Chapter 131
boy?What boy?With such an appearance and demeanor, how could he be a servant?

Hearing Gu Mingan's words, everyone was puzzled, and looked back and forth at Cheng Yan with puzzled expressions.

Gu Yunji's complexion darkened, ink waves rolled in his eyes, and his tone seemed to be gnashing his teeth: "I'm afraid Cousin Ming'an misread it. This is Cheng Yan, the friend I invited to class with you. You met yesterday."

"Oh——so it's him!" Gu Mingan suddenly realized, and spoke in a strange way, "It's not my fault, I remember that Cheng Yan was clearly wearing burlap clothes yesterday, and he looked poor. Today he suddenly changed his clothes, let me see I didn't recognize him, I thought it was some favored servant of yours, my eyesight is dull for a while, don't blame Cousin Yunji!"

As he said that, he glanced at Cheng Yan contemptuously, and said pointedly: "I heard from my grandfather that this Mr. Cheng's family is poor, and he has trouble studying, so I don't know where he got the money to make such expensive clothes? Speaking of which... the style of your clothes looks very familiar to me, it is somewhat similar to the one I wear, could it be..."

Hearing what Gu Mingan said, everyone compared the clothes on the two of them carefully, and found that they were indeed the same wide-sleeved robes, the same brocade fabric, and even the positions of the neckline patterns were similar, only the color and size were different from each other. There are some differences in other details.

Cheng Yan was temporarily added to the school to study, and the Gu family did not prepare his change of clothes in advance. The clothes on him were originally tailored by the Gu family for Gu Yunji. Fortunately, the two of them are close in stature, and he can wear Gu Yunji's size. Gu Kaiqi gave him two sets directly, so that he would not be looked down upon by others because of his clothes.

A family like the Songjiang Gu family has strong financial resources, and all the clothes of the whole family are custom-made at fixed clothing stores.

Gu Yunji and Gu Mingan are both young men, and there are only so many styles that suit them at the moment, and they are produced by the same shop, and the process of making and processing the clothes is the same, it is normal to have some similarities.

"Could it be what?" Gu Yunji sneered, seeing Gu Mingan like that, he knew that he wanted to make trouble again, "Then I also said that the clothes of Cheng Yan and cousin Huai Shao are also very similar, presumably they bought from the same clothing store Clothes, otherwise what else can it explain?"

After hearing the words, everyone looked at Gu Huaishao's clothes again, and found that it was indeed the case, and immediately felt that Gu Yunji was right.The clothes made by the same tailor shop are naturally somewhat similar, which is nothing unusual.

Gu Mingan slightly hooked the corners of his lips, and shook his fan nonchalantly: "Cousin Yunji doesn't know something, our Gu family's clothes are all tailor-made, ordinary people can't buy them. Mr. Cheng is wearing this set... I saw that the sleeves seem to be a little longer, so it shouldn't be my clothes, right?"

Gu Yunji and Cheng Yan's body and height are similar, but there is a difference in arm length, Gu Yunji's arms are a little longer, and his clothes naturally look baggy when worn on Cheng Yan's body, which doesn't fit well.

Just when everyone's eyes shifted to Cheng Yan's cuff, Gu Ming'an added in a desperate manner: "Two days ago, I heard from my grandfather that Yun Ji's cousin is coming to stay for a few months, so I have to prepare some money for him. Put on a change of clothes, but I think Yunji is still wearing old clothes today, so he won't give up the new clothes to Mr. Cheng, right?"

Gu Mingan bit the word "let" especially hard, as if he was saying that Cheng Yan was so poor that he didn't even have clothes to wear, and he needed someone else to let him go.

Sensing the probing gazes from around him, Cheng Yan's face turned pale, his fingers tucked under his sleeves trembled slightly, and he subconsciously hid his sleeves behind him to block everyone's sight.

When he got the clothes, Cheng Yan knew that they were not specially prepared for him, but on the one hand, he didn't want to take away Gu Kaiqi's good intentions, and on the other hand, he also wanted to avoid many potential troubles, so he accepted it obediently. , who would have thought that he would be stabbed by Gu Mingan in public, without giving him any face.

In fact, even if everyone knew that Cheng Yan was not wearing his own clothes, but the clothes prepared for him by the Gu family, it would be nothing, on the contrary, it would show that the Gu family was considerate in their hospitality.

However, Gu Mingan insisted on emphasizing that these were originally Gu Yunji's clothes, but later "give up" to Cheng Yan, and he said before that Cheng Yan's family was poor, and he was still wearing burlap clothes yesterday, as if the other party's luxurious appearance is completely It is pretended, but in fact the inside is dilapidated and dilapidated, and it is difficult to be elegant.

According to Gu Ming'an, Cheng Yan's action of hiding his sleeves at this moment fell into the eyes of the people around him, which became evidence of his guilty conscience.

For a moment, everyone looked at Cheng Yan with contempt and disdain.

Just now he asked Cheng Yan's name, Wu Qimo, who wanted to make friends with him, rolled his eyes unabashedly, and sneered silently in his heart: I pretended to be so similar before, I thought it was some noble family son, but it turned out to be a serial A poor boy who has to rely on others for his clothes, really think that he can change from a grass chicken to a phoenix by putting on a brocade coat?ridiculous!
The sarcasm and ridicule suppressed from all around fell into his ears, Cheng Yan's face turned blue and red, his fingers turned white, he was embarrassed and helpless.Seeing this, Gu Yunji's heart tightened, and he wanted to speak up to defend him, but he gently stopped him.

After a few deep breaths, Cheng Yan's face had returned to calm. He took a step forward calmly and looked directly at Gu Ming'an, with a clear voice:

"As the Second Master Gu said, the clothes on my body are indeed not my own, but gifted to me by the Fourth Master Gu. Cheng Yan's family is poor, and it is difficult to study. Today, I have the opportunity to be classmates with you young masters and listen to the teachings of the great Confucianism. It all depends on the Gu family's respect and willingness to support, Cheng Yan is extremely grateful."

"The kindness of the Gu family's support, Cheng Yan will never forget it, today I will thank the second young master Gu." After speaking, Cheng Yan turned his body to Gu Ming'an, and bowed deeply to him solemnly and sincerely.

Gu Mingan was caught off guard and stood there in a daze, not knowing how to react for a while.

He took the initiative to bring up this matter because he wanted to humiliate Cheng Yan's poor family and make him feel inferior. Who would have thought that the other party would admit it so openly, and he didn't seem ashamed of his background at all.

In just a few words, it made it clear that the clothes on his body were given by Gu Kaiqi on his own initiative, not "give up" by Gu Yunji; he also pointed out the fact that the Gu family supported him, and rationalized his behavior of appearing in the school.The words are sincere and the attitude is correct, so that people can't find any mistakes.

Cheng Yan's words and deeds were so open and natural that everyone couldn't help but give him a high look.In contrast, Gu Mingan seemed a little aggressive and narrow-minded.

Cheng Yan bowed upright and sincerely just now, his words were full of thanks to the Gu family, and he praised the Gu family's kindness to him to the fullest, even Gu Huaishao who was on the side blushed, and Gu Ming'an didn't respond because he didn't respond. Come here, to accept his gift so abruptly, it can be said that he has a very thick face.

Sensing everyone's strange gazes, Gu Mingan finally came back to his senses, and immediately stood up and didn't walk or leave, feeling that what he did was wrong, his face turned red in an instant.

Just when Gu Mingan was unable to get off the stage, someone suddenly pointed at the door and shouted: "Mr. Chen is here!"

Hearing that the respected Confucianist had arrived, everyone raised their heads and looked towards the door.

Seeing the familiar figure standing at the door, Gu Yunji and Cheng Yan were both startled, and their tone was very surprised: "Mr. Chen?"
