou, saying that he was still not weaned.
Unfortunately, these people were not what he expected, so he had to make new arrangements.
"Are you still afraid that he won't make a fool of himself in my house?" Ma Jun snorted coldly and said to the servant beside him.
He first arranged the seats and asked everyone to sit down. He deliberately did not tell everyone where they should sit, because everyone had attended the banquet he hosted and was very clear about his seating arrangements.
I thought Wu Mingde and his friends were from humble backgrounds and therefore didn't know etiquette. They would just sit anywhere they wanted when they heard the word "sit down".
Unexpectedly, Wu Mingde and the other two remained completely clueless and just stood there waiting. Even after everyone was seated, they were still standing there.
"I thought that in a place like the Ma Mansion, someone would come to help arrange seats for us, but I didn't expect them to ignore us like this. Is it because of our status that Young Master Ma looks down on us?" Lian Jin said.
Lian Jin is smart, courageous, and speaks his mind.
After Xie Yunjiao's suggestion, he understood what Xie Yunjiao meant, so he said these words in front of Ma Jun.
Ma Jun's face darkened. He didn't expect that a little child could see through his thoughts.
He glanced at the servant beside him, and the servant immediately understood.
He hurriedly said, "It's my fault. I lost my composure when I was busy. Please come this way, gentlemen."
Everyone else had taken their seats, and the remaining seats were at the outermost part, close to the wind, and there was no heater nearby, so it was very cold.
However, Wu Mingde and the other two sat down as if nothing had happened.
"It's so cold."
Lian Jin suddenly said.
"Mr. Lian, this is the only seat available. We have tried our best, so..." The servant of the Ma family looked at Lian Jin, as if to say that it was good enough to have a seat for him, what else did he want.
"That's not the case. He thinks he is a high-ranking official. Should we give him the main seat? Really."
"You were the last one to take your seat, and you still have the nerve to blame others."
Others immediately started to deliberately speak ill of Lian Jin.
Normally, at such a young age, if Lian Jin was told such things, a thin-skinned person would have burst into tears.
Those who are thicker-skinned don’t know what to do anymore.
But Lian Jin acted calm and looked at everyone with a calm demeanor. "I just didn't expect you guys to enjoy drinking cold tea in such a cold weather. I'm sorry. It's so interesting! When I get back, I'll have to tell everyone that drinking cold tea in such cold weather is now a popular trend."
Although it is spring, it is still chilly. Even after the 15th, it is still cold.
If Lian Jin told others about the Ma family's hospitality, it would definitely be the Ma family that would be embarrassed.
Ma Jun's face changed and he asked his servants to quickly change the hot water for Wu Mingde and others.
Wu Mingde looked at Lian Jin with some guilt. He was obviously the senior brother, but he wanted his junior brother to speak for him. Damn it!
He sat silently in the wind, with his back straight, to help the children block the wind.
But strangely enough, he was wearing clothes that were sewn by his wife herself, with a few small pockets sewn inside. No one knew what was in them. It was a bit heavy, but the whole piece of clothes was warm and very comfortable.
Those people didn't see Wu Mingde and his companions making a fool of themselves, so they started discussing their academy again.
When he heard that they were from Yingtian Academy, he couldn't help but sneer at them.
"Didn't Yingtian Academy disband more than a decade ago? It was shabby and dilapidated, but it still had students?"
"They must be people who can't afford tuition and go to study somewhere randomly. I heard that students there don't have to pay tuition." Someone said.
These were all things Ma Jun had someone find out and he deliberately revealed to them.
The purpose is to give them an opportunity to laugh at Wu Mingde and others.
"I heard they only started school last year, but they've already signed up for this year's provincial exam. They're simply overestimating their abilities!"
Doudou felt that the man's voice was very familiar. He looked in the direction of the voice in surprise, and unexpectedly saw Gu An!
Gu An also saw Dou Dou, and their eyes met in the air.
Compared to the doubt in Doudou's eyes, Gu An was so determined.
No matter what, he would side with Ma Jun and his group and trample Doudou and the others into the mud.
"Doudou, what's going on?"
Noticing Doudou's confusion, Wu Mingde asked carefully.
"The person who just spoke is my third uncle, but our family has separated from him, and there is some friction between my parents and him." Doudou said with a frown.
He didn't expect to meet Gu An at this time, and he was helping Ma Jun deal with him.
"Some people are born poor and cannot show themselves in public. If it weren't for Mr. Ma's kindness, they wouldn't come here to embarrass themselves." Gu An said.
"You're wrong to say that. Don't you know who you are? When you insult others, please think twice and don't insult yourself too.
Moreover, there is no order in learning; the most accomplished are the teachers,” said Wu Mingde.
Ever since Wu Mingde married Shao Yan, he has been influenced by her and is no longer the blockhead who only knows how to read and knows nothing else.
Gu An didn't expect Wu Mingde to say that. His face turned blue and white and he couldn't say a word.
If Doudou said this, he could still teach Doudou a lesson and say that he didn't know the rules.
But the person who was speaking was Wu Mingde, so he didn't know what to say.
Gu An finally had the opportunity to come to such an occasion with his classmates in the academy, and he must not embarrass himself at this time.
He had to find another way to embarrass Doudou, Wu Mingde and others.
"Don't you have a lot of ideas?" The man beside Gu An glared at him, "If you hadn't said you had a lot of ideas, I wouldn't have let you come here.
Please don’t implicate me.”
"No, I will definitely teach those people a lesson!"
"That's better. Otherwise, if you want to come to this kind of occasion with me again in the future, no way!"
"Yes, yes, yes."
