Among this group of people, there were a few who wanted to make fun of Xiao Guantang, but they failed to succeed.
Looking at Xiao Guantang's rosy face, the jealousy was about to corrode him.
He could only immediately divert everyone's attention and looked at Zhule, who had delivered the painting. He exclaimed in surprise, "I just thought this boy looked familiar. Upon closer inspection, isn't he an actor from a theater in the city? How did he become a servant of the Xiao family?"
Zhule didn't expect that everyone was having a great time one moment, but someone suddenly mentioned him the next moment.
He immediately lowered his head.
When Xiao Guantang heard the word "actor", he became a little concerned and asked, "Did you buy it from my seventh brother?"
"Yes, Third Young Master. Seventh Young Master is in need of an errand boy. He thought I was nimble and quick, so he asked me to do some rough work." Zhule replied quickly.
Xiao Guantang nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
But he didn't ask, but someone laughed and said, "What kind of rough work does an actor like this have to do? Although Xiao Qilangjun is generous and values ​​brotherhood, this hobby is a little unusual. Even if he really likes this beautiful voice, he should find a woman. What's the point of having a man by his side?"
The person who was speaking had a good relationship with Hang Lixing in the past.
But now Hang Lixing's honors have been stripped away, and he has been expelled from the academy, and he has been implicated in many ways.
I felt depressed and it was hard to vent my anger. Seeing Xiao Guantang was doing so smoothly, how could I feel comfortable?
"This is my Xiao family's business, it's none of your business." Xiao Guantang said more bluntly now. "Speaking of which, you used to go out with Hang Lixing. Could it be that you two are birds of the same feather?"
Master Nie blushed, "Don't talk nonsense! I, I've been to the government office and testified that he's not the same kind of person as me!"
"It is common to betray allies for the sake of future." Xiao Guantang was still aggressive.
"You are making things up. Those things were done by Hang Lixing and have nothing to do with me!" Master Nie panicked.
"If I were you, I should keep my head down and behave myself instead of asking what my seventh brother likes. You are jealous of my seventh brother's understanding and say some unpleasant words. I tolerate you this time, but you have seen this painting and watched the excitement. If there is nothing else, you should stay away. I don't want to defile the painting sent by my seventh brother." Xiao Guantang had a cold face and looked rude.
When other people thought of Hang Lixing, they felt disgusted and did not look at him in a good mood.
Young Master Nie was also panicked.
In the past, when Hang Lixing was around, he could still fight with Xiao Guantang, but he was afraid that it would never be possible in the future. He was disappointed, his face looked haggard, and he walked away from here in disgrace, his head hung low like a stray dog.
"The painting has been delivered. I'll take my leave now." Zhule didn't dare to stay any longer, for fear of causing trouble to the young master.
Xiao Guantang glanced at him and said, "Wait for me. I should go and thank my seventh brother."
After that, he put the picture away and placed it in a long box.
After dismissing everyone, he packed up briefly, took some things, and took the Xiao family's carriage back.
In the carriage, Xiao Guantang looked at Zhule carefully and found that although the man had a scar on his face, it could not hide his handsome appearance. He had soft and gentle eyebrows and eyes, a melodious voice, and a small bone structure. He was as beautiful as a woman.
"How old are you?" Xiao Guantang asked.
"To answer the Third Young Master, I am sixteen years old." Zhule felt panicked.
Prince Lu had asked him the same question before, and he was a little scared now.
